Microsoft Tech Support vs. The Psychic Friends Network - so who gives better support for MS Access?

Hehe. That's funny, on par with those cryptic support line messages. And you know, that Psychic Friend knew more than he lead on, most of the time, strangly microsoft software does need time to 'sweat' stuff out. You don't know what or why something happens it just does, a week later it's fine, except for the dents you've made on the box with that bat... but that's your fault.

Hmm.. but I sense there's more, maybe microsoft programmers build Windows on the tarrot card system, why else would you keep on getting those 'Card Found:; searching for driver' messages every single time? Even though you don't even have such a card? The mysteries.

A twenty-sided die and Google are my most useful support tools for MS Access, I'm afraid. And hours wading through comp.databases.ms-access They're the best tech support I've ever found...and free! *grin* All I really know is that I spend most of my days staring at Access and thinking "hmmm...wonder why it's doing that. Let's see what happens if I do this!"

Never thought about the Psychic Friends Network...bet they'd be just as useful!

Do you think it might somehow be better now?

But I thought the Psychic Friends Network is now out of business? Maybe they need to update it to be Microsoft Tech Support vs. Miss Cleo.

i hate to be the one who says "i saw this X time ago" but this really is a very old article. i guess for those who haven't seen it and enjoy it the date it was published isn't that important. =]
