Vertical Lines On Forms
Feb 10, 2005Rather than manually draw vertical lines on my forms, I'm looking for a way to generate vertical lines using VBA code. Has anyone done this?
Thanks,

Vertical Lines
Nov 7, 2005How would I go about getting vertical lines as column seperators down the entire page. The problem I run into is every time the row size changes there's a break in the column dividers. Someone suggested using a function in the On Print event for the report, but there is no OnPrint field in the event tab of the reports properties. If anyone ever did anything like this before, please let me know.

Sep 12, 2006I have a very simple database with one big table and a series of forms to walk researchers through data extraction from scholarly articles. Each researcher has a copy of the database and I export their info and merge it in a master file. One of my new researchers has just started and come across a problem I've never seen before. On her third record, access suddenly started replacing characters typed in (or selected from drop-down boxes) to the form fields with bold vertical lines, like this: ||||||On the table, they look like empty boxes instead of vertical lines. What she says happened was:-She was entering data into one of the forms (say form 4 of 7 - there are macros to open the new form when you finish the one you've been doing, but they only all close at the end of all 7 forms)-She saved-She looked at a PDF document on the same computer-She switched back to the database and several (but not all) of the characters on the form were replaced with the vertical lines. When she looked further, some fields on other forms (but not all the other forms) also had these vertical lines. Finally, one field had replaced the characters she'd typed not with vertical lines, but with some characters from another field. Is her copy of the db just corrupted? Is this some known bug? Can we avoid this? Thanks for any insight or referral.

Forms :: Vertical ScrollBar Of Subreport (on Main Form) Not Shown
Jul 16, 2015I have a main form with a subreport.
Mainform width is 22"(Maximum)
Subreport Wdth is also 22" (Maximum)
When i run the mainform, the subreport shows correctly but the vertical scrollbar is at most right side of main form so i have to scroll main form horizontally first to access the vertical scroll bar of subreport.
To solve, changing subreport orientation to right-to-left shows vertical scroll bar at most left but still if i scroll horizontally on mainform, that scrollbar hides as its not freezed.
Consider ActiveX Control of Microsoft ScrollBars 2.0 .....

View 1 Replies View RelatedForms :: Allow Horizontal And Vertical Scrollbars But Remove White Space (AC2007)
May 22, 2014I have a form which I would like to enable scrollbars both horizontally and vertically (the main reason being, the application is designed for users with large / wide screens but may at some point be required on smaller screens)
Currently I have the scrollbars switched off and the form maximises but everything goes to pot if I resize the window. I'd like to add the scrollbars so if a user wants to resize the window to, say, half the screen, they can still scroll across to the 'hidden' parts of the form.
The problem with this is, if the form is maximised - or at least large enough to show the entire form - the area of the screen where the horizontal scrollbar resides is white (whereas the background colour of the form is a pale green) Which is quite unsightly.
I know I can remove the problem by removing the horizontal scrollbar and the navigation bar (which is already gone!) but then I can't scroll?
Is it possible to have a horizontal scrollbar but not have that white space at the bottom when the scrollbar is not required?
(Doesn't appear to be a problem with the vertical scrollbar?...)
Forms :: Add Record Lines To Spreadsheet Form
Apr 25, 2013I want to create an access spreadsheet form in which the user can add data, which will be - after being processed - added to a database table. The spreadsheet form is for this reason not directly linked to a database table.
In the spreadsheet that I actually have, I manage to copy paste data from an Excel spreadsheet. However, only the first row is pasted. Access doesn't add new record lines for the other rows of my spreadsheet.
How can I make Access add record lines in function of the data on that is pasted? Or if this is not possible, how can I add sufficient additional lines myself?
Forms :: Dividing Lines In Form But Not Report

Is there any way of doing this other than just creating a duplicate form with a different name?
Forms :: How To Prevent Multiple Lines In Field
Apr 13, 2015Ive had a recurring problem with one of my databases
ive got a form with a subtable on it, the subtable is very important as much of the DB's data is entered in there.
every once and a while one of the users will be doing data entry and on a certain field (a short text field if that makes any difference) theyll push enter instead of tab, to move on to the next field, enter creates a new line instead of moving to the next field, when a new line is created the user will either assume the field is blank and retype the data or ignore it entirely and move on
the trouble is one of my queries completely fails to work when there are multiple lines in this field (comes with a data type mismatch error)
is there a way to prevent the field from being able to contain multiple lines (like a property setting or some VB code?)
Forms :: How To Break Update Statement Into Multiple Lines
Mar 7, 2014I am unable to break the UPDATE statement into multiple lines and now I am getting "Syntax Error in UPDATE statement"

View 2 Replies View RelatedForms :: Duplicate Lines In Multiple Form And Query
Jul 8, 2015The purpose of my database is to keep a record of training activities undertaken by staff. There is therefore a multiple form which displays, for a specified worker, the list of all the required activities. Each line has a button which opens another form to allow an activity to be started (together with start date and other info). The main tables are Worker, Activities, and a junction table Worker2Activities. On closing the second form and refreshing the first one, the started activity is correctly recorded, but on as many lines as there are staff on the course. To make matters worse, these also appear when i then select another worker (and if i create another worker, the number of lines goes up by one for all of them). The Worker2Activities table correctly show one new record created

Apr 7, 2013I have a multi select listbox that I rebuild as I index thru some products in another listbox. This listbox then gives me the ingredients I can use. Works well, but the ghost selections in the listbox stay hilighted even after the rebuild.
I can select and de-select at will if there are actual items in the list box, but the ghosts remain.
Here is the code to clear the listbox
Dim _

View 5 Replies View RelatedVertical Lables
Feb 11, 2008Due to limited space in my Report Heading, I am trying to vertically label columns. I figured out in the Properties section of the label that I can turn on Vertical Label. However, when I view it on the report, the label, which is now vertical is turned to the left vs the right. How do I flip it? In addition, is there a way to rotate the text to a 45% angle.
Thank you.

Vertical Text Label
Sep 9, 2004I have a text label that I would like to have vertical instead of horizontal. In the properties box, I go to the other tab and set 'Vertical' to yes and the text rotates. Except it rotates 90 degrees clockwise. (The text starts at the upper right corner and reads down, you have to tilt your head to the right to read it.) This seems the wrong direction to me and to my office mate - all the tables we've seen with vertical text has the text rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise (text starting from the lower left corner and reads up, you have to tilt you head to the left to read it.)
Is there any way I can make the text rotate counterclockwise instead of clockwise? I really don't want to create many little graphics.
Thanks
Changing Vertical Text On A Report
Oct 2, 2005Not sure if this is possible but I have a few text boxes on a report set to vertical yes under properties. They print fine, but on the pre-printed forms I'm using they print upside down. Is there a way to realign they way the text prints when using the vertical yes setting? I really need they text to be inverted. I'm I asking an impossible question? Thanks..
View 1 Replies View RelatedTransform Table From Horizontal To Vertical
Jun 4, 2007Hi there, I got a little data transformation problem:
I have got a source table:
ID 1 2 3
1 x y z
2 xx yy zz
That I wanna transform to the following format:
ID ID2 Comment
1 1 x
1 2 y
1 3 z
2 1 xx
etc...
The problem is, that I need a routine that takes the column names of table 1 and uses them as values in table 2. So basically, every column of table 1 (1,2,3, etc.) should become a new data record in table 2.
Any ideas how to solve this?
Thanks!
