Display field problem in MS Access 2000 (OS-Windows XP)

We have MS Access 2000 Application (on Network- file server) and it
workd fine as intended. However in one of our Windows XP computer
(workstation) in bookd jobs module 10 digit field shows 8 digits only
and than we need to scroll with cursor to see last two digits. I have
tried to change the display settings of monitor and even I replaced the
monitor but still it shows 8 digit only. Is there any other settings
for paricular workstaion I need to do?

Also when that paricular job we try to print on HP Laserjet 8150
printer (all printer tried but same result) it prints 8 digit (when we
view it shows 10 digit).

Any suggestions?

Make sure that the Font you are using is available on that particular
workstation.

Compare the display settings on a machine that displays the value
properly and one that doesn't (right click on desktop in Windows, go to
properties, then settings, then screen resolution. Also click the
Advanced button and compare the font dpi settings).
If that doesn't resolve, go to control panel in Windows and compare the
settings in 'Regional and Language Options' between the two machines.

Following on from an earlier post... I can reliably corrupt a record by doing the following ... Open two separate but identical front ends on one PC each linking to the same back end. Edit a records in one front end and leave it unsaved. Edit the same record in the other front end and save the change. Save the change in the first front end - this pops up the Write Conflict message to which I click Save.

Hi All, I've recently installed a program written in Access 2000 on a laptop. The laptop had an existing Office 2000 Pro which of course included Access. But the program acts oddly (more oddly than I would have programmed, anyway). On everyday controls, everything acts normally. But on some controls (and they're always the same ones) the operator can't add or change data. Take a birthday field as an example. If the client was born...

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,...
