    Drag and drop files into listbox?

    Bit of a shot in the dark here, but I have a listbox in a form that I use to store attachment hyperlinks. I have commands to add an attachment to the listbox, open attachment, delete, etc. Users have been asking though whether it's possible to add attachments to the list box by dragging them...

    Quickly update table which is using the likert scale

    Sorry...so there's 8 fields (columns) titled Question1, Question2, and so on. In each of the 8 fields, the data follows the likert scale. I've attached an example DB to better explain

    Quickly update table which is using the likert scale

    I know, but I'm struggling to design it. I'm sorry, I should have said that. I've only ever used an update query to update one column with one term change (i.e. update any instance of 'smith' to 'johnson' in the 'name' field) There's eight columns with differing terms that need to be updated so...

    Quickly update table which is using the likert scale

    I have a table where there's several columns using the likert scale (Strongly agree, agree, neutral, disagree, strongly disagree). I want to quickly update all the columns so that any instance of 'strongly agree' or 'agree' is changed to 'agreement'. And 'strongly disagree' or 'disagree' is...

    Attachments with Access Front End / SQL Back end

    So I've implemented everything and it works well. The only issue is, my attachments are showing up for every record in the main form despite each attachment having an ID equal to only one record (i.e. propertyID in your example). I made the tblAttachments table have a many to one relationship...

    Suggestions on how to custom order a graph's legend

    I've got a chart for a field where the values follow the Likert scale (Strongly agree, agree, etc.) I'd like for the legend of the graph to follow that ordering (ie. Strongly agree, agree, undecided, disagree, strongly disagree). This is easier for the user to view. Both obv access sorts the...

    Thank you so much for the help. Would you ever be able to attach the DB itself? Specifically the one that uses links?

    Date Serial for 12 months ago?

    I was hoping to use a dateserial function to produce a date that is 12 months prior to today's date. So if today is 11/10/2022, then the date serial function would show 11/11/2021. Basically exactly 365 days prior. Any suggestions?

    Attachments with Access Front End / SQL Back end

    Thank you. The attachments I'm looking to store are emails, PDFs, Word documents. This solution works for that? Storing thousands of attachments locally won't lead to any bloating?

    Can a form used to filter report be used to change the sorting?

    That worked!! Quick question though...let's say I wanted to have another filter in the form as well. Like a 'last name' field? Would that change anything?

    Attachments with Access Front End / SQL Back end

    I have a DB full of customer complaints. It is a SQL backend with Access as a front end. I'd like to have an attachment field for each record. If a complaint stems from a customer letter, we could add it to the record for easy access, etc. I have learned that the specific attachment 'field...

    Can a form used to filter report be used to change the sorting?

    Sorry for the delay!! Could you demonstrate your solution in the attached example DB? I'm not sure how to implement what you are recommending. I only want to have one sort. Ascending or descending by time (with the default being descending).
