oldbloke at 04:27pm on 07/02/2005We have this database, and a wizzy front end for it.
I've complained endlessly that I can't access it from my machine, and they come and look and try things and it never works and I usually end up using somebody else's machine or making somebody else do my stuff.
New release of the front end... So I decide to really TRY to make it go.
2 days later, what am I doing?
Plugging the old office laptop into my spare network socket, coz the fecking thing refuses to work with owt but XP as the workstation OS.
Feh.
