    Weird DVD problem...

    It doesn't detect that there is even a disk in the drive. I would try to play the tracks, but it is as if there is nothing in the drive. DVD's work great, but pop a CD in, and it's like the drive is empty.

    Weird DVD problem...

    It doesn't recognize CD's. The drive will spin up and down repeatedly when I insert a CD in the drive.

    Weird DVD problem...

    Neither commercial or burned (music, data, game, etc) CD's work. I just watched a few minutes of 2001 Space Odessey on DVD, and it worked great.

    Weird DVD problem...

    I have a compaq laptop, and it has a toshiba DVD player. It plays DVD's fine, but when I play music it will not recognize the disks. I haven't been able to find anything on this, and would appreciate any help. Thank you.

    Returning User Name

    Ok, my apologies for not being clearer. I am running SQL Server 2000. Thank you for stating my problem better- it's whomever is logged into the current session that I need. 'suser_sname' doesn't work in VBA. I do use it quite a bit in SQL commands, and it works perfectly. Do I need to...

    Returning User Name

    I really appreciate the help, but it doesn't do what I need. I should have been more clear in my previous post. The function you provided gives me my windows log-in. What I need is the log-in name that I use to log into the database.

    Finish college as CS Major?

    Thanks everybody. I guess I've been on the nervous side with all that I've been reading. I do plan on finishing my CS degree - I just was worried about getting burned when I graduated. As a side note, being a newbie, I've grown fond of Tek-tips. I like being able to come here and have...

    Finish college as CS Major?

    I'm going to start my Jr. year as a ComSci major, and I have one pretty good internship under my belt (well, after this next week). From what I read here, and other places, I'm worried about the job market when I graduate. My main training at school is in C++/Java, which from what I read is an...

    Returning User Name

    I want to get the current users name, much like SUSER_SNAME() does in SQL (it doesn't work for what I am doing). I know about CurrentUser(), but that just returns "Admin", because I don't have a secured workgroup file. The backend and security is handled by SQL Server. Is this...

    BSc (Hons) Comp Sci - Where next?!??

    I'm thinking of living in the Bay area next summer, between my Jr and Sr year at school. I'm working on a BS in Comp Sci. I currently have a summer job with the local county government working on a database. Do you think I'll have any luck finding a summer internship/job out there for the summer?

    Changing input parameters in VBA

    SQL for my stored procedure: CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.frmFullTimePayrollSource(@varDate datetime) AS SELECT [Department_Name] AS Expr1, Date AS Expr2, dbo.[Payroll_Info].* FROM dbo.[Payroll_Info] WHERE ([Department_Name] = SUSER_SNAME()) AND (Date = @varDate) GO My form's Input...
