    Access "batch" question

    My company is transitioning business software. In the interim, we are forced to transfer data from an IBM uniVerse database to a SQL 2000 database. I have been using a combination of Excel/ODBC and DTS to transfer the data. It works well, but it is a several step process. I've begun to...

    Emails with attachments not sending attachment when forward

    It has been my general experience that in order to forward an attachment, you have to save the attachment to the hard drive, and then attach it to the message you are forwarding, similar to attaching a file to any email. I have yet to see a better way to handle this, and I have Outlook 2003. Bob

    Good day all!! I have an odd question. I'm using the drop-down form box in Word, and it appears to have a capacity of 50 characters, including spaces. Is this true, and if so, is there a workaround so that I can have a string longer than 50 characters? TIA, Bob

    Licensing

    I've used Sitekeeper in demo mode, and it will give you information about licensing and it can also give you a hardware inventory. It's been a while since I've used it, but I think the demo version allows you to inventory 10 systems at a time. http://www.diskeeper.com/sitekeeper/sitekeeper.asp...

    checking for banner text

    We have Nortel 4.15 clients with a Contivity 1500. I was told by my ISP (who is administering the Contivity) that the banner text is used to communicate a security disclaimer from the ISP. However, if you are getting stuck at that point, maybe the banner text can be disabled.
