    Good question :) I was just playing around with it and couldn't figure it out. I would assume that the file dropdown in Access is actually a Windows setting so I think you should look there. Can I ask why you are looking to hide this?

    Defining DATE variable

    Thanks, I did it all backwards and just defined a textbox value as Date() and then named that textbox txtTODAY and referenced that. I will go back later and redo, but thanks for the advice!

    Defining DATE variable

    Okay, I am an idiot. :( Lets say that I screwed up and used DATE as a variable in a form module. Then I realized I should not have done that, and switched it to DATE_INPUT, and now I want to reset DATE to the default access value of todays date? How do I do that? I still have this variable...

    slow designing ... maybe bug?

    Hey everyone, In my Access 2003 prof. when I go to design a report, anytime I create or modify a text box, things freeze for about 5 sec or more. I tested it on an empty database and I get the same result so I don't think it is an issue of too much data. Anyone have any suggestions or ever...

    Forms - Tab Controls

    Cut and paste. The tabcontrol object is weird that way. When you drag , it just puts it on top of the cntrl.
