Is It Possible To Fully Flash (Clear) The Title Bar
Aug 14, 2007
Is it possible to fully flash (Clear) the MS Access application window title bar?
I mean to let it appear fully empty without the "MS Access" and the Access logo, the key.
I made it but I wasnt able to remove the MS Access logo, the key from the title bar
I have a report which includes several subreports. There will be times when a subreport prints partially on one page and completes on the next. I don't always want to break to a new page with this subreport. However, I would want to break to a new page if the subreport cannot fully print on the current page.
Hello i want to use as a front end as i can create better forms etc... i want the end user to enter information into a form in Flash and then it automatically updates the access back end? is there a simple way of doing this??
I would like to juice up a form with a little animation (logo). I tried embedding a Flash movie, but it will only run in a seperate window, and that's clearly not what I want. Placing an animated GIF in a form doesn't move a bit. Any ideas?
how can I make a textbox flash when a certain time has been reached such as a delivery time textbox...so if delTime is set to 11:00am and you want its textbox to flash if delTime is 9:00am.
hi I'm trying to search s specific vlaue from an access database. The problem starts when i have multiple resolts... I managed to send the query from flash and get 1 resolt, but how can i get multiple ??? please help! ohad
I've created a form with a (simple) Flash animation on it, but it runs very choppy. But when a message box is active, it runs perfect. It seems that when the focus is off the form, it works fine, but otherwise, it doesn't. Any ideas? :confused:
I have a formula box in my form (textbox) called InventLeft that would calculate product in my inventory. I'd like to make this box flash if the result in it is Less than 2..This way it would catch attention to my user to order more product..Is this possible? Thanks in advance..
Hey. My database would like, to make itself feel complete, a rele snazzy opening form. I have flash 8 and I've created a 1024x768 movie with some simple animation on it. I've managed to add the movie to the database as a ActiveX flash object and the animations play. The problem is making the object larger! It's staying very small no matter how I change the properties of the control. Any help would be much appreciated. For the sake of my databases mental health... of course. :cool:
To attach the movie I did so: http://www.databasedev.co.uk/flash_movie.html
I'm working on a series of forms for a company that I'm currently employed at, and on one of them I've made a listbox which will display records which need action in the next 2 weeks.
That's all going fine. However, it it possible to make the items in the listbox flash red? Just so that our external worker REALLY has no excuses!
Just to clarify, I want the text identifying the records (E.g. Name, FinalDate) to flash, but not the headers for the columns in the listbox.
I have a form with one (field1) on it. Where users will enter data.
I would like to have a unbound textbox on the same form that will flash green if the data entered in field1 matches a value in Table. Or flash red if it doesnt find a match.
I tried the conditional formatting but i think my expressions are off.
I. The two issues I am trying to address is to see if there is simple code that can be used to make a command button flash.
II. I need to show in a small pop-up box users that have expired licences. When the main License form is first called to open, I would like a smaller pop up box or preview form to open up(without operators except for the close button). The pop-up box will be based on a query that already exists to show those with expired license. Can the form be similar to the pop-up calendar found in Access already?
I need to create a message box or a form or something to flash on the screen to tell the user that a piece of "Update" code is running. the update code will be updated reports from marketing returns, but the 3 branches who use the information are separate so I am creating an update form to download and update the table.
The code for the update is already working, but can take a while, so I thought a message or splash screen would be useful as the update runs on start up.
It would have another use, I have a report which is made mainly of calculated fields on an onPrint event and also takes a while to work it out, so a similar screen would be more useful than my current spinning circle and blank screen.
I will try to explain what I have, but for a little more information please see the thread where I was trying to get a single instance of this query to run: http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=146582
This above thread was to allow users to select a valid month from a "quota" table of data to compile work data for that particular month. The way this all works is I delete a history table, append the data from my work table, and then add the data from a quota table. Each time a user runs this report, those three queries run dependant on the month selected. At the bottom of this report I sum up the columns to give an overall total for production numbers. The table is set up as: For MMM YY (selected) Item........Repaired......Quota widget1........1...............3 widget2........2...............0 widget3........6...............4 widget4........2...............2
Now what I need to be able to do is to retrieve all these totals at once; so that the numbers can be graphed by month. This history table that is built is not perminantly stored; since all the 'data' for it is contained throughout a couple other tables. I didn't see a reason to need to store 'all' that data again since it could be retrieved as needed.
Is it possible to write a query that will run this process for all distinct dates in the quota table and sum the data for repairs and quotas? Something like this:
I want to put a value from a field in a table in the Title Bar.
So far i have done (Looking at 2 ways to create, 1 with module below or directly in the form, only just lloking at the module way so is not finished as i am waiting to get it to work directly first):
Module Option Compare Database
Function ChangeTitle() Dim dbs As DAO.Database Dim prp As DAO.Property Const conPropNotFoundError = 3270
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler ' Return Database variable pointing to current database. Set dbs = CurrentDb ' Change title bar. dbs.Properties!AppTitle = "DYSMS " & (SoftwareVersion.tblSoftwareInformation) ' Update title bar on screen. Application.RefreshTitleBar Exit Function
ErrorHandler: If Err.Number = conPropNotFoundError Then Set prp = dbs.CreateProperty("AppTitle", dbText, _ SoftwareVersion.tblSoftwareInformation) dbs.Properties.Append prp Else MsgBox "Error: " & Err.Number & vbCrLf & Err.Description End If Resume Next End Function
Directly
Does not work Dim stAppTitle As String stAppTitle = "DYSMS " & (SoftwareVersion.tblSoftwareInformation) Me.Caption = stAppTitle
Does work Dim stAppTitle As String stAppTitle = "DYSMS " & (Now()) Me.Caption = stAppTitle
So need to declare the SoftwareVersion field i guess??
In my form I have the title of a CD which is under the name of 'CD_Title' which is taken from my CD's table and I was wondering how to show it up in a Label so when I flick through the albums the Label changes to the album that it is selected!
For Access 2003 - is there a way to stack one word on top of another when you rename a column? So, instead of having two words side by side for a column title, is there a way to put one on top of the other?
For example - change from this "today's date" to "today's date"
This should hopefully be an easy one for somebody:
How can I not display the title of any opened form at the very top of the screen. I would prefer to have the switchboard title remaining visible instead of the form title.
For example I have a form called 'frmPC' so the top of the screen shows 'frmPC : Form' when the form is open.
i have a form, and i would like that on one of the fields, as soon as i type something in it when i leave the field, i want it to automatically convert it to title case. can this be done please?
I have an *.mdb file with a bunch of tables, queries, forms, macro's etc. The file is named "xxx" but the display in the top left hand corner of the access window (next to the red key) is "yyy". I've looked everywhere and can't seem to find where this information is stored - as I need to change the "yyy" to match the filename "xxx" (the *.mdb was originally used for something else). Anyone know where this info is stored or how to change it?
This is the table: ID | Item | 2/2/07 | 3/2/07 | 5/3/07 | 7/3/07 --------------------------------------------------------- 101Tap10152010 102Ply25201010
Note that 2/2/07 till 7/3/07 are field names having purchase quantity.
I have a cross_tab query, that users print on a monthly basis.
The user selects whether they want to include data for one or all of three products. So the query could show data for example for Salmon only.
I need to be able to show on the printed query, what products it is displaying for. At the moment the query is called "TotalxProccessor_Product". Once the query is printed there is no way to tell if it is for Mussels, Salmon, Oysters or all three products.
Is there an easy way to manipulate the title the query prints our with?
Or do I have to go through a report to have control?
