HI
If i set the print settings (page orientation, size etc) when i have a query open, Access has forgotten it next time i open the query.
How the smeg do i get it to remember the print settings?
Please help me im running out of hair!
Thanks
I have a report that prints labels.
Every few times of opening the report, the page setup settings revert back to default i.e. 1" margins, 1 column etc.
how can i assure that these settings remain unchanged??
thanks!
Hi All,
I have an Access DB, which keeps having a problem with resources.
When I go in and refresh the resource, it works fine.. For a while then same problem comes up again.
I've had to refresh the references several times this week. Is this down to a bigger problem?

I have been looking all over for this function in MS Access 2007. Anyone have an knowlege on how to access the Startup section?
Thanks a bunch, :D

I'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
In 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!
I need to enable macros in MS Access.
I don't have Trust Center.
How can I do this via registry settings?
Thought 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.
Hi 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,

I 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.
Hi, I have a simple form that requests to enter date using a textbox.
How can make the date textbox to display last entered data (in this case last entered date like 2006.05.05) after used pushes button "new record"?
I have the following query that has been developed for me but it constantly asks for the password. Is there a way of storing/automating this for reporting?
Code:
SELECT dbo.tbl_staff.Name, dbo.tbl_function.funct, dbo.tbl_dates.CalendarDate, dbo.tbl_activity.Details
FROM dbo.tbl_staff INNER JOIN dbo.tbl_function ON dbo.tbl_staff.Funct = dbo.tbl_function.id
CROSS JOIN dbo.tbl_dates
LEFT JOIN dbo.tbl_activity ON dbo.tbl_activity.idstaff = dbo.tbl_staff.id AND dbo.tbl_activity.startdate = dbo.tbl_dates.CalendarDate
[Code] .....
On tab 1 of my navigation field i have a combo box which i use to select the record i want to look at.
but then if i click on another tab in my navigation form to have a look at another set of forms (not related) and i click back on the first tab with my combo box the combo box has reset it'self to be blank - not selected.
Is there a way that i can get the combo box to remember the last record that was selected and automatically go to it when i go back to the first tab?
Only thing left is a combobox (dropdown) with predefined values. What i want is, as soon you have picked a value from the combobox, save the record and go to the new blank record, the last picked value of that combobox auto appears in the combobox for the new record.

Okay access experts, I"m going to need some major help here. My company has created a new rule to force all reports into pdf format to "save space." Many of my reports go into excel templates I have set up from within Access using vba code. It would take forever to have to print every single one of these reports into a PDF from Excel. Does anyone have any ideas on how to do this programmatically? Here is what I"m thinking:
1. Access feeds information to Excel's hidden window.
2. The default printer is temporarily changed to the "Adobe PDF" using code.
3. The document is sent to the printer from within Access without even showing the window to the end user.
4. The name of the pdf is filled in automatically and saved to the user's desktop..Can this be done?
I await any advice on how to make this work. I already have code to change the default printer temporarily which should work fine, but I'm stuck on the rest fo now.
Thanks for any and all help!

Installed 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?
I 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.

Good 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.

How can I print a report and at the same time programatically set the printer name and 'Print to File' option and set the path of this option?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a form which my company wanted that each single record should be printed from form. I made a print record button and put code to print single page or record. However as a natural habit people go to file > print to print which leads printing all records so 1000's records start printing. Is there any way i can hide print button. File >Print button.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm running access 2k, WinXP Pro SP2 - both are current with latest updates. I'm having a problem getting the select query behind a report to give me the results I need. The query works with two tables (Client List and Atty_Pmt). Atty_Pmt is related to Client List on a one-many relationship, using ClientList_ID primary key.The payments table structure is as follows:Atty_PmtIDDatePayAmtPayNotesClientList_IDThe Client List table has fields like 'lname', 'fname', 'dob', etc, etc.The ClientList table structure is as follows:IDLnameFnamedobstatusIm trying to structure a query that will list each client, and ONLY the last payment they made. I tried using a select query Top n, making 'n' value 1, and it only lists one client, one payment record, which isnt even the last payment they made.This is the query that I currently have....SELECT TOP 1 [Client List].ID, [Client List].Lname, [Client List].Fname, Atty_Pmt.Atty_PmtID, Atty_Pmt.Date, Atty_Pmt.PayAmt, Atty_Pmt.PayNotes FROM [Client List] INNER JOIN Atty_Pmt ON [Client List].ID = Atty_Pmt.ClientList_ID;Can someone tell me how to single out the most recent payment (either by greatest date - maybe closest date to current date - or by the 'Atty_PmtID' field). It could possibly be based on the 'Atty_PmtID' field because the payments are entered in order as they come in, so the most recent payment would be the higher 'Atty_PmtID' autonumber, but I just dont know.Thanks in advance for your suggestions and helpJRSemper-Fi!
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have just finished putting together an access database as a payroll. It is working fine and it will now save the company a lot of man hours in calculations.
When the employee clocks in or out there is a form and the employee has to key in a unique employee number and a password, which of necessity is hidden from view. Of course the password can be divulged from one employee to another.
Consequently, eventually I will need to incorporate a finger print reader and use the information from this instead of the password.
