It's attached directly my network as are all the PCs via ethernet connection. No cloud usage.

Any advice (polite and anatomically possible) about a weird problem. On one of PCs my mapping to my NAS has suddenly failed and I can't re-map it, whereas the other PCs (One Win 10 and one Win 11) no problems. I can still see the NAS on the other PC using a UNC path. Given I normally use UNC...

What if this weren't a hyperthetical question? - is always the basis of a good critical thinking session.

You are never too old if you can do the job you are being paid for PROPERLY! Ten years after her retirement date and eight years after retiring my wife is back at work teaching German as no one can find German teachers. The money is great, if unexpected, boost to our retirement income.

A good author of readable books but he hardly invented conspiracy theory - Karl Popper is the earliest recorded user of the phrase. And as for conspiracy theory as a concept it's been around for ever. Witchcraft?

The quote I cling to is from the Burial Service in the book of common prayer (Psalm 90). " The days of our age are threescore years and ten; and though men be so strong that they come to fourscore years, yet is their strength then but labour and sorrow; so soon passeth it away, and we are...

Just not true - I have multiple versions running!

ANY is a predicate and works perfectly well. The reason you don't see it often is that it works practically the same as the IN predicate. The latter gained prominence because a number of early implementations of SQL (pre-SQL standards) did not include ANY.

A comment in passing. Access doesn't actually lock records but pages - not usually a problem but two or more small records may be using a single page in memory.

TempVars!XLA & "The Don McNair Herbarium Data Set.docx" as formatted is not a valid hyperlink.

The real reason it's not feasible/suitable for common usage is that its not what it was designed for. My son-in-law who is a ventilation engineer uses it all the time but he has 1) the real need for its facilities and 2) all the necessary paraphernalia such as flatbed printers etc to fully use...

Two points. It's not narrow as it is the only applicable law. Secondly the answer to your question is yes (unfortunately). A Gender Recognition Certificate costs £6 .

Just another example of (mainly by uneducated media) of the corruption of perfectly good words from ignorance or malice - like the word gender itself. Other example which irks me are that things in UK are regularly described as 'iconic' when the word itself really refers to resembling a...

Just to nit-pick the law isn't new - just the existing one clarified, so it's already in effect.

This is why openargs exists. I know people normally use it when opening forms but it is also part of the OpenReport parameters as well!

Must admit when I saw this thread I thought it was describing me! 👨‍🦼

As I read all these posts about 365 and Win 11 can anyone think of a real reason to 'upgrade'?

Because it's old it doesn't mean it doesn't work and isn't the best tool for the job. I regularly use DOS commands. Recently used .ini files as the simplest way to do multi user look-ups.

The trouble with man-splaining is that the most common cry I heard from females ( in my post retirement job doing admin in a school) was that "nobody has shown me how to do it!". An even bigger crime was to suggest that they read the manual!

In passing I am constantly amazed at just how good KitaYamas English is. Of course there will be misunderstanding on occaission - think just how easy it is for Brits and US posters to misunderstand each other and allegedly we both speak the same language!
