Maybe the signigicant women in your life are just holding you back....

The first compiler I learned to use was from Digital Research and was called CB-80. It was a BASIC compiler. I still remember my favourite error message: "An error has been detected for which there is no error message." Stuff like that makes MS-Help look eloquent. See? It's all a question of context. I remember some C/PM programs that actually expected their users to be able to enter Hex numbers! One night long ago, I had a dream in which I FINALLY figured out how to translate decimal into hex and vice-versa, in my head. My then-wife told me about it next morning. Apparently, I awoke suddenly, sat bolt upright and said, "Yes! 16 times 4 is 64! Now I get it!" and promptly fell back asleep. She left me shortly thereafter. A. P.S. This has happened more than once. I have a dream that solves some programming problem, and soon afterwards my significant woman departs :) -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of DWUTKA at marlow.com Sent: Thursday, August 12, 2004 10:14 AM To: accessd at databaseadvisors.com Subject: RE: [AccessD] AXP and Error 3310 Of course it doesn't....that would make life too easy! LOL. I love getting error messages that are so vague they let to spin your wheels for a few days before you accidentally trip over the solution! Gotta love it!
