Help With A Close Database Command
Nov 17, 2005
Can someone help? I would like to insert a button/command onto one of my forms to close the entire database that is open, but without exiting Access. I have another database that has an Exit button on the switchboard that does this operation, but I cannot seem to find the 'procedure'/VBA anywhere on how to make this operation work. I know how to insert a command button/text box etc, but don't know which one I should use (if any) or if I need to write up a VBA command to do this. Can someone give me some step-by-step ideas? Thanks

Is there a command line argument to open AND close a db? I am running a schedule task to open a db which has an autoexec macro but I don't want the db to stay open after running the macro. Or is there a close db function in a macro? I see close form but not db.

Am working with Access 2007. I have built a macro that opens several make table queries and exports the tables to excel spreadsheets. Macro functions properly, however the query results still show in the access database screen. What macro command can I use to close these screens after the action is done? I use the CLOSE command for each query but the results still show in the Access window.

I am using code in Access to run a merge in Word. I'll call the database containing the function (MergeWord) that runs the merge Database1. The table used in the merge is in a different database. I'll call the database that contains the table Database2. When the merge is run, another instance of Access is automatically opened with Database2 open. How do I close the second instance of Access (Database2)?
Here's my code so far:
Function MergeWord()
Dim ObjWord As Word.Document
Set ObjWord = GetObject("H:SHAREDFORMSTest.doc", "Word.document")
ObjWord.Application.Visible = True
ObjWord.MailMerge.OpenDataSource NAME:="H:AccessDatabase2.mdb", Linktosource:=True, Connection:="TABLE NewFileExport"
ObjWord.MailMerge.Destination = wdSendToNewDocument
ObjWord.MailMerge.Execute
ObjWord.Application.NormalTemplate.Saved = True
ObjWord.Activate
ObjWord.Close False
Set ObjWord = Nothing
Exit Function
End Function

Hi Guys,
I have a database that uses a switchboard with a close button that runs several instructions before it exits. The problem is that some users have access to the database window and I need to prevent them from closing the database by hitting the X in the upper right.
Anyone know how to do this?

Hi All,
Is there a way to disable the Access Min Max Close buttons like you can on forms?
I need to have people use a "Close Application" button (there is code behind it)
To be clear.. I need to disable the Min Max Close on the Access application and not forms.
Thanks

I have this code that I want to close the database when a file is not found:
Option Explicit
Dim boolCountDown As Boolean
Dim intCountDownMinutes As Integer
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
boolCountDown = False
[Code] ....
A form with this code is opened when the database is loaded. The form refreshes every 10 seconds. When the form refreshes, it searches (is supposed to search) for a file name and if not found, close the database. but if it's found it does nothing. I rename the file when I want the database to close. But the code runs no matter what and closes the database even if the file is in the correct location with the correct name. the file path above is a network drive but it doesn't work no matter when I put the file. I bolded the parts that are supposed to be searched.

I have a report in Access 2010. The report contains some images in the main report area and in sub reports. I have The queries that feed the report and subreport contains the name of the pictures that are loaded into its image controls. I added the following code to my form in order to control what image is displayed for each record. Id like the form to work even if the database is moved as long as the subfolder and photos are moved along with it (thus using relative path).
Code:
Private Sub Report_(Current)
Dim ImagePath As String
Dim ImagePathInt As String
Dim ImagePathPlanV As String
[code]...
The problem seems to be that the routine doesn't seem to initially recognize the path. I have a blank photo in the folder containing all the images called NO PHOTO.jpg. If I open the report in design view and browse to this image in the picture parameter of any one of the image controls and run the report, then everything works perfectly even if I close and reopen the report. The report shows the right pictures even in the subreports.
The problem is when I close the database and reopen it, then the link is lost again, forcing me to do the process of browsing for the NO PHOTO image again. I already try to do an open form procedure to automatically reset the picture property, but although it resets the picture to the picture I set (I verify this by setting a different picture instead of the NO PHOTO) it does not make things work correctly as it does when I manually browse for it in design view. I also try to run the code above under the Report (Open) instead of the Report (Current) but that didn't work either.

I've tried to add some basic login (not really security) to my database so that when a different name is entered into the login box a different form is opened.
I got this working but the login form stays in foreground and I can't click anything behind it and can't get to the design view to change any properties of anything.
I've also changed this login form to the startup item so it always loads when i start the database.
Is there way to get back to the design view or do i have to start again from my backup?

Is it possible to create a command button on an Access switchboard that will automatically backup a database? What code would I need? The command button wizard doesn't handle this task.

I have a number of databases in my system and I created a database that only has a switchboard form in it. This switchboard form has links to all of the various databases I have created and opens their default input form. This works fine but now I wish to place a button on the switchboard to run a report that is located in one of the databases.
I tried to use the hyperlink command in the switchboard database but that will not show me the information in the other databases only the switchboard database. I assume I have to link the databases and create a connection to the other database and its report.

Is there a way to use the find command in access in one report to search throughout the whole database. For instance, I am designing a database that in a report it shows the number identifier of an item, and the actual detailed information is located in a separate form. What I want it to do is to be able to find the detailed information from a command within the report that only has the number identifier.

I am creating a small database to record payments.
There are three tables :
Supplier - tblSupplier
Payments - tblPayments
Invoice - tblInvoice
There are two Forms :
frmPayments (Bound to tblPayments) - Main Form for payment entry.
frmInvoice Sub (Bound to tblInvoice) - Sub form to display not paid invoices.
What i need is a Command button , lets named it "Commit", to perform a few tasks :
1. When click, prompt message asking whether to Save current payment record when all relevant input is completed during data entry.
2. If Answer is "Yes", then it will compare the "Invoice No" on the Main Form with the "Invoice No" of the Sub
Form , and if found to match, then put a tick in the "Yes/No" field of Invoice Table (tblInvoice) against the matching "Invoice No" of Main Form. This is to record payments made to this particular Invoice in Invoice Table.
3. Proceed to save current record, Refresh Main Form to be ready for a new data entry.
4.If Answer is "No", discard all current entries in the Main Form, Refresh to be ready for a new data entry.
Sample DB is attached...

I have created a database for a church cemetery. It contains the usual names, birthrates deaths, etc.... I have also created a map of the cemetery in PDF format with the lot number highlighted which is assigned to a particular record. I did the same in excel with a layout of the lot and a JPEG picture of the grave marker. In my table I created Three columns - Site Plan, Lot Plan, and Grave marker. I insert the specific site plan, lot plan, and jpeg picture using the "insert object" in the table. On my form after a search, I have created three buttons.. Site Plan, Lot Plan & Grave Marker.
I have looked and experimented trying to assign these command buttons to open these files on the form. I don't have any experience with macros or VB code.
