    Access newbie needs help!!

    Is the form tied to a table/query, or is it a dummy form? If the form is tied to a table/query, then the data should automatic update the table when you are finished entering. As for closing the form. DoCmd.Close

    deleting records and a one to one relationship.

    Make the relationship 1 to many from the DVD collection --> Borrow and just have a single primary key on the borrow table. Then you should be able to delete from the borrow table w/o it coming off the collection table.

    Help with rounding up to nearest 20

    Fix strips off the decimal places. So using the Fix instead of Cint with 35 you would get: 35/20 = 1.75 Fix(1.75) = 1 1+1 = 2 2 * 20 = 40 Using Cint it rounds up so you would get 35/20=1.75 CINT(1.75) = 2 2+1 = 3 3 * 20 = 60

    Help with rounding up to nearest 20

    Qty = (Fix(qty/20)+1) * 20 (note - will not work with exactly 20' cuts.) If you wanted it to work with exactly 20' cuts then you would need to put an if statement in.. If Fix(Qty/20) <> (Qty/20) then Qty = (Fix(qty/20)+1) * 20 End If

    Access Printing Woes.

    Here's a weird problem I've had develop in the past couple months, before I upgraded to 2007, and now since I upgraded to 2007. I've had the same Access database since 1997, and just recently upgraded it to Access2007, but as I said the problem occurred before and after the changeover. I...

    I have no clue what you are seeing, nothing happens after I enter a comma.

    I don't even understand what you are asking. If you want what I think you want, make a table with a bunch of inane answers. Use the on change command and throw an Instr command in there to make sure you typed "Peter tell me I'm wasting my time:", :) if it is there, enable the second text box...

    How to export different report into SAME excel file

    What if you import the existing Excel sheet into a dummy table, append the records that would go in the report to the dummy table, export the dummy table back to Excel, write over the existing Excel file, and delete the dummy table?

    You know you need a life when in your spare time...

    ...you do this: There was question asked on the forum a couple weeks ago about setting an event reminder that always triggered at a certain time period. Then I got to thinking about it, because I never use the timer function in Access. So I started experimenting, at first it started out with...

    Access 2007

    I don't personally see the point of having rich text in tables and queries. Then again, with my database the only time I ever see tables and queries is when I'm modifying the design of them. Everything that is viewed has a form, subform, or report for that table or query.

    Two queries limits results

    Dumb question, but have you clicked the "sigma" button which allows you to show sums, averages, counts, etc?

    Access 2007

    I installed and am running Access 2007, and the only issue I had was I couldn't import a couple forms, and one report. Probably something with old coding that I never cleaned up. Some things I don't like with it. It seems to run slower, actually the entire office 07 suite seems to run...

    Query Formula

    Well, I took two tables and made a query with them, and was unable to input any data via the query with or without the formula. With a single table, I was able to input data even with the formula. The tables were not linked however. I know that in my database I sometimes ran into recordset...

    Exporting a report

    Can you make your own tweaks in the database copy you have? If so, instead of printing the report use DoCmd.SendObject If you can't when you are at the print preview screen for your report (depending on the version) File...Send... In 2007, click the office button and e-mail it.
