I have a Splash Screen type deal that loads after the user logs in I wanted to know if there was a way that I could add a Loading Bar that would say different things like Are you having a nice day?
View RepliesI have a main form (A) with a subform that is another form with a datasheet(A_SUB)
On the form A is an undo button which rewinds any changes that occur to A that I do not wish to commit. However when I make a change to A_SUB the changes are not rewound. I considered implementing an UNDO for A_SUB but this is messy. What would be a better solution?
Sorry for the flashy post.

Who can tell me why I don't have following option in the Combo Box Wizard?
"FIND A RECORD ON MY FORM BASED ON THE VALUE I SELECTED IN MY
COMBO BOX"
I am appreciate!
I'd like to know how to implement a pop-reminder that runs reminding the user of the database of :
1. some to-do actions for the current day or, for example, a week ahead of a certain event, that is related to some date previously entered in a table.
2. this should be within the access database.
3. I saw something like that in the [URL]... website, but actually couldn't understand it.
how to best implement a form for this very simple database (attached). I have a database that keeps track of just first names and colors. Not every first name needs a color assigned to it, and vice versa.
So, I have three tables:
tbFirstnames
First_ID (PK)
First_Name
tbColors
Color_ID (PK)
Color
jctbFirstColor (Junction Table)
First_ID (FK)
Color_ID (FK)
I want my continuous form (fmFirstColor) to show all first name records and have a drop-down to assign a color for each record individually. That's it -- two fields. With this form, I want to be able to create new first name records with or without colors assigned to them, and I want to be able to edit first names and change what colors are assigned for each name.
Again, very simple and small database, but I'm not sure where to run with this. I want to keep everything normalized and within best practice procedures. Is the junction table necessary or can it even be used in this instance?
I have made this sql statement in VBA where rubriek = a variable but I dont know how to implement a variable in a nested query.
SELECT "rubriek, SUM(verkoopprijs) as prijzen
FROM voorwerp
(inner join VoorwerpInRubriek on voorwerp.voorwerpnummer = VoorwerpInRubriek.voorwerp)
inner join Rubriek on rubriek.rubrieknummer = VoorwerpInRubriek.rubriekOpLaagsteNiveau
where rubriek in (select rubrieknummer
from rubriek
where rubriek = variable name
)
group by rubriek"
Do I have to treat it as a normal select query or is there something speical that I have to do ?
is there a way i can use substitution variables in access 2007, i wrote a query that returns rows which have a word okeu in them but i want to use substitution variables so that i can retrieve any word i want and if the word i want is not there i want to pop a message saying word not there its easier to do it in oracle sqlplus but how can i apply it in access using sql queries? This is my sql i made in access
Code:
SELECT MENU.NAME_REC, MENU.C_REC, AUTO.C_GROUP
FROM MENU, AUTO
WHERE (((MENU.NAME_REC)="okeu"));
We have the following table.
Code:
ID studentname lectureplace lecturesubject
1 jack A Biology
2 steve A politics
3 jack B math
4 steve A math
5 jack B politics
6 joe A politics
. . . .
. . . .
154 Jane B Geography
We need a query to implement two criteria to extract the following records:
1-Show lectureplace A AND politics lecturesubject
2-Show only those with lectureplace B regardless of the subject
In case the query is run we will have the following result:
Code:
ID studentname lectureplace lecturesubject
2 steve A politics
3 jack B math
5 jack B politics
6 joe A politics
I'm not sure which is the better of two options-
My problem is I need to make it easy for my users by authenticating themselves once when they open the database. User-level security is adequate for that job, but when I need to use the authentication information for connection string, I'm a bit antsy about storing it somewhere in Access, as I understand that passwords shouldn't be stored in the database itself (and as far as I can tell, it's not even encrypted or hashed!)
I am wondering if converting it to MDE would be sufficient to encrypt the password or will it still be apparent using a hex editor? I also know that Jet can try to use its own security to authenicate to the back-end, but not sure what I need to do to prompt Jet to pass along the credentials.
Alternatively, would it be better to somehow implement login using backend's security model, if even possible?
TIA.
I'm creating an equipment hire database, and I was wondering how I would not permit overlaps of equipment hire ie. equipment being borrowed before it is returned. I have a query that lists all bookings that overlap, but I am unsure of how to implement this into the table to prevent overlaps.
The SQL for the query is as follows:
SELECT Bookings.[Booking ID], Bookings.[Instrument ID], Bookings.[Borrow Date], Bookings.[Return Date], Bookings_1.[Booking ID], Bookings_1.[Instrument ID], Bookings_1.[Borrow Date], Bookings_1.[Return Date], ([Bookings_1].[Borrow Date]>[Bookings].[Return Date]) Or ([Bookings_1].[Return Date]<[Bookings].[Borrow Date]) Or ([Bookings].[Instrument ID]<>[Bookings_1].[Instrument ID]) Or ([Bookings].[Booking ID]=[Bookings_1].[Booking ID])

Hi,
I need help urgently. I am currently receiving files in .txt format through ftp which then reside in the same network folder as my Access Db. All the tables have been designed to read the data in. I'll be receiving these files on a daily basis. My idea is to automate this process. So, I would like to delete the existing data from the tables and then load the new set at a particular time everyday. Again, data comes in a .txt format through ftp. Please let me if this could be done and how. Thank you.

i have a form, in which two of the controls on the form, are unbound image controls, which display linked images. Now i have a button, which when both images have been displayed successfully, i would like to set the enabled property of this button to true.
How can i detect, that an image has ended up linking and is now fully displayed ?
Thank You
Hey,
I am updating a switchboard from someone elses work.
I get the error on other peoples computers (but not my own) that there is an "error loading DLL" and the I get "The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: The expression you entered has a function name that <database> can't find.
* The expression maay not result in the name of a macro, the name of a user-defined function or [Event Procedure].
* There may have been an error evaulating the function, event, or macro"
I am including a before and after of the db as attached. (-new is the new one)
Again the form opens perfectly on my computer for both but not for anyone else. The error thrown is included as well as the jpg
HELP NEEDED AND APPRECIATED!
Hi, im using a .mdb Database in Access 2003 and i got it stored on my network server.
Now i have this problem:
If i start the Database on one specific computer, the main menu (the first page that pops up at loading) is not showing correctly
Other Forms are accessible through the manager-list
Meaning, that background and picture in background are showing correctly, but none of my buttons are there.
All i get is one single small click-button and a "1" next to it....
Button not having effect at all..
So my questions :
a) why is this problem only showing on ONE and only one computer? On other computers the database is just doing fine.
b) what IS the nature of the problem
c) how to fix it?
Many thanx for a quick reply..
Hi all,
I encountered some weird symptons with my Access forms. I am using the form to display images(done by setting the OnCurrent and After Update property).
When my PC is just powered on, and i try to load say form "ENGLISH". Form "ENGLISH" will appear, but the focus will switch in between form ENGLISH and the MS ACCESS program window. This action will onli settle down after abt 10 secs.
When the ENGLISH form is loaded, i will attempt to switch from one record to another, but the same thing occurs again. IT will load/refresh for abt 10seconds, with the focus toggling btwn ENGLISH FORM n MS Access.. IN addition, it opens a second copy of FORM "ENGLISH" in the background as can be seen on my taskbar. When i close my 1st form ENGLISH and i attempt to close the 2nd FORM tat is appearing on the taskbar, there will be an error msg, English : MSACCESS.EXE-Application Error, Instruction at....(refer to the attached jpeg file for detailed error location)
Y is it tat this weird behaviour onli applies to the forms tat are used to display images but not those normal forms tat contains of purely text?
The entire behaviour will be eliminated after i close MS access, and reload the DB abt twice.....

Hi
I am trying to get a blank ribbon to be in place when a user opens my application. I have an Adp linked to SQL Server. If I create a table in SQL Server named ribbons and have the app read the data in that table in the AutoExec macro (this runs the code that reads the data) then assign the new ribbon to Application.LoadCustomUI RS("RibbonName").Value, RS("RibbonXml").Value it works and the blank ribbon is displayed. The problem is that this is no use because if the adp is not connected to the database on startup it causes an error as no connection has been established.
Instead I have put exactly the same xml file into a module but this does not have the same affect even though I call the same Application.LoadCustomUI method. I havent really done anything different except change how the xml is found. The problem with this method is it just pops the new ribbon into the list of available ribbons so then the user would have to choose the ribbon, shut down and restart, that is no use.
Has anybody got any idea what can be done about this? I will post the code below.
Thank you for any advice on what can be done.
Paul
First method (which works but is no good for distributing the app)
Autoexec calls the following
Public Function LoadRibbons()
Dim RS As Recordset
Set RS = CurrentProject.Connection.Execute("SELECT Ribbons.RibbonName, Ribbons.RibbonXML FROM RIBBONS")
If Not RS.BOF Then
Application.LoadCustomUI RS("RibbonName").Value, RS("RibbonXml").Value
End If
RS.Close
Set RS = Nothing
End Function
but using the following and calling it in autoexec just puts the ribbon in the list and doesnt use it
Function CreateRibbon()
Dim xml As String
xml = _
"<customUI xmlns=""http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2006/01/customui"">" & vbCrLf & _
" <ribbon startFromScratch=""true"">" & vbCrLf & _
" <officeMenu>" & vbCrLf & _
" <button idMso=""FileCompactAndRepairDatabase"" visible=""false""/>" & vbCrLf & _
" <button idMso=""FileOpenDatabase"" visible=""false""/>" & vbCrLf & _

" <splitButton idMso=""FileSaveAsMenuAccess"" visible=""false""/>" & vbCrLf & _

"</customUI>"
Application.LoadCustomUI "BlankRibbon", xml
End Function
Hi,
what is the best way to load or unload subforms? currently, i have the subforms within my form and code will change it visible and invisible but it would be better i think if they could be loaded or unloaded as i iahve existing code in the forms that all needs to be written.
( i originally had the subforms as separate forms that opened as a single form ).
can you load / unload subforms on a form as normal forms?
regs,

View 4 Replies View RelatedIf I have a tab control in a form, with a form on each tab, will the data from all the tab's forms have to be loaded when I open the 'host' (don't know what to call it) form?
I can't tell if the load time is increased, as there isn't much data there yet, so it's pretty much instant anyway...
Hi.
I am running a form on top of a query with around 1500 records in it. The query mostly uses tables that are joined with referential integrity.
The form has buttons and conditional formatting.
It was fine until today, when suddenly the form has stopped loading properly. It looks all fragmented on the screen and I have to scroll down and scroll back up again for it to look right.
I have searched everywhere to find out what is causing this and how it can be fixed, but no luck yet. Can you help?
Thanks.
hi... I have a form containing 120 subforms...
the form will be loaded depending on the user...
i name my subforms in sequence that is: loadA1, loadA2, loadA3,....
to load a form I just use the code: me.loadA3.sourceobject = "FormName"
and then I make a counter to keep track of which forms are loaded and which one to load next.. as they load in sequence..
the question is if its possible to write the above code in a string type or other way to make the code shorter...
For example my code is as follows: If ACount = 0 Then
Me.LoadA1.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 1 Then
Me.LoadA2.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 2 Then
Me.LoadA3.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 3 Then
Me.LoadA4.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 4 Then
Me.LoadA5.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 5 Then
Me.LoadA6.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 6 Then
Me.LoadA7.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 7 Then
Me.LoadA8.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 8 Then
Me.LoadA9.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 9 Then
Me.LoadA10.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 10 Then
Me.LoadA11.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 11 Then
Me.LoadA12.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 12 Then
Me.LoadA13.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 13 Then
Me.LoadA14.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 14 Then
Me.LoadA15.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 15 Then
Me.LoadA16.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 16 Then
Me.LoadA17.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 17 Then
Me.LoadA18.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 18 Then
Me.LoadA19.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
ElseIf ACount = 19 Then
Me.LoadA20.SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
End If
If ACount < 19 Then
ACount = ACount + 1
ElseIf ACount < 0 Then
ACount = 0
Else
ACount = 20
End If
anyway to make it something like:
"me.loadA" & Acount & ".SourceObject = "TEMPCableName"
??
Thanks in advance
help is much appreciated
I have a player information form where a player picture is stored. When I first wrote the program I was able to upload a picture no problem from my computer, I had a crash and now when I try to load a picture it takes three times as long and all that shows in the picture window is the picture name. Did I lose a setting or a program during the crash? Hope this makes enough sense.
