Access blog back and rolling, ADE (still) on the way, but very close

Sorry for the unannounced hiatus, but the Access blog is back up and rolling.  I’m changing the way I come up with content and will be sharing things more broadly around the team than we’ve been before, which should lead to a more constant flow of content and a spread of interesting topics. 

 

The last few months have been spent planning the next version of Access and getting the ball rolling on that.  Can’t say more about it, but the team is very excited about the plans and we’re making good progress.  More to come on that in a year or so!

 

Finally, the ADE’s are almost out the door and should be live on the web today or tomorrow – they’re currently in the pipe, and I’ll post the location as soon as I can verify that they’re there.  I know that the delay has been frustrating to many of you, and I promise it has been equally frustrating for us.  We’ve got a long list of things we’ve learned about how to make the process better from that experience.  More to come on this today or tomorrow.

  • Welcome back Eric!

  • I have two questions about the Source Code Control : 1) Is there any way to automate the commands on the Source Control tab? Get Latest Version of everything would be most useful because ii would allow automation of a build & package process. 2) I am having problems doing a diff of changes to a form. VSS records the *.ACF file as Binary. I f I change the type to Text then the diff has a full stop between each character and the file starts with the characters "ÿþ". I noted that the text editor I use classified the file encoding as UCS-2 Little Endian. I am using VSS 6.0d. Is there a way of getting a "meaningful" diff? Thanks
