    Question How do I open access in runtime without security warnings?

    Hi guys, Long time since I posted, but I have actually done this for all my work PC's. I am the designer and programmer and all other machines are running runtime only. Just paste this into a text doc and save as a .reg file, then run it on each PC as needed to import into the registry...

    anyone know how to fix this or know what's causing this.

    Hi icemonster, It could be that when the form opens there are no controls or text boxes near the top for the focus to go to. Try setting up a hidden button with no command behind it as the main focus when the form opens.

    Check box when data entered

    You had this in your example. Me.Field2 = DateAdd("yyyy", 3, Date) Try this instead Me.Field2 = DateAdd("yyyy", 3, me.yourdatefield) The last part of a dateadd command is the date to compare it to. it does not have to be the actual date. hope that helps

This I found especially true when building SQL queries in VBA, the date format does not automatically...

    Only show between today and 14 days.

    I take it using the "m" in Dateadd does this then to save the tricky calculations with month lengths and the annoying February length every 4 years. Thanks for the answer. Clarifies it nicely.

    Only show between today and 14 days.

    While this post is still open, I thought I would ask. Why use date() + 14 instead of dateadd("d",14,date()) ?? Is it the same or does it evaluate differently depending on where you use it? Thanks.

    SQL statement problem

    2 questions. 1.)Are lngId and LamID on the same form where this is running from? 2.)Are they text or number fields? I would definitely go with spikepl, use the debug.print command and even put a breakpoint on the code when it runs so you can see the result. what i do then is copy the SQL...

    How to Delete "Properly"

    Hi Ollie, I had a similar problem recently with a db I have created for work to keep track of mistakes made in a warehouse operation. Instead of deleteing the staff, I have check box for 'resigned'. The queries then look up all records where 'resigned' = 0. This way the records are all there...

    If, then, else

    Why not put this into your query as a custom Expr? Then you will get that in the correct place on your form?
