I'm using "Application.FollowHyperlink" to send parameters to a remote application.
Each time i hit the enter button an 'After Update' event opens a web page.But i don't want the web page to be opened.
is there another method to send parameters over the web without opening a web page?
Right, I knew this day would arrive and have somewhat been dreading it but excited by the idea of a new development at the same time.
We have a database within the school on our server that staff would like to be able to access at home through the internet. They will need to be able to view, add and edit data. What is my best way of doing this for someone who has never done this before?
Is it possible just to put a link on a website? or do I have to covert?
Is the MSAcces dataaccess pages something i should look at? Should I use VB.NET? ASP.NET?Frontpage? Everyone seems to have a different take on this from the forum but most of the advice was quite old. So what do you all think out there?
And How can I learn really really fast? Any online tutorials or Books people can suggest would be ever so helpful as well.
Thanks alot in advance for any support you are able to give me with regards my best route of action.
I am trying to create a button that opens up a webpage. I get how to create a hyperlink on a button. The problem is, I need to open a specific page depending on the information in a text box.
The text box displays the tracking number for the current record. That number is populated automatically via a control source. The problem is that I need to open different web pages depending on the tracking number displayed. For example, UPS has a specific start to their number (1ZX....). Other trucking companies have a specific format, also.
So how do I tell it to look at the tracking number and then open the corresponding web page?
In addition to my Intro to Access class, I am taking a Web Programming class, which has the same general assignment, but for Web pages, instead of an Access database; create at least 3 pages, 1 each for financial data, customer relations and product/service info.
I would like to create a small Access database connected to a Web page. I won't have a server, but I can run everything off a computer. I have a book that tells me the steps to do all this, but I'm supposed to install MS SQL Server (I chose to download MS SQL Express Server), and I can't get Access to talk to it. Among other things, I noticed that I could not stop SQL Server, nor could I start SQL Browser. I did enable TCP/IP (I think). I uninstalled the whole thing, thinking I could start from scratch.
How to publish my database on a Web page.
I have a simple data entry form where I can key the "row", "COLUMN", SPACE "a" and space "B" onto an access 2010 table. Is there a way that if I key the same four fields, e.g., A5AB that I get a message back before updating telling me that combination already exists?
I do generate a calculated data field, which in this case would be "a5ab" and which is displayed on report screens. Could the value of this calculated field be stored on the Table and be used to prevent the same value from again be entered on the Table?
I'm in Access 2013 and I built a form with multiple drop downs. Here is what I have in the same order of which the user must choose from......
Document "Field Observation", "Monthly Inspection", "Safety Roster" (The user must first choose the document from this drop down he is recording)
Supervisor "First & Last Name" (The user then chooses the first & last name of the specific Supervisor name he is recording the document for from this drop down)
Manager - This field automatically populates based on Supervisor.
AOR - This field automatically populates based on Supervisor.
Org Unit - This field automatically populates based on Supervisor.
Month "January", "February", etc. (The user then chooses the Month of which the document will need to be applied to)
I would like the form to trigger an error with "This document is already recorded for this month" when the user chooses "Monthly Inspection" OR "Safety Roster" for a specific "Supervisor" for a specific "Month" that is already recorded in "TBL_DataTracker". The TBL_DataTracker is where all of my records are stored.
I am trying to put my form on the internet so that many users can access the form, that way I can keep one copy of the database and have everyone simply use the webform to edit it. I have converted my forms into webpages and all seems fine except my subforms dont show. Also, my comboboxes become text boxes. How can I stop this from happening? Once I have everything in order, how would I go about putting the forms on the internet for use? Is it possible to password protect the form, so only certain people can use it?
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks,
JetBlack
Hi,
I created the database, which shared by multi-user. But, my user have a problem to open it. When user1 open the database, user2 cannot open it, I did not remember the error message, it is said that Admin (computer name) prevent you to open the database. But, if the user1 switch another application program (the database file is still opened), user2 can open the database, then both users can access the same database file.
Why do we have this problem? How can I fix it?

I have written a html page that posts a form to a .asp page, which in turn is supposed to write data to a MS Access database. Problem is while my html page works, and my .asp page seems to work fine as well, nothing is being saved to my database!
I'm not sure if its something wrong in my .asp page...
Code:
<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="65001"%>
<% Option Explicit %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
[code]....
or if you think there may be some configuration in my database I'm missing. Just an FYI all the database table columns take empty values.
MS Access 2000 - Quite simply, on a form I have an Email field and I have the "Is Hyperlink" property set to yes. In the On-Click event of this email field I use this single line of code below to open a new outlook (2007) email with the address already entered. Staff will be entering the email address themselves as part of the clients contact details Form.
Code:
FollowHyperlink "mailto: " & [Email]
This is all fine, however access also tracks [URL] .... onto the end of the email address and tries to also open a web page which obviously fails.
Is there something somewhere I can tweak that tells access to always only treat the text in this field as an email address, and when clicked open an email?
I need some code that checks if i already opened the database. I can't use the /EXCL option because 10+ people are also using it.
I had this code when working with Acc97 but i seem to have lost it.:(
I try to open a web page with a form in access 2007. During the loading of the page it shows me 2 security error messages.
I tried to change the properties in Activex and especially the Silent property from No to Yes but this is not possible. In the next restart of the form restores the original settings.
When i open the same page with Internet Explorer it doesn't show any error. I have attached the database example to see exactly what happening.
I am writing a macro to automate the filling up some data from excel to company website. I have changed the website name in this post for data protection purpose. The excel will login for different clients by using the combination of username and password for respective clients and then some data are required to be inserted in a text box on a web page, I think the text box is on a form and form is within an iframe, within the web page. Once the data is inserted into text box, one button (Submit), which is also on the same form, is to be clicked.
On the click of a button, the updated data appears on another section, I could not make out if it is an form or frame, which is under the abovementioned form. Once we are happy with the way data appears on the web page, we have to click another button (Update), which is on the same section, to finally updating the data on website.
I wrote the following code to login to the website and then to navigate to the web page where I have to fill up the performance numbers in a text box. The first problem is how to access the text box inside the form from VBA so that the macro can write a number in that text box and how to access the button to submit the data. The HTML code, which can be seen on click of F12, is attached below. The second problem is how to access the Update button inside the other section, so that the data will be finally uploaded.
Code:
Sub LoginToCorpAccount()
Dim ie As Object
Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
[code]...
<div id="ssc-consumers-holder"/> -
This the line which gets highlighted when I click on the section where the data appears after clicking the submit button, and from here Update button is to be clicked.
Can I for instance while my db is open, open it in design mode from my form via code?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI am investigating on the possibility of setting up an approval process for our employee intake procedure by using MS Access and Outlook.
The idea is for the requester to open an intake form in Access and fill in the new employee's information and send an Outlook email to the manager for approval. I know how to trigger off an event on the form to send an email to the manager but my challenge is how to create a hyperlink in the email for the recipient to directly open the intake form with the specific record, without the need to open the database and find the specific intake form.
The intake form is built in a frontend .mde file on a shared drive where all users have access to.
In previous versions of Access (i.e 2003 and prior) I could use the following code in the On Click event of a form's command button to open an external file:
Dim stAppName As String
stAppName = "C:Program FilesCadroTransPost PlusTransPostPlus.exe"
Call Shell(stAppName, 1)
However, I'm now using Access 2013 and it wont allow me to use this anymore, it gives me the following error:
Runtime Error '5"'
Invalid procedure call or argument
Why this doesn't work in Access 2013?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI am creating a database. I have all my forms, queries, tables, reports just as I need them. However, I would like to have a command button on my switchboard that will pull from a query to feed to a Word document (that's actually a letter on my company letterhead). I know a Macro has to be involved with this, but again, I have little to no knowledge of Macros. Also, I would like to be prompted to enter a client ID number when I click on this command button (because I only want to print a letter for a new client, not all of them).
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am currently creating a database in a hierarchical system that is to be used by multiple users to enter information specific to them. The tables are arranged like this:
Owners
Modules
Tasks
Highlights
Theses are connected using primary ID's and Particular Entries in the next table so they form a hierarchy - when you expand owners it brings up a list of Modules attached to that owner, then expand each module and it brings up a list of tasks associated with that module, expand the task and it brings up a list of highlights associated with that task. This is all very straightforward of course but what I would like to do is create forms that basically match so that the users can navigate from their name, through their modules and tasks and then add highlights to each task.
For this I have been using continuous forms to list all the different entries and inserting a button in each entry that I would like to link to the next form and find the specific data, however when I try to do this the button always without fail will just return all the entries from the form rather than the specific ones requested. I set up the button using the wizard and select 'open form and find specific data' and then select two entries that are identical on each form. I have trawled the internet quite a bit to try and find why this is happening and have inserted various bits of code etc into the embedded macro in an attempt to make it work but to no avail.
I wonder if there is something I need to activate on the form that the button connects to aswel or if I need to connect these forms using the relationship that I used to connect the tables (I am still using a unique identifier).If I connect to a single form it will display the first entry on the list (and I can cycle through them all) on a continuous form it will display all entries starting with the first.I would like it to display all entries for the selected record on the form.
