I'm really hoping someone can help with a topic which has cropped up from time to time in the past but which never seems to have been answered satisfactorily, and that's displaying html in a database.
I have a large database which already includes html codes in the fields - it's a complete set of email digest posts with fields for date, sender, message number, subject and body text - which I'd like to display in it's original form. An ordinary form shows all the html code making the contents difficult to read; is there a simple way of being able to view this so that the correct original message layout is shown, i.e., the html is parsed (is that the right expression)?
Perhaps I should point out I'm a complete novice when it comes to Access; I can write a simple form easily enough, but I have zero knowledge of VBA or anything similar, so non-technical answers or a step by step example would be very much appreciated.
I have a scenario at work I need some help with. I'm just checking to make sure it is possible before I dive further into it.
We need a database for approximately 40 people to access at one time. They don't really need to access the database itself just be able to update it.
The question that was posed to me was this: Can we use an HTML page to update the database?
This will not be run through SQL or IIS or anything of that nature. It will just be an HTML page that is accessed through a users folder. On the HTML page will be the input boxes and a submit and reset button.
I made a data access page, but I really don't want the users to be able to go through the previous entries. I also wasn't sure if more than one person could be accessing the page at once.
Is a simple form page with a submit button possible not running on a web server?
I have scoured the net and these forums looking for the answer but cannot find a good solution.
I am producing flow charts in Visio, and then saving them as HTML documents for use on our Intranet. Within the Visio flow diagrams I am using Hyperlinks on various shapes and text, to enable the viewer to open various other documents in various other applications. This seems to work fine in my web browser for normal office documents, like word and excel, but I need to be able to do it for MS Access databases too! Because the web browser tries to open it in the browser itself, the database won't open and I just get the normal "Web Page Could not be found" screen.
Another useful feature would be to be able to open to a number of different specific forms from a database, depending on which hyperlink is clicked. I assume this is not possible as you only seem to be able to define on page to be displayed upon opening the DB. Am I correct?
I have a database which I can add to, edit and delete via an asp.net page, it also allows me to add html tags. My problem is when the data is then rebinded to the page any HTML tags are changed from '<' to '<' and from '>' to '>' this results in the tags and contents being displayed on the page as text instead of being interpreted as HTML and then formatting the page - most frustrating!
Any help is greatly appreciated, this is a relatively new area for me so many thanks in advance.
I have small program in access database which contains about 100 cca tables, querys, forms, macros in total. Customer which both program from me, wants me to enable him to access this program not just from work, it wants to access it from home or when he is on business trip from hotel etc.
I am little confused how to achieve this and what are my options? I assume I have to set by database somewhere on server and so my customer could access it any time? Do I have to upsize access database to SQL express or similar?
Also, one more important question: is it possible to "convert" access database into HTML code or similar so it could be accessed via web browser without need to install microsoft access and with freedom that it can be opened from any type of PC OS (Linux, Mac etc)?
I am new to microsoft access and i am currently using microsoft access 2010...I have a students table in my access database and i have now append this table with data from a HTMLhow can i do that? using append query
I need, in some way or another, to be able to import an HTML code from an HTML file into Access. It would be ideal if the end result is a table with one memo field named "HTML".
I know is seems strange, but I need the code itself. I've managed to do a bit of duct-tape work, and import from HTML, but this results in only the text of the HTML code (Meaning the text of the web page, not the tags).
I know I'm crazy for wanting this, but is there anyone out there who can give direction/guidance?
I read a tutorial for displaying images from a database but ran into an error: Within my table "teams" I have a field called 'timage' which contains the path to an image (/images/logo.jpg). All I want to do is display that logo next to its corresponding team.
I thought I could do something like this: <% dim pic pic="SELECT timage FROM teams WHERE ID=1" %> <IMG SRC="pic">
Now I am sure everyone will laugh becuase that is really wrong, but I am new and don't know the problem. The tutorial said I had to create a new .asp page to display the image, I didn' think that applied to what I am trying to do and tried to work around that. Please help me. thanks!
Is there a way to use a command button to display the database window. I changed the Startup to not show the database window and want to be able to show it using a command button. I would appreciate any help.
I have created and saved a form in access automatically from database table. But when I change Display Control of a field from text box to combo box,it is not reflected in the form automatically after I refresh the form.
I have a Inventory DB and i want to integrate scanning. So far i have a table called StockInfo, this table holds information about bar codes (device type, make, model). I have a form called Scan_Barcode, on this form I want to be able to scan a bar code into a text box (text0) and use a afterupdate and requery function to display the results onto a form called EnterInventory.
Not only just the results but I want certain columns from the query to display in certain text boxes on this form. I have a query called FindProduct. that filters the criteria by whats entered on the Scan_Barcode text box (text0). So when i scan a certain bar code i can get the query to display certain product information for the bar code. I just cant get the results onto the HarwareStock form.
I have recently finished a data access page and have one last thing to do on it. When you press a button (Command0), it saves the record into the table. This is fine, but I want it to display a message box as well. I am not sure what code to put in and where to put it. Below is a shortened copy of the code from Microsoft Script Editor, i have chopped the top bit off:
I have a local intranet where I have a link in a web page to .mdb file. For some reason it does not consisitenly open the database when clicked? Any ideas? Links to Excel work fine.
Check around and can't find anything useful, more of a case of can't see the woods for the trees really :p but here we go:
I doing a very simple form which I want to output to HTML (directly), it work fine and is ideal for what I need but I want to use a template to alter the colours and add a meta refresh tag but I cant get it working.
Help file next to useless so I wondered if anyone can point me in the right direction - Is it a css file ? or can I use a html file ? I've tried with both but still no joy :(
I've used Access 2003 to create a database which contains a table linked directly to the "Orders" table on my mysql server. This table holds all of the customer orders placed on our website. I next created a form in access to give me a nice justified view of the orders.
My Problem? The field on the mysql server that holds the line item details for each order is a "Memo" field, and all of the text is formatted in html it appears. When viewed on the form, I see the all of the raw code, and not the nicely formatted text. If i highlight a section of the code from the form, and paste it in a Html editor (Frontpage for example), I see the line items nicely formatted as intended.
Is there a way to get this memo field to display the formatted html text instead?
My access skills are pretty limited, so detailed steps would be appreciated.
I'm trying to get a field in my Data Access Page to display the last time a field was updated, I figured I would have to do this in HTML, after a lot of dead ends elsewhere. Here is the code:
<SCRIPT language=vbscript event=BeforeUpdate(dscEventInfo) for=MSODSC> <!-- Dim DateModified DateModified = Date 'Current System Date dscEventInfo.DataPage.Recordset.Fields("DateModified") = Date
--> </SCRIPT>
Any clues where I would enter this in the HTML source?
I use vbs to download the page from a certain URL.In order to import data I go to get external data ,html format.Wizard shows that there are 5 different tables whithin the page.I need only one of them ,and more important I need it automaticly imported everytime I open my DB.
Tnx in advance

Is is possible to save Access forms in HTML and add data using these forms withouth any kind of special software? I would like to interact beteween MS Front Page and Access. I will use front page to design my web site and map to the tables in Access into which add or query data.
I have a form that needs to be updated by multiple users. The information must be entered in the following format:
<a href="http://website.com">Write any title here</a> and then they can add a description
The users are not familiar with HTML and often submit it with incorrect syntax. I would like to prevent these errors prior to submission by writing some sort of validation. Is there a way to accomplish this? I imagine a macro is best for this situation. Multiple entries are often entered in a single cell (not sure if this would mess with the validation?)
Implementation is going fabu, but I had a request to add a button on the main form to open the HTML FAQ I wrote. I thought I would be able to quickly point the button to the file using the button creation wizard, but that doesn't seem to work so well. (not at all)
Did I miss something or is this something that needs to be coded with VBA (very little knowledge of VBA here... negligible even.)
First quetion how can i make some form to be with two frames, one is the navugation tree and the second one is a frame that is changing akk the time, which means the navigation tree is not changing ever. i am trying to build somthing like asp with two frames and a record set and i dont know how.
