    Question Help needed with Outlook/Access Issue

    I didn't realize you hadn't done any programming before. This might not be the greatest first task, as it is a little complex. If you decide to forge ahead, you will need to put your code (procedures) in a module. You can run them by calling the procedures from an event, like an on click...

    Running a report based on SQL source at runtime...help!

    Typically what you would do is use the relevant data from the form in a saved query, and then set the recordsource of the report to the query. Your query could be something like SELECT * FROM WhateverTable WHERE SomeField=" & Forms!YourFormName!YourFormField etc. Is that what you are asking?

    Frontend / Backend Question

    I think that the official limit is something like 200, but I have never heard of a system that was functional with that many connections. I don't think there is any set answer, it really depends on the system - if everyone is working on one table, that is really going to lower the number of...

    AutoNumber In A Multi-User Environment

    Yes, I see your point. This is sort of a tricky scenario then. Why can't they use a bound form? Or, what if you create the new record when the form opens, so that it takes the autonumber at that point, and then on save do an update event to store whatever they entered?

    Code Newbie Problem!

    Maybe I don't understand your objective, but this seems like an overcomplicated way of doing this. Are you aware of can shrink and nz? For instance, if you want to hide a field that happens to be empty, just make sure that field is set to can shrink = yes in the properties. If you want to a...

    Resumes

    I think it is pretty common to put work samples on a web page (get a free blog if you don't have a website), and then list the site address under Other at the end of your resume. Or, wait until they ask you for work samples and then give them the address. I think portfolios/stuff on paper is...

    I haven't seen this particular problem, have you checked to see if there are any new hotfixes out? Also, you could make a test mde with a very simple report and see if that will open on that machine. If it doesn't, then you know something is wrong with the environment. If it does, there is...

    Question Help needed with Outlook/Access Issue

    Well, one thing at a time. Do you have the loop set up so that you have each file one at a time? Once you have the file, then you have to figure out the appropriate way to open them. Are they txt files or something else?
