    My Country, Your country

    What do you base that on? Hopefully not an email that you received from one of your friends that said the PM of Australia was really tough against Muslims. That email that goes around that says "Check it out on Google, I did and it is true". Then when you research it, you find that it is in...

    Are you an atheist?

    I'm not sure what that means. You asked me for an interpretation of ambiguous text, so I read it and tried to derive what it could possibly mean. Do I claim it is correct? No. But that reinforces my point about everyone's perception being different. So, what was your answer to the...

    Are you an atheist?

    My interpretation of that verse would be that the writer believes there are places called "heavens" and that those heavens were connected to the earth. If this is earth as in the planet Earth, or simply dirt or land, as the term earth has been used is uncertain. My interpretation would...

    Are you an atheist?

    Sure. How do you know that men many years ago were not aware of some of these things? Add to that the fact that you are selectively interpreting the Qur'an so that it matches these things. If a book that you believed in, written a thousand years ago said "ye, words will pass through air and...

    Are you an atheist?

    Huh? That doesn't make any sense. All those blindly obedient believe this. If you cannot give an example of something that could occur that would prove to you that Islam is false, then your are blindly obedient.

    My Country, Your country

    You've got that right. A lot of Americans believe that they are safer if everyone has unlimited access to pistols and fully automated assault rifles. They're pretty sure that any day now our government is going to become tyrannical and we're going to have to take up arms against them. To be...

    Are you an atheist?

    I think even the people that answered #1 don't actually believe that. Its something to do with the way people read surveys or polls. They are so convinced that there is no god, that they didn't read the question as it is actually stated. They just wanted their opinion, i.e. no god, to be...

    calculate working week

    Making sure tables are set up correctly

    No, they do not need to be connected in this way. Any report that you want to run you would base on a query that pulls in tblEmp, tblOSHA, and tblEmployeeInfo. As tblEmp is related to both of the other tables, you can access the data needed. At that point, it is just a matter of setting the...

    Field from another Form

    Then you need to review your database design. By the name of the fields, Address, Phone, Web, it would seem that this is contact information of a sort. If so, it should be in some sort of a tblContacts, which would have a ContactIDPK field. Then whatever other table you have that is a part of...

    Field from another Form

    Review the record source of both forms, determine how they're related. If they're not related in any way (as you seem to be implying), then you're going to have a hard time doing what it is that you want to do.

    find record(s) from combo box

    The combo box wizard can guide you with that. Choose the 3rd option - "Find a record on my form based on the value I selected in my combo box".

    Population Control

    I definitely agree with the first part. Every time I hear about an oil company wanting to drill in some hazardous area, and the people that support it saying "we need lower prices on gas", I have to chuckle. We'd rather risk seriously injuring or destroying the local ecosystem than pay more...

    Making sure tables are set up correctly

    Attached is what I have come up with so far. As tblEmployeeInfo and tblOsha are both blank, I'm struggling a bit to determine their exact purpose. I have a feeling that tblEmployeeInfo could be condensed into tblEmp, but it could be that I am not understanding what you're trying to capture...

    Making sure tables are set up correctly

    Yes, exactly. With databases, its all about not giving up (and backups, and normalization, and, you get the idea :)) There have been times when I have been completely stumped, but then I take a break from it for a while, and that AHA moment hits.

    Making sure tables are set up correctly

    Okay, I will take a look, do some fixes, and post an update to this thread. Right, so you will have several different reports. One of which could be "active only", for example. You could do that. You could have a form pop up when you open a report, and that form would then supply...

    View who is in the DB

    With a split db, the back end is where the tables "live". Each front end has links to the back end tables. So each copy of the front end is accessing the same tables. If you import data from an excel sheet into a table via your copy of the front end, you're adding it to the actual table. So...

    Making sure tables are set up correctly

    Okay, 2 weeks is a good amount of time anyhow. I will definitely have some time over this weekend to help. Do you have a more recent version of your db that you want to upload, or is the one you provided a week ago or so still current? It is all in your perception. Tables should contain all...
