Well, when they pay you to say "Turn it off and turn it on again and see if
that fixes it..." and it DOES 90% of the time... :)
But that 10% is really nasty.
I did a bit of work recently to change the tax handling on an
old Access database system. The new tax setup -- actually a
reversion to a previous but you probably do not want the British
Columbia political history -- went into effect on April 1.
It was much easier for me to make the changes in advance, have
it all tested, and then show up again on the right day to put the
changes into effect. My client was quite happy to pay me for the
last bit. Had it not worked out for whatever reason, it would have
been troublesome for them.
And yes, I did find a glitch in the setup that apparently
prevented the change from working. Actually, it was that the program
icon on one system was for an old version of the database, not the
shortcut that it should have been.
Sincerely,
Gene Wirchenko
