    Security Problem

    Bad Move Unless you know a fair bit the wizard is a sure fire way to screw matters. You have probably used the System.mdw file that has stuffed all databases Send me a PM with an email address and I will send some documents that explain security and how to set it up correctly. This evening...

    Error Message On Opening Database

    Got to dig a bit more but since a linked tables only database opens without a problem there must be something within the Autoexec macro or the forms opened by the Autoexec generating the problem. Surprising how logic thought works better when the problem is discussed. Wood and Trees comes to...

    Error Message On Opening Database

    Thanks for the hints and tips I have now created a database that purely has the linked tables defined as previous That opens fine Therefore must be in startup process which I thought and checked were identical. There is obviously something different somewhere Thanks Len

    What do you consider to be the best "con" of recent years?

    You see you offer a possibility. I have no idea of Hydrogen fuel is a real possibility. but I am not convinced at this time that is is not a possibilitry. CH4 contains hydrogen. Water is not the only possibility. Maybe nuclear to produce a continous electricity stream to produce Hydrogen...

    What do you consider to be the best "con" of recent years?

    My problem is that I am an optimist. I therefore see potential in most things until proven wrong. So yes I agree with you to a point, I like/need to find out what is not feasible by pushing forward on all fronts. Only when a complete wall is met do I tend to then put the matter on back...

    Is this a sign of dyslexia coming my way

    I think it is a case of the brain being as active as it ever was but the nreves and fingers are not so good and hence the letters sometimes get kumbled or jumbled as teh case may be. In my case of course it is the brain speed still increasing and teh rwest of the body just cannot cope with the...

    What do you consider to be the best "con" of recent years?

    Yeah I think they handle it a bit differently. I believe basically they generate to meet demand. Bearing in mind that putting on the kettle hardly shows in the demand profile so similarly you feeding back the odd amp to the national grid does not really mean an adjustment to the throttles...

    Thoughts from UK members on where to live

    Not fully up to date but have you checked quarantine regulations on bringing livestock (incl dogs) into UK Not something I have experience of but worth checking cos last time I heard it was 6 months in Government kennels and strict quarantine. May be some innoculations to avoid this but they...

    What do you consider to be the best "con" of recent years?

    Thats where engineers/scientists come into the picture. We do not know the how yet, maybe there is chemical process that could be used. Hydrogen is stuck to many things not only oxygen I believe. Captain Kirk burst onto the scene a few years ago with a mobile phone. It was Science Fiction...

    What do you consider to be the best "con" of recent years?

    I agree. Many years ago when due to oil crisis and all sorts of things the UK was on a 3 day week. That is electricity was only available for 3 days a week. Other days electricity was only available for about 3 hours Under these circumstances you had to be very careful exactly what you used...

    What do you consider to be the best "con" of recent years?

    Wind does blow in UK sometimes yes but the UK weather is not at all reliable. There are applications where wind generation is very good. Generally higher level, more remote, northerly island applications. History has shown that it is necessary to explore new processes/technologies without a...

    What do you consider to be the best "con" of recent years?

    Not sure Global warming seems to be used by politicians to justify tax rises. Al Gore whose "Inconvenient Truth" and hockey stick effect has been shown to be a total mockery. Whatever data was fed into the model the results were the same. Frequently scientific research does use an element of...

    What do you consider to be the best "con" of recent years?

    The biggest con Hmmm may be a bit controversal here How about the predictions on Global Warming. Now before the greenies jump all over me. I am not against halting pollution. I am not against reducing CO2. I say if you do not burn it you do not produce CO2. Wind farms are not a solution...
