Visaul basic syntaxes...

Intention :

Customer, Sales Order, Purchase order) applications

Hi We need some advice: We are thinking of upgrading our Access database from Access 2000 to Access 2004. How stable is MS Office 2003? (particularly Access 2003). We are just a small company and this is a big decision for us(!) It's not just the money it's committing to an new version of Access!

Hi, I find myself using static methods more than I probably should, so I am looking for some advice on a better approach. For example, I am writing an app that involves quite a bit of database operations on purchase orders and inventory. I have created a PurchaseOrder class and Inventory class to encapsulate operations like creating POs, finding items, etc. These two classes are used extensively from different parts of the app.

She had no concept of any of the principles of database design, so what i'm left with is a junkpile. The only reason I...
