Proof that the British and the Americans can do some great things together. http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/casinoroyale/site/

I just started this little thread; to say that I hope you all are having a great day. So to our European buddies; good afternoon, to our American ones; good morning, and to our Australian and far Eastern, good tomorrow. Hopefully every one will post something nice on this thread and we can...

At the risk of sounding like a stricken dad, and therefore a great bore. I’m going to brag on my little girl for a while. This morning when I picked her up from her mother’s house to take her to school, she gave me some good news. She got a 1410 on her SAT scores. The minimum she needs to be...

Has anyone seen this? The autofils in a combo box on one of my databases just stops at 2 letters, after that they start to insert instead of replacing. I created a new one of the form and it does the same thing. Weird.

Well as the old saying goes a fool is soon relieved of the bourdon of cash. I have managed to create a debacle sure to leave me with greyer and less hair. Ok, I built a rather large database. Unfortunately we didn’t know a tenth of what we know now, about what should be in it. Not a big deal...

This is a little preliminary, but my business is starting to take off. I am not going to be able to write code, and promote my business at the same time. I need help and hopefully lots of it. Any of you guys out there that are interested in working with me on this please send me a PM.

Hello All, Please post your Access Questions in the appropriate Section. This Section is reserved to discuss Database Theory.

Well I found this little piece of freeware (actually it was referred to me from a guy on a Swish Forum). It helps you create animated tours of your software http://www.debugmode.com/wink/ It does a great job of capturing screens and mouse moves. It has nice built in annotations capabilities...

Hello everyone, Does anyone know how to translate the background colors used in Access to RGB? Thank you.

I searched for Tree controls and I found a few links from some of you guys. I’m putting this in the Theory Section because I really don’t want you to ask you guys take the time to tell me how, just why, and what for. So basically what can you use a tree control for?

Perplexed as usual. I have a query that is made from 2 tables in a one to many relationship The many side is a sum query based on the foreign key from the main table An example of this would be TblOrders and TblOrderDetails, where the group for the sum of total cost would be the OrderID...

Well after nine months of intensive development I have completed my first application for distribution. Now the hard part. It needs to be nearly impossible for people to make unauthorized copies. I'm thinking I would like to do some kind of internet authorization but I don’t have a clue...

Am I wrong or is this section supposed to be where we discuss Database Design Theory? It seams to have turned into a catch all drawer for questions that don’t belong to a specific group. Sorry, I'm not trying to sound critical. Please delete this thread if it not applicable.

I did a search a few weeks ago on calendar controls and found nothing I know there used to be many before the Great Crash. Does anyone still have links to any thread on Calendars?

I installed the Beta version of the new IE7 and couldn’t open my Access Databases located on our network. So I did a system restore, thought you guys might want to know. I’m sure someone here knows how to reduce the security that Microsoft thinks we need.

Is there a way to force group header text to appear on subsequent pages when the group dos not break on a page. I realize you can force the group to stay together, but that makes the report grow unnecessarily large.

I have a simple question that I know will have a very complex answer You have two sets of tables with identical structures. The first set contains data that is a model for the second set. The users run queries that append data to the second set of tables Here is an example of the structure...

Has anyone heard if they have improved the rather dismal graphic design portion of form and report editing in the new Access? I was hoping for an interface more in keeping with standard graphic design programs.

I set up a little ftp site for my customers to upload .mdb files for me to work on. Access won’t open them for fear of a bug. Even if they are zipped same problem. Any clue? Thanks All
