    70-291 and WSUS

    Just a head's up to anyone taking 70-291 anytime soon: I took the test last week and received six questions specifically pertaining to WSUS. These weren't even DNS or routing questions that mentioned WSUS but rather were configuration issues. Just as surprising to me was the dearth of...

    CLI and 70-290

    From test-takers' experiences, what CLI commands should I know and what level of detail should I have? I'm generally familiar with the basic commands (diskpart, tracert, ds*, etc.), but I don't know the options that well as I rarely if ever use most of them. I've taken notes on all of the...

    Requerying a subform control from a form

    I have a subform with a combo box for topics that describe the main form's record. When a topic needs to be added to the list, the user clicks on a button to bring up an "edit list" form. In order to refresh the combo box in the topic subform I've assigned this event for the edit list form's...

    Linking a field as a memo field from Excel

    I have a daily task that requires me to append a number of rows from a spreadsheet into an Access table. I linked the worksheet path and created an append query for it. One of the fields in the spreadsheet routinely includes more than 255 characters, but Access still links it as a text field...

    I am trying to install a Kyocera printer (via a standard TCP/IP port). Like almost all current Kyocera printers, its drivers are unsigned. I have disabled driver signing in the System control panel (while logged in under the Administrator account), but when I click finish in the Add Printer...

    5xp startup anomaly

    I have a 5xp connected to a Paradyne ReachDSL modem via a crossover cable and a Netgear switch via a straight through. Whenever I unplug the 5xp or disconnect the untrust cable to the modem and restart/reconnect, I lose the connection to the modem. It still doles out IP addresses and I can...

    Null modem cable pin-out for 25 to 9

    I'm not sure this is the right forum, but it seems that someone here will probably know the answer. I need to make a null modem cable to connect my voice mail system (25 pin) to my computer's 9 pin serial port. Does anyone know the pin-out for this situation? Also, I'm planning on doing a 50'...

    Enabling voicemail with TD816 and TVS75

    I am installing a TD816 PBX and a TVS75 VPS. (This is the first system I've configured.) I configured a port on the 816 for the VPS and integrated the two systems through a d-pits connection, and I have been able to access the voicemail ports from a station. Unfortunately, I can't for the life...

    Removing duplicates from Auto Archive Calendar

    On my calendar, I imported all auto archived events and the adjusted the archive settings from 6 months to 12 months. Unfortunately, I forgot to delete the old archive, so I now have duplicates of all events 12 months or earlier. Is there any quick way to remove the dupes? Thanks, Sam

    Is there a simple way to create a query or auditing tool that will list all fields in a table as well as their characteristics (size, type, key status, etc.)? Thanks, Sam

    We have a proprietary MS Access D/B that currently has 12,000 records (it will eventually have over 100,000) and will be shared by three machines locally and 2-4 clients simultaneously through VPN. We just bought a Linux server (w. a RAID and Samba) and were planning to just put the Access...

    I have a script which runs a make table query, then runs an update query, and finally prints a report. The query worked without a hitch on a the first computer I used (AccessXP), but I get an error message during the update query that says &quot;The expression is typed incorrectly, or is too...

    Specifying a column for a parameter query without IIf

    I am writing a parameter query where not only are the criteria for the query based on the value of fields in a form, but I also need to specify what column to use based on the value of a combo box in the form. For instance, if the value selected in the form is &quot;Bob Total&quot; I need to...
