How to display attachment file name in a form? I have attachment field in my form and attached to 2 or more images. I put "Attachment.File Name" field under my attachment images. "Attachment.File Name" field displays the name of the first image of my attachment images like a "title". Whenever I click forward or backward arrow to see my attachment images, I want "Attachment.File Name" field also shows the correct name of the attachment image.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a header/detail form working well. I use a Dsum to update a TOTAL field in the header - based on all the detail records for that Header.
However, I want to 'filter' or condition the records which the form will initially display from the Header file. I have a conditioning field (Invoice date) in the header which should 'block' it from display on the form. I may also desire to SORT the selected Headers record into a different sequence before display...
Looks like any "filtering" I try on the header table makes it difficult to go back and update the TOTAL in the Header?
Am trying to display images on a form in a split database. I add the attachment field to the associated form's table and add the attachment control to the form but cannot get the image(s) to display on the form (the control remains blank). I can add the image(s) in table view (and display them) but double clicking on the form control also does nothing.
I think I must be doing at least the basics correctly as if I try the same thing to an earlier, non-split version of the database, all works as expected.Are there additional steps required to do this thing in a split database?
I have created a Db in MS Access 2010 and under Options > Current Database I have done the following:
- Used drop down to select a form I want to display on opening
- Unchecked display navigation pane
- Unchecked allow full menus
This works how I want it to, perfectly. I then send it to a client who also has MS Access 2010 and when they open the file the form I have told it to open doesn't open, the navigation bar is displayed (with the form I want to open highlighted) and the full menus show but are locked.
What's going on? Is it some security setting the client has that isn't letting the opening procedure execute properly?
I am trying to display on a form the average number of lines/records per hour that a person is adding to the database.
Trying to work with Dfirst and DLast I'd subtract the time of the most recent record from the time of the first record entered and then divide the number of records to display the average per hour in a text box.
I have a data entry form to add new records to an Access database file called Claims. An auto-incrementing sequence number (SeqNbr) needs to be kept PER YEAR. If the user enters a date the sequence number pertaining to the year of this date needs to be incremented. The first record within a new year of course takes value 1.Records can be added at random for different years.
A simple SQL-statement can be made to determine the new sequence number:SELECT max(Claims.SeqNbr) + 1 from Claims where year(this.value) = year(Claims.EventDate)...this.value meaning the value of the date control in which the user entered the date.I need to return the new sequence number to another field on the form in which also the COMPANY CODE, YYYY and MM from the EventDate, the new sequence number and the USER INITIALS are concatenated.
Quite often I'll make a "training" version of the backend database so that people can "play" (or should I say get training) on dummy data without them having to worry about ruining the live data.
If my real data is in a file called RealData.mdb and my dummy data is in a file called TrainingData.mdb, I want to display this name prominently on my menu form. Thus they can then change the link on the front end to the real or dummy data as required BUT have a reminder as to which they're on.
How can I do this? Further rather than using the file name, could I use one of the database properties (say Title) to display a more friendly text name?
thanks,
Simon

Is it possible to permanently display the file path in Access 2003 main title bar? I.e. whatever object is open the filepath is shown.
View 1 Replies View Relatedi had a database that allowed me from a form to store a file location for a record on a form, so i any time i could access the record, and then open the file, usually a pdf, it wasnt stored as a hyperlink, but as long text
i made the mistake of not copying the files for safe keeping when i got a permanent position..i am now back self employed, i need to recreate the database.
Quick question..
On all my databases I uncheck the "display database window" on the startup menu and for the most part it works great.
However, when the database is selected from the recently used list off the file menu the database window shows and how do I fix that?
Thank you
Hi,
I was wondering if i could get some help here. In the startup under tools option in the menu in Access 2003., is
there any way of coding it so it would display windows database, allows
display status bar and other settings there?
Currently, i have unchecked pretty much everything except "Access special
keys" when setting up a certain form to be a startup. By default, we don't want to see all the tables in the windows database but rather the actual start up form.
what we would like to do is to allow only the certain group of people to be
able to view the windows database without using "hold on to shift key" button to
access to windows database.
Thank you in advance

I have set my options to protect my Db. I have unchecked "display navigation bar", "allow full menus", "allow default shortcut menus" and "allow built-in tool bars". After restarting , everything else is missing but the nav bar just wont go away. I have retried many times but, no go. I have even tried to change user levels on my login but it does not have any effect either.
Also, On my split Db FE, i created a new table 'USysRibbon' to set a default ribbon without the "options" function, but I can not see the new table on the tables nav bar. I remade the table, but it says it already exists. Why can't I see it. All the tables in my FE have the blue arrow next to them to show the redirect.
I am looking for a way to either display through a query with an expression or any other alternative that someone may have to display the last 100 records entered maybe based on date entered or something.
At the moment i have a query and report going form start date to end date but would also like a query/report that will just show me the last 100 records entered.
I have a small access 2010 system. The database design was not good (replication of data all over the place) so I have been tidying up the design but have hit a few problems.I am using a form which contains amongst other things a customer name. The customer name used to be part of the enquiry table, and was picked up directly from there. I have replaced this with the key to the customer table.The only way I have managed to pick the customer name up is to change the control from a text box to either a list box or a combo box. I then have to set column count to 2 set the widths to 0 and 3 to hide the 1st one (the ID) and then set the bound column to 2 to show the customer description.
This is fine up to a point BUT the format controls on the list/combo are different from the text box so I can't replicate the back style and back colour (I had transparent and no colour respectively); the back style has disappeared and how to make the back color as "no colour".Also I end up with 2 little up and down arrows (for the list box) or ma bigger arrow for the combo.

I would like a form with drop down options and when i selected which country and then driving or visa, at the bottom it would display the specific info based on my selection in a memo field lets say.
I have a question regarding the display of a list of numbers that are stored into a field of my database. Currently the numbers are comma-delineated which is fine with me, but I was wondering if there is a way to change the display of those numbers on the form so that it is easier to read.

desired format - 1-4, 7-10

Does anyone know how to lock a database so it can be accessed by only one person at a time? We have several users using a 'local' copy of the same database and frequently synchronizing with a network copy. We want to avoid a situation where more than one person is trying to synchronize with the master. Please advise - thanks!
