Hello once more.... when I unzipped the referred file and tried running it in Access 97, I got the following message: "Microsoft Access can't open the form 'FrmCompanies. It contains data that Microsoft Access doesn't recognize. Recreate the form." Can you hopefully shed light on why I might...

Cool! And, thanks! I wonde rwhat my "dear, darling" users will think of next????? :D

Oh, I completely agree with having a re-think, but you know how users can sometimes be. Thanks for your reply and thanks for pointing me to that secondary link! Sometimes a search on a forum can be frustrating, but you helped save me several hours. I'm going to take a look at the sampple...

I've got a form with two combo boxes. I know how to limit the second box to show items based on what was picked in the first combo box. Here's my question: Can the two combo picks be reversed while still leaving the pick abilities originally intended? Example: I pick an item from combo 1...

And, thanks for your response. I was actually looking for information such as resides at the site that ghudson was so kind to provide. I had searched and looked through the forum for several hours using terms like "security", "workgroup security", "workgroups", "levels of authority" and the...

Thank you for your reply.... I had discovered the like you suggested quite a while ago, but then managed to lose it. I appreciate the info and am glad to get that link back! :D :)

Does anyone know if there is a site or a thread that provides simpler instructions for setting up and using security on an Access application? I've read Microsoft's items, but can't really decipher them! I think my problem is conceptual on my part. I've set up a test mdw, and set up user /...

I clobbered my copy of the Access 97 Solutions Database. :o I looked on Microsoft's site, and did not see a link to it for downloading. Can anyone tell me where I might obtain a copy of the Solutions Database for downloading? Thanks!

On one of my forms, I have two listboxes. I can pick one or several departments from the left listbox, and using code and queries, can “move” the selected items to the right listbox. There is also a total cost text box on my form for an item being ordered. What I want on this form is to...

And for what it's worth....that's what we're looking for at my client's site. Something that provides scheduling ability for multiple people on possibly multiple tasks at multiple sites. I too don't agree with anything discussed but don't think my clients would want the Outlook / Calendar...

Not really sure..... I would think that is what's done, but only having Acc 97.... there also might be a few compatability issues (i.e., ocx's, etc). Most likely would have to tackle those as they show up. Meanwhile, I guess what could be done is if / when you make something in 2000, also...

And therein lies my headache! My outfit is using Acc 97, with no plans of moving upward! I'm still willing to participate and contribute. And I betcha there's a bunch of Acc 97 out there who would love something like this! I'm going to PM you w/ my info ASAP.

That sounds great! Not to mention very nice of you..... Should I PM you with my e-mail address? :cool:

Some suggestions for transposing data Hammy, If you go to Microsoft's web site, there are three articles in their Knowledge Base that might give you some ideas and help. The three articles are listed under the caption, "How To Transpose Data in a Table or Query". The article numbers are...

For what it's worth I found a code sample on this forum that produces a Gantt-chart type report and have tied it to my "activity" table. Enclose you'll see a screen shot of it. It might be something we could use. Incidentally, as I said, I did find the code on this forum, but for the life of...

Sound interesting! That sounds like a great idea, especially where there seems to be a strong interest for such a concept! How might we go about it? Will we offer our ideas and code? And forms? I'm willing! Plus, keep in mind there is still a large Access 97 community that would need to be...

No.... we don't have anythng newer here than good old Access 97. I think I might try taking home a copy of the application, since I have Access 2000 at home, as well as Access 97. Thank you for the suggestion! And thanks for the offer to keep on trying! :)

Hello, Pat, and thanks for replying! Yup, Access 97 is old.... however, the client I work for likes it and has no plans for later and greater versions. Concerning the flexgrid .ocx, I believe I registered it correctly (and didn't copy it from any other database). I first did a search to...

Question about msflexgrid I, too am trying to create a diary or appointment process in Access. I've seen several references to "msflexgrid" and have found the correct ocx for it, but whenever I try to put msflexgrid into a form, I get a message about the OLE server for the ocx not being...

Don't know if this will help....... Pat Hartman created a calendar style report, which is "fueld by several crosstab queries. If you do a search on this forum, using "calendar report" as your search criteria, it might be something you can use. I've played around with it a bit, and it's pretty...
