I'm trying to find out if its possible to add multiple pictures to 1 record.
For instance..
If I had a row containing information on a person
First Name, Last name, Address, Picture
Currently I have used the Image option in Design view in my form. But when I go to insert Object it only allows me to choose 1 picture for that particular person.
How can I change this to allow multiple images per person. I would also like to have a next and previous button to view multiple pictures for a particular person.
I have continuous form in Access 2010 and I would like when user will click on record, the image, for instance, imgTest become visible for that record. But for other records the image not visible. How it to do?
I've just started using 2010 and, unlike previous versions, the expressions that I've put on controls in a form are not working. Is there a setting that has to change that's new to 2010?
I have a MS Access 2010 application when the User opens form CONTACTS Form
◦User finds single record to be used CONTACTID is identifier to be used for selection ◦User clicks button to open form frm_MAIL_MERGE ◦Frm_MAIL_MERGE has a drop down combo box that reads the folder location where the application resides and displays all .DOTM files (that is all template files) and one more combo box which contains the CONTACTID. ◦User selects single .dotm file for merge ◦Frm_MAIL_MERGE has either drop down to select CONTACTID or UNBOUND data field for user to type in CONTACTID number ◦User enters CONTACTID to be used for the mail merge ◦User selects SUBMIT ◦Application merges selected .dotm file with the information in table CONTACTS for the selected CONTACTID ◦Merged document is saved on the user Desktop as xxx.docx
Is it possible to have a value in an excel 2010 cell be used to update an access 2010 db?
For example, if in a spreadsheet "test" cell A2=3 then in a db "test" a column "value" is 3. However, if the value in the spreadsheet changes so does the db.
I wish to work in Access 2010 with a subset of my Outlook 2010 contacts (all desktop- no network barriers), so I am exploring the Desktop Contacts DB found in Microsoft's templates. It passes contact data back and forth using the standard macros, but I wish to add more fields from Outlook. It seems I need to find the code associated with the macro. I believe I can solve the problem using a Linked table, but am wondering if there is another solution?
Calendar synchronization is another issue. Linking gets me to the Archive Calendars, but not the Current one in Outlook which is what I want.
I have a form that I would like to update a picture on using VBA. The source of the picture path is in part a query that is not bound to the form. So far I have the following code that is pretty much working, but with a couple flaws.
Code: Private Sub Form_Current() LoadDefaultPicture End Sub Sub LoadDefaultPicture() Dim db As DAO.Database
[Code] ....
This is working. However, when I change the record the picture flashes the current picture once and then loads the new picture. It is like it reloads the current picture then loads the new one. I'm hoping there is a way to get rid of the flash.
Also, the code fails here: strDefaultPictureName = rs.Fields("AttachmentName")
When the query does not return a record. I can definitely fix this by adding an if statement to check for a record, but I'm kind of perplexed at why it is failing at that line. I would expect it to assign an empty string to that variable name and then fail on the next command where I try and set the ".Picture" property of the image.
I've been using the following code successfully in Access 2003 & now I need to migrate to Access 2010. The purpose of the code is to use the items that the user selects in the list box to build the criteria of a query. Access 2010 keeps giving me a syntax error when I try to run the query & I don't know why:
My code is:
On Error GoTo Err_Command151_Click
' Declare variables Dim db As DAO.Database Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef Dim varItem As Variant Dim strCriteria As String Dim strSQL As String
[Code] .....
The syntax error I get in Access 2010 is:
Syntax Error in query expression 'SELECT * FROM qryContractListSummarybyDateContract3TYPEBREAK WHERE qryContractListSummarybyDateContract3TYPEBREAK.Rep ortableName IN('Adbri Masonry NSW');'
is there a way to have both Access 2010 and 2003 exist peacefully on the same desktop. My company uses Office 2010, but my department has an Access 2003 application. As a result, I have to have A2003 on my desktop and use it quite frequently for this one application.
I have some small databases that I really want to move onto A2010 so we can take advantage of SharePoint functions, etc. Is there anytning I can do to be sure that the .mdb and .mde open in A2003 and the new .accdb opens in A2010, without getting errors and the Windows installer going through the Office installation process for the respective version? I've gone to the file locations and set the "Open with" setting to the respective version.

I am looking for a book or poster or something that can show me all the access controls and what they do. My VB.NET version came with several posters. I have looked at many books but can not find one that enumerates and explains all of them. I would also like to get similar information for the Active X controls included with access. Thanks
Hi all, I have been given a database from a small business who just want some menial report editing. Their problem is the supplier of this simple access database has disappeared and in over a year of reporting the problem has not resolved it.
The database is locked interface-wise, i.er. if you load you cannot access tables, queries, reports etc. I was wanting to know how you do this. If the database is passworded I have a revealer, but actually getting to the edit area seems to be the problem at the moment.
I have two subForms on separate pages of a Tab Control on a main form. I want to create a Textbox on one Form to display the month of a Date field on another form, using DatePart.
Using the On Current event, this works ok, if I have the 'other' subForm open in its own right, but I get message telling me it can't be found if i don't. Here is what I have...
Private Sub Form_Current() If Not IsNull(Forms![Reviews]!SelectLessee) Then Dim revDate As Date revDate = Forms![subReviewPEST]!DateOfNextCreditReview Me.Text118.Value = DatePart("m", revDate) End If End Sub
What syntax do I need, or how then can I access the control without having the subForm open itself, by getting to the page on the tab control, then to the control on the subform...
I m trying to create a form with tab controls but it keeps on disappearing in the form view but showing up in design view. Even when I delete the tab control and drag existing fields onto a blank form it is still not showing up in form view but showing in design view.
I have a Reporting Dashboard form that inturn has many buttons to open up different reports and forms.
Now I have been asked to extend the access to a few other users with restricted access. The new users cannot see all the form and report buttons in the Reporting dashboard form.
How can i restrict this? They also need to be given separate logins and passwords. How I can accomplish this?
Hello! All, I need to store a customer signature in the database so that we can take a print out at a later time. I don't know how to go about doing this and thought that creating and editing an image within an access form should be a good option. But I don't know how to go about doing that either. So could anyone please help with this and also if you have a better idea, could you suggest that too. I have the application running on a tablet PC so there's something called Stickynotes too that comes with it. It would be great if someone could suggest a solution
I have several new employess on my facilites Access Database however their Monitor Displays are on differnet settings and the databse window is to large for their monitor, how do I set the database to open to their personel settings?
I have an intermediate level experience in access.I am a private investigator and have created a beautiful access database to manage my case intakes, case progress, investigators, clients 8nvoices, expenses and a whole much more for my business.
I have integrated word merge in my database to generate final reports etc.
how can i merge an image that is attached to a record to word?
Basically i create a new case and input all pertinate information for that specific case and in that case I add an image of the subject, google maps for the residence and other images such as facebook screenshots etc.. and what i want to do is when I merge the case with word to also have a page in word to include this images.
I'm using Access 2013. I have a directory on my hard drive that contains hundreds of image files. The name of the image file matches a field in the Access table, which are unique. I would like to match those files to the unique number in the table and create a link in a field. How would I go about this.
My end goal is to display an image for every row on a report and/or form.I reviewed the various options for that, and finally decided the best thing to do would be to put the images in a separate folder in my PC, and put the path for the image in a column in the main(primary) table.In my form or report, I put an Image Frame, and put the ImagePath column in the Control Source. All is well and good.
However, I realize the inherent problem with having the full path in every single row, since I could move the image folder and I'd be hosed.So, I created an Environment Variables table, and I have a column called ImageFolder. Then I changed the name of the column in the primary table to ImageName instead of ImagePath. My hope was to be able to concatenate ImagePath and ImageName as the Control Source on the form and report.
I couldn't figure out a way to do that, since they are in two different tables, with no direct relationship between the tables.For the report, I created a workaround by creating a query of all the fields, including a field which concatenated the path and the ImageName. But since I use the form/ sub form to update the records, that wouldn't work for the form. My next attempt was to try to add an ImagePath back again to the primary record, but to have it default to the value that's in the EnvironmentalVariables table.
Hi All, I am learning heaps and constantly wrestling with access, this is a good thing. However at the moment i recently added tabs to my form to restructure the appearance and content and thus far i am happy and its working fine. Except that moving the mouse cursor accross the from causes controls and textboxes to flicker / refresh. I find this annoying and given all the effort going into the presentation of the application i have done. Is there anyway to eleviate this, is there something i have done wrong perhaps.
I wish to host various controls and inputs from other tables on the other tabs. Will this complicate things or should 1 form with its Tab controls be particular to 1 table........ or can / should a form serve as an input or display to several tables? Is this a bad database practice?
thanks for any assistance you may be able to provide.
I've searched a lot and couldn't find an answer to my problem.
I want to have a field in my form that allow me to paste an image from the clipboard to, for example, a Paint field. Then, I want to save that image to a file on a specific folder in my computer via VB.
The reason for this is that I don't want to ask the user to open paint by himself and save the file, probably in the wrong location and with the wrong name.
The first approach was creating an OLE Object directly from the Insert menu and that worked partially. It allowed me to paste the image but there wasn't a way to save it to a file, neither a method for that. It was an incrusted object, and I think that is the reason for that.
Then I tried to create the object by myself via VB, with the instructions:
Dim objeto_perfil As Object Set objeto_perfil = CreateObject("Paint.Picture") 'IT STOPS HERE
And with the variation:
Dim objeto_perfil As Object Set objeto_perfil = CreateObject("Paint") 'IT STOPS HERE
And neither worked. The error message says it lacks an object.
Then I followed an example from msdn that used a bound frame (view here (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vbaac11/html/acproClass_HV05187062.asp)). The code is:
visor_perfil.Class = "Paint.Picture" ' Set class name. ' Specify type of object. visor_perfil.OLETypeAllowed = acOLELinked ' Specify source file. visor_perfil.SourceDoc = "C:RealPathimage.BMP" ' Create linked object. visor_perfil.Action = acOLECreateLink 'IT STOPS HERE ' Adjust control size. visor_perfil.SizeMode = acOLESizeZoom
It stops in the action assignation, an says "error 2753 there was an error trying to communicate with the OLE server".
I google a lot and could find much of the Paint.Picture Class.
Anyone has any ideas to overcome this issue? What am I doing wrong?
I have a database of film events, for which i have to do posters.
With the click of a button on a form, access opens word and puts all the fields in, including a field called [photo], which is the name of the image stored outside of the database.
Is there a way of getting that image into the word Document with all the other fields? Or have I just wasted an afternoon....
On open I change the Picture property of an image control to another image. I do it 2 places. Access crashes on the first change or on the second. In about 50 % of the cases.
