List of objects at left of screen disappears

I have an Access database that suddenly opens without the list of
objects (You know, Tables, Queries, Forms, Reports . .) at the left of
the screen. The objects still exist - for instance, I can make the db
open with a particular form up - but it makes it hard to add new
objects. Compact/Repair database doesn't help - in fact, it might have
caused it. The db is just the program/form front end for a 350MB
data-containing database, and I noticed that it was taking up 400MB
instead of a few hundred KB and repaired it. It shrank properly but
what good is it if I can't get at its objects?

Thanks//Zeke Hoskin

Press the F11 key, does the database window open? Go to Tools|Startup.. . is
"Display Database Window" unchecked? Go to Windows|Unhide. .., is the
database window listed as a hidden window?

I find that when I use list-style-image with galeon or mozilla, padding is inserted between the symbol image and the following list text, while under IE 5.0 it seems to be inserted before the image instead of after it. li.up { list-style-image: url(../bin/arrow.png); height: 1.4em; margin-left: -0.4em; }

I have a long list of items that the user will be able to select from. When they select an item, I'd like to have more detailed information appear on the right side of the screen. I've already got a datagrid set up with the clicking working correctly. Problem is, I'd like to have the list be scrollable but leave the info on the right alone. What can I put around the datagrid so that the entire thing becomes scrollable? TIA - Jeff.

Hello everybody. I've this problem: I'm making a jpg moving horizontally from left to right in my page. I'd like to make it start moving from the left off-screen side. I tried using position negative values either defining the <style> of the img object or in the Javascript function that produces the image movement, but it doesn't work. The starting point from the images is always on screen. Anybody can turn on the light?? Thanks! ...

Overview: 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,...
