Down Time
Posted by: CodingTurtleToday has been a kind of slow day. First day back to work and my computer went out of action for a software upgrade push that should have been done the week I was gone. I should be up by lunch time tomorrow but we'll see. I did, of course have my laptop to work the code I started yesterday but it was still a bitg stifling not being able to have access to all my resources.
The meeting with my fellow coder went better than I expected and we seem to be on the same track - a good short term goal in mind with the agreement that we have common long term goals that we need to be aiming for that the code written now still needs to be written with those ideas in mind. I've not quite finished the queries of my main report yet but am close enough to where I might finish tonight but we'll see. I've been kind of off the boil this afternoon.
I have been to MSB Designs to download Gridbuilder to play around with - it might be a useful tool for the reports I'm writing now but we'll see. Oh and a last Flex/CF note - the Adobe Flex/CF tutorial that I was talking about a couple of days ago that I was having problems with as far as the Flex integration goes - well I decided to do the unthinkable and actually search the Adobe forums last night on the matter and found that others had run into the same problem I did! It was kind of satisfying to know that I wasn't totally alone in my frustrating - but frustrating that I hadn't searched for this answer before. There seems to be a good solution on hand that I haven't tried yet but might have a go at tonight. I'll be sure to let you know my results if I do get there.
