    Can't call a function

    I can't use "" because my parameter is a Long. Besides this I suppose that "" is really an argument so the isMissing("") will return false.

    Splitting DB resulted in a front end with greater size than back end

    Reducing the size is not my purpose right now. I'm just experimenting on DB splitting and I assumed that a result of a greater front end shows that something went wrong.

    Splitting DB resulted in a front end with greater size than back end

    Maybe you are right I don't know much about this, but what makes me believe that 30MB comes from data is the comparison between the clean DB (~5MB) and the DB after filling in the data (~30MB).

    Can't call a function

    Thanks for the immediate reply. What do you mean call it from a MessageBox? I don't think posting function will help because after some debugging you can figure out that execution marker never goes inside function.

    Splitting DB resulted in a front end with greater size than back end

    I've just successfully spitted a DB of 30+ MB of size to front end and back end. However the size of front end is roughly the original one and the size of back end is some KBs. Shouldn't have been the exact opposite considering that data are stored to the back end?

    Extend a field on mouseMove

    I'd like to implement the visual effect of extending a (MEMO) field when mouse hovers over it. I mean something like the pop-up menus on websites. One solution I came up with is to use the onMouseMove action and then opening a form at modal view, without any margins containing only a text...

    How to highlight text upon click/enter events

    First of all thanx for the reply I used Text1 name inadvertently as I copy-pasted from another page. It is a combo box indeed and I what I want to accomplish by highlighting it is user to be able to erase whole text by just hitting Delete/Backspace. You see, I use the combobox to move to the...

    Round integer division .5 to 1

    I am not quite sure what the RoundACT Composite Score stands for in your expression, but the formula you need to give the rounded average is Fix((( [Column1]+[Column2]+[Column3]+[Column4] ) / 4) + 0.5)

    Round integer division .5 to 1

    Sorry I was confused with the Fix function. Fix() function trims the decimal point of a number so it's more versatile than round as you can customize it your way to round up or down. So, for your case use Fix(yournumber+0.5) If the numbers you want to round are only positives then you can also...

    Combo Box Help

    Maybe it's because you haven't set the column widths of your combo box? Access tries to display all the fields in a combobox when the focus is set to it, but when focus is lost, only the ones that fit are the... lucky ones to be displayed. Set them to an enough width along with the total width...
