I have a comprehensive system written for structural fabrication that does just that. It controls manufacturing, finishes, delivery notes, labour costs, and drawing issue including revisions, approval and variation orders etc. Just not sure how I can pass it on as I'm retired and don't want to...

Years ago, back in the olden days speed was a real issue to me with Access. Then I read abut the permanent connection and it wasn't a problem from that day on. Windows97 was probably the first OS where database systems benefited (since C-DOS). Before that some thought that to pull a record 3 to...

I wonder what the primary object of this is. There is an easy foolproof solution to retaining and not losing your latest version of an Access application and that is called a sound backup system. A start would be maybe not keeping all of your backups in a drawer under the computer. Then advance...

AWF is no doubt just about the best advert that Microsoft has for Access. It is also I think the only main Access support site. Little doubt that it has taken over from buying books on the subject. It will provide the answer to anything that can and has been asked. Microsoft should be more...

Maybe this should be titled be careful watching BBC videos and reports? Hundreds a now complaining about bias in trans reporting: search for : bbc pro-trans bias damaged our children I have found the BBC biased in reporting anything to do with climate also. They protect and project the designer...

It is believed the ancient Picts that inhabited Scotland from the late Iron Age until the around the 10th century AD were black, as explained in a new history book for CHILDREN. It is believed by these crackpots that the ancient Picts who inhabited Scotland from the late Iron Age until the...

It does appear that after just a fortnight Pat has been forgotten and everyone has moved on!;)

From my experience I do not believe that to be correct. However, I can appreciate that once posted it can be difficult to remove. Which is different. Does a poster upload with the intention that it is copyright free? Is the post the poster's work or is it owned by someone else. Sections of code...

Ricky Gervais has a sideline making vodka and he creates his own adverts. This is one.

The general opinion is that a Carrington would not be a whole World event, or even whole America event. If it was World wide, you'd probably starve within a month when the food and water runs out. After the stores have been stripped of their food, those people with so called foresight and...

I am a little disappointed that Pat has had her forum posts regarding Access advice removed. Her opinions and advice over the years must have helped hundreds if not thousands of Access users. If everyone did that the forum would become insignificant. Additionally, I am surprised that postings...

I would think that if your generator was connected when a Carrington hit, then it would blow that as well. I considered a UPS but imagine that would blow with everything else. I wonder where you would be with insurance for replacements. Presume that if you asked your insurance company they'd say...

The same as any localised event, cyclone, earthquake etc. But little consolation to the people in New York if no other location was affected. It is a random and unpredictable event.

In a DOS box type HELP DIR and that will show all of the valid switches

I bought two TAPO cameras and hub which operate via a phone app. From memory I think they are C200 but can't check as I'm in Australia at the moment. They were less than £200 for both and are a well made product. Cameras are battery operated and need charging from time to time. They operate by...

I am staggered that people pay so much for doorbell cameras. Particularly as they are of little help or use year on year. I've fitted front and back security cameras but do not pay an annual fee but just save generally pointless data onto an SDcard in the Hub. Then every now and then format the...

It will also depend upon the application. If you are supporting an invoice, or sales order system then I suspect that a rapid fix will be the priority. Of course in your case it may well have been that your standard of work and ability was far higher that they could obtain from other regular...

From a business aspect. Why would any business rely on someone who is only available at weekends for their systems and support? But at weekends they maybe don't want to work, or have a tiny window. You make a change, it falls over, then they need to wait a whole week before it is fixed. Makes no...

We have a government, a King and a King's son pushing net zero so much it is almost persecution. But is it for a policy without any scientific proof of cause, or success? In general it is costing everyone £1,000 to £2,000 a year in hidden taxes on energy bills. There is a power station, DRAX...

The trouble is that the USA has no idea about the UK. Before you roll out the rubbish about "giving Northern Ireland back to Ireland" why not ask the people in NI what they want instead of telling them what is good for them? Ask many in NI what they are and they'll say they are British. This is...
