Ah Hah! So this stupid date changing scheme is all part of the great master plan to make us all upgrade to Developer's edition? <g> Lambert -----Original Message----- From: Charlotte Foust [mailto:cfoust at infostatsystems.com] Sent: Friday, December 12, 2003 12:04 PM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: RE: [AccessD] Access 2002 - module modified dates all changing atonce. Still another alternative is to use a version control product like Visual Source Safe, which allows you to track the changes at the level of the individual objects, except for tables and references.

Euh, Just replace the whole file as I do... But I conclude that your are not using the Front/Back End technique? You should put all your tables in one MDB (the backend) and all your other stuff (queries, forms, macro's, code, reports) in a seperate MDB (or MDE) (The Frontend) If you make changes to the front end you just give everyone the new file... At the level of the tables, those change less often, you have at least tree solutions. 1) Write them down. 2) On the database advisors website there's a tool that for automatic backend updater. 3) Use a tool like Access Detective from FMS to compare two MDB and change the changes manualy (is what I do).

This is a major pain in the neck as now I have to keep a manual record of what modules I just changed in my development copy so I know what to export to the production copy. Is it just me???? ;-( Lambert _______________________________________________ AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com _______________________________________________ AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com _______________________________________________ AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
