I'm trying to open a folder based on a BIN nr. This folder could be in a main folder that has diferent subfolder. As there where differnt naming used to create the folderes, one of the things they have always is the BIN nr. It alwasy start with a unique number and maybe I could use it to scan the subfolders and open that one that the BIN nr is equal as in the field BIN.
Now we have serveral 1000th of folders and finding them takes time.
I have the code below and I want it to open a file from my documents folder. The only problem is that every computers path is different to this folder. Any easy way to work around and open a file in My Documents without the full path?
I want to eliminate the part of the path in red and make it universal because computers will have a different number.

I've been trying to search for all picture files in my documents and copy them to a folder on the desktop. I found this and it work great for searching however I'm having trouble getting the copy to work. [URL] ....
Code:
Dim colFiles As New Collection
RecursiveDir colFiles, "C:Photos", "*.jpg", True
Dim vFile As Variant
For Each vFile In colFiles
Debug.Print vFile
Next vFile
Code:
I replaced the debug.print vfile with my copy function. I've tried copyfile but it needs to specify the destination with the file name. I tried using the FSO filecopy method and can't get it to work (keep getting a compile error "Expected =") I feel the hard part is done and this part should be simple.

I have a MS access db with a report that displays a list of students with a pic of their face on the side.
The pics are linked to a folder thats inside the folder where the .accdb file is stored.
The accdb is often moved around, but when it does, all the links become broken and the images are no longer displayed on the list.
How can i adjust the link path so that regardless of where the accdb is moved, the links remain valid?
I am using ms2007 and also its not a networked area but rather a bunch of standalone computers.
I have a very large Access application and use a hidden "main switchboard" to store data such as the current customer ID. Prior to the advent of tempvars, I embedded a key control into many query's underlying combo boxes, list boxes and forms criteria:
"Forms![main switchboard]![currentcustomerid].
The problem arises when the user quits the application on with forms using this in their underlying query(ies). As far as I can tell, the application closes forms in the order in which they were opened, so the "main switchboard" closes first. Then, for some reason, the current form has a requery and the user is presented with a prompt to enter the parameter "forms![main switchboard]![currentcustomerid]. I tested and found I could replace the criteria reference to a tempvar to "fix" the problem. I wonder if there would be a way to open every query in design view and do a search and replace on the criteria statement.
I'm having problems creating a second subfolder in the main folder.
The main folder is used to keep inside the reviews of clients inside.
The code I have now, will only create a main folder if it does not exist and then a subfolder with the BIN nr, type review and date. If the client would have a diferent ones and in diferent years. So if it has first "Prototype Model", the next one could be "Prototype Review". The part of the code that checks if the main folder exist works, but how to let the code create in the main folder the second review subfolder? Please see below code I managed so far:
Code:
Private Sub btn_Create_Folder_Click() 'XXXXXXXXXX working onXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Dim path1 As String
Dim path2 As String
path1 = "C:Test_FolderMedium" & Me.BIN & "_" & RTrim(Me.LE_Name) & ""
path2 = "C:Test_FolderHigh" & Me.BIN & "_" & RTrim(Me.LE_Name) & ""
[Code] ...
How to have the code test both of them?

I have a Table Sales - that lists customer and order information
Most of the customers are new - is there a way to populate Customer Name Table with a new entry each time a new customer is input into the Sales Tale
(Without having to add the custome to Customer Name Table - then going to Sales Order)
OR
Failing that - is there a way to use a list box that points to Customer Name Table (and if it doesn't find the one you want, will allow you toadd a new record) In the SAME form as you use to add to Sales Table.
So:
Date (textbox linking to form.Sales) Customer Name (List Box linking to form.CustomerName + adding the info to form.Sale)
I have a DB set up with a debtors table (Customers) and a Customer Contacts table, I was thinking of combining these two tables into one.Most of the Debtors are companies, but a few are actual people. With the current setup, i need to have both a debtor and a customer in two different tables, but with exactly the same data.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to automate a process of selecting a set of file/s and move them in a folder. When I click on a button, it should open a current folder that is setup in the code.
Lets say that I have a folder C:documents est, and very time I click on the button, it should open the dialog box with that path so I can select the files from another folder, drag them there and they will be saved in that folder.
This will form part of wider automation that will send an email stating that those file/s where placed in that folder.
I have in the same form where the button is placed, 3 check boxes that needs to be passed to the email as well that one or all the files where placed in the folder.
Please advise how to attach documents within a database. I have Office XP (2002).

I'm trying to programme a button in one of my forms to open up a word document as read-only. I've written the code to open up the Word application (before I found the button which did it for me! :( ) but I think I need to add one or two more lines so that word knows where the document is I want and opens it up - any ideas what these lines are?
Real sorry for the trouble - any help would be most appreciated! Thanks guys and girls.
I'm new to Access and I'm trying to figure out how to use Access to populate documents. I assume I would create a form asking for information, and then Access would populate document(s) using the information.
For example, I need this information plugged into multiple Word Documents (or I guess I could combine all the word documents into a single PDF)
Name: John Smith
Project Number: 12345
Duration: 120 Days
Summary: This work would include...
...etc.
And then the program would use the information from the form to fill in an already created template, sometime using the same piece of information more than once:
_____________________ has a project number of _________________________. _________________________ has a duration of _______________________. The duration of ____________________ includes days associated with project number ____________________. The summary is __________________________________________________ _____________.
The template may go on for hundreds of pages, but the information from the form would still be used throughout most of the pages.
Is it possible to scan documents directly in to MS Access and store them in a field in a table please??
If so how??
Thanks for your help

Is it possible to link Access to Word documents?
I wish to create a button on a form that when clicked it opens the word document according to what have been selected in the combo box in the form.
thanks :o
Because of certain design considerations and the amount of data I'm maintaining, I have chosen to use tabbed documents rather than floating windows or subforms.
The hierarchy is supposed to be a person who is categorized as either a client, family member, donor, etc. Further, a client may use one or more services. In the example, our client uses Specialized Home Care. However, the tabs are intuitively out of order: the people tab is left-most, followed by the Specilaized Home Care tab, and lastly the Client tab. It should be People, People:Client, People:Client:Service. If a person uses a lot of our services, there will be separate People:Client:Service tabs and the People:Client tab will scroll off to the right. I'd like Access to order them properly but see no way to do it.when the forms are opened, it's people first followed by the high-level classification (i.e. Client), and the lastly the specific Client:Service tabs. I would expect Access to open and display them left to right, but, as you can see, it doesn't.
I was wondering if there is an awesome way out there somewhere to take a record and export it into a word document, like a template and have the fields go where you want them to?
