Default Window Dimension Settings When Opening Via .MAF Desktop Shortcut
Mar 19, 2008
Hi there,
My problem seems somewhat simple, but I guess since I'm posting this it was quite the contrary. I've completed my form and have linked all queries and reports and created all my macros for the form. Everything looks great but I when I created a .MAF shortcut to access the form directly from my desktop, it opens the form really big and maximized. Every time I open it, I hit the 'restore down' box-in-box button on the top right and it makes it just how I want it. Can I retain this as a default setting when I open it? I've checked in the Form options but no luck.

I am building a db and i want to disable the Shortcut Menu (pull down menu at form's title bar) to prevent the users from closing the main form.
There is a Disable Shortcut menu setting in the File/Options menu but the whole db gets the setting.
I simply want to deny the users from accessing the Shortcut Menu when on the Main Menu (or a particular form) but allow it on other forms where Printing is required via the Shortcut Menu.
Im looking at 2 options; edit the shortcut menu or force a form to disable that w/o affecting other forms.

My application is developed in Access 2003 version. Recently we moved from Access 2003 to Access 2010. Now users are facing usability issues like - in Access 2003 all the forms are opening in different windows and they can move to forms easily. But in Access 2010 all the Forms are opening in same window, if they want to move to different forms then they need to close the current window or press ctrl+F6. How can I enable/open forms multiple window in Access 2010.

Greetings,
I am a bit drained today and can't think clearly.
How do I stop a new window opening everytime I open a new form. When I get going on the latest project, inputting data I can have up to 6 different windows open.

I have a weird problem with one of my databases. Out of a sudden, when I wanted to open that database the databse window did not show up anymore. With this I can not access my forms, tables etc. any longer. However, when I click on View->Databaseobjects and choose e.g Forms than I can click on the code icon and I can access my code as well as the corresponing form in the design view. I can not access the tables but when I click on the "show fields" in the design view the list of fileds is showing for the corresponding form.
I tried that database on 3 different PC's with the same effect.
Does anybody have an idea what could have caused that the database window is not showing anymore and/or how could I bring that window back.
Thanks for any help and advice

Hi guys,
I've had this problem before.
The debug window will open and stop at a line of code even though it has no breakpoint.
Any suggestions please.
Thanks.

I am using Access 2010 and creating a front-end for a customer database.
Take a look at the screen capture I added to this post.
What I want to happen is on that "Supplier" button. When I click on it, it opens a new window with the "Supplier" form and on the specific supplier for this product. There is an attached image of what that macro looks like.
The problem I am having is that I do not want the Supplier form to open in a new window, I want it to open within the Navigation Form, replacing the what is currently on the screen.

I am working on a form as a user interface. I have added an picture to the form and it will change, according to the selection in the combobox. It looks small, and not clear because of the size, and each image has different sizes. I would like to know if there is a a way 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 was thinking that it could be something in the on click event.

I need Access to open an Excel file prior to pulling information from it, because the Excel file itself only updates when it is opened. I was able to achieve this with the code below:
Quote:
'Opens a hidden Excel window.
Dim app As New Excel.Application
app.Visible = False
Dim book As Excel.Workbook
Set book = app.Workbooks.Open("S:OperationsAssistantDataba sesBUSES.xlsx")
[code]....
This works fine if NO Excel window is already open, but if the user happens to have some file open in Excel already, my code doesn't seem to work right. The file does not open in a hidden window. Instead, it opens in the window already open, and additionally, the file is not closed afterward, which leaves the user wondering where the hell this random file came from, and they have to close it. I need this Excel file to open, but I want it to be completely hidden from the user.

I have three forms:
Form_A (main form for the application - should always be open)
Form_B (always open, but sometimes has visibility set to false)
Form_C (opens from button on Form_B)
When I press the button on Form_B, the only code behind it is DoCmd.OpenForm "Form_C". This seems to hide Form_B, and open Form_C behind Form_A (which is the main form of the application) inside of an Access window.
I would like Form_C to open in front of Form_B. I suspect that I set up the form incorrectly or something when I created it, and it is therefore opening inside an Access window.

Hi,
I have a form which is based on a table.
I was wondering if it is possible that when the form is opened a blank record could be displayed rather than the first entry in the table. In other words, it would be like opening a form and clicking the "Add Record" button, a blank record would be displayed and data entry could take place.
Any thoughts/ideas would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Now the getrows is working fine at my end. Now I have a different problem at hand:
Sub Test2()
Dim myrset As Recordset
Set myrset = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("SELECT * FROM Holidays;")
myrset.MoveLast
[Code]....
Recordcount is coming fine
Manual Array is also giving the right result
But the Index method is giving the wrong value. Why?
(Holidays table is just having the values in the array only ie. #08/15/2014# and #08/29/2014#)

Hi, this is probably a very easy question for you “Access-gods” out there.
I’ve made a database (MS Access 2000) with all my clients. I collect a lot of contact info, including e-mail.
I want to make a function which opens a new mail window (Outlook 2003) and automatically puts in the e-mail from my form (In the send-to field of outlook).
Is this possible? And how?
(BTW: I’m a newbie with VBA)

Hi,
I have a parent window which upon clicking on a button will pop-up a child window containing a listbox. The listbox recordsource is a subset of the parent window. I want the user to select a record from the listbox which will load the selected record onto the parent window.
How does one pass argument back from child window to parent window?
From parent window to child window, I used
docmd.openform ,,,,,,[argument] and me.openargs in the child window
thanks in advance.

I hope this is the right forum for such a question, if not I apologize in advance.
I have an application that is being used by six people. When the newest version of it was built, I altered the desktop shortcut on everyone's PC to point to the newest version. Four of these shortcuts still work, but two are behaving somewhat erratically.
In the case of these two, clicking on the shortcut sometimes opens the older version of the application. I have recreated the shortcuts and they work for a while, before reverting to the older link. Going to the application via Explorer works fine.
While I am getting more comfortable with VBA, this area is outside anything I know. Could someone advise me on what affects whether shortcuts work or not? Do they automatically 'refresh'? If so, when?
In case it's relevant, everyone here is using the same versions of both XP and Access and everyone has access to the same drives.

Hi all,
Today some of my users (primarily Access 9 users from what I can tell) have started experiencing weird Crash to Desktop issues.
The issue occurs when the user clicks a command button, which in turn should open an unbound form.
All other database functionality is working correctly.
The form is unbound, contains a combo, command button, listbox based on a query and several textboxes.
On open code is -
Private Sub Form_Load()
Me.cboType.Value = "Mail"
Me.lstResults.RowSource = "SELECT qryViewMail.ID, qryViewMail.Date_Received, qryViewMail.Customer_Name, qryViewMail.MDL_MVL, qryViewMail.Category, qryViewMail.Type FROM qryViewMail ORDER BY [ID];"
Me.lblStatus.Visible = False
End Sub
This functionality has worked correctly up until now.
Has anyone experienced similar issues before?
Thanks,
Rob

My server provider is telling me that my server is Linux and I would have to upgrade to windows to be able to connect my database to the SQL.so i figured, if there was a middle man who could collect the information and pass it along?Is there an add on of sorts to allow access to behave this way?
