Analyze Tool & Lost Data

Hi,

I want to report a problem I had with splitting a table using the
anaylze tool. I started with 92000 records and in the child table
ended up with around 10,000 records. Now I assumed that access did
it's best to remove duplicates and achieve a degree of data
normalization. Which was indeed the case. All well and good until a
few weeks later I discover to my horror.....miss ing data! and so I
repeated the whole scenario and ended up with the same result. Around
200 unique records that existed before the spit disappeared after the
split. In the end I made sure the split didn't remove any duplicates
by include a unique key and then I removed the duplicates with my own
script.

Anyhow, I'd be interested to know if anyone else has had this problem
or knows how this might happen.
Cheers,
Jennifer

I think the .NET framework is great! It's nice, clean and logical; in contradiction to the old Microsoft. It only saddens me that the new Microsoft still doesn't under stand there own rules when it comes to file paths. A lot of Microsoft installers for example, and also installers of other companies, do not work because they handle paths in the following manner:

We have a mature project that suffers long build times because many modules pull in far more than they need. In the long term I would like to refactor to break some of the dependencies, but I would like to start by eliminating unneeded header includes. Is there a tool that can parse a set of source files and identify redundancies?

Just recently I got hired by a large company to evaluate and document a large banking system written in COBOL and stored on the mainframes with DB2. The current documentation is very poorly written, so I basically need to start from the scratch and find out how everything works with little help from others. I am going to need a tool that would allow me to pull all tables from the DB2 so that I could make E-R Diagrams. Also, I'd like for...

guys, Are you aware of any good tool that analyze the source code statically (ie at compile time and not at run time) ?

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.

These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
