    What's your best/worst joke?

    Highway Star

    Certainly a lot of energy. I couldn't compare drummers but reminds me when John Lennon was asked about Ringo Starr's drumming skilled, he replied that there were plenty of better drummers and Ringo wasn't even the best drummer in the Beatles.

    The getting of the OP's business rules has been like drawing teeth. In formulation heats, I expect there will also be restrictions on gender, category (eg Under 16) and event type (eg 100m, 200m)

    Special Sort

    With the last example, instead of 5 heats of 8 and 1 heat of 4, wouldn't you prefer 4 heats of 7 and 2 heats of 8 Algorithm is divide number of contestants (C) by 8, round up to next whole number (N). Remainder (R) is N*8 - C Have R heats of 7 and (N-R) heats of 8

    Medical checkups

    I had a top and end checkup during the week - colonoscopy and gastroscopy. I've reached an age where medical advice is for routine checks - annually for gastroscopy and three yearly for colonoscopy. I've had polyps removed from both ends in the past. Preparation for the gastroscopy is easy -...

    formula to long?

    To me, a quarter (timewise) means a specific quarter of the year eg Q3 2021 or Q2 2022. Is the real question, the number of quarters between two dates. So if the start date was in Q3 2021 and end date was in Q2 2022, then the number of quarters would be 3

    VBA to create dynamic table - slow to run

    Instead of recreating the tables with the consequent bloat, you could try to change the field names. If this process is being done daily, there would only be one field to change name.

    .MER files

    I've not come across an .MER file before, certainly not in an Access context. From what I can determine by searching, an MER file is a complied MED file created by RSView, and has something to do with controlling factory software.

Because you have selected a number of fields in your query, each record that exists in the recordset would have the contents of the the fields selected in that recordset. For example, the first...

    Change Products Prices

    I now wish I had not used the example of yearly prices as a date range related price. I did come back to your example of a pricing table which defined for any date range, the price applicable. Negative returns can be handled by finding the price applicable to the order in the pricing table and...
