Modules & VBA :: Trying To Convert Send Key Command To Something Newer
Jul 12, 2015
We have a ton of Access 97 DBs I've been asked to "fix". Since moving to Windows 7 some of them have been giving Error70 comands, which I've narrowed down to Sendkey not playing nicely with Windows 7. Anyway, I was able to fix it for one user by turning UAC off. Not my preferred way to operate, but it's a stopgap until I can get this mess sorted out.
Ok, here's the code. This is an event procedure that is tied to a date field where staff are to enter a date in MM/DD/YYYY format. For some reason there is no tab order anywhere on this DB so they have to click to enter. In the past they had to make sure that they clicked at the left most M in MM to make the entry.
It appears that this Sendkey is the culprit here. Is there anyway I can safely remove that w/o breaking something? I cannot get sole access to this DB as it's in use pretty much 24/7 until the 11pm backup for the server it resides on. It is Access 97. I was thinking of just pulling the macro from that field but then again I am not an Access person by any means,

I have created a form and housed in the form is a combo box that pulls info from managers I work with. I want to create a command button that I can click to send them an email. I have their information tabled and then have also converted that table into a form. I have their email address I just need to know how to properly code the command. I have no visual basic experience. I have had classes where I've coded in C++ and HTML but very limited.
I have a database in Access 2007 - 2010 that I push out to a couple of different co-wokers.One of my co-workers is using MS Office 2013 and the buttons I have on the forms and reports look inflated.Is there anyway to prevent this in Design mode so what I see in my version is the same as the new version of Access?
I have an mde database originally created in Access 2003. Will I be able to open it in Access 2007?
(I ask because this mde file was originally created in Access 2002, and wouldn't open in A03. We had to track down the creator and get her to resend a new mde file that was 03 compatible. Are we going to run into the same problem after the next upgrade?)
My table occasionally gets a second record added for the same person. What is the easiest way to update the new record with the non-zero fields from the older record, then delete the older record? There is a unique id field as well as a timestamp, so knowing which is older isn't a problem. Is there an easy way to do this?
I have Access db's that were originally created in Access 2003, I have upgraded them no problem to accdb and am using them in Access 2010.
When I create a new form and add a button it is rounded/shaded/white/blue etc - looks good.
When I add a button to an existing form, or reformat the existing form buttons (back colour Accent 1, Lighter 40%, Use Theme Yes etc) it remains an old style button (unrounded, solid colour etc).
How to convert old style buttons to new style buttons ..
I have the code for sending an email but I only want to send a single email when there are records in a query and only when the database is first opened.
I hadn't considered this in my design so what structural requirements would it require if any?
I currently have a code set up which sends an attachment from a drive on my computer to all the email addresses in a certain query. I would like to change the code so that I can add a button that will allow me to send an email with a specific attachment depending on their individual code in a table, e.g each person will receive a specific attachment. At the moment, the attachments are saved with the same file name as the person's specific code.The code I am currently using is:
Private Sub Command9_Click() Dim MyDb As DAO.Database Dim rsEmail As DAO.Recordset Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef Dim prm As DAO.Parameter Dim strEmail As String Dim strMsg As String Dim oLook As Object
Since my old DB had hyperlink (web pages) either starting with http:// or not, and the users were complaining that they couldn't easily edit the field, I converted all the fields to text. Then I tried the following code on doubleclick:
Dim WebLink As String If Me.WebPage2 <> "http//" & "*" Then WebLink = "Http://" & Me.WebPage2 Else WebLink = Me.WebPage2 End If Debug.Print WebLink Application.FollowHyperlink WebLink, , True
The above works fine if there is no http:// but if there is one already in the text, then I get run time error 5 that it cannot locate the page. On checking what is happening, the code is adding http:// again even if it already there.
I use this to send email msgs through gmail, found it on the net somewhere, adapted a bit and it works.
Code: Private Function fSendGmail() As Boolean 'Returns True if No Errors are Generated On Error GoTo Err_ErrorHandler fSendGmail = True Const conStrPrefix As String = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/" Const conCdoSendUsingPort As Integer = 2
[Code] ....
Err_ErrorHandler: If Err.Number <> 0 Then fSendGmail = False etc, etc End Function 'fSendGmail
I'd like to send report attached to this as pdf or rtf. How should I go about it. I know how to create pdf and save it.(DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "My Report", acFormatPDF, strPath, True) But where do I attach that here? Is it necessary to save the file first?
I use a macro that attaches a document automatically to an e-mail address ready to send this report is governed by a query of which the criteria is " loss order number " this is in a pdf format of which I need if possible
The problem I have is the same pdf file keeps attaching itself to the e-mail no matter which loss order number I select. The reason I think is because the report is called NCR so it is not changing from the previous one. What I think can solve it but not sure and don't know how to do is get the " loss order number " within the report name.
If I just send the report to a file direct it does work as I am prompted for a file name
Can the loss order number get into the file name within a macro/vba
I have a button when pressed that it sends an email from lotus notes and inputs relevant text etc, however I seem to be struggling on how to have an attachment sent with the email. So everytime the button is pressed it will attach a word document.
I have two databases, both have mysql backened and access frontend.
In first database, I'd like to access the second database, check if that person has an entry in the second database and then fetch that data into the first database. To make it easier, data come from different tables (though I'd probably access only one entry in each table)
Not sure where to start, the only idea I have is to link tables from both databases into the frontend ad then it's kinda easy (would have to rename the tables).
A client wants to e-mail newsletters using a non-default Outlook account. The code below does everything the client needs except setting the SendUsingAccount. In debug I can see that the correct account is assigned, yet all of my testing results in e-mails where the From line is the default account. The test setup uses my own isolated SMTP server, so when I look at the e-mails sent the sender is the default account. The default account's Sent folder shows the sent mail, which is not what we want.
Code: Sub prepEmail() Dim frm As Form, startDate As Date, endDate As Date Dim rs As DAO.Recordset, strSQL As String, intNewsLetter As Integer Dim rsEmail As DAO.Recordset, rsNewsletters As DAO.Recordset Dim OlApp As Object, ol As Object Dim olMail As Object, olAcct, olAcctTemp
I'm using VBA and XML to send emails from my db to a legitimate mail server (Mandrill).
The mail server will accept any number of receipients in one go.
I'm using an SQL string to build up my recipients into one large string (phil@test.com; fred@test.com etc). This works well as it builds them list at about 50 per second.
The issue I have is that I get an error saying 'Too many recipents'.
I have an Access 2010 database which has a table with several fields with the Hyperlink data type. Some of these hyperlinks reference files stored in a SharePoint database. I am relatively new to using hyperlinks. The task is to insert those hyperlinks into an email using VBA so that the recipient can just click on them to view the documents.
I have no problems with using VBA to create emails or to add attachments. My issue is with adding hyperlinks to the body of the email.
I have a several templates in outlook 2003 for my charity work.
All is OK if I send the odd one now and again, but the workload is increasing with more and more at any one time. However having seen various posts on here, I was thinking I could set something similar in Access as well as keeping track of the payments & deposits more easily.
I am fine with to, cc,bcc, body, subject etc, but what I need to do is SendUsingAccount, but 2003 does not have this property, it started with 2007.
As well as sending on that particular account I also need the signature linked to that account.
I could add that signature by code if I can get the correct account and for some reason the signature is not added.
I tried using SendOnBehalfOfName which works as far as the correct email address is used, but still uses my default a/c.
As an aside, my Outlook session would always be open, so I will use GetObject and not CreateObject method, but would like not to have the warning dialogue in Outlook pop up all the time.
the code below sends 3 reports to a folder that the vba creates if needed. I would like to change it so the 3 reports go to different folders and creates a folder with the customer name in each of the below folders if needed at present it looks table with one folder address is as I dont know how to make it look up the 3 different records in that table so I would like to just put the 3 folder address in the code
I am working on a database that will notify technicians if they have orders that have been placed on back order. The technician can enter two kinds of orders, one for a specific job and one to replenish the stock in his truck. My manager has asked that I create separate reports for each kind of order and e-mail them to the technician. Is there a way to program Access to send an e-mail with two separate attachments?
I would also like the e-mail to send without the user needing to click the Send button. Is that possible? The database will be sending twenty plus e-mails each time the button is pressed, and I would like to avoid needing the user to click the Send button that many times.
I have this code (below) that loops through a recordset and sends appointments. It executes the queries correctly and sends all appointments in the table, but sends them only to the contacts listed in the first record of the query. How do I get it to loop the contact details?
Code: Private Sub SchedFollowUp() Dim rsFollow As DAO.Recordset Set rsFollow = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("SELECT * FROM Follow_Up WHERE HR_Approved = True AND Added_to_Outlook = False AND Cancelled = False;", dbOpenDynaset) Dim rsEmployee As DAO.Recordset
With the code below , I send the report: “ESERT4H”, in email body. How I could add yet another report on the same body of the email ?
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "ESERT4H", "HTML(*.html)", "D:Access empESERT4H.html", False, "", 0, acExportQualityScreen Dim Out As Outlook.Application Dim NS As Outlook.NameSpace Dim Folder As MAPIFolder Dim Mens As MailItem
