Before I reveal the four principles, let me encourage you once again to look at the books. They are packed with before and after examples, accompanied by clear explanations of why the after is better. You will also find thoughtful quizzes to help you see if you have gotten the concepts. And they are just plain fun. I don’t think I could do a better

I would like to recommend two books that could make an IMMENSE difference in how you design, especially if you haven’t thought much about it before. They are both by Robin Williams (no, not the one you think). The first book is called “The Non-Designer’s Design Book” and the author makes the claim that if you recognize and apply four simple design principles

I have some puzzling results from Speedtest.com and I am looking for suggestions about how to resolve a discrepency. I have my DSL router plugged into a switch to distribute my signal to two different computers. The computer running W2K Professional consistently gets a download speed of about 1500 kbs and upload of about 290 kps. The computer running

I am setting up each users e-mail to point to their POP3 account they have at home, so they have to manage

Thanks for your suggestion. I did take a look and decided it would be quicker and easier to just write the application I needed. I would still consider other options in the future if my needs became more complex or I wanted an on-line solution. Just a note, though. I tried to look at some demos and and had trouble figuring out how to make the demo go

I had the same problem. After reading this post I did some shopping around and found BootIT Next Generation from Terabyte Unlimited. I was able to resize the boot partition with no problem on a Dell PowerEdge 2600. The caveat is that you must have basic drives, not dynamic disks. I am running Windows 2003 Server with hardware RAID 5. This is one of

I am using Terminal Services under Windows Server 2003. I have written some custom Access applications that need to send report results via e-mail. The way I am doing it now is to get the POP3 information from individual users and set up an Outlook account with the e-mail being left on the mail server once it is down-loaded so that the user can still

I have users that are entering information into an Excel workbook and it is getting ugly. Basically, our organization wants to take calls from people in the community, and based on those calls, provide education or one of several services. Once an initial contact is logged, we want to track any further contacts and enter what was done. This is primarily
