    Column Width in Table

    CJ, I am attaching a txt screen print of my Waiting List Form, I hope that this iss satisfactory. As you will see the [Leader] field is empty for each record. The Combo Box [Group Name] is meant to retrieve [Group ID] and {Leader] from the [Groups] Table. It achieves the former but not the...

    Column Width in Table

    Hi, Many thanks for the further suggestion. However, the remaining problem is not what is displayed in the [Wait List] Table. If random names are entered by hand into the [Leader] Textbox in the [WaitList] Form they are correctly displayed in the Table. The question remains why is the...

    Column Width in Table

    Thank you for your continued interest. I will try to be more concise. The [Waiting List] Form contains 6 fields in total and 3 of them are retrieved from the [Groups] Table. The fields are; [Group ID], [Group Name] and [Leader]. The Group Name is entered by selection from a Combo Box which...

    Column Width in Table

    Many thanks for the rapid response. Column Count 3 did the trick, but I can't fathom the count number! Did you have any thoughts about the failure of the Form to pull in the [Leader] data from the same [Groups] table? jcbhydro

    Copy & Paste text field to multiple records

    Good Morning, I have been unable to find a simple way to copy a text entry from a Table Field and paste it to multiple records in Datasheet view. The Toolbar 'Paste' procedure copies to the selected record only and I am unaware of how to select multiple records, as per a spreadsheet procedure...

    Password Protected Forms

    Thank you Shoji for your comments, No, I have not stated an intention to give 50 participants access to the database. My first posting on the subject sought advice in principle to the feasibility of access to password protected Forms. ie each participant would have access to a password...

    Password Protected Forms

    Hi Shoji, Thank you for your interest. To respond to your quesstions; 1) The Group Leaders are not on a Network. ii) I don't understand 'front & back end'. The Database consists of 5 Tables, 6 Forms & sub-Forms, 25 Queries, about 10 Reports and a couplee of multi-Report generating Macros. All...

    Password Protected Forms

    Many thanks Paul for your prompt and useful reply. I now have to decide whether it is worth proceeding with task, in view of the very lukewarm attitude of half of the 50 Group Leaders to any IT flavoured project. Regards, jcbhydro

The database includes 5 Tables which store data relevant to members, another which stores...

    Conditional Formatting in Forms

    Many thanks to all those who have made suggestions to solve this problem. As a result of these contributions, I have eventually achieved success. I have found that instead of defining the checkbox expression as [Mail List].[LifeMember], i have redefined it simply as [LifeMember] and then it...

    Conditional Formatting in Forms

    The data type of the check box is defintely yes/No. I have just noticed that the format was True/False, but switching that to Yes/No also has no effect. The default value of the Currency field is most definitely zero (0) not Null. The record source for the Currency field in the Entry Form is...

    Conditional Formatting in Forms

    I apologize for failing to answer your question, but I mistakenly thought that the element of the expression [Mail List].[LifeMember] pointed to [Mail List] being the table in which the field [LifeMember resides. The solution suggested by Gemma the Huskey ie [Checkbox]<>-1, doesn't work either...

    Conditional Formatting in Forms

    Thank you for the suggestion, but it doesn;t solve the problem. My requirement is that when the [£Recd] field = 0 the background colour should be yellow, except when [LifeMember] is True. I cannot understand whu 'AND plus <>TRUE' doesn't work. In fact it turns off the conditional formatting in...

    Conditional Formatting in Forms

    Good Afternoon, I have some Conditional Formatting of a Currency Field in an Entry Form. The cell is conditionally formatted with a yellow background when the value is zero. I now wish to add an additional condition to the expression such that even if the value is zero it will not be formatted...
