    Unmatched queries Confusion

    Okay, I'm reasonably intelligent when it comes to databases, but this "simple" query is eating my brain. I have two lists of files, each located in a different spot. One contains all names of files that have been uploaded to our database, and the other is the company file storage location...

    Print layout that rearranges itself?

    Okay, I'm merely an end user, though I'm not bad at design and basic access, I've got this weird (and badly designed), but mandatory format into which I have to enter data for a specific client. It has a ton of really unneccessary pages through which one has to wander in order to enter data...

    The straight dope light? Newbie question

    Hey gang, I hope this is the correct forum. Just curious, the design of this board looks strikingly similar to The Straight Dope board. Is this a common default "look" for some boards? (the Dope is the only other one I've seen with this visual format).
