I have a form with a subform that i've displayed as a datasheet. I'm wondering if there is anyway to fix the column width so it cannot be changed when the form is open.

Length & Width
Dec 2, 2005I've notice a situation in a few databases. One is where we track sidewalk construction. There are two called fields LENGTH and WIDTH. In my report I have text box with the control source =[Length]*[Width]. However it returns some bogus number. If I change the field names to something else like Width1, it works fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

Importing From XML. Field Width Issue.
Apr 26, 2007We are importing data from XML files manually to an access Database.
The imported tables are all text fields with field width 255.
Some text fields are too big and we end up loosing some records as import errors. Is there a way to let access generate an imported table with a text field that is longer than 255 character ?
Tables :: Column Width In Table
Aug 19, 2015One of the Tables in my membership database is named [WaitList] and has a linked Form.
The Form is configured to pull data from another Table named [Groups]. The fields are [Group ID], [Group name] and [Leader].plus others from a second Table.
When the [Group name] is selected from a Form Combo Box it succesfully records the [Group ID] in the Form and Table, but repeats the [Group ID] in the [Group Name] column of the Table. I am convinced that the problem lies with the Column Width setting on the Property Sheet which is currently set at 0;2.54, but trying various combinations has not solved the problem.
The Row Source for the [Group Name] field is
; SELECT [Groups].[Group ID], [Groups].[Group Name], [Groups].[Leader] from [Groups] and the Column Count is set at 1 (2nd in Table)
I believe the [Leader] field is a different problem in that the Form correctly finds the ID and the Name but not the Leader. I have checked the property sheet for anomalies, but without success.
I have built this type of Table/Form relationship many times but have failed on this occasion.
Queries :: Adjust Column Width To Best Fit Using VBA
Mar 20, 2013How to adjust the column width of the fields to best fit in a Query using vba codes? Manually it can be done by selecting the Query - Click on More dropdown of the Reports section in the ribbon - Click on Column width - and select best fit as the option.I want this to happen by a vba code and not manually doing it everytime because the field length changes as it is a dynamically created Query.

Export Fixed-width With Line Feed Only
Nov 9, 2006Hey guys,
I searched the forums and couldnt find anything that directly related to my issue. What I am trying to do is export a fixed-width text file, but the issue is that the file has to be line feed only. By default Acces creates CR/LF and the client's import specification only allows for Line feed.
I am currently using a macro, with export specification, to create the file. Due to time constraints and other obligations, I am really trying to avoid VBA programming.
Thanks in advance,

Exporting To A Fixed Width Txt File - How Do I Right Justify Fields?
Sep 1, 2004I have a spec set up that controls the settings for an export file. the table and the form are set up with fields that are right justified. When the data is entered into the table from the form, it shows in the table as right justified. When I run a query and then try to export the results, I use the spec I set up to deliver the txt file in a fixed width ASCII txt file. The data shows in the txt file as left justified. - I need it to be right justified.
example:
$ amount- in the table, the dollar amount is 11 char long and is right justified do it looks like this: |-------7.50| I need those spaces (-) in the export file yet when I export it, it is left. The wizard shows a preview, yet there is no way to make it right.
Can I add blank spaces in the database or space fill the 7 preceding Char in the field with some sort of invisible char or zeros?
Any help would be great - thanks
Forms :: Save Datasheet Column Width Changes In ACCDE

View 1 Replies View RelatedQueries :: Setting Field Width To Zero In Select Statement
Jun 11, 2015I am building a form that uses list box selections on the form to make a temporary query and open the results in Excel.
It mostly works in just trying to make it more functional.
Currently the listbox that contains the first and last names of the personnel also has a unique shorttext 'number' as a primary key for the table (bad choice in my opinion but I didn't design the database I just have to work with it).
The short text primary key is hidden by an option given in the listbox wizard that let me set that field width to zero but still search on it. This is how I currently build the query's where clause when it involves names. I search the primary key.
I would like to update the names list box based upon which cities and locations are selected (both are multi-select).
Do I need to change how I make the "where" clause to use first and last names or an I use the same query and just hide the USER_ID
The query looks like this
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT t_asset_personnel.LAST_NAME, t_asset_personnel.FIRST_NAME, t_asset_personnel.USER_PHY_ID
FROM t_asset_personnel INNER JOIN t_asset_master ON t_asset_personnel.USER_PHY_ID = t_asset_master.ASSIGNED_TO
ORDER BY t_asset_personnel.LAST_NAME;
And the list box wizard hides USER_PHY_ID
By setting the width to zero
If I make my own query in the City_After_Update()
Can I do something like this
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT t_asset_personnel.LAST_NAME, t_asset_personnel.FIRST_NAME, t_asset_personnel.USER_PHY_ID
.fieldWidth(0)FROM t_asset_personnel INNER JOIN t_asset_master ON t_asset_personnel.USER_PHY_ID = t_asset_master.ASSIGNED_TO
WHERE [forms]![myform]![citylist].[itemsSelected]'obviously more code is needed here this is just for conceptual illustration
ORDER BY t_asset_personnel.LAST_NAME;
