    Annoyance With Ads

    Popping in and out to answer a few quick questions when time permits for me is almost impossible with the amount of time each page takes to load all the advertisements. I am using IE 8 (and no I cannot change that). Users like myself (5,000+ postings) who enjoy helping the forum members by...

    How can I safely erase a hard drive?

    Thanks Vassago, I will check that one out! One question. After I use the Eraser program to wipe the drive... Do I have to use a DOS command to format the drive before I can insert and run the "restore" dvd's that I created to reinstall the original OS XP and software that came with my computer?

    How can I safely erase a hard drive?

    "For every tool out there to erase a drive there's another to bring that data back." Sad but probably true. I do have too much personal stuff on that drive to allow an unscrupulous buyer to get their paws on. Thanks!

    You only need to add the one Yes/No field to the table to mark a record Yes/No if it gets a Christmas card. Create a user GUI form to allow adding/editing/deleting the contacts address info. The user just needs to select a check box bound to the Yes/No field to determine if an address gets a...

    Question newbie trying to create address labels from Access table.

    I would suggest that you continue to store and update you contact listing in Access [forget Excel and Word].
