Well I find myself again the dummie of the Internet. I basically came across this error and STFW'd for ages following complex T-SQL Timestamp conversions but to no avail. Not saying that you shouldn't try their solutions but just check you haven't done this silly mistake. I'm only guessing the same error would happen i...
Following up on my article on correcting disappearing headers, a further issue with our web-report is that even an export to Excel (Data Only) from Crystal Reports 9, created extra columns. This issue could not be replicated on the client machine (ie. from my workstation). I would have to upload the report to the serve...
If you've been to the point where you're exporting a report to Excel, and only some of the column headers appear, then try this: I googled this for ages and found different suggestions here and there but none of them produced consistent results. One solution was to untick "Simplify page headers" on the Excel Format Opt...

In the past few months I have been trying to upgrade my 16Gb USB Integral Pen from Play.Com to a 32Gb equivalent. I use my USB pen as the "My Documents" folder on every computer I use. It was fine with my 16Gb one but my 32Gb...
Basically if you've just started using "incognito" mode with the Google Chrome web-browser, this article is just how to switch the quick launch shortcut (next to your start button). All the articles I googled were windows vista so I thought I'd share one for windows 7 here. I'm actually only saving you a click as you c...
Ok is it just me who does everything slowly and badly until someone comes along and says why are you doing it like that? My justification is that the job has to be done no matter what. If you've ever sat there with phpMyAdmin or a MySQL Administration Tool (like Navicat or SQLYog), and still there at night editing each...
Working principle
This site exists as a practical knowledge base built from real-world experience across systems, platforms, and technologies since 1999. Much of the content documents solutions, edge cases, and working patterns that were learned through investigation where documentation was incomplete or absent, and is shared to reduce the same friction for others.
