Thanks kjv1611. I have another question, just curiosity. If I concatenate a cell, can the contents be made permanent. In other words, can the concatenated data be fixed so it is no longer dependend on the parent cells?
Thanks for the help on this one. It worked beautifully,
That is it! What the deal is I just rolled out about 50 new laptops. I need to create a sharepoint document with the IP, mac address, etc. The mac address field should normally look something like 23.rt.45.3g.45.gj (not a valid address, but the format is right), what I got is more like...
I could, of course, use left * starting at, etc. but I would think you could just create a cell format with the . and paste the cells, but apparently not, at least as far as I can tell.
Thanks again Linney. I finally decided to keep my new installation on the new drive and reinstall my software. It allowed me to start with a clean drive, since I install some software temporarily, which slows down my system. JS
Linny, Thanks for the info. It helped me to access my files on the hard drive. I can now import them to my new drive. I wonder if you know how I can access the boot.ini file on my old drive. This would allow me to repair it, which would mean I would not have to reinstall my programs. Thanks...
I have looked, and could not find a solution for the problem I have. I was having problems with Windows XP Pro on my laptop. I decided to reinstall XP. During install, on reboot, I received an error message. Everytime it reboots, it reverts to install, then reboots, in a loop. I know I can...
Help!! A company I do work for has had a crash in the Domain server. Here is a brief background. This is a nursing home in a small town. Noone knows who set up the network. The system has a domain controller (W2000Server), and a database server (NT4 Server). They called me and said the computer...
I cannot get this to work. IIF([wholenm] = "," , 1, 2)
also tried IIf([wholenm]= *","*, 1, 2) no luck always get "2".
The field wholenm has this format (Smith, John), problem is some people at this company just entered (John Smith). I need to use instring and lenght to pull first name...
Help, I am a network and database consultant. Problem is that some of my clients are small, so I have to be everything. Hardware troubleshooting is my weak suit, and I normally tell my clients that they would be better off buying new equipment rather than paying me to fix older systems. I would...
Wow, this thread has grown to Biblical proportions. In case any one is still interested; I think the raster vs. vector discussion has been run into the ground so to put in my two cents, CorelDraw is equivalent to Adobe Illustrator (drawing (vector art)). Corel PhotoPaint is equivalent to Adobe...
Ooops, my bad. I didn't pay attention to your code. I see that you are saving the results to excel. You could of course still follow my suggestion, and then analyze in excel. Sorry for the bad, Jim
I am assuming that your only reason for doing this is so that you can view individual records at once, and that you are doing this from MS Access. If so, do you need to use code? or is it ok for your needs to create the query and click the new object button and create a form based on the query?
Jim
I have a query which I use as a recordset for a report. In this report, there is a text field where the report needs to return only the items on the first line (ie. everything left of the first carriage return). I had created a field using x:= Left([fieldname],InStr(1,[fieldname],"...
Help! I manage a client server dbase with the tables split to the server, and each client with his/her own specialized application. One day last week, I came in to the office and someone informed me that there was a problem with the computers. I found corrupt data is one record in the table. I...
Thanks for the response Heather. Yes you are correct on all counts. I did use autonumber to creat unique records and used this autonumber field to link the two tables. The problem is that the archived customer records no longer are linked (related) to the services once they are moved. I have...
