running on XP pro
adding vba code, I want to type in 'X = "good"'
when I type the 'X', and a 'space', if I wait a second, the cursor
automatically moves back over the 'space'
when I type the 'X', a 'space' and the '=', if I wait a second, I get
just 'X=' in red (like when you've got a syntax error)
when I quickly type in 'X', '=' and '"', after a second I get 'X = ""'
(making it hard to enter a string)
I created a new MDB and imported everything and the problem went away
for two hours, now it's back
I've compacted and repaired, no luck
I've unchecked all the coding options under tools->options->Module, no
luck
(they're normally all checked except 'keep debug window on top')
this happened a few times in the past 6 months and just restarting the
mdb fixed the problem
but it's happened three times in the past two days, after installing
the last critical XP upgrade and the office upgrade, ms-37 - vba patch
has anyone seen this ? or does anyone know how to rectify the problem
?

It looks to me as a form of spontaneous cursor-movement problem. You
could simlate it just by using the right and left cursor-keys. I don't
think it is an office-defect.
Look for possible hardware-problems (bad keyboard) or
software-initiated cursor-problems. Think of running keyboard-macro's,
remote-control-software on your PC or keyboard-driver problems (some
keyboards have special features and dito drivers). Eventually some
other ill-behaving software like a virus or hacker-tool could be
responsible for these spontaneous key-movements. In any case try
running the same database on another machine to be sure if it is
office- or PC-related.

But on the client's PC, JPG doesn't work (dunno if GIF works or not

A few years ago I built an access97 database and program. It ran fine in a
setup with 4 users.
Earlier this week they upgraded everything to WindowsXP. The access
application and database now only work in single user mode. The program
starts ok and the menu is shown etc. But updating a record isn't possible
they get an error like ".../.../xxx.mdb is invalid"

Hello list,
Is anyone aware of a (light-weight, easy-to-use)
auto-upgrade framework for python scripts?
I find it hard to believe no one has wanted this before,
yet google doesn't find too much relevant stuff.
Thanks,
Best regards,

you start with a small application in access97, then you have more
modules and more...
and you reach the point where tables like 'item' and 'employee' reach
the limit and you
know there's more indexes required for RI to come
does creating a RI programatically instead of the relationship window
still consume one of the 32 indexes ?
does access2000 / 2003 allow more indexes per table ?

I have office 97 which includes access97 and have built many access97 databases and use VB4 as the front end. I have just gotten a new computer which has 1 gig of memory on it and when I try to install office 97 on it. everything installs ok execpt access97 won't run.
I have since tried it on another machine and it seems to be a memory problem. If the computer's memory is more than 512megs. then access97 won't run.
Is there a patch or...

I currently get asked about my usage of "auto". What is it for?
The keyword is clearly superflous here.
In contrast to the huge majority of C/C++ developers I write
definitions very explicitly like that:
int main(char argc, char *argv, char *env) {
try {
auto Exception mainException(1);
mainException.setErrNo(42);

I've got two tables in sql2005 which have an 'ntext' field
when I linked the first table in access97 last week using an odbc data
source the access-field type was 'memo'
when I link the 2nd table today, it is linked as a text(255) field,
ditto for the first table if I link it today
if I link the 2nd table using access2003 (and the same odbc data
source) it is linked as a memo field

Overview:
Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
