(the Macs have DAVE 6.2 installed to help with this)

Why are they using Dave? Macs running OSX can recognize and print directly to Windows printers on a network.

Maybe the mystery comes from the Dave connection?

I'll check my Tiger Mac when I get home.

ND, you are cool people! thanks. I can't figure out this software, but I'll try again this weekend when I have more patience.

I think you can edit the /etc/cups/printers.conf file, although I've never had to edit that file directly on a Mac. At the very least, you can look at that file and see what server the printers are pointed at.

I'll give it a look tomorrow. Thanks.

Not a clue. This job is my first time using a Mac since highschool, much less supporting them.

Honestly, the local Mac "expert" is probably closer to "competent", but he knows more than anyone else on the IT staff. And since we've only got about 50 Macs out of 1500 computers, my focus has been more on getting up to speed on how the company does things on the PC side with only the occaisional side trip into Mac territory. This issue just ended up being a major speedbump for me in the printer migration project.

I will ask about the Dave thing, though, when I get a chance.

Oh, heart. A new kind of keyboard: [link]

I think the command smbstatus will show you printer connections to Windows machines as well. I don't have a Mac, but Windows connectivity and printing should all be the same as my Kubuntu machine.

My webhost is driving me batty. After migrating my control panel unexpectedly to Plesk, they are now incapable of giving me more than one ftp user with access to my web controls. I need to have the control panel login for myself with full control and a web developer login with limited control. Surely this is not that unusual a situation? And anyway, it used to work just fine.

Someone help me see what's right in front of my face. I'm running this query:

SELECT colA, colB, * FROM TableA WHERE colAcolB;

and it returns me nothing. However, the following queries do not return the same number of results:

SELECT colA, colB, * FROM TableA;

and

SELECT colA, colB, * FROM TableA WHERE colA=colB;

I'm running Access 2003 on an Access 2000 database. All columns are text.

The first one of the two returns 4K+ more records than the second.

What am I missing? The underlying table is a linked table I can't play with structurally.

I don't understand the question.

Why wouldn't SELECT colA, colB, * FROM TableA return more rows than SELECT colA, colB, * FROM TableA WHERE colA=colB? What is the issue?

Just guessing/hoping that Access query structure isn't totally kinked - wouldn't:

SELECT colA, colB, * FROM TableA;

Return everything from each column

and

SELECT colA, colB, * FROM TableA WHERE colA=colB;

Return matches?

What are you trying to query?
