Methinks I read a large measure of sour grapes and long-seated resentment in your response. Someday perhaps you will find a reason to feel rightful pride and admiration in the selfless actions of your fellow citizens. I will belabor this point no further. Additional moaning and groaning on...

Being proud of your fellow citizens is certainly not bragging. Bragging is "excessive or unwarranted pride in an accomplishment, feature or act" and the pride I feel for these unselfish actions of my fellow citizens is certainly not excessive nor unwarranted.

I must say that today I am extremely proud of my fellow Americans. It does not matter where or what the need, it seems America is there first, with the most and without expectations. Hardly had the dust settled from the tragic 8.9 earthquake before we were steaming to Japan's aid. My...

I know what you mean. I found the same problem in Dallas when I was last there. :)

For my fellow Americans who may have been confused at some terms in my last post: chipper = a place that mainly sells fish and chips. Usually they are sold rolled up in a greasy newspaper cone or brown paper cone. How healthy is that??? take-away = take-out restaurant. Not like McDonalds...

I haven't been to London since 2006 but there are some really good restaurants there. Those are mostly the up-scale "International cuisine" type. From my experience the chippers and local restaurants and take-aways still have the same bland, greasy and overcooked food that has been traditional...

In all my travels in Europe the worst food (generally) I came across was in Northern Ireland (UK). Everything was overcooked, underseasoned and generally unhealthy. What kind of a meal would deep fried chips smothered in baked beans be? Of course, then there is haggis in Scotland...

Great idea!

Ah, the quarry rises yet again. Isn't fishing the most marvelous sport?

If you would like a difficult language to learn, try Gaeilge (Irish Gaelic). Spoken words rarely resemble the written version. Spellings can totally change depending on the word before and/or the word after.

Sometimes it is difficult for an American to understand British (and many times Canadian) spelling of certain words that seem to be pronounced the same as we do: Centre (why is that not prounounced "cen-tree"?), behaviour, checque all come to mind.

Besides, if he were to cease and desist, I would have no one to bait, and I am becoming a master at that activity.

You guys get yer panties in a twist over nothing, Col. Jus' chill. K?

A question first... if a tanker were on site for 30 days would the calculation be £50 * 30 or would it be (£70 * 14) + (£60 * 14) + (£50 * 2)?

I heard on the radio this morning that teachers are beginning to see textspeak in the papers turned in by students, especially "lol" and smiley faces at the end of sentences. Most seem to be marking them as errors and lowering grades. My guess is that such incidents will become so commonplace...

You are correct. If all else fails, you can look at the following links. One is a link to software that MAY unlock the MDE to allow changes to forms and reports although VBA modules will still remain inaccessible. The second is a link to a discussion that points to yet another software...

The MDB for the front end will likely have the same name as the MDE. I don't think there would be a way to import the forms, reports, etc from the MDE. If you can find out the originall author of the database, that is where I would go looking for the source MDB.

You will need to locate the orignal MDB file to make the changes and then compile the new MDE for distribution. You always have to have the MDB on hand for development so be sure to back it up and store it securely.

That is very true. But then, the concept of "real" property is something that is codified and enforced by government. It does not (or did not) exist in some societies. So, by your reasoning I should be able to just take whatever I need. After all, you don't really own anything, except by...
