    How about displaying threads somewhere within a mile of the top of the page?

    The new google search box has made an already annoying situation completely ridiculous. No matter what page I go to, the first thread is about 80% of the way down the page. I have to scroll to see anything. Obnoxious! Why can't all this crap be in a side bar?

    Barcode Problem

    So you have to go to a website to generate the barcode each time? That seems unecessarily complicated. The solutions I have seen give you a module to import into your access project, with a function to call to generate the barcode whenever you want. Azalea even makes a free solution like...

    Barcode Problem

    I'm glad you found a solution that worked for you. I think i2of5 doesn't require a check digit anyway, and the generator should have taken care of the encoding for you, so you should be all set with that. Storing barcode images sounds like a strange way to do it - normally you would have your...

    Barcode Problem

    Well you use it just like any other font - apply it to your form or report or whereever you are using your barcode. However, most barcodes won't scan unless you use the proper special characters/encoding like I said before, so you need to look that up and use the right characters.

    Barcode Problem

    Don't have the link handy right now, but all you need is the .ttf or .otf file - put it in your fonts folder. If you installed a demo, it probably already did this for you. That's all you need.

    Question How to create a web based data enrty form in visual studio 2008

    Yep, that's how you do it. It is about 100 times more work than accomplishing the same thing with Access, but that's the web for you.

    Question How to create a web based data enrty form in visual studio 2008

    Well I don't really know what you are trying to accomplish, but in general on a web page, you would need to create input fields in a form. Then when the user submits the form, you do something with the values. If you are using ASP.NET, you could do<asp:textbox> fields, and then append the data...

    DreamWeaver Forms

    Have used both, Dreamweaver is WAY WAY easier for the simple stuff. It definitely has it's limits, but you can get a lot done really quickly.

    Barcode Problem

    Does the customer not require a specific barcode font? There are lots of different barcode fonts, and some of them are free. For instance, I just did a project with interleaved 2 of 5, which is free (google for it). Another one that comes to mind is barcode 3 of 5. Each barcode font...

    check out this awesome spam I just got

    Interestingly enough, the email did not come from the address listed in the email, it came from a really weird domain - Leslye.Gervasi@mba.wfu.edu I tried to google mba.wfu.edu but didn't come up with anything immediately.

    How does everyone handle different screen sizes?

    I don't think the hardware makes any difference, 1024x768 provides the same screen real estate regardless of the overall screen size.

    How does everyone handle different screen sizes?

    I just make every screen fit to 768x1024 so no-one has to scroll (unless they are on a tiny laptop or something). If their screen is bigger, it just means there is extra empty space.

    They don't. They expect to import them instead.

    Should Obama have got the Nobel Peace Prize?

    Are you smoking crack? If you have a college degree, you can't even GET a job right now in the US, much less one that pays well. Salaries may have been as high as you say back before the dot com bubble burst, but that was a long long time ago. Median earnings in U.S. is down around...

    Question Find common values in a many to many table

    Because that would be repeating groups = bad db design :) However, I just found a solution. Its funny how just describing a problem to someone else can make you think of something new. I created a crosstab query where the value = first of true/false, the row heading is entity B, and the...
