I have a database with several tables, one of which is [Master Data
Table]
I use this to bring up a form so you can unlock the record (set by
using a yes no box on the data input form to prevent unauthorised
tweaking once the record is completed).
I would like to move to the last record but 10 to give the form 10
lines of the last entries, rather than one that is achieved by using
goto record.... acLast
I have tried using sql in the form open event such that I can obtain
the total number of records, take away 10 and then use the offset
parameter to move to the required records. But I cannot either get
the syntax rightusing it as a straight expression in the On Open event
of the record unlock form, as in:
Dim numofrecords as Long
numofrecords = (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM [Master Data Table])
or alternatively by using a subquery as an expression in the original
query that underlies the record unlock form. It is probably just a
syntax problem, but I cant find a good resource to give examples of
this usage. I can see using SQL being quite useful to filter and
obtain relevant data for forms requiring statistical inquiry, but am
jiggered if I know how at this time
Any help gratefully appreciated.

Check out the Top predicate. Something like this may work (from the

SELECT TOP 10 Orders.*

ORDER BY Orders.OrderDat e DESC;
Don't forget the Order By clause.

I'm after a little bit of advice on how to do something.

I have 100 tabes in an Access database, every table has 1 filed with

duplicates.
Here is the criteria:
The computer should pick up the first name of Table1 and check that
name in that table (Table1) as well as the remaining 99 tables.
Continue this till we reach the last name (record) of the 100th table.

I'm new to C#, and i need help with the following problem:
I have a DataTable called 'Nomes', part of a DataSet with various datatables.
I am searching a record (that i know it exists) in that DataTable. I need two fields from that DataTable to compose the key.
Example: i'm looking for the record where field 'Codigo' = '000100' and field 'CPostal' = '3000-001'.

I have two date fields.
PaymentDate - is set to default to today : =Date()
MeetingDate - is going to find the next meeting date after the PaymentDate
So using April as an example:
If today's date is 4/22/2008 , I want the MeetingDate field to look up the
NEXT meeting this month... this would show as 4/23/2008.
If today's date is 4/29/2008, then I need the query to find the NEXT meeting
date which would be 5/28/2008.

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.

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,...
