Customer Service Forum

This forum is for customer service questions. You can ask things here about your account, your order, our web site, what our courses contain, or anything customer-service related.

While I recommend you don't post personal data here, don't worry... every question gets screened by a Forum Admin (Alex or me) before going public. We'll read it first, and if you need a personal reply, we'll email you.

Don't forget you can also check the FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) page for help. If your need for help is URGENT, or contains sensitive info, you can contact me via Email or the TechHelp page. Remember, this is a public forum. Everyone can read it. And remember to read my Customer Service Policy. Very important.

Why this Forum? Well, I get asked the same questions over and over again. This is a place where, hopefully, you can check to see if your question has been answered before emailing me. This saves me time, and you get your question faster. I try to update the FAQs page as often as I can, but this is easier for everyone.

Hi Gabriel. Like the order page explains when you complete an order, it can take roughly 10 minutes for your order to be processed. You should have everything by now. Let me know if you don't.

Access AND Excel Upload Images Link

Hi Richard. I am learning a LOT about Access through your courses. Two months ago I knew next to nothing, and now I feel incredibly comfortable with it, and I've only begun to scratch the surgace of Expert Level. Thank you for that! My office uses more Excel than Access though, so I wanted to brush up on Excel practices. Can I add Excel to my weekly subscription? Thanks again!

That's very weird. So you can post, reply to your OWN post, but you can't reply to someone else's post. Hmmm....

Weird! I don't get it, guys. No idea what's wrong. I can't replicate it on my end so it's damn near impossible to fix.

Yeah that was the max length of a post in the previous comment. I also filter out "trouble" characters like open/close angle brackets to prevent people from using hypertext.

You are welcome Joseph,

I'm glad it is working to where you can take control of it on your own. Never be shy to ask for help, It doesn't matter how long you have been developing you will at some point need a little help. I have been developing for many years and I still look and ask for help. The best help that I have found so far is all of the great training videos that Richard has.

These training videos are one investment that you will always use over and over thru your adventure of developing.

You can always go back and re-watch the videos and you will always find a nugget that you can use somewhere in your project.

Best luck to you Joseph and Thank you Richard for the great training videos.

It's not the length. I posted that from my non-Admin account too. Works OK.

I hate weird errors that I can't replicate!

I spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to make access open up clean like a custom software (no access UI, just my form). The best I was able to figure out was using tabbed windows and maximizing with hiding everything. It opens up clean with no ribbons/clutter just like a custom program would, the form is 100% of the access window. Not sure if there's a better option, but I decided against doing this because of needing to use buttons to navigate along forms instead of just exiting them when finished like you can with overlap. Maybe this is an option if you build it this way from scratch, i didn't want to redo everything.

Extended Cuts Upload Images Link
Mark Fannin

Sorry, another newbie dumb question. I watch youtube videos and then want to view the extended cut on the website. The link below the youtube video for extended cut doesn't work. I went to the website and searched for "extended cut" and get no results. Nor is there a link to extended cut videos. Please advise - how to I find the extend cut videos on the website. Many thanks.

Mark Fannin

Forget the above. I discovered the TechHelp link which guided me to the extended videos. Sorry for the bother. Still getting used to the website. I tried to delete this dumb question but was unable to. My bad. I feel like a red shirt landing party on TOS.

If there is an Extended Cut it'll be on the TH post.
Just choose the page, scroll down and click on the link to load that in the video player above.

I get the following measage and I cannot get to my courses
Response object error 'ASP 0156 : 80004005'

Header Error

/asp/SendNotification.asp, line 3

The HTTP headers are already written to the client browser. Any HTTP header modifications must be made before writing page content.

I was doing some work on the web site today. Probably a glitch. Everything seems to be working OK now and nobody else is complaining. I know there's really a problem when 20 people yell at me all at once. LOL

Sorry... try it again now.

In the future, if you get a weird error message, it's probably just me playing around. Wait 30 seconds and try again. If it happens twice, then let me know. :)

Right, you will stay on the same page when you click My Views. It will load a small list below the User Bar that shows your previous 5 to 7 views. You'll see a Full History link over to the right.

Where I Left Off Upload Images Link

When I finish a video and leave the website, when I come back to it how can I see where I left off?

Richard Rost

Once you're logged on, click on the My Views link at the top of the page. It will show you a list of the last 7 or so pages you've viewed. You can also then click on the Full History link on the right side to see your complete browsing history for the past month or so. Unfortunately, I don't have it down to the last video you watched in a course, but that's coming. At least this way you can see what course you left off on.
