Hello everybody. I have an Access application with a browse button that allows to search for files on computer. It does not work on all computers. Computer A and computer B both are running XP Pro and Office Pro 2003. Browse button works on A but throws ".. no object ..." error on B. It also works on a computer running Office 2002. Office was uninstalled [typical] and re-installed as full install on B and that did not fix the problem.
Here's my browse button code.
Private Sub cmdBrowse_Click() ' Prompts user for back-end database file name. On Error GoTo Err_cmdBrowse_Click Dim strFileName As String Dim oDialog As Object Set oDialog = Me!Xdialog.Object With oDialog ' Ask for new file location. .DialogTitle = "Please Select New Data File" .Filter = "Access Database(*.mdb;*.mda;*.mde;*.mdw)|" & _ "*.mdb; *.mda; *.mde; *.mdw|All(*.*)|*.*" .FilterIndex = 1 .ShowOpen ' If user responded, put selection into textbox on form. If Len(.FileName) > 0 Then Me![txtFileName] = .FileName End With Exit_cmdBrowse_Click: Exit Sub Err_cmdBrowse_Click: MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_cmdBrowse_Click End Sub
So, what's the difference between my A and B? Does it have to do with Activex controls?
I created an application in access 97 under win2000 Pro. Some of the forms use a calendar button. The problem is that one of the users can not use the button, when trys to open it, the calendar is blank and the following msg appears:
On a Tab Control inside a from, I've created an Unbound Object Frame, referring to an MS Excel Work Sheet. The goal here is to link that Unbound Object Frame residing on the Tab Control and save the form/link.
Now, when I execute the code, the Object Frame is linked and updated, but when I close the form, the link inside the Object Frame is not saved! However, when I do the exact same thing without placing the Object Frame on one of the pages of the tab, so as regular control inside the form, all works fine.
The code is as follows (performed when I click the button);"OLETest" refers to the UnBound Object Frame placed inside the first page of a Tab Control inside the form.
Problem: Error "There is no object in this control." needs to not come up.
Details: I have made a database with a front and back end. All the files are in a folder on our server hard drive. When the user opens the front end and the switchboard is supposed to come up I get an error that says "There is no object in this control." I do not even get that working on my computer that I made the database on. :confused:
Any thoughts or suggestions on how to fix this. I know it is something simple but I am not sure where to even look to fix this problem.
When I attempt to create a new DB - by performing Blank Database I immediately get a message 'Object Library not registered'.
If I 'OK' that box and try to create a table, I can do so - create Table in design view.
When I then try to Import external data - an excel file I get the message 'ActiveX component Can't create object'.
I have looked ob various sites for help and forum information regarding these errors but have found nothing conclusive, with specidfic regard to Access 2003.
The version has been loaded on my machine about 1 year as part pf Office Professional but this is the first time I have attempted to run Access itself.
Does any forum member have any ideas as to how this problem could be resolved.
I am currently building a database for the company I work for that is fairly similar to the Northwind Database; however it is made from scratch so hopefully some of the common problems with that database won't find their way into mine.My problem is that when I go to my Orders form, I pick a customer from the main form, which creates a record on the Orders table. When I then go to the subform to choose a product/line item, I get the error in my title ("The LinkMasterFields property setting has produced this error: 'The object doesn't contain the Automation object 'OrdersT.") as soon as a product is chosen from the drop down list.
I'm getting an error message (informational only):
The object doesn't contain the automation object 'ClientID.'You tried to run a visual basic procedure to set a property or method for an object. However, the component doesn't make the property or method available for Automation operations.
Check the components documentation for information on the properties and methods it makes available for automation operations. This happens when I start entering data in the field "productname" of a subform.
So I'm assuming something in the form or in the code of the form is referring to ClientID. but I've checked it, and there is nothing referring to it anymore. Well, at least as far as I'm aware of.
This afternoon access crashed without any error, it just closed. Upon reopening the DB again, all my work of the past one and a half week was gone. Normally I always backup the data, but these past days I didn't due to christmas and still working a lot too. So I forgot.
I did some redesigning in the process this evening, deleting and adding some fields and code.
I can't get rid of this error. Can anyone help? Or point me in the right direction?
Also the DB is 3.5MB in size. While it is completely empty. And I can't imagine that some empty tables, queries, forms and a bit of code can be so much. But that's for a later time to worry about I guess, unless one of you says: this and that, maybe that works... Otherwise, I would really be very glad already if the error disappears....
I am creating an form in a database and whenever one of my procedure's run it creates this error message:
The expression ON Load you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Member already exists in an object module from which this object module derives.
*The expression may not result in the name of a macro, the name of a user-defined function, or [event Procedure]. *There may have been an error evaluating the function, event, or macro.
I added a new field to one of my tables and query, but when I try to add a control for that field into my form it is not recognising it and the field isn't appearing in the sources for the form, even though the table is sourced to the form? Or am I going to have to do the usual and redo the entire form because I made a minor adjustment?
I have a form with a tab control, inside the tab control I placed an ActiveX control (Microsoft Web Browser). These are at the bottom of the form.
Everything displays fine if the entire form fit on the screen but if the form is too long and I scroll down the browser control is getting obscured by the tab control and getting chopped off (the contents are covered). It is as if the browser control is staying in space where it was and moving behind the tab control as I scroll.
This problem does not occur if I place the browser control directly on the form. Also I note that the browser control is sitting correctly within the tab control.
I have been through all the settings and properties of both controls and haven't been able to fix it. I searched all over the web but no one has previously stumbled across this one by the look of it.
I have table that I had to add a new field to which we update with a form. I tried to add a control for the new field but the field does not show up in the list for the control source. I am trying to add a list box to the form with a blank and 5 options.
I have attached screen shots of the table design and the form. The table has the field in datasheet view and I have manually entered a few entries in it but it still will not show in the control source for the form control. The top section of the form is where we enter and select the data for the new records. The bottom section (circled in red) autofills the matching record, from separate tables, for updating with the new entries.
I have added form controls for modified fields in the past so I am confused about why this is happening.
OK. I have searched and searched and every thread dances around similar situations but none seem to address this particular one. I am trying to make a control on a sub form visible/not visible depending on the condition of a control on a main form. The catch is that the control I'm trying to change the state of is on a subform located in a tab control. I've tried a thousand combinations and none seem to work. How do I reference the control on the subform in a tab control?
Main Form: frmMemberMain Tab Control: TabCtl12 Tab Control Page: 2 Subform: frmChildren Control on subform: txtRelationship
Can someone please help before my brain explodes!! Thanks! :eek:
table1 = 21 records table2 = 21 records table3 = 441 records
ex 1. (table1+table2)=(table3) ex 2. (table1+table2)and(table1+table2)makes(table3)
as confusing as that sounds it gets worse I want to find a way to do a true or false expression for the bottom formula. There are nearly 195,000 possible combinations for ex 2, so you can see that after a short time you will find yourself doing repeats if you do not have something in place to tell you that you have done this combination before.
So, is there a way to have a msg box come up saying "Ooops, you have already tried this combination before"??

Is there a way to tie a send object to a combo box on a form? I know I can write a query to pull information from a selection in a combo box using the [form][formname]thing. What I'm trying to do is I've created a database that allows many users to enter a request in a form. then when the form is complete they need to E-mail the form to their respective manager. I want them to choose from a combo box, then click on a button and the form is e-mailed to their manager for approval. I've gotten everything else to work accept for being able to choose the manager. I know I could also leave that blank and it will ask for them to enter the recipients name. If that's my only option I'm ok with that.
Thanks
PS If this issue has already been addressed I couldn't find it.
I have an Access2003 database that contains a table. The table has 2 fields. One is a counter and the other stores a picture which is datatype ole object. I want to do a one time export of the pictures. I want to save the pictures as jpegs in a designated directory. I know very little about working with ole object datatypes. Can someone tell me the easiest way to do this?
I've downloaded a database which creates cascading combo boxes; it's called CreateCascadeCombo, for which I am grateful to whoever took the trouble to create it.
However, after it has done it's work and vreates the form in my own datbase, it says to make sure the latest DAO Object library must exist in the same database. How do I ensure that is is? I'm using access 2003.
I have created a database with Access 2007 and would like to remove some tables and reports that do not work as I had planned. I have tried to select them from the navigation pane and use the right click menu, however the delete option is grayed out. Thanks Jim
Is there a way I can print something that will tell what each table and/or query is dependent on and what depends on each one? I don't mean relationships, just the dependencies. I'm trying to clean up a database but it was built before I started and I use some of the prebuilt stuff and don't want to delete anything I need, but the query and table lists are excrutiatingly long. :(
I have a form based on a calculated query. To allow users to edit some of the non-calculated fields I change the form's recordsource to a non-calculated query, but I still get "Database or object is read only".
I tried putting "msgbox currentdb.udateable" just after where I change the recordsource and I get the message "True" so db should not be in read only state...
If I open the form with the non-calculated query as source to start with, I can update the fields just fine.
What do I need to add to my code after Form_frmMyform.RecordSource="qryWriteable" to allow writing to the recordset?
I'm trying to force a user to enter text into a field. To this end, I've created a subroutine for the exit method of the text box they are supposed to fill out. I check to see if the .text property is null, and if so create a message box that pops up a notification telling the user they need to fill in said field. After that, I try to use the Me.txtReason.SetFocus (the text box is called txtReason) to return the focus to that text box, but instead it moves on to the next text box. Is there a way I can prevent the user from leaving the text box until they've entered some sort of data into it?
I have a form with a subform. When i click a button on the "main" form i'm able to change the source object of the subform. But the subform now shows the records which are already present i want the subform to start with a new record.
