I need to disable or hide the restore, minimize and close window buttons found in the top right hand corner of a form.
I navigation buttons that controls open, close etc already set up.
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,
Anyone know in microsoft access 97 is it possible to remove the close button (top right hand corner) when a form is maximised?
Thanks.
As the title says, ctrl-W works on all my other forms but not on the one which has Pop-up set to "Yes".
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to find the Before Update event in the event builder and I cant see it anywhere.
I've seen a few different ways of achieving the same thing but so far nothings worked.
If a user adds wrong information and choses to close the form then it always saves the data. I only want it saved if the user choses to save it.
The close button I have has saving turned off but it seems the record has already been updated by that point.
The before update is in form properties, I have found it now. But I cant set the parameter 'Cancel' to True.
If I look at the forms code this is there,
Option Compare Database
Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
End Sub
I have validation logic that runs to test whether certain fields are inputted properly etc on my form. I call these methods in the Before_Update of each form. But How do i actually STOP the update from happening? OR how do i stop the form from being closed?
Right now, I just give all these warnings but the save still happens!
I have a simple EXIT command button that runs these macro actions: save record, close form. I also have a SAVE command button that runs this macro action: save record. If a user closes the form without clicking either the EXIT or SAVE command buttons, will the record changes be saved in the datasource table.
I have found from testing that the data is always saved even if the user does not click the EXIT or SAVE buttons, but I wanted to be absolutely certain. Is this correct ?
I have a split form that's like a list of pending tasks. The data source is a linked SharePoint 2013 list where users submit requests. The user takes the information from each record and performs an action. When it is done, the user presses a button and the task status changes from "Pending" to "Processed". The form record source is based on a query that finds only records with a status of "Pending" so when the user changes the status of the task, it is removed from the list. It works fine except when there is only one task left in the work list. If the user processes the last task, the form refreshes and it goes to a new empty record and I get an error message that says I must enter a value into one of the required fields. I tried making the field non-required but it just creates an empty record in the table.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI was hoping someone knows how to disable the ability for users to gain access to the properties window.
When viewing a form (or any object), one can usually right click, click on the corner of the form, or a few other actions and gain access to the properties option. If selected, the properties window is displayed with all the object's properties.
Is there a way to NOT allow the users to select this option? i.e. to disable this option from the menu list?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

I have a Access database that is used as the user interface for general users but the data is stored in SQL. My client has asked that general users be able to see only selected fields in the table. This means that they must only use the form to view records and not be able to get to the table.
How do I disable the the Window Unhide in the MDE?
Hello,

Hey guys,
I figured out to maximize a window when a report is opened, but now I want to restore the window sizes when this report is closed.
I think I kind of know what to do with the DoCmd.Restore and something about OnClose, but I'm lost in the syntax. If someone could help me out by giving me the syntax and where to put this code that would be fantastic :)
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

how to disable the main close button so the user is forced to click the Quit Application button on my main switchboard?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI'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?
hello again guys

How to disable the Minimise, Restore and Close Buttons at the very top right hand corner of the Access application?
I have got buttons on my database to open / close everything so no need for them, even to hide the full Title bar probably be okay.
I am running Access 2007.
Creating a database for processing survey data into a report format. We receive these reports as paper copies, which are then scanned in using Remark Office OMR. This results in a table of data, which is intended to be appended to the existing table in the database using Save As --> Access 2007, selecting the database and target table, clicking save as, and then selecting 'Append' from the subsequent popup.
What I want to know is: Is it possible to disable/otherwise prevent the 'Overwrite' option in this window from being selected? Can I make the table or database in such a way that data can only be added, not edited or deleted?
I use Access 2007.I have a db split in FE(forms, queries, vbcode) & BE(tables only).I want users not to be able to view or explore the tables, the queries, the form design and details, in both Ends.Unfortunately, even disabling via VB code the menus, the db window, the tool & status bars, they appear and are accessible to the users (it only works in a non-split db, turned to an accde).
How can I disable any view on forms, queries, vbcode and tables details and data to users, in both FE and BE and only allow them to add data through specific form?
Hi,
I'm looking to take a screen dump of the current Access window, and save it to disk, as part of the error handling for my application. Does anybody have any suggested starting points? I've been Googling around for a while, but haven't really turned up anything concrete.
This (http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=240653) was as close as I really got (sending the print screen keystroke), however I still need a way to save this data to the disk.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

I find the following CODE online (Print to PDF). Which work perfectly for me, the only issue and/or modification I am looking for "Popup Window to save the file at any location", instead at fixed location.
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Function PrintToPDF(SrcFile As String)
On Error GoTo PrintToPDF_Err
'Function can be called from any report with this: "PrintToPDF(Screen.ActiveForm.Name)"
[Code] ....
I have a form and a report that will not save the changes nor close. I have done compact and repair, performed a restart and it is still happening. What could cause something like this. I have been working all day on other forms and reports without incident.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have a parent window which upon clicking on a button will pop-up a child window containing a listbox. The listbox recordsource is a subset of the parent window. I want the user to select a record from the listbox which will load the selected record onto the parent window.
How does one pass argument back from child window to parent window?
From parent window to child window, I used
docmd.openform ,,,,,,[argument] and me.openargs in the child window
thanks in advance.
