    Solved Advice on resources to learn VBA and /or SQL

    Thank you. I noticed that the link refers to VBA and Excel. Am I correct in believing that VBA for Access and VBA for Excel are very similar?

    Solved Advice on resources to learn VBA and /or SQL

    maybe you misunderstand my level of knowledge. I see posts where some say they want to do X. I think 'Great, I also want to do that." I go to the thread and when they either post the code they started with, or someone posts a solution, I have no clue what I am looking at. It might as well be in...

    You input on VBA vs SQL is noted. Thanks. Even being self taught, you had to start someplace. How did you go about learning VBA? Where did you start? Did you know other programing first?

    Solved Advice on resources to learn VBA and /or SQL

    And where or how do you recommend I learn each thing as i need to do it? Asking this site every time I want to do something is not only time consuming for me and those that answer, it also doesn't really teach what is being done or why. Usually questions are answered with code to do whatever...

    Except I found another problem. I wrote code and it tried to work but failed because I am using a parameter Query and apparently DCount can not be used for a parameter query. So I am starting to understand what need to do. I just am having a hard time figuring it out with only Access help...

    Trying to detect when a query has no records using a Macro

    OK. Then why does the Macro allow me to insert the DCount command? Is that just Access being Access? It seems strange to me that they would allow a command to be listed that can not run. I would need to write a Module (?) with the code you listed, (with pertinent information filled in) and...

    Trying to detect when a query has no records using a Macro

    Lets see if I am reading this syntax correctly. Count all records found in the results of the named query, regardless of which field contains data. (The "*" wildcard.) If that count is greater than 0 then open the form. If that count is not greater than 0, then follow whatever the "Else"...

    Solved Want to learn how to add Dates from my Query to a report

    Thank you. The easy way almost worked. When typed as you wrote it I got a circular reference error. I changed it to Begin Date:[Start Date] and Last Date: [End Date] and it worked just fine. This will allow me to put dates on the reports for now. I like your suggestion of the form for date...

    Solved Problem Creating ACCDE

    THANKS, I did not think I had any code to compile as I had not written anything. When I ran Debug, it found some old embedded code from an on open event where I was trying to handle the no records returned situation. There was no outward indication that the code was still there. Once I deleted...
