how I can replace the MS Access icon in the windows 7 taskbar at the bottom of my screen with my customized one. I already added under the access options the form and report icon and was hoping that this may solve the issue. But my own icon just pops up on the title bar of the main access screen, forms and the reports.
View RepliesHey guys,
We are running a mdb access file that spawns different 'windows' or forms if you will. We've had a request from a staff member that they be opened in different taskbar instances in windows xp. It does in windows 2k, however.
The only way of swapping forms at the moment is to click "Window" and then the form name.
Any idea's guys?
Hi there,
Is there a way to hide the application title bar (including the min, max and close buttons) as well as the windows taskbar when Access is running? I have seen this done before where the form fills the entire screen - ie no controls or frames are visible.
Does anyone have any suggestions????
Thanks,
Glenn
hi all,
this morning i installed the ms access 2000 runtime and then i uninstalled it.
After that i had some problems and there was no other choice than uninstall and install the office 97.
Now for some reason the access 97 works BUT the mdb files have a notepad icon instead the access 97 icon.
however, if i see the icon's properties under OPEN WITH the icon is the correct one.
can u hlp me?
thx in advance, 4 your time, max.

Hi,
I created an icon for my database application and I would like to display it in each form's title bar. Is this possible? And if it is, how? A few years ago I learned a little Delphi programming, and there this is possible to do.
Thanx!

I am using the attachment field in my form in Access 2010. I downloaded a picture (a picture of paper clip) from the web to use it as the display image for the attachment field. When using the form, the paper clip picture is displayed so long as there is no attachment. When a file is attached, the display image changes to the type of file (in my case pdf). However, I want Access to display the paper clip icon.

So basically, like already but without the taskbar tabs.

I have searched the forums but all I can find is code to hide the windows taskbar, when actually I want the opposite.
I have a form which I have set the following properties:
Pop-up = Yes
Modal = No
Control Box = Yes (Only while designing, will change)
Max/Min = None
I have also placed code in the On Load event namely "DoCmd.Maximize"
When the form loads, it maximises as I would like but it also covers the windows taskbar, which is something I don't think my users would like at all!!! Any idea how to get it to still maximise ( as this hides the db windows) but not hide the taskbar?
Hi,
I have a form with command buttons on it (a menu) but I want the form to be full screen without hiding the taskbar. I can get the form to fill the screen with no problems, its just a matter of having the taskbar available to multi-task!!!
Also, is it possible to have a few forms open at once with each form appearing on the taskbar
i.e. START | Microsoft Access | Form 1 | Form 2
Thanks in advance!!!

I have this working query:
Code:
INSERT INTO TB_SISTEMAS ( LOGIN, SISTEMA, PERFIL, DATA )
SELECT Left([dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.LOGIN],255) AS LOGIN, dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.SISTEMA, Left([dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.PERFIL],255) AS PERFIL, dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.DATA
FROM dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS
WHERE (((dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.SISTEMA)<>"ACTIVE DIRECTORY") AND ((dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.DATA)="2014-03-23"));
But Iwant to be able to use a set of data to be used in the Replace Statement, so I create a table to add each string I would like to have replaced by "nothing", and trying to make the replace query to look there in order to find what to replace.I also created a table where I will list the systems that I dont want in the select, so I removed the "ACTIVE DIRECTORY" and replaced by the colum that have the list of system I dont want listed.This is the result:
Code:
INSERT INTO TB_SISTEMAS ( LOGIN, SISTEMA, PERFIL, DATA )
SELECT Replace((Left([dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.LOGIN],255)),[PREFIXOS_E_SUFIXOS]![Valor],"") AS LOGIN, dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.SISTEMA, Left([dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.PERFIL],255) AS PERFIL, dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.DATA
FROM dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS
WHERE (((dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.SISTEMA)<>[SISTEMAS_EXCLUIDOS]![Sistema]) AND ((dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.DATA)="2014-03-23"));
The thin is that this keeps asking me to enter the parameter value for "PREFIXOS_E_SUFIXOS!Valor" and for "SISTEMAS_EXCLUIDOS!Sistema"
I have a continuous subform which queries a table of attachments. I'm using Access 2007 but not using the Attachment datatype; this DB will grow considerably and I don't want to waste precious space by filling it with bulky files. So instead, I have code which makes a copy of the attachment and adds the hyperlink (to the copy) to the table instead.
Now - I want to add a control to the subform to display an icon / image reflecting the file type of the attachment (Word doc, Excel s/s, PDF etc.)
But not sure how to go about it.
I was thinking I could use FileSystemObject.GetFileExtension at the point in the code where the attachment is added, and add a new field to my attachments table (i.e. translate "*.xls*" to "Excel", etc.) Then store / embed a handful of images for the core types I would expect and use an image control on the subform to display the image based on the value of that field.
But is that even possible / feasible?
Or, is there a handy API which can retrieve the icon associated with a file type based on what has been installed on the local machine (even if there is, there's still the problem of setting up the image control to display the appropriate icon specific to each record...)
Or, is there another control available which would be better suited to something like this than an Image control?

I have a report that filters members by their type. On the form there is a field that shows the member's class they are assigned to, but currently it shows the class ID and I want it to show the actual class name. How do I make the report show the actual name instead of the class ID?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a form ("Contacts Form") that I use with a few subforms on it. One of the subforms is "sbfrmCompanys" that has information on the contacts company. One of the fields in sbfrmCompanys is "Organization." Users used to be able to use the "find" feature to search for an organization's record, however the "find" feature suddenly stopped working. Now, when a user searches for an organization that I KNOW is in the company table, a dialogue box appears that says Access has finished searching and no records were retrieved. This cannot be so because I know for a fact the particular value I am searching for is in the table.
View 7 Replies View RelatedIm trying to concatenate a bunch of fields (50 arghh) which each are either blank or just contain one letter. This was someone elses setup for an attendance register which I think is an odd way of doing it. I would have used one field and then to get the mark for a week take a substring at the appropriate position. Anyway im trying to replace an empty string field with a letter to represent the register hasn't been marked using sql statement:
SELECT [400 Student Marks].acad_period, [400 Student Marks].student_id, [400 Student Marks].register_id, [400 Student Marks].register_group, Replace([1],"","U") AS attendance
FROM [400 Student Marks];
[1] being the first register week then I would have concatenated with [2] etc...
This however causes an error each time on the attendance field so im guessing replace doesn't work on empty strings. Is there a way round this/alternative.
Thanks for any advice.
I have a form with a navigational control which loads in the unbound area a form according to the navigational btn, this form has a list of records in datasheet view, when clicking on a specific records it opens a form with the specific record selected, I would, once double clicked on the record, the form to open within the same unbound window.
To be more precise, from the attachment, when the frmMain is open and the user double clicks on the IATACode the navigation target under the Tab Airport closes the form "frmQueryAirport" and opens "frmAirport", once the user closes the window with the appropriate Exit Btn, the "frmQueryAirport" reopens.
I have been given a project from work and although I have built multiple databases before, for some reason this one is stumping me. I need to create a database to capture data which was previously being captured on multiple spreadsheets to simplify the statistics program at my company. Each spreadsheet captured key pieces of information, I've attached an example of each. Each sheet needs to be set up so that an individual can enter their information for their location and that one person (me) can enter the full company information. For example the hours form, from this form I need to capture the employee count and manhours, whereas from the district sheet I need to capture contractor hours, vehicle data (second tab), and performance data on a monthly basis. The final entry needs to be able to enter all of the counts on the counts link form in order to create a table similar to the link form.
