    pop menu on mouse right clic

    My digging around has found that these menus created in A2003 do work in A2007 on wards. However it seems that one can not longer use the same method in A7 onward. The solution that I came across says to use A2003 to create the menus and then import them into A2007+. Whilst this may work it...

    DAO - Error 424: Object Required

    Got it!!!! The problem was quite simply that one needs to have dbOpenDynaset defined in OpenRecordSet. I don't know why as it's not shown in any examples I've seen...anyway solved my problem. Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Dim db As DAO.Database Dim CustPayTerms, strSearchName As...

    A Better way the DLookup?

    Thank you both. @pbaldy I do seem to owe you an apology! When I implemented your autofil for use upon user selection when I moved back and forward the correct information was displayed much to my surprize! Access clearly reruns the combobox control source each time a record is displayed. one...

    A Better way the DLookup?

    Thanks pbaldy. 'Autofil' looks neat but it would only seem to work when the user selects something from a list. I will use this for user data entry on record creation. The issue that I see would be displaying the customer information as the user move through the records not only displaying...

    how to access a text box on a report

    Thanks Bob. looks the same as mine coding wise. To help me better understand I added a new text box on yours in the header, changed the code, it worked. 'Played' a bit more all worked fine, so I understood the mechanics... Still could not see what was wrong with mine so I deleted the text box...

    how to access a text box on a report

    Thanks. I have tried as suggested but I still get a runtime error ‘You can't assign a value to this object', debug still highlights 'Me.ReportType = Me.OpenArgs' regardless of which event I use. any thoughts?

    how to access a text box on a report

    Thanks. But what I had omitted was that the value for ReportTitle will be based on a flag which will change as the Form (an order entry form) changes its status as progresses. So depending on the status when the user clicks the print button the value passed via OpenArgs will have its value set -...
