    Question Database file locked/in use

    I'm having the same type of problem with a db right now, only my backend is locked. There is no .ldb file, but if I try and rename the backend or open it. I get a warning about the file being in use. I'm going to see if IT can reboot and hopefully that fixes the problem.

    pass value of combo from first record, to next

    Thanks! This looks pretty good, but how does it work? I've tried copying the code over to my form, and adding the checkboxes to my form. But when I press the command button it doesn't do anything. So I must be missing something, or not seeing something.

    OK, it just happened to me now. I had the db open in the background and have been working on something else. I just went back to the db, and the record navigator was showing 1 of 24 records, which is all the records under my id. I shouldn't be showing any, since I haven't entered anything...

    Question Complex Query/Report help. Not sure how to do this.

    Thank You, I'm going to play around with this and see if I can make this work. I'm affraid tho, like neileg said that there might be just too many combinations of codes to make this work, and still be able to maintain. I looked and there are currently 25 codes they can select for each of those...

    Question Complex Query/Report help. Not sure how to do this.

    This is exactly how I'm feeling, that it's just going to be too complex to actually implement, and then try to maintain. There could be so many different combinations of codes/comments, that's when I came up with just allowing the user select the appropriate comments, since they know what...

    Form Opens Blank for one user

    It turns out she didn't have write permission to the network folder. So I just requested access, so once that's set hopefully this fixes it. Thanks everyone for your help.

    Form Opens Blank for one user

    Ya, that was the first thing I did. But she is still having the problem. Could it be a security thing? Maybe she doesn't have write access to the folder the backend is in?
