Hi, People. I have a centrally located works database on my server. this database. Basically gets leads and sales put into it. I.e name ,address , kitchen, and commision and value of deal.
For some reason a couple of the fields in 2 of the leads have changed a few of the input criteria to chinese text and left some the same, But the money values are all just random very large numbers.
has anyone seen this before and/or is it something to do with a virus on a users machine?
I have a report which when I open it by clicking the button in the form shows what looks like Chinese text in the memo field. To open the report the following is in the event properties for the referencing button
Code: Private Sub cmdPrintSumReg_Click() Dim strWhere As String If Me.Dirty Then 'Save any edits. Me.Dirty = False
[Code] ...
When I open the same report from the reports menu on the left of the database it is just fine. But obviously it is showing information for all contracts and not the any one contract.
I haven't changed anything in the table that contains the memo field and this only started happening yesterday afternoon after using this db for over a year.
I found an earlier post in this forum with a similar problem but the only difference I see is that the user changed the field from a text to a memo. I haven't.
I am using Access 2007. I recently converted my table field from text to memo. When I run a query and report linked to the qry the memo text is displayed as Chinese character or square box (if field is empty). In some forum posts this is shown as a font bug e.g. with Calibri. I changed from Calibri to Arial as this was reported to correct the bug. It did not work.
My field is set to Grow and Shrink, and table font is Rich Text also as mentioned in other posts. Still not working out.
I have a db with many reports and suddenly one of the reports, instead of printing text it comes out with characters that look like Chinese! I have tried deleting the report and then importing the same report from a back up copy to no avail. I have tried renaming the report - no good. I have tried compact & repair, nope. I went to a backup from a month ago and the report ran once ok but when I made some minor design changes to bring the report to it's current state, saved it and ran it again...back to Chinese!!! Any help greatly appreciated..this really sucks!
One of my database users set up a new record a few days ago, entered all the information etc. He's now gone to have a look at it and it appears to have been translated into Chinese or something! The text fields have changed to things similar to 潩のㇾ′敆湲慤敬, the autonumber field has changed to 520099398 whereas it should be 5702 I think. The date entered has changed from 22/7/05 to 30/12/1899. Any ideas what the problem is or what could cause it? :confused:
Also, I've just been taking another look, and although the autonumber field is showing as 520099398, if I open the table and filter on that field with 5702, it filters down to that record. If I filter on the date entered using 22/7/05 it also retrieves that record, despite it showing 30/12/1899.
But in my access database I have a SQL code in which excel sheet opens automatically with required data. Now problem is one column in the excel sheet since this morning is showing up in Chinese instead of English. I don't know what to do.
I have a query that pulls a "fromdate" and a "todate" from a form, and runs a series of queries then a report. The first query is an append query. If I choose to just view the data, the two date fields in the query have chinese characters in them. There is no memo field, there is no Totals. I have reduced the query down to 3 fields: from, to, and "ticket number." Both the from and to fields are blank, until I click in one of them and 2 chinese characters appear. I have done a C&R, I have decompiled, I am completely stumped.
I imported two excel spreadsheets that I was going to have to do some quick work on (separately), call them A and B. I used A first, made the queries and the report and it worked great. Instead of redoing all of the code to look for B, I renamed A to Ax and renamed B to A. Everything broke then. I renamed them back to the original, I deleted them, nothing fixed it.
I have 4 fields that are unbound on a form. img1 img2 img3 img4..When these are entered they are all combined and autofill another unbound textbox = imagename.. what i would like to do is from this unbound textbox 'imagename' ..i would like to populate a textbox that IS bound called FileName
[Event Procedure] Private Sub imagename_Click() Me.imagename = Me.FileName End Sub
In my form's text box I have noticed that I can;t write paragraphs ie use the TAB key to start a new line. If I use rich text I assume this will be possible. But are there any disadvantages to using rich text?
We need to move rich text from an Access memo field to a Word text box. So far the best Ive been able to come up with is in the code below. In this code pprs!What is a record set field of a table memo field that is bound to a text box enabled for rich text. The rich text seems to be stored as html as so I can get word to convert it by enclosing it in html tags.
Dim What As Word.Shape Set What = doc.Shapes.AddTextbox(msoTextOrientationHorizontal , doc.PageSetup.LeftMargin, 225, 534, 0) Dim sPath As String sPath = "G:Temp.html" Open sPath For Output As 1 Print #1, "<HTML>" & pprs!What & " </HTML>" Close #1 What.TextFrame.TextRange.InsertFile (sPath)
I have a single field in a table called "Client Contact", where users enter a semicolon between the name, address, and city state & zip. My reason for this was so we could copy client info with a single copy and paste (like from an email). But, on the final report, it needs to have these three parts split up into different lines, or even different textboxes. I can't find a way to do that.
My database has Main form and a Sub form. On main form i place one unbound text box named investigations. In subform of which datasheet there is a column named TestCode. I want unbound text box (Investigations) to display row values which selected in a column (TestCode) of subform.for example:Investigation field should display "CBC,HB,ALP".
I have a column which contains "text digit text" as "AAA 222 BBB". The numbers of letters or digits can vary.
I need to SELECT the column which contains digits in a specific interval. For Example I have "DFS 673 JKK" "A 3454 LJLJ" "SD 854 JKLJD"
I need to SELECT the column which contains 600 < Digit < 700 the result of the query in this case would be "DFS 673 JKK" because 673 is between 600 and 700.
I have a form on which there is a series of text box controls relating to different frequencies. At the moment I enter a value in to each of these manually.
However, I would like to have an unbound text box where I can paste in all the values (6 or 8 of them) from excel and then press a button and they would be copied in to the individual boxes.
So far I have my design:
I'm not sure where to start with regard to the code as I don't know how to handle delimited text - is it column delimited in excel?
I imagine some sort of loop, such as a do until will be required but again not sure.
I have a Form Display Data in my Access Database, which is working really well. However, users was asking if there is a way we can make Font Color Could/would change if The text in A field or Any field in my display form contained the word "SAD or MAD". Is there code for such thing in display form?..
Is it possible to use find and replace to modify text in report design - or else is there something else I can do to get the same effect? I have a really useful report and I want to modify it for use with a different dataset. To do that I will need to change the text in over 150 text boxes. I have seven different fields which each occur over 20 times in the control source formulas in the text boxes, because they are used in different ways in different calculations. If this was excel I could do a simple find and replace to change e.g. every reference to fieldname OLD to fieldname NEW, but I cannot see how to do that within access report so am haveing to click on each text box in turn, go to properties and edit the text box .
I am trying to switch to a more general naming system in the modified report so then I will be able to assign data with the required fieldnames for the report within a query. But the report I am starting with has field names based on years 2013, 2014, 2015 etc.I want a quick way to change each reference to those field names to my more generic new field names.
I'm trying to pull a date from a table into a text box on a form tab control using DLookup and I just can't figure out what is wrong with my DLookup expression:
=DLookUp("DateOrdered","tDateOrdered","PrNumber=" & [PrNumber]) ----- (DateOrdered is short date, PrNumber is text, db is split Access 2013)
Whats missing in this expression? I've tried every criteria variant I could find but to no avail.
Is there a way to make just part of the text in a text box bold, or to use different font sizes in the same text box?
Something like this:
--------------------------------- Heading in bold: description in regular (not bold) (a smaller height line used as a line space) Another "normal" line a larger height line a normal line....all in one text box! ---------------------------------
One thing I'd like to be able to do is to specify the line height of a blank line in a text box. I'm using carriage returns created with: Chr(13) & Chr(10). I could see defining the font size of a hidden character, but I'd need to know how to assign a font size to a piece of the text in a font box.
how can i disable a textfield or two in a form when the textbox is unchecked also how do i add a default value for it while the textbox itself is disabled, can i get away with it by adding a default value on the textbox?
I'm trying to figure out at what point an error message occurs while a database is closing. This problem only occurs if someone clicks on the red close button on the top right of the screen when there are several forms open. If the user exists normally there is NO problem.
I am attempting to use the print statement to write to a text file to track what is happening as the database shuts down. Unfortunately, the open (print) statement, when issued, zaps any prior contents which precludes having a full printed record. I am hoping for a print syntax that would allow appending.
Code: Open "ErrorReport.txt" for Output as #1 Appended text to the file to show what is happening in that event. Close #1
The program, in closing, does stop with an error message that a certain file can't be found. But when I click on debug, the program simply closes. I have also commented out VBA references to the file that can't be found, but the error still persists .
I have a form where I want a textbox [txtMaxOrdLimit] to be visible only if another text box on the same form [PaNumber] contains the letter D in the string. This is the code I have on the forms On Current property but I'm missing something because textbox [txtMaxOrdLimit] doesn't show on the form at all.
If Me.PaNumber = "*D" Then Me.txtMaxOrdLimit.Visible = True Else Me.txtMaxOrdLimit.Visible = False End If
