I've been getting a bit of mail recently about compatibility with Office 2010.

The deal with Office 2010 is that it appears to break the Common Controls library.
The fix is to run cmd as Administrator, and execute the following command:
REGSVR32 MSCOMCTL.OCX

It is important that you run it as Administrator.
That gets it running under Office 2010 for me.

Cheers

I like =SQL.Request( ). I used it tonnes a while back when I needed a lot of little bits of data like a summary sheet.

You can use it for building a report with all the yucky formatting that users tend to like and the SQL is there in the formula for all to see.

I knock together a quick little xlPasteSpecial and I have an instant batch of reports for the morons to read.

(needless to say you have to run the ODBC addin)

P.S. I always try to write my own SQL by hand. That way you remeber which tables to join and can speed up the efficiency.

Thanks Harald

I believe that Oracle is like other databases & softwares/tools, some people love it while other hate it and the largest group is between these two points

Kind regards,
Dennis

Oracle is case sensitive, picky and sluggish, a real annoyance.

Just for the balance
Best wishes Harald

I use (and love) PL/SQL Developer
It's geared toward Oracle Developers and (IMO) is well-priced - with excellent support.

I've used Toad - it didn't fly my kite but I know Oracle Consultants who always use it.

My workmate (DBA) uses SQL Navigator and he loves it.

Oracle really is a damn fine database.
