View RepliesI know its possible with the right code because I put animations into my VB assignment last year. I just need to know how to do those group things where several objects of the same type (like twelve picture frames) have the same name and are told apart by a number in brackets. eg. imgThewave(1).
Thanks
Is there anyway to change the icon on a microsoft access database. I mean the actual File Icon, eg. the icon of Database1.mdb etc. I do not mean the icon once the database has loaded. Thanks for your help.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI created a db and made it back end. I added the another db and linked some tables into it. Everything works fine except that the title and department are showing up as the id instead of name in my employee details form. It is really confusing because it seems as if it is reading the info from the employees extended which shows the names but then puts in the id's.
I believe that location will do the same thing but it hasn't been added to the details form yet. I am sure whatever is the problem with the other ones will also resolve that one.
I have attached the be and the fe : Test.zip test_be.zip
:confused: Could someone please help me. is it possible to add an animated microsoft GIF to an Access 2003 database splash screen. the picture works but the animation doesnt. If someone could please help i would be very grateful as it is needed for an assignment very soon. Thanks in anticipation.

Is there a way to include animated GIF files in an MS-Access form? I've used tons of static images on forms in the past, but never tried an animated image until now. Hopefully it's obvious and I am just having a mental moment!
Many thanks to all,
Scott
Is there a way using the OLE Object type to get an Animated Gif to appear on a form?

I'm running Access 2000 and want to use some different icons than available through Access on some command buttons. So far, I can only get it to accept bitmaps. This isn't a problem if bitmaps can have a transparency. I don't think they can though. Any suggestions?
The icons I want to use have a transparency.
Thank you,

Hi everyone, does anyone know how to remove the little replication icons next to the db objects when a replica is converted back to a design master. I know there is a way cos i've seen it here before but I can't find it searching. Thanks.

I would like to use icons and interactive buttons for my forms to give them a more professional look. does anyone know where i can get such icons? i'm quite an illiterate fool when it comes to making the icons using icon editors. i tried searching on the web but it always throws up stuff relating to windows xp. i use office 2003. can i use them? if not can anyone tell me where i can find such icons?
:(
i am having no end of trouble trying to display just the print preview buttons and print button at all times during my Database being open.
i have tried adding various options through the startup option but i find that when i activate things so that i can print via an icon i also get the option available to go to the database window, which i want to prevent.
what is the best way around this please
This will be easy for you guys...Ok see this pic below?

I have learned how to create animated command buttons within a form. This works out great, but this brought on new ideas.
Currently, all I have is a stand alone picture (our logo) that is stored in the same directory as the db and to my knowledge this has nothing to do with access at all (other then it pulling the .bmp). I would like our Logo to be animated (simple rotating) during the Intro Splash screen.
Is this a possible task?

I have an access icon (*.ico) file associated with my DB. But when I try to access the database from a place other than my desktop where the icon is located the icon doesn't show up. Is there any way to embed the icon into the application so that when the database is loaded on a different machine the icon loads too..
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
I'm new to this forum so forgive me if this thread is in the wrong section.
I'm currently creating an OHS&W (Occupational Health Safety & Welfare) database. My boss has just requested if I can possibly have it so that when a Employee has a job title selected for them it automatically lists the courses that are required for that job.
Can anyone help me please?
Cheers
... anyone know how to insert these?
I'd like to put a couple of small animated gifs in one of my forms. Importing them as a picture doesn't give the animation (it's a static picture).
Any thoughts on a simple solution would be appreciated
Cheers
Ian
No? Yes? If, so how?

I want to develop an Ms Access Main Form, which will be able to :
Move automatically to the Left of the Database Window
On Mouse over to be able to show with animation (done that)
When Mouse pointer isn’t on the form to be able to hide with animation (partially done, only when the form loses focus)
Actually I want to have a form with buttons placed on the left of my desktop (hiding Ms Access Window – done that after Internet searching), which will be hidden and when I move my mouse pointer over the form to show.
Check my example. I’m waiting for your comments – suggestions
Best Regards

I have a form that includes a field for the operating system of the client. I want this to be populated from a look-up table. I want the combo box to display the text name of the OS but enter the numerical ID number to the client table. How do I do this?
