Spell Check Error In Access 97

Can't start the spelling checker because it isn't installed.
How do I get it installed?
Thanks!

Hi
I have sendkey "{f7}" on loss focus.
this works great as a spell check but then I get the mesage box that spell check is complete.
How do I stop this box from occuring?
Hi everyone and many thanks in advance.
I have configured my Access 2007 DB/app to hide the default ribbons and Options settings so that end-users cannot change the config or perform tasks that would jeopardize the integrity of the data. One of the other requirements on this project is to allow the end-user to launch the Spell Check feature.
It was simple enough to launch Spell Check from a button on a form. The problem lies in that the Spell Check feature has an "Options" button that serves as a point of entry to the Access Options that I'm trying to prevent the user from seeing.
Can anyone tell me how to hide or disable the Options button in Spell Check? I fear that this is not possible and I will have to choose between Spell Check and ensuring data integrity.
Many thanks,
Dominick:confused:
When distributing a program using 2010 runtime, I find that the spell check doesn't work. Is there a spell-check .dll or is there anyway I can get a spell checker?I have several memo fields with long report-type data entry which is being keyed by mutants. Spell checking is essential to get an intelligible report.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIf you look at the attachment in access settings it says it is set how to auto correct and "INDICATE SPELLING".
in my forms/tables/queries... it will not bring up spelling mistakes or the sort.
We need to enter the string INCL as a data value in one of our tables. When we try to exit the field, Access keeps changing it to INCLUDE. This occurs whether the value is entered via a form or directly in the table. I assume it is doing some type of autocorrect based on th spelling. There is no VBA code associated with this field.
Is there some way to turn this off?
How do you make the spell checker not cycle through all your records when you run it? As it is right now, when a user tries to spell check their entry into the summary block of my form it automatically starts with the first record in the database and goes from there.
This is in Access2003 BTW.
I have 15 fields beginning with the word Comment. (i.e. comment, comment1, comment2 etc)
What Im trying to do is create a spellcheck command button that will only check these fields and only on the current record.
I've managed to find this piece of code to do the actual check:
With Me.FIELDNAME
.SetFocus
.SelStart = 0
.SelLength = Len(Me.FIELDNAME)
End With
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSpelling
Question is, how do I get this piece of code to loop through any field beginning with the word 'comment' and check their spelling?!
Any help would be much appreciated
I have a subform in datasheet view. I would like to put a button on the mainfor that checks all the subform records for spelling mistakes. Is this possible?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a Access 2010 database running in runtime. What options do I have for spell check? I can bind to a 2010 Word spell check (if it is installed), but could I do a late bind to utilise any other office spell check? Tried to use a .net spell checker dll and get access to call out the text and get returned the errors? Not sure what options I have really...

Long time lurker, first time poster.
I'm in need a of a check-in/check-out application for my company. We have about 550-600 employees at any given time and our turnover is about 20-30% per year. Our check-in/check-out process requires our employees to personally visit between 30-40 areas in our company (personnel, safety, credentials, parking, insurance, etc) within the first month of employment. This is currently done manually and is a huge drain on labor, especially when check-in sheets are lost, misplaced or, in some cases, forged.
I'm looking to build a database that would be intranet based, password secure (by check-in area) that would allow the new employee to present at a particular check-in, check-out site, complete that portion of the check-in/out process and then allow the person responsible for the check-in/out to enter the status into the database. At any point in the process, I would want to know the status of the person checking in/out (how long they've been checking in/out and what portion of the process have they completed).
Can this be done in ACCESS?
Thanks
Hi firstly I want to say I am not a programmer or anything like that, I know enough about Access to get me by with simple things but after that i get a little stuck so please dont baffle me with loads of technical coding terms :D
Ok..I have a database with a form where the users enter a subject and description. I have a spell checker running on these 2 fields which works fine up to a certain point. If the users goes in, adds a new record, tabs off the field, the spell checker runs, etc then it works fine. If the user then creates a new record and it picks up a spelling mistake in the new record it jumps back to the previous record that was created and spell checks that again.
If you close the form and open it again before creating the second record it is fine. Could anyone possible shed any light on the situation? Below is the code that I am using (found it on the internet somewhere)
Private Sub Description_AfterUpdate()
'If the textbox contains data run the
'Spell Checker after data is entered.
If Len(Me!Description & "") > 0 Then
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSpelling
Else
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Description_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
End Sub
Private Sub Subject_AfterUpdate()
'If the textbox contains data run the
'Spell Checker after data is entered.
If Len(Me!Subject & "") > 0 Then
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSpelling
Else
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub
I have a report with an if then statement for a checkbox.
If checkbox is true...etc versus if checkbox is false...etc
When there isn't a record that has this checkbox checked, I get the error
"You entered an expression that has no value." (Runtime error 2427) How can I ignore this error
when the record doesn't apply to the criteria?
I'm using the following code (from GHudson) to check for required fields being filled in but it stops at a particular combo box and gives the error message Runtime error 2110 "can't move the focus to the control" although it works on previous combos which are set up in the same way.
Private Sub Close_Click()
'Key "Required" in the Tag property of the form object.
Dim ctl As Control
For Each ctl In Me
If ctl.tag = "Required" Then
If IsNull(ctl) Or ctl = "" Then
MsgBox "You must complete all required fields to continue. Your cursor wll now be set to the missed field", vbCritical, "Required Field"
ctl.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
End If
Next
Set ctl = Nothing
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdClose
'If MsgBox("Have you selected the record type and filled in the other yellow fields? These are mandatory. If you haven't - click on 'No' to return to form", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Open Form?") = vbYes Then
'DoCmd.SetWarnings False
'DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdClose
'DoCmd.SetWarnings True
'End If
End Sub
I have a form - see attached image.
The first text box is called Job_No. When a number is entered here how can I check that the number doesn't already exist when the user tabs to the next box. Then if it does exist display a custom message to the effect "This already exists" and not the Access default duplicate error message.
Thanks
Michael
I'm trying to get a spell check to work on a text box on a form. i've got it popping the spell check window after the box has been updated but i'd prefer it to just highlight the errors in red, rather than pop the spell check box. another problem i'm having is when it's finished spell checking the box it moves the form back to the first record. this is the code i'm using.
Code:
Private Sub txt_notes_AfterUpdate()
If Len(Me!txt_notes & "") > 0 Then
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSpelling
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
Else
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub
Hello,
I have written an extensive Access DB Application for my company and have placed it on a cd for distribution. When we try to copy it from the CD to a folder on another machine the above mentioned error comes up. Any Suggestions. Jeff
I have some code that will run if I am populating an empty table(no duplication's possible) but now I am trying to create a Sub to check for existence of a record and handling it going forward.
Anyways the big picture is looping through a text file and placing data where it needs to go. The code follows including some comments point to the issue.
Code:
Sub PutinNewTag(TableIn As String, Tagtype As String, textline As String)
Dim strSQL As String
Dim NameIn As String
Dim TagName As String
Dim Db As DAO.Database
Dim rstin As DAO.Recordset
[Code] ....
Error: Error evaluating check constraint in the validation rule
What does this mean?
I have used a combo box in the table to input into 2 fields - one restricted to numbers 1 to 5 and the other restricted to letters A to E
Message comes up when I try to change the view or press submit. Does it have anything to do with the field type?
I would like to convert a text string to integer.
Lots of posts say to use val, but it is not listed in access 2010
So I am trying,
Creating a field that is numeric then just referring to the string field.
This works good except where it finds actual text. It puts the value "#Type!" in there.
Would there be some kind of function to check for an error or check if the value is text.
Hello creators,
I have a little problem and it is creating and checking directories.
In my database I have a form, on it you can see a record of a project. This project has a keyfield called projectno.
On this form there is a button to create a directory with the projectnumber. So far so good. (code example: MkDir ("C:projects444323")
My problem:
If the directory for some reason already exist the code stops and gives an error.
Now I want to create some code that checks if the directory already excist so than I can skip making the directory.
Thanks for the help!!!!!
I'm new to access. I have created table with following fields.
ID No, Name, Address, Gender, Favorite Food
I want to create form to insert data into tables. I have used option buttons for Gender and Check boxes for Favorite Food. But data didn't insert to the table specially option button and check boxes data didn't insert but other data successfully inserted into the table.
Database1.accdb
I'm relatively new to Access 2010.
I want Access to look in one table for a certain condition, and if it is true to autofill text in a different column but I've never done this before.
Specifically, I have a column in a table that is named "Letter Received" and another named "Letter Received Unsigned" which is in date format. I want Access to write "N/A" in the "Letter Received Unsigned" column if there is a date entered in the "Letter Received" column.
I've created a database with entries corresponding to different participants in a tasting experiment. All the entries are stored in a single table. The participants are each members of a family, with participants of a family given a family number (increments with family) (see image link below).
imgur.com/yM1vO59
I want to be able to check that for either 'Mother' or 'Father' of 'Child1','Child2', etc. within the same family, the location within the sweet, sour, bitter column is the same.
(I'm asssuming five queries will have to be run, one for each of the flavours).
To reiterate, I want to check for example if 'Mother' and 'Child1' within 'Family Number' 3 taste 'Bitter' in the same place (Which they do - 'Middle').
I have a form that has a remarks textbox. Depending on the options, the form will write something in that textbox. Now I want to have other options (check boxs) that I can click on which will add to that remarks textbox.
Code:
Private Sub Check27_Click()
If Me.Check27 Then
Me.Remarks = ("Shipping Box/Container")
Else
Me.Remarks = ""
End If
End Sub
