Trying to get google maps to display on a form.
When it loads google maps webpage it goes straight to a page that says the following.
"You seem to be using an unsupported browser. Old browsers can put your security at risk, are slow and don't work with newer Google Maps features. To access Google Maps, you'll need to update to a modern browser".
The table I created keeps track of several addresses and I use a report to print them into a booklet. I'd like to include a small map in the printed booklet for each group or one map showing all the addresses in the booklet but I am not sure if there is a simple way for Access and Google Maps to communicate. Anyone have experience in this area? Thanks in advance.

I have 2 forms - one collects postcodes from the user the other displays the results on google maps. This has worked ok on MS explorer but when I try to use this on my laptop i get "Script error on the Goolge map" I have attached a screen shot and the code.
Private Sub GoogleMaps_Click()
DoCmd.Hourglass (True)
'I'm not allowed to post links so have added spaces in the next line...
MyGoogleMapURL = "http : / / maps . google . com / maps ? q = from : "
MyGoogleMapURL = MyGoogleMapURL & Me.[ClientPickupList].Column(2, Goog1)
[Code] .....
We have a form with the web browser control which links to Google maps and jumps to that location on the map by the lat and long and updates as you jump to each record. (The control is on a form and is only used there) The map itself works however i get a script error every time i jump to the next record....
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create an automated way of making a way to contact our personnel in case phones cannot be used. I have a list of all the address and currently separated by cities. I want to step it up a bit and with the use of google maps create a shortest route map. So one representative from one city will go to each house, another will go to the other cities to another rep, who then goes to each house in their city.
I would need a map for one person to each of the other reps.
And a map for the reps to drive the shortest route yet hitting all targets.
Is this within the scope of Access and Google Maps? I've looked at some of the database made by others on here but none of them show ability to find shortest route.
I want to access my database from different locations. More than 1 user may be using it at the same time.
Can I put the back-end of a split database in a Google Drive folder or a Dropbox folder and have multiple copies of the front-end for each user in their own location.
I know that Dropbox creates copies if two people update the backend at the same time. What about Google Drive? How does Google Drive handle it.
What are the potential problems of using these two services to share a database?

View 1 Replies View RelatedFrom access I'm calling a code in excel. My code in excel pops up a browser that allows the user to select what files they'd like to import. For various reasons I have to import data through excel, not directly to Access which is why the browser appears in excel instead of access. Essentially the user will select a word file which is imported into access through excel.
I'd like this browser to appear in access instead of excel though. If I move my browser from excel to access is there any way to have my code in excel reference the file selected in access? Or is there some way for this browser to appear without the user having to select the excel icon in the task bar? I essentially want the user to only see and interact with access, but because my browser is in excel this isn't possible right now.
Below is the code I'm using to try and view the microsoft page in my Access Form, but its not working for me.
I searched for the name of the Web Browser by inserting it into Excel and reading the name from the Excel NameBox. Is the another way of confirming the name of the Web Browser?
Private Sub Form_Load()
Me!WebBrowser1.Navigate "http://www.microsoft.com"
End Sub
If I have the correct name of the Web Browser does anyone have any ideas how I can troubleshoot this problem?
Currently, I use two browsers (Avant and IE)

Hi, Im trying to make a google like search query on my database so a user can type in one word and then the database will search for all the records which contain this word and display them.
Any ideas?? I only want it to search through the one table,
Im no expert on VB so if someone could translate it into basic english that would be good.
Cheers
Did you know that you can use Google to search the Access Forum and get a more refined result?
I find that the search facility provided is excellent at searching for single words. However it does not provide the sophistication of tools like Google for searching for exact phrases.
To get this sophistication do this:
Open Googles advanced page: (http://www.google.co.uk/advanced_search?hl=en)
The first section of this page is shaded blue, and contains the following items:
with all of the words
with the exact phrase
with at least one of the words
without the words
You can add words to varying degrees of sophistication for your search.
This is the important bit!
Just below this blue shaded area there is another section, go to the fifth item down in this section which is:"Domain" also make sure "Only" is selected. In the next text box (to the right of Only) place the domain you want to search in, this case you want to search the Access Forum so place in this box the following:
http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums
Now give it a try! Try searching for: "Date Selection" (without the Quotes)
If you search for this with the above Google method, you will get 90 results, If you search this result with the Forum search then you will get over 300 results.
Caveats:
Your search will only return items within the access-programmers site, and only items that are allowed to be indexed by Google.

I want to show ( or print ) on a report a specific URL on Google Maps with the ActiveX control "Microsoft Web Browser".
I managed to use the Google API on a form to show the actual URL found with X and Y coordinates.
Now I'd like to show the same URL on a report to send to the customer as a reference. Is there a way to get this done?
I already put a ActiveX control (Ms Web Browser) on a report and used the same URLstring in the ActiveX control , but nothing is shown on the screen.
I have made a form on access which will be used by other employees within the company, however they have never used access before and they are wanting to access only just the form as I feel with Access and all the tools in the background will confuse them, plus I don't want them editing the data base its self.
Is there a way to only bring up the form, unless I obviously need to edit the date base.
I've done some research on Google and it seems I need to use:
SW_SHOWMINNOACTIVE
However I can not seem to find how I would use this or where?
and also if i did find a way to only bring up the form, how would I be able to switch it from that veiw to the veiw I edit in?
Hi Folks -
I'm really close at getting what I need done, I just have a small bug.
I have a form with a web browser control in Access 2003.
One text box on the form is for an address.
One text box on the form is for the street.
A command button on the form navigates to a website where I am trying to input the values of the text boxes into the text boxes on the web page.
The following code:
Me.WebBrowser0.Document.All("EnteredAddrNmbr").focus
Me.WebBrowser0.Document.All("EnteredAddrNmbr").Value = txtaddr
Me.WebBrowser0.Document.All("EnteredStreetName").focus
Me.WebBrowser0.Document.All("EnteredStreetName").Value = txtStreet
Me.WebBrowser0.Document.All("GetPrecinct").focus
Me.WebBrowser0.Document.All("GetPrecinct").Click
This works - but FIRST I get an error 91 on the first line here stating that the Object variable or With block variable is not set. It lets me debug the code as it's running, showing me the highlighted first line in error. I then click the Continue button in the code window and all the rest of the code executes fine.
How do I get past that first error? And why is it letting me continue afterwards without addressing the error?
If I do a On Error Resume Next, it doesn't fill the boxes with data or issue the Click event command.
Thanks for your help in advance!!

Hi Access World Community,
Im fairly new to vba and was wondering how I can refer to a username field and login field on a website that is within my Microsoft Web browser control.
I have some code below but it is giving me error91 Object vairable or With Block variable not set.
Private Sub Combo2_AfterUpdate()
Me.WebBrowser1.Navigate URL:=Me.Combo2.Text
Me.WebBrowser1.Document.Username.Value = "tester"
End Sub
It navigates to the site fine so it is narrowed down to {Me.WebBrowser1.Document.Username.Value} being the problem.
P.S. The website is https://www.taylorbeandirect.com/default.aspx
I would like to edit a MS Database structure from a Web Browser using ASP. What I mean is I would like to be able to add more columns to a database table or delete or rename...Not the data that is already in the columns... Is this possible? If so can some one please point me in the right direction. I've searched these forums and have not been able to find the answer.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have developed an access database whereby multi users are using via front end application. I have split the database into back end and front end.
Problem is each time i make a change to the front end, I have to go to each pc to update. Apart from this, any other programmer can easily see all my workings and can copy my database.
I want an option whereby when i make any changes to the front end, then the user will get the change upon the next login. I was thinking of using the front end over the local intranet web browser. will have one front end and all users will be connected to that. any changes i make will be on that front end and they will see the change upon next login.
My other problem is that I do not want the front end to be stored at the user's end as any programmer can access my tables, forms, queries, reports, macros even if i disabled the navigation option.
I am trying to create a database such that everyone in my company will be able to access it, but without having to install access and put a link to the DB on every computer. Ideally, I would like to have some sort of web applet that uses the DB on a central server and allows users to add and modify entries without having to know anything about Access.
Any help would be appreciated
I'm trying to use the Access 2010 web browser control to dynamically show a PDF.
The base file path is a constant (R:MS_ACCESS_PROJECTSSAFETYIMAGESMSDS SHEETS)
and the dynamic part is two fields from the selected record:
me.txtMsdsID & "." & me.txtVersion
what is the simplest way to "bind" this so that when a record changes it automatically refreshes this control? I've tried setting it with VBA, but it's not working consistently.
I know the issues isn't the file path, as it works fine if I paste it in windows explorer.
