You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

iPhone iPhoto iLife... I chuckled this morning when I noticed that our dog eats iChunks.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Crap. I didn't bother to back up iPhoto because I assumed it came with Leopard.

I need a thingie to convert the old MacBook HD into a USB or Firewire drive so I can get at stuff on that drive.

Something other than putting it in Target Mode?

Oh, it's not in the MacBook anymore, as I installed a new drive the same time I installed Leopard.

Sean try it without the spaces.

Actually, I entered it without spaces.

Oh! I shall now try entering it with dashes included. I wonder if that will do it.

I figured I was missing something. And I have exhausted my knowledge on the subject. Good luck!

AHA! That did it.

Programs should not be counterintuitive at me when I'm sleepy. If I needed to enter the serial number with dashes included, it should have said so.

Hey. New board.

Access question, probably simple:

I'm trying to set up a database for our dean of students so that she can easily keep track or student referrals. I've made a table and a justified form for entering the data, and it works great. She is entering data as we speak.

For reports, though, I'm still confused. What I'd like is for her to be able to click something that pulls up a "Which student?" form. She chooses a student, clicks a button, and a nice, printable report with all of that student's referrals ONLY appear. Is that possible?

Yes.

If I understand correctly, ideally you'd want a table of students and another table of referrals cross-referenced to the table of students. You just have a single table? You can still do it that way.

What uniquely identifies each student? The name? What is that field named?

(If I have time I'll poke back here periodically to help you along.)
