Dear all,
(using access 2002 on windows 2k)
Apologies for such a simple question, I just can't seem to sort it out myself.
I have a form called frmProject Details, which includes nested subforms, call logs, contact details etc.
When a user clicks a button, the form frmProject Specific Call Log opens in data entry mode, where they can add details of new activities or calls to the call log (which can then be seen from the subform in frmProject Details).
Why OH WHY can't I get the frmProject Specific Call Log to automatically populate the Project name field with the project that frmProject Details was displaying? AAaagh!
I'm going to have a cup of tea. Thanks so much for the help this board has already provided.

Just post the version of front-end and what you had tried (<Red Eye>Most important, Get back with that tea</Red Eye>).

The tea must have done the job; so silly, I just put a hidden control on the pop up form with the default value =[Forms]![Project Details]![ID]
Works a treat, and the DB actually looks really nice now. All I have to do is delete about a thousand lines of code from buttons I have subsequently deleted...
So obvious.....Rea lly appreciate the offer of help, though
Don't underestimate the power of tea.

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.

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,...
