Input Mask Password Help
Jan 31, 2006how can i only allow numbers to be entered when i make the input mask password
View 1 Replies View RelatedClearing Password Input Box
Apr 21, 2005Hi
I have set up a simple password system to allow someone to have access to some forms within my database that I don't want others to see. I have created a pop up form for the password based on using the Input Mask Password. The password log in works fine but the password stays in the input box so if another user clicks on the button that brings up the password pop up form, all they have to do is press enter or click the command button and they are through.
How can I get the password input box to clear itself - probably on closing the password form?
I'm sure it's a simple piece of code but my knowledge of VB is limited and everything I have tried brings up an error of one sort or another.
Thanks for any help.

Forms :: Permit Only 50 Group Leaders To Input / Edit Data On Password Protected Forms
Jul 29, 2015I am building a very comprehensive Membership Management Database with extremely useful facilities initiated by some 20 or 25 Queries..
The database includes 5 Tables which store data relevant to members, another which stores details of Interest Groups and a 3rd which stores which members are affiliated to which Group or Groups.
Currently the database is accessible only by a very limited number of persons and data can be entered/edited by only one person. The database, using Access 2010, is maintained on a desktop computer and synchronized to a copy on a Cloud.
My requirement is to permit some 50 Group Leaders to input/edit data on a Password protected Group Members Form such that that is the only element of the database that they can access. The Forms would have only 2 fields from which the user would select entries from drop down lists.
My query is ; is such a procedure feasible in principle and would I be correct in assuming that the user would require to have available a copy of Access.

Password Issues With Non Protected Database Asking For Password
Nov 8, 2005Hi,
Firstly thank you for your help, this should be a simple one I hope, but is cracking my head on the wall. Have searched and searched and can't find an answer.
I have an Access Db that is not password protected, but is asking for a password.
It opens on any other machine fine?
I think my version of Access is playing funny buggers with me, any suggestions?
I was trying to implement some security on this Db, which is why it happened I'm sure. I ran the security wizard, set-up two users and admin with passwords, I have the output file to "recreate" something too.
Issue is, I then copied this Db to another computer for use on there, it worked without a Password, so didn't need to worry about it, now I can't open any Db on my machine??
Your help on this obvious pointer would be great!

Recall - 7 Records Into 1
Feb 9, 2005I've set up a DB to monitor employee hours. I have an employee table with a relationship to work done (one record = one days of work), so everyday is a new record in the work table. This is fine to monitor daily work patterns. However I need to calculate weekly work and other calculations (such as sixth and seventh shift payments, 15%payments, 25% payments etc). Is there any way that I can create a query that will give me one record for an employee that gives me start and end time for a Sunday, same for a Monday etc.
In other words I want to put start and end time for a Sunday to Saturday ( 7 records) into 1 record at the end of the week? (for each employee in the DB.
Any ideas?

Recall - Export To MS Word
Nov 17, 2004I have a template fax set up in Microsoft word and want to be able to export fields from my database (in form view) to the word document. For example, I have a 'purchase order No' on the access form which I want to send to the Word document. When exported I then want the user to be prompted to save the document as a new name so they do not overwrite the original template fax.
Any ideas guys,

Recall - Simple Sum On Form
Nov 23, 2004This is probably v. simple but is doin me head in.
I've got a form based on a query containing three figures (currency). I want a total box that will add the 3 up. On the query I've created a field called Total with the following:
Total:sum([Text1]+[Text2]+Text3])
When three figures are in it works fine. If one of the figures is not there it displays #Name. I could get the fields in the table to automatically display 0, but if a user deletes off the 0 I'm stuffed.
Where am I going wrong?

View 1 Replies View RelatedRecall - Unbound Forms
Nov 23, 2004I've been reading a bit on the site from users who are working with DB over the network and speed issues it brings. I've got the same problem over a Citrix network with a split DB. The speed issue comes when loading up a bound form. I've rewritten some of the code so that when a user leaves a form, instead of closing down, it simple gets hidden and things have speeded up a lot. However, the initial load of the screen on DB start up is v.slow.
I'm interested in finding out how to use an unbound form ad then associate it with the data when it has loaded. Can anyone give me any tips or point me in the way of a sample DB.

Recall - Linked Table DB
Nov 23, 2004I've created a linked table database which is running currently at my offices over a Citrix network. We want to put the database into 2 other sites (initially), however, the drive that all the sites see is slightly different for my site than the other sites (i.e. I see it as W: but they see it as P, but physically they are the same drive. Obviously, the links to the tables would have to be changed so the other FE could see the BE. I can't do this from my site as I cannot see the drive as they see it. I don't want them going into the FE design to update the linked table manager everytime I make changes and send them a new DB.
Does anyone know how (or have an example DB) to create a button on the FE that will ask the user to select the location of the BE with a file browser, for example and then update the table links.
Think this is a bit of a tough one, but I'm sure someone must have done it at some point.

Recall - Unbound Form
Dec 5, 2004I've been looking at Sbaxters example unbound form. I want the form to be unbound, but I also need the form to show the autonumber straight away when they create a new record, but the data they enter into the text boxes only gets written to the DB tables when they hit the Save button. Is this possible?
Also, on my forms I always have a record count (on the On_Current event) of the form. When they use the next button this changes to show 1 of 100 for example. If the form is unbound how do I get this to display how many records are in the DB or how many records have been found during a search.

Recall - DLookup Question
Dec 7, 2004I've sussed out how to do DLookups now to find duplicates etc. What I want to do however is look for duplicates say in the primary key of a field and then return a message saying their is a duplicate (and return the company name for example) instead of just saying there is a duplicate.
To explain a bit better I have companies set up with codes to recognise them (which a user keys in). If a user keys in a code already used by a company I want a message to display there is a duplicate and tell them the name of the company this is already being used for.

Recall - Speed Up Linked DB
Dec 14, 2004I've created an Access DB on a Citrix server which is multi user so has been split and user linked tables. It runs quite slow however. At the moment I don't have time to convert it to unbound forms, so have read that one solution to speeding it up is to create a table in the back end tables to the main DB. Then use the open recordset event to keep the link between the two open.
I know how to link the two, but can someone explain the open recordset part please. What do have to do?

Recall - Query Count
Jan 7, 2005I'm fine using the dcount function to count records in a table or query. However, I've got a problem which I can't get my head round. I've got a relatively large DB of up to 80,000 records. When someone does a search and haven't narrowed down the search criteria enough it takes a while to search through the records. I want a piece of code to search for records until the number of records found is 50. At that point it will pause seaching and tell the user '50 records found - carry on searching?'. If they select 'yes', it will continue for another 50 records, then prompt with this message again. This should continue until the user either select 'NO' and ends the search or the search finds all the records.
I think I may have to use a 'for loop' with a counter going up 1 every time a record is found. But I don't really know how to increment a search by one record each time there's a match. I also don't know how to pause the search when it gets to 50, 100, 150 etc.

Recall - Combo Box From 3 Tables
Jan 22, 2005I want to create a combobox from 3 tables. The tables are like this:
Table / Field
TblSource / Source
TblAdverts / AdRef
Tbljobcentre / JobCentre
I now want a combo box listing everything from these fields in the 3 tables. Can this be done through VB or will I have to create a series of queries to append etc (which I think tends to run slower than code)?
I also want everything in the tbladvert table to be prefixed by PR and everything in the TblJobCentre table to be prefixed with JC.
Help on the first one would be great, but even jufirst part would be a big help.

Recall - Null A Text Box
Feb 1, 2005I've got text box on a form that contains a text value. It is a bound form. I've put code behind the text box that runs on the 'Before Update' event to check if the figure already keyed is a duplicate. If it is then I want the text box to be cleared. I've got it to work if I use the me.undo code, but I only want the text box to be blanked and not the whole forms data. When I put in code txtAccNo = "" or txtAccNo = null then I get an error message telling me the form data cannot be saved using this method. In the table I've set this field up so AccNo is indexed and does allow duplicates, but then I check for duplicates actually on the form in question. It is not the primary key in the table. Any ideas what I can do just to blank this cell when a duplicate occurs?
