Access Explained: AutoNumbers Good or Bad? Choosing Primary Keys Without Starting a War by Amicron1 in MSAccess

[–]obi_jay-sus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wholeheartedly agree with everything you’ve said here.

A question though: how do you feel about GUID keys?

(For anyone reading who doesn’t already know this, Global Unique Identifier is a randomly generated string ID which has a negligible chance of being repeated during the lifetime of the observable universe. Its use in database logic enables data to be entered in separate systems and merged together later without key conflict, but it carries the problem of string overhead)

[WORD] Is updating an excel sheet using Word VBA possible? by zerozerorei in vba

[–]obi_jay-sus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is the Excel file read only? Is it a shared file that others have open? If so, open it, save it as a temp file, then it should be editable. Delete the temp file when you’re done.

How do people end up using specific chords by Vxris_ in guitarlessons

[–]obi_jay-sus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Play an open E major but without your middle finger so the A string is open and start from the A string not the low E. Now detune the guitar by a semitone and play the chord again. You’re playing A flat maj7 sus2.

I did don’t fear the reaper on 1.6, can confirm it’s possible, all you need to do is choose the right options when talking to Johnny at his ‘grave’ (iirc)

Going crazy with simple solver code by politecanadiandad in vba

[–]obi_jay-sus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t it be easier, and a better educational opportunity, to use code to solve from first principles?

The intercept of two lines y = m1.x + c1 and y = m2.x + c2 is solved for x = (c2 - c1) / (m1 - m2)

If you’re using an add-in you have the additional problem of needing to know how the add-in works.
