Okay, here's a question I should have posted a very very long time ago.
I'd like to prevent the user from being able to bypass certain error
handling and updating functions that are programmed into the "Save"
command button. Some of my apps are still running in A97, but most are
now running in A2K or subsequent versions.
Is it possible to disable the use of hotkey combinations such as
"Ctrl+S" in an Access application? If so, how? And does the answer vary
depending on the version?
Is this an issue that can only be addressed in the OS?

You put your code in the wrong event. Move most of it to the
Form_BeforeUpda te event procedure. The Save command button just runs
RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
That way, your special Save code executes regardless of how people try
to save a record.

Look at using the Autokeys macro for universal disabling.
Create a new Macro
Display the Macro Name column
In the Macro Name column type ^S
In the Action column Select Beep
Save the Macro and call it AutoKeys
That's it, Ctrl-S is now disabled in the database

I have several VB forms which are all inherit a standard template form

I'd like to have the paste button disabled when the clipboard is
empty, but I'm not sure how I should do this. Ideally, I suppose I'd
like to constantly monitor the clipboard for data, (in a thread?) but
I'm not even sure how I'd...

I have a datagrid that successfully allows editing and updating (with
dataadapter.update command). I want the user to be able to edit the
"text" in the datagrid, but i DON'T want the user to be able to DELETE
rows.
The OleDbCommandBuilder automatically creates the DELETE SQL statement.
Is there any way I can disable it? If not, what approach should I be
using?
Thanks!

I am using VB6.
I want that in my whole program the user can only enter data as numbers (0-9), alphabetical (a-z) and . (dot/point).
How can I disable all the other keys?
I know the code how to permit the keys in the keypress event of any textbox
by using this code:
Dim comp As Boolean
comp = Chr(KeyAscii) Like ""
If Chr(KeyAscii) = vbBack Then Exit Sub

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:
