I just added a ActiveX control to my program and I have a scroll mouse, and there when the user used the mouse to scroll through the records, the record changes but the ActiveX Control doesn't. My activeX Control is used for a digital signature. Anyone Have any ideas?
View RepliesI have a subform with loads of command buttoms on it but if I try and select any of them I get the message "The OnClick you entered as the property setting produced the following error: A problem occured while BCF data collection tool was communicating with the OLE server or ActiveX control". I don't understand what this means and just wondered if anyone could point me in the right direction for resolving the issue.

Hi All!
I'm new to ms access 2007.
How can I register my ocx files? like comdlg32.ocx?
Please help! My .mde file is running but somehow some of the features are not running.
I need to use various activeX controls in MsAccess2003. I downloaded a few activeX controls but I am having a problem with licensing. I registered the controls and the registration succeeded but when I try to add this ActiveX control on a form in MSAccess, I get the message that I don't have the license required to use this ActiveX control and that I should obtain the appropriate licence from the company that provides the licenced OLE object or ActiveX control. Any ideas on how to overcome this problem?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHello, I wrote an access program using version 2000 and the activex calendar 11.0 which came with the software. When i tried to run the same program on access 2003 none of my dates worked and I got error messages all over the place. Help!
View 4 Replies View RelatedI use the Active X calendar control 10.0 in a number of forms*. The mscal.ocx file is in c:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice 10.
(*In the calendar's Properties it says it is "MSCAL.Calendar.7", which I think is just MS's way of confusing people.)
After splitting the deploying my app, it appears lots of my users either don't have version 10.0 or it is stored someplace else; for example, in C:WindowsSystem32. Because they don't have the correct version/path, everything crashes.
So, how can I easily determine whether users have the right ActiveX in the correct location?
The Microsoft web site says "To distribute your component as part of a Visual Basic application, you can use Package and Deployment Wizard". I don't have that wizard in my version of Access (2002 SP3 on Windows XP), so that's not an option.
Microsoft also says to "To enter the base address for your component, open the Project Properties dialog box and select the Compile tab. The address is entered in the DLL Base Address box, as an unsigned decimal or hexadecimal integer. The default value is &H11000000 (285,212,672). If you neglect to change this value, your component will conflict with every other in-process component compiled using the default. Staying well away from this address is recommended." It seems to make sense that I put the mscal.ocx in the database's directory on the server to serve as the "base address", but other than that this option scares the heck out of me.
Does someone have any suggestions how to easily ensure users have the right ActiveX version on their computer - and in the correct location? (I'm not a super-coder.)
As always, thanks
Christine

View 6 Replies View RelatedI had a search client form. This form used to work fine, so i haven't tocuhed it for a while. Basically what happens is you double click on the client and it clones it to the form.
However just a second ago i tested the form again and an error appears "ActiveX component cant create object". I've made no modifications to anything involving this form so im bit stuck for ideas.
I also received an error message telling me to check - Visual Basic --> Tool --> Reference. That says "Missing: Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library". I have browsed for the file but had no luck in finding a file to replace it.
I get this error everytime i try to use any wizard in access, i have uninstalled and reinstalled acces, i looked at the MSDN and i cannot find anything that will fix my problem. I have windows XP and office 2002 if that could help with the solution.

Hi,
I have a form with an ActiveX Control for Media Player 10. The player works ok, but if I try to close the form using the PlayStateChange Event, Access crashes out to the 'Send Report To Microsoft' window.
This is the code:-
Private Sub WindowsMediaPlayer0_PlayStateChange(ByVal Newstate As Long)
If Newstate = 8 Then
DoCmd.Close
End If
End Sub
This is looking for the end of the current media file, but I get the same problem if I look for Newstate = 1, the stop button being pressed.
However, if I put the DoCmd.Close command behind a command button, the form closes as normal.
Any ideas?
Okay, so I have tried to fix this for three days. When I try to create a button, combo or list box I get the message:
ActiveX Controls Can't Create Object. I have been through Internet Options/Security. I have tried reinstalling, I have tried to look into the registry. I even check Microsoft HELP and Mircosoft website and am getting nowhere. Can anyone please, please help solve this problem because it completely baffles me on how to fix this!!!
Oh yeah, (and now I am angry!!!)

Hi all:
Attached is a simple Outlook Type of Switchboard that I was playing around with. This switchboard does not use ActiveX like others that I have seen out there.
If you improve on this simple switchboard could please post it back for others in in the forum. I would like to know what people think about this simple swtichboard.
The attached zip file is MSAccess 2002 version.
Thanks

I am trying to build a form that accepts either a single date for start and stop dates whilst allowing a range of dates to be selected for operations that cover several days.
I am using the Access 2003 calendar which is fine for selecting a single date but how do I select several dates (4-7 Mar for example) ?
Thanks in advance

I'm not sure if this is a Query problem or a Report problem, so I'm putting it in the General catagory. If I need to post it in one of the others, please point me the right direction.
I have set up the following:
Query A - Combines data from several tables
Query B - Prompts for a text string and places it in a table
Query C - Uses the text entered in Query B to select records from Query A. The field that is searched is a text field.
Report A – Has an Open procedure that executes a macro that runs Query A. I also have a Close procedure that executes a macro that runs a second report based on Query A against a different table.
When I run the report on my desktop it works properly. I had a user try to run the report and she gets the following error immediately, prior to being prompted for the text.
Error:429;ActiveX component can't create object
I am running Office XP and she is running 2003 with SP2. She has not had problems with other Access reports in the same DB. Any ideas what is missing?
Thanks,
Christy
I just installed Office 2007 and I get this error whenever I start MS Access 2007.
"A problem occured while Microsoft Office Access was communicating with the OLE server or ActiveX Control"
What could it be? I don't have any antivirus appz or such that could interfere, and my Windows XP+SP2 is updated daily.
After searching the forums, I've found some information, but not what I need or what works.
I've got everything playing fine, from where people can play a file they choose from a list, but I need to add some advanced controls for Fast Fowarding and such.
Searching google, I've managed to find plenty of VB controls, but none seem to work in VBA. I've set the Media Player references, but when trying:
me.MediaPlayer0.Controls the only option it gives me are Items and Count, not Play, Stop or Pause (or anything similar).
Anyone know how to do the advanced controls?
Using Activex controls for capturing video from a webcam or similar. Just looking for a snapshot that I could then forward via email from access.
Ive seen commercial licenses for an activex control. The form Im imagining would have a window showing the live video with a snapshot button where we could store the image as a jpg for example and then generate an email forwarding on the image. It seems possible!
