Help - syncronizing forms in Access 2000

regular access db - usually use sub-forms or tabs - this time I want seperate forms - have linked fields - but can't final code line in "open form" button command. Any suggestions welcome. Denny :(but can't final code line in "open form" button command

Can you explain this a little better. You might want to bullet point exactly what you want. If you want to just populate two forms on the open, you need to just scroll down on properties of main form until you get to the open propety. You'll want to set the properties of the parent form first, then the second. I have no idea if this is what you are trying to do.

Help - Recovering a deleted job

Any ideas how I can recover a job that has been deleted (?) from SQL
7.0 ? We had one which was used on a regular basis which has now
ceased to exists. I've spoken to the people responsible for the server
and was met by blank faces (as usual). They have no idea when it was
deleted, by whom or when. To make matters worse, they don't think they
can get it off the backup set without a major bit of work to the
server. Suprisingly, none of the users noticed that things had stopped
working.

Unfortunately, I needed to do some work on this in preparation for my
monthly meeting with my boss on Monday. Whilst I'm not to blame, I'd
like to understand a little more about any options available to us for
recovery as he will undoubtedly ask when he finds out.

I have an old back up on another server, so it's not the end of the
world re-creating it, but I was under the impression it was backed up
properly. Is this normal or have they missed something ?

Are there any ways I can recover this ? What can I get done to the
backup to make sure this is backed up properly ?

Thanks in advance.

If you ahve a maintenance plan that covers the system databases then you
should have a copy of the msdb database somewhere - this is the one that you
want.

Using Enterprise manager, restore this backup onto the same server, but
under a database name of "OLDmsdb"

From here, you shoul dbe able to explore sysjobs and sysjobsteps.

It is POSSIBLE to move these entries into the relevant system tables on the
live msdb, but my recommendation would be to extract the data you need from
the old sysjobsteps table, then re-create the new job manually.
