    Splitting a long long structured string in a field of a table

    Hi Ken, Thanks for your soon reply. As I'm capturing the data from Dos plattform I'm not able to import-export the file. It is just poping in the field of the table. I'm converting the paralel data from the Dos computer to serial data and getting it via serial port. I did try to use Excel as a...

    retrieving rs232 data from a printer

    Thanks to me! I did it and no thanks to commercial or arrogance helping. I put a computer to capture printer data in a pretty good way, no needing boxes or taps. If anyone needs to know how, just post and I'll let you do it free of costs. Again, thanks leocarter.

    Dsiplaying last /new record first in Contineous Sub Form

    Try an unorthodox way I did a lot and got great results: Put the new record in a subform alone (do a form with it) and put it into the form over the other subform. You probably will need to set transparent back and border and a minimun size to avoid the subform cover the other. With patience you...

    Dsiplaying last /new record first in Contineous Sub Form

    Hi, I have the idea that a Query may help you. You may construct it as a base for the subform. And of course, in the query may sort anything as you want. Leonardo

    retrieving rs232 data from a printer

    I don't know why, to give thanks for an advertising (obviously is one)may disturb somebody. I did open black box page and it looked great to me.
