Reversing Startup Settings With Passworded Admin Access If Possible?
Mar 19, 2007Thought I best ask this question BEFORE I run into trouble.
If I were to set my database to hide the database window and all menus on startup so that users can only do what I want them to do and not edit anything. How do I go about reversing this if I needed to edit something as I would not be able to see any of the regular menus?
It would be good if the solution involved some sort of admin password rather than a sneaky short cut that a user may accidently stumble across.
Regional Settings And Access
Mar 10, 2008I'm new to my job and ms access and not very savvy in the latter. There are fixes for my problem on the internet, but I really don't understand them.
I'm used to dd-mm-yyyy format and it's tough for me to think in mm-dd-yyyy in, for example, MS outlook. If I change my regional settings, of course, outlook and access follow suit. The access database is shared and we print out records as cover sheets for our files. Thus, it's not an option to have me on dd-mm and others on mm-dd. Is there a way for me to enter mm-dd in when using the database but have dd-mm standard for every other aspect?
If you can help, which I would appreciate immensely, please pretend that I don't know what I'm doing.
Thanks

Modules & VBA :: Application Settings In Access Runtime
Oct 23, 2013In a startup-form I have following options to avoid annoying system messages in an ACCESS 2010 RUNTIME!! (.accdr)
Application.SetOption "Confirm Action Queries", 0
Application.SetOption "Confirm Document Deletions", 0
Application.SetOption "Confirm Record Changes", 0
But they do not work, there are still messages when deleting a record from an endless form by pressing "delete". I don't want to add a button. Docmd. Setwarning false in every form!

Spell Check Provides A Gateway To Access Options Settings?
Apr 10, 2008Hi everyone and many thanks in advance.
I have configured my Access 2007 DB/app to hide the default ribbons and Options settings so that end-users cannot change the config or perform tasks that would jeopardize the integrity of the data. One of the other requirements on this project is to allow the end-user to launch the Spell Check feature.
It was simple enough to launch Spell Check from a button on a form. The problem lies in that the Spell Check feature has an "Options" button that serves as a point of entry to the Access Options that I'm trying to prevent the user from seeing.
Can anyone tell me how to hide or disable the Options button in Spell Check? I fear that this is not possible and I will have to choose between Spell Check and ensuring data integrity.
Many thanks,
Dominick:confused:
Queries :: Unable To Convert Text Into Date With Different System Language Settings In MS Access
Jun 6, 2013I have a table in access database which contains a text field 'EDate' that stores Date value in format (12-Apr-2013). Now I want to run a sql query on that field. User will give an input date. The sql query needs to fetch me all the records from access database whose Edate is less than or equal to the user input date.
I am using DateValue function to convert my text filed Edate into date. My query is something like this:
select * from table_name where DateValue(EDate)<='user_input_date'
I am able to perform above task if the system language settings are 'English'. But if system language settings are different say Turkish, then the query fails.
I searched a lot on web and found that DateTime function compares test data with the system date time format and gives the result. Thus it fails with different language settings.

Microsoft Access Startup/Pop-up Questions
Jul 27, 2006I have a database that will be used by a few users who are not very comfortable with Microsoft Access. I have a login screen and a introduction/splash popup. I was wondering if it is possible to bypass the Microsoft Access pop-ups that ask the user if they want to "block unsafe code.." or The security popup that says "This file may not be safe" so that the users go right to the login screen I created within the database. I am worried that there will be variations in answering/clicking these Microsoft Access questions thus causing a variety of complaints when trying to access the database. Thank you
View 1 Replies View RelatedAccess 2007 Startup Page
Sep 6, 2007Hi
I've just moved my PC over to Office 2007. I have previously created an application in A2003 that consists of three databases which I move between frequently using command buttons running the following code to close the current one and open the new one:-
Private Sub Command14_Click()
Dim RegSet As New QwestLib.QRegistryFunctions
On Error GoTo Err_command14_Click
DoCmd.Close acForm, "client action", acSaveYes
Application.FollowHyperlink RegSet.sGetMAPRegistry(200)
Application.Quit acQuitSaveAll
Exit_command14_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_command14_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_command14_Click
End Sub
In 2003 this worked fine but we always had to enable macros on opening the new one. This is now not required as the application is "Trusted" but in A2007 every time a database opens the "Getting Started with MS Access" window opens.
Is there some way I can switch this off as it is unnecessary and time consuming.
Access 2007 Startup Properties
Dec 10, 2007Hi,
I'm trying to migrate an Access 2000 project to Access 2007. I want that the frontend doesn't look like Access. This means: no ribbons, no office button, no Quick Access Toolbar, no database panel. In 2K, this was rather simple, but in 2007 I only managed so far to get rid of the ribbon (by replacing it with a blank ribbon) and the navigation pane, but I can't figure out what to do to hide the Office button and the QAT.
Can anyone help me with this ?
Access Startup Security Warnings
Mar 26, 2008I thought I had this figured out, but apparently am still missing something...
When I start my DB, I get the default 'Security Warning' message every time asking if I want to cancel or continue... I thought this was an options setting under the Tools/Macro/Security setting. However, when I change this setting (default is Medium) to Low, exit Access and restart the DB I get the same warning message and the security setting is back to medium.
Am I in the right area to fix this? Why would my settings default back?
Thanks

Load Form On Startup In Access 2007
Nov 27, 2006Hello,
Sorry if this is a really dumb question - I have just started using Access and I couldn't find the answer to this doing a forum search.
I have made a database consisting of a table and a form. All I want to do is get the form to appear automatically when the database is opened. I am using Access 2007.
Many thanks,

Start Up MS Access From Vb And Bypass Startup Macro
Jun 14, 2012I know that I can startup MS-Access manually and bypass the startup options, including any macro that is set to run automatically, by holding the Shift key down when launching the application. I have:
Code:
Public Sub AccessStuff()
Dim myaccess As New Access.Application
myaccess.OpenCurrentDatabase(" orfs006slsops_repts\_RS DevSOPSOP.MDB")
Dim db = myaccess.CurrentDb()
End Sub
which works nicely and opens the database just fine. However, this mdb has a startup macro defined in it. I can't hold down the Shift key since I'm doing this from a program. In this case, how can I bypass the startup macro?
How Can I Run MS Access Program Automatically From The Startup, Show It In Sys Tray
Jun 3, 2007I developed a program. Would you please teach me how to run it automatically when the computer restarted, through the startup.
Plus this I want to let this program run through the system tray, and not shown in the the Taskbar, if this feature is provided by MS Access 2003
Thankful...
Forms :: Access 2010 - Hide Menu On Startup?
Feb 4, 2015Well, I made the move and am using Access 2010 now and I am running into a couple issues.
First off, I want to get rid of this menu on startup:
Not sure what it's called (ribbon, menu bar, etc). I am able to hide it using
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdWindowHide
DoCmd.ShowToolbar "Ribbon", acToolbarNo
...in the OnLoad event, but this only works when running the opening form from the form list. When the form runs at startup the menus do not hide.
Also I would still like to have the file menu available because sometimes the user need to access the print menu to choose an alternate printer.
Lost Menus In Access... No View Or Tools After I Messed With Tools/Startup
Dec 17, 2004I wanted a Switchboard page in Access to open automatically when the database was opened. I've done that but, as I did it, while in the Tools/Startup to set Display Form Page (in this case a switchboard page but it's not opening full screen and I ow have no way of editing anything), I stupidly de-selected the options there...
Display database window, Display status bar, Allow built in tool bars allow toolbar/menu changes.
Now I have lost the tools Menu, the View Menu and others (where one sees, File, View etc at the top of the window) and I can't work out how to get them out. I can no longer view my Access pages in Design View so I can't amend the any pages.
Can anyone tell me how to get my View and Tools menus back on my Access app window?? It's a bit of an emergency... been up all night and have to hand this in as coursework at uni in about 3 hours and I've screwed up right at the end and can't do the last couple of things before putting it on a CD for my tutor to mark.
Help!
I'd also like to know how to get it to open the first form at full screen.
Thanks.

How To Startup My Form Only Without Access's Default Form
Apr 19, 2006I am trying to display only my form on startup.
Tools-Startup allows you to eliminate"Database window" default menu and toolbar but I can't eliminate "Microsoft Access" window.
I don't know if there are other settings that I am not aware of or there has to be code built.
Thanks in advance

What Have I Done To My Settings?
Jan 2, 2007Installed Access 2003 recently and could swear that on a form in design view, sizing a control button for example, by holding down shift key, worked as I expected; it sized up or down by 1/4th of a grid line.
Today, I hold down shift and size a control, and it sizes up or down by one full grid line. Can't find anything in Options that I might have changed, nor in the Format menu.
Does anyone know what may have caused this?
Security Settings
Jul 19, 2006I am new to the Access database building. I am trying to create a Student database for contact information, etc. I have a main table which stores all the users' data. When the student opens the database, I would like to identify the user. They should be able to view everyone's information, but only edit their own. How can i make this happen?
Also, if that is easy enough, I would like to identify when a staff member logs on. This way they can have special permissions to access a schedule searching feature, to look at all the students schedules.
Thanks for the help.

ODBC Settings
Mar 16, 2007Good Morning,
Im trying to set an ODBC connection to automate the connection process.
The current code I have is:
Set wrkODBC = CreateWorkspace("NewODBCWorkspace", "admin", "", dbUseODBC)
MsgBox "Opening Connection...."
Set MainConn = wrkODBC.OpenConnection("Connection1", dbDriverPrompt, True, "ODBC;DATABASE=live; DSN=live;")
which works fine in bringing up a dialog box to choose the connection.
But what do i write in the database and dsn fields to enable the automation process.
See attached picture for the log in settings. All I have to do is press 'Connect' to start talking to the ODBC.
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can't Save Printer Settings
Sep 10, 2005I designed a query, opened it and printed it. But the margins were too wide and I needed it to print in landscape also. So I changed the settings and it worked fine, but I can't get it to save the settings. Is it possible to save the printer settings for printing a query, both the margin and the landscape settings. If so, please tell me how. Thanks.
