Form/Window Resize To Specified Dimensions?
Jul 5, 2006Hey guys,
I know how to maximize a form when it opens, but I was wondering if there isn't a way to actually shrink down the Access app window to specified dimensions when it opens the form? I'm trying to write a dimension-specific app, so there is no distortion what-so-ever. thanks!
Query: Photo Dimensions
Jun 21, 2006Please help!
Does anyone know what command will allow Access to pull Dimensions from Explorer into a Query?
I wish to have a query that will illustrate the exact Dimension of an image file (Jpeg). This will enable me to filter all images which do not meet my internet standard of 100x100 dpi and/or 300x300 dpi.
Your help is much appreciated. :D
Forms With 2 Dimensions (looking Like A Spreadsheet)
Dec 10, 2005Hello,
I'm trying to build a personnal budget application.
I need to build a form that looks like a grid.
On the first column, you will see the different budgets elements
On the top line (headers), you should see the different months of the comming year.
I already managed to build the necessary tables (with 2 keys in the table source for the form).
My questions are the following:
1) how can I build a forms that looks like a spreadsheet, proposing me every cells from the start (not only the cells that i have filled before)?
2) how can I make for this form to be dynamic ? This means that, if I add a budget element in the budget elements table, how can I make the form to be adapted automatically, adding a line under the others, for every months?
I have asked severall other forums, no one could answer me.
thanks for your help.

Possible To Enter Data In Three Dimensions?
Sep 30, 2013I am relatively new to this. I am trying to design a database and need to store data in three dimensions. I have a list of faculty members at our university and need to record data about their salaries and the courses they teach. However, I also need to keep a record for each semester as well. I would like to have the faculty + salaries + courses laid out in a "Fall 2012 Semester" table, for example, and then stack the "Spring 2013" semester table on top of it, etc to make one three-dimensional table.
Otherwise, it appears that I will have to create a separate table for each semester and repeat the list of faculty members.

Form Opens To Wrong Record
Sep 21, 2006I have a form based on a query. The query sorts records by ID number. When I open the form, it opens to a record that is not the lowest ID number. It's the same record each time that it opens to, but it's not the correct record There is no filter or sort order on the form, and it seems like starting with record 2 it is sorting correctly. any ideas? thanks.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWrong Box On Form Attached To Wheel Ball
Feb 1, 2005I have one form which is created from one table.
I open the form and if i scroll with the mouse it doesnt move through records, it stays on the first record but amends the details for that record in the second box.
any idea how i can set the scroll mouse function to browse through the records rather than the project box, which amends which project that record is ascoiated with.
Thanks
Switchboard Opens Form In Wrong View
Feb 8, 2005I have designed a form which I want the users to see in Datasheet form.
In the properties, "Default view" is "datasheet" and "Views Allowed" is "datasheet"
When I open it directly, it opens as a datasheet.
But when the Switchboard opens it, it comes up as a Single Form. Infuriating !
What to do ?

Currency Field In Form - Updating Wrong
Aug 12, 2013I have a question about entering in currency on a field in one of my forms in my DB.
Essentially the problem I'm having is this: Upon entering a dollar amount, for example say I want to add $350,621.
It shows up like this: $35,062,1
That happens because it is filling in left to right when I tab down to the field, but if it fills in right to left I'm sure it'll fill properly.
General :: Form Starting At Wrong Position Of A Page
May 9, 2013I am a newbie to ms access and forms and I have a small problem with a form. The solution has lots of different forms with different tabs for each section. This particular tab has a few sub forms in it. When I switch into the specific tab in question, the screen moves down ever so slightly and I always have to scroll up to see all the other tab headings.Is there a way to do something by code or a property setting I can use to make the page start from the top without users having to scroll up each time?
I hope I have explained myself clearly enough, if not I will be more than happy to provide more info.
Wrong Record Selected From Macro Of Open Form Button
May 1, 2012I have a parent form showing some of the contents of a single record in a parent table. This form contains a button that opens a specific subform (using an IF statement based on the contents of another field in the parent table/form. There are actually any of 8 child forms/tables that could be selected and the related record is in only one of them. The relation between the tables is based on the PK of the parent table and the related FK in the child table. and the data is correct in all tables.
My problem is that when I run this button on the parent form/table it returns the appropriate form/table, but displays the first record rather than the related record. In the past (using this same process) I have been successful in getting to the right record by fiddling with the where statement (sometimes putting in a equal sign or taking it out fixes the problem). However, no matter what I do to the Where statement nothing works. I have not yet placed the final else condition for where the form selection field (VMValIdentType] is empty yet as there is no point at this time.
Here are the button macro contents:
If [VMValIdentType] = "Software"
OpenForm
Form Name: tmpVMValSW
View: Form
Filter Name:

What's Wrong?
Jun 9, 2006I purchased a copy of Office 2003, on Ebay, for less than half the price it normally sells for. I created databases, which work well on my computer. However, when I copy them over to the office computer from my computer, via Flash memory stick, the program does not run. The message seems to indicate a problem with registration. When I installed Access, it asked me for a registration key, which I did provide. After that it worked-not activation process. Does this mean that you can only use the computer you created the database on to run it, or that I do not have a proper version of Access 2003? I cannot transfer, from my home computer, to the office computer. Is this Microsoft paranoia again?
Subsequent uninstalls and reinstalls of the program did not ask for the installation key.
What should happen? I would like to resolve this major problem and your help will be greatly appreciated. The program is flaky. Also, Switchboard does not work-must use Option Box.
These questions most user must know about initial installation and copying mdb files to other computers -please reply.

cui = DLookup("[CodUnicInregistrare]", "[tblPersoaneJuridice]", "[NumarInregistrareRegComertului]='" & Me!subfrmTipVersus!txtNumarInregistrare & "'")
i have a string variable denoted by cui and i need it to take value from table tblPersoaneJuridice from field CodUnicInregistrare. CodUnicInregistrare and NumarInregistrareRegComertului is text.
Would Someone Tell Me What's Wrong With This
Jun 14, 2007Have not coded for about 5 years and need a little refresher. Can't remember what I need to do. Thanks
Dim SelectedCompany As String
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
Dim Cn As ADODB.Connection
Dim sSql As String
Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset
Set Cn = New ADODB.Connection
SelectedCompany = Me!cboCompanyName.Text
sSql = "select Customername, AddressLine1, AddressLine2, AddressLine3, AddressLine4, AddressLine5, AddressLine6 from customers where "
sSql = sSql & "CompanyName = '" & SelectedCompany & "'"
rs.Open sSql, Cn, adOpenStatic, adLockReadOnly
this last line fails with error "No value given for one or more required parameters."
The code is executed when someone selects something in a combo box on a form in an access database.
Thanks

Am I Doing This Wrong
Oct 4, 2007I think I'm just tired, and not seeing what to do here.
I have my main table.
MainID PK
bunch of other fields...
I also have a 'created by table'.
Createdby_ID PK
User ID
Main ID
Date_created.
I also have a user table, with a list of all the users.
User_ID PK
User_Name.
Is this the right way to setup these tables?
Only 1 person can create any paticular record.
I want it to be required tha whoever creates the record selects their name and dates it.

Could anyone possibly tell me why this isn't working? Probably something stupid i've done bus still.
When i run it, I am getting the error message "Query input must contain at least one table or query" yet i've told it to use tblAccessLog so i'm just confused.

Where Have I Gone Wrong!!
Oct 23, 2007I made a number of changes to a DB that was working fine (normalised further). So what's wrong? I have a number of forms (for my sample DB I have stripped down to just one, if I can resolve for this I can apply to others).
qryENTRY_COMPUTERS
ENTRY COMPUTER FORM
The user adds a new computer then selects the Computer Make (qryLOOKUP_COMPUTER_SUPPLIER) & Computer Model (qryLOOKUP_COMPUTER_MODELS).
This now returns error 'recordset is not updateable'.
The query on which the form is based is incorrect (qryENTRY_COMPUTERS). Previously I was able to add tblSupplier & tblSupplierProducts to the query then add field ProductDescription fom tblSupplierProducts to the query. This allows users to select a value from cboComputerModelID (ProductID), field ProductDescription then displays the related descriptive value for the ProductID selected (value remain on screen when user naviagtes between records.
I have attached a sample database (access 2002-2003 format).
I am sure the answer is staring me in the face but I have now spent hours trying to resolve!!
Help very much appreciated.
Phil.
Update: One difference I can see is that on the query 'qryENTRY_COMPUTERS' where i have added tblSupplierProducts & tblSupplier the join properties are in reverse i.e. Left Table Name = tblSupplierProducts Rigth Table Name = tblComputers Left Column Name = ProductID Right Column Name = ProductID ????
I can't edit this.......................

What Is It I Am Doing Wrong??
Jul 20, 2005I am trying to create a form that has an unbound text box which row source is a field in a table. I have created a subform that gets the records from another table.
Both tables are linked in a one to many relationship. When a user selects a record in the cmbo box i want the table to show only those records which are related.
This obviously didnt happen. So i changed the subform instead of a table as its source but a query, then in the criteria of a query just set it to look at the cmbo on the form. After the cmbo was updated i got the subform to requery.
This worked fine, but i was unable to make any changes or updates but with no particular error.
When inserting a subform using the wizard i do remember coming across a section of a wizard that asks me if i would like to tie in the subform with something on the form. However this part of the wizard just doesnt show. Maybe i was using a different version of access for this wizard?? i am currently using Access XP.
Am i really going MAD!!?
Please Tell Me What Is Wrong
Aug 30, 2005I'm trying to mess with a combo box where when one user selects a value a form opens up. This is the code I'm typing in but I keep getting a syntax error
DoCmd.OpenForm(Phone,[View As AcFormView=acNormal],[DataMode As AcFormOpenDataMode=acFormAdd],[WindowMode As AcWindowMode = acWindowNormal],[OpenArgs])
What Am I Doing Wrong?
Aug 15, 2006Hi,
Trying to make the selection in a combo box on frm1 be the filter on frm2.
I found this example by searching the form, but it's not working for me
Option Compare Database
Private Sub Command3_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Command3_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "form_lastnametotal_exludeholidayform"
stLinkCriteria = "[Employee_Name]=" & Me!cboMyCombo
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
Exit_Command3_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_Command3_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Command3_Click
End Sub
I get an 'the openform action was canceled' error?
Any ideas?
The second form is based on a query
Thanks
