Windows Taskbar Hidden By Pop-up
Oct 15, 2006
I have searched the forums but all I can find is code to hide the windows taskbar, when actually I want the opposite.
I have a form which I have set the following properties:
Pop-up = Yes
Modal = No
Control Box = Yes (Only while designing, will change)
Max/Min = None
I have also placed code in the On Load event namely "DoCmd.Maximize"
When the form loads, it maximises as I would like but it also covers the windows taskbar, which is something I don't think my users would like at all!!! Any idea how to get it to still maximise ( as this hides the db windows) but not hide the taskbar?

This one has me stumped:When a particular database opens, its window is partially under (hidden by) the menu and tool bar. I can't click on the window's top in order to move it. I've tried several things (i.e. resizing the screen resolution, moving the menu and tool bars, resizing the window, etc.) with no resolution. Any suggestions.Am using Access 2003, Thanks, Joel

Is there a way to make it so when you open a database the forms, tables, etc do not appear in the taskbar and just appear in the bottem right of access.
So basically, like already but without the taskbar tabs.
Thanks

Hi,
I have a form with command buttons on it (a menu) but I want the form to be full screen without hiding the taskbar. I can get the form to fill the screen with no problems, its just a matter of having the taskbar available to multi-task!!!
Also, is it possible to have a few forms open at once with each form appearing on the taskbar
i.e. START | Microsoft Access | Form 1 | Form 2
Thanks in advance!!!

I have a website that is asp (not .net) based with an Access DB and I am in the process of replacing an old windows 2000 server with a much faster windows 2003 server. Here lies the problem I have a script as part of the admin that exports data to a csv file. The query joins 4 tables together to get the data needed for the export. On the windows 2000 server it takes 1-5 seconds to execute and have the csv file ready for download. On the window 2003 server it times out. I striped it down to use 2 joins and it worked although it took more like 10-20 seconds to export. This exports a specific range of ID's and the range is normally only 40-50 rows. If I put time stamps in the code the problem is in the query of the database, so I know its not in the file write etc.
I am going to rewrite it to use multible querys instead of one large query, but I have many other sites that I am moving to this server that would work better if I can figure out why it is so slow.
The windows 2000 is a 900 mhz server the windows 2003 is a 2.8GHZ server both have 1 GIG of ram. The database file is on the local drive on both servers. I am guessing it is a difference in the Jet version, I just haven't been able to find a solution to the problem. This uses a DSN connection, configured the same on both servers. I have also tried it as a DSN-less connection with the same result.
I have installed access on the server and to execute the command in access it is <2 sec.
I am not an access expert I normally program in .net and php and use MySQL and MsSQL for databases, we just have these legacy sites that use Access DB's

Hey guys,
We are running a mdb access file that spawns different 'windows' or forms if you will. We've had a request from a staff member that they be opened in different taskbar instances in windows xp. It does in windows 2k, however.
The only way of swapping forms at the moment is to click "Window" and then the form name.
Any idea's guys?

how I can replace the MS Access icon in the windows 7 taskbar at the bottom of my screen with my customized one. I already added under the access options the form and report icon and was hoping that this may solve the issue. But my own icon just pops up on the title bar of the main access screen, forms and the reports.

Hi All,
This is my problem -
My customer has Access programs that work on their Windows 98 OS PC's, but when they try to use them on Windows 2000 OS PC's they will not work.
The programs I believe were originally written in Access 97 and now they have Access 2000 on the PC's.
By not working I mean the following -
The Access program allows them to enter a document name and then the file opens in Word - BUT - when they use it in Windows 2000 it does not open the document at all. It says file not found in Windows 2000 and the file does exist.
** The reason they have Access opening files is that Access keeps track of them for auditing purposes.
Now here is something that I want to mention. On PC's that were upgraded from Windows 98 to Windows 2000 the programs work.
Can anyone here tell me what is missing from 98 to 2000 that would do this.
Thank you very much for your time.

Hi there,
Is there a way to hide the application title bar (including the min, max and close buttons) as well as the windows taskbar when Access is running? I have seen this done before where the form fills the entire screen - ie no controls or frames are visible.
Does anyone have any suggestions????
Thanks,
Glenn

Hi guys
firstly, i have been searching the forum for previous posts on this issue - I was hoping someone else has asked this question before... no luck tho
if someone can point me the right direction that would be great(im guessing it will have to be done through VB) - I wanted to know if it is possible to have a "hidden" field in my primary form, which would be set to autonumber, so that when the user fills in and submits this first form, the hidden autonumber can be passed to subsequent forms.
anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance

There are queries in my database that are not displayed in the query window of Access.
They are listed in the MSysObjects tables but I need to update the query and I cannot get to it.
I have show hidden objects checked in the options (MSys... tables are displayed but not these queries).
Why is this happening and how can I change it?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Was wondering whether its possible to control the appearance of pages...
I have a main form on which I have about 7 pages. When the main form is in the FORM-view, the headings of the pages are 'hidden'. One has to scroll up in order to see them.
As certain users of the database will be using Access viewer and thus only see this main form, it would be convenient if I could make sure that when the MAIN form is on, the headings are not hidden. So, it's a layout problem.
Any tips on this?
Thanx Stacey

hello all ! here is a new challenge.
I have an application in access 2k, where i am hidden access environment using code. Because i am hidding access environment the popup and mode properties are in YES.
Situation:
i have a form with a combo list, where i can select a report, 1 button to view the report , another button to print the report and another button to close the form.
Once the user has selected the report and pressed the view button the following code runs:
DoCmd.OpenReport "reportname", acViewPreview, acWindowNormal
if the user pressed print the following code runs:
DoCmd.OpenReport "reportname", acNormal
Problem:
When a user wants to view a report nothing happens. the report is not open.
do any of you have an idea?
i am attaching 2 db. One where you can see the problem with hidding environment (wine_NOcode). The second db without hidding it (wine_code).
the pwd is 1.
thx very much, Max.

When trying to open an Access database on the server, an error message appears - "Compile of hidden files error", followed then by a run-time error. There is no problem accessing the the server and opening the database from another PC? Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this. Backups to CD have started failing at the same time.

Hello,
I have hidden most of the menu bars for my database (from the tools.. startup.. menu) and I dont have a backup of my latest database (yes, I know, stupid.) The only menus I have are File, Edit, Insert, Records, Window and Help. The database window is also not displayed.
How do I get them back..? My database is set to load a form on startup, all data is accessed via a set of forms linked from the first. I cant access the tables, design view, anything. I feel like such a muppet...
Help!!

Hi
I have created a monster I think and I am not sure how or why.
I needed a query to tie together data from a range of tables and so it has about 20 constituent queries, each of which involves some calculation.
The query isn't so horrendous
SELECT tblApplications.lngApp, qryExpWkHomeHelp.WkHomeHelp, qryExpWkPrescrip.WkPrescrip, qryExpWkHosp.WkHosp, qryExpWkRent.WkRent, qryExpWkSup.WkSup, qryExpWkInt.WkInt, qryExpWkLife.WkLife, qryExpWkCouncil.WkCouncil, qryExpWkCar.WkCar, qryExpWkCar1.WkCar1, qryExpWkHp.WkHp, qryExpWkDep.WkDep, qryExpWkCont.WkCont, qryExpWkProp.WkProp, qryExpWkOther.WkOther, qryExpWkTel.WkTel, qryExpWkTv.WkTv, qryExpWkWater.WkWater, tblApplications.lngAppCon, tblApplications.bAppEleg, tblApplications.dtmAppGcSub
FROM qryExpWkWater RIGHT JOIN (qryExpWkTv RIGHT JOIN (qryExpWkTel RIGHT JOIN (qryExpWkOther RIGHT JOIN (qryExpWkProp RIGHT JOIN (qryExpWkInt RIGHT JOIN (qryExpWkLife RIGHT JOIN (qryExpWkCouncil RIGHT JOIN (qryExpWkHp RIGHT JOIN (qryExpWkDep RIGHT JOIN (qryExpWkCont RIGHT JOIN (qryExpWkCar1 RIGHT JOIN (qryExpWkCar RIGHT JOIN (qryExpWkSup RIGHT JOIN (qryExpWkRent RIGHT JOIN (qryExpWkPrescrip RIGHT JOIN (qryExpWkHosp RIGHT JOIN (qryExpWkHomeHelp RIGHT JOIN tblApplications ON qryExpWkHomeHelp.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp) ON qryExpWkHosp.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp) ON qryExpWkPrescrip.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp) ON qryExpWkRent.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp) ON qryExpWkSup.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp) ON qryExpWkCar.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp) ON qryExpWkCar1.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp) ON qryExpWkCont.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp) ON qryExpWkDep.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp) ON qryExpWkHp.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp) ON qryExpWkCouncil.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp) ON qryExpWkLife.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp) ON qryExpWkInt.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp) ON qryExpWkProp.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp) ON qryExpWkOther.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp) ON qryExpWkTel.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp) ON qryExpWkTv.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp) ON qryExpWkWater.lngExpApp = tblApplications.lngApp
WHERE (((tblApplications.bAppEleg)=Yes) AND ((tblApplications.dtmAppGcSub) Is Null));
Well maybe it is pretty horrific!
However it is taking nearly two minutes to load on a fast PC (3.4GHz Pentium 4 with 1Gb RAM) so put it on a basic desktop and it will die.
I did wonder about fragmenting it into four queries and then putting one query at the top of the nest but reckon that's another layer and all the calculations need to be done.
Basically the sub queries are calculating a weekly value based upon input and periodicity of payments - i.e. if quarterly then it divides the payment by 13.
Any thoughts on how I could speed it up?
Thanks in anticipation

I have a report based on a query.
I have this grouped by a jobid.
For each field on the report I have hide duplicates set to yes. for each job id most of the line should be hidden except for a couple of fields (part used and description).
This works in 99% of cases but I occasionally I get the whole line repeated
I've treble checked that the fields are duplicates (they are) and am at a loss what to look for.
