Good Morning Everyone,
I had a idea that I woulld like to pose to the forum. I have no idea if this is possbile but from what I could find searching it does not appear to be.
I created a datebase of my writings with two forms, one for creating records and one for searching records. If I wanted to open Word to read one of my writings from the results of a query by double-clicking on the title, is that possible?
In other words I want to run a search from my search form, have the results display in the subform on my main search form, double-click on of the titles in the results and have MS Word open the writing in a Word document.
Thanks,
Doug

hi Doug!
1. You could make an attachment field in your writings database.
When entering a new Writing you then attach a word file to that record.
Later on you can access to that word document by opening the attachment.
looks like an e-mail attachment :-)
To make an attachment field, go to table design, add a new field, and from Field type select 'attachment' (only Access 2007)
2. The other way is to select 'Hyperlink' from Field type. Than you can put a link inside pointing to your Word document.
best,
H.

tblCourses one to many to tblEvents.
A course may have an intro workshop (a type of event), a mid course
workshop, a final exam. Or any combination. Or something different in the
future.
At the moment the printed output is usually going to Word. It's turning into
an unholy mess, because I'm having to prepare umpteen different Word
templates, and the queries that drive them, depending on what events a
course has.

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.
