Subject: MS Access and Visual Basic User Group Meeting - 75

Monthly Meeting of the MS Access and Visual Basic User Group
Tuesday, January 16 at 5:30 at 22 Hampton St.,
Alliance Aircraft, Pease Tradeport, Portsmouth, NH.
 Tel Bob Young at 603-964-3040.

PROGRAM -

5:30 - Access and Visual Basic Clinic - Bring in your problems for triage
and treatment.

6:30 - Jim Rand will share thoughts on use of Windows Host Script with
examples to show how the operating system can be controlled - very much like
the .bat files do for MS-DOS.  To try it out on your own PC,
1) Open up NotePad
2) Enter the following: msgbox "hi there"
3) Save the file as hithere.vbs to your desktop.  Make sure the file
extension is "vbs"
4) Close NotePad
5) Click on the hithere icon

The use of script is a powerful way to manipulate programs, files, data, and
actions such as cleanup and deployment.  If you have the chance, review
VBScript and Jscript before the meeting.

As always there will be ample time for attendees to bring up items of
special interest as well as discuss any current issues or problems.

DIRECTIONS

>From the Spaulding Turnpike (Rte 4/16)  exit on Goselin Road heading west
into the Tradeport through the main gate.  You will be on Pease Blvd.   At
the stop sign take a left on New Hampshire Ave.  Take a right on Stratham
St - the company Londavia will be on the corner - After the road bears to
the left, take another quick right which will bring you to the Pan Am hanger
where you bear to the left. Pass through the stop sign (a beige tower will
be on the right),  then a right on Hampton.  22 is the first building on the
right with the sign "Color" out front.


All the best
