I have an Access 2013 database file with many fields. One of them, I'll call it Field 3, is a box which I would like to either leave blank or put a check mark in it. I would like to be able to create an Iif field for Field 3 where a check mark is automatically inserted in Field 3 IF Field 1 - Field 2 <or= 0, otherwise I'd like Field 3 to remain empty.
So I have finished a database and split it which is great. Only issue now is how do I turn the front end into an executable so no access to any parts of the access program or system can happen? I have done this before in a very old version of access but how to do it in Access 2013.

I am using VBA in Access 2013 to make a PowerPoint presentation using data from the access database. know if it is possible to use Access VBA to create a button in the presentation that runs a procedure itself?
I have a very experienced colleague who has Access 2013 and has the following issue:
For some reason, Access keeps recapitalizing the first character of the field names when I save, close, and reopen the table in design view! I just spent several hours lower casing prefixes only to discover after I ran a routine to extract the field names that they had been recapitalized!
I've fiddled with turning off Autocorrect, but that seems to do nothing positive for me. How to turn this feature OFF?
I am trying to Hide or Show the Access Window by using two buttons on a Form. Running Access 2013 in Windows 7 64bit.
I have used code from the Internet as below but added the PtrSafe item to the Function Declaration as below:-
Option Compare Database 'Hide Access desktop screen and float Forms on pc desktop Private Declare PtrSafe Function IsWindowVisible Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long) As Long
Dim dwReturn As Long Const SW_HIDE = 0
[Code] ....
I then have two buttons on a form coded as below:-
Option Compare Database Private Sub cmd_Hide_dbw_Click() Call fSetAccessWindow("Minimize", False, False) DoCmd.OpenForm "frm_Test", acNormal End Sub
[Code] .....
I have attached a Test Database which demonstrates the problem I am experiencing.
Do the following sequence...............
Open the Test Database. DO NOT ENABLE CONTENT The Access 'Ribbon'Test_Database.accdb is active and usable Open frm_Test in Design View in order to inspect, all should be as shown above. Now click the Enable Content warning Switch frm_Test to Form View
Click button Hide dbw. Closes the Access Window Click button Show dbw. Opens the Access Window...HOWEVER....
Attachment 20252The Access Ribbon is locked and usable !!!
I have created a database that is hosted on our company sharepoint. The database contains subcontracts with resource information by geographic location and status. I have built queries and added them as reports to the web app but I need to figure out a way to sum totals on the queries. For example, one report lists all resources of a particular type by 4 different zones and 3 different status. I need to have the bottom row show the total resources.
I have problem sharing an Access 2013 file from one cumputer and then change the data in the file on another computer, or i can change it but the change wont be made one both computers.
I'm working so i need my secretary to be able to change information or add, but i also need to get the change.
Using MS Access 2013, part of Office 365, I am trying to construct a report that has a different first page footer than the rest of the document. Googling for answers has produced a few options, but none that seem to work. I have virtually no VBA knowledge. I was hoping that there might be some code that I could place in a label in the footer and have it work.
Access 2013 ... Is it possible to compact a database to a new name?
(In previous incarnations of Access I regularly 'compacted and repaired' databases to USB sticks rather than simply copy the file in the (mistaken??) belief that this was a more reliable approach)...
we are moving from Access 2003 to 2013 using Windows 8.1 64bits. We used Leban's code and library to create and merge pdfs. C
Creating pdfs can be done with built-in functionality in Access 2013. But I can't find a way of merging pdfs. I've tried Leban's Dlls files but I am getting run-time error: "File not found:StrStorage.dll" do I need to do something extra to make Leban's code work on Windows 8 64bits ?
I made a new column in a table in access. The table is not linked and linking unfortunately is not an option. In the new column, I want to create a sum for 5 years of funding. There are multiple columns for a different fiscal year.
In excel, it is simply =sum(range), but I am drawing completely blank how to fill in the column with the sum data.
The end result is the data from 4 tables will be displayed in Forms and Reports.
Essentially what I need is an ability to bulk update a column in access table without a need to reupload the entire datasheet (over 100k rows with about 30 columns).
I am setting up a database using Access 2013, and am trying to test downloading files from Excel. For some reason it is not allowing me to have more then 4 columns in the excel file, it gives the error "Subscript out of range". I thought it was the type of variable at first, but when I tried deleting different columns on both files, the transfer always worked with 4 columns. How do I allow more columns to be transferred?Also, is there a way to not include the row numbers of the excel file as an ID column and only include the ID given in the first column?
I have a table in access and I need to format it so that when column "Status" = "Closed" column "Closed" = "yes". so it will automatically mark column "Closed" "yes" if "status" says "closed". Instead of having to change both columns all the time.I know how to do that in MS Excel, but is it possible in MS Access 2013?
My forms work well, but in form view are widely separated from the user tool bar. That is, the form is in the upper top left corner of the screen and the tool bar for choosing records is in the left hand corner at the bottom of the screen. I cannot get the tool bar in a position near the bottom of the form where it would be easier to work with.
Having trouble using .JPG images in Access 2013 reports? I inserted some images (of arrows) onto a label report. Since then, I've had problems with my DB becoming corrupted or "unstable". I can give more detail if wanted, but my main question is do y'all recommend using images in reports and forms. If so, what format?
In Access 2007 and 2010 there was a "Collect Data" group under "External Data" where I could click "Create E-mail" that would build an email form for an outbound email in Outlook based on a table. I would then send the email out, then collect the data back into the table from Outlook when the recipient of the email responded with a filled out form. I don't see how to do that with Access 2013. I do see the "Email" button, but that's for something else. I see no 'Collect Data' in Access 2013 like the picture below shows from Access 2007.
1.) pink arrow // I've changed the titel in a diagram with vba ... is there also a methode to move the position of the titel with vba ( left-center or rigth ? )
2.) red arrow // maybe its because of the titel placement.I would like to change the size of a diagram with VBA code to have the diagram fit nicely to a given space best thing would be if there would be a possibility to resize the diagram in the given space
I have a database with a table and 2 forms.One form (frmList) is a list of all records in the database, and the other form (frmInput) displays fields for a single record.There is a button in frmList which runs the following script. The user clicks a record in frmList, clicks the button, and the selected record opens in frmInput. ID is a text field containing digits and an alpha that is in both frmList and frmInput.
Code: Private Sub Command9_Click() Dim ID As String strCriteria = "ID = '" & Me.ID.Value & "'" DoCmd.OpenForm "frmInput", acNormal Form_frmInput.Recordset.FindFirst strCriteria End Sub
This script works as expected in Access 2010. However we recently upgraded to Access 2013 and since then, this script causes Access to crash ("Access has stopped working..." dialog appears).I have stepped through the script and the line causing the crash is
I can't find any problems with syntax or anything about Recordset.Findfirst being deprecated in 2013 so I suspected some kind of file corruption. To resolve this I have tried: Compacting and repairing the databaseDecompiling and recompiling the VBA modulesCreating a fresh database and copying all the objects into it
could this be due to a missing library or something? Are there other methods of resolving a corrupt database if that is the problem? Or as a last resort is there an alternative method to Recordset.FindFirst that I can use to open a form to a particular record while retaining the ability to navigate through other records?
I have been developing an Access (accdb) in V2013 at home for use in my work environment. Ultimately it will be used by a small number of users in different locations hence my need to split the database into a front end and back-end tables. I have done this many times before in other versions of Access and if the location of the back-end files has been changed when you open the database it prompts you to find the new location and re-link them. Since I am carrying on the development at home/work and then taking the front-end into work/home I need Access to prompt me for the new location. However unless you remove linked tables first Access 2013 will not prompt you for the new location instead it just bypasses that and asks you to open a database so you are stuck in a loop. The database has been designed to open offering users minimal possibility of tinkering so I open holding the 'Shift key' down but this still doesn't prompt me to re-link. Why is the linked table manager not being fired up?
