Hi All.
I created query with dialog box in Access :
SELECT (Format([Date_P],"mmm yyyy")) AS [Date_P], Result, Count([Date_P]) AS Pos
FROM ABC
GROUP BY (Format([Date_P],"mmm yyyy")), Result, Format([Date_PAP],"yyyy")
HAVING Result<>"neg" AND Count(Date_P>0
AND (Format([Date_P],"yyyy")=[Please, enter year (yyyy):]);
How to convert that query to veiw MS SQL?
Thank.
Hi all,
Can I set the default path for a dialog box to look in when called?
How do I get rid of the start up dialog? The boxes which pop up and say "Security warning, Unsafe expressions not blocked" and the other that says "warning this document may not be safe blah blah blah".
Thank you for the help :)
Hi,
I have a report and I am doing some SQL stuff at the back end on the report open. This takes a little time and I want to show the user that its working and I want to prevent him from double clicking the report again. So is there any way to show a progress dialog or something so that the user knows that the list is being built? Thanks in advance!

I am in the process of creating d/base of early settlers for our local museum. The Fields need to have reference to one or more files or programs outside of Access, e.g. Legacy, Word, photo files, d/bases of electoral rolls, etc.
The apparent easy solution was to attach these sources and I also got a handy Attachments dialog box that showed me the list of attachments for a every person or place. However, after entering only 10 names and attachments, the file size had grown to nearly 8Mb - obviously impracticable if the d/base is to contain over 2,000 names.
So, I switched to using Hyperlinks which cut the file size by 90% but now I have another problem: Hyperlinks only lead to one item, e.g. a photo, whereas the person concerned may have several photos and several other references. This would necessitate creating multiple Fields.
Is there a way to create a Dialog box (similar to the Attachments box) that would show me a list of the Hyperlinks for a particluar person?
I am trying to add a common dialog to my form from the toolbox and get the following error 'you dont have the license required to use this ActiveX control. Is there any way I can sort this out? I am using Access 2002. I am getting desperate and any help would be much appreciated

I used the code below to hide all the toolbars and then created my custom ReportToolbar so the user can print the report. All works OK; however, the PRINT button on my custom toolbar sends the report imidiately to the printer. How can I create a button that I could add to my custom toolbox which would open the dialog box that allows to choose the printer, number of pages to print, etc.. (same action as I can get by going to File->Print)?
PS> Also, is there any way to remove the drop down arrow from my custom toolbox? I disabled Customize Toolbox but the pulldown arrow still appears. I found making an MDE would take care of this, but was wondering if there was another solution.
Code used to hide toolbars:For i = 1 To CommandBars.Count
CommandBars(i).Enabled = False

Hello,
I have an innoccuous problem with a report I run in Access. The record source for the report is a query that is pulls data from 6 tables. I have a table titled ARInfo that I have to return amost all the fields in the table (big table) so I used * and show all the fields. When I run the report from the button click event on my form, before the query runs that servers as the report's record source, a parameter dialog box pops up titled ARInfo (table name). You do not have to enter anything in the box for the report to run properly. I have only been with the company or 3 months, but we have used Aceess 97 and Access 2000 in the past and it is my understanding that in the old systems, this dialog would not pop up (The query, form, report, and code is unchanged0. Since we converted to Access 2002, this dialog pops up. The code behind the form, report, and in the associated modules is very immense (This report and form that drives it touches many diferent pieces of the system) so I'm not really about to inclued any code in this post. If anybody knows a quick and dirty trick to disable dialogs or any conceptual theories as to why this is occuring, please let me know.

Hi everyone,
I have a client I'm currently working for that has dumped Access on me. I'm not originally here for Access and am sort of learning as I go along (I'm here to setup, run, and maintain servers, etc.)
The problem is they have a large contact database in Access, and want the forms to pop up a dialog asking if data changes are okay before actually updating. I know that Access normally just does the change, but there is an issue with someone that doesn't understand computers at all making a mess of it (adding in one client 15 times, each with one different piece of information, erasing things in an attempt to search, etc, etc.)
I've been going all over the place trying to research the issue for hours and have had no luck finding a solution. Any help would be beyond appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help!

I have a field in a form to which I wish to be able to browse to a particular PDF file. This location is then to be a hyperlink that when clicked upon, it will open the chosen file.
I have seen a thread already for file browsing, but it said to look at the VBA code, which I have no idea what it means :(
Please help, this is driving me mad.

I have searched the web and found a link:

I have copied the code into a module and the code behind the cmdbutton but getting an error.
Can anyone help me is finding a solution or an example? Thanks.

We have a system which calls a form from a hyperlink. The called form opens in Dialog mode (a box with a border which "Overlays" the screen). It has been working well until now when a new user has started using a computer with a smaller screen which can't display all of the dialog box (they don't have access to critical fields).
For now I have changed the mode of opening to normal which provides scroll bars but this only opens to the right of the navigation menu. Is there a way to set up scrolling within the dialog box.
Hello...
This should be an easy one for many of you..
I have the following to code to let the user select a file..
It worked before but suddenly stopped working...I remember adding some reference but I dont remember exactly the name of the reference..

I have access 2003 but my database is in 2000 format because my teammates have 2000.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Okay,
I'm not sure if this is the right discussion to ask this, but it seems the closest to my question, so I apologize if i'm mis-posting.
I'm doing a "run-time" insert into a table, from the VB Script. A button pops up an InputBox, and the returned string is added into the table, via a SQL command. However, upon execution of the SQL command:
st=InputBox("New Entry")
call DoCmd.RunSql("insert into table1 (field1) values ('" & st & "');")
I get a warning dialog pop-up from access, informing me that it's about to append 1 row(s) into the table. Is there anyway to deactivate that dialog warning box so it doesn't pop up every time i use an insert into statement?
Thanks

I've looked all over this forum and others and google, and am amazed that I've found nothing that addresses this issue.
I want to execute some code after a record has been deleted. If I uncheck the "Tools / Options / Confirm Record changes" option (it's extremely disruptive) then the "Before/After Del Confirm" events don't occur. The "On Delete" event occurs before the record is deleted and therefore doesn't help me.
Are the "Before/After Del Confirm" events the only events that occur after record deletion? If so, is there any way to disable the confirmation dialog and still get the events so I can handle it with my code and not disrupt the user every single time a record is deleted?
Thanks...
