    Using AI to speed up development

    I've heard that you must continually remind Chatty, et al, of your coding standards. Also, you must insist that they are used consistently. Does that correspond to your experience?

    Slow response to following in-site page link

    My first visit this morning was painfully slow. Subsequently, performance returned to normal. Is it something to do with caching behavior of browsers?

    text box showing record in Sub form

    Again, if you can explain the reason for this approach, not just the mechanics of this initial attempt, we can help you implement a design that works.

    text box showing record in Sub form

    I see nothing in either table that appears to be an "InsuranceNo". How would you find it to display on the form? The query in the subform control gets records from a table that has three fields: FileNo FName LName How would you retrieve an InsuranceNo using any of those three fields? Where...

    text box showing record in Sub form

    Assuming I've interpreted your requirement and context correctly, all you need to do is set the controlsource of the textbox called txtInsuranceNo to the value of the column in the combobox cboCriteria which displays the InsuranceNo. You already state that it is the first column of the combo...

    Access Europe User Group - Wed 7 Jan: Spot the Difference – A new style MsgBox for Access (Neil Sargent)

    At some point, I believe Microsoft went from a technology company with a good marketing strategy to being a marketing company with usable technology.

    Is AI Increasing Costs?

    It occurred to me just now that the vagueness of the title of this particular thread obscures an important point about human civilization and critical progress. "Is AI Increasing Costs?" The obvious answer is "Yes, of course it is." ANY human endeavor increases some cost. However, that same...

    Creating reasonably realistic fake data in SQL Server

    At the San Francisco AUG meeting yesterday, Crystal shared a link to a site that could be useful here. However, I didn't capture it, it appears. Maybe she'll see this and share it here?

    Moving staff roster to next month

    This approach to table design is often referred to as "Spreadsheet tables", and that is not a Good Thing™. It usually turns out that the original source of the data was an Excel worksheet imported directly into Access. Here are some links to resources that will help you learn the appropriate...

    Search data from one table to append to another table

    From the description of the end goal, it appears there is a faulty table design here. It would not be proper design to have to store the same values from three different fields in a second table. I think I can guess what the tables actually look like based on this description, although this is...

    Using VBA? [My THINKING] to LINK a BE

    Good point. I used that reference primarily to point out it's been around a long time, 30 years. I actually don't use it much, if at all, anymore because most of my personal databases have SQL Server back ends.
