General :: Only Open MS Access Form Without Access Running In Background?
Aug 7, 2013I have made a form on access which will be used by other employees within the company, however they have never used access before and they are wanting to access only just the form as I feel with Access and all the tools in the background will confuse them, plus I don't want them editing the data base its self.
Is there a way to only bring up the form, unless I obviously need to edit the date base.
I've done some research on Google and it seems I need to use:
SW_SHOWMINNOACTIVE
However I can not seem to find how I would use this or where?
and also if i did find a way to only bring up the form, how would I be able to switch it from that veiw to the veiw I edit in?

Open PDF File From Access Form
Feb 13, 2012I have a form where I enter data about Cities (just an example). The user will be able to to pick a pdf file (for example history of the city) and add its location in the matching record. Then anyone reading the form will be able to open (from a simple command button) the proper file.
City File
London london.pdf
Athens athens.pdf
I need a browse button for user to select the proper file and a command button. And I think that the file should always be available in the same URL.
Open Word Window On Access Form
Sep 6, 2005Hello,
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
Open Crystal Reports From An Access Form
Jan 31, 2008Hi guys,
I was wondering if any of you would be able to help me out. I'm trying to get a button on an access form to open crystal reports and pass two parameters through to it from controls on the access form.
This is what I have at them moment:
Private Sub openRpt_Click()
Dim selForm As String
Dim CrystalReport1 As Crystal.crystalReport
Set CrystalReport1 = CreateObject("crystal.crystalreport")
CrystalReport1.Connect = "ODBC;UID=ID;PWD=PW;DSN=dsn;Database=dbname"
CrystalReport1.ReportFileName = "O:DatabasesCReportsSingle Project Up To Burn Rate.rpt"
'CrystalReport1.WindowTitle = "Single Project Up To Burn Rate"
'CrystalReport1.WindowMaxButton = False
'CrystalReport1.WindowMinButton = False
'CrystalReport1.WindowState = crptMaximized
selForm = 'selection formula
CrystalReport1.SelectionFormula = selForm
CrystalReport1.ParameterFields(0) = "PeriodStart(" & Me.yearCode & ");true"
CrystalReport1.ParameterFields(1) = "ProjectNo(" & Me.projectNumber & ");true"
CrystalReport1.Destination = crptToWindow
CrystalReport1.Action = 1
End Sub
With this I'm currently getting a "Method 'Action' of object 'CrystalCtrl' failed" on the line CrystalReport1.Action = 1
My Ideal solution would open Crystal Reports in its own window, but if thats not possible opening in the access form would do.
currently running:
Access 2003
Windows Server 2003
Crystal Reports XI
Thanks

Jul 9, 2012I have fairly large Access 2003 tables and forms on my job. I am curious if I can open word document off the form by using command button. Very often I need to put info off the form to word and sent it via e-mail to clients so I every time I have to keep a lot open word documents at the same time on my computer 10 or more that is slow pc down. I would like to have like this : on specific form I have command button and when i need to work with word document , click that button that will open specific word doc and when I am done I think I need a second command button to safe and close word document and so that i can attach it to e-mail and sent it out. So every time I need to work with word doc, I can open it off the form and close it also when I am done with it so no word doc would be open unnecessarily.

Jul 10, 2015I am investigating on the possibility of setting up an approval process for our employee intake procedure by using MS Access and Outlook.
The idea is for the requester to open an intake form in Access and fill in the new employee's information and send an Outlook email to the manager for approval. I know how to trigger off an event on the form to send an email to the manager but my challenge is how to create a hyperlink in the email for the recipient to directly open the intake form with the specific record, without the need to open the database and find the specific intake form.
The intake form is built in a frontend .mde file on a shared drive where all users have access to.

View 14 Replies View RelatedForms :: Access Will Not Open New Form With Specific Data Instead It Returns All
May 2, 2013I am currently creating a database in a hierarchical system that is to be used by multiple users to enter information specific to them. The tables are arranged like this:
Owners
Modules
Tasks
Highlights
Theses are connected using primary ID's and Particular Entries in the next table so they form a hierarchy - when you expand owners it brings up a list of Modules attached to that owner, then expand each module and it brings up a list of tasks associated with that module, expand the task and it brings up a list of highlights associated with that task. This is all very straightforward of course but what I would like to do is create forms that basically match so that the users can navigate from their name, through their modules and tasks and then add highlights to each task.
For this I have been using continuous forms to list all the different entries and inserting a button in each entry that I would like to link to the next form and find the specific data, however when I try to do this the button always without fail will just return all the entries from the form rather than the specific ones requested. I set up the button using the wizard and select 'open form and find specific data' and then select two entries that are identical on each form. I have trawled the internet quite a bit to try and find why this is happening and have inserted various bits of code etc into the embedded macro in an attempt to make it work but to no avail.
I wonder if there is something I need to activate on the form that the button connects to aswel or if I need to connect these forms using the relationship that I used to connect the tables (I am still using a unique identifier).If I connect to a single form it will display the first entry on the list (and I can cycle through them all) on a continuous form it will display all entries starting with the first.I would like it to display all entries for the selected record on the form.
General :: Macro To Email A Form Once Condition Met - Open Outlook From Access
Apr 10, 2013I have a macro set to email a form to a person once a condition is met. This works fine but I've discovered that Outlook (2010) has to be open BEFORE this macro is invoked.
I wanted to add a step to the macro before the one that makes it email that basically says to open Outlook.
I have tried the RunApplication macro, but I apparently am not getting the path right. I don't understand what the problem is.
I accidentally dragged Outlook to my desktop and therefore created a shortcut from my Start Menu, but now when I go to Microsoft Office in my Start Menu, Microsoft Outlook isn't one of the options. I can't find the path to where it may reside now.
I am using the path to the shortcut on my desktop.

What else am I supposed to do?

View 3 Replies View RelatedOpen Access App With Access Window Minimized
Mar 29, 2007I already have this working by means of:
doCmd.RunCommand acCmdAppMinimize in Form_Load (or Form_Open) events.
This works great to hide Access and only display the main form (like a standalone app).
But I have 2 issues:
1. The PopUp form (main or "switchboard" if you like) opens, then Access is minimized, but then the form looses focus. If there are other programs running, form will be behind them!
2. Access is first seen opening (for a moment) and THEN minimized (see 1.). Is there a way NOT TO SEE IT at all? :)
Thanks!
