Microsoft Query X for Mac | |
|
||
| Time: 00:02 EST/05:02 GMT | News Source: ActiveWin.com | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||

Microsoft Query X for Mac uses Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) to allow you to import data from databases into Microsoft Excel X. You can use Query X to create new queries or refresh existing queries that were created in other versions of Excel, such as Excel 98, Excel 2001, and Excel for Windows. | ||

"Add that to the list along with internet connection sharing, incoming VPN connections, firewall and remote desktop; things found in Windows XP but not OS X"
LOL! If there was ever anyone who needed to do a _little_ more research, here they are! TL |

| You should know by now, beck, that TL doesn't back up his posts. |

BTW, for anybody who doesn't understand why Remote Desktop is useful. I frequently run jobs on my desktop at work that may take several hours. With Remote Desktop I can connect from home and pull up my actual desktop to check the status of the jobs.
It's sort of like PCAnywhere, but it uses the terminal services functionality to handle it. |

sphbecker, the Developer's Preview of OS X had a firewall... But this is irrelevent---the question: when?. Tech is perfectly right to laugh. OS X allows all manner of remote logging capabilities. It certainly is capable of VPN tunneling (this is one of the most recent additions, yes).
What you did was start a feature comparison. Something I don't want to get into either, but what happened was you made the mistake of being completely out of touch and aware of what you were talking about and completely misrepresenting is as if it was OS 9. That's irrelevent, and is just as bad as Apple mocking what is Windows of years past in their ads.... I know their strategy and accept why they do it--(lot's of people are stil using 98 or Me or 95). But if you actually want to know what you can do with other systems besides Windows you should check them out not rattle off whatever you want to presume. ODBC support was added, in what? 10.1, Tech, or was that .2 when it became a control panel/app? If you wanted to know (well, Tech will know, I'm lazy right now). Siebal and Oracle are fully supporting their dbs on the Mac. What Microsoft added was ODBC support into Office. It wasn't lacking as a feature--MS lacked it as a supported feature in Office. soda, just before coming here, I was on my Windows desktop at work too... from home. from my Mac. |

#8 sodablue, I love remote desktop over TS also. I enjoy the fact that you can start something at home, leave the applications open, go to work and pick up right where you left off. With TS it would be a new process. The only problem is that is requires XP. What would be cool is if MS had the web remote desktop client like they they do for TS (TSAC).
