    Cascading Combo

    You have a macro in Access called 'Orders' with submacro 'SetFormState' which goes through the form and locks every item one by one depending on the values of the check boxes IsComplete, IsShipped, ect. You need to create another macro that does the opposite and unlocks everything. The...

    Cascading Combo

    When you submit the invoice, I'm guessing you have a button or a check box that tells the database its submitted and edits are no longer allowed. Me.AllowAdditions = False Me.AllowDeletions = False Me.AllowEdits = False You can create a command button that will unlock your form...

    Send Email as Task or High Importance

    Using the DoCmd.SendObject is it possible to send an email as a task or of high importance so it's not easily forgotten or lost in one's inbox??? If SendObject can't do it, is there a command that can? thanks

    Image upload for user

    I believe if you attach the image as an attachment instead of using the image viewer, it will open the default program to view the attached.

    Cascading Combo

    sorry, i just noticed that now. You are correct, that's because the form is continous view, so when the combo box updates they all update. I'll have to play with it later, but I think an Or statement will work. The row source will either be the query or from the same source with no query.

    Cascading Combo

    your database is a bit of a mess, I highly recommend you don't put combo boxes into tables and forms, but anyways I think i fixed it. 1.) Fixed Table OrderDetails, field SupplierID. Filled in missing values and replaced numbers with names via combo box. 2.) Changed the source of...

    Cascading Combo

    I noticed that, it's becuase you have a combo box built into the table/query. I have not seen this before, so I don't know how or why you did it like that. You should make your Supplier Query source to the location where the table/query is getting their combo box from. Or don't have a...
