Media Player ActiveX Control
Jun 18, 2006Hi,
I have a form with an ActiveX Control for Media Player 10. The player works ok, but if I try to close the form using the PlayStateChange Event, Access crashes out to the 'Send Report To Microsoft' window.
This is the code:-
Private Sub WindowsMediaPlayer0_PlayStateChange(ByVal Newstate As Long)
If Newstate = 8 Then
DoCmd.Close
End If
End Sub
This is looking for the end of the current media file, but I get the same problem if I look for Newstate = 1, the stop button being pressed.
However, if I put the DoCmd.Close command behind a command button, the form closes as normal.
Any ideas?
Error: Communicating With OLE Server Or ActiveX Control
Nov 18, 2006I just installed Office 2007 and I get this error whenever I start MS Access 2007.
"A problem occured while Microsoft Office Access was communicating with the OLE server or ActiveX Control"
What could it be? I don't have any antivirus appz or such that could interfere, and my Windows XP+SP2 is updated daily.
Modules & VBA :: Referencing ActiveX Control In A Class
Jun 26, 2015I'm using Access 2003. In "References" (Tools > References > Browse...), I've added in "Microsoft Windows Common Controls 6.0 (SP6)" (c:windowssystem32mscomctl.ocx).
I've then created/inserted an instance of the control "Microsoft ListView Control 6.0 (SP6)" on a Form ("MyForm") and given the listvew control the Name "MyListView".I wanted to decorate MyListView with some custom methods so I've created a new class module ("DecoratedListView") which contains a member field called "lvw".
I want 'lvw' to point/reference to MyListView, but I don't know what reference type to use in its declaration. Importantly, I also want to capture lvw's ColumnClick event.
I've tried:
Code:
Public WithEvents lvw As Object
Public WithEvents lvw As Control
Public WithEvents lvw As MSComctlLib.ListView.2
Public WithEvents lvw As MSComctlLib.ListView
Public WithEvents lvw As CustomControl
and none works when I
Code:
set lvw = Forms!MyForm.MyListView
The first try (Object) doesn't even compile. I get the exception "Expected: identifier"
The second try (Control) doesn't compile either. I get the exception "Object does not source automation events"
The third try (MSComctlLib.ListView.2) doesn't compile and throws the exception "Expected: end of statement"
The fourth try (MSComctlLib.ListView) compiles but fails at runtime with the exception "Type mismatch". Using TYPENAME() on the control returns "CustomControl".
The fifth try (CustomControl) compiles but fails at runtime with the exception "Object or class does not support the set of events".
I can't believe I'm the first person to have tried to capture an ActiveX Control's events in a separate class.
Change The Built-in Right-click Event Of An ActiveX Control
Mar 13, 2008I am using an active x control that when you right click on it, it automatically pops up an "About" box showing information about the control. I wouldn't object to this, but I need to use the right mouse down event for another purpose in my program. So far I have discovered that the code I put in the the event works, but only after the "About" box pops up. Is there anyway to cancel or prevent the popup? The reason that I need the right mouse down event is because is that I am already using the left mouse double click event, and I can't use the left mouse down event because then it always fires before the left mouse double click event. This control doesn't have any single click events. Ideas?
View 2 Replies View RelatedDistributing A Database That Uses The Month View ActiveX Control
Oct 26, 2004Hello all,
This problem has been causing to pull my hair out all morning, so any help would be most welcome.
The business I work for hired a contractor to produce a database, he did a great job and it looks very professional, but he used an ActiveX control to display four months at once, it is a fairly common control but it seems it is not included in the Image for the workstations here (it will be soon).
The OLE class is called MSComCtl2.MonthView.2 and I remembered using the date time picker control (MSComCtl2.DTPicker.2) and I figured that it would make sense if it was in the same ActiveX control, so I registered Mscomct2.ocx and yes, it does contain the right class... but it still didn't work. I found a second control package which also included the class, comct232.ocx (older but it should work) and finally, both of them together do work... for all but one user. It isn't the workstation, anyone else logging into that workstation has no problems.
The problem cropping up is the "control has no object" error and it suggests that I unregister then re-register the OLE server (which is another word for the .ocx files for those not in the know) which I did, and it complains about a missing reference to C:WINNTsystem32Mscomct2.ocx if you look at the references in the VBE editor which makes very little sense to me.
The users do not have admin rights to there computers, but I'm thinking of temporarily adding the user to the admin group (on her computer only obviously) and un-registering then re-registering the control there. That seens abit extreme, and it should just work!
This is driving me nuts, anyone know what I'm missing here?
Thanks in advance

Modules & VBA :: ActiveX Control Events Aren't Raised While Calling Its Methods From The Open Event
Oct 9, 2013We have an ActiveX grid control, 10Tec iGrid, written in VB6. One of its method, Group, used to group rows, raises the AfterAutoGroupRowCreated event so the developer can adjust the look and contents of every group row created during the automatic process of grouping.
When our ActiveX grid is hosted on an MS Access form and we call the Group method while populating the grid in the form's Open event, the AfterAutoGroupRowCreated event isn't triggered. But this event definitely works as expected in other development environments, and even in MS Access if we call Group from the form's Load event.
Is it a well know issue of MS Access, when any events of ActiveX controls aren't triggered while "executing" the Open event

Using ActiveX Controls In MsAccess
Feb 1, 2006I need to use various activeX controls in MsAccess2003. I downloaded a few activeX controls but I am having a problem with licensing. I registered the controls and the registration succeeded but when I try to add this ActiveX control on a form in MSAccess, I get the message that I don't have the license required to use this ActiveX control and that I should obtain the appropriate licence from the company that provides the licenced OLE object or ActiveX control. Any ideas on how to overcome this problem?
View 3 Replies View RelatedUsing ActiveX Calenders Across Different Versions
Mar 20, 2006Hello, I wrote an access program using version 2000 and the activex calendar 11.0 which came with the software. When i tried to run the same program on access 2003 none of my dates worked and I got error messages all over the place. Help!
View 4 Replies View RelatedLocation Of ActiveX Controls?
Jan 25, 2005I use the Active X calendar control 10.0 in a number of forms*. The mscal.ocx file is in c:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice 10.
(*In the calendar's Properties it says it is "MSCAL.Calendar.7", which I think is just MS's way of confusing people.)
After splitting the deploying my app, it appears lots of my users either don't have version 10.0 or it is stored someplace else; for example, in C:WindowsSystem32. Because they don't have the correct version/path, everything crashes.
So, how can I easily determine whether users have the right ActiveX in the correct location?
The Microsoft web site says "To distribute your component as part of a Visual Basic application, you can use Package and Deployment Wizard". I don't have that wizard in my version of Access (2002 SP3 on Windows XP), so that's not an option.
Microsoft also says to "To enter the base address for your component, open the Project Properties dialog box and select the Compile tab. The address is entered in the DLL Base Address box, as an unsigned decimal or hexadecimal integer. The default value is &H11000000 (285,212,672). If you neglect to change this value, your component will conflict with every other in-process component compiled using the default. Staying well away from this address is recommended." It seems to make sense that I put the mscal.ocx in the database's directory on the server to serve as the "base address", but other than that this option scares the heck out of me.
Does someone have any suggestions how to easily ensure users have the right ActiveX version on their computer - and in the correct location? (I'm not a super-coder.)
As always, thanks

ActiveX Component Problem In Form
Apr 19, 2006I had a search client form. This form used to work fine, so i haven't tocuhed it for a while. Basically what happens is you double click on the client and it clones it to the form.
However just a second ago i tested the form again and an error appears "ActiveX component cant create object". I've made no modifications to anything involving this form so im bit stuck for ideas.
I also received an error message telling me to check - Visual Basic --> Tool --> Reference. That says "Missing: Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library". I have browsed for the file but had no luck in finding a file to replace it.
