Hi all,
Here is my problem:
I have received an excel sheet that contains links to other sources (other excel sheets - which are lost).
When I open the file in excel, I get a pop-up that asks me whether I want to update the links to other sources or not.
At this stage (before clicking to answer...
Hi,
UPS's can't provide peaks of power usually generated by an electrical motor starting. So, it is a very bad idea to try to connect a vacuum cleaner on a UPS for example, such a motor taking about 1500W (starting peak can exceed 3000W).
Regarding an answering machine, these are very small...
You car battery will take longer to recharge than the smaller battery that is in your UPS. Thus, some components might heat up and indeed take fire.
I've seen that once: people who have put two car batteries in parralel on an old 650 VA UPS. The UPS took fire after a few months of operation...
Access can be installed only in the runtime version if you purchase the VisualStudio tools from MS. The footprint is much smaller and the enduser usually does not need to have the entire access or office for running your DB.
I however recommend another SQL engine that the JET, MySQL runs under...
You can maybe look into a macro in your word document that will print on a PDF virtual printer.
I use a PDF writer to print my access reports on PDF directly, maybe another option for your code ?
Hope it helps !
Reading the thread, one questions arises:
What front-end do you use ?
I am using MS Access as a front end, which I find very powerful and MySQL as a back-end as I agree with skiflyer.
Thanks,

Hi,
I've found some part of solution here:
http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?SQID=784759&SPID=219&page=1
It is in Perl and prints annoying headers which I don't need, but it works.
I think there is some tuning needed for removing the headers, but I am not good at all in Perl.
tviman,
I differentiate the users in the url I call to get the stats: http://myserver.com/stats/MyClient1SiteName.com would be the stats for MyClient1.
I've tried this based on your conceptual - but useful - thoughts:
<?php
header ("Location: http://myserver.com/stats/MyClient1SiteName.com")...
Why can't they provide separate logins for the stats ???
Right, the headache started with this question I've asked myself....
Anyway, this is how it is, so I need to deal with it.
Wullie: yes my password is quite sensitive, I'd like not to disclose it. We are talking about 20 clients for the...
Hi all,
Yes, you figured it our correctly: I resell hosting and only my master login can access the stats of my clients.
I've done some tests, and apparenlty I need to create a kind of proxy server that will pull the urchin from the site and display it where I want it to be displayed...
tviman,
Thanks for that and sorry for not being clear since the beginning, a good lesson for me.
My case is quite tricky because my remote server uses a login on urchin to get the stats, so I can't ftp, I must display what the server displays.
I'm working on a PHP script around that, I'll...
Hi Wullie,
Thanks for your comments.
Shared hosting, I'm showing single users.
Indeed, someone with access *could* tweak the URL and see someone else's stats if he knows the site name. But if I put it in a frame, it will be already more difficult.
Hi tviman,
This is totally not the case. I am not trying to violate any agreement I might have or anything like that.
I am trying to give access to statistics of visits to my clients who have bought hosting from me. I need to log them on the stat website (the one protected by .htaccess) and...
Jeff,
Thanks for these considerations.
The people will have to log on to my site, so only a selected amount of people will have access and they will actually see a page that is on another site (so I must pull it) and on which I must login myself with a login that I don't want my visitor to...
OK thanks. Unfortunately, I don't have Coldfusion (never used it), but at least I know it is possible.
Anyone else using any other server-side language who has experience with such a problem ?
Ideally PHP or Perl, but I might ask too much....
Thanks !
Hi Wullie,
I find you rather pessimistic ;o)
There should be a way of hiding the credentials in my code (or server-side script) and calling the remote page to display on my site.
I remain optimistic !
Hi Deecee,
I don't control the password of the page that I want to display (I log-in on a remote site and I can't add a user or password). So I have to login with a sort of master password to have access to the particular page that I want to display.
The page is dynamic (the user can select...
