Anyone know of any courses for microsoft access, I have few cluncky programs and processes at work and I want to get rid of them and set them up using an access platform.

Other platforms considered, but I'm not a computer programmer and am not looking at anything too over the top [played with Dbase and batch files and stuff, but basic small things].

Also has to be by Distance Ed or at the TAFE? Am willing to travel a bit but constrained by my location [country NSW].

Really depends on what you know, and then just have a look over TAFE options and even MS short courses.

Might mean doing a "basic" or similar to cover all the basic stuff (incase you are missing) and then moving onto a more specific area.

I haven't played with MS access for a while but the fancier stuff (buttons, forms, etc) used to be done in Visual Basic in the background.

There are plenty of places that provide online courses which you could look at.

I entered online ms access courses into google search and then made it return pages from australia

Yeah, thanks Nismoid, UNE has one over the web, and some business in Townsville has another option via CD Rom learning. I dfid do a bit of looking around, but my TAFE only offers a limited range [Mechanical, welding, forestry, admin, small business etc etc], so i basically have to look to a distance learning solution.

Just thought 'I'll never know if I don't ask', somebody might have a course they recommend.

And thanks Dean, been there done that, sort of looking to see personal experiences etc

I should probably offer an alternative, keeping in mind I work for a place that does this kind of thing. Get some custom software written in .NET connecting to SQL (you can use SQL express so don't go looking at SQL licensing).

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
