There is similar situation in Thailand. There everyone speaks English with an American accent. I can only think that they spend all their time learning English by watching films made in the USA. Some companies (the terrible Virgin Media being one) subcontract support to Asian countries and...

Maybe the Americans would benefit if they learnt to spell correctly? Always a constant irritation to the English.

If you had two totally separate tables how many fields would be different from one to the other? Add it, or them in to one of them and just use one table. Nothing wrong with a field that can only be "S" or "U".

I was never involved with QuickBooks, only SAGE, Pegasus, one other specialist system for construction. Plus a couple of CAD systems. But I avoided directly posting into any of them. Basically on the principle that if anything went wrong ( i.e. operator error being most likely) Then I'd have to...

In the mid 70s Kojak was on TV over here. Then there was one of those ludicrous police situations when they were all supposed to be working late because they loved their jobs, working hard and catching naughty people. Kojak turned to Stavros and said "hey Stavros, go and get some pizza" We are...

Exactly correct Doc! Reliably comes up with brilliant solutions but sometimes forgets, or omits. That's me:)

Not a bad summary of me actually.

For years Access has been software's perennial creaking gate. So many have claimed for so long that Access was dead. Although usually people who either didn't like Access, MS or had never used it. It's OK for prototyping is often said. Like someone has time to create a working system in one...

In the past I have used Access FE & BE on Terminal Server over four remote sites. But only with no more that 80 concurrent users

It appears that some leaders in Europe are patting themselves on the back. Presumably after seeing Starmer ingratiate himself by toadying up to DLT on TV with his invite from King Charles. Starmer was seen in the UK as an appeasing lackey and somewhat embarrassing. Is this sort of thing DLT's...

Following comments on some of her earlier dresses. Deputy PM asked mum to make her something else. She found some old curtains in the wash house and ran up this little number to impress at PM questions.

Whilst everyone tries to keep fit in body, according to new research by the UK Beer & Wine Lobby Group, alcohol fine tunes the brain. As you drink alcohol it will naturally kill off brain cells. During this process the weakest cells are obviously removed. Leaving only the strongest and best...

Apparently we are to have an enquiry into the Pakistani abuse gangs which is to be able to compel officials and police to attend. By compel presumably Starmer the lawyer means they will compel all those except for those people who we'd prefer not to testify. Many presume it will be watered down...

See abebooks.co.uk - abebooks.com etc. You will find undamaged and perfectly good Access books at way less than new. It is a fact that many language books aren't actually read cover to cover. Pick up a few at little cost. Don't buy any with less than 800 pages because they will probably not...

Hey Doc, fortunately the title of this does include for a worst joke. So 10/10 on that:)

warning strong language!

Small companies react quickly, or not at all. More often not at all. If he doesn't need it then then forget it. If next month/year he has the need you'll receive a call. If he can find your number. In the days of posting flyers, you could expect 3 to 5 responses from each 100. A response isn't...

The USA had Biden as deputy, who then became leader. They say that what happens in the US, happens here five years later. What can we do to prevent history repeating itself? When Starmer is skiving off somewhere, this is who is in charge. Trouble is Starmer appears frightened of her. If Raynor...

They say; commeth the hour, commeth the man. But in the West all we can see are idealists, dreamers, fanatics and committees. As an example; Van de Leyen is the best that the whole of Europe, 27 countries and 450 million people, can come up with. Then we have Starmer and there are simply no...
