brunt away at me. Can't be any worse than what I took from my mom and 2 sisters for 10 years :^0

Does DataEase talk through its own driver? Or can you setup an ODBC connection for it to refer to?

Just curious.

Lemme know if I can do anything to help

It's cool...I'm not usually a big hugger, but I got a soft spot for certain people (Shell, GG, etc etc), and huggin them is good for the soul.

Think old school dude.

This thing uses a .bat file to set the file paths..
Its flat files :O
Ughh..i can figure it out enough to do minor ammendments and code changes and new queries (think about as far away from t-sql as possible)..normally I don't have to much with it. But its got an email client that is selecting the wrong records, and can't run it from the server like i normaly would..need to do a local install on my machine to test it.
It installs..it starts, but after log in credentials, flashes a disk error..then says can't find the config file for it.
Config file is there..i can see it with my own friggin eyes..i'm mapped correctly..i'm in the appropriate AD groups for the permissions and mappings...
i installed it on the pc of the person next to me..in 10 mins, up and running....so its gotta be something local to my machine right..
Thing is I've so much software ect on mine that no one else has, i'm scared to mess with it too much in case i mess up anything else..
I'm at the stage of tearing my hair out.
Only thing i can do is set myself yest another laptop and try it on that...just can't deal with yet another machine on my desk :(

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I believe you can setup an ODBC to a textfile reader. Been so long, I can't remember for sure.

You checked the DOS path setting on each machine, right?

Hope I'm not going over what you did already. Gosh. I'm gonna go check my email in case you sent me something there. I got 45 more mins here and I don't feel like reading anymore about web programming.

by shellbot

can't use odbc..
very very specific set ups for this one.

it works on every machine except mine..i suspect its some registry settings..but don't wanna mess with em.
will go the easy route in the morning and install on a clean machine..
not worth any more heartache :(

by shellbot

I'm wrecked..try and catch some zzzz's..maybe i'll feel better tomorrow.

Night all

(((((((((hugs))))))))))

by jck

Thanks for the extra hugs..

For our British friends, probably a bit old for many now, but I had it sent to me again today so I had to post it.

Tony Blair the Farmer, Gordon the Rooster

"GORDON THE ROOSTER

Tony the farmer was in the fertilised egg business. He had several hundred young laying Hens (Pullets) and eight or ten Roosters (Cockerels), whose job was to fertilise the eggs.

Tony kept records and any Rooster that did not perform, had its neck wrung and went into the Soup Pot. The failed Rooster would be quickly replaced. All of this took an awful lot of his time so he bought a set of tiny bells and attached them to his Roosters. Each bell had a different tone, so Tony could tell from a distance, which Rooster was performing. Now he could sit on the Farm House Porch and fill out an efficiency report simply by listening to the bells.

Farmer Tony?s favourite Rooster was old Gordon, and a very fine specimen he was too. However, on this particular morning Tony noticed old Gordon?s bell had not rung at all!

Tony went to investigate. All the other Roosters were chasing Pullets, bells-a-ringing. The Pullets, upon hearing the Roosters coming, would run for cover.

However, to farmer Tony?s amazement, Gordon had his bell in his beak, so it could not ring. He would sneak up on a Pullet, service her very quickly and strut on to the next one, and so on.

Tony was so proud of Gordon, he entered him in to the West Berkshire County Fair and Gordon became an overnight sensation among the Judges. The result was that the Judges not only awarded Gordon the world famous No Bell Peace Prize, but, they also awarded him the Pullet Surprise as well.

Clearly, Gordon was a Politician in the making. Who else but a Politician could figure out how to win two of the most highly coveted awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the populace and screwing them when they weren?t paying due attention.

Do you know any Politician called Gordon?"

I'm passing those safe driving hugs on to other drivers, though. I don't need them as much as they do. :0

450,000 miles–knock wood–since the last wreck (the dummy ran a red light to hit me), almost 550k since an at-fault wreck (never light a cigarette in moving traffic!). That's 15 years without a wreck, 19 without an at fault wreck. Poundin' hard on that plank!

edit: Forgot to return the (((hug)))!

by rob mekel

(((((((((((((((((( hugs ))))))))))))))))))))

by michael jay

You laughed at my unfortune.

You folks it was like this, I was sitting in the car with GG on my left and Shellbot on my right when all of the sudden GG re.. no guess I should not talk about this, you just had to be there.

Asied from what happened I was in heaven to be between the two of them.

((((inheavenhugs))))

by michael jay

after that that I realized that I really was special and it took meeting many special people to prove that to me.

As I commented to one manager today "I am just a simple tech" he replied "no Mike you are a complex tech."

So now not only am I special I have a complex, I think. Still somewhat confused but that goes with the game.

((((((Quiet Special and Complex Hugs))))))

by michael jay

The Love it represents, is for all in the very Heart of the reason for this thread.

So yes, Shell, it is for you.

...on your intent at the time... ;\ :p

Oh, and (((((Heading for svelte hugs))))). Getting there myself. Dropped 15 pounds since June, but not into smaller sizes yet. Mostly because I was at the borderline of larger sizes when this started! :D

by shellbot

how much I've lost since the gathering..
I've gone down over 2 sizes..I'm about a 16 american now..would have been a 20 or so in KY
< happy dance >
Not bad for just over 2 months :)

by shellbot

thats stuff's expensive :)

now with the shopping today..may have to ration it out a square at a time ]:)

tee hee

by santeewelding

I had the only roll in that part of the world where even today it is unknown. Can't be bought.

You better believe I did it one square at a time. And, since it was two-ply, I peeled them apart.

by shellbot

by michael jay

I know I am always there, can cause issues for which you will need tissues but like the Little Red Haired Girl says "It's All Good.."

Smile for the Camera.

(((((((HUGS)))))))

Got it.. hee hee..

The inevitable has happened. Hair loss began on Thursday. By this morning, the patches were very visible and prompted a visit to the hairdresser.

His is shorter than mine by a little. Right now, I look like Demi Moore in GI Jane. It's remotely possible that JDs hair is longer.

For those that like evidence, check out the CB site.

Next cycle starts Tuesday morning.

by michael jay

The conditions could be better for sure but you know we and I are here for you, ask and ye shall receive.

by nicknielsen

I can still remember how the music used to make me (((HUG))
and I knew if I had my chance I could make the people (((HUG))) and may be they'd be happy for a while
but February made me shiver with every (((HUG))) that I'd deliver

Guess this one does not work past this point.

by santeewelding

The ultimate meaning of "yes" in apposition to "no".

The positive needs no undoing in the way double negative does.

by michael jay

(((((HUGS OF THE LARGE TYPE))))) to all.

Sorry I got distracted by some pictures from the beach that I have been sorting.

by santeewelding

Paying attention to things like swimsuits?

All about yes.

Got gigged before about, "suites".
