    AS400 vs. AIX?

    Thanks all. I just found a wealth of info on AS/400 stuff. All this time I thought as/400 was and OS not the architecture. I have recently learned the differences. Thank you for the help all. I now need some dummy books on as/400, any suggestions? Thanks.

    AS400 vs. AIX?

    Can anyone explain to me if there is a difference between AIX and AS400? And if anyone knows about an AS400 emulator where I can download it? Thanks

    NT RESTORE

    Hmm.. interesting. I am running a scsi hotswap system. I am removing 2 4 gig drives and replacing them with one 18gig, I wonder if it is pointing to the wrong place, not sure how that could happen, but it makes sense. It booted fine until I restored everything. Thanks. I will take a look.

    Expression builder telling me I made something too complex.

    I am getting ready to go too. Thanks for all your help. Maybe if you get a chance some other time you can help some more. I tried adding it as another field, but I need them grouped. There are records with identical data except the date which makes those records need to appear as one with...

    Expression builder telling me I made something too complex.

    oH! GOD I am so screwed! Now, when I add that field it gives that same message about being too complex. I take grouping off but that defeats the purpose of the query.

    Expression builder telling me I made something too complex.

    Oh wait, I got it to work, but now I got the same dang message about expression being to complex.... Paul can I send this database to you for you to look at and maybe see what I've done?

    Expression builder telling me I made something too complex.

    Paul you rock. But this just doesn't seem to work. You may need to hold my hand on this one. I went to the modules menu, selected NEW, then I pasted what you typed into that. I already have one module in there for converting dates...it works. This one still gives me the undefined thing. I...

    Expression builder telling me I made something too complex.

    Man that looks great, but when i went to run it, it gave me the error: Undefined Function 'Getdashes' in expression. I will be the first to admit, I am not familiar with modules and the VB side of access, but what I did was created a new module and copied what you typed into it. (I did...

    Expression builder telling me I made something too complex.

    For instance, the field contains alphanumeric data. In that data should reside a color surrounded by dashes. For instance... 10% Flannel 30% Jersey 60% Cotton - White - Spun poly I am looking to extract the color "White" into it's own field for a report.

    Expression builder telling me I made something too complex.

    I actually am only running this against one query which was run against 2 tables. It isn't that big of a dataset. Thanks though, I can't seem to think of another way to get the information I need from the field. THANKS!

    Expression builder telling me I made something too complex.

    The following error is one I got when making what I would think is a simple expression: Expr1: InStr([STARTPOINT],[DESC1],"-") I am pretty sure it is not typed incorrectly, just that it may contain incorrect statements. "This expression is typed incorrectly, or it is too complex...

    How do I use one set of quotes as text?

    I actually found it. To get a single set of quotes in as part of text, it has to be four sets of quotes i.e.: Field1+&quot;/&quot;+Field2+&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot; That's the answer thanks!!!! all.

    How do I use one set of quotes as text?

    How do I use just one set of quotes in a formula as a text item. For instance, I want 2 fields added together with a / between them and at the end of those fields I want a &quot; added to that. Crystal keeps telling me the set is incomplete basically. Any ideas?
