    Weird problem with the @ key

    A friend of mine is having a problem where when he tries to type the @ sign, his computer types 2 colons. He can type the number 2 and no other keys are malfunctioning. What could this be? The computer and keyboard were purchased brand new 2 weeks ago.

    It would be nice if I could send you the files, but I think you understand the sensitivity of financial data. Beyond that, I dont know how to present the issue in a way that you can understand. I think I will go in a different direction. Thank you for the time you invested in trying to help.

    In access, we have a lot of data separated into tables. We have to put this data into preformatted excel workbooks that dont have the same layout as the access tables.

    I am trying to populate an excel file with budget data that is stored in access. The structure is different, otherwise I would just put the would database table there. I am not sure what you mean by the data range.

    Thanks, That is what I meant my link. I query the table by going through all the clicks from data/import external data/new database query/selecting database type/selecting database/selecting table/selecting fields/etc... I am trying to avoid doing all of this for each cell.

    Using Task Scheduler to Monitor website

    Works wonderfully except of one flaw. I cannot get TS to close the browser after the screen capture. When I try, it terminates the task altogether so that it does not run on the next hour.
