Can anybody please tell me what the exclamation mark between materials and publisher mean?
This was copied nad pasted from another table which doesn't work on this form?
[Materials]![Publisher]
How can i take data from another table and list it onto a report??
Does that data table need to be binded to the report?

[Materials]![Publisher] should indicate the control named 'Publishers' on the form named 'Materials'.
As for the second part of your question, " How can i take data from another table and list it onto a report?? Does that data table need to be binded to the report?", I think it sounds like you are trying to build a report with elements from two or more different tables? .... in which case you would need to: - build a query to join the tables,
- extract the data you want for the report,
- and then build the report based on that query
A form might have controls bound to tables or queries, but to the best of my knowledge a report does not.

If this is on a form in a control then it is the Publisher field in the Materials table. Open the form in design view and check the properties for this textbox. Go to the data tab and look at the Control source. This should be a dropdown list of all fields available to this form. Look for the Publisher field.

Hi,
In the code below (not pretty I know but it's an early version :-P) I'm
having problems reading the data object back in. If I move the reading
code to immediately after the section where it is written ( commented
out in code) then it reads in OK. However, when I move the code to the
right place ( as shown here) it throws an IO exception. Both the Filter
class and it's constituent class implement Serializable and it would seem

Hello. I'm writing an application that writes to a file a month, day, year, number of comments, then some strings for the comments. So the format for each record would look like:

Now, I wrote some code to read these records, and it works perfectly for every date I've tried it on, except when the day is 26. I tried saving a record for 6/26/2004 and 7/26/2004 and it read it in as the day, year, and number of...

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.
Here is my compilation command:
g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp
