If you want to find the bugs I introduced *before* they hit the master

Quick feedback and maybe help for anyone else.
After installing ( I know I didn't have to, but when it wouldn't work as
expected I tried ) this package and opening the supplied macros.odb file
from the <install dir>/user/database directory I could not get the
'Local Hello' procedure to run - Tried setting trusted path, setting
security level to LOW - nothing, click on the toolbar button and nothing
happens, try to run it from the Macro menus and get a security notification.
However - I then created a new Base file, added a basic library to this
file and copied in the macro from your supplied database - it works just
fine from this new file, with security set to high and a trusted path
set. This includes showing the different results for sub components (
table, query, form designers - haven't tried reports yet ) as
expected...nice.
Anyway - I'll have to stop for now as Sydney the 'wonder lab' is in the
room with me and after reading your warnings and given she is a dog in
prime pup bearing age...well...*smile*.
Till later
Drew
