Hello,
I have a button on a form that brings up the dialog box you get when
using Access's menu to do Insert/Object:
RunCommand acCmdInsertObje ct
I'd like to over-ride some default settings on that dialog, such as
pre-selecting "Microsoft Word document" instead of the first one.
Can someone point me in the right direction please?
Thanks for your time

If you want more control over how the dialog operates, so you can specify
the file types, the initial directory, the title of the dialog etc, you need
to call the Windows File Open dialog instead.
See:
Call Windows File Open/Save Dialog box

If I submit my for using a get action the resulting page loads . If I
use a post action I get an error page saying "The page cannot be

This code has been tested on a Win2003 server, IIS6, PHP 5.0.3, mySQL

The problem server is a Win2k server, IIS5, PHP 5.0.4, mySQL 4.1.11.

I'm reading a book on design patterns, and the author seems to enjoy
using this word a lot. I've looked it up on Dictionary.com and still don't
understand how it applies to the context of software development. Consider
this quote:
"The primary, common goal of these patterns is to decouple orthogonal
software components."
The author absolutely LOVES the word "orthogonal", but I can't tell from

Hi
How do developers that use the SDK (not full-blown VS IDE) create dialog
boxes?
Do they type out the DIALOG resource section of the .rc file manually? Use a
third-party program? Or cheat, and hop on a mate's PC that has got VS IDE
whenever they want to create a dialog box?
Or do they use a dialog editor that is actually included in the SDK that I'm
failing to find?

How can I get state of dynamically created controls (RadioButton, CheckBox,
TextBox.Text) on post back when I click submit button?
The only way I know is by traversing Response.Form enumberator;
Response.Form.GetEnumerator(), etc. while, identifying specific controls by
programmatically assigned unique id (e.g. MyButton_AnswerID_123).
However, I am not sure if that is the proper way. What is the common
practice?

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,...
