    Form position on screen

    This works very well except for the Send button beside the Properties adjustment. Clicking this will return an error Error 2467 (The expression you entered refers to an object that is closed or doesn't exist.) in procedure fCurrentForm of VBA Document Form_DcbFormSizer_V3 I like the...

    Form position on screen

    I would be happy to help you back. I ran it again and when I selected dcbFormSizer_V3 as the Current Form it returned the same runtime error 2465 Application-defined or object defined error fFitToScreen = fCurrentForm.FitToScreen

    Form position on screen

    O okay so all the end users are sort of like that, hahaha, I just thought I had a difficult bunch here. Ummm maybe I should sieze the opportunity to ask how to fix the width so they can not squash it to 1x1 pixel or stretch it so it would fit on their home 52" LCD television.

    Form position on screen

    Thank you vbaInet I will now be putting Me.Move 0, 0 Me.Moveable = False into the OnLoad event so that people can not booger around with the position of the forms. I am not at the point yet of the width and height being fixed. I am not going to try to put the thing with a message that "The...

    Form position on screen

    Thank you vbaInet. I went and turned AutoCenter to No and moved the form and saved it and it is where I want to place the form, even on the worst screen in the building. For the Move coding I can get Me.Move (Left = 0) to work but Me.Move (Left = 0, Top = 0) does not it gives me a error...

    Form position on screen

    I tried to search this but all the answers seemed to lead to people making a form fit different size screens and being centered, actually all I want to do is to have my forms open up in the top left corner of the screen. Hopefully this is just a setting to either find the top left or something...

    Trouble with SetFocus

    Thanks for all your help but I have changed strategy. Just gave it some deep thinking and decided that if there is only one text box that the end user needs to go back to I will make it a one and only text box in a subform. Now it works because there is only one place that focus will set to...

    Trouble with SetFocus

    ooooops - yes it is Text5 and not Text1 as I first said. I actually copy and pasted from my VB the second time so that is really the real text box name. I am not getting any error message at all and I tried debugging by stepping through the entire code in case there is somewhere that it takes...

    Trouble with SetFocus

    I just tried it and it still sets focus to the combobox and not the textbox. I tried DoCmd.GoToControl ("Text5") DoCmd.GoToControl "Text5" I have been trying to run the whole code in both AfterUpdate and OnExit events. Everything else works except placing the focus back to the textbox.

    Changing font sizes in a textbox

    Thank you HiTechCoach - I looked at those links you posted and the second link has provided me with a sample that I might be able to work with if I can get it to work on my application. They are in Access2000 and I am stuck using Access2003. Well it might not be stuck because Accees2007 seems to...

    Changing font sizes in a textbox

    I searched and did not find an answer so maybe this is something newish. I have a textbox on a printed report made from contatenating some fields and what I want to do within the textbox is to have just a portion of the text print bold if it matches a certain condition. Can I have the...

    Setting one 'global' font size for chart data labels

    The only tricks I know of so far are these two. In design if you click on the label in the toolbox, before you place the label you can change the default settings so all the subsequent labels you place will have that as an initial setting for all the labels. If you use the wizard to build...

    Rounding down a number 6.375 to 6.3

    To round down you can subtract half of then next decimal place. So you can use Round([ILL]-0.05,1) But you should maybe use DatePart function to convert hours to decimal or you are converting 3/8 into 1/3. ((DatePart("n", [ILL]) / 60) + DatePart("H", [ILL]))
