Seems like the real issue is you have something that isn't a number stored in a numeric data type.

I've never disabled the close operation (which I think might need more than just hiding the X - to handle shortcuts), but I do use a method in line with the nav/hidden form approach mentioned by several here to present users an "are you sure?" so they don't accidentally close and get frustrated...

This is in the Excel forum...

See the link in @Isaac's post for why I don't use integer for anything.

I guess I read "can be overridden" to mean at the invoice level. So that would just take the one field. When users want to override the due date, they directly or indirectly update days due to get the date they want. I am not sure I follow the idea of a separate table for this one attribute...

In line with above if you are going to store some additional value related to this, I'd make it the days allowed instead of the due date itself.

I was seeing the snow before. I just use Brave.

I don't see any snow or storm. :(

Why use a collection when there are dictionaries? I haven't been able to see the purpose of the former in a world containing the latter. Is that like folks who still declare variables as integers? Or am I missing something?

Thank you for the site. Really one of the best out there. Merry Christmas. 🎅

Interesting stuff there. If understanding your explanation of Oppenheimer correctly, it's not really that causality is a property of space-time but that it's a property of how we interpret space-time. So the question of First Cause isn't just irrelevant outside of (='before') space-time, but...

Why?

That assumes something outside the system. When concepts such as cause and effect are understood as properties of space-time itself, it becomes unnecessary and even meaningless to ask the question of what 'caused' the existence of our space-time.

My brother and I were chatting about Wheel of Fortune. He commented that if you could figure out how to program putting the puzzles together, you could make your own game. I noted that the programming would be relatively easy and that the real work is coming up with the puzzles - not slotting...

Well let's simplify a bit - a good requirement is a requirement that is useful for one thing and one thing only. Which is why there are so many different types of requirements depending on the intended audience, as you note in your second point #1.

I don't know if I can answer "as soon as" but I'll try to respond in a reasonable time frame.

@Isaac How do you define "good requirements"?

What you describe there is a business analyst. A smaller company may have the programmers handle both roles, but for those programmers who are just programmers, this could completely do away with their job. Even the ones doing double duty as BAs would find their roles drastically shrunken to...

I was thinking in similar terms to @ebs17 that the table possibly doesn't have the validation OP thinks it does and that the query process is responsible for the duplicates. It could be getting run multiple times or possibly the underlying query has some JOIN statements that are causing records...

It sounds like you were somewhat able to reproduce this(?) But just to add clarity because I don't recognize the screenprint you have with the 150% on it (being not familiar with W11), this is the setting I am referring to in W10: I believe there are several places where you can change...
