Progress = Progress + 1
Me.lblProgress.Caption

I have a text box in a form, in which users enter updates. I would like that text to become the caption on a label in a printable report. How would I write the VBA to do this?

I have n horizontal labels named Label_1 to Label_n. I'd like to assign values to the label captions by using a loop.
Something like:
For i = 1 To n
Set Label_i.Caption = i
End
However, this doesn't work. Message "Object required".
Any suggestions?

On a form I have multiple labels. In the Click event of all these labels I would like to call a generic function for futher processing. For this processing however, I need the caption of the label the user clicked on. How do I determine this caption?

I'm trying to change a label caption in a report depending the value of a numeric field.
=IIf([55]=8,[Label176].[Caption]="Spring Term",[Label176].[Caption]="Summer Term")
[55] is the numeric field.
I get a type mismatch error.

I have some code on a button that opens a form and changes the caption of a label:
Code:
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmRepair", , , , , , "CancelNo"
Forms![frmRepair].Form.[lblmain].Caption = "Missing Parts"
This code works well and frmRepair opens with the updated label caption. The original value was "Return/repair Information"
A few other things need to change on frmRepair depending on this caption as well as the values of some other fields, so I use the following code in the onload event (although I later tried the onopen even)
Code:
'Disable labels button if there is no RMA and the item is a repair
MsgBox Me.lblmain.Caption
If Me.lblmain.Caption = "Return/Repair Information" Then
Me.txtRMA.SetFocus
MsgBox Me.txtRMA.Text
[Code] ....
However, I cannot get this to work as the "if" statement always returns "Return/Repair information" and not the modified caption. The message box confirms that this is the case.
I suspect that this has to do with the point in time that the frmRepair loads or opens and when my code enters the modified values.

All,
I am trying to get the caption text for a field instead of the raw database name. The raw database name can be extracted using the Fields Collection:
Fields.Item(w).Name
Is there a way to retrieve the caption, as this makes more sense to the user?
For example, instead of the field name "numEmp", I want to retrieve "Number of Employees".
I need this because I am creating a form at runtime (on the fly).
Thanks,
Sal

I'm trying to customise the error message for Input Mask Violations, so that it references the control where the error has occured, rather than just being a generic error message.
I can make this work using the code below:
Private Sub Form_Error(DataErr As Integer, Response As Integer)
Const INPUTMASK_VIOLATION = 2279
If DataErr = INPUTMASK_VIOLATION Then
MsgBox "Please check that the information you have added in the " + Screen.ActiveControl.Name + " field is in the appropriate format."
Response = acDataErrContinue
End If
End Sub
BUT, all my field names are shortened e.g. Mobile Number = MobileNo, so I want to use the caption property instead. I assumed I could just change it to "Screen.ActiveControl.Caption". But this doesn't work at all!

I use a timer based event that shuts down the frontends after some idle time.
1. How to disable the timer as it causes some weird bahaviours while editing the code? is shuting down the hidden form enough?
2. Is there a way to add regular maintenance intervals, i.e. every wednesday at 20.00.? how?

Ok, I've run into two serious problems in testing, and another question that I'm hoping you guys can
help me solve. Below my questions is the code used for making the search query/email program.
Problem #1: In testing, this search program only is working for me for new data. Any data that I had
in the database prior to implimenting the program will not move past the search stage. In other words, I
will do a search, it will find the emails and bring them up in a box, I hit "OK" and it gets hung up and won't move on
to opening up a new Email with the addresses implemented. However if I enter new data in the database, say with a weird
name so its only bringing up the new entry and no old entry, it works fine and opens up the new email.
Problem #2: Items I would like to search like check boxes. Say I have a check box "Donor", this is listed in the database
as a 1 or 0. I can't have my boss searching 1 or 0. Is there a way to change this to, say, being recorded in the DB
as a Yes or No. That way he would check to search "Donor" and type Yes in the search box and this would search the DB
"Donor" column for "Yes" and bring up the results.
New Question: My boss and I reviewed the form as it is so far yesterday. He was asking if I could add a Print Labels option
in there. I'm wondering instead of adding another seperate search box and all that mess for a labels search print, can I rather
add two check boxes, one labeled "Print Labels" and the other labeled "Email". What this would do is depending on the check box
you selected it would either run the search and email like we have it, or clicking the other check box would run the search and print
labels.

i want to make a condition that if an OLE object of mine is empty then the label won't be visible. (visible=no)
The reason i want it is that the ;label is placed inside the OLE object frame, and when i fill the ole object i want that the label will disappear

Hello,
Is there a way to make the text in a label smaller than size 8?
I need to put some text on a form, but it's too large for the limited amount of space I have.
Thank you.

I have a text label that I would like to have vertical instead of horizontal. In the properties box, I go to the other tab and set 'Vertical' to yes and the text rotates. Except it rotates 90 degrees clockwise. (The text starts at the upper right corner and reads down, you have to tilt your head to the right to read it.) This seems the wrong direction to me and to my office mate - all the tables we've seen with vertical text has the text rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise (text starting from the lower left corner and reads up, you have to tilt you head to the left to read it.)
Is there any way I can make the text rotate counterclockwise instead of clockwise? I really don't want to create many little graphics.
Thanks

Does anyone know how to create a text box inside of a label box in a report? I need to create a report that mirrors a memo format. In the report, I need to type a label ("Total score is __ out of __.") where the __ spaces are calculatedtext boxes based on a table. Thanks.

How does one separate a text box and label in MS Access 2010? They seem to travel together side-by-side. I want to put one on top of the other.
I am using MS Access 2010. Also. I want to put one of them in the header and the other in the body of the table.

I'm running Access 2003 and my question relates to delivery notes that are produced for drivers as reports. These delivery notes have a blank payment box for the driver to complete if the customer pays upon delivery.
As more and more customers are prepaying by credit cards, I'd like this payment box to be automatically filled with a "PAID" text which will let the driver know the order has already been paid for.
The delivery note is produced from an "Orders" table which has a "Paid" field whose value is automatically set to "Yes" when the order has been paid for.
I was hoping to be able to place a "PAID" label on the report which is only visible when the Paid field of the underlying query is Yes.
As things are at the moment I cannot see any way to put any conditional statement onto this Text/Label. The only options for the "Is Visible" property of the text are Yes or No.

I have a report that displays on a continuous style report. What courses the employee have been on and when they expire
right I have field call expirydate and another call dayover showing the number of days till that course has expired also I have made a label called Expired1
now what I'm trying to do.....
if the expirydate has passed I want the expired1 label to be visible and dayover field to become invisible
I have tried
Code:
Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
If Me.Expirydate < Date Then
Me.expired1.Visible = True
Me.DaysOver.Visible = False
End If
If Me.Expirydate > Date Then
Me.expired1.Value = False
Me.DaysOver.Value = True
End If
I have also tried the code on current event on the report
now my problem if one of the course has expired it will show the label called Expired1 but on all the records but I only want it to display on the record that has expired and leave the daysover text box visible if course has not expired
