    Today's Environmentalists Are Really Luddites

    Luddites were people who destroyed new technologies because they thought change would destroy life as they knew it. The modern Luddites are those who are fighting the inevitable shift to renewable energy. Like the original Luddites they will eventually die while the young embrace the change.

    The more things change...

    My wife is from a motorcycle racing family and we are big fans of MotoGP. While Marc Marques is not our favourite rider, his ability to get a bike back upright is unparalleled. To my knowledge the farthest over he has been verified to come back from is 69 degrees. (63 degrees is typically the...

    The more things change...

    I've not be around here much for a couple of years. Haven't done anything new in Access for a long time. My work focus became much more oriented towards SQL Server, especially integrating with a multivalue database system that has been quite a challenge. My old Access applications are still in...

    Suppress debugging or runtime errors prompts.

    It is often assumed that every sub or function needs an error handler but this is not the case. Upon encountering an error Access will work its way back up the calling stack until it reaches an error handler. Only when this process is exhausted, will it throw and unhandled error. If the code is...

    How the AI apocolypse starts

    AI is already being poisoned by vast quantities of misinformation pages being generated by AI. It could already be a war between AIs trying to wreck its competitors. We won't know when AI takes over because AI will be manipulating the information we see. Even those who think they are...

    A dream: What I do miss about Access.

    It isn't hard to write a sub to read the VBA to list all the functions in a project and write them to a table. The parameter names and their datatypes could be included as fields. Every Access developer should get the free V-tools plugin. Total Deep Search is incredibly useful an has a Replace...

    things I can't do in a TVF table-valued function

    Sounds like a job for a stored procedure. BTW I once said on here that a CTE was run just once at the beginning but I have since been told that a CTE is simply a quick way to repeat the code and it runs separately for each instance it is used.

    Automatically Refresh a form when table data changes externally, table macro perhaps?

    Just a correction to your terminology. A Refresh of a form updates the values on changed records but does not show new records. For that you need a Requery. Incorrect terminology can lead to bewildering behaviour on this.

    Learning the lesson

    I Googled the price of low background steel today and AI gave me an answer of $5 billion per kilogram. I have a couple hundred kilograms of it under my house so I'm going to sell it tomorrow and retire to live in luxury for the rest of my life.;)

    What does SKOL mean?

    I would hazard a guess that the Australian term, "skull", meaning to down a whole drink in one action, came from the same root.

    The Qur'an

    I did not title myself "super-moderator". I have no idea who applied that term to my profile. The religious of any flavour are often offended when someone points out the reality about their delusional beliefs.

    Slow downloads using ODBC driver to connect to Shopify

    ODBC drivers I have looked into connect to online resources via their API. I thought that was the case with Devart and Salesforce but I don't know about Shopify. I don't have any direct experience but some ODBC drivers to online resources will download the whole table when selecting one record...
