    Hello: (I'm repeating this thread from another forum after several days with no reply.) [hourglass] Whenever I copy a backend .mdb (the one with all the tables), I cannot use the front end to modify any data. I can go directly to the copied tables, open and modify the data. But when I try to...

    How do I open port 8013? (or 13?)

    Hi: I can't get any of the atomic time programs to work. The most articulate of them says "...ask the system administrator to open port 13...". My system administrator doesn't know! That's me. I suspect that the 13 means "8013". I've tried "Help" and "Administrative Tools"...can't find it...
