    Form Wizard to add CHECK box

    Hi All My DB has MANY bit fields. Whenever I use the form wizard to create a form, it creates a text box for each field. Is there a preferences setting (or script) that I can use to change all the text boxes (for bit fields) to CHECK boxes. Thanks

    Problem displaying all text when copied from a PDF

    The problem lies with the manner in which the PDF was created. - You might want to paste the text into notepad / word to "clean it", before putting it into access. In word, use the search and replace tool to remove paragraph (or carriage returns) etc

    Multiple instance of sub-report (chart)

    Thanks Arnelgp I guess that its my own fault for not mentioning that I have tried putting the sub-report in ALL sections. No change in any. I am wondering if I will be forced to have a sub-report for TEST and then a SUB-SUB-Report for criteria. I'd like to avoid this if possible.

    How to get records where field is blank and also record no

    I think you may be able to solve your problem in excel, so I will answer accordingly. In Excel, you probably want to create a record number before you do anything to your data. so that you can sort the data back to its original order. Add a column called 'Rec_no'. and then use the autofill to...

    Client FE will not open for my users

    OK, so here's how it was set up The back end had tables of its own, but it also referenced tables on a SQL server (connected via 32bit ODBC) The users front end is using 64bit connection to the server. At least that's what I think is happening. I have rolled the access tables into the SQL db and...

    Tab colour change when active

    Hi Janith If you are using an access generated navigation from, this should be working for you already? However, if you don't like the default colours, check the properties of the tab. You can set the 'Pressed fore color' (Which is the font colour) and 'Pressed color' (which is the background...

    Client FE will not open for my users

    Yup! I Suspect That It Has Something To Do With Win/office 32/64bit Combinations And Their Odbc Connection. Failing That, Its A Permissions Issue On Ms Access.

    Client FE will not open for my users

    Hi All I have created a Split DB that works just dandy on my machine. But when my users try to open the front end, they (very) briefly see the 'enable content' button before being forced to the 'File/New' menu. I have checked that they have set my shared network drive as a trusted location...

    No data in subform if recordcount is 1

    Hi Paul I think the problem may have something to do with the fact that its parent form is in the Navigation form. So, in effect, what I think is a subform, is in reality a subform of a subform. (ie Navigation Form / Category Form / Activity Form) The two combo's live on the Category form and...

    Navigation Forms

    Unfortunately the attached front-end does not work because there is no back-end (data) attached. And the picture doesn't really help us. I THINK that maybe you need to link a form to the tab?
