Hi all,
I was wondering if it is possible to use a splash screen in the middle of your program? Ex. Can I have a splash screeen to display at the beginning of my database and then have another splash screen open during my program. If i click on a command button to display a form, cause I have a splash screen appear before that form load?
Is till possible while using Data Access Pages as well?
thanks in advance

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?
John

I have just created a splash screen for my database.
I was wondering if anyone knows anything else that is good to add to this form which would make it look pretty impressive?
I would like to add a loading bar (Similar to the one that appears at the bottom the page on internet explorer). Does anyone know if this is possible? If so how do you do it?

I've done some searching here, but don't see exactly what I am looking for. I am wanting to attach some code to the timer on a slash screen, or on the close event, to fade the splash screen out. I have looked at the "Cadice Tripp" site. It's fine, but not a fade out. What I want is a simple fade in.... fade out, on the splash screen. Anyone seen any code for this?
Thanks

I would like to have an animated opening screen when the database opens with the autoexec.
I have an animation package called Xara that makes some wonderful 3d animations. I would like to use this in an Access form. Is this possible? Animated GIF or Flash?
If the answer is no, can I call another application to show the animation?
Thanks in Advance - John

I want a progress bar in a form that will increase from bottom to top . The data will from Access table. The bar will start from 0 to Maxvalue. The Maxvalue will be calculated as below:
Total number of batches in the table/ No. of working days between 14072014 and 31112014 / 2
So the above calculation will define the range of a progress indicator.
And now we have to show the % percentage that means how many batches have been scanned for today. For this the following calculations will be used:
Count total batches where scandate=today and scannedby<>null
Now this will show the percentage in the bar that means hopw much work has been completed.
The progress bar should move from bottom to top when % increases.

I have on very large form in my db that takes several seconds to load. I want to optimize things, so I am trying to have it load hidden in the background when the db first starts up, this way it can be immediately called on when it is needed later. Please read further :
I want to have a splash screen that loads as well. I have set the splash screen to the default form when the database opens. However, I am not quite sure how to get the other form to load in the background as hidden, AFTER the splash screen opens and appears. I tried calling it with the oncurrent event of the splash screen, but then splash screen wont appear until after the other (hidden) form has finished loading. I have tried different orders of events, but am having no luck getting the desired results.
Summary: I want the splash screen to show first, then the big form to open (hidden) in the background. The user can click on a continue button on the splash screen and then the main switchboard will open.

All access application is realized as MDI container. (if I'm right)
In this case it is possible to set the MDI object background image instead develop splash screen. This picture always in background form open another forms or reports, does not depend on the screen resolution, etc, etc ... Splash screen must be removed in order to realize the other forms or reports.
How to set Access 2013 application backgroundimage, and backgroundImageLayout?

Hello all,
I have this splash screen, which welcomes all the users. It has an OK command button that exits the screen, and a checkbox that says "Do not show this screen again". I still do not have the code behind the checkbox. Thus I was wondering if there is a way where I could entirelly close or "get rid" of the splash screen until the user loggs in again. Because right now there is no code behind it, so everybody that checks it and click OK, leaves the screen. But they can still open it, if they select the "splash form".

I am creating a database for creating quotations. The quotation number is generated using the date, for example the first quote today would be quote number "05202015-1" because it is the first one today. The next quote today would be quote number "05202015-2" and so on. Is there a way to make access automatically generate these quote numbers based on the date?

I have a module in my database that creates an appointment based on a table of sessions. The module works in all respects, except two:
1) When I declare optional attendees it sometimes shows them as required attendees in the actual meeting in outlook, but not always
2) The .Send method does not seem to work. It creates the appointment on my calendar as the originator of the appointment, but does not send to the other recipients.
Below is the code:
Code:
Private Sub SchedOutlook()
Dim rsEmployee As DAO.Recordset
Set rsEmployee = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Select * FROM Employee INNER JOIN tblSession ON Employee.EmpID = tblSession.EmpID;", dbOpenDynaset)
Dim rsMentor As DAO.Recordset
[Code] ....

is there a way to create a profile on each person on my database, to show their contact details and whether they've made a purchase from me before, or must I literally just make a table entering each individual person and purchase?
My boss (in another job) showed me very quickly an extremely old database one of his old employees had made for him years ago containing all of his clients, each shown individually, and he was able to click through each one, and each window showed the client's name, contact details, personal details, etc. and he just had hundreds of entries for all of his clients and was able to scan through each individual one. I am 99% sure he said it was on Microsoft Access that he'd done it.I just want to monitor how many of mailing list subscribers have also made purchases and whatnot, as I do rewards for them, and it'll be much easier to view each person's profile and the orders they've made than have to scan through a table to find each separate order?

I am looking to create something called a "transactional" database that tracks historical information.I want to track and keep a record of employees at my organization who have had disciplinary action. We currently have a 5 step approach leading to termination.Eg. Step 1: receive Letter #1 Step 2: receive letter #2 + manager meeting step 3: receive letter 3 + manager and director meeting, etc etc.
I believe this is transactional because for each employee, we would need to see when they received the letter in the past, and an employee may receive two or three "step 1 letter 1" notices due to whatever circumstance.I stumbled upon this database and I found the bottom part where you Add/Edit Employee is what I am looking to do...except I can't Design view or anything to see how all this cool stuff is done! The link is: access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=154187
Essentially, I want to create a user friendly database like the link above where a clerk/admin assistant can open Access, search for an employee by name or department or manager, and then be prompted to add information such as Letter #2 delivered, manager meeting occured, employee signature, etc.

I've got an Access 2010 application that currently links to a SQL Server 2000 database. I need to change the link to a SQL Server 2008 database on a different server. Where do I go to change the link? When I click on External Data, ODBC Database, I only get an option to import source data. I don't want to import any data. I just want the application to link to a different external database. If I go ahead and click OK, I choose my ODBC connection and log in to the 2008 database. Now I've got a list of "import objects" to choose from. I choose one table (just for testing; I actually want to link with all tables), it says it imported successfully, but when I view the data in that table from Access, it's the same old 2000 database data.

I am trying to create a Special Recorded tracking database where a member of staff will log the tracker number into the database and then at a later date someone can come and update the data, what I want to do is scan the tracker barcode with a scan gun and its details appear for updating, I can do this part but when I make any amendments to the data it doesn't save the new data and I don't know why? I am using a combobox to display the tracker number and me.text1.value = me.combo4.column(1) and so on and so forth to display the data, when I change this data it doesn't save.

I would like to Create a database for indexing / organizing PDF documents. My Company currently use a 3rd party accounts program and we raise sales and purchases using numerical numbers ( but we can Jump to a new range of numbers within the program) for example if the purchase order numbers become simliar to the sales order numbers. But this 3rd party software does not let us scan documents into it hence the need for an alternative database.
For the data base I was thinking if only creating a index of the sales order numbers to start with. the first few question I have are.
1.) Should I Use the Autonumber as my first index column or should I replace it with our own sales order numbers in that column.
2.) is there a way to autopopulate the sales order numbers in a table for historical sales numbers.
3.) can you scan directly into Access
How to start planning the design off the database as I know this is almost the most important aspect of a database.
