    VB versus VBA

    Yes and more. Although, many use them together. VB (.Net) as the front end and Access as the data store or back end. It is a great way to make stand alone "Access" applications.

    VB versus VBA

    I started using ASP.Net early on when the framework was still in beta and fell in love with it instantly. There is a lot more to know then there was with classic ASP but once you get the hang of things the effort it takes to learn new things pays off instantly. I just received the VB.Net IDE...

    VB versus VBA

    Aziz, if you are just getting started with VB and want a long future with it. I would recommend that you start with VB.Net now. It is more OOP then was VB 6 and is the direction that MS is heading with all its development tools including those for the new Office (at least that is the rumor I heard).

    web base database

    If you are serious about putting a database on the web I would skip DAP and start learning ASP.Net. From what I understand DAP is ok for basic viewing and editing but not much more. With ASP.Net you can achieve most everything you can do in an Access form. Having said that, the learning curve...

    Showing Pictures in a DAP

    I have never used DAP so I don't know ig you are able to set the path yourself. If so, then modify the path to use the URL and just to be sure you may want to use a complete URL like this: http://yoursite.com/images/image1.gif Just make sure the files are located in a folder that the...

    Why oh Why?

    By the way the option to turn off error reporting is under the System applet in the control panel. Select the advanced tab and choose error reporting. Once that is opend up you can disable the "feature" there. I give this reply one thumb up. :D

    If you are in an environment that has a server or at the very leas a workstation with an available share you can do so. The syntax would look something like this: \\ServerName\ShareName\FolderName

    Emailing record in plain text

    Ok lets start with this. Say you have four fields in your table like this. name - (text) email - (text) send - (yes/no) problem - (text) For the sake of this thread we will assume your table is called TableName and that you want to use a command button to trigger the app. After you have it...

    Email

    No problem. I am glad it is going to work out for you. FYI I am not sure whether you noticed or not but I did not use the BrowseFolder module at all in my solution. I used the GetFile one noted on the post above.

    Email

    This should do the trick. Look for a form that says "BucksForm" open that and press the button. You should get an open dialog box. Just pick your file and it should be inserted right into Outlook as an attachment. The Module used to spark the Open Dialog is from here: Call the standard Windows...

    Handling Returned Emails

    Why is the mail returned? Is it just a case of users entering bad emial addresses? If so you may want to consider having them enter the email twice or using an email confirmation routine that won't add them to the Send To list until the email address has been confirmed as a good one.
