A long time ago I found this code to mask the password in an Inputbox. It needs to go in a module. Option Compare Database Option Explicit '//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// 'Password masked inputbox 'Allows you to hide characters entered in a VBA Inputbox...

This winter we had a cold spell and some of my bushes in the yard died. I had to remove them while others needed to be trimmed all the way to the ground. My yard is not that big but there is plenty of space for some trees I want to plant later this year. I'm thinking some some cypress and a...

Why are you posting this in an Access forum? Catalina

The reason I wanted it in Access format is so I can use it for a complete application including the ability for the user to add notes etc. This is a request from the person I want to get it for. There are other tools, I know, but that's not what I'm looking for. Catalina

Yes Pat, that is the idea. A few years ago I had a table containing all verses. I was going to turn it into a searchable database for a friend but I can't find the mdb file anywhere. Must have deleted it by mistake. I know there is ready to go software for the same purpose. Catalina

I think I just found the answer: =DCount("*","[tblPeople]","DateAdd('ww', 0, [PE_Added]) Between Date() And DateAdd('d', -6, Date())") Catalina

I use this to count the records that have been entered today: =DCount("*","tblPeople","PE_Added = #" & Date() & "#") Now I want to count the records entered in the current week. Tried some suggestions I found here and there such as: ?DCount("*","tblPeople","[PE_Added]>=" &...

I'm trying to find a complete Bible (any free version) in Access format. I found a few links but they point to a download from Simtel, which just shut down about 2 weeks ago. Anyone here to help me out? Thanks Catalina

Make it less prone to corruption. Catalina

Great, he has helped me out several times with good advice. I'm happy to see him here.

Just can't resist making another remark. I also noticed on freelance sites that often the scope of the project changes after bids have been put in, or the owner is very vague about what needs to be done. Very hard to make a fair quote if you don't know what kind, and how much work is needed...

Pat, I see what you mean. How about using a program like Camtasia, CamStudio or similar to make a video presentation of your Access application and make it available to a potential client. I think that a starting freelancer is also more likely to do something extra for potential leads just...

Some people ask for a sample database so they can check your style and capabilities. How about sending a generic sample, just to show your qualities but not useable for the posted project? That way they don't get something they need for free. And such a sample can be used over and over again...

Elsewhere on this forum I wrote about a project offered on a freelance site. The owner responded to my initial bid, gave me some more info about the application he needed and asked for a detailed proposal. I started writing immediately and before I could finished it, the project was awarded to...

OK, one more. This has happened to me twice now. I see a project that suits my abilities and submit a bid almost immediately. I get a message back with additional info about the project and the request for a proposal based on the extra information. Right away I write a very detailed...

One more remark about this, and then I'll quit. Especially on Freelancer.com I see projects that are likely homework assignments. For some reason (I can think of a few) the student doesn't want to do it him/herself and tries to find someone who will take care of it for a few bucks. Just saw...

Is there a question?

Pat, I couldn't agree more about Elance. Just recently someone needed an application developed for a max budget of $500. There were about 20 bids, with an average of around $400. It was something I could handle, so I offered to do it for $375. The job was awarded to a guy in the UK who wants...

Look into Conditional Formatting. Catalina
