    Problem with sql syntax with JOIN and WHERE in vba

    Saying 'it didn't work' is of no help for anyone trying to troubleshoot. As already stated, if the Bestelbon field is text then you need single quotes as delimiters. You don't need the Bestelbon field in the SELECT clause sql = "SELECT Productnaam FROM Planning INNER JOIN Tanks" & _ " ON...

    Help with moving Access database

    Back in 2016 or so, I decided to ‘future proof’ my application installations by adding 17.0 to the registry trusted location scripts that I circulated with my commercial and some free apps. I know some of my clients have 17.0 listed in the registry as a result. It does no harm but neither does...

    That should be Database field in MSysObjects (not property). Similarly for the Connect field (not Connection property).

    Solved Functionality differences between .accdb and .accde

    Glad you have a solution. In answer to your questions in post #5, there is no inherent difference in centering (or otherwise positioning ) reports compared to forms. DoCmd.MoveSize is subject to the same integer twips limit of 32767 as for form and report widths. For MoveSize you need to set...

    Glad it worked out for you. I knew it would once I saw those screenshots, which is why I pushed you to update.

    Restarting is unlikely to help accelerate matters (assuming it recovers from the dead). Don’t be afraid of forcing the update in the way I described. It’s easy.

    You’ll get that version eventually via an automatic update but it’s easy enough to do From backstage view, click Account | Update Options | Update Now. If the update is available to you the update process will start automatically

    As the AFo article states in the first line, various 32-bit wizard related issues were triggered with version 2507 build 19029.20136 released on 30 July. Just run a version update in the usual way to get the latest current channel version.

    Bingo! The information in post #24 was very helpful. Although you haven't said so, I think you may be running 32-bit Access 2016 version 2507. If so, you may be affected by a bug that affected various wizards See https://www.accessforever.org/post/wizard-activexs-are-broken-in-32-bit and...

    Solved Functionality differences between .accdb and .accde

    OTOH, if your end users do not need to do things like add/alter query design then using the .accdr suffix does have advantages. For example, it automatically locks down the file, hiding both nav pane & ribbon from users without you needing to apply all security yourself using code. However...

    Hidden & little known features in VBA and the VBE

    If you look back at post #1, the VBE also displays an old and apparently redundant VB6 Components dialog box when Ctrl+T is pressed. Likewise, just because the items still exist for the Easter egg, it doesn’t mean that they can be used.

    Long subform behaviour

    I had already tried both of those before posting Taking point 2: it is illogical to make your form / subform very tall, then reduce it to show the vertical scrollbar Just make the form shorter in the first place.

    Long subform behaviour

    I tested in a 22 inch monitor earlier. However, it shouldn't make any difference what size monitor you have with popup forms

    Finding which queries use specific control from the main form

    It was a Word table. I've saved it as a separate Word doc and also exported it to Excel For some reason neither .docx or .xlsx are allowed filetypes so I've included both in the attached zip file

    Hidden & little known features in VBA and the VBE

    This is the YouTube link mentioned in post 29: The instructions in the video description tell you to rename the About Visual Basic Help menu item. In the VBE, there is an About Visual Basic for Applications menu item but renaming it didn't show the old Easter egg The IDE has been updated a...

    Finding which queries use specific control from the main form

    @Pat Hartman Hmmm...at the moment I've can only find that table in a Word doc. For now, attached is a PDF of the web article which includes that table I'll extract the data and (hopefully) get it into Access in the next few days so it can be directly queried.

    Ah. Sorry I misunderstood Try running this query & post a screenshot of the results SELECT MSysObjects.Name, MSysObjects.Type, MSysObjects.Flags FROM MSysObjects WHERE (((MSysObjects.Type) IN (4, 6)));

    Linked tables don't appear to be

    Ignore the Export section. Linked tables are created using the wizard from External Data | From Data Source | From Database then choose the link option The 1 suffix is automatically created on a newly linked table when the same table has already been linked. You won't see the original linked...
