    Ok, next one: Two guards are guarding safes. One of the safes contains $1,000,000.00 and the other will explode on opening, killing everyone around. You are only allowed to ask one guard one question, which must be answered either yes or no. The problem is that one guard always tells the...

    However, the more Irish whiskey that is added to the cup, the less sure the answer becomes. Rather like Schroedinger's Cat, this is known as Paddy's Dilemma.

    That is correct. Another way to do it is like this: With two people (A and B), there is one handshake (A with B). With three people (A, B, and C), there are three handshakes (A with B and C; B with C). With four people (A, B, C, and D), there are six handshakes (A with B, C...

    At a recent local political caucus everyone shook hands with everyone else (politics being what it is). In total there were 91 handshakes. Can you tell me how many people attended the caucus?

    Brian, I do believe that geometrically that was an abstruse method, not obtuse. You can work out the angles and proof yourself and you will see that I am correct as is the usual custom.

    Prevent a Form from closing.

    In the OnClose event, check your fields for nulls. If you find any, pop up a msgbox for the user and use DoCmd.CancelEvent to stop the form from closing.

    Archiving Records

    If I need to track a record a bit more I will add a Status lookup take with values such as "New", "Updated" and "Deleted". Then the status field in the records table will be a foreign key to the primary key of the Status lookup table. I also include a status_date field in the records table...

    Backup DB to CD/DVD

    Ooops, left that out. Yes, they are all Windows 7 with Cyberlink ToGo software installed. If I am not mistaken, Windows 7 will allow a CD/DVD to write files natively without additional software though?

    Backup DB to CD/DVD

    Ok, this one might be a little esoteric but I thought I would give it a try. A client has asked me to develop an Access 2007 application for him. The database and application are no biggie. But here is what I need ideas on. This will be a dispersed and disconnected db and app (not shared...

    FIFA World Cup 2010

    Unfortunately I thought this was another game of "I don't want to lose" rather than "I want to win". Yes, I agree with all of you who were dismayed with the hack and slash of the match. No, I absolutely disagree with PNGBill and Doc Man about the low scoring aspect. To me, the easier the goal...

    Ok, let me see if I can explain this: England is a country. Northern Ireland is a country. Scotland is a country. Wales is a country. England, Scotland and Wales make up Great Britain and are all on one island. England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland make up the United Kingdom. The...

    Even this Yank knows that Northern Ireland is not on the same island as Great Britian. Look at your map.

    BuildCriteria() function

    Wow! Thanks. I will look into this. Could be very useful.

    BuildCriteria() function

    wtrimble, BuildCriteria is not a standard VBA or Access function. It is a custom function someone has written and should exist in a Module for your database. That is the code Hi Tech Coach is asking for. Check your Modules. You will surely find it there.
