| Prevent Report Preview from Escaping into Design Mode Guest 05:37:03 |
| | I must be missing something, but I have a report that when it is opened programmatically as a Preview, there is a limited toolbar which prevents the ability to edit the design, among other things. However, if the use presses the <ESCAPE> key, it automatically reverts to Design Mode.
How do I prevent this?

| Report showing number of records based on a value in a field Ricktech101 23:57:12 |
| | Hi,
I have a table with a field that shows the number of pieces that a parcel contains. It looks like this: ParcelID, Pieces, Description
Data example: 1001, 5, Jackets 1002, 10, shoes etc
I need to print labels for each piece that shows to which parcel it belongs. The report will look like: 1001, Total pieces = 5, 1 of 5 pieces, Jackets 1001, Total pieces = 5, 2 of 5 pieces, Jackets 1001, Total pieces = 5, 3 of 5 pieces, Jackets 1001, Total pieces = 5, 4 of 5 pieces, Jackets 1001, Total pieces = 5, 5 of 5 pieces, Jackets
and 1002, Total pieces = 10, 1 of 10 pieces, shoes 1002, Total pieces = 10, 2 of 10 pieces, shoes 1002, Total pieces = 10, 3 of 10 pieces, shoes 1002, Total pieces = 10, 4 of 10 pieces, shoes 1002, Total pieces = 10, 5 of 10 pieces, shoes
If I could populate a table where the number of records equal the value of the pieces column then it's a pretty simple report but I can't figure this out.
Can anyone help?

| APD connect manually only Cornelius.Eckhoff@Web.de 20:21:43 |
| | Hello,
I just want my ADP not to connect on startup. Normally when opening the xx.adp-file Access tries to connect automatically.
Is there any option, trick, workaround? I found a source to reconnect or change the connection via vba code, now I want to prohibit Access to start a connection on startup as this takes too much time.
Thanks in advance!

| Hide the database window Nick 'The database Guy 20:07:55 |
| | Hi People,
How do you go about hiding the database window. The reason for doing this is that sometimes have to manually add data to tables. I have a fully interatctive menu system from which you can show the 'database window', the same button that you have to press to show the database window opens a small modal form which has one button which will return you to the menu system, but I also want it to close the database window!
Hope that I have made myself clear.
TIA

| Parameter Query - need previous 2 days worth of data Vinfurnier 18:54:51 |
| | Hi -
I've been struggling to produce a working parameter query that will allow the end user to type in any date (mm/dd/yy) and obtain the records of the previous 2 days. In other words, if the user types in 08/07/06, the records of 08/05/06, 08/06/06 and 08/07/06 will all appear in the qry.
I have the following code, which is real basic, but I am running into "the expression is typed incorrectly or is too complex etc".
SELECT [111].Start_Date FROM 111 WHERE ((([111].[Start_Date])<=[Enter Start Date]-2));
Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thanx in advance, vf

| Storing calculated values... Exception! James Hallam 18:19:54 |
| | I have read through all the past topics and couldn't find what I was after so...
I am looking to store some calculated values (don't flame just yet, just read on!). I have an piece of code behind a form which calculates a percentage completion and an expected completion date of a job. I would like to store this information in a separate table, along with the actual date the values were calculated.
Whenever a job is completed I can see how far off my estimated completion date is off the actual date and make any changes neccessary.
Within the code there are a few different algorithms used to calculate the estimated completion date, so I would need to store this value as well.
So Questions... * Is this a valid exception to the "never store calculted values" * Would the best idea be to use an append query? If so could someone post the base code as I am not too hot with SQL!
Cheers,
James Hallam

| Update of Field after Change Colleen 16:35:10 |
| | Hello All,
I have a table for my employee data. I have a field that generates date before update of latest changes made. I also have two fields within called CreatedBy and UpdatedBy. I would like this autogenerated but not sure how to make this happen. Since this over a network, the system knows who is creating and working within a database, I'm at a loss as to how I point to this to update the field.
Any suggestions? I'm rather new at this!
Thanks!

| Any options other than ODBC? Guest 14:51:50 |
| | Hi,
I currently have a mySQL database running on a database server and am creating a front end for the forms e.t.c
Im currently connecting the two via ODBC, however i have noticed its a bit slower than I would of wanted. Can anyone suggest a faster method of retrieving the data? Being portable isnt a big issue, I just used ODBC as I thought it was the only way of accessing a mySQL database from Access.
If this is the best way, can anyone point me in the right direction of some optimization tips i can use, either on the Access front-end or the ODBC driver itself.
Thanks

| Function needed - String Part(Source,Section) Ima Loozer 11:58:39 |
| | OK folks here is what I need help with. Lets assume I have a text field that will contain AlphaNumeric data. There is no set pattern to the field such that any given character can be either alpha or numeric. I need a function that will return the requested 'part' of the contents of the field. A 'part' would be defined as consecutive Alpha or Numeric characters in the text field.
Examples:
Field Name = cFoo
Field Value = "102ab3xz4" StringPart(cFoo,2) should return "ab" (as a string). StringPart(cFoo,5) should return 4 (as an integer).
Field Value = "a0914zva33" StringPart(cFoo,1) should return "a" (as a string). StringPart(cFoo,2) should return "914" (as an integer).
Thanks for whatever assistance you can provide.

| MSysAccessStorage Error when opening and closing db rdemyan via AccessMonster.com 08:26:36 |

The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot find the input table or query 'MSysAccessStorage'. Make sure it exists and that its name is spelled correctly.

| Relationship problem when adding records Ron 07:51:05 |
| | Hi All,
Using Access2000, winXP.
Table 1 = tblClients displayed on frmClients via qryClients. 2nd table = tblInvoices shown on frmInvoices via qryInvoices. 2nd table = tblDetails shown on subform(to frmInvoices) sfrmDetails via qryDetails.
Relationship built between tblClients/tblInvoices/tblDetails by ClientID. Relationship between tblInvoices/tblDetails by InvoiceID. All works fine if I input data into frmInvoice first and then sfrmDetails after. But, if I take the defaults of frmInvoice and just want to put in data on sfrmDetails first, everything freezes. Nothing gets added. InvoiceID and DetailID get incremented, but never show up anywhere. I think it's probably a relationship problem. tblInvoices doesn't get a new record prior to the prg trying to store the new record into tblDetails.
What am I doing wrong? How can I get the tblInvoice table to add a record prior to the first record being added by the subform for tblDetail table so it's available for storing that InvoiceID to tblDetail?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions. ron

| Access 2003 keeps confusing form names AnandaSim 06:44:50 |
| | Hi All,
I'm experiencing what I think is a bug - can't figure out how it would be stated so difficult to search the NG.
I have a form. It has four listboxes. Each listbox has a rowsource. The four listboxes cascade in criteria. So the next listbox in the sequence uses the formname!listboxX as the criteria for the rowsource. Not unusual.
Now comes the odd part. As I edit the rowsource - using the query designer UI but keeping it as an SQL string, when I'm ready, I run the Form. But the SQL strings now reference some other Formname, not the current formname. So I thought it was me and I edit them and save and run. Reverts again. Finally, I don't use SQL string, I save each rowsource as a query and use a queryname as an SQL string. Happens again - the formname changes somehow.
Tried Repair and Compact.
Seen that?

| Closing a PDF file from VBA Regnab 04:38:48 |
| | I've written some code which opens a PDF file using :
"Application.FollowHyperlink strdbFilePath & strFileName, , True"
The user then types some information into the form and then clicks a button which generates a new filepath for the file. Unfortunatly, if the user doesn't close the PDF file, the whole thing grinds to a halt. Just wondering if there is some code that I could put in the button to close the pdf file when clicked??
Cheers

| Unable to compact database converted to Access 2003 format rdemyan via AccessMonster.com 03:57:30 |
| | I've converted my application from A2K format to A2003 format.
I tried to follow Allen Browne's protocol in getting my app into A2003 (although I was unable to find informtion on the conversion process). Lots of decompiling and lots of compacting of the original application in A2000. Then the app was opened in A2003 and compacted, decompiled and compacted. Next I imported everything into a blank A2003 database. Then this db was converted from A2000 to A2003.
I had some issues with some missing references but this was fixed.
However, whenever I try to run the Compact command from the menu bar for my converted application, I very quickly get an invalid operation messagebox. Clicking Ok, simply restarts the app without compacting. So my DB is now 50 MB and climbing (typically it is around 20 MB after compacting in A2000.)
What can I do about this. I have to be able to compact the database?
Also, I still have one error in the converted database (that is not present in the A2K format version).
It's on the following line where I'm trying to set an application icon.
dbs.Properties("AppIcon") = strFile
Is this error occuring because in Access 2000 you can't set a universal application icon for each form, whereas I think you can in 2003. Still why wouldn't it allow me to code the application icon.
Thanks.
Thanks.

| Run Time Error 3075 Missing Operator William 03:07:05 |
| | Hello Everyone,
I'm using Access 2000. I entered the following code to do some data validation, however it is not working. I'm trying to ensure that the user cannot enter a duplicate inspection date for the same room. I'm getting the following error message: Runtime error 3075. Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression '(Room = 189B) AND (InspectionDate = #10/05/05#)'.
Here is the code:
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Dim strWhere As String 'Where clause to lookup dupe. Dim varResult As Variant 'Result of lookup: null if no dupe.
If IsNull(Me.InspectionDate) Or IsNull(Room) Then Cancel = True MsgBox "Both Room Number and Inspection Date are required." Else 'Build the Where clause. strWhere = "(Room = " & Me.Room & ") AND (InspectionDate = " & Format(Me.InspectionDate, "\#mm\/dd\/yy\#" & ")") 'Record doesn't clash with itself. If Not Me.NewRecord Then strWhere = strWhere & " AND (InspectionID <> " & Me.InspectionID & ")" End If 'Do the lookup. varResult = DLookup("InspectionID", "tblInspections", strWhere) If Not IsNull(varResult) Then Cancel = True MsgBox "Inspection Record No." & varResult & " has already been entered.", vbExclamation, "Duplicate Entry" Me.InspectionDate.SetFocus End If End If End Sub
Thanks for your help
