Can You Zoom In A Form To Fit Screen As With Excel
Feb 3, 2005
I have a form that is too big to view on one screen without scrolling down, is it possible to shrink it so that I can view it all, similar to the facility in Exel? I have tried the Scale & Resize MDE solution that is suggested in the threads but this only resizes your original to fit other screen resolutions - neat idea but it is not what I want as it still shows the original form nut pro-rata to the screen size.
I am not distributing the app so anything I do local to my machine to get it to work is fine.

I have an embedded excel workbook on an Access form (Access 2002)
I would like to change the zoom of the excel "view".
I've tried this:
' xlCharts is an embedded XL workbook
xlCharts.Object.Parent.ActiveWindow.Zoom = 100
I get an error that says:
"Unable to set the Zoom property of the Window class"
However, if I READ the zoom level, it works fine. The zoom property of the window class in excel is read/write, but this may not be the case for embedded OLE objects. Is there another way? Does anyone have any ideas?

I would like to add a zoom feature to a form. If I size the window down to the point where it cuts off some of the fields, I enabled the vertical and horizontal scroll bars for the user to navigate throughout the form to see everything they need to. However, is there a way to size the contents in the form down, in other words, zoom out so even if I size the window down, I can see everything in the now smaller window?

I have tried to make a login screen, I have also searched for information and tried some of the examples but, I just can't get one to work.
Is there someone or somewhere where I can get information on how to build one step by step in simple easy instructions....(access 2003).
Also, how do you get access to open all the windows, tables, queries etc in full screen mode.
I have expaneded them and shut it down and then reopened it but they still want to open out of full screen mode.
Thanks, everyone has been a great help in creating my first Access program.

I have taken great advantage over coding in the "Zoom function" when a user double clicks on a large text box, so data entry is easier (for memo fields and such).
On the double click event, I add the following code:
SendKeys "{+F2}", True
Works great.
Only problem is, one user discovered if they tried to enter a hard return, the enter key activates the "OK" button, which closes the zoom box.
Is there anyway to code around this, or a seperate zoom function that will allow a hard return?
Thank you,
T.J. Bernard

I am trying to zoom in a PDF document that opens in a webbrowsercontrol on an access form.I currently am trying to use SendKeys for the zoom in. Here is the code I am trying to use for zoom in. The problem I am having is that when I click cmdzoomin, the PDF rotates clockwise, doesn't zoom.
Quote:
Private Sub cmdzoomin_Click()
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
Me.WebBrowser5.SetFocus
SendKeys ("^{+}")
ProcedureExit:
Exit Sub
[code]...
The odd thing is that my zoom out button works fine. SendKeys ("^{-}"

Every time a report is opened, it displays the page at 100% - thus allowing you to view a small portion of the document.
Is there a way to lock the zoom at 75% to view the overall page upon opening the report?
Thanks,
John D

I am new to VBA for access. I am working on a form as a user interface. I have added an picture to the form. It looks small, and not clear because of the size, and each image has different size. I would like to know if there is a VBA code that will allow me to click on it, and then it will open in another window so it is bigger with the right sizes. I attempted like this:
Code:
DoCmd.OpenForm "Prova", , , "Campo1=" & Campo1
but don't work
Prova is another form and Campo1 is the field with the picture.
I also need to save about 120,000 images. I wonder if the best solution is to use the attachment for the field type or another. What format should I Whereas in the mask I preview. And if Access internally saves the images or not.

Hi All
I am looking for a method to shift a small pop-up window around on the screen. I want to avoid the overlap with the help function, which is an external program.
I already tried this code in the form:
Me.Left = Screen.Width / 2.5
But a form does not seem to have the property .Left or .Top.
Does anyone have the solution?

Hi All,
I have a macro which runs from a form. The macro just opens up a subform. The problem is that the subform gets opened up in a new window. I have changed the property to modal, but this then still opens up the subform in a dialogue box.
Basically I want to be able to view both the form (top half of the screen) and the subform (bottom half of the screen) on the same screen.
Thanks,
Evan

I have a form and I have created an event procedure on the "before update" property of the form. My procedure is:
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Dim pwd As String
pwd = InputBox("Is the information you entered correct?")
If pwd <> "yes" Then
MsgBox "Record Not Saved"
Me.Undo
Else
MsgBox "Record Saved"
End If
End Sub
the record is not saving under any situation. What do I have wrong?

hi guys,
would someone please tell me if it is possible to locate the form in a specific location on screen, e.g. starting from top left corner or basically have the form open in centre of screen?!
I have created my database in Access and now trying to make the forms appear on screen as neet as possible. I have a main form which is on screen all the time and it should cover the whole screen. I have set the size of the form but everytime i open it it doesnt cover the screen as it does not start from the top left corner!
i also have a few pop up forms which i want them to appear in the middle of screen. how can i do this?!!!
i would appreciate any help or suggestions on alternative soloutions!
Thanks

Apologies if I am covering old ground here but unfortunately I cannot find a suitable solution after searching the forum.
Basically my switchboard on Open includes DoCmd.Maximize so that the switchboard does indeed open on full screen. However, say I then leave my database open and work on a different application on my PC then when I click on my database on the taskbar then the form is not longer full screen.
So what I am basically asking is, is there a way of 'locking' it to appear full screen even if I flick between applications on my PC?
Many thanks in advance,
Paul.
