Finding Jet SQL Help

NeoPa

Introduction:
This seems like a very straightforward topic. Why would anyone need help finding MS Access Help related to this topic?
I can't really answer that except to say that I know from experience that many do. I myself spent a great deal of time under the impression that it was non-existent.

How to Find it:
Different versions of MS Access structure their help systems differently, so don't expect it to be in the same place for each version.

The most important point to remember is that it is all found in the MS Access Help system and not in the Visual Basic Help system.

Here are the two methods I use to find what I need. They produce slightly different results, so both may come in handy sometime.

  1. From MS Access select Help / Microsoft Access Help.

    Navigate to the Contents section (however this is done in the version you're using) and look down the list for the topic that most closely matches Microsoft Jet SQL Reference.
  2. As above, but instead of using the Contents tree system, search in the Answer Wizard for the string "jet sql". This should bring up a short list including a fairly full reference of all the reserved words for Jet SQL.
Conclusion:
Although the help for Jet SQL is quite hard to find, the information in there can be invaluable for anyone working directly with the SQL itself.

I need to be able to retrieve a unique ID from a users PC. I needs to be something a user could not easily change, like the computer name. Could someone point me in the right direction to find the information found in Windows system information? Or maybe there is a better method. Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions. Dave M.

Hi, I am wondering what is the best way to find out which ASP.NET sessions are still active. Here is the reason: I have a custom control which can upload files. It saves the files in a folder named after the SessionID. At Session_End, I do some cleanup and delete the "session folder". However, if the PC is rebooted before the session times out, the clean up never happens. So what I wanted to do isL: In my CleanUp method, check all...

Hi there! I'm using PHP to create a simple, dynamic MySQL SELECT query. The user chooses a selection from a HTML Form SELECT element's many options and submits the form via a POST action. The SELECT query is built as follows: $itemtype = stripslashes(trim($_POST));

Hi there, I have a website that functions fine locally, but when published to the server it develops a bottleneck during loading some of the pages. Basically what happens is the page loads to about 25% then it freezes for anything from 10 - 40 seconds, before suddenly loading the rest of the page. Of course I understand that this could be down to some code on the page locking the thread or suchlike, but I would like to be able to be...

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.

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,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. 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.
