Path

May 12, 2006

Hi,

Ans1:
MyShortcut.TargetPath = "C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice10Msaccess.exe "

Ans2:
MyShortcut.TargetPath = "C:Program Files..Msaccess.exe "

The Ans1 works fine.
The Ans2 doesn't work.

I want to work the Ans2, because every user machine's Office path is different.

For example:
MyShortcut.TargetPath = "C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice10Msaccess.exe "

MyShortcut.TargetPath = "C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice11Msaccess.exe "

MyShortcut.TargetPath = "C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice12Msaccess.exe "

MyShortcut.TargetPath = "C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice13Msaccess.exe "

So, I want to create the link with the target
MyShortcut.TargetPath = "C:Program Files...Msaccess.exe "

How can I do it?
Please let me know, thanks.

Get "folder Path" From "file Path"

Jul 29, 2005

After some help from one of the threads here I managed to install a Browse button in a form that inserts a file path to a text box. What I need is the folder path from that file path in another text box. For example if the file path is
C:Documents and SettingsmixupSketchesowl.jpg

I would like to get either
C:Documents and SettingsmixupSketches
Or,
C:Documents and SettingsmixupSketches
in my second text box.

I do not have much experience with Access; therefore please give a little detail on how to accomplish this.

Thanks.

Get Path Of File

Apr 5, 2006

I have a button that allows a user to select a file using the windows select file dialog using the following code:

Dim fd As FileDialog
Set fd = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)

With fd
.Title = "Select A Text file to Import"
.Filters.Add "Text File", "*.txt"
.FilterIndex = 1
.AllowMultiSelect = False
.InitialFileName = CurrentProject.path
result = .Show
If (result <> 0) Then
Me!txt_path = Trim(.SelectedItems.Item(1))
End If
End With

Is there a way that I can capture the path of the file they select in a separate text box?

Thanks!

Specify Path To File With UNC

Mar 23, 2008

I went to the Microsoft knowledge base (304408) and found a routine that automatically logs off users with a short warning. It works fine, but depends on the presence or absence of a small text file which is named chkfile.ozx. The file is referenced in a form timer function as follows:

Dim StrFilename as String
strfilename = Dir("c:MyDirectorychkfile.ozx")

The function then tests for its presence and does its thing. You trigger the logoff by going in as sysop and changing the name of the file so it is no longer found.

The problem I have is that on the network, I use the backend file on the network and different users map different letters to it. I get around this by linking using UNC eg. \ServerNameSYSData_be.mdb.

I put the chkfile.ozx into this directory since all users presumably have access to it.

I tried changing the trigger function to

strfilename = Dir("\ServerNameSYSchkfile.ozx")

but the program doesn't recognize the presence of the file. When I map it as "F:SYSchkfile.ozx" it works, but since all users will not be mapped to "F", it really isn't a solution.

Does anyone know the proper syntax to include in the Dir method for UNC naming?

Linked Tables Path

Jan 22, 2007

Hey guys,

Is there a way to update the path of a linked table manually? The network drive on my computer is mapped to the letter V: but on other users this could be different. How can I set the location so that it just searches for the name of the server (ie. //ServerName/db1.mdb) instead of a hard path?

Easy Way To Show Path

Oct 2, 2006

Long story short, I need to have a command button (using xp) open up a folder where pdf's are stored, so the user can search. (orginally I wanted a pdf to open, then I tried having explorer open, so this is my last idea

I've tried a lot of the code in the archieves but none work exactly.

For example:

Private Sub cmdExplore_Click()
Dim stAppName As String

'stAppName = "C:Windowsexplorer.exe"
'above open in a tree view with my Documents; no explorer anywhere to be found

Call Shell(stAppName, 1)

Exit_cmdExplore_Click:
Exit Sub

Err_cmdExplore_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdExplore_Click

any ideas?
