    Automatically adding tables into MSAccess

    It can be acheived by having a split FE/BE database. If you need to add/amend forms, queries, reports etc. then you can send a replacement frontend. If you need to create or change tables, indexes, relationships etc then you can use a third database to apply changes to the BE by use of...

    Installation software??

    Hi Rachael I know we have corresponded before on the joys of PDW. I can’t offer any advice on alternate products but I did a while ago experience problems with installing on 2000. It came about after I had upgraded the operating system to XP Pro and the PDW was picking up later versions of some...

    Package and Deploy Two Databases at Same Time

    If I understand correctly you want a Program Group on your Start Menu with two sub Menu Items. If so when in the PDW for the Start Menu Item create two new items. In the properties of the first enter in the target something like /runtime "$(AppPath)\myFirstDb.mde" in Start in $(AppPath) for...

    Create Toolbar?

    Are you looking to create a pop-up menu? If so then create a customised Access toolbar and when happy it works change it to a pop-up via the customise toolbars properties. Set the forms Shortcut Menus to Yes and Shortcut Menu Bar to the name of the pop-up menu. When you right mouse click the...

    Partially Split FE/BE

    I use a similar approach but with two BE mdbs and a FE mde. The prime BE is shared across the network and the second (with temp/work tables) on each of the local PCs, compacting on close. It's worked fine for a number years. Keith

    File Path

    X = CurrentDb.Name will provide the full db path. You can then manipulate the string, e.g. search for last "\" (instrrev if you have access 2000 or xp) to give the current folder. Hope this helps

    Save reports in pdf format?

    Try PDF995 (Google search). You output PDF as a psuedo Printer which perhaps presents another problem unless you are using Access 2002 because earlier versions do not have a Printer Object. Hope this helps.

    API Guru?

    I would like to be able to identify the top and left coordinates of a given control on any open form relative to the Windows screen.. I’m sure this must be possible but its beyond my skills.

    OrderBy

    I think you may have to enclose in brackets, e.g. me.orderBy = "[StartDate]" me.orderByOn = True

    Formulas not working in Access 2k

    I have found that on occasion Access throws a wobbly and gives the sort of problem you've experienced. I suspect that it is not directly the change to DAO 3.0 that's given the cure but rather that the change is causing the references to resfresh. Try putting 3.6 back in, it will probably work.

    Formulas not working in Access 2k

    Check that your references are okay. I suspect one or more is missing.

    Create a Table in VB

    Hi Marion After you have defined the field and before you have appended it use the attributes property, e.g. td.Fields![SMID].Attributes = dbAutoIncrField You will also need to make the field dbLong rather than integer. hyperlink is similar but the field needs to be described as dbmemo.

    How do you Edit a toolbar button image through code?

    Hi Arage I think what you are looking for is FaceId. It's a long time since I did the following code which is a direct extract from from my app. I can remember it gave me a headache at the time. Hope it helps. Set X = CommandBars.Add(menuname, msoBarPopup)...

    compile errors on dbs DIM statement....any ideas

    I suspect you are right in guessing it's a reference problem. I recall reading that the DAO refence needs to be at the top of the loading list. You could also try adding another reference (any reference), compile, remove the added reference and compile again. You could also Dim your database and...
