    pump damage?

    GHartmann, I work as an application engineer for a pump manufacturer. We have some inline, multi-stage pumps that increase NPHSr as the flow decreases. I attached the pump curve to this post. I believe that we have only one product line which behaves this way. It is probably not very common...

    Macro Enable Excel Viewer

    How about OpenOffice? You would have to tweak your code, but if the code is not too complex it should be relatively quick.

    Coupling Guards

    I read through some of the OSHA stuff. It looks to me like they would require guards for rotating equipment. From http://www.osha.gov/pls/oshaweb/owadisp.show_document?p_id=9847&p_table=STANDARDS US Federal Register 1910.219(i)(2) and 1910.219(c)(2)(i) (which I suppose you have already read)...

    Building simple Macro help

    Perhaps an un-necessary tip, but if the number of values is not constant between spreadsheets (but the same between each row) you can add CountA to LiteYear's tip This will give you the last value in each row, no matter how many columns there are... the caveat is that the average column...

    Assignment of Intellectual Property Clause

    I don't understand your meaning, msquared48. At this point, I'm not really trying to protect my 'Intellectual Property', its worth much less than the job (if anything). I'm more concerned with a former employer suing me for taking a position at a new company, or that same employer suing me for...

    Assignment of Intellectual Property Clause

    By no means is this a 100% device. The company (a small company, btw) sent back my revisions. Their new revisions are just a reiteration of their original clause(s). Arguably the new revisions are even more restrictive.

    Assignment of Intellectual Property Clause

    I'm currently thinking that I will suggest replacing the text with Section 2870 of the California Labor Code. (Link to Labor Code) http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/cgi-bin/displaycode?section=lab&group=02001-03000&file=2870-2872 I've been reading some things on standard Employment Agreements, and...

    Assignment of Intellectual Property Clause

    These contact clauses for the assignment of all property rights to the company have always bugged me. Although, I am completely willing to accept that if I do something with company time or resources, they have every right to own my work. But today I'm reading a clause which states that the...

    Software Development within Engineering Firms or Departments

    Wow. Thanks for all the great advice guys. I have a lot of directions to look... time to get looking. I guess steellion sums things up well, it's not for lack of interest -- but lack of resources that keeps the engineering firms from hiring software guys. But, I hear from others that there...

    Software Development within Engineering Firms or Departments

    Do software development positions exist within engineering firms or departments? I'm pretty new to this forum, but I have seen a goodly number of people with some impressive experience within the world of engineering. Hopefully there is some guidance or knowledge about this sub-field. I...
