    Live to work? or Work to live?

    I'm not big on the whole daycare thing. When we had our first child my wife quit her job to stay at home, and while we've had to make sacrifices because of losing her pay, I wouldn't have it any other way. Many children in my daughter's class have 2 working parents. These kids have no idea of...

    Why Why Why Do Deleted Filters/OrderBys ReAppear

    My not be this issue, but I had something similar I delt with. In Win Vista (and I assume Win 7) if your database is in "Program Files" and you make any changes, it'll save those changes in the application data folder. Then when you go back to your database, boom all your changes have been...

    Send email when table is updated

    What do you have them use to approve/deny? Is it on a form that they specifically have to open/close? What I'd do, is check on form close whether your value has been updated or not, and generate the email on the form close. basically the same thing as doing on a button, just in a different...

    What's your best/worst joke?

    The Economy: The economy is so bad that... I got a pre-declined credit card in the mail. CEO's are now playing miniature golf. Exxon-Mobil laid off 25 Congressmen. I saw a Mormon with only one wife. I bought a toaster oven and my free gift was a bank. Angelina Jolie adopted a child from...

    Did I make a fool of myself

    I have to agree with dan-cat on this one. In my experience, employers who understand the job aren't worried about you actually being able to write functions then and there. They are worried about your ability to solve problems. Like I've always said, give me a choice between 100 code monkeys...

    SPAM or little mistakes?

    no, no it's not. My mother-in-law is constantly calling me about scam emails, at least 2-3 times a week.

    Post Traumatic Stress (PTS)

    My father-in-law has PTSD from his time spent in vietnam, and has in the past 5 or so years started to let us in on some of his experiences there. I really think for each individual what causes it could be different. For my father-in-law it was the actions he had to take while he was there, and...

    Has NASA found (potentially) extraterrestrial life?

    Actually, about the whole calling telepathy thing, I used to work for a list company, we had statistical numbers that basically went along these lines. If you make x number of cold calls a day, you'll make y number of actual contacts, and a z number of them will place an order with you. they...

    Has NASA found (potentially) extraterrestrial life?

    I've read this whole thread, and would like to ask a few questions. First: Can anyone point out to me an example of science disproving the bible? I won't take "There's no way in hell person x could have lived that long." as an answer, unless you have proof that they infact, did not live as...

    Possible database corruption

    the data itself "looks" ok. I can open the tables and access it. I'll check for any weird records in a few minutes. thinking about "upsizing" to a sql express db any pros/cons of doing that? edit: now the database won't actually let our vb.net app connect to it, we can only open in access.

    Best/Worst President

    I'm not sure you understood my statement. I'll explain, and hopefully you'll pick it up this time. I wasn't saying anything about race/sex/religion, hell I don't really care if the government is made up of one eyed, one horned, purple people eaters. I'm saying that our congress, no matter what...

    Best/Worst President

    as much as I'd like to bash every president there has been (a few might have been decent) the biggest problem with our government is our congress in general. the house and senate are a bunch of good ol' boys looking out for the good ol' boys and they don't give a hoot who they screw over in...

    Use of loop for adding more records to the table - Reg.

    I don't know if it matters, but I always did my For...Next loop starting at 0 and going up, and just added any numbers to the end of my field, so it'd be I = 0 For I = 0 To 3 .AddNew !fldVar("F" & I+1) = Me("txtF" & I+1) .Update Next I it'd be the same for whatever your field name is. again...
