    Change name of control as form opens

    Thanks Rich your answer basically amounts to the fact that I cant do what I want in datasheet view but there are other considerations which force me to use datasheet view. also you have not answered the fact that there are programs which allow clicking on the header. I thought of pasting a label...

    One of my forms is in datasheet view. The column headers display the "name" of the text boxes. I want to be able to display a different column header under certain circumstances so it would seem i have to change the name property of the text box. I have put in the open event of the form...

    Access to visual basic using Diamond edge

    Has anyone tried and had success with "Diamond edge" software for converting access to vb? I need to convert an access program to an exe and this seems to be the most feasable solution. Client does not want to buy Access and runtime is just not realiable enough in my experience! Thanks

    How to make all records print twice in a single report
