Hi folks, I imagine I'll get the same folks answering me here, but I figured it's best to post separate questions as separate threads, so that people who search might find this helpful. So, quick summary: I have a very simple .net app connected to an Access database. Users visit a site and are...

Hi folks, thanks to everyone's kind help, my little app is moving forward, and I'm back with another newbish question. After much finagling with MapPath and so forth, I've written a sub that successfully writes data to my database when one of my radio voting buttons is clicked, yay! Where I'm...

Hi folks, Well, judicious use of Google failed to turn up an answer to this, and you guys are always fast to reply, so here goes again. My little ASP.NET application involves a simple (well, for you) voting engine. My page displays a suggestion pulled at random from my database, along with a...

So, I'm attempting to write a little ASP.NET application, even though I'm a terminal newbie about such things, and NOT a programmer by nature. My programming method is basically taking code from various other places and tweaking it to death. The application grabs some data from an Access...

Hi folks, I'm looking to build a relatively simple .NET web site that handles voting with a database back-end, something almost exactly like this site: http://www.ratemyink.com Well, it would be simple for you programmer types. I'm a .NET novice, so I'm looking for code snippets to give me...

Hi folks, I'm a complete .NET newbie, in way over my head. :) I'm familiar with some of the .NET concepts, but I only know enough to be dangerous. I'm currently faced with the task of writing a .NET form that will basically retrieve some data from a vendor-provided web service and display it in...

Hi folks, I'm a complete .NET newbie, in way over my head. :) I'm familiar with some of the .NET concepts, but I only know enough to be dangerous. I'm currently faced with the task of writing a .NET form that will basically retrieve some data from a vendor-provided web service and display it in...

Hi folks, I'm running into a text file problem, wanted to know if anyone could help. Basically, I have some UNIX shell scripts that run a PL/SQL program. At the end of the process, it outputs several text files, which are then sent to a vendor's HTTPS site using cURL. During testing, most of...

OK, so I know enough technically to be dangerous, but hardware has never been my strong suit. We had a few power outages here today, and now one of my computers is hosed. Basically, it goes through the BIOS and then stops dead in its tracks. The BIOS has an IDE diagnostic tool, and when I run...

Howdy folks, I have essentially zero experience with Crystal Reports. But, I have a copy of Crystal Reports 10. I have a need to get at some data that is provided via a .NET web service. Is this something that Crystal is capable of doing? If so, can anyone point me in the right direction to...

Hey folks, Here's a quick question on e-mail stuff. I have a POP3 e-mail account that I access via Outlook 2000 from home, and via a web-based program ("webmail") from a second PC. I find using Outlook much better. The second PC has Outlook 2003 installed, but it's used for another e-mail...

Hi there folks. I'm not a C++ developer, but I thought I'd ask a theoretical question here just out of curiosity's sake. Does C++ have built-in functions that allow you to generate a random number that would fit a bell curve? In other words, I want to create a function (or whatever the correct...

Howdy folks. I'm working with an Oracle 8i database. I know just about enough SQL to get myself into trouble, and now I'm stuck. I'm looking for a way to select certain data, and I think it may be possible using CASE, but I can't quite figure it out. The table I'm selecting from is simple. It...

OK, so I have an Oracle 8i database that has a table with one column in LONG format. I have a need to export this data, and somehow get it into MS Access. Although the data in in LONG format, there are no values that would not fit into an Access Memo field. However, I'm having trouble getting...

OK, I did some searching and wasn't able to come up with anything relevant. I'm using Acrobat 7.0.7 Standard, and Word 2003. My Word source document has hyperlinks to internal locations, using either Word Bookmarks or Word Headings. I also have some hyperlinks created through...

Is anyone aware of a shareware utility out there that would "record" what an installation program does, and report back the details, such as which files were installed where, what changes were made to the registry, etc? Thanks!

OK, I seem to have a spate of questions lately that need answering here, but everyone continues to be helpful, so I'll continue to ask. I have a new Dell Latitude D610, running XP Pro. It has up-to-date virus software, no spyware issues (ran 2 spyware checks recently), a hard drive that doesn't...

OK, I've once again set Access aside for long enough that I totally have forgotten how to use it. Now it's aggravating me again, so I come to you begging for help, as usual. I have an Access database (2000 format, but it could just as easily be 2003). Let's say, for the sake of simplicity, that...

I have a relatively new Dell Latitude D610 at work. It's a nice machine, running XP Pro, with 1 GB of memory. I've recently defragged it, and run a registry cleaning utility, as well as multiple spyware and virus checks. Looks pretty clean, to my eyes. But, the weird thing is, this machine...

OK, I'm technical enough that I should be able to figure this out, but it's driving me insane. I have a new laptop, running XP Pro and IE 6.0 SP2. Every time I open a new IE window, the window is sized so that it takes up only the top half of my screen, like this...
