    Is there a way to Identify different front ends (same accde name) using VBA, local name or even folder share name?

    Very many thanks to you all I am sure one of those will give me exactly what I want. My apologies to RanMan256 as actually, currentdb.Name can give some username infrom from the drive name, not sure 100% of what I wanted but sure would have worked. The Environ("Username") looks perhaps slightly...

    Is there a way to Identify different front ends (same accde name) using VBA, local name or even folder share name?

    Thanks, but as I say they are all the same name. Unless I give all the front ends a different name currentdb.name would all be e.g. "BookingSystem.accde" ref. the DBGuy reply Had a quick google "Try doing a search on "Dev/Test/Live" demo or code." Is this a whole new DB system? My DB I huge...

    Is there a way to Identify different front ends (same accde name) using VBA, local name or even folder share name?

    Tricky to explain, I have 4 or 5 front ends connected to a BE on the same LAN. They have the same name. I might be over complicating this but ideally would like to be able to identify each front end. FrontEnds are on C:\Documents etc. etc. not the same location Pc to PC e.g. pressing a button on...

    It may be different or a better way now but I know long time ago when I originally worked on the web control, I spent a very long time trying different methods & opening & using the readystate made it work well otherwise I think was often not populated. Don't really want to revisit the whole...

    Forms conditional formatting & DataBars, v. slow. Is there an alternative or way to speed up? The numbers are shown instantly

    Hi, Have quite a complex form, lots of fields (need them all on one screen) Would really like to use databars to show rough amounts on 2 fields, at a glance However they are slow to display & the whole form is "calculating" for 7 to 15 seconds, & again if you scroll down, perhaps 30 records in...

    VBA to construct a string, then add RTF formatting so can be Pasted into a memo field

    Hi, thanks all for very fast responses. I did try <br> , a bad example <strong> for access rtf. Nothing seems to works in an string variable, using a form field will. I am probably over complicating, I was trying to avoid using a me.field, constructing there, setting focus & using...

    VBA to construct a string, then add RTF formatting so can be Pasted into a memo field
