    CSS not showing in edit?

    When editing a page in Dreamweaver MX 6.0 the styles (linked to external CSS) are not rendering. Is that normal behavior in Dreamweaver? They do render when viewd thru a browser or when I edit in Front Page. I'm not sure what is normal or if I have something turned off. Thanks for any advise

    FAT boot sector getting a drive lettter prblm

    Thanx linney. The registry edit procedure allowed me to change it to an X instead of the G. This is a work-around, but seems to be ok. I have never seen the FAT partion on the C drive be given a drive letter before.

    FAT boot sector getting a drive lettter prblm

    My computer has started mapping the FAT boot sector as letter drive G. It boots ok, but I need G for something else. Any ideas on how to move it back to not having a drive letter map. I can’t do anything with it in Disk Management. It is a primary Fat partition on Disk0 (same as the C drive)...

    insert null date problem

    Thank you. The cfif IsDate thing works as a fix. Other info: There is no mask, no default value, and if I add data via a Microsoft Access front-end, the date field stays NULL if no data is input.

    insert null date problem

    I have an insert statement that inserts data from a form into a MS SQL table. One of the fields is a date. If the user leaves the date blank (perfectly acceptable) It inserts as 1/1/1900 rather than Null. To avoid that I am testing for no date input, then if blank it uses an insert statment that...

    calculating a field value by adding other field values

    Ok, thanks for the advice. I guess I will split the table up and go from there. Thanx. I gave you a star for not encouraging me to head down the wrong path.

    I have a table which contains “hours worked” for different trades (electrical, plumbing…) there are 14 of them. A single record has a field for each trade.
