I'm working with Access 2K and seem to be getting some behavior that
contradicts the documentation. First, the help says:
"Note The Activate event doesn't occur when a form receives focus back
from a dialog box, popup, or another form."
This doesn't seem to be the case. The form activate consistently fires when
focus moves from another form.
Secondly, the activate event for a report. I am seeing it fire consistently
if I open the report acViewPreview, but never if I open the report
acViewNormal. I can find no mention of this discrepancy in the docs.
Am I missing something here, or are the docs wrong?

In a report, the Activate ONLY fires in Preview, never in Print.

I'm still looking for an answer. Am I wrong or is the documentation? Or,
are there conditions where it won't fire?

Hi,
I am trying to use the document.referrer to get the referrer of my
home page. Occationally, I get the value of
'blockedReferrer'. Actually how this happen, how the client blocked the
function of document.referrer. I just want to verify how this could be
done within the browser e.g. IE, Netcape and so on... what Internet
option have them activate or not activate to make me to have the value
'blockedReferrer'?
Thanks in advance.

When or should the form Activate event be used?
I'm working on an existing application that excutes Me.Refresh on the
form Activate (Form_Activate) event. This event causes the form to try
to update the current record when it should not be. I have never used
this in any of my applications.

So im working on an applicaiton that all pretty much sits on a single

When the application completes a task, I'd like it to use

Stop the flashing.

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.

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,...
