    Type Register

    OK, I'll own up here - I have no idea about VB. Someone has asked me to install some software. They have lost the install files, but know which files the VB app installs, various .ocx, .dll etc. However, there are some .tlb...

So far, I've found two files(swfalsh.ocs, swflash.inf) and a ton of registry entries. BTW, I did not search...

    Novell and NT talking?

    I have an existing Novell Lan (no idea about Novell, always been NT). We are looking at creating a new training centre, would NT be able to get access to existing apps on an AS/400 and Novell network? If so, how would I do this? It was rumoured that we could use Terminal Server, how would Win...

    Windows 95 hangs when printing

    This has been bugging me! When the laptop in question (Dell Latitude) is asked to print (Canon bj-10ex) (from any application) it brings up the printer settings box. When you then go OK, it hangs straight away.<br> <br> I have checked the IRQ, they look fine with no conflicts. I have checked the...

    Batch file query

    Can anybody shine any light on Batch files? I have a .bat file that will create a directory, move to that directory and start to run an exe that updates IE settings.

    Technical Post<br> <br> Management have decided to give in against a persistant user who wanted local admin rights on NT Workstation.

    Combo Boxes selecting query criteria for reports

    I have a form that controls which data is selected in a query. This works fine, as long as the user enters data in all fields. What I want to do is allow the user to enter data in some, not all of the combo boxes, and get data out. Is there a way using wildcards? What happens is that the query...

    Locking data on a record

    I have been asked if I can lock data in a database. This needs to occur on a record when a status is changed to &quot;completed&quot; on a field in the record. When this happens, no more changes can be made to that record. I believe that it is possible to lock record, however my understanding is...

    Cancel Button

    Am I being silly, but all I want to do is close a form, without saving the data. I have coded it as follows:<br> <br> Docmd.close , , acSaveNo<br> <br> but it still saves the data. Am I right in thinking that the data is added to the table as it is entered? If so, do I have to delete the data...

    NT Server Login failure

    Hello all,<br> <br> I have a NT 4 Server that runs SQL Server. It's a test server, running on a very powerful laptop that is used for developing the database.

    Cannot connect to server

    I'm fairly new to this SQL Server stuff, so I may have done something silly. However, as I had a list of instructions to follow, I dont think I did. <br> <br> I have an NT 4 Server, running service pack 5, a SQL Server 6.5 with service pack 3 installed. I have set it up, and gone into the...

    Report headings

    I am going out of my head trying to create a report heading! At the moment all the data is in an Excel spreadsheet, which I have imported into an Access 97 database.

    File Size in Excel

    Anybody know of a way of compressing files in Excel like you can in Access? I need to make sure a spreadsheet can fit onto a floppy disk but without using any zipping methods. The people who are using the spreadsheet work offshore and need to be able to leave a copy of the spreadsheet on the rig.
