Good Afternoon guys, I need to check what I am doing is OK: In one of my PC;s my hard disk is failing - long read/write times and funny noises. I have bought a replacement hard disk that is much bigger (500gb instead of 120gb). I was hoping to take an image of my HDisk and copy it to my new...

I understand - sorry I don'tn know a more secure way. We use the hide function for our databases...it is not full proof as some people may know to look there to unhide it - however it has been safe for us. It is possible to hide forms/tables/reports etc from certain users, when you put...

edited - sorry i just realised i have repeated what someone else typed.

well if you do that no one will be able to see it at all (unless they unhide it specifically). Unless your users need to fiddle with the database then the hide function should be enough - it will stop anyone seeing it. I don't know why yours opens when a form does.

I just had a look on an Office 03 PC. In that version you go to "Window" then "Hide" and it hides the current window, then to unhide you do the opposite. Is that available to you.

hi, I use Access 2007 now so correct me if I am wrong. Have you tried just Hiding it, or is that what you are doing? I cannot remember the exact way of getting there but it is in tools I think and under "hide" you then just select Database Window...unhide to get it back.

Right guys I need some free software but hoping someone has done something similar so can recommend one: I want to take an image of my HD as a backup... I know of clonezilla but apparently it is quite tricky to use.

what do i need to add to make it work - I received the errors: "[Shared Memory]SQL Server does not exist or Access denied" "[Shared Memory]SQL Server Connectionopen" I assume I need to type password etc?!

My advice is stick to the best brands, they will offer longer warranty and better disks...Seagate, Western Digital, Lacie are all good...I recently got a Western Digital Elements 1TB for £70 and a 1TB Lacie for £65....

its an installation of Microsoft SQL Server Desktop Engine for SQL 2000... im trying to get the backups working now.

I think a licensing issue...never the less I will investigate and see if I can install it. In the mean time can anyone suggest the command line ?!

Hi, I am trying to automate the backup of 2 SQL Server 2000 databases. We currently have middleware to complete the backups but I am hoping to ensure it is done automatically. Basically Enterprise manager is not installed and I need to use a batch file and windows scheduled task to complete...

I own an Iphone 3G - its awesome...in my experience the only thing that can come close is the new HTC running Android....in the future Apple will be hard pushed to beat Android software.....keep your eyes on it.... The Android OS should be good too.

Oh thats what I do maybe I am misunderstanding what is classed as a lookup... At uni I was taught to use value lists - not a long course so its fine... At work I use lookup tables as you posted, I may not define the field as a primary key but generally I do use it as a foreign key in the...

I always knew Lookup tables were criticised but what do we use instead. For example I have a table containing courses - with locations in a lookup table - a combo box on the form assigns the location to the course - what do i do instead? Value Lists on combo-boxes???

well the easiest updates would be a distribution of updated front ends to all users via whichever method you used to distribute to users. not sure which is the easiest for you to distribute - if you can acces the 20 users PC's consider just copying/pasting onto their machines...then ensure the...

Ah ok - all Front Ends and the Back End would be on the same server but different shares...

is this anything related to this news article: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7700621.stm Most other available sources aren't as up-to-date your best bet is the post office if it is important...

Just mentioned this to my boss - At the minute they are of the opinion "if it works, dont touch it".... My best suggestion was to provide all users with a folder in their Home Directory (which is backed up) containing the front end databases...were trying to avoid saving to their c:\ for...

Hey, basically I got this wrong too but this is what you need to do: - Build your database - Split the database - Provide all users with the .mdb/.accdb which access the _be
