Would you mind me poking you ever so gently and lovingly...?

Not at all.  I sent you one and it just sat in the outbox so I deleted it.  Pretty sure that's what happened anyway. Let me skim back through here and see what version you need and I'll PM it again!

He's actually legally required to after the last incident. There's a reason he moved to Switzerland.

Is that where they send all the pv's?

All of which is a long distance from my attempts today to evaluate Access 2013 as a drop-in replacement for gaffing around with MySQL (and especially the client). It's almost as if Microsoft don't actually want to sell software. All I wanted to do was download a trial version before buying, but could I do that without signing up for a Microsoft account? Could I hell as like.

Instead I will stick with MySQL.

I think that was a good choice.  I'm usually a proponent of most of MS's software but Access hasn't been useful in years, if it ever was. I think I recall having success with it when I was really using ColdFusion a lot years ago.  Recently I've not even been able to figure out how to use it!  I was really beginning to think that I've hit that age where learning new things is hard and not worth the trouble but your post proves otherwise!  Proves it I say!

I used Access for some time years ago. But it soon became passé once I learned some basic SQL. I guess I'll never know whether it's made up the gap

And I also find myself less inclined to fight my way through new stuff. There was a time when I would, but life's too short

I feel the same way but I fight it.  I enjoy learning new things but it's taking longer and longer.  The Dr. that delivered our first child told my wife "Always be learning!".  He didn't realize that I was the one who was going to listen to him!

I have no problem with learning new things, but I do have a problem with fighting through BS.
