    RTE 2101, The setting you entered isn't valid for this property

    That may work. The only other thing I can think of is the name of the sub doesn't match. In all of my trials of doing the same sort of thing, I never got the error you are seeing. I don't have access to some archived stuff where I had done exactly the same setup. Like I mentioned, I modified...

    Question Custom Menubar in Access 2010?

    I am not sure about 2010. I know you can import custom bars in 2007 and utilize those without any issues - I use these as right-click pop-up menus. -dK

    RTE 2101, The setting you entered isn't valid for this property

    I believe it is a reference issue ... You are trying to do something from Sub MH2 and apply it to Sub MH3, however, you are not supplying the path from MH2 to MH3 (the Parent). I've done the same as you before but different implementation (from a module function) so I am swagging here, but...

    Relationships

    I disagree. I think the OP is suggesting that the user opens the job form and assigns customer to the job. As PNGBill stated, what many are used to is to go to the customer's form and add a new job from this form (while seeing all previous jobs in a subform). I have applied the technique...

    Writing an effective MS Access developer resume

    Think about it like this ... different human languages all say the same thing except with minor nuances, so I'd probably take a standard DBA/Coder template because everything you do in Access is being done in other languages. So is someone who holds themselves out as an .ASP programmer better...

    Query Based on Two Tables ?

    I think I stole it off of RuralGuy a long time ago and put it in my list of favorites. Funny though, sometimes when I am struggling with dates and times I have found myself googling up brian's name since his understanding is much envied. -dK

    Restricting Ctrl P

    In the form properties for the KeyDown event, you can try ... If (Shift and acCtrlMask) > 0 And KeyCode = 80 Then KeyCode = 0 Then set the Key Preview property of the form to 'Yes'. -dK

    How to validate against another table?

    Are you using the arguments supplied by vbaINet? That is, if you have DCount on a code line and nothing else, you will get that error. You have to provide an argument for it .... If DCount(allofyourstuff) <> 0 Then ... the record exists else ... it doesn't exist end if -dK

    Query Criteria Help

    Hehe .. I like her sister, too. :cool: I wasn't sure if you (or someone) wanted the full zip (in the future) and was going to actually fix them or not. If you want to clean it up permanently, use the same syntax in the "Update" row on an update query. -dK

    How to validate against another table?

    Ah .... here is something when dealing with apostrophes and quotes and such with strings. It also has another link (on DLookup) on it and both pages may provide some insight now and when moving forward with your project...

    How to validate against another table?

    I would suggest just trying one. Let that one work error free. Then add another and debug it, and then add another condition, etc. etc. I would point you to this article. Scroll down to the 'multiple criteria' section. HTH, -dK

    Form maximized in 2007 looks weird

    Aye ... I think that bit is called 'Layout'. I would guess that yours is set on 'Tabular'. The form wizard will normally used 'Stacked'. The layout can be found under the same pop-up menu when you right-click the control. I assume that these all have their purposes. :confused: The only one...

    Query Criteria Help

    I wouldn't jack with the original fields but use a variant to retrieve what you want. For instance, in the QBE go to the last column and put in something like .... ShortZip: Left([ZipCodeFieldName], 5) Change the ZipCodeFieldName to whatever the field name you have that holds the zip...

    Syntax Error

    You betcha. I probably would have referred that initially but thought you were only dealing with two criteria. Once you mentioned the complexity bit, that one sprung to mind. Apologies, but glad you got it working straightaway! -dK

    Index and Hyperlinks

    Here is an idea for (1). Supposing multiple assignments for states and such I further suppose each user is unique by some field (name, ID, etc). You could use a subreport based on your user name (or ID or whatever method you use) and the state's assigned to you (or that ID). Then set the...

    Form maximized in 2007 looks weird

    My guess would be because of the anchoring you have on those controls. If you right click in design view, you will see the anchoring on the pop up menu. If you have selected some point on the form, the control will automatically stretch per the selection when you maximize the form. You can...
