RE: Database homework :P
Duplicate values do not prevent a query from returning sorted results, so that seems quite irrelevant. If you are sorting by names, you probably should be sorting by last name then first name, yes. Of course, even then you could have duplicates. ...

RE: Utorrent- port forwarding problem
q25, The DSL modem you have can be configured to function as a router -- and probably is. WDZ is correct in noting that you have "stacked" two routers; that is not a good idea, precisely because it breaks UPnP port forwarding and makes manual for...

RE: police scaners
While this may not be exactly the answer you are looking for, I find it completely absurd and unenforceable to make it illegal to listen to any unencrypted radio communication. Security is something to be accomplished by intelligent design, not legi...

Hey Jhrono, I didn't pick a case, I just pointed the original poster to a reputable hardware oriented website. Ars recommendations are in part based on what's readily available in the North American market; I personally have never heard of "Nox...

RE: Getting a New computer!
If you are having a computer custom built or building it yourself, you may want to go with something like [url=http://arstechnica.com/guides/buyer/system-gu ide-200612.ars/2]this[/url]. Without a monitor (which you may not need too badly) it would be...

RE: Access Denied on some/many shared files when viewing them from another computer
I suspect that you are having trouble with the way Windows handles NTFS permissions when you move files. Permissions on an object (folder or file) are inherited from the parent folder when the file is created. However, when an existing file is move...

RE: Which cellphone to buy?
Hi, It so happens I've been looking for a new phone too and spent some time doing that tonight. Your priorities seem to be the same as mine, so I think there is a good chance you will like one of the three phones I am considering. I should note th...

RE: [Request] Alert when Friends Cam is Pluged in
Really? Can you explain why anyone would do that (except, perhaps, laptop users)? I certainly don't unplug any other peripherals when I am not actively using them, nor do I unplug my webcam.

RE: More banning!
MAC addresses are not dynamic, but can be soft-configured (changed) on virtually all modern network cards. The option to do so is burried pretty deep in advanced properties, but it is there. While configuring a MAC address this way doesn't permane...

RE: Setting up speed for another computer in network?
Limiting bandwidth isn't going to work -- at least not for her, if the culprit is voice conversations. If there isn't enough bandwidth, her conversations will no longer work and I imagine she will complain. What software does she use for that? Ty...

RE: Russia criticizing Estonia for removing monuments honoring Soviet union
Hi rix, There are two separate issues here. First is whether it is any of Russia's business what Estonians do with monuments on their territory -- it obviously isn't. I don't see why Russian parliament sees it as their place to pass resolutions...

RE: Treat the forum like a real community
It really needs to be better understood that reputation on this forum is not an important criteria of life quality. In my time with this community (well over a year), I have noticed that certain members seem to habitually neg-rep newcomers, over rela...

RE: Drive letters (System and Boot)
First, let me state that you shouldn't do it. It's a very bad idea that will almost certainly mess up your Windows installation. There is nothing magic about C:, it's simply traditionally been the letter MS operating systems use for the first pa...

RE: I installed ubuntu
If it says that, you are not root. There are two ways to become root -- sudo, which FineWolf suggested, will ask for your user account password and run whatever you ask it to (including an interactive shell, bash) as root. This is the preferred way...

RE: What kind of ram
"400" denotes the doubled frequency of operation. In other words, it is DDR memory that runs at 200MHz (making for effective 400MHz after you factor in the double pumping), also known as PC-3200. The "3200" in PC-3200 denotes theorethical band...

Ok. So, how do we know what genre it is? Is there a column for it? Are all the lists on the same worksheet, or different worksheets?

RE: a interesting question about excel
There is more than one way to do anything and it also depends on how your spreadsheet is organized, which you don't explain very well. What would make sense to me (perhaps because I deal with databases a lot) would be one list, with a column for gen...
