Ah Dave, you're a saint! Cheers Mate! 

Hi Y'all, its been a while, hope you're all well! 
I have this spamfighter program for the last month which was a pro trial but I can't  uninstall it now. I keep getting the following error message. If anybody has this program and can help I'd much appreciate it. BTW if I try to modify, uninstall, repair or even download it over itself I still get this error message. Cheers! 

Many thanks to Nob who gave me a link on CA and I got it sorted out!
Heres the link for anybody who may experience the same problem in the future!
Cheers Nob!  :)

I will Dave thanks. 

Thanks for the help Dave, I got it sorted.  :)


Now a big problem. I have been working on a large database that I need to submit on Friday at the latest but today when I tried to open it I got the error  "AOIndex is not an index in this table." and cannot open the DB.
I googled that and found an apparent fix but dont know how to write the .VBS script properly. Heres what the suggested script is....

=============================================

Const strDB = "C:\MYDATABASE.MDB"



Dim dbConnection

Set dbConnection = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")

dbConnection.Open "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};Dbq=" &
strDB & ";Uid=Admin;Pwd=;"

dbConnection.Execute "Drop Table MSysAccessObjects"

dbConnection.Close

Set dbConnection = nothing



MsgBox "You should now be able to open the database!"

=======================================================

It said to change the variable for the correct path to the DB. The DB is on a flash drive, drive J: in My Computer.
This is the script I made with the suggestion...

======================================================

Const strDB = "J:\mymusiccollection.MDB"



Dim dbConnection

Set dbConnection = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")

dbConnection.Open "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};Dbq=" &
strDB & ";Uid=Admin;Pwd=;"

dbConnection.Execute "Drop Table MSysAccessObjects"

dbConnection.Close

Set dbConnection = nothing



MsgBox "You should now be able to open the database!"

=============================================================

When I try to open the DB now I still get the original error.
If I click on the .VBS script I get the following, which may be a clue...





Any clues about the script? where should I store it? and I guess the path is wrong.

Any help greatly appreciated because I just do not have the time to start the DB all over again. 

Thanks! 

Thanks a lot for the offer Dave. I'll try the other suggestion first and get back to you.  Cheers. 

Hi Dave, sorry mate I didn't really explain that properly methinks. 
I meant I have an Office 2003 disk but the win98 won't let me download it, ("not compatable for this OS" (or something like that  :)))
and the 97 pro one can only be installed if I already have something from office installed, which I don't, (catch 22)




Its no big deal really but it would be a great help if I could continue work when I have to sarcrifice my baby machine to the wrath of my kids on the net now!    Watch out world, the spawn of the Strum is on it's way! 

Hi folks, long time, hope you're all well. 

I'm not sure if I can do this but hoping somebody may have a few clues.
I have a seperate Compaq win98 pc that is used for a bit of storage but mainly for the kids to play offline games on but when they want to go online and use my main pc,  I would like to work with Access on it the Compaq.
I have Office 2003 but it is too much for the system, and I have an Office 97 Pro edition but its an upgrade to Office 97 and can only be installed if another Office program is already on the system.
So basically is there anyway to get Access onto the Compaq?
Thanks for any input!  :)

Again Dave Thanks...I'll check out that link.
Unfortunately I don't have a credit card to do anything online because banks don't like me after running up major bills with them (a lot to do with dial-up) so I can't get mailwasher full version and the free one only scans 1 account...
Gawd its so much work to keep spammers at bay... I'd be a rich man if I had a cent for every spammer I could strangle!!! 

Thanks Dave. I'll check out the link fisrst and let you know. I don't know what the hell I signed up for but I'm getting about 200 spams a day now and thats only recently, and doing my head in having to filter through them all...I have a suspicion that the "subject" line is better that the "from" to set the rules to because the "from" doesn't show email addresses only names.
Oil be bak! 


EDIT: Ha Dave, I was on that site last night actually...I'm going to try a few different rules and experiment with them and see how it works out and I'll let you know what works if anything.
Thanks again!  :)

I spent hours over the weekend applying rules to messages in Outlook Express.
I applied rules for the "from" senders and the subject line also in the same emails just to be sure to be sure...but I got loads of the same spam today form the same emails I applied the rules to.
Is this a ineffectual flaw in OE or am I missing something? 
Cheers for any feedback.

Hi and welcome to the site! 

Hi Ian.  :)
I know a few things about MP3's but I can't find the post Dave mentioned...
Anyway, welcome to fixmyEX 

Hi Solaris! Welcome to fixmyEX...are you hot? 

I'll pass that on Jason. Thanks for that!
