What do I hope to see/learn at Consona Connect 2008?

Over the years, I’ve been to many of these Users Conferences. Many of the sessions in past conferences have been the same content you could get over the net with the Made2Manage University. I’m not suggesting that the presentations weren’t done well or that the information presented wasn’t valid, it’s just that I’d [...]

What happens in Vegas… The Final Battle.. or Something. (Part 3)

*** Note: This is a 3 part post and they are shown in the order I published them. Please read parts one and two below before reading part 3. ***

Try to imagine it. You’re stuck in the middle of the night on top of a mountain surrounded by short pines without food, [...]

What happens in Vegas… Part 2

“It is an ironic habit of human beings to run faster when we have lost our way.” -Rollo May

Spoken in an old time radio announcer’s voice:

When last we left our “hero”, he had left his car to take a picture of the desert in the mountains near Lee Canyon. Of course he [...]

What happens in Vegas.... Part 1

This article isn’t about the User Conference which was held in Vegas a few years ago. This is about me and my life and death struggle against my own stupidity.

Some have found this story hard to believe, but I swear it is true. This was my first trip to Vegas, so I [...]

Code is never finished, only abandoned.

I enjoy reading a little bit right before bed, and I’m a big fan of Uncle John’s Bathroom Readers. Where else can you read short articles about Star Wars trivia, how the invention of currency came about, and the famous hoaxes of the last century all in one sitting?

Anyway, I found [...]

ECM Auditing. Its Limitations and a Solution.

What is ECM (Engineering Change Management)?

The basics as to what it is and how to use it can be found on M2M Expert.

Here is an excerpt from the site. I’ve emphasized the text relating to today’s post.

This feature of Made2Manage manages the process of engineering changes in parts and associated documents [...]

“Don’t Panic!” A FastForms/VBA project goes awry….

The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, which was a radio show back in the 70′s, is near and dear to the hearts of many geeks. It branched out into many forms, including books and video games, over the years. What I remember most fondly is the Commodore 64 [...]

VBA and Yellow Mnemonic Inconsistencies

When a screen has been customized with VBA, the mnemonic background is yellow. The reason for this is for the admin, or Made2Manage techs, to quickly determine whether a screen has been customized or not. FastForms customizations are designated by an italicized mnemonic.

Over the years, I’ve noticed a few [...]

Blah Blah. Click ignore to get back to work.

As I mentioned in a previous post, this is a typical red box error you will get from Made2Manage.

Compared to some of the red box errors, this one is actually descriptive.

Some other examples are:

107 Operator/operand type mismatch.
5 Record is out of range.
13. Alias ‘SLCDPM’ is not found.
1429 OLE IDispatch exception [...]

Has anyone ever answered yes?

All joking aside, do any of you intentionally answer yes to make M2M Expert your homepage while installing M2M?

Do you answer yes to make M2M Expert your homepage?

Always
Occasionally
Are you kidding? Never
