Plain text warning/ VS2005
Whenever I add a CRecordset derived class, I get an error telling me the password for the DB is sent in "plain text" and is not secure etc. I comment that line out, but how much of a security risk is this? What can I do with my Access database to avoid this? VC 6.0 never gave this error... tia b

If you are on any kind of network that anyone can look at, you are wide open for attack. Example, a University network; potentially, ever student can be running a packet sniffer and see your password. Anything that passes acros the Internet outside your local intranet is also vulnerable. What amazes me is that any component would ever send a password in plaintext rather than encrypted. Makes me wonder about Microsoft's claims about caring about security. Note that later versions of VS beyond 6 issue warnings for issues that VS6 did not, or in some cases could not. These are all genuine issues to be concerned with. Unless you are working on a physically secured network in which every machine can be trusted (including trusted against being corrupted by trojans, worms, viruses, etc.) or using encrypted wireless, to a physically secured trusted network, you are inviting anyone who can access your network to attack your database. Or, as I sometimes like to say, "This is a security hole big enough to drive a freight train through. Sideways." joe On Wed, 26 Jul 2006 08:31:17 -0400, "saywhat" <no@fuk.no> wrote: >Whenever I add a CRecordset derived class, I get an error telling me the >password for the DB is sent in "plain text" and is not secure etc. I >comment that line out, but how much of a security risk is this?

Sorting by Text field of numbers
I am using Access 2003. I have created a database to help me files by "Lot#'s". Our lot numbers for one of our products is all over the place so I created the Lot # field as a text field. Ex: 02-01-01, 10000272925, 10-06-02-04-06 and 1503011 A1-02. Why does access put - 1000272925 before 10-06-02-03-05? Does this look right to anyone? My thinking is that "10" comes before "1000272925". What affect does the "-" have in sorting the numbers. Would I be better off to put a space instead of the "-"? Can anyone help me ...

Estimating contrast between text and background RGB colors

I'm developping a program with MS VC 6.0 and the user of this program can pick the colors he/she wants for the text, and its background.

Warning 919 OPOS driver error
I recently got a new back office (not POS) PC and during the setup of it, acquired a new error message when I launch RMS Manager. It says "Warning 919 : The printer OPOS driver was not found.

I was wondering if I accidentally installed Store Operations on this PC and that is the reason. Help is appreciated. Thanks in advance. Please Cc: me your replies please. ______________________________________________________ Larry Leveen OlyBikes B...
formatting text as active hyperlinks

This will force Excel to create a result that is a number. Then copy this new results column on top of the old one...
