She has read/write/modify....same as everyone else that can access it. This is driving me mad! I removed her and added her again as a desperate attempt.....maybe that will work. (I'm not very hopeful!)

This may or may not be an Access problem, I can't figure it out. I have a small database set up for only 4 or 5 users. I didn't mess with front end/back end because the main function for this db is to alert me of charge corrections I need to make in our system.....before I was getting many...

Kind of an off-topic question here. I'm wondering, purely out of curiousity, how many self-taught Access users we have here. I am one of them.....I know much more than what I started, but know MUCH less than most of the regulars here. Also, being self taught, where should I go to learn...

I am by far not an expert, but I'm going to take a stab at the first question. Instead of a check box for the deceased field, can you have a deceased date? Then you can calculate deceased date - date of birth, and if the deceased date is blank...calculate age by today's date - date of birth...

I'm sure this is simple but I can't get it to work. I have a table called Charges where the user inputs data into 5 fields via a form. The form is in tabular view, where each line is a new record. The problem is that they get overzealous when tabbing from field to field, and start a new...

I believe holiday = vacation in this case.

Go to Tools and then Startup, and enter your form name in the space for Display Form/Page. (You can also select to have the database window not open here.....you'd press F11 once the db is open to open the database window if needed) To maximize it, if it's a form I just make a "Maximize" macro...

I just read a post recently about going into Tools/Options/Advanced and making sure the db was set to open as shared. It was NOT, so I set it to shared. My (dumb) question is this....do I have to go to each individual user's computer, open the db, and set it to shared? The reason I...

I have set up many small databases for various users, and have only recently been reading about splitting into front end/back end. Most of these databases have been in use for quite a while....is it too late to split them? I also have many many questions about splitting databases, and Access...

Well we don't so much 'reconcile' data as we do input it into the main system once it's back up. Previously, we printed a report of all patients registered in this "downtime" database. We then went into our main patient accounting system and registered each patient there, making sure to assign...

I am going to set up a database (for the 2nd time--first time was really messy and ugly) that will be used to register patients when our primary computer system is down. Doesn't happen a lot but when it does, it's for extended periods. Patients need to be assigned an account number from 1 of 2...

Tools / Startup then add the correct form in the "Display Form/Page" field.

Our company wants to add the kitchen menu to our intranet site. Currently the dietary team leader handwrites the menu and makes copies for various departments. I asked her if she would mind typing it out so it can go directly on the intranet without a 2nd party having to type it up from her...

Hey, that's pretty slick...thanks! One question (for now, anyway) for you...how do I change the layout of the labels? I've read the readme file but don't see any reference to that and I can't tell by looking how you have it set up. Also (I guess that's 2 questions) I see on your test...

I have a very simple database set up with only 3 fields....Item#, Description, and PatCom#. I set up a report from an enquiry...they enter the Item # and each 3 fields display numerous times so that they print out on a sheet of labels. Works great. Now the problem. They don't always want a...

I have a database that another department enters charges they want me to add and/or remove from patient accounts. I go in periodically and display a report (based on an enquiry) of corrections that need made. Once I've made them, I go back to the form where they enter the information, and...

We have a form on our intranet page (created with Front Page) that sends all records to an Access database. We go into Access daily and look for new workorders that have been submitted. My question is, can we be notified by an email when new record is added? I played with the SendObject...

Well, see, I KNEW it would be simple!! :) Thank you very much!

Instead of using the switchboard I'm setting up a form to use so I can have a little more control. The problem I'm having is probably pretty simple but I can't figure it out. The toggle buttons I've created work great, but they STAY looking pushed in. They still work like this but I wish when...
