Re: [semi OT] mySQL question

I would recommend a table for People, a table for Companies, and a table for Employment that acts as a linking table between the first two. Something like (at its simplest): people id INT(11) first_name VARCHAR(255) last_name VARCHAR(255) companies

Thank you all. I will stick with the Mac client. The reason I like the forums better is what I see as a far more helpful UI. We all know how it works. Enough said of this. Craig > On May 11, 2023, at 2:02 PM, Richmond Mathewson via use-livecode > wrote: > > I use Betterbird, an improved

I use Thunderbird. Like Matthias, I set up a rule to move list mail into a subfolder where I can sort by date, author,, subject, or any other attribute. It supportsl threading. There are several layouts you can use depending on how you like to organize and view mail. You can color-code emails

Old license etc.

I have been away from coding for years. I have a LiveCode Hosting Lifetime License that, I think, I bought during one of LC’s campaigns for HTML5 to be built. Whatever happened with HTML5 and LC? How can I find the “terms” that were listed for my Lifetime Hosting License? I believe that the

I am using also the "normal" Mac Client w/o any problem with the use list. I am accessing my email account using Imap protocoll and i created an email alias for the uselist and a subfolder to which the emails automatically are copied. So no mess in my main inbox and also a nice and proper
