I have recently updated my version of Access. Within a tbl i have a series of hyperlinks. All of these hyperlinks are linked to an object within the database, a macro as an example. When i go to edit these hyperlinks, it does not allow me to link 'to objects within the database'. This options used to be available in my older version of Access. Am i missing something?
I have created an inventory database that tracks all of the assets in our company over the last few days. IT is functional, but now its time to fluff it up. I am going to add the display pics that we have for all employee on the form that displays their information and what assets are assigned to them. I want it to display their picture on this form as well. I have it working, but am wondering if there is an alternate method to copy and pasting the local URL to the picture.
I have Access 2007 and I use to be able to Hyperlink to an object in my database 9no upgrade0 But suddenly this option is not available. What can I do?

I was wondering is anyone could help me with a problem thats been vexing me all day..
I have an Access database that has a number of Word documents stored as OLE objects. What I need to do now is create a macro within Word which, based on a few parameters, retreives these Word Docs from access and formats them into a completed document. The ordering and formating bits fine, where I'm stuck is getting at the OLE objects.
Can anyone give any advice on a possible solution?
This might be very simple but this driving me crazy... None of the objects created on my form are appearing in Form View mode but I can see all the objects in 'Form Design mode'. I checked the properties of the form and all other objects to make sure 'Visible' property is Yes. Any help to solve this is highly appretiated.

Can you please help me with this one. or if you know any way to do just let me know. thank you so much.
Here is my situation. I have a database with a table in which contains all of the names and members of our club. Every member in our club has a rank, the rank is held in a field called "rank". I also have a form which is used to add and edit the information into this table. The form that i have create is a bog standard form with nothing special on it. What i would like to be able to do is when the form loads and the information from the table populates it, i would like a picture box to hold a picture that represents there position like an avatar. I have tried doing this myself however my attempts just resulted in errors about not have the form focus. I use the code editor to do this. I know this is possible to do as i have seen it on some other projects.
If any one has any idea or hints about how i can do this please reply. As an added thing i would prefer if it was done in the code editor as the machine it has to run on has macros disabled.
I am a novice when it comes to the MS Access interface. My experience has been designing the database and then using ASP pages to query, update, etc. I am now in a new position where I have to modify a switchboard to point to other data sources (i.e. databases) who have been renamed. My problem is that when I open any of those databases all I get is a form (switchboard) that has links to reports. It appears to my novice eye that the switchboard is the only thing that exists within the "main" database and it points to other databases -- when I open those databases another switchboard comes up and I still cannot view the database objects. I hope this makes sense -- believe me, I am attempting to understand this all.
I hope someone can explain to me what's going on -- there has to be a database that I can open and see actual database objects by going to the top menu bar and selecting, "View --> Database Objects --> Tables, Queries, Forms, etc.
I want to display 8 thumbnail images at a time per form of records that matched a search critera in a form. But it seems like a form is suppose only to have one record at a time? I want to have a "next 8 thumbs"-button so it gets easy to browse the pictures.
I'm very thankful if you could help me with this! Please give me some advice.
I am looking for an easier way to confirm that all a queries that are in a database are being used by the database. I started going through each and every one and it is taking for ever!
I have tried the documenter and either I cannot understand it properly or it does not contain the information that I am looking for.
An example might be I have a query called qryOne. I want to see where it is being used so I am looking for a “list” that says
Obviously these are just made up names, but I hope you understand what I am looking for. In essence a relationship table for queries, forms and reports.
Is it possible to loop through all forms within a project and look at its controls? I was requested to change some object names to a more generic name, but I would like to find all references of the form within the Access application. Is there an easy way to do this?
I know that the MSysObjects contains the listing of all forms, but I don't know how to generically type cast a local variable to the form name listed in the table.
Does this make sense? There has to be a way to do this, but I haven't found anything in searching this forum.
We have an Access 2000 db, which has been used for some time and is split between a front and back end. We've come in today and tried to open the back-end, which contains only tables, and when it opens it's completely blank. We can't see any of the objects or the normal menu to access the tables, queries, etc. We can, however, import the tables into a new database, so they must be there.
Any idea why this has happened or how to stop it happening again.
Im unable to create an MDE file, access keeps trying and then saying that its unable to create MDE.//// Is there any other way that I can secure both my codes, forms, modules and macros from being imported into another database since I cant create the MDE file?
This may be a fairly simple answer (and I hope it is, I really do) but I'm coming up empty searching through manuals and whatever google has on the issue, so I'll toss it out here in hopes that someone can help me.
Is there a way to add a "browse" button or something similar to an Access form field intended for files (word documents mostly)? I'm developing a process management database fror my office, and while I can master the whole "right-click-insert-object" thing, it's really more than the non-technical types in my office are going to be able to muster. Appreciate any help!
I have a table with two fields. A name field where I have a bunch of unique numerical data and an object field, which contains unique pictures.
I am wondering if it is possible to create a form where I can display say ten pictures (I'm assuming as bound objects) and have each of them display a different object from a different record?
Or in other words can I have one bound object displaying a picture from one record, and a second bound object, displaying a picture from a second record, on the same form?
I have tried searching for everything and any little help would be much appreciated!!
