    Proper name for the "at" sign

    I've always (well for as long as I can remember) referred to this as an amphora - this symbol was used in ancient (Greek I think?) texts by wine merchants. How can you tell if a Systems Engineer is an extrovert? - He looks at Your shoes when he talks to you.

    Problem with ATI Radeon 9800se 128 mb

    Thanks for the advice - sorry I didn't reply earlier. I checked out everything you said, and it looks like ski hit the nail on the head - it's the psu, and it's failing fast, it's now started to cause the machine to power down, and sometimes it won't power up again. I've got a new Akara 400W in...

    Problem with ATI Radeon 9800se 128 mb

    I was having issues with my display starting to flicker and pixellate (little uniform columns of oblong boxes across the screen), and problems displaying colours especially when running 3d apps. This deteriorated until it was constantly like this, so I assumed the videa card was dying and...

    "Flexing" text field???

    This may not be/do what you want, but - Can you put all of the text and variables in the form field, so that the text will always start at the end of the variable value, whatever the length? I do this when constructing alerts, email subject/body and path/filenames. How can you tell if a...

    Trying to find the 'best match' for numbers inc. Zeros

    Aha, I was just about to post something - I might as well. If you added an IF statement to the calculation so that a value of 0.5 triggers a second calculation to divide 0.5 by the largest of the two numbers, then the smaller the result the further away from zero the larger number is. But...

    Trying to find the 'best match' for numbers inc. Zeros

    How about you take the average of the two numbers, then divide this by the largest number e.g. both numbers = 32 then average is 32 so calculation is 32/32 = 1 If one number is 32 and the other is 0 then average =16 so calculation is 16/32 = 0.5 - the closer the second number is to the first...

    prepend?

    Interesting one - append does not specifically mean to 'add at the end', it only means to add, so in fact you can append to the front of something. Prepend is only relevant in computing AFAIK. How can you tell if a Systems Engineer is an extrovert? - He looks at Your shoes when he talks to you.

    Acrobat 6.0 Professoinal, C# Automation, SaveAs

    Thomas, That all flew quite a long way over my head - however, I did come across this which may be of interest to you. I can quite honestly say that I never expected to reply to a question you had asked ;-) "If toast always lands butter-side down, and cats always land on their feet, what...

    Create a Form Field - version of Adobe needed

    Apologies for my over hastey post - I am using 5.05 and as you say it wasn't split into multiple products so it will do this - I was unaware that 6.0 onwards had been split this way. Some less charitable people may say that it stinks of profiteering, but not me.... "If toast always lands...
