I have a form that I would like to update a picture on using VBA. The source of the picture path is in part a query that is not bound to the form. So far I have the following code that is pretty much working, but with a couple flaws.
Code: Private Sub Form_Current() LoadDefaultPicture End Sub Sub LoadDefaultPicture() Dim db As DAO.Database
[Code] ....
This is working. However, when I change the record the picture flashes the current picture once and then loads the new picture. It is like it reloads the current picture then loads the new one. I'm hoping there is a way to get rid of the flash.
Also, the code fails here: strDefaultPictureName = rs.Fields("AttachmentName")
When the query does not return a record. I can definitely fix this by adding an if statement to check for a record, but I'm kind of perplexed at why it is failing at that line. I would expect it to assign an empty string to that variable name and then fail on the next command where I try and set the ".Picture" property of the image.
i have database with products and i want to add a picture for each one In the table of products i have a field "Image path" D:dun.jpeg how can i insert this text-path from the form and not manually from table? for example :with a button ADD IMAGE from the form and browse file.......
Code: Option Compare Database Private Sub CreateCrosstab_Click() Dim dbs As dao.Database, rst As Recordset, rstInsert As dao.Recordset Set dbs = CurrentDb Call DeleteTable("FinalTable")
I am trying to link an images (.png) onto a form. I have a folder of all the images I want but I want the path to be relative. So that if I move the access file and the images folder to a new location, it will still work.
In the properties for the image, It works fine as C:UsersjohnDesktopimage1.png but what I am looking for is the ability to use "imagesimage1.png" as the file will always be in that relative folder to the db.
What is the correct syntax for this? putting image1.png in the same directory and just using image1.png works, but this won't be very tidy with 100+ images.
I know from searching it is possible through VBA by getting the root directory of the folder and appending the filename. Don't really want to go this root. I also don't particularly want to create a table to store the images or links.
Hello. I've searched and read a few threads concerning image controls on forms and haven't been able to find a solution to my problem (yet). Anyway, I have a form with two image controls (imgOK1 & imgOK2). The previous and current setting of the "Picture" property for both images is set to "C:MOMGraphicsfilename.bmp". The location of my images has changed and will change for each user which is "C:Documents and Settingsuser.nameMOMGraphicsfilename.bmp". I'm using the following code to set the .Picture property on form load:
Dim ImgPath ImgPath = "C:Documents and Settings" & Environ("username") & "My DocumentsMOMGraphics" Me.imgOK1.Picture = ImgPath & "imgButton-OK1_25%.bmp" Me.imgOK2.Picture = ImgPath & "imgButton-OK2_25%.bmp"
When the form is opened, an error stating that the image located at "C:MOMGraphicsfilename.bmp" cannot be found; once for each image control. Then the form loads and .Picture properties appear to be set correctly as they are displayed fine. I've tried to clear the .Picture properties for both image controls using the properties editor but the original path returns as soon as the property loses focus. Is there a way to programatically set this property and make it stick so the errors are not displayed?
I'm using GHudson's A Better Mouse Trap code. It works great. However, I added other code from http://www.databasedev.co.uk/image-form.html to get and save the path to image files and now I think there is a conflict between the sets of code.
The Images tab on the form frm_CreateNewSpec is where I have problems. The error messages are definitely from Mouse Trap...I just don't know how to resolve the problem.
I've probably missed something simple, but don't know what.
Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated by this novice.
I have a piece of code that I'm using to display an image on a report based on a path saved to each record. the code is:
Code: Option Compare Database Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) If IsNull(Me.ImagePath) Then Me.ImgPic.Picture = "O:BellinghamIntranetProductionLabelsNo Label.bmp" Else Me.ImgPic.Picture = Me.ImagePath End If End Sub
It seems like every few months the code crashes access and then never works again. When I debug, the part that is highlighted is:
Code: Me.ImgPic.Picture = Me.ImagePath
The only way i've found to correct it is to delete the report and the module and copy them back in from a backup database. What could be causing this code to crash or how to stabalize my database to prevent this from happening again.

I'm in desperate need of help and want to know if it is possible to load an image on a form once a hyper link is created.
For example, I have a form with a hyper link to an image created, currently, when you click on the hyperlink, it opens the picture in the browser, can you change it so that it loads teh image embedded into the form instead of loading it into a browser?
After some help from one of the threads here I managed to install a Browse button in a form that inserts a file path to a text box. What I need is the folder path from that file path in another text box. For example if the file path is C:Documents and SettingsmixupSketchesowl.jpg
I would like to get either C:Documents and SettingsmixupSketches Or, C:Documents and SettingsmixupSketches in my second text box.
I do not have much experience with Access; therefore please give a little detail on how to accomplish this.
I have a split dbase and have been running the backend on a server which was linked using a mapped network drive letter and path. Now I'm trying to connect it to a path like this. Is it possible?
I have a button that allows a user to select a file using the windows select file dialog using the following code:
Dim fd As FileDialog Set fd = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)
With fd .Title = "Select A Text file to Import" .Filters.Add "Text File", "*.txt" .FilterIndex = 1 .AllowMultiSelect = False .InitialFileName = CurrentProject.path result = .Show If (result <> 0) Then Me!txt_path = Trim(.SelectedItems.Item(1)) End If End With
Is there a way that I can capture the path of the file they select in a separate text box?
I went to the Microsoft knowledge base (304408) and found a routine that automatically logs off users with a short warning. It works fine, but depends on the presence or absence of a small text file which is named chkfile.ozx. The file is referenced in a form timer function as follows:
Dim StrFilename as String strfilename = Dir("c:MyDirectorychkfile.ozx")
The function then tests for its presence and does its thing. You trigger the logoff by going in as sysop and changing the name of the file so it is no longer found.
The problem I have is that on the network, I use the backend file on the network and different users map different letters to it. I get around this by linking using UNC eg. \ServerNameSYSData_be.mdb.
I put the chkfile.ozx into this directory since all users presumably have access to it.
I tried changing the trigger function to
strfilename = Dir("\ServerNameSYSchkfile.ozx")
but the program doesn't recognize the presence of the file. When I map it as "F:SYSchkfile.ozx" it works, but since all users will not be mapped to "F", it really isn't a solution.
Does anyone know the proper syntax to include in the Dir method for UNC naming?
I nave a code which allows the user to upload a file to a folder "images". I want to be able to record the filename and path in a table called "attachments". But I am not sure how. Can anyone help
Private Sub Command0_Click()
Dim FD As FileDialog Dim Name As String Dim Name2 As String Dim Pathx As String Dim Path As String Pathx = Me.Application.CurrentProject.Path & "Images" Path = Me.Application.CurrentProject.Path Set FD = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker) Dim vrtSelectedItem As Variant With FD .AllowMultiSelect = False 'Add a filter that includes GIF and JPEG images and make it the second item in the list. .Filters.Add "PDF", "*.pdf, 1"
'Sets the initial file filter to number 2. '.FilterIndex = 2
If .Show = -1 Then For Each vrtSelectedItem In .SelectedItems Name = Dir(vrtSelectedItem, vbSystem) Name2 = Pathx & Name If Name2 = vrtSelectedItem Then Else FileCopy vrtSelectedItem, Pathx & Name End If

I have very very basic skills in Access and have been attempting to work with a database that a previous employee from my office designed. The other day another person in my office moved the folder on our office network that contains the link to open the database and today when I entered our database and tried to click on one of the forms to enter data it is telling me that the path name for that form cannot be found. How do I edit the path name for a form?
Can somebody guide me for hyperlink in form field. I have seen northwind db sample emplyee form and exactly I want this for my db. but not image but the link for *.pdf file.
Here issue is I have 400 documents and I want code which will automatically pick up the path of file using the id or number of form field. Means one designated folder and access field will pick up path matching the number.
