I have 8 tables in Access 2000, 1 Main table (Member Details) then 7
Tables that relate to this table using an ID from table 1. In all
there are 262 fields in the 9 tables.
I want to design a VB front end that has 6 tabs per record and when you
click on the ADO Data Control you go through the records and all 262
fields from the different tables that are related.
Is this best done in Access (Query) or other way. Not forgetting there
are 262 fields.
How do I do this.

Even if you uses Oracle, there is a real data structure problem here. The
Social Security system runs with less distinct fields; how did yours get
this bloated? Try running the table analyzer. I can almost predict that it
will find many fields that really should be records -i.e. phone1, phone2,
phone3, etc. when there really should be one just phone field and one
phonetype field.
As you may have already discovered, Access/Jet has a limit of 255 controls
per object. Can't see how you could fit all that on one form, even if you
decide that you want to.

I would use a seperate form for each table and then insert these into a
tabbed form (as sub forms) using the ID as the link field.

I'm developing an application for medical use that will be used to
capture patient background and visit data. The application will have
approximately 50 forms, with an average of about 20 fields each-- so a
total of 1000+ fields. Almost always, the fields are unique to a
particular form--and it will be pretty unlikely that new forms and
fields will be added--although not out of the realm of possibility.
There will also be a search...

Hi,
I have several large XML files (500-700 MB) that get updated once a day. I
have an app that will need to Query (read only operations is all I'll ever
need) these files. Obviously, querying a file this large will be somewhat
of a challenge because it can't be loaded into memory all at once. Also, I
am skeptical of the speed of Xpath/Xquery.
I am wondering if I shouldn't just create a table in SQL server, then create

I have a table with 50 fields that receive input depending on whether
that input came in from a 'shaker' form or a 'conveyor' form. Input
from the 'conveyor' form might populate 25 fields while input from the
'shaker' form will populate another 20-25 fields but not the same
fields (however there are about 10 common fields to both). I'd
thought about using two tables (one for 'conveyor' and the other for
'shaker') but thought I'd try just...

I have the following problem (MS SQL 2000):

Two problems - (1) I now realise that I'm limited to 8060 characters, and (2) users seem to think even 5000 chars might be too small on occasions (the table is for recording laboratory problems, so the amount of text depends on what the local quality manager...

I have a query (SQL below) that operates on values entered by users
into an unbound form to append a record to tblAdmin. I do not under-

This is mainly a speed question.
In this example: I have a QuotesHdr table that has a few memo fields. If
these memo fields are used extensively by some users, and if their are a

into a separate table? The thinking here is that, for Quotes selection

that the entire record comes down over...

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.
