    Split database gone/corrupted PLEASE HELP

    Le Jano: Are you a server administrator? Guess not. So here is a solution: Gina's (remember me?) is right: users must have a local version of the FE. Need to install it physically? no. From the server, you can install anything you want on any connected PC. So, decide on an auto update of the...

    Question Database User Level Security

    Swan: Ignore the bubbles popping out from the replies: useless... Gina's (remember me?) links are interesting but at your level, I don't understand that you don't see the solution! Just add a yes/no field, in the user table, indicating Yes->Read/write, No->Read only. Upon entry, that can be...

    Data Entry Manipulation

    I just don't understand why you get into this complicated procedure. If the data is displayed why can't your supervisor null the field?

    Problems with Hyperlinks combo.

    Ah! Ah! I found were the mouse was hiding! For those 6 readers who read the app one thing went unnoticed: I made a naming error... Usage of Reference was possibly a good idea but Access doesn't like it: it seems to be a reserved word! I changed it for Ref and every thing goes.

    Problems with Hyperlinks combo.

    Visibly, you didn't open the app. All you had to do is open the form and select a ref: I didn't give much info on steps because for an experienced programmer the case is obvious!!!!! The only thing I am expecting from a beginner is: with MY A2013, it works normally or not. OK. Create 2 tables...

    Problems with Hyperlinks combo.

    Did you try the form? If you do not have A2013, the combo lists the refs normally, but when you select one entry, the actual path is lost, replace by a hyperlink to the Reference ID number!!! And what needs to be done to reproduce the same problem? Just run the attached app.

    Date is incorrect

    What you get is the initial internal date: January 1905. Using Month and Year in this context is an error. Instead use: Format(Now(),"mmmm") Format(Now(),"yyyy") and it will work... JLC

    Problems with Hyperlinks combo.

    Hello! WINDOWS 8.1, Access 2013 (Office 365). I started an app to store various data concerning populations of Canada. I cleverly taught of adding a reference for each entry (in socio, this is very important...). Alas, the references combo behaves strangely: see the form...

    Complete Access n00b, is this even possible...

    Well, if you want an absolute solution to the product type selection, just do like Access does!!! Create an invisible intermediate that will open the report selection criteria in create mode (yes sir!) and ADD as many cb as you need (don't forget the label: cb do not come with a linked label)...

    Complete Access n00b, is this even possible...

    As usual your post is quite obscure: you have table records and sort criteria! Figure a form that displays on its left side sort criteria and a command button that will trigger the report printing. You don't say a maximum for product types. Anyway, a very simple solution is to create plenty...

    Database for Metal Market Prices to be used in another database

    Gasman: of course it won't work! since it is using a control that didn't exist at that time. My problem is simple: my version of A2013, came with Office 365, is fu.. up! I cannot open an app as an .mdb...

    Regular form from multiple table without subform

    Can you submit a dummy version of your DB? Respectfully, your DB schema is strange and your form is equally strange.

    Prevent Linking to Back End

    Encrypt with password the BE: keep this password confidential. You will have to use it to recreate the links of the FE. Compact then encrypt the FE: the password will be given to your users. Once encrypted, well good luck to those who want to sneak in.
