AskWoody LoungerCan someone help with this then?
Cot A = 1/Tan A = B
I have B, what do I do to it to get A? (in radians)
I need A in radians to then put it into the second equation above to get J
A= 0.090757121103705 Radians
Cot A = 1/System.Math.Tan(0.090757121103705) = 10.9881501380931

AskWoody LoungerAs an aside to Fred’s last comment
And isn’t this a strange topic? A few years ago, 4GB seemed vast. But now we’re routinely bumping up against its limits. Yow!
I can remember years ago at the local computer club when an average PC ran on 4Meg, someone brought in their computer to show off Myst and the general poo-hooing that went up about the “decadence” of have 64Meg of memory JUST to run a game!
It really makes me smile every time I think about it.

AskWoody LoungerThe laptop is a Toshiba see here with a multi card reader. I have tried it with an Olympus and an SD card and it does the same with either card
EDIT: Just noticed that the laptop thinks that the card reader is a disk drive

AskWoody LoungerI have stumbled onto the cause (but not the reason) of the original slowdown. it is related to the card reader.
After getting UBCD4Win and copying off all the desired files and backing up settings, I then reformatted and loaded windows (note: learned that some windows keys are tied to particular sp release disks) in loading all the various drivers I discovered that when I removed the flash card from the reader the system started pausing as it originally did. As soon as I re-inserted the card it reverted to normal. I then rebooted the system and removed the card and found that the boot slowed down as in my original post until I replaced the flash card, upon which the boot picked up again and completed loading.
Any Ideas?

AskWoody LoungerHere is a ready built firefox extension that allows you to change profiles or load a second one as well
I found it while browsing for something else. Talk about serendipity!

AskWoody LoungerJohn,
Many thanks, your maths was spot on!
Gfamily,
I’ve never played with solver before but thanks for the suggestion.

AskWoody LoungerThanks Hans, it works fine
-
Weyrman
AskWoody LoungerUmm, thanks Hans but the coding is a bit beyond me. Could you write the code for a button to open a file picker window to select a file to be opened and read by the code?
This what I need to emulate:
Code:CommonDialog1.ShowOpen lblDetails.Caption = "Counting Records" Me!ProgressBar2.Max = 1 Open CommonDialog1.FileName For Input As #1
Thanks in advance.

AskWoody LoungerThanks Gary! Just the type of hint I was looking for.

AskWoody LoungerJohn,
Thanks, that’s what I needed to know.
Hans,
It’s a case of trying to keep the boss happy if possible before having to tell him that you can’t do it.

AskWoody LoungerJanuary 21, 2009 at 12:20 am in reply to: Dealing with a missing value (Access 2003 xp sp3) #1143091Thanks Hans,
I built a new query combining both sources as you suggested and it works fine.

Weyrman
AskWoody LoungerThank you Hans
-
Weyrman
AskWoody LoungerJohn, I see what you mean. I’ll try putting the emp number as a default value

Weyrman
AskWoody LoungerHans, A slight diversion in reference to your post of using
CurrentDb.Execute “DELETE * FROM tblContTimeCards”
Is the syntax right to replace a query with the following SQL
DELETE tblOT.*, tblOT.jdate
FROM tblOT
WHERE (((tblOT.jdate)=DMax(“tblOT.jdate”,”tblOT”)));with
CurrentDb.Execute “DELETE * FROM tblOT WHERE (((tblOT.jdate)=DMax(‘tblOT.jdate’,’tblOT’)))” ?
I am delighted with the above code that you showed me as I have been attempting to streamline my DB and being able to replace a few queries with 1-liners is great!
