    Acc97 and Acc2k icons

    Email

    Groupwise I've been following (some) of this thread, and between this and some other threads i've managed to set up a means of sending an e-mail. This method seems to default to Outlook, which is loaded on my PC... but we use Groupwise as our e-mail. As it happens, all looks well, but my...

    adhoc query facility

    You could try a construct something like this:- SELECT [Customers].CustID FROM [Customers] WHERE ((([Customers].CustID) In ([ENTER CUST ID1],[ENTER CUST ID2],[ENTER CUST ID3]))); if you need more entries then just keep adding parameters. NB Parameters in the [brackets] must be different. I've...

    Run an application with NO Access installed

    Thanks for your posts. I have 'wrapped up' my Access2000 application in an .mde file and it runs fine on my Access2000 installed PC. I can't get hold of a non-Access PC at present, but I tried it on an Access97 only PC and it can't run because the format is not compatible. I supect that it...

    Run an application with NO Access installed

    I have written a small database in Access for a friend, and want to install it on their PC. They don't have Access installed, so is there a way I can 'wrap it up' so that they can use the database without having to buy and install the software, etc. Cheers.

    When is an error not an error?

    I hear what you're saying Fizzio re: not storing calculated fields. :) These two numbers are in fact entered as text. The actual number I wanted to enter is like 76000083123. This is too big to be entered as a number, (and too much work) so i set up a separate entry point on the form. I...

    When is an error not an error?

    I am adding data via a form. When I try to add a non-unique number I get an error message saying 'non-unique' etc. OK, so if a non-unique number is detected I want to put up a message box to the user and then delete the erroneous record. I have written some code to do this on detection of an...

    Import Problem

    Excel stores dates as a number, even though you can see a date format, hence when exporting it appears as a number in access. If the date was written in as a text string originally in Excel, then access will pull it in as a text string and you can change the field type to date at your leisure...

    Forcing the field type

    Is it possible to force the field type in the table resulting from a query? Reason: Access2000 keeps giving me tables with field type = Binary!...according to MicroSoft this field type does not exist!! These binary fields appear to be generated when the resulting data is 'mixed' eg. "Q3...
