Can't Remove Singer for DB

[madjim- with the Lord]

Hey Laddie,
I'm not to the point where I'm deleting singers from my singer database yet but I can run some tests next week.

Admin gave me this suggestion concerning the excessive refeshing of the singer database:

"this is caused by the "ipoint.exe" program associated with Microsoft mice. Use Task Manager to see the Processes and shut it down. The refreshing should stop."

If this fixes the problem, we will have to shut down ipoint.exe everytime we start our machine, at this point in time. I will try it at tomorrows gig, got tonight off - YEA! Got to get to Atalnta, have a great weekend.

(You can use Access to edit with the singers.mdb. )

Jim missed Admin's second part to this. If it is the culprit, then look in your Startup forlder and delete it from there. It won't effect your mouse's operation and just is a quick start for their set-up program.

Yea, I checked, I don't have Ipoint.exe loaded on my machine.

Do you have Logitech Setpoint instead? I haven't had any problems with it, but that doesn't mean it couldn't be causing yours. Basically it is the same type of mouse control program.

I looked for setpoint as well, neither setpoint or ipoint are TSRs. A search of my machine did not find either .exe.

My desktop runs setpoint, but since I don't use it for shows it doesn't bother me.

What kind of mouse do you use on your show computer?

Thanks Dale.

I just looked and don't have either program on my machine.
