  1. We've had an issue for 5 months now where we've been unable to access the OneDrives/Sharepoints of our existing clients, except with personal email addresses. Microsoft Support have proven wholly incapable of solving the problem. I spent a month of wasted time being made to trouble-shoot. Then they did the same to our clients.

     

    It's a backend software engineering issue (the type of problem Dropbox would solve in a jiffy), but they steadfastly maintain this idea that it's a configuration problem. Never have I experienced such incompetence in a tech company. It has reminded me why, all those years ago, I went bought a Mac and never looked back.

     

    The problem appears to be that our client's 365 accounts ("tenants" in MS parlance) are unable to forget an old account of ours.

     

    We upgraded to 365 when our MS Teams trial ran out, instead of moving to the free version. But before upgrading to 365 we had two accounts. One that we were using for MS Teams and another that we were using for OneDrive file-sharing. The file-sharing account had our domain associated with it, but we wanted to upgrade the MS Teams account because that had all our chat history. Once we upgraded we deleted the other account and re-associated our domain with the newly upgraded account. This seems to have triggered the problem.

     

    It's this deleted account that our client's tenants are unable to forget about. So now, when we are sent an invite to file-sharing, we get a message that our email address/account can't be found on our client's directory.

    How do you report how many hinges per door? 

    It's definitely HWQty, which is silly. It could easily have been HWHingeQty.

     

    I imagine it's traditional to refer to 1 1/2 pairs (being 3) because they would have typically come in packs of two.

    There is no good way to do this then because many around the globe would be confused by “title” or “heading” as evidenced by the phenomena which inspired this thread.  Perhaps the folks in charge should talk to an expert on this UI and translation stuff.  That’s what we do for projects we design in other countries 😉

    Sure way to get nothing done 😆. Better to change it and see how it goes.

  4. 1. You need to make sure all your callouts are set to use "relative path"

    2. You'll probably still find it a pain in the ass. I hate the way the Notes Manager works.

    3. Make use of the Text > Reconcile Notes command. It can fix many problems in a jiffy.

    4. Why do you keep your VW files on the VW drive (I assume by this you mean VW Cloud Services) but your notes database on Google Drive? Why not put your notes database on VCS too?
