    why is this place so republican?

    Following on Pat's response, I've not been a member here as long as some but I had actually observed most folks here (at least the politically vocal) to be libertarian. I've put that up to the nature of MS Office and VBA. These tend to be tools you have to figure out on your own, meaning the...

    The antidote to "no longer set"

    Shutting down a PC is less straightforward than finding the button to send an email after you have somehow already managed to find the email app, open it, create a new mail doc, write it up, give it a subject and address it to the intended recipient(s). At the same time, if such is a common...

    The Microsoft Access database engine does not recognize ‘rep……’ as a valid field name or expression

    Guess: the query underlying the report references that field OR a control on the report references the field. And the field doesn't exist. ABE: And there is no click or double-click event. OP just means opening the report from the nav pane.

    The antidote to "no longer set"

    Just read the comments and see I'm not alone in having spotted the issue more readily than the author. Someone really needs a new line of work.

    The antidote to "no longer set"

    Caught the double-click issue as soon as the article mentioned the file being highlighted. Was my first thought at that moment. The author takes the wrong lesson from this experience: The author should instead take this as a learning experience to use real words instead of jargon (ie...

    We Need Nuclear...

    In what way is the Ukraine war "fundamentally about resources"? For the rest, are you suggesting that if we no longer need to buy oil from some countries they're going to force us to anyway at the point of a warhead?

    Good Wired Keyboards for Productive Work?

    It seems the world's going to hell faster than I can leave it and the latest evil is the proliferation of wireless-only keyboard models. I have a wireless keyboard for controlling the PC hooked to my entertainment TV. But I don't need that to be anything special since it's just for occasional...

    The hazards of letting Pops mind the kids...

    But she left you with more cats than she started with. Isn't that like borrowing a car and bringing it back with more gas than it had when you took it?

    The UK is Scorchio!

    Well that's not too bad, then. Should be easy to keep comfortable absent health conditions or anything like that.

    Is this possible without 'Root'ing my Mobile?

    Even the watercooler area?

    Make Elizabeth the Last...

    Isn't the point to NOT fill the position... with anyone? As I understand, your monarch does close to nothing. What is she there for? So long as she's spending her own money on all the pageantry, fine, she's basically another type of celebrity. But I can feel folks' disgust to hear any of their...

    Button on Subforms - showing related records

    Where is your button and what action is it supposed to carry out?

    Button on Subforms - showing related records

    Yep. Can't do conditional formatting like that except to 'fake it' as you point out. I might have missed that on your first post. I think the OP is running into an issue trying to reference the subform as a subform from the subform, which doesn't work. He'll need to do the reference with a...

    Button on Subforms - showing related records

    I've used buttons on continuous forms many times. For continuous forms, Me.{whatever}should refer to the record currently selected.

    Muslims Rioting in Sweden

    Is this meant to be humor? A world in which people aren't allowed to criticize religion is a world of crusades, inquisitions, witch trials and all the other evils organized state-sponsored religions have visited on this earth in attempt to preserve their illegitimate rule over the masses.

    Twits Running Twitter

    If what Musk promises is true, it does seem good for free speech (disclaimer: I don't have a Twitter). As to Trump, I think he's said he wants nothing to do with Twitter. But he may well change his mind if given the chance. On the other hand, he does risk abandoning his other platform and then...
