    Email when new data entered

    When I had to do the same task, I just attached my email action to a "Submit" button. But that would only work if you're requiring your user to click submit to change the data.

    SendObject problem

    Has anyone come across similar code using Groupwise? We use Groupwise as our email client here. This code looks great...I've seen similar examples and would love to have that level of customization, but most of the computers here don't have Outlook, and none use it as their main email client...

    SendObject problem

    Again I thank you for your quick reply modest. Unfortunately, I left out the detail that I am working in Access 97. I think as soon as I get done posting this I'm going to try it in Access 2000 just to see whether it's an Access issue or otherwise, since my 2000 installation has SP3. However...

    SendObject problem

    I have also tried that. acSendNoObject is implied by leaving it blank. As I was looking into this I realized that sendObject isn't working on other databases either...ones that have been used over and over again....so I think it has something to do with Windows Messaging. *sigh*

    SendObject problem

    I'm trying to use DoCmd.SendObject to send an email alert when a user adds a new record to a certian table. Problem is that when I run my little email subroutine, all I get is an error message that says: "Object doesn't support this property or method" Here's what my code looks like...if...

    Why .ldb stays open???

    I've had a lot of problems with this as well. One thing that helps is to look in the .ldb file and see what computers are still listed there. Once I figure that out, a lot of times going to their computer and logging them out of Windows will get them out. That works 'most' of the time. I...

    Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression

    Wow. Ever have one of those moments where you just want to kick yourself? I opened this up again this morning to look at it and there it was staring me in the face. In Form properties my filter property for some reason read " AND Completed = 0". So since I was doing things mostly dynamically...

    Have you considered using ODBC and then linking your database to the text file?

    Tougher Question: Pausing Code/Goto

    What kind of errors are you getting? I find this situation awkward. Since VB is event-driven there has to be a good way to control the flow. Can you post the code from your main form so we can see what's going on?

    Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression

    I'm getting the above error message when I try to open a form. The error started occurring when I tried to have two filters to control the form content. One filter is for items checked "Completed" and the other filter is for any information that was included in a Search. The actual...

    newbee Printing to different printers

    Hardcoded printer path Is there a way to hardcode the printer path? I have an application that is going to be used by multiple users on a network but I want a certain button to always print a report for the Tool Crib guy on his printer.

    User-level security using a module

    Solution Looks like I managed to answer my own question. For future reference, this is how I did it. On my read-only form (which uses the AllowEdits property to disable user input) I simply built an event on whatever field I wanted to work with. On GotFocus, the event sets the "AllowEdits"...

    User-level security using a module

    I already posted this question in the Forms forum, but I thought I might be more likely to get an answer here. I apologize if this violates forum etiquette. I have a module that authenticates users and controls who has full or read-only access to certain forms. My problem is this; things such...

    User-level security using a module

    I have a module that authenticates users and controls who has full or read-only access to certain forms. My problem is this; things such as combo boxes and checkboxes that are meant to be used for any user are disabled in read-only mode. I was thinking that I could use the tag property on my...

    Read-only, protect a form...

    Can this be abstracted? Is there a way to accomplish this within a module? I want to abstract the enabling/disabling of controls so that the module can look at the Tag property of each control and use it to decide whether or not to enable it.

    Multi User / Level Security

    Write your own security Module One way to do security on an Access 97 database is to start with a modal login form and write a module that controls priveleges. The one I did simply authenticates a user to allow access into the database and then opens forms in read-only mode if the user is not...
