I am sorry to post this as I did do an extensive search through the forums. I am looking for a way to link images to a form from an image folder I have created outside my database. As I said, I did do a search and there is a lot of information listed. For some reason, I understand non of it. I am a bit of a novice as my personal database is quite simple.
Below is a screen grab from my database showing how I want to link my images; how I want them to look. This image is taken from an old incarnation of my database when I thought I was linking images but in fact was storing them on my computer. Like I said, I am sorry to bring this up but all of the help is a little over my head, of someone would not mind telling me VERY simple steps to achieve what I want to do, I would be very appreciative.
I want to be able to have the pictures change for each record.
I am using Access 2010 and I am fairly new to it (started using it for work).
I have a table with a bunch of a agreement numbers (134) and I need to link each one to its folder on our company's shared G drive. The agreement numbers all follow the format A12.## (Where ## is the number of the agreement going from 1-134).
So I have the path to get to the location of all the agreement files, and I know there has to be a faster way than to edit each individual hyperlink, I myself just don't know how to do it.
Also the files on the shared drive start with the A12.## but then also continue with the name of the agreement. I was thinking that somehow for each record you could apply all at once the same path to the agreements and then for each individual record get it to search for its closest matching agreement number?
I thought this would be pretty simple, but I cannot figure out how and wasn't able find the solution here or anyway.
I have a source form. (I can resort to having a Table with OLE Object if I must, but prefer not to.) On this source form I wish to include different things such as company logo. This will determine what logo shows up in all the reports, so all the reports will have an image linking back to this embedded image on the source form.
Pseudo-code Example: frmSource contains imgLogo rptSample contains an image whose control source = Forms!frmSource!imgLogo
How can I do this or achieve the same effect in a more-or-less simple way?
I have a form that I would like to update a picture on using VBA. The source of the picture path is in part a query that is not bound to the form. So far I have the following code that is pretty much working, but with a couple flaws.
Code: Private Sub Form_Current() LoadDefaultPicture End Sub Sub LoadDefaultPicture() Dim db As DAO.Database
[Code] ....
This is working. However, when I change the record the picture flashes the current picture once and then loads the new picture. It is like it reloads the current picture then loads the new one. I'm hoping there is a way to get rid of the flash.
Also, the code fails here: strDefaultPictureName = rs.Fields("AttachmentName")
When the query does not return a record. I can definitely fix this by adding an if statement to check for a record, but I'm kind of perplexed at why it is failing at that line. I would expect it to assign an empty string to that variable name and then fail on the next command where I try and set the ".Picture" property of the image.
I need to get a list of about 110 subfolders from within a folder. I searched high and low on this forum, but didn't see what I was hoping to find.
I tried putting a little Function together, but it gives an error. Here's the routine, and I commented the line that gives me an error:
Option Compare Database Option Explicit
Public Function ListFolderss()
Dim strDBName As String
Dim rst1 As DAO.Recordset
Dim MyFile, MyPath, MyName
Set rst1 = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("APCSProcess")
MyPath = "\Jana-dp-dataprojectsHoneywell-IHCSundstrand Legacy DataAPCS (Files for Conversion)"
MyName = Dir(MyPath, vbDirectory)
Do While MyName <> ""
' Ignore the current folder and the encompassing folder. If MyName <> "." And MyName <> ".." Then
'**** This next line causes a 'File not found' error If (GetAttr(MyPath & MyName) And vbDirectory) = vbDirectory Then '**** rst1.AddNew rst1!NameOfDataBase = MyName rst1.Update End If End If MyName = Dir Loop
End Function
If any of you smart, intelligent folks would please either look at my code and advise me on the error of my ways, or suggest an alternative, I would be very grateful. Thank you in advance.... looking forward to your replies!

I'm trying to get a complete list of folders within a given Folder but can only get it down to the level of the main folders sub folders but should a sub folder also contain folders it misses these.
My code below builds a list like:
c:fld1fld2fld3
This function is used to fill a combo box
Function ShowFolderList() As String Dim fs, F, f1, S, sf, All, AF, FC, sb, sb1, sbf, sbc Dim Lst As String Lst = "" Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set F = fs.GetFolder(Me![FoldersRoot] & Me![StartInFolder]) Set sf = F.SubFolders For Each f1 In sf Lst = Lst & f1 & ";" Set sb = f1.SubFolders For Each sb1 In sb Lst = Lst & sb1 & ";" Next Next 'Now Remove The Last ; If Their If Right(Lst, Len(Lst)) = ";" Then ShowFolderList = Left(Lst, Len(Lst) - 1) Else ShowFolderList = Lst End If
I am trying to make some folders from a Query list to my C drive.I found this code for making folders. I have a button on a form with this code. It works with making a folder but only gives me the first item in the query out of many rows. It is missing the rest of the items.Also I would like it to be able to make Sub Folders too from this query.Here is the code I found.
Private Sub MakePreservationTagFolder_DblClick(Cancel As Integer) Dim strFolder As String strFolder = "C:UsersryanDocuments" & "Tag - " & DLookup("[Tag]", "Tags Qy")
Am looking to do a treeview type of search to hyperlink to client file/folders on my network. This way I can hide the main file source location in the network and files can just be accessible via Access program search.
So far I found this link [URL] and the 3rd bottom option seems to be the most promising but I cant seem to figure how to accomplish the hyperlinks.
I have the below code to create email and folders based on data from the database. For now, I'm able to create the main folder and add a word document inside. What could be changed on the code or added to add 2 sub folder named "Documents" and "Correspondence"
Greetings.
Code: Option Compare Database Private Sub SendEmail_Click() On Error GoTo Err_open_word_Click
Is there a good way to let Access be the database for collections of files and folders (on a Windows PC) that would organize projects and give information about the files. When I say information I mean description, progress(check in & check out duration of work, and timers), and location. I think this would work with organizing our projects and knowing what file is the current one we should be working on when we have many. A while ago I was working in FileMaker and noticed that one of there template options said "Collection of Files".
the code below sends 3 reports to a folder that the vba creates if needed. I would like to change it so the 3 reports go to different folders and creates a folder with the customer name in each of the below folders if needed at present it looks table with one folder address is as I dont know how to make it look up the 3 different records in that table so I would like to just put the 3 folder address in the code
I have over 500 folders that contain XML files in each folder. I need to go through each folder and append the data from the XML files into my database.
I have been trying to import Outlook (2010) floders into Access 2010. So far, I have only been able to import 1 folder at a time. I have also tried linking the access database to Outlook, not much luck there.What I was wanted to do was import the pst / ost file into access and then work from there.is there a way to import the Inbox and all sub-folders at one time.
I'm using a function to find all files/folders in a specific directory, then copy each one to a specific destination folder. I'm going to use this on a weekly basis to backup files on a computer. I would like to use the vbarchive in GetAttr/SetAttr so I only need to copy these if they have changed since last backup.
Something like:
If GetAttr(strFile) And vbArchive = 32 then filecopy xxxx, xxxx else rs.movenext
As I understand it, a value of 32 indicates that the file has been modified since it was last backuped up (i.e. since the file attribute was "reset"). How do I "reset" the file attributes to clear the vbArchive?? I've read some google searches and the only thing I could find was the files were set to vbnormal however I'm concerned that this will erase program files that are vbReadOnly or VbHidden.
I have been looking into populating a tree-view with folders and files, and have found some great examples for doing this, How ever...I cannot seem to work out how to show files/pictures in a form based on the click event of the tree-view.
I have managed to do an onclick event for the files in the tree-view, but I cannot seem to get the onclick event for folders in a tree-view.
Here is an example which I am working on at the moment, but get the error Object variable Or with block variable not set.
Code: Private Sub tvw_Click() Dim tClient As String Dim tParent As Scripting.folder Dim fd As Scripting.folder Dim fNode As MSComctlLib.Node
create/find code that will count the number of text files in a directory with one level of folders please see below:
Directory path is : B:
First and only level of sub folders:
there are 100 of these and they all end in ".fof"These .fof folders will always contain .txt files.I've tried using the following code, but it always returns No files found.
Code:
Dim lngFileCount As Long Dim StrFileName As String StrFileName = Dir$("B:*.txt") Do While Len(StrFileName) <> 0
I am trying to set up something to be able to take me to a folder that holds various forms for personnel. I have a query that generates the link for each person. I have tried to set it up as a hyperlink in ACCESS 2013 and it displays as one but doesn't act like one.
I want to be able to click the link and have it open up a personnel folder for that individual. I can't find a MACRO that I can create to do it. Example of my query is that it creates a link K:Main BreakdownSection BreakdownPersonnel FoldersName and the name is the variable part.
My next problem will be to have it create that folder when we have new personnel arriving.
I would also note that I have not worked with ACCESS in many years and much of what I was able to do with 2002 and 2003 doesn't work with the newer versions of ACCESS.
I'm in desperate need of help and want to know if it is possible to load an image on a form once a hyper link is created.
For example, I have a form with a hyper link to an image created, currently, when you click on the hyperlink, it opens the picture in the browser, can you change it so that it loads teh image embedded into the form instead of loading it into a browser?
I need to update a graphic on my form as part of the record information. Specifically, I have a graphic of the human body, and need the user to be able to mark the area where it hurts-scribble or put an "X" there-whatever. This modified graphic then needs to be stored somewhere and associated with that particular record.
Has anybody done this? Any suggested starting places?
How can I get an animated image on my switchboard? I found an animated image on the internet and I copied it. I went into design view and pasted it onto the switchboard then I went back to form view. I can see the image but it is not animated. How do I animate it?
i have a cars database because it is difficult to add 4000 pictures i want to know if is it possible to add a field that opens an ie page in google images to show results of images for that car? ex : model : Ferrari foto link :http://images.google.com.gr/images?hl=el&lr=&q=Ferrari&btnG=%CE%91%CE%BD%CE%B1%CE%B6%CE%AE%CF%84%CE%B7%CF %83%CE%B7
