You could try to adjust the monitor settings via Windows to a lower refresh rate or display quality and see if that helps. Searching on your model will find some help perhaps. I searched on monitor comes on for a second and goes blank and got literally billions of hits. Some of those are instructions on how to repair it. You need the right parts though. And the gumption to install them. I've fixed a few, mostly laptops and it's definitely doable if the parts are available and you have the right instructions for the model to get inside.

But I always coded as simple as I could - no OS calls, no APIs if I could get away with it - things that break when you move to a new version of Access r a new OS. So that would be my only caveat. If they're going to run 32 and 64 bit mixed systems then they'll need two dbs. And if they'[re going to mix versions of access on different clients, they'll run into reference problems when a DB compiled on a later version tries to run on an earlier version. It seems to work the other way - earlier to later relinks the right library version; later to earlier does not.

I remember I wrote something like 5-6 years ago. I was able to modify it. It looks in a given folder (and traverses sub folders) and writes the path and filename into a table (tblMDBs). I then loop through those mdbs/accdbs and get all non sys tables and write those to tblTables and to junction tables.

The approach was along this set up. Create a text file of all database names in all directories from C drive using Dir command C:\Users\Jack>dir /b /s c:\*.mdb > c:\users\jack\documents\oldmdbs.txt Then read that text file into a *table* in your working database. Set up to open a second database, and record all non-system table names. Loop through each database name in the *table *and record the database name and the table name. This gives a list of all tables in each database. It's been years since I did this and I haven't been able to find the database where it was done. Not much to go on, but I know I have used the set up ~8-9 years ago. Hope this is helpful. Good luck, jack .
