    Elon missed a trick?

    SpaceX should just build a spaceport and start launching starships from there. Using the falcons to send materials and resources in orbit. No need to get them back to Earth...

    Suggestions Required to Develop HTML Projects

    Not sure how serious this question is based on the other 3 questions. But in any case, first of all, HTML isn't a programming language. HTML is just a markup language (like Scribe, XML) For projects, well you can create website with it.

    Solved Siblings in Student Database

    Usually, you can put the family name in it. But make sure you have a system to handle edge cases. For example, I have 2 names and at one point, they added me twice in class...

    Solved Siblings in Student Database

    That makes more sense. What about a 'Family' table ? with ID and Name Like Student as a field 'FamilyID' Should normalize your table even more I think.

    Solved Siblings in Student Database

    I wouldn't store all the 1---1 ones. You cannot be a sibling of yourself. Should look more like this : 1........... 2 2............1 3.............4 3.............5 4.............3 4.............5 5.............3 5.............4 that way, you know for each student who the siblings are. select...

    I believe Slavery was an Evolutionary Step...

    My bad. That was what I mean by 'where you are born'. If you where born in some indian family, or somewhere in japan, your choices will be different. And maybe it is bad to lead to stereotyping, but that is the unlucky outcome. Belgium is also stereotyped as 'beer drinking people' and yes, most...

    I believe Slavery was an Evolutionary Step...

    That is imo not really true. Yes, there are a lot of variations, but they are still based on where you are born. Our brain is like machine learning. Any input at early stages can have a great impact later. If you tell a baby from the moment that it is born that red is called 'green', the baby...

    impossible to get year in format date

    That is because it is in VBA. VBA is (as far as I know) same functions for all. OP was using the format expression in the designer mode. (This is the same as Excel: you need to use language specific functions in cells. But not in VBA)

    impossible to get year in format date

    I would just check the microsoft support : https://support.microsoft.com/nl-nl/office/een-datum-en-tijdveld-opmaken-47fbbdc1-52fa-416a-b8d5-ba24d881b698 Looks like Dutch uses the English letters. (but again, it looks like nobody knows what is correct : u of hh Geeft het uur weer met één of...

    why is this place so republican?

    Isn't that how a democracy works ? You vote until only 2 evil choices are left then, all the people can do (not because that is what the people want but just doesn't have the choice anymore) is to pick the one that is less evil. Well in France you have like the first voting round and after that...

    impossible to get year in format date

    As far as I created VBA in access on a dutch version of Office, it doesn't matter. SELECT DateofSale, Year([DateofSale]) AS Expr1 FROM ProductSales; This select will be the same. But it looks like even Microsoft doesn't really know what to use in the format function ...

    I believe Slavery was an Evolutionary Step...

    I think you missed the point. What I wanted to tell is to give people the benefit of the doubt before actually warning and giving advice. It is possible that @ColinEssex didn't know the true facts or whatever. And you can explain why or what. 'Be careful what you post on a public forum.' So...

    I believe Slavery was an Evolutionary Step...

    I disagree here. Why should someone be careful to post something on a forum ? We all can be wrong at one point or even not know everything like it is in reality. But that is why on a forum, you can explain your own point of view on stuff. And yes, we do have to rely on papers or articles...

    same error is 2 queries

    Long time I used Access, but since you are doing a sum, why isn't there a group by in the query ? You either put only the 'sum' in the select, or use a group by. (I think)

    Flying aircraft carrier?

    Not so real for me. I see to many issues. Landing a jet on a boat is already difficult. I can't imagine how landing on a flying aircraft (at 800miles/h) The incoming jet has to catch-up, then match that speed to perfection in order to stop. (how to you manage that ? Like you catch the wheel and...

    The antidote to "no longer set"

    Totally agree. But still it all depends who is the reader. We (or I) make documents for people who had a similar school-degree. That is also a reason why pair-programming has been used a lot. You can give feedback and have less of that auto-correct mentality.

    The antidote to "no longer set"

    But where to you draw that line ? I here have a senior IT colleague who creates help-files. Yes, help-files can be useful with a lot of useful information for new persons or when you forgot something. But the help-files start to be in the form of : * link to an article 1) clic on link above...

    Solved How does this work?

    The function is also public so, good question. It can be useful when using private functions. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office/vba/access/concepts/error-codes/program-with-class-modules Other than that, to show some 'best practices' in a demo project ?

    Solved How does this work?

    I don't think in VBA this is an issue. As shown in the picture, ErrorHandling is a class and the Public eh As New ErrorHandling will always run. Even if that line failed, it is save to say that you cannot open the file. If for some odd reason, the instance got destroyed, it is still not really...
