Hi:
I know there are mixed views about the switchboard function, but i would like to consider
using it anyway. One snag I have found is that you create a Main Switchboard, and put some
headings in it, then insert some switching lines some of which go to lower level boards.
The lower level boards pu\ick up the same headings as the main board! I would like to have
headings such as:
Main menu
Client Menu
Associates Menu
Report Menu
etc.
How do you change headings in lower level switchboards?
Regards

In Switchboard Design View use the FIELDS drop-down and select Name. As the
switchboard goes from menu to sub-menu, that name is shown. I use this at
the top of the switchboard so that I can see where I am (I have 2 databases
merged - almost identical switchboards/sub-menus and I need to know where I
am!!)

Found it, it works perfect!
It is 'TextItem' that you want to add.
Thnx,

I have created a switchboard, created using Access 2000. If I put the
mouse anywhere on the form, outside of the checkboxes and scroll the
wheel backwards, I get the following error.
Run-Time Error '-2147217900(8004e14)':
Syntax Error (missing operator) in query expression in
'>0 and ='
I know that the Switchboard probably doesn't cater for this event but
sometimes you can't help twiddling the wheel can you?

I did some customizing on my switchboard (changing colors and adding

will not open the new switchboard. The button just goes in and out and that
is it.
So, I decided to create a new switchboard and scrap the old one...

I am trying to create a Switchboard using the Switchboard Manager in MS
Access
2000. I have managed to get the table created for the switchboard, however
it hasn't actually created the form.
Hopefully I will have a main switchboard which will in turn lead to three
sub switchboards.
Can anybody tell me how to get the form automatically created from the
Switchboard Table if at all possible?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

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,...
