    WiFi Over Long Distances

    Howdy All, The ministry of my church asked if I could help with a scheme to set up wifi for the church. My first thoughts were of the size of the church, somewhere around 27000 sq/ft (it's an old converted theater and the walls are thick!). Then there's the Sanctuary, 9 Minister Offices, and 4...

    Pass a Value from Access to Excel

    strongm ... Thanks for the critique. It was worthwhile and put another method I wasn't aware of at my disposal. All in all and especially for a single value, the registry method fits the problem directly and with minimum code. For a greater number of passed values, I'd probably use the .run...

    Pass a Value from Access to Excel

    strongm . . . The registry is common between Access and Excel. Their Custom property Stores are not. At least as far as I know. In this case passing the variable thru the registry simply made it all easy ... and done quickly. I have yet to imagine how I would pass a variable using custom...

    Pass a Value from Access to Excel

    Good mourning Skip. I first tried my original idea with environment variables but quickly realized we're talking two separate environments (one for each process ... Access/Excel), so can't connect. The above brought to mind Public Variables, which are set in the declaration section of a...
