Does anyone know how to prevent the apache server from starting automatically? I have no use for it at the moment, and it's just bogging my computer down. Also, I would like to disable java.exe from being started automatically, too. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Kevin

I'm not sure how much help I'm going to be because I don't know anything about regex's in vb. I had to do something similar, but I did it the hard way: using the instr and mid functions. It looks like you could get the position of the Port ID by using instr, then add the number of characters...

I'm trying to write a report in an access database, but someone has it locked! Is there any way to determine any info about who has it locked so I can go and talk to them? I know the info is out there somewhere, because every now and then I see a pop-up that says "The database has been...

Thanks, Michael. I used a macro to call a function that gets the dates and stores them in global variables. I'm just going to use 2 queries in my report. No problem. Kevin

I have a query (access2000) that prompts users for a date range. I used the following code in the criteria section of the date field in my query: Between [Please enter the start date - mm/dd/yy] And [Please enter the end date - mm/dd/yy] Is there any way to trap this data and store it in a...

I have a query that calls some vb module functions to do a lot of string manipulation. The problem is, my query calls the functions several times for each record to get back the exact same data. Is there a way that I can call the function once, then store the result in a temp variable for each...

Thanks for the quick response! Worked like a charm. Kevin

Does Access provide any regular expression support? I know that the '*' wildcard is supported, but are there any other wildcards that I can use? I'm trying to pull out fields where the date is in the format xx.xx.xx in my query, but I cannot figure out how. I need a wildcard that specifies...

Worked like a charm! I used Chr(10) in my instr call. Kinda wierd, though: I tried using VbCr and VbLf, and neither of them returned what I wanted.... Kevin

Thanks for your help! Haven't tried your suggestions yet, but I think that's exactly what I needed. kevin

I'm trying to pull some information out of a huge memo field. I can find the start of the data I need by using Instr(...) and searching for a specific word that is always there. I'm having trouble finding the end of the data that I want, though. The data that I'm trying to pull out varies in...

put in the ms office cd and choose 'repair office' instead of re-installing. this should fix any problems.

there's a text file that you can modify...but I forgot what it's called. try 'man grub' to find out more info.

windoze is not very friendly towards other operating systems (you might have noticed), so there is really no way to see the linux partitions from windoze...however, as MrTom said, seeing windoze partitions from linux is very easy. you can read/write to the linux partition with no problems...

I got my problem fixed: I made all of the text fields smaller yet, and now I can use them all in a cr formula. I still don't know what the cutoff is, but it seems to be around 200..... Kevin

Ken, Thanks for your help. This seems to be the problem. All of the fields I was trying to use were of size 255 (the max, I think). I reduced all of the sizes for my fields, but cr would only let me use one of the fields: a text field with a length of 10. The other fields (with lengths...

Does anyone know which geforce3 card is the best buy? Or a web site that compares the cards? I don't need to know about the chip itself, but I'd like a comparason of the different cards offered. Thanks. Kevin

In windows, you can download a small program called 'powerstrip' that has lots of good info about your system. If you are using a generic driver, though, it probably won't help too much....I have no idea how to find that stuff out in linux. Who makes the monitor? Have you tried going to the...

Try going into the BIOS (hit escape, or something during boot), and make sure that your cdrom is set as one of the boot devices.

The database has linked tables, but I don't need to use any of them in my formula. I only want to use one table from the database, and it's a native access table. The access database has no joined tables (nothing under the 'relationships' view). When I try to manually type in the field in a...
