The Power of Sub Classes in VBA with Kent Gorrell

[GPGeorge]

Please join us for our Monthly Chapter Presentation January 4th, 2024, at 6:30PM Pacific (UTC -8)

Kent will draw on his decades of experience providing solutions for his clients to share his insights into the Power of Sub Classes.

Here’s an outline of what you can expect, in an Overview, a longer version and a detailed version. (Something for every level of interest.)

Overview of the Presentation: Introduction to Form and Control Sub Classes

Examples of how to create a consistent User Experience with very little code.

These examples should get you thinking about what else you could do in your applications.

More detailed agenda and a link to the Zoom meeting are available at

It's even money at least one of you will. Adrian Bell often does.

That should be 2:30AM UK time!

I was thinking of dropping in on this, but at 2AM, that will not be happening.

I'm just glad these make it to YouTube. Thursday nights are for bowling and since all the members of my team are family, they simply wont let me off the hook so that I can, as they say "Play with databases"

Looks like the Access Europe topic for Wed 3 Jan has some similarities:
Access Europe Meeting - Wed 3 Jan | Access World Forums (access-programmers.co.uk)

Hopefully at least one of these will be on a day & at a time suitable for all

Tonight. 6:30PM Pacific (UTC-8). I think there will be some overlap, as Colin says, but I'm of the opinion two or three different presentations might well make the concept more accessible for people.

 

[isladogs]

I agree completely. Ken't preview video was a great idea and I found it very interesting.
I'd love to be there for the live session but I'm not at my best at 2:30 AM....
I'll be watching it on YouTube when its available

For those who missed yesterday's AEU session, unfortunately after about half an hour, our presenter A.P.R. Pillai lost his internet connection due to external circumstances beyond his control & apparently is still offline

We may re-record the second half of the session so that a video of the entire session can be posted online

 

[GPGeorge]

Yes, I think we ought to encourage preview videos, but I'm not sure every presenter is comfortable enough to do so. It isn't for the faint-hearted, as you well know.

Perhaps if you can get a one on one session with A.P.R Pillai, the lesser bandwidth pressure will make for a smoother experience. Looking forward to it one way or the other.

 

[GPGeorge]

The YouTube video is here.

 

[isladogs]

The YouTube video is here.

I look forward to watching it.
I'll be re-recording the second half of the AEU session tomorrow & will also deal with the many audio glitches at my end.
The new recording will include questions from both the chat & the excellent discussion session after the presenter lost connection

 

[GPGeorge]

I just got feedback at UA that the translated subtitles are actually showing up and, more importantly, are reasonably accurate and useful.
I added, French, Italian, German and Spanish for this one.

If anyone wants other languages, let us know. The quality may vary across languages, but it's at least worth trying if anyone wants to use them as an aid.

Looking forward to the session with A.P.R. Pillai.

Are you using ChatGPT for the translation, Google Translate, or something else?

 

[GPGeorge]

Are you using ChatGPT for the translation, Google Translate, or something else?

YouTube, which I assume uses their Google Translate. It's built in to the process of publishing videos, as an option.

ChatGPT would be far too much work, on top of hours of editing. You'd be surprised how many times some people say, "...um..." in the course of an hour.

You'd be surprised how many times some people say, "...um..." in the course of an hour.

As the creator of nearly 300 YouTube videos for my Nifty Access YouTube channel, I am definitely not surprised!

However I must confess that I was not aware that YouTube generated alternative languages automatically....
