    Opening another form based off another forms combo box value

    Your main problem is the query 'AA Table Query' that has a join to 'Item list Query' which is limiting your Recordset. Remove this table as I cant see that it's needed. Then in design view of your Main Form for your 'Find..' button change the Macro to an [Event Procedure] on the OnClick and...

    Database Number of Objects Limit Problem

    Ok, my advice would've been to try it in 2010 because I've seen some sketchy things using earlier versions but seeing you are already using 2010 I don't have any further advice. Sorry. Though I would add that that is one large database and if it were me I'd probably try and reduce the number of...

    Distribution of a database: Splitting and Runtime

    The Runtime version will run the database just as the full version does only there will be limited functionality. With regards to splitting the database this is highly recommended.

    Access on Citrix reality check and reassurance

    Hi CJ, I have worked with Citrix a little and have found that Access works pretty much the same as if it were on a remote server with a shared front end i.e. each user has their own 'instance' of the front end so changing things like the record source would be specific to that user. As far as...
