MS Access and the End

I have used MS Access for almost all of my projects.  It's a good tool. However, MS Access is not available for Macs.  I'm not sure what to do now.  Do I Learn Rails and move to MySQL?  Some of you would say "WHAT@! You're not using it already?!"  My full time job keeps me MS Access.  to live, per chance to dream…

BTW: Anyone who thinks they can use the END and HOME keys on a Mac like they do in XP is seriously mistaken.  It goes the END of the document or the TOP of the document.  Sorta like "page up" and "page down".  Mr. Jobs really needs to give this another look. 

There is a hack but it didn't work for me. Seems strange that I have to hack my Mac to get this to work.

Burning CD and DVD Files on OS X

I’ve been in the Windows world too long. So when I wanted to backup a video project to a DVD I didn’t know where to start. In Windows I know my options but in OS X I sit looking at the screen wondering.

Ok, now the good stuff. You need to create a “Burn Folder”. Which can be used for both CD’s and DVD’s. To do this (I have a two button mouse) right click on the desktop and select “New Burn Folder”. It’s the second selection in the list. It was there before–REALLY!!!

Now just drag your files or folders to this folder to build your burn. Click burn and your done.
Here’s a link to Apple that tells about this feature. Look at the right had column for the info: http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/finder/

Deeper

This song is based on Matt. 19:16-26
- Revised June 28, 2005
- Currently working on finishing the lyrics

Deeper

Take me through the eye of the needle
Strip me down and make me clean
Not just in body, but in soul
All that weights me down, and let it go

Deeper, Deeper into You
I want to go deeper, deeper into You

What can I do to be set free
Give up my things, my life and all that is dear to me
Eternal life, can it be real?
All that I am – I’m letting it go…

Deeper, deeper in to You
I want to go deeper, deeper in to You
Deeper, deeper in to You
I want to go deeper, deeper in to You

From the inside to the outside I praise You
From the inside to the outside I worship You

Deeper, Deeper into you
I want to go deeper, deeper into You

(capital “Y” was added to denote that I’m talking to God not a person)
