No Two Head Jokes Please! :)

Hiya

New user from Tassie...I've been using Access off n on since 95 but never really mastered it. I started a project for personal use in 2002, got pretty far in developing its usability for data entry then life got in the way and I let it slide. 17 years on I'm determined to get it finally sorted but of course Access has changed since then so I feel I want to start it all over again. I bought the Access 2010 Bible and although a lot of things have helped...it's also confused the heck out of me in some areas. So while I do know some things...I'm also very (what's the PC term for dumb as f***? ) in other ways. So please forgive any questions I ask that may be blatantly obvious...some things take time for me to fully comprehend (I can thank a recent medical problem for that) :banghead:

Anyhoo...that's me for now...

Cheers
RhiannonM

Hi. Welcome to the forum.

No such thing as a stupid question here. If it helps, have a couple of shots or wobbly pops when you post, then you can blame any embarrassing comments on that.

Works for me

 

[RhiannonM]

PMSL!!! Wobbly pops! Love it!

Sadly I've kinda gone off the ol' giggle juice...not to say I don't still partake if the need arises...

Oh dear...is Access so bad that I need to start drinking again?

Welcome and glad you saw your way clear to join us. As to asking what might seem to be dumb questions, you shouldn't worry. We know the difference between simply uninformed and abysmally stupid.

...We know the difference between simply uninformed and abysmally stupid.

I can absolutely guarantee i will blur that line...i can be both in the same thought...

We know the difference between simply uninformed and abysmally stupid.

But we don't point it out, right?
Maybe some of us comment in a non-targeted way - like in a signature line...

Had to look up PMSL - I'm somewhat oblivious where social media is concerned.

 

[RhiannonM]

First stupid question coming!...i know it's stupid cos i know that you don't post questions in your introduction...i have no idea where else to ask this tho!

But is there a way to bookmark a single post and pop it in a folder that doesn't a. include all the other posts in the thread or b. fill up my chrome bookmarks?

Sorry forgive me sorry sorry sorry

Yes you can. No need to apologise.
Click on the post number at the top right to select it. You may need to hold for a second or two.
The single post will open in a new window which you can bookmark.
For example your last post was https://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showpost.php?p=1625143&postcount=8

Yeh I figured that out...but is saving it as an internet bookmark the only way?

Is it possible to "save" the post in a folder like in the subscription section but not an entire thread subscription?

Cheers

I don't believe so. If you haven't already done so, have a look at the FAQ section
