    Google made it harder for external models to access the web's depth.

    Yes. If the content you consume from LLM is strictly technical, I guess it's fine.

    Google made it harder for external models to access the web's depth.

    That's the kind of dangers I'm warning about in my post: Don't get your news from LLMs. I will tell you why: Imagine a powerful entity, maybe a politician or maybe a very rich person. Let's say you saw that entity do something very wrong, but since they have power/money, they pay the most...

    Google made it harder for external models to access the web's depth.

    Out of curiosity: how is this affecting you in particular? Are you using the "search for me" tool from your AI tool a lot lately or what is going on exactly? Note: I suggest you people don't let an AI search for you unless you don't really care too much, you don't know what sources it will cite...

    AWF Slowing Down

    Sort of like the recent "Stop killing videogames" iniciative, where players are imploring AAA game dev firms to stop shutting down the servers that games need, when they think the games aren't profitable anymore. The initiative basically encourages these companies to open source their games...

    AWF Slowing Down

    @BlueSpruce This forum stands a much better chance of survival by staying niche, rather than diversifying in that way. That's because each of those themes already has its own communities, which are often available at the cost of a free sign up. I'd probably add a forum board to discuss...

    AWF Slowing Down

    @BlueSpruce Do you wanna turn this Access forum into something else? perhaps an AI "enhanced" forum? for what purpose?

    Google made it harder for external models to access the web's depth.

    If you google something, you can still see many pages of results, so Google shows your site regardless of this change. What I've seen reported is different. You see, SEO tools track how a site ranks in search results from Google. These tools were designed using a special parameter in the URL to...

    AWF Slowing Down

    1. Hosting competitions regularly 2. Rotating mods regularly 3. Welcoming new technologies 4. Community projects Things like 1 and 3 or 1 and 4 could be combined. These don't even require the site owner to be involved, but that would make things easier.

    Everyone should use AI

    Where are my posts in this thread? You guys sure love your censorship.

    Experience with Ms Project and Access?

    When I start developing in a VBA-enabled application, the first thing I do is check whether it includes a macro recorder. If it does, I use it to see what code gets generated for typical actions, and then adapt that code to fit my needs. If there's no macro recorder, or if I need to go beyond...

    AI cannot count letters

    🤷‍♂️ It does what it does, when it does, and vice versa.

    Remote desktop vs. browser based web apps.

    I don't know what's the deal with so many people here claiming web = slow, it's not 1995. No idea what sort of web app you've made that was slow, but they are not inherently slow.

    Re-design a wellworking data base

    Have you given any thoughts to the possibility of moving that application to a web environment?

    Form on form

    Assuming you have Activities, Opportunities and Rep Reports as tables or queries, 1. Create a continuous form for each of them, if you don't have them yet. Each form will have its own independent query. 2. Create a blank form 3. Add subforms to the blank form. a) You could drag the 3...

    Long subform behaviour

    Put this in a module: Public Declare PtrSafe Function SendMessage Lib "user32" Alias "SendMessageA" ( _ ByVal hwnd As LongPtr, _ ByVal wMsg As Long, _ ByVal wParam As LongPtr, _ ByVal lParam As LongPtr) As LongPtr And from your form: Private Sub Command10_Click()...

    Form on form

    Does that mean overlap? or maybe one next to the other? What is sloppy? the popup version? the side by side version? the overlapping version? What is it supposed to solve? Why 3 forms? Why exactly 3 and not more?

    Finding which queries use specific control from the main form

    I haven't confirmed, but I trust your word That's right. It wouldn't detect terms that are split across line breaks. The syntax you showed seems to have consistent character lengths, so I assume something could be programmed to work around that issue. Or, maybe, if one line ends with a quote...

    Hidden & little known features in VBA and the VBE

    1. Get the value and type of anything that is currently running by using the debugger: You don't even have to know the name of what you're looking for, everything is there for you to explore and start using right away, even undocumented stuff (a lot of stuff is undocumented). Avoid those pesky...

    Finding which queries use specific control from the main form

    Good catch, I didn't think about that scenario. The SaveAsText output does not split the lines on its own, though, according to a few tests I just did. So, I believe the scenario you're talking about would be entirely on the user. I mean, I would not write like this if I wanted to read it...
