Hidden Menus On Startup - How To Unhide
Jul 23, 2007Hello,
I have hidden most of the menu bars for my database (from the tools.. startup.. menu) and I dont have a backup of my latest database (yes, I know, stupid.) The only menus I have are File, Edit, Insert, Records, Window and Help. The database window is also not displayed.
How do I get them back..? My database is set to load a form on startup, all data is accessed via a set of forms linked from the first. I cant access the tables, design view, anything. I feel like such a muppet...
Help!!
General :: Bypass Shift Key To Disable Ribbon And All Menus At Startup
May 4, 2014I am able to bypass the shift key so I can disable ribbon and all menus at startup.
But the issue I have is anytime someone makes a copy of the database or it is their first time opening it they get prompted with the security warning:
"Security Warning - some active content has been disabled, click here to enable"
and it gives them complete access to see the back end of the database because while that warning message is popped up ... before they click "enable" they can go do anything in the database including see tables, data, and vba.
Once they click "enable content" that first time the bypass takes effect and the ribbon and all menus disappear, but if they dont click it they can navigate all around the db
how can i stop that?
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.

ARGH !! Need Help On Visible/Invisible Subform

Cascading Combo Boxes Code - ARGH!!
Jan 4, 2007Hi all... and thanks for your help to this very frustrated moderate Access user. I have been using an example for cascading combo boxes in a timesheet form, but I simply cannot get it to do what I need.
I have a table called "Entry", with a form called EntryForm based on it. That table has the follwing fields:
Name
Date
Hours
Set* cboSet
Subset* cboSubset
Item* cboItem
The fields with asterisks are the ones I am trying to create cascading combos for. I have a table called "Sets" which has the same fieldnames in it, which I am trying to use as the sources for these fields. The form has "cbo" in front of the names. I have attached my code in a document.
It looks like all this does is act like an Excel autofilter. Can someone help me with the sourcing for these fields and how I get the Entry table to populate as I make entries. All my code does is push me to edit the Sets table records.
Thanks for any help!!
Toolbars Disabled?
Feb 26, 2007hello,
I have this filename.mdb file which was given to me for revision, so I opened it with MS access but once I opened it, the toolbars are disabled so I can't switch to form view, design view etc. How can I resolve this? I remember when I once did VBA Access that you can do this 'disable' thing. Only that I forgot it how now. So if anyone could please help me in this? I need to 'have those toolbars back' so I can start editing the file. Please do help me.
Thanks in advance
Disabled Keys
Dec 17, 2006Hello,

Hyperlink's # Charactor Disabled
Feb 9, 2008The # character in a hyperlink is used to separate hyperlink parts. Here is a case when I do NOT want this character to do the separation: a network file where the # character is part of the filename: k:datasomeFile#ref02.doc.
How can I put this URL into a hyperlink field in a table and NOT have Access treat it like this:
Address: k:datasomeFile
Subaddress: ref02.doc
which then of course results in the usual "Unable to open..." error.
(I tried replacing the # with %023 but when Access seems to convert it automatically to #).
Disabled And Locked Textboxes
Jun 10, 2005I'm creating an Access form and there are three sections to the form of which the user should only fill out one. So, they are controlled by a radio group and the desired action is as follows:
There is a default choice (by far, the most common) and it will be selected when the form is opened. When the user selects one of the radio options, the section controlled by that radio option will become enabled and the other two sections will become disabled/locked.
So I found that each box (textbox, combobox, etc) has the property enabled and locked. So I just set this accordingly depending on what is selected. The actual result is that the boxes will be grayed out and become disabled, but will never become enabled again.
Here's some abbreviated code:
Private Sub accountRequestType_AfterUpdate()
If Me.accountRequestType.Value = 1 Then
enableSection1
disableSection2
disableSection3
ElseIf Me.accountRequestType.Value = 2 Then
disableSection1
enableSection2
disableSection3
ElseIf Me.accountRequestType.Value = 3 Then
disableSection1
disableSection2
enableSection3
End If
End Sub
So an example of a disable function (which seems to work) is as follows:
Sub disableSection1()
Me.text123.Enabled = No
Me.text123.Locked = Yes
End Sub
And for an enable function (which doesn't seem to work):
Sub enableSection1()
Me.text123.Enabled = Yes
Me.text123.Locked = No
End Sub
So I'm a bit lost here, any ideas would be great. Are there different steps I need to take in order to enable them again? Am I being clear?
Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Modules & VBA :: Mdb Menu Becomes Disabled
Jan 22, 2015I have an mdb file that is being used in Access 2013. The menu appears in the Add Ins as it is supposed to and it works for the most part. For some reason, it remains visible but is not clickable/operable after I do the following code. This all works flawlessly in earlier version of Access so it must something peculiar to 2013 (no surprise there....). hat would cause the ribbon to stop working, what to do when it does, and best of all, how to prevent it from occurring in the first place?
This code is for an option box that either prints a report or creates a pdf and then sends the report as and attachment to a CDO generated email. Other than it (seemingly) turns off the menu..THe site won't allow me to post links so the code is an attached txt file
Open Database With Macros Disabled.
Jul 2, 2007Hello,
I have a 'legacy' Access DB which I need to get into.
Unfortunately there is a problem, whenever I try to open it (using MS Access 2003) there is an error (Disc/Network error 3043) and the database closes immediately.
How can you open an MS Access db with all macros/vba etc disabled, so that the code causing the error does not execute and I can find out what is going on ?
I have not been able to find any such options in the MS Access 2003 open dialog or menus.
Thanks,
Andrew
Disabled Command Buttons In More Than One Form
Jun 30, 2005Hi all,
I have a frmUserLoginScreen that opens frmMainSelectionScreen, which has 4 command buttons on it. Dependant on user level, some of the command buttons are disabled.
I have four user groups, manager, admin, IT and guest. When the guest logs on, the frmMainSelectionScreen only has one command button enabled. Once clicked, this opens frmClientDetails which has a command button that enables the user to add a record.
Basically, I want the add record command button to be disabled on the frmClientDetails if the user is a guest.
I've tried all sorts of code to reference the other forms but I'm not having any luck. Has any kind fellow got any ideas?
Thanks

View 7 Replies View RelatedModules & VBA :: Sort / Filter Dropdown Being Disabled?
May 2, 2015I'm using a dropdown that has the months of the year in it. The user selects a month and the form is then filtered by a date if its the first of whatever month is selected. It works fine but when the filter is applied I cant select the little arrow on the column headings and select the boxes (Select All, Blank, ETC...). It doesn't work on any column, just the apply text filter works but I cant select anything.
It works fine when I clear out the filters on the form. I tried to use vba to set the menusetting property to true and that didn't work either.
Forms :: Controls With Data Not Locking Or Disabled
Jun 20, 2014I've got some forms that I've set to lock controls based on an added tag. I have a loop that goes through the entire form and disables (controlname.enabled = false) or locks (controlname.locked =true) all the controls with that tag.
This appears to work fine when the form is on a blank record but when an existing record is opened, the controls that have data in them are no longer locked or disabled (empty controls are still locked). Is there an explanation for this behavior? I don't want to disable the entire form because there are controls that I want the user to be able to always access. I started by just disabling them, then when I noticed the problem I tried locking them instead but it happens with both. Is there another property I can try that will really lock them if they have data in them or not?
