    Historical Data By Month

    Your thought about building the table with four columns was the correct one. Change the table design and your query will be easy. Generally, you want data in tables to grow vertically not horizontally. As an aside, where is this summary data coming from? If you have a table with the order...

    Add outlook entry to non default calendar

    I think you are using the wrong object and method to get the desired folder. The getdefualtfolder method does just that gets the default folder of a particular folder type. To get a non-default folder I think you need to use the folders object

    converting an a2007 project to linked tables

    I have an Access 2007 Data Project (ADP) database using a Ms Sql 2012Express db server. I know this is not a supported platform and the project option goes away I think in Access 203. While I'm having no issues with this configuration I'm thinking I should switch to linked tables to come...

    Cannot enter value into blank field on 'one' side of outer join

    1. In the database you attached you did not have a primary key defined for either table. This prevented the query from being updateable. - Probably my fault - the db I sent you was missing these as I had just imported these tables from another db and did not check the table definition. Once...

    Cannot enter value into blank field on 'one' side of outer join

    If I understand your issue correctly you are attempting to assign a property to an entity. ie Assign the State Property to a City. This is very simple. I think you may have over complicated your design by attempting to have your forms based on a query that joins the tables. You should...

    Change table field property

    I agree with Cronk. Constantly changing properties of table definitions to support an on-going requirement of a business process screams for a need to change to the process. Usually data should pass all validation requirements before being added to permanent storage. Consider adding these...

Just pass to it the TableName, FieldName and New Setting (True or False) You can call this at the beginning of your Append Process with setting False then again at the end...

    Rename a Table Field Name Problem

    I just tried to recreate the issue in Access 2007 and could not. I wonder if different versions are treating case differently.

    Rename a Table Field Name Problem

    No shouldn't have any problem. As you have stated you have no forms, vba macros or other objects currently referencing the field so you didn't break anything by changing the name of the field. Any new objects you create will reference the new field name. My comment regarding changing field...

    Rename a Table Field Name Problem

    Sounds like a simple case of case insensitivity. Since your attempted change to the name was only from upper to lower case access was not recognizing any change. So there was no real change to save. But when you changed the name by adding an extra character then removing the extra character...

    Rename a Table Field Name Problem

    Changing names of fields is always risky business - you will need to make sure any object (form, query, macro, report, vba code ...) that references that field is updated to the new name. Are you getting error messages? Are the fields used in any relationships? Im pretty sure you can't change...

    Windows XP vs. 7

    Sorry SkyCraw I'm not sure. This is an area that I only have enough knowledge to get in trouble with so.. I am concerned I might be leading you down the wrong path. Having given fair warning It may be in the Office Button/Server/Connection/Data Link Properties or if you are using ADO which...

    table design

    Design 1 is the way to go. Don't worry about record count with proper indexes you'll be fine. Proper normalization of data structure will make for a simpler more efficient system.

    Update hourly rates with exceptions that use a different list of rates.

    I would build the Exception table to have a separate record for each client/employee combination. Additionally I would add an {Exception} flag to the client table to indicate which rate they use -standard/non-standard or both (some employees standard, some non) rate tblExceptions ExceptionID...

    Displaying x combo boxes & positioning them

    Attached is a version of the db that dynamically links the combo boxes to the underlying fields in tblPinouts There probably is a more elegant approach using arrays of controls but I don't have the experience to do it. The approach taken assumes a maximum of 40 pinouts. The limitation of this...

    Displaying x combo boxes & positioning them

    I couldn't help myself and wanted to take a crack at this form design take a look at the attached db - it is in A2007 format The screen is called chips. The vb is a little crude - rather like using a blunt hammer but it seems to do what you want. You would still have to dynamically assign...
