After Displaying A Window...

Jul 6, 2005

Hello all you experts and thanks in advance for your help.

I want to issue a message box after a window (a form) is displayed. I have attached it (in VBA code) to the onOpen event but the message displays before the window is displayed. So I tried, OnCurrent, then onLoad, but in each case the event triggers the message box before the window is displayed.

Is there an event which triggers AFTER the display of the window. Note that I don't want the message box displayed several times so onGotFocus is out.

Many thanks in advance,

Phillip

Help: Pass Argument From Child Window To Parent Window?

Feb 15, 2005

Hi,

I have a parent window which upon clicking on a button will pop-up a child window containing a listbox. The listbox recordsource is a subset of the parent window. I want the user to select a record from the listbox which will load the selected record onto the parent window.

How does one pass argument back from child window to parent window?

From parent window to child window, I used
docmd.openform ,,,,,,[argument] and me.openargs in the child window

thanks in advance.

Pop Up Window With F12 Key

Jul 20, 2007

For my Access DB, I have unselected the relevant options in Tools – Statup to hide the Objects window so that inexperienced users don’t corrupt the design of the forms, reports etc. However, I find that hitting F12 key brings a pop up window ‘Save Form (name of the form open appears here) To: ……….(blank text box). As ……(form or data access page options here)’ with OK and Cancel buttons. Hitting OK saves the form as it is and typing something after ‘To’ saves the form in that name. Though it doesn’t corrupt the DB in any way, I find this pop up window an irritant. Is there a way to stop this?

Database Window

Mar 13, 2007

I've imported somebody's access db which hides the database window by default. When I click the db window button in the toolbar, the db window pops up high up and is somewhat hidden by the toolbar. I can't pull it back down as the top is hidden and when I try to move the toolbar,the db window simple moves up so I can't grab it and move it. Any suggestions?

Database Window?

Apr 14, 2008

This may seem silly and I've seen no mention of it in this forum yet but the "Database Window" from previous versions of Access is now called the "Object Browser"? I had code to hide the database window on startup but can't seem to find a way to hide the object browser on startup. Any ideas? Also, is there another way to view my objects in ACC07 because this way is slowing me down tremendously! It's much more difficult to find the objects I'm trying to work on and visually see where I left off. Any help would greatly be appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Running Mdb From Command Window

Dec 13, 2005

Hello - Here's my problem:

I've created a mdb that i'm trying to run from a command window. When I type "vemacro.mdb" at the command prompt the mdb runs fine. But - after it runs I get a popup error window that says "cannot find the file "f:vevemacro.mdb" (or one of its compenents)." But - it DID find it and ran it just fine.

I'm running ms access 2003 and windows 2000.

Can anyone tell me what is causing this to happen??

Thanks!

Relationship Window - Broken Or CE?

Jun 8, 2006

HI:
I have a db with about 70 tables in it. I am trying to see the relationships among say, 40 of them, all at once. I like the view of the relationship window but: I cant scale it, select multiple tables and reposition them, use the mouse wheel to move it (only the window sliders), and, I have to click on a table entry to allow me to reposition the table (should'nt I just have to click on the table outline itself?). This is a really awakward thing to use. Also, I can't seem to 'Shrink to fit' the relationship window when I print it.
Is it cockpit error or just really broken?
Any way to make it easier to work with?
(or, did I choose the wrong DB tool for the job?)

Thanks for your suggestions.
John

Remove The Design Window ?

Aug 30, 2006

Is there a way to remove the design window from your project ?

I have made a program but, the problem I am having is that when
I run it and say the query results show up I close that window and
then the design window shows up. I need the close button on the
other windows but I need to block out the design window when I
use the program.
I also know about the start box where you can uncheck items and
they are removed. Am I missing something ?

thx

How To Disable The Properties Window

Nov 30, 2006

I was hoping someone knows how to disable the ability for users to gain access to the properties window.

When viewing a form (or any object), one can usually right click, click on the corner of the form, or a few other actions and gain access to the properties option. If selected, the properties window is displayed with all the object's properties.

Is there a way to NOT allow the users to select this option? i.e. to disable this option from the menu list?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Database Window Not Opening

Dec 13, 2006

I have a weird problem with one of my databases. Out of a sudden, when I wanted to open that database the databse window did not show up anymore. With this I can not access my forms, tables etc. any longer. However, when I click on View->Databaseobjects and choose e.g Forms than I can click on the code icon and I can access my code as well as the corresponing form in the design view. I can not access the tables but when I click on the "show fields" in the design view the list of fileds is showing for the corresponding form.

I tried that database on 3 different PC's with the same effect.

Does anybody have an idea what could have caused that the database window is not showing anymore and/or how could I bring that window back.

Thanks for any help and advice

Size Of Viewing Window?

Mar 4, 2007

Hi All,

users can opening a file (either .doc, exe or .pdf) with additional data to the record they're looking at by clicking on a icon on a form. The icon has code behind it that opens the document (Application.FollowHyperlink NameDocTo Open). That opens the doc OK, no problem, but what is a problem is that the window for this document is exactly the same size as the window of the access form from which the second doc is opened.

The size of the access window is defined. I'd like to get the word or excel or pdf to be maximized. The weird thing is that I use the same code in another database and there the 'secondary doc' opens in a new window and of large enough size. How can the same code generate 2 outcomes? And how can I fix the issue described?

Thanks guys.

Window Title Vs. File Name?

May 30, 2007

I have an *.mdb file with a bunch of tables, queries, forms, macro's etc. The file is named "xxx" but the display in the top left hand corner of the access window (next to the red key) is "yyy". I've looked everywhere and can't seem to find where this information is stored - as I need to change the "yyy" to match the filename "xxx" (the *.mdb was originally used for something else). Anyone know where this info is stored or how to change it?

Thanks in advance to those who respond!

Can't Resize The Properties Window

Aug 13, 2007

I have been running 2003 on XP SP2 for some time but a couple of days ago I needed to do a 'detect and repair' on Word but without resoring defaults. When I opened Access, the Properties Window was back to its default (small) size and couldn't be resized. An uninstall/reinstall made no difference.

Has anybody got any idea what might have happened and what I can do to put it right? I usually have it the height of the screen and this is driving me nuts!
