    Two HP 855 CSE printers not printing "red"

    Hello, We have two identical Hp855CSE printers that do not get much use these days (on the color side). Recently when we did try printing with them, we noticed that neither prints anything with red in it. We figured it was the cartridge, so we replaced it with one in our cabinet. Same...

    Accessing Access tables from Microsoft COBOL 5.0

    SQL Server 2000 Table Structure

    Is there an easy way to get a printable copy of all of the SQL tables in our SQL Server 2000 database system? We are looking at converting several tables from Access to SQL Server and while I found a great freeware utility for ACCESS (EzDocumentor) I have nothing for the SQL Server side. I...

    Corrupt Access 97 mdb... "Record Deleted"

    We have an odd problem that started when a repairman shut down power to the Server weeks ago and the UPS did not do its job. Since that time one particular screen (which ties into a handful of tables) shows a "Record is deleted" message when we try doing "finds (binoculars...

    I am concerned about what I have read about DOS going away. I use Microsoft COBOL internally and for a few of my small clients. Applications were written over 10 years ago and have DOS programs and Batch files. Will I not be able to compile any longer under XP? Will programs continue to...
