    Trying to find a 0.00 in list of numbers currency

    Not really clear of the relationship between the two tables - is one supposed to be a total of the other - and how does 0.00 act as a warning? What if there are no values in the table? You might want to investigate using the format property for the control? For numbers there are 4 states -...

    A simple HTML editor to work in the edge browser

    As I said, it is a basic editor and needs further development and that is one of the things that needs addressing - I simply asked chatgpt, it produced the code and it worked as is. I did so as a response in a thread asking about the 'dangers' of richtext. If someone want to copy the html code...

    Rich Text Format, yay or nay?

    It's certainly not Word, but it's fine for the basic formatting requirements. It would be nice if you could include images and tables, all depends on what you want to do. Alternative is to create in html and use the new edge web control which can be used on continuous forms - but really only for...

    Running DAO sql on Excel data

    So far as I am aware you cannot use DAO to update existing data in an excel table. In access you can update an excel table manually, but not by using sql. Never tried it from excel. Might help if you actually specified a table, including headers A quick search suggests using ADO might work...

    Using AI to speed up development

    You still need to know your code - I wanted to find a way to make the detail onPaint event conditional to reduce flicker every time a control was clicked on or the detail section was scrolled. AI told me it can't be done and suggested alternatives such as conditional formatting, UDF, etc. I...
