I am trying to add an animated gif file onto a form in access 2013.
I am trying to add a active x control Animation control but get an error,
Database doesn't support this active x?
Didn't see this one when I browsed the existing threads...
Is there a way to include animated GIF files in an MS-Access form? I've used tons of static images on forms in the past, but never tried an animated image until now. Hopefully it's obvious and I am just having a mental moment!
Many thanks to all,
Scott
... anyone know how to insert these?
I'd like to put a couple of small animated gifs in one of my forms. Importing them as a picture doesn't give the animation (it's a static picture).
Any thoughts on a simple solution would be appreciated
Cheers
Ian
No? Yes? If, so how?

I want to develop an Ms Access Main Form, which will be able to :
Move automatically to the Left of the Database Window
On Mouse over to be able to show with animation (done that)
When Mouse pointer isn’t on the form to be able to hide with animation (partially done, only when the form loses focus)
Actually I want to have a form with buttons placed on the left of my desktop (hiding Ms Access Window – done that after Internet searching), which will be hidden and when I move my mouse pointer over the form to show.
Check my example. I’m waiting for your comments – suggestions

I have a form - DISCREPANCY_LIST..This form enters information into the DISCREPANCY_LIST table.The initials combo box is set: Limit to List Yes and Allow Value List Edits No If the user enters initials that are not stored in the Employee_Listing table they receive an error. Instead of an error I would like for them to receive a message asking if they would like to add these initials to the Employee_Listing table.If the user clicks Yes, then it will bring up the Employee_Listing form.If the user clicks No, then they are told to enter valid initials.
I have a table Items, ItemSizes and ItemTimes. That is for my item, I also have a table tableShowCost which is
the sales I have made at shows. I created a query from all of Items, the size of the item (from table ItemSizes) and
the ItemTimes (from tableItemTimes). Then, I created form from all of that.
So, now I have a form the displays all of the information about my item. Back to the Table ShowSales, it has multiple sales of different items, I want to know the total amount of sales I have made, so, I just did a easy query that gets me the total sales, but, I don't know how to get this information to display on my form, nor how to link an item on the query that gets me the total of each items sold, to the form.
(Should of thought of zipping it first)
Also, if some one does ask and gets the database, could they look and figure out why I cant go to the next record after opening it from the main form?
I am new to Access and I was trying to create database for chemical inventory handling.I have two tables. one of my tables (chemical info) has information on chemical properties. I used "Cas NO" as primary key. I have another fields such as "chemical name", 'product number" and etc.
In Second table (chemical inventory) i have "ID" field as primary key and I used lookup wizard in order to fill "Chemical Name" field. I thought it will be easy to pick up name rather than typing it because the names were complicated.After I created two forms. one form is chemicals info form based on chemical info table and other one is LAb_inventory based on chemical inventory table.
I set up Lab inventory form as main form and Chemicals info form as subform. Linking field is chemical name. So that when I chose chemical name from combo box i can see inventory data in main form and chemical properties information in subform. Now i have two problems..One of them is when I add new record to my subform I cant see this new record in main form. I suppose it is because chemicals names of each form is derived from different tables. furthermore in main form instead of chemicals name i see "my primary key CAS NO".
What i want to achieve is add new record to chemicals info form and fill up all chemical information save and in the main form to add new record choose new chemical name which i just added and fill up inventory information.

I am creating a database to track gifts to employees. The admin person will fill out a form for each gift and create a report with a total $ value for those gifts for the history of the employee.
I would like to create a box on the form that totals all of the $'s for the employee selected, so the admin can see what has been gifted before they start the next entry. They will select the employee from a drop-down list (Physician_ID) and when that selection is made, I would like to populate the Total_to_Date box on the form with a total of $ gifted for that employee from the NMC_Detail_Records table.
I start with a table of UserIDs, names and roles (tblUserIDList). I have a simple query off that which lists them in alpha order by UserID. Next I have a simple form with a combo box which uses that query to select the User and binds the UserID field to use.
There is a button which triggers a macro which opens the 2nd form using a query which filters using that UserID. There is another point in that form in which that UserID is again used as a filter for other data. The 2nd form is a data input form. All works fine up to that point.
However, when the 2 forms are closed, for some reason the UserID is re-added to the tblUserIDList. I've never had this happen before.
I have learned how to create animated command buttons within a form. This works out great, but this brought on new ideas.
Currently, all I have is a stand alone picture (our logo) that is stored in the same directory as the db and to my knowledge this has nothing to do with access at all (other then it pulling the .bmp). I would like our Logo to be animated (simple rotating) during the Intro Splash screen.
Is this a possible task?

I know its possible with the right code because I put animations into my VB assignment last year. I just need to know how to do those group things where several objects of the same type (like twelve picture frames) have the same name and are told apart by a number in brackets. eg. imgThewave(1).
Thanks
I would like to add a button to a form that will print the form with the current record in it. Also, to add a level of difficulty, there are 8 subforms attached to the form. As I already have the form developed, I don't want to reinvent the wheel and go off and create a report with 8 subreports. Is this possible? If so, Can we force all the data on the form to one page?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have limited experience in Access, but I have managed to create a user form, where items are selected from comboboxes (Test results; when, who, outcome, etc)
At the end I have built in a command button that should add a record to an existing table, but so far no luck. I have used the following VB code for this:
Private Sub Save_test_results_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)
Dim dbsICT_Test_Management As DAO.Database
Dim rstActual_test_results As DAO.Recordset
Set dbsICT_Test_Management = CurrentDb
Set rstActual_test_results = dbsICT_Test_Management.OpenRecordset("Actual_test_ results")
rstActual_test_results.AddNew
rstActual_test_results.Update
End Sub
I would like to add a page to a tab form when a certain button is clicked. I don't want to use the visible/hide solution. So I already found out that this can only be done in design view. I am using the following code:
Code:
Private Sub cmd_StrategyAdd_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "Form1", acDesign
Me.tabMain.Pages.Add
DoCmd.OpenForm "Form1", acNormal
End Sub
I am getting the error: Run-time error 2467. The expression you entered refers to an object that is closed or doesn't exist.I am sure the name of my tab form is tabMain.
I have a form (called Form2) with say 3 text boxes, called txt_Field1, txt_Field2 and txt_Field3.
In txt_Field1 the user specifies the number of records to be added to an existing table. The fields txt_Field2 and txt_Field3 are used to pre-populate the records with default values.
Furthermore, I have set up a table called Table1. It's headers are ID, Strategy, divRate. ID is Autonumber, Strategy is Text, and divRate is Number.
Suppose the user inputs the following on Form2:
txt_Field1 = 3
txt_Field2 = Covered
txt_Field3 = 0.04
How do I programmatically add 3 records (since txt_Field1 = 3) to Table1 such that the table will look like:
ID, Strategy, divRate
1, Covered, 0.04
2, Covered, 0.04
3, Covered, 0.04
Whenever I add a new record to a table with a form I created, it records the "ID autonumber" that it's associated with instead of the text. For instance, if I selected "Kevin" from a combobox list and had the form record it, it will show up as "1" in the table under the field name "Names".
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to sum the row in a access form. There are 3 text boxed called TXT1, TXT2, TXT3. I have added an additional text box and typed the following txt;
=([TXT1]+[TXT2]+[TXT3])
Instead of totalling the row it just puts the number together. For example TXT1 contains 1. TXT2 contains 2, and TXT3 contains 3 so the answer should be 6 (1+2+3) but it shows 123. I have tried putting SUM in front but that gives me the total of the whole column not just that row.
I'm having a bit of a problem with a database I'm trying to create, what I am trying to do is create a database to handle jobs in an IT workshop. The idea is that you generate the job card and then at the bottom you have a section to enter in the parts that are required for the job, and then have a report that prints out a list of all the parts required for all the jobs under a heading of the job card number.
The problem I am having is how to add this sub form / table to the job card sheet. I tried putting in a sub table, but that wont let me make additions to it, and I tried putting on a form but that wont retain more than one entry per job card (I have put it on continuous form).
I have a table for all my members, then a table for each class (for attendance purposes) and the class tables are linked to the master via subdatasheets. I also have a form that pulls up all the details of a member and I want to show all the times they've attended class. Is it possible to add the subdata sheets to the form or would I have to add the attendance record as a subform that filters on the person?
