    We moved an ODBC database from one server to another. I can't find anywhere that identifies the server my reports are pointing to. In Database Expert, add new connection, the only options I get are the same ones I previously had. Where, oh where, can I identify and change the server the...

    Can IDENTITY be reset?

    Parameter with wildcard

    In Access 2003 is there a way to base a parameter selection on a partial string using wildcards? For example, I want a user to input 'CAT' and return records containing 'CAT', not just records that exactly match 'CAT'. Thanks. Cathy

    'Find' vs, 'Search' results in Adobe Reader 7.0

    I need to be able to search across multiple documents for a string that includes both numbers and letters. Using the 'Search' feature does not return any results, whether I am searching in a single document or across multiple documents. Using 'Find' locates the string within the open document...
