Hi,
Anyone know in microsoft access 97 is it possible to remove the close button (top right hand corner) when a form is maximised?
Thanks.
As the title says, ctrl-W works on all my other forms but not on the one which has Pop-up set to "Yes".

Can this be done?

Hi all,
I have a main form which is open in a maximized window (which i want to leave as it is), i have a command button which opens a form, now i want the form to open up as the size of a box i have created in the form, without altering the size of the first form. Also is it possible to move the 2nd form to the bottom left hand corner of my screem.
This is code i have so far does minimize window to what i want it to but also restores first form, which i want t leave maximized:
Code: Me.InsideHeight = Me.Box15.HeightMe.InsideWidth = Me.Box15.WidthDoCmd.Restore
Thanks in advance for any help,

Hello,
I am a researcher creating critical editions of ancient texts by collating readings from several manuscripts (i.e. different mss all contain minor differences). I create my edition in Word and use footnotes to record the variant readings. I also have a database - created from the word file - in which I can add context to each variant e.g. decisions, history etc. So I have a word file containing the text and its variants uniquely identified with a footnote reference and a database with one table and a record per variant and where the variant records are also unique and share the same number as the footnote. I would very much like to be able to open a window on my variant form which displays the word file at the correct variant (i.e. footnote reference) location. This will make it easier for me to record my assessments of the variant in the dbase while looking at where the variant occurs in the text. Obviously I don't need to see the footnote window as I have this info in the dbase.
I haven't got a clue how to do this and would appreciate any pointers.
Many thanks in advance,
Tim

Hello,
I was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of how to have a form open to the record it was on when it was closed. I know I've seen how to do this before, but I've spent some time searching and I can't seem to find it again.
Thanks,
Eric
I am tying to create a cmd btn called "Report" that when clicked opens a form [quick report] in dialog window. I have that done easy enough. But what I want is if that form [quick report] is open, and you click the same button "Report" for it to then close the form.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWho can tell me how to minimize Access window while it's form is on top of other open windows (e.g. other applications which are maximized like Excel). By using acCmdAppMinimize command, only the Access window is minimized and if other applications are maxmized, they will be on top. So is there any vba solution to do what I explained?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHey guys,
I figured out to maximize a window when a report is opened, but now I want to restore the window sizes when this report is closed.
I think I kind of know what to do with the DoCmd.Restore and something about OnClose, but I'm lost in the syntax. If someone could help me out by giving me the syntax and where to put this code that would be fantastic :)
I have just noticed when I open one of my forms . the database window becomes inactive and I cannot open another , form , report etc.

I have a database that uses a switchboard with a close button that runs several instructions before it exits. The problem is that some users have access to the database window and I need to prevent them from closing the database by hitting the X in the upper right.
Anyone know how to do this?
I've a custom menu bar from which I can choose any of my forms. However when you choose a new form the old form stays open, sloppy in my mind. Is there any way i can choose the new form from the menu bar & close the previous form? I've tried to close on deactivate, w/ no luck.

HI:
I have a db with about 70 tables in it. I am trying to see the relationships among say, 40 of them, all at once. I like the view of the relationship window but: I cant scale it, select multiple tables and reposition them, use the mouse wheel to move it (only the window sliders), and, I have to click on a table entry to allow me to reposition the table (should'nt I just have to click on the table outline itself?). This is a really awakward thing to use. Also, I can't seem to 'Shrink to fit' the relationship window when I print it.
Is it cockpit error or just really broken?
Any way to make it easier to work with?
(or, did I choose the wrong DB tool for the job?)
Thanks for your suggestions.

I've tried to add some basic login (not really security) to my database so that when a different name is entered into the login box a different form is opened.
I got this working but the login form stays in foreground and I can't click anything behind it and can't get to the design view to change any properties of anything.
I've also changed this login form to the startup item so it always loads when i start the database.
Is there way to get back to the design view or do i have to start again from my backup?
I have created two table in my database listed below
tblEmployee
EmployeeID{Primary Key, Auto Number}
FirstName
LastName
PositionTitle
tblWorkHistory
EmployeeID {Foreign Primary Key}
Organization {Primary Key}
Position
StartDate
EndDate
I am creating a one to many relationship with the tblEmployee EmployeeID and tblWorkHistory EmployeeID
because one Employee can have many past jobs
where I run in a cloud is that in access under the edit relationship dialog window it has an button called JOIN TYPE when I click on that button it open the Join Properties dialog window and presents me with three options
1. Only include rows where the joined fields from both tables are equal
2. Include all recoreds from the 'tblEmployee' and only those records from 'tblWorkHistory' where the joined fields are equal
3. Include all records from 'tblWorkHistory' and only those records from 'tblEmployee' where the joined fields are equal
Can someone explain what access is trying to ask me as it pertains to my example. I am new to access to a basic answer would help me with future relationship issues and a better understand of the concept
Thanks
Hello..
I have a simple database of 4 tables.
luTblJobTitle
JobTitleID (pk)
JobTitle
luTblReason
ReasonID(pk)
Reason
tblDateReason
DateReasonID(pk)
EntryNumber(fk)
Date
Reason
Entered
tblEmpMain
EntryNumber(pk)
EmployeeNumber
Etc//
I have a 1 to many setup between tblEmpMain and tblDateReason.
When I try to setup the relationship between the "reason" field in tblDateReason and luTblReason, Referential Integrity along with the other two check boxes are greyed out.
It still shows one to many but it will not let me enforce referential intergrity.
Why is this? Did I setup the database wrong? Or am I trying to do something I shouldn't be doing??
I have attached the db.. It is split with both the backend and the front end.

My application is developed in Access 2003 version. Recently we moved from Access 2003 to Access 2010. Now users are facing usability issues like - in Access 2003 all the forms are opening in different windows and they can move to forms easily. But in Access 2010 all the Forms are opening in same window, if they want to move to different forms then they need to close the current window or press ctrl+F6. How can I enable/open forms multiple window in Access 2010.

Is it possible to close all open reports from one button on a form?
The form is a popup that appears if there are no records in a report. When the popup appears, and the user clicks OK, it is running a macro that closes the popup form and then the report. I would like to use this popup form for a number of reports, so obviously the macro cannot be used as it is only for one report.
Hope this makes sense and can anyone help?
Many Thanks.

I'm trying to find out what's the best (or good ways) to open and close a database (*.mdb) in ASP without
worrying about it staying open. The website stops running (page not displayed) after it has been visited several times
I think, or it's happening when I'm creating new scripts I made which crash several times during debugging. Not
sure what's causing it.
Here's how the db connections work. I'm basically using (includes) to do lots of this..
every web page that requires the DB, I do this format...
(includefile: open database)
(includefile: create constants/variables)
(includefile: load functions used)
- the html page, which access functions when needed -
(includefile: close database)
the includefile that holds all the function scripts does not open or close the db at all but only the recordsets
semi-example function
(function)
rs.open "", cn <--- the cn was opened in the database script
- blah = the stuff -
rs.close
(end function)
Is this a good way to work with the database? I'm using access. Yes, i know sql servers are better, but I was told that
since I have only access, I want to minimize the number of connections, so I open the database once during the page
being opened, and close at the end of the page.
Like I say, the problem is, the site works great for a while (no real visitors yet as it's new), but it suddenly says
"page not displayed" after a while. NORMALLY this happens when I'm making new functions/webpages and did the coding
wrong while the database is still open. I'm thinking it's crashing because there were too many errors during the database
being open.
PLEASE HELP!
BTW, is it possible to just run a script that finds ALL the open connections after a crash and close them?
Code to close all open objects?
Using just DoCmd.Close only closes the active object. I have been specifying everything individually but this is not practical as my database grows.
Hi,
I would like to open the MS Access Window in a certain position and size.
Somehow similar to open a form when using:
- to set the position and size:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Form.Move Left:=11500, Top:=6500, Width:=7000, Height:=6000
End Sub
I would like to open the MS Access Window within the screen area at a certain location, and having a certain size.
Is there any option in the Access Menu, or I can write some code, and where has to be written, so when I double click on the *.mdb file, the MS Access Window will open where I want and the size I want.
Thank you.
