    No horizontal scroll in datasheet subform possible

    This is an old thread but I just had the same problem. All the settings were as expected to make this work. The trick was to shorten the height of the main form where the subform was embedded (or use the vertical scroll bar on the main form to scroll down even though the entire subform was...

    Security Challenge #2 (Hidden Message)

    Re: Security Challenge #2 Thank you Ridders! These exercises taught me about things I never thought to look for. I am going to give one spoiler: Don't over think it; pay attention to what is in front of you.

    Screen Design

    Have you tried a lower resolution setting on your display? Since we're stuck with a single pixel border, it may help to use bigger pixels. I think you're asking for a way to adjust the double arrow sensitivity to click and drag a form window; if that is the case I believe you're at the mercy...

    Counting courses and calculating GPA

    I'm beginning to wonder if I've done too much already. Look at the design view and make the changes you need for selection criteria. Pay attention to the bottom section that builds your WHERE clause and you will have an answer to your question about >=10 on the count column.

    Don'd Understimate the Capability of the Lowly Mouse Pad to Mess with You

    Pretty much every PSU I've seen on a desktop has the voltage switch. It's easier to put the switch in the PSU than it is to worry about which market it will be used in.

    Counting courses and calculating GPA

    I've attached a copy of your database example with the queries built to do what you describe (or at least how I interpret your description). Objective 1: List count of classes for students who have completed 10 courses without failing the course excluding classes in progress...

    Counting courses and calculating GPA

    Use Zero or -1 and filter those out of the selection criteria. I think the -1 value would be good only if it is used as an indicator to exclude the record(s) while allowing a 0 to be used in an average calculation. It would really help to have copies of your tables and some fictitious sample...

    Counting courses and calculating GPA

    I created a table to emulate what you describe then queried it the best I can based on your criteria. I eliminated the specific student data as you can do this with a simple join in design mode. The Courses table looks like this: (Quick and dirty) StudentID Integer, indexed CourseName...

    Saving VBA Module through code

    To all that helped: Thank you! Part of what I have been tasked with includes upgrading from V2000 to O365 and to use runtimes instead of native Access on the clients. I didn't think managing this with the current method would work in an ACCDE but was willing to be taught a new trick. I will...

    I think your issue is with the formatting as a percent. Have you tried using decimals? Your basic evaluation appears to be: If nfld = 0 then 'do this ElseIf nfld > nTier6 'do this instead ElseIf nfld < nTier6 'figure out what tier it belongs to End If Instead of looking for...
