I have an Access Database that everyone was able to access last month. I then had an issue where one user was only getting what appears to be design mode, on the same PC she is able to login as another account and the database runs properly. Myself and another tested and we are not able to get it to run either. The user is on an XP machine x32 and I am on Windows 7 x64. there are still some users able to access this with no issue the last I checked. I tried copying the ODBC connections from the working user to me but it still opens the same way. Would appreciate any guidance as to what would cause this. The last time it was accessible was 7/30/2012.

Thanks,

Issue resolved, turns out there were two versions of the database a local and a lan. The LAN version was not the right version.

Ok, being that it is happening on certain profiles on certain machines but not on other profiles on the same machine, have you looked at the individual user settings like macro settings (like I mentioned before)?

    • The long-awaited Nothing Phone (3) is finally coming next month, launch date confirmed

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      The long-awaited Nothing Phone (3) is finally coming next month, launch date confirmed by Aditya Tiwari London-based consumer electronics brand Nothing is due to launch its latest flagship in 2025. The company dropped a new teaser for the Phone (3), revealing when the flagship device will be out on the market. Nothing Phone (3) will be unveiled during a live event on July 1 at 1:00 PM ET / 10:00 AM PT / 6:00 PM BST / 11:30 PM IST. It has already created a live event titled "Come to Play" on its official YouTube channel, for which you can add a reminder by clicking on the "Notify Me" button. Nothing CEO Carl Pei has previously dropped several details about the unreleased smartphone. He took part in a social media AMA earlier this year and said Nothing Phone (3) will arrive in the third quarter of 2025. Pei confirmed that Nothing Phone (3) will make its way to the US this time after a dry spell since 2023. However, he didn't specify whether the device will be sold directly or through the beta channel, which currently includes Phone (3a), Phone (3a) Pro, and CMF Phone 2 Pro. The US has been a rocky terrain for Nothing. Its first smartphone was made available through the beta channel, and the Nothing Phone (2) is the only smartphone from the company that has been widely available in the US. The Glyph interface featured on the back of Nothing smartphones has remained a differentiating factor from the start. However, the smartphone maker recently posted a 9-second video in which the Glyph lights on the back of a Nothing smartphone abruptly turn off. "We killed the Glyph Interface," the company said. It makes sense when you check out the Phone (3) teaser and see dot matrix-style lights being flashed in a pattern. Nothing released another teaser about a week ago, featuring the number 3 lit up as dot matrix LEDs. If you're looking for some trivia, Nothing product manager Raymond Zhu estimated in a Q&A video that the company would need to sell about 250,000 Phone (3) units to turn a profit. Answering another question, he added that their biggest weakness is "no one knows us", and the company is struggling to reach the masses without high marketing budgets. Let's wait to see what Nothing has in store for Phone (3) next month other than the new physical button. Speaking of the future of smartphones, the Nothing CEO believes that our entire software experience will eventually be condensed down to just one app.

      As far as I can remember, no one has done a 4v4 before. 2v2? yes. 3v3? yes.
    • Pop-up asking me to disable my ad blocker

      By snowy owl · Posted

      I just checked with Brave portable, the shield is disabled, as well as uBlock Origin Lite, no change to the Host file, and no pop-up when I connect to the site 😵! I think this might be the best option? I don't have a Paypal account, because I got rid of it, and I was fed up with all the phishing attempts, so I use my credit card. Do you take credit card payments? Because so far it's been safer, no phishing attempts.
