    Missing the obvious? use expression builder to populate field in a new record

    Thanks again. I should have mentioned that I'm updating the forms for an existing table with 20k records, it already uses a single string to enter and store this same data, and many of those records need to be edited. Does anyone have suggestions or hints on how to save the result of an...

    Missing the obvious? use expression builder to populate field in a new record

    Aloha dhookom, Thanks for the reply! The fields used in the expression aren't stored in the table. They are used to create the final string, which is stored in the table. First the user picks the correct Island from the IslandCode combobox, then enters QuadData, and then enters SiteData, the...

    Windows Storage Server 2003 - has to be DC?

    I've been out of Windows networking for a while so this question is pretty basic, does a Windows Server 2003 have to be a domain controller to work with active directory users? Is it just a stand-alone server if it's not a dc? The network has a single Windows 2000 file server running active...

    Thank you for your input, however the problem in our installation appears to be rooted elsewhere, because the printer drivers are up to date, and the visual difference between the same application on a Win9x box and Win2K is very apparent, but they both print to the same network printer. Thank...

    Aloha Dudenjersey, Thank you for the reply. Good to know about your success with Tricerat. I was impressed when the demo worked for us on the first run. However our long range plans include non-windows clients so it may not workout for us. Thank you, Alan
