I'm using Access 2000, and have a continuous form with subtotals on
the bottom of the form. The formula for the subtotal is
=[unbFull]-[calcSum]
The calcSum field is simply a Sum of a currency field in the form.
The unbFULL field is in the report header, filled when the form is
opened through the OpenArgs property.
I tried putting a conditional format on the field, stating that if the
field value was greater than 0 to bold the field and shade the
background.
Sometimes it works like a charm - and at other times it appears to go
into an unending loop.. The field blinks repeatedly - the system is
frozen while it's blinking away...
I read in an earlier post someone had a similar problem when working
with a subform. No solution was found - this is similar but without
the subform issue. I've checked Microsoft's KB with no luck. Anyone
seen this behaviour? Thanks in advance!

As I recall, this is one of many bugs in Access 2000 that do not occur in
Access 2002. Personally, I fond 2000 too buggy to bother with. Upgrade if
you can.
Alas, not a solution for this customer yet. I'm keeping some of their
97 Access databases IN 97 though... that's for sure!! Thanks Steve.

Hello all!
For quite some time now, I've got the following problem:

ACCESS process stays active and that process can only be terminated by
pressing ++ and then terminate the process.
I searched the entire internet and found out that there could be two

I have an A2000 database in which I have a continuous form with a tick
box. There is also a text box with a conditional format that is based on
the expression , if it's true then change the background
colour.
In A2000 it works great, but in A2003 the background doesn't always
change and when it does it only changes when the record looses the
focus.
Any way around this? Is it a bug? Or have they "improved" it?

to bold if certain conditions are met. However, when the conditions

When the conditional formatting is removed it displays all the data as

I have many text fields with conditional formatting applied,
specifically when the condition is "Field Has Focus". Without any
events associated with the fields the conditional formatting works
perfectly. However, I have code that runs under the ON CLICK event. The
code changes the focus to other controls, which means the conditional
formatting is no longer displayed. This part makes sense to me.
Here's what doesn't make sense. The last...

Hello,
I have conditional formatting set up on a subform based on a calculated
value in the underlying query. For instance, if Sales are >$1000, the
query displays "Yes," otherwise it displays "No." The conditional
formatting is set up to read the 'Yes' or 'No' value and color the text
accordingly.
I have an event in the subform that allows users to update the sales.
It actually runs an update query behind the scenes. What I want to...

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:
