Unhandled exceptions during report outputs to snapshot files
thanks, Tom, I'll have my son (the hardware expert in the family )
check into it I was going to set up a virtual computer, but it was recommended to get 2 drives, so I saw no need...I can access all the files from either drive anyway I just recently switched to XP myself -- was using ME till a storm rearranged my hard drive Warm Regards, Crystal * (: have an awesome day * MVP Access Remote programming and Training strive4peace2006 at yahoo.com * Tom Wickerath wrote: Hi Crystal, Step 5 should not be necessary. You can configure what is commonly known as a "dual boot" or "multiple boot" configuration. In Windows 2000, see the help topic titled "Installing more than one operating system on your computer". I'm not sure if it is listed under the same topic in WindowsXP, since I'm not using WindowsXP on my main PC (I do have it on my laptop PC, but that's currently in the Baltimore area with Cindy).

Change it back again to do your work. My son loaded Vista yesterday on another drive in his computer (and we do the BIOS drive switching thing for that too) ... from what he has said, I think I will stick with XP for awhile -- among other things, it seems to be menu-cumbersome. On a positive note, it was very easy to connect to the Internet... Warm Regards, Crystal * (: have an awesome day * MVP Access Remote programming and Training strive4peace2006 at yahoo.com |
