I am new to Access and have one small problem I can't seem to solve. I have
a database with multiple order records for people. Each person has a unique
ID, and is on the datbase multiple times, but only one of each record has
the address, and phone, etc. I need to copy the data from that record into
all records with the same IDs.
I know I can creat multiple tables, but I need it in a single table so it
can be exported to a mailing/accounting program.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Copying the data from that record into all records with the same IDs is the
wrong thing to do! Create a query that includes the table with the address,
phone, etc and the table with the data you want to export. You should already
have a relationship between these tables so you should see a line joining the
tables on the ID field. Export the query to your mailing/accounting program.

Hello All,
I have a form (FrmA) with a subform (SubFrmB) embedded in it. SubFrmB also
has a subform embedded in it (SubFrmC) The form's recordsource is based on a
table (TblA). SubFrmB's recordsource is also based on a table (TblB).
SubFrmC's recordsource is also based on a table (TblC).
There is a one-to-many relationship between TblA (one) and TblB (many).

Hi,
I need a SECURE way to copy parts of a file. I'm having files which contains
a whole bunch of records. In one 'fysical' file I'm having one or more
logical files.
What I need to do is to copy a logical file (a part of the fysical file)
into a new file. But the 'big' problem is: these records contains
bankstatements, so I can't take the risk that there would be a record
missing, or even one little charachter. The copy I make has 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:

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,...
