    Trying to get started.

    And the best thing about Stophers suggestion (which is right of course) is that designing a Form would be very straightforward and would look almost exactly like the paperform you're using now. So the database will look and feel real friendly

    access storing value rather than code

    When I first started out in access, I thought it was okay to have LookUps in Tables because Access lets you do that - and it must know what it's doing - I thought(wrongly!). Since being on this forum, you chaps have put me straight on that.

    Calculate Hours and minutes - but not!

    Dave – you have very made my day THANK YOU For the benefit of anyone following – here’s what I did to get a sum of seconds in a query to appear as an amount of time – like 2 hours 20 minutes. Table1 has a PKField and Field1. Field1 contains a number representing seconds. There is only 1...

    Calculate Hours and minutes - but not!

    Thank you Gemma-the-husky. Mod looks like the right answer - Will report back when I know more. Sorry I've not put up sample data Plog - it's a reasonable request - and you asked me twice! But my Objects don't have simple names like Table1, Query1. I was afraid of hiding my question in a sea...

    Calculate Hours and minutes - but not!

    Sorry Plog. Thanks for answering. Didn't want to witter on. Table1 has a PK field (autonumber of course) and a Number field which holds a number representing seconds. There is only 1 record in Table1. Table2 has a FK related to Table1 so that all records in Table 2 have the number of seconds...

    Calculate Hours and minutes - but not!

    How can I make a Hyperlink Button

    Thank you Pat - I did exactly what you said - it works great! Here's what I did if anyone is interested. TextBox1 contains a Hyperlink (that's unique to each Record). But, I want a Button instead of a Text Box - because it'll look nicer. As Pat suggested, I looked up "FollowHyperlink Method"...

    How to prevent double booking?

    You need to know if a particular time is already booked before entering a booking time to your database. Otherwise, the Conflicting Entry MsgBox will pop up everytime to you stab in a conflicting time, until one (eventually) sticks. So, I imagine, you might have a Form set Continuous showing...

    Date filter problem

    The link doesn't quite solve the problem - but it took me near enough to find the rest of the way. Here's what I did for the benefit of anyone else reading this. I want to open Form1 from an OnClick event in Form0 and filter by date. The Wizard SEEMS to write the VBA for me BUT DOESN'T...

    How can I make a Hyperlink Button

    Thank you for your answer Pat, but my list of Format options for a Text Box is different to a Button - so I can't make it look even close! How about a Button which fires the Hyperlink Field? Is that a daft idea? What might be the VBA for that?

    How can I make a Hyperlink Button

    May I ask, how can I make a Hyperlink Button on my Form? Of course, my records have a Hyperlink Field. Adding a Hyperlink Field to my Form works fine, but it doesn't look right. Instead I want a button without the http://www... text written in it. I looked at the Hyperlink Field's "On...
