I'm trying to improve the dialer that i place on microsoft access forms. basically there's a command button that dials the number that is in a text box, but we have a new job that's just come in that requires numbers to be copied and pasted into the text box. these numbers have a space between the dialing code and the telephone number and i need to make the dialer check for a space and remove it before dialing.
Here's the code for the dialing buttons:-
Private Sub cmd_Dial_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmd_dial_Click
CT.MakeCall "8" & txt_telephone.Value & "#", "", False, "", "", False

I have tried to make a login screen, I have also searched for information and tried some of the examples but, I just can't get one to work.
Is there someone or somewhere where I can get information on how to build one step by step in simple easy instructions....(access 2003).
Also, how do you get access to open all the windows, tables, queries etc in full screen mode.
I have expaneded them and shut it down and then reopened it but they still want to open out of full screen mode.
Thanks, everyone has been a great help in creating my first Access program.
I want a progress bar in a form that will increase from bottom to top . The data will from Access table. The bar will start from 0 to Maxvalue. The Maxvalue will be calculated as below:
Total number of batches in the table/ No. of working days between 14072014 and 31112014 / 2
So the above calculation will define the range of a progress indicator.
And now we have to show the % percentage that means how many batches have been scanned for today. For this the following calculations will be used:
Count total batches where scandate=today and scannedby<>null
Now this will show the percentage in the bar that means hopw much work has been completed.
The progress bar should move from bottom to top when % increases.
I would like to put a message on the screen for informing the user - mostly during some procedures that might take time or when, after a warning, I want to go on with the program but without action from the user.
Msgbox is obviously not the one I'm looking for as it needs customer acknowledge. Is there a solution for this task?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a list if names, some with a middle initial and some without, that are all in one field. eg George P Wingrove or Ada Wingrove. Can I run a query that will seperate the name into two or three fields? I have tried the following in a query, but not being very successful. FirstName:Left([Name],InStr(1,[Name]," ")-1), MiddleInitialTrim(Mid([Name],InStr(1,[Name]," ")+1,InStr(InStr (1, [Name], " ")+1,[Name]," ")-InStr(1,[Name]," "))) and LastName:IIf(InStr(InStr([Name]," ")+1,[Names]," ") <>0, Right([name],Len([name])-InStr(InStr([Name]," ")+1,[Name]," ")),Right([Name],Len([Name])-InStr([Name]," ")))
Unfortunately, it puts #Error if there is no middle initial. Any way round this problem?

Is it possible to set the Tab Order to move to a subform before all the controls in the Main form have been passed through, and then come back to the Main form where one left off?
I have a form with a client name and a chargable service, a subform with products and, on the main form again, amount tendered.
Logic dictates that one select all items for which one is paying before showing how much is paid.
Right now, I go through the client info, then chargable service, amount tendered, and then anything purchased on the subform. That's kinda bass ackwards.
I'd somehow like to insert the subform's controls into the Tab Order, after chargable service and before amount tendered.
Anyone know if I can do that, if so, how?
Hi,
I have a Form that is modal and popup, and which opens without the MS Access in the background. It is like a separate window (piece of program) that runs under Windows XP.
If I move the Form on my screens (I have dual monitors) I would like that the messages that are triggered by various actions to appear on top of the form not - for example - on the other screen .
I can add more info if necessary.
Thanks for help.

I have a report with 4 sub reports. I want to center them so it looks nice.
IS there a way to easily center objects in the middle of the page?
I'm working with a DB to enter orders for picking. I have an item list that I'm linking to when entering orders, and bringing in the data from the item list such as item location etc.
It's setup right now that when I type the first couple of letters into the item field it automatically brings up the matching items and if I click enter it completes the item and brings in the other fields from the item list.
Example: If I type in 'tom' I get back 'tomato', 'tomato sauce' etc. and when I choose the right one and hit enter it fills up the rest of the required info such as item location.
What I would like it to do is have the auto complete also check for middle words.
Example: when I type 'alm' it returns 'almonds', 'almond milk', but don't return 'container almonds' or 'container roasted almonds' etc.
Hello all,
I have this splash screen, which welcomes all the users. It has an OK command button that exits the screen, and a checkbox that says "Do not show this screen again". I still do not have the code behind the checkbox. Thus I was wondering if there is a way where I could entirelly close or "get rid" of the splash screen until the user loggs in again. Because right now there is no code behind it, so everybody that checks it and click OK, leaves the screen. But they can still open it, if they select the "splash form".
I have a field that contains 12 numbers. I need to replace the middle four numbers with a character so that the entire number is not readable. How do I do that?
