    Advice?

    Question: is there always an "x" and a "y" for each site in table 1 ? Sounds like no. So you need: 1) sites with x and y 2) sites with x only 3) sites with y only and then put it all together. Right ? Start with this and we can move forward. RichM

    Matching a Public Variable to a Row in a Combo Box

    You have to create a *function* that returns a value. I don't know what you mean by "looping through the combo box" If you want to present a list or combo box with all stuff that meets some criteria, then make a *query* and use it as the RecordSouce of the combo box. Use the *function* as a...

    Reference to a public constant in query criteria filed

    Agree with Wayne's reply. Make a module with functions to "read" and "write" parameter variables. This is much better than using the name of an open Form. RichM

    Combining records in a single table

    You probably don't need to "combine 2 rows". If you want the total for a Memeber, create a query with Group By on Member. HTH, RichM

    Print Dialog Box

    Chris, Another option: in the Caption property of the report, enter "Ctrl + P to print". Then open the report in view mode. The user will see "Ctrl + P to print" in the top of the view window. The user can key "Ctrl +P" to open the print dialog window. RichM

    openrecordset troubles

    Martijn, I don't have time to examine your code. But I can assure you from my experience that DAO works well in Access 2000. DAO is the preferred interface if you are using native Access tables. RichM

    Session Variables type thingies

    In the 21st century, you use "Property" procedures instead of global variables. Create a module, call it "modProperties". In the module: Private PstrYourString As String Public Property Get GetYourString() As String GetYourString = PstrYourString End Property Public Property Let...

    sharing of data

    "sproc" ? That's a new one ! I like it. You create an ADO connection and specify the provider, user id, password, etc. Then you create an ADO command. In the command text you put something like this << "{call APSNOA_pkg.get_apsnoasdi (?,?,?, {resultset 1000000," _ & "Eff_Date...

    sharing of data

    Jon, This is how I report on Oracle mainframe data using Access as the front end. First, a mainframe DBA creates a stored procedure to select data. This procedure accepts parameters, usually a from date and to date. I write a function to call the stored procedure. The function uses ODBC and...

    sharing of data

    Jon, You have an Access front end MDB. You can link a mix of back end tables from native-mode Access and SQL Server. But.................. if you try to join Access tables to SQL Server tables in a query, the query will suffer a huge performance hit. If you do need to join tables in a query...

    Refer to all fields in a form

    I looked at some old code I use for locking and unlocking controls. In the loop that goes through the controls collection, I think you need something like Set ctl = frm.Controls(index) before you refer to a property of the variable "ctl". RichM

    Refer to all fields in a form

    Try ctl.[Enabled] = True instead. I think that will work. RichM

    one reference table vs. many

    It depends on how you use reference tables; do you want to return one value or many ? do you want to join other tables to a reference table for report grouping ? If you are using a reference table to look up one value, sort of like an old fashioned "INI" file, then a single table with...

    Format Function

    It sounds like you would have an easier time if you: create a table with fields set to the lengths you want, put values in the fields - align as you wish, export the table to a fixed-width text file. Forget the "Format" stuff. RichM

    Access to Oracle

    Sean, You wrote << When it says "performs migrations", I thought that it meant either exporting the tables or just updating an Oracle db from an Access one. Wouldn't that be the case if the Oracle db was already set up and working properly (with triggers set, security in place, etc... ?). >>...
