    Distributing ODBC for linked SQL server in Citrix Environment

    Hi Folks, I think the question sums up what I need to do. I've got my back-end tables in an SQL Server 2000 database and a front-end which links via ODBC. It works fine on my machine because I've set up the ODBC connection. However, I want to distribute the front-end to my users so they can...

    Linking an oracle table with a non-unique index

    Hi Folks, I'm linking to an oracle database through ODBC and want to update the table. I'm getting the message 'Query must use updateable recordset' when I run an update query on it. I think - and am fairly positive - that the cause is that looking at the index definition on the oracle side...

    Locked Tables

    Hi Folks, I've recently been experiencing a strange problem with an access 2000 app I've written. Everything will be working fine then someone else will try to start the app and be told it's corrupt, not recognised, all sorts of weird stuff. The only way to resolve it is for everyone else to...

    Adding a yes/no to a table using VB

    Hi Folks, I'm trying to add a yes/no field to a table in Access 2k using an SQL script. No problem in terms of actually putting the field on but I cannot find a way of changing the control format to yes/no, other than going into the table details - it defaults to text box. This is obviously a...
