Off topic Net Meeting

system · July 24, 2002, 1:29pm

If you set up VPN and Remote Access, you would only have to open one port.
Once the user is authenticated and inside the network, they could Net
Meeting to their hearts content. For a Microsoft PPTP VPN, I open port
1723. That's it. The client receives an IP address inside my network
(trusted), so they have access to all the machines on our internal LAN. If
Fred wants to use Net Meeting, but Joe prefers Terminal Services and Jim
wants to use VNC, it doesn't change my configuration at all. All three
authenticate the same way, then they're in.

I am trying to do several RB reports and what few skills I had after the
beginning class have gotten really rusty (can you hear my fingers
creaking?). I am trying to eliminate any voided PO release $ from a report
summarizing PO's issued to a job. I basically want to say: If PORel.Void
Release is yes, print void, otherwise print the calculated field (ExtCost)
that represents the extended cost for the PO release. No matter how I try
to configure my "If" statement, I end up with an error saying I have an
invalid operation.

I started with this statement: IIf (Void Release = yes,"Void",ExtCost). I
tried testing existing Vantage field instead of my calculated field, and it
still didn't work. I know I must be missing something really simple. Any
ideas?

Nora,
One thing is that the VBreport syntax doesn't like diferent data types.
Example: IIF(1=1,"yes", 1) This will return an error because option one is
text and option 2 is neumeric. If you arent doing any other calculations on
your result, then you would want your formula to look like IIf (Void
Release = yes,"Void",string(ExtCost)). But if you if you need to perform
other calculation you could create a second calculated field and do this.
IIf (Void Release = yes,0,string(ExtCost)). IIf (Void Release =
yes,"Void"," "). Then You can park your "VOID" selection whereever its
appropriate to see.

In cases like this I cheat and duplicate that report band with the one field
changed - either the value or the "Void" message - and then condition the
bands so only one or the other prints if the void flag is true or false.

This sounds pretty risky to me. Anyone care to scare my pants off about
