View RepliesIs it possible to follow a hyperlink to a file without using a file extension?
I have links being created based on the name of a file, but because I haven't used a file extension it crashes.
I know I can give the user a choice of what the file extension is and add it to the hyperlink, but it's an extra step, and another place for someone to make a mistake.
I'm potentially using 3 different file types, Word, Excel and PDF's.
The hyperlink works if I just reference a drive/folder, or if I add the file extension.
I have an old program with ade file extension and I would like to add some filters in one of the forms but I don't have design view or layout view option.

I have just solved one problem concerning creating hyperlinks based on values in other fields: See Previous Thread (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=124590)
but now I have another, the hyperlink I have created links to a document, while for the majority of time it is a word document it is not always, occasionally .xls or .pdf
So I need a way of building into the hyperlink code the file extension, my thoughts are it would involve check boxes and if statements (one check box for each) but I am unsure of how to do this, can anyone help?
My code is currently:
Private Sub H_Enter()
Form!H = "hyperlink#C:Documents and Settingscew1My DocumentsWORKSpecs" & Form!S & Form!PC & ".doc#"
End Sub
Hello. I have a mdb access file. When I open it, I can see lots of tables. How on earth do I open a form? Do I need another file, if so, what extension should I look for on my computer?? I really dont want to create a new form, since a person who did it has told me that its all have been already done. I just need to open the form and enter the data in. Thanks for any help!!!:)

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a production application in which i have a table named daily_production with fields as ( prod_id, date, productname, qty ). Now I want a daily production query as
date : xx-xx-xxxx
productname | qty | monthlysum(for thsi product) | daily average |
I want this on a single query so that i can make a report out of this .
I need to make a report that shows a work schedule for 10 employees. I need it to print in a monthyly calendar format with horizontal lines to show start and end date and time. I need it to show that there is or is not any overlap for that machine."
It has been a while since I have created a DB and I get some of this okay. So far I think I need three tables. One is the machines. Two is the product schedule (how long it takes to produce X number of products). The last would be work orders and that pretty much covers the data.
I think most of the data can be maniputated by queries and that is even done on the report. The report as we all know is the reason for a database. If it was just about the data it would be simpler to do a spreadsheet. It could get fancy and make a pivot table. That output can be a calendar of sorts.
I often create contract using mail merge. I have an access file that I want to use as data source for word file. But it does not automatically.
Please download the attached file !
If there are 1 customer and 1 property, I do not need to do anything. Conversely, if there are many customers and many properties, I take time to manipulate.
Firstly, I open the word file. I have to copy and paste paragraphs that I want. Highlight of the original paragraphs is blue.
Secondly, I click 'Insert Word Field' -> select 'Next Record'.
In short, I wish to use VBA in access file to automatically perform the steps that I have outlined.
Greeting All,
I am trying the beta version of Access 2007 and realize that when converting Access 97 to Access 2007, the new db in Access 2007 has an extension of .accdb. I rename the db file name to xxxxx.mdb and the VB app fails to recognize it.
Is there any way to convert the xxxx.accdb (Access 2007 beta) to xxxx.mdb so that I can try my app against the Access 2007 db?????
Thank you for your time,
ConKi
Hello friends.

Thank :) :)
how could I store files such as PDF inside MS access.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a large .dat file which is run through an Access macro to produce reports. After a recent system change at work the format of the .dat has changed and now includes an additional bit of data which disrupts the macro.
I tried changing the extension of the file from dat to mdb to see if I could remove the additional column in access. I also tried changing it to a csv file as well but the file has a few hundred thousand lines and the csv file cuts most of it out.
Are there any other ways I can open this file in Access to remove this additional column of data?
Any issues with using Access 2010 to edit an mdb file..I know there are backward incompatibility issues with 2007 and 2010, but these are both accdb formats.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI use below simple command line to start a macro in my Access database. Usually all works well. I start my bat file, command is executed and macro does its job.
However it always fails if I have a session of Access already opened even if it is a completely different database. If I use below then it opens another sessions of Access but does not execute the macro. I need to go into the second session and run macro manually. It works fine then.
Code:
"C:UsersMeDocumentsDatabas1.accdb" /X Macro
I have 3 sets of MS Access File (NEDA, RDC,& Summid) built with the same sets of structures. Originally at MS Access 2007, but now I'm using the built in 2010 version for Lenovo Flex 2.The table consist of:
*Chart of Accounts
*Journal Entry Voucher Master File
*Journal Entry Number Master File
*Supplier Master File
Queries are the same (links, designed, etc...)
Forms are also the same (links, designed, etc...)
Reports are also the same (links, designed, etc...)
The difference for these three file is the Journal Entry Number because each file requires a different JEV format...Example:
-For NEDA it should be NEDA-Year-Month-Number Series
-For RDC it should be RDC-Year-Month-Number Seried
Laslty for summid it should be Summid-Year-month-Number Series and separate transaction listing for the purpose of calling data for the report, such as List of disbursements and trial balance.But for these three MS Access file, Chart of Accounts and Supplier Master File do have the same set of data. That's why whenever a data is not available I am encoding the said information in each MS Access file (inputting the data three times).Example:If an asset account such as Office Supplies is not available, I will input in the Chart of Account Form for NEDA, then RDC, then Summid.
Question
Is there a way where I can unified the Chart of Accounts and Supplier Master File into one but still can entry/edit the same in each MS Access forms. Also can still link to each queries, tables,and reports?So that I will encode data one time only and save space.
I was successfully using a front end and back end setup for the past two years. Today I needed to push through some changes and "deactivate" the previous back end database and setup a new back end database. The new back end database has been sent; however the front end is not recognizing the back end database anymore. I need to re-link the existing front end to the back end database - I cannot import the front end into a "fresh" file because I put a password on the VBA Editor.
View 14 Replies View RelatedIs it possible (using the menu or VBA code) to find out the size of the objects in an Access database file?For example if the .accdb file is 300Mb, is there any way of comparing the size of the numerous tables/forms/reports/queries etc, that make up the database?(I know that if I created a new access file and imported the objects from the working database that could give an indication but that would be quite a repetitive process).

View 8 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to open an Access Database from a batch file or VBS file wait for 20 seconds and then close the Access file. Preferably I would like the Access file to run in either invisible or minimized mode. I would like the Access Database to close again after the 20 seconds has elapsed.
(The reason for this is so that the Database can refresh itself from Sharepoint on another users machine so that the excel reports on his machine are up to date).

I want to deploy an access database at a small office with 5 computers, small network. However I do not intend to create a server in order to have a domain etc. Operating system is win 8.1 pro. Should I use a homegroup or workgroup ? Would it require password in case of workgroup? Which is a recommended way to setup this and keep some security like a guest cant access these files?
