Forms :: Create Hyperlink To Open Access Form

Jul 10, 2015

I 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.

Creating A Hyperlink To Open A PDF File?

Jan 22, 2014

I have a form, and on that form I have a textbox called RefDwgNo (user not allowed to make changes...just for viewing). Displayed in this textbox is the name of a file (without the .pdf extension). I changed the textbox to 'is hyperlink' and added to OnClick- this code:

Private Sub RefDwgNo_Click()
FollowHyperlink "***private***engineering_data***Private***Des ignFitoutLabel Plate\_LATEST REV"
End Sub

The user needs to actually open the .pdf file, not the folder its located in. How do I add the file name from this textbox to the code above?

Data Types

Sep 5, 2005

I have an Excel file (sourced externally) linked as a table. All fields are defined as text fields. In some of the Excel cells, data has somehow been entered as numeric (eg phone number). When I query the Excel file thru Access, these fields show up as errors (#num!).

I need to find a way of interogating the field, and if in error (like these ones), then ignore it, or replace with zeros etc.

I cant find a way of doing this. Help :)

Forms :: Use A Hyperlink To Open A Folder Within A Specific Directory

Nov 26, 2014

I have 3 attachment boxes in my table that appears in a form.each attachment box contains specific files (not specific as in extension such as PDF, JPEG, etc.) but specific as in Company Documents, Certifications, Resumes. The issue is there's a lot of document and I see my database growing (fast)...My question finally is....

Can I use a Hyperlink to open a folder within a specific directory where multiple file are located so i can open the specific file need there RATHER than attaching them in the attachment box individually?.?.....If not how this can be done (no SQL) unless that route is very simple and basic coding.

My thinking would be to place the file path to the documents in the table and hyper link that column in the table, but not knowing exactly how Hyperlinks work I don't think it would actually work..

I am trying to create a button that opens up a webpage. I get how to create a hyperlink on a button. The problem is, I need to open a specific page depending on the information in a text box.

Replace And Data Types

Jan 26, 2006

Hi all!
I'm experiencing an apparently simple problem, but it's taking me too long to solve :confused:
Two tables with a "text" (100) column on each. I want to select those who are identical. ¡So easy! thats the where clause:

AND a.sDesEntidad = b.sNombreLargo

That works fine. But... i want to "relax" the clause, by not considering dots ( . ) when comparing, and i do like this:

AND (Replace([a]![sDesEntidad],'.','') = Replace([b]![sNombreLargo],'.',''));

and i get a run-time Error 3464, Data type mismatch in criteria expression. Oooops!
My access version is 2003, spanish. I would really appreciate ur help, since this matter shouldn't be keeping me busy for so long :(
Regards and thx in advance!

Access Data Types

Feb 9, 2006

I am trying to do a comparison between two values and am getting the following error:

Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e07'
Data type mismatch in criteria expression.

The code that is creating the error is as follows:

sb = Request.Form("storyboardscreen")

if Not Lcase(Request.Form("AllStoryBoard")) = "all" then
whereClause = whereClause + "theStoryboard = " + sb
end if

I am using the statement to build the where clause of my query. The sb value is retrieved from a pull down menu and "theStoryboard" column is the db is of data type "text". The values stored in the field are 12 digit numbers. I have tried doing a cstr to sb but that doesnt work, any tips on what I am doing wrong? I am using asp with an access db....

Thanks

Modules & VBA :: Email Hyperlink / Attachment To Open Access File?

May 15, 2015

I have created an action log database that sends an email when a new action is entered. I would like to launch the database using a hyperlink in the email, but can't seem to get it to work. All users have a copy of the front end on their desktop, so whatever I add to the email needs to launch the front end for any user signed on to their own desktop.

This is what I have and it sends a hyperlink but I click it, I get an error saying it can't find the file. I don't know how to word the path name for any user?

With obMsg
.subject = "New action request for " & team
.To = people

[Code].....
