    XP Newbie Needs Dual Boot Assistance...

    98SE and XP do work well together, however it would be easier to have 98SE installed first and then install XP to the 2nd partition. This is the easiest and less messy way, is this possible?? DEC If it helps, let me know, if it doesn't, let me know. It's the only way I'll learn.

    Excel sort and delete duplicates

    Spot on Hasit, the formula for 'highlighting' duplicates has done the trick. I can now spot the duplicates, sort the list and delete the duplicates. It's still a manual option, but I can do in 30 seconds, what I used to do in 30 minutes!! Many thanks. DEC If it helps, let me know, if it...

    Is there an easy way to create say 100 new user accounts with User Mnager?

    Updating Tables in Access

    Yes, checked that. The Child and Master fields are correct. But adding a record to the Main Form doesn't update the Tables that the Sub Forms are derived from. Is there something I need to do as an 'On Update' ?? Sorry, clutching at straws at the moment. I have a work around, where if some...

    Updating Tables in Access

    Thanks for that, I have now the main form and three subforms. However I still can't get the foreign keys to reflect the primary key in the main form. What should the relationships be?

    Save a document as text from document

    Does anybody know of a way (macro) to save a Word document by using an item of text within that document?
