Modules & VBA :: Creating Shapes In PPT From Access 2010
Nov 26, 2013
Here is my project: For a duty plan the employees are assigned to positions in a certain area.
For example:
Name. Position. Description. Map
Brown. 1. backdoor. 1
Miller. 3. frontdoor. 1
Norman. 4. left wing. 2
Hoover. 6. right door. 2
....
Now I want to show the positions within circles on the maps, with the names within dynamically, as the employees change every week.
The coordinates of the positions do not change, but not every position is needed in every duty plan.
So, my idea is to draw all possible shapes on all possible maps and make them visible or not depending on the assignement.
The duty plan is my table in access and looping through all records I would like to fill the needed shapes.
All maps are on slides (40 slides and about 400 positions) and should be filled accordingly.
I can open my presentation, although I only could do it by late binding ( a reference to ppt 14 obj. Lib fails with an error!! - why??) but I cannot any solution how to loop through the records and do the job.

I've lost two shapes in a worksheet, and can't find them because they are formatted with no fill and no borders.
There are a number of other shapes in the sheet which are formatted and so are visible.
How I can find my two runaway shapes? It's important because they have macros assigned, and so a user may find himself clicking on them unexpectedly, with unfortunate consequences.

I am working in Access 2010, trying to create a report with a pie chart. The pie chart is based on a query (called Count Pie) that calculates three values:
% IS
% NetInf
% IS + NetInf
I go into Create, Report Design and get a blank report in Design View. I select Chart from the Controls tab and follow the Wizard to specify the data source.
I get a pie chart with the right title (Count Pie). I double-click on the chart to open the report Datasheet and insert the correct value names. My pie chart in Design View looks correct. It has the right title and legend, and shows three slices of the pie corresponding to the three values.
I save the report, and go to Print Preview, where I get a pie chart that looks like a single circle; it has no legend, and doesn't show the three values.
Do I need to have the Access 2010 application re-installed?

I am using access 2010 and am trying to create a dynamic search like the one google uses, it will feature a drop down that will populate with results but when its not in use the drop down is not shown.
I'm looking to add a menu system to the form its self so that the users will be able to do certain functions. third image is what I'm looking to create with the menu bar at the top of the screen.

Is it possible to make a path or a shape in access? I'd like to do some graphical representation of some data and change colors of the shapes based on given values that would correlate to the shapes.

I have played with this problem for 3 days and have come close but not quite solved it. My problem, I have several drivers delivering several orders, the orders are named 101, 102 and so on lets say to 150. Due to locations of the drivers, some deliver more orders then others. I want to be able to create a report that looks like
"Driver #1 101 - 106"
"Driver #2 107 - 110"
Driver 1 delivered 6 orders. Driver #2 delivered 4 orders and so on.
I have tried the 'count" which gives me the number of orders per driver but having trouble figure out the design of the calculation in the query.

I am trying to create a database to manage IT assets, most of the structure is done, I'm now trying to get the details done.
The issue I am currently trying to tackle is to get a control button on one form to create a new record in the sub form that sits in the main form via another pop-up form.
So I have :
>PeripheralsViewForm - that has 4 control buttons (Edit Quantity, Edit Description,Add an Item and Exit)
>> PeripheralsSubForm - (Datasheet) which is referenced to PeripheralsQuery
The Edit Quantity and Edit Description open a separate form which allows the user to update only the quantity or description respectively (I have done it this way rather than allowing edits in the data sheet as I feel that it is too easy to hit a key incorrectly and overwrite data in the datasheet view) Both of these functions work perfectly (to my amazement) - I am using the id field in the subform to link to the pop-up form which then has unbound text input boxes, which I then write back to the subform.
e.g from edit button on click event: DoCmd.OpenForm "perquantform", , , " ID=" & Form.PeripheralsSubForm!ID and then from the pop-up form "perquantform" on the "Exit & Save" button I have :
Forms!peripheralsViewForm.PeripheralsSubForm.Form! Quantity = Me.newquant DoCmd.Close acForm, "perquantform", acSaveYes
This allows the user to select the record in the datasheet form and then click either the change quantity or description button.Also also the other reason I did it this way was because I just couldn't get the subform to requery when I had the two edit popups linked to the table or query.
The problem now is that when I click on the "Add an Item" button, it overwrites whatever record is currently selected !
The code I have is this:
From the "Add an Item" button on click action:
DoCmd.GoToRecord , Forms!peripheralsViewForm!PeripheralsSubForm.Form! , acNewRec
DoCmd.OpenForm "addperform"
And from the form "addperform" - "Save & Exit" button on click action:
Forms!peripheralsViewForm.PeripheralsSubForm.Form! PerType = Me.pertypedrop
Forms!peripheralsViewForm.PeripheralsSubForm.Form! PerMake = Me.permakedrop
Forms!peripheralsViewForm.PeripheralsSubForm.Form! PerModel = Me.newmodel
Forms!peripheralsViewForm.PeripheralsSubForm.Form! PerDescription = Me.newdescription
Forms!peripheralsViewForm.PeripheralsSubForm.Form! Quantity = Me.newquantity
DoCmd.OpenForm "PeripheralsViewForm"
DoCmd.Close acForm, "addperform"
--------------------------------------
the line "DoCmd.GoToRecord , Forms!peripheralsViewForm!PeripheralsSubForm.Form! , acNewRec" is what I have added to try to solve the overwrite issue, but when I run this it comes up with the error :
"runtime error 2498 - An expression you entered is the wrong data type for one of the arguments"
I have put this line in the "addperform" exit action and it comes up with the same sort of error.
Using Access 2010.

I am trying to create a columnar report that relies on information that are expressions in various queries. Unfortunately, I can't seem to create them in one query because the criteria is mutually exclusive. I used the report wizard to start the report based on the single expression in the first query. Now I want to start adding the other data but I can't seem to get it to work. All I really want to do is include fields that have the have the value, which is already summed, from the other query. When I try that I get error messages like "you tried to execute a query that does not include the specified expression 'expressionName' as part of an aggregate function' and it just goes further downhill from there. What is the easiest way to get this simple values into the report? Is there a way I can create a field in the report that uses a SQL statement for just that field so I don't have to have the report linking to 50 different queries?

I am using an Access 2003 database to create a Word report that contains Graphs. We have since moved to Office 2010, and now the vba code will not select the graph and populate the data, i presume this is because the data is no longer in a datasheet but Excel itself.

I am trying to create a Cascading Combo Box for my Form in Access 2010. I ahve written the code:
Private Sub Combo11_AfterUpdate()
cboCombo13.RowSource = "Select TblAcc.SubFamily " & _
"FROM me.TblAcc " & _
"WHERE me.TblAcc.Family = '" & cboCombo13.Value & "' " & _
"ORDER BY me.TblAcc.SubFamily;"
End Sub
But keep getting the same "Run time error message 424: Object required"
And when I define the error it says "Identifier under cursor is not recognized" (the yellow arrow comes up and is pointing at the "ORDER BY" line.
I would like Combo Box 13 to give me the SubFamilies of the certain Families choosen from Combo Box 11. (Each Family has different SubFamilies). But if I ignore the error, Combo Box 11 lets me choose a Family and Combo Box 13 gives me options to choose any SubFamily in my DB.

I have just upgraded from Access 2003 to 2010. Now I'm trying to relearn some of the small things I used to be able to. In 2003, I could just have a table highlighted and select "Insert, Query". It would then open a query design with that table. Is this possible to do this in 2010? Or do you have to open query design then add the table manually?

I have the following code which successfully opens the dialog box with filters however when I add a function with an Excel import, the filters do not work at all (no files are shown even though they exist in the directory that's opened within the dialog box). If I manually type in the filter (i.e. *.x) it still shows the files.The function at the bottom was provided by cheekybuddha from another form, I'd be lost on getting the Excel file imported into Access.Here's the VBA code (the Function is also included at bottom):
Code:
Private Sub Command0_Click()
On Error GoTo PROC_ERR
Dim strpathtofile As String
Dim strTable As String, strBrowseMsg As String
Dim strFilter As String, strInitialDirectory As String
Dim blnHasFieldNames As Boolean

I have an application in Access 2003. It uses VBA to open an Excel file. The file has one tab for charts and one for data. The program counts how many charts needs to be created, one per project. It then will place 4 charts per tab, creating as many chart tabs as necessary, keep one data tab. The program then writes the data and links the data to the corresponding chart. It will also write legends, and scale the charts. This all works fine under Access 2003/Excel 2003.The error I get is "Application-defined error or object defined error".The line that gives me the error is: Set chCopy = xlsheet.ChartObjects(idx).I am using the Multi-Chart option frmChartType = 1
Now I'm moving to the Office 2010 world. It is not working. Below is the code I run to do the magic. I guess something is happening in Excel 2010 that is different from 2003.I found when I comment out the error line, and other lines dependent on chCopy it creates the charts, but all the charts are pictures and not charts!!
Code:
Public Sub GenerateChart()
' Generate an Excel chart
Dim db As Database
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Dim xlapp As Object

The following code browse from one form to another and shows the record details I select in the first form which is what I need, however, the problem is it only shows that record and will not allow me go to next or previous records when pressing NEXT or PREVIOUS by saying this is the First Record or this is the Last Record.
Anyway to modify it to allow me navigate to other records.
Dim txtJobNumber As Integer
Private Sub Job_Number_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
'Store Job_Number in txtJobNumber variable and display
message to show value.
txtJobNumber = [Job_Number]

I opened a 2007 Access db in Access 2010. This DB worked perfectly in Access 2007, but when I opened it in 2010 my recordset.recordcount no longer works.
This is what I have:
rsGetInst was previously defined
Dim intInstCount as integer
Dim rsGetInst As New ADODB.Recordset
rsGetInst.CursorLocation = adUseClient
rsGetInst.CursorType = adOpenDynamic
rsGetInst.LockType = adLockOptimistic
rsGetInst.open "Select * from tblInstruction where CustID = " & intCustomerID
intInstCount = rsGetInst.recordcount
At this point a get a "type Mismatch" error, and it is happening in all my recordsets recordcount.
Is there a command or reference that needs to be change when using Access 2010. When I compared the references the only difference is that in 2007 we reference Microsoft Access 12.0 Object Library and in 2010 is Microsoft Access 14.0 Object Library.

I have always had solid read access to the Windows registry running on Windows XP with Access 2007. I am utilizing code from here in a separate VBA Module to obtain access to the Windows registry:
"Change registry settings in VBA"
[URL]
On Windows 7 x64 / Access 2010 x86, I am seeing a 0 value in lngKeyHandle. Also, m_lngRetVal has a value of 2 after the RegOpenKey LOC.
Code:
' --------------------------------------------------------------
' Query the key path
' --------------------------------------------------------------
m_lngRetVal = RegOpenKey(lngRootKey, strRegKeyPath, lngKeyHandle)
' --------------------------------------------------------------
' If no key handle was found then there is no key. Leave here.
' --------------------------------------------------------------
If lngKeyHandle = 0 Then
regQuery_A_Key = vbNullString
m_lngRetVal = RegCloseKey(lngKeyHandle) ' always close the handle
Exit Function
End If
I have verified that I have the key successfully in the registry... installed via the .reg file that works on Windows XP / Access 2007 systems.

I have a split db with tables in the back end and my forms, reports, code etc. in the front end.
I encrypted the back end with a password. That worked fine.
I deleted and relinked my tables to the encrypted back end. That worked fine as well.
I have a function that will disable the shift key bypass. If I run that in my front end db then I can't save it as an accde because I can't get to the HOME screen. If I save it as an accde first then I can't run my 'disable shift key bypass' function because I can't get to the modules!
How can I secure a split Access 2010 database so that the user cannot execute shift bypass on the front end or make any changes to the code?

Previously in Excel / Access 97 / 2003 I made a little tool that would search for files in specified locations - I modified the code so that it would search for files based on what was entered in cells.
I believe a lot of the old code doesn't work in Access 2010 and it seems like a lot of the old file searching code I used to use no longer works.
Is there code available that searches a directory and lists results?
