Larry...
I have already created accounting software packages for several
businesses in my area. I just want to brush up on some of the programming
in VBA that is different than mine and see new approaches.
I was in the updates center the other day before I received your message
and found the update that I needed. If this goes through your advice has
been very useful and appreciated.
I have been programming in Access since 2.0 and have enjoyed the
continual advancements that have propelled from that simple yet at the time
powerful database program. I now use both browsers, Mozzilla and Outlook.
Once I buy a new laptop I think most of the problems that keep reoccurring
will disappear.
