Thank you.

If I'm not mistaken, Windows XP has an inbedded writing ability that allows you to write files and folders to a DVD (or CD) by simply drag-and-dropping them onto the DVD. Won't this apply to a simple copy command too?

Just as I would, say, with MSDos? The reason I want to know this: I want to write a simple backup application that simply copy files from the HDD to a DVD. Preferably, a date label should be assigned to the DVD. Any suggestions?

What exactly does this code do? I need a bit of explaining to incorporate it into my form. If Me.Dirty Then Me.Dirty = False End If DoCmd.Close acForm, Me.Name Thanks ahead.

Thank you. I'm sure it'll help.

Certain fields in my form are required before a record can be saved. I have a "save record" button and a "quit form" button. When the form is quit before a record is saved, all data entered into the form are lost. This resulted in people entering data that were never saved, because they are...

Thanks, it worked. However, I want the CheckBox's Visible property to turn False on four specific values (not only one.) The colors are W/Blue, W/Green, W/Brown, and W/Orange. This code does not work. Only one color keeps toggling the Visible property: Private Sub Combo75_BeforeUpdate(Cancel...

Greetings. I have a ComboBox and a CheckBox on my form. The ComboBox gets its values from a table called Colors. I want the CheckBox's Visible property to turn False when the ComboBox has a certain value. This is the code I used: Private Sub Product_AfterUpdate() If Combo75.Value = "W/Blue"...

Don't tell me there's no way to do this...

How can I make the gridlines on the forms smaller, more dense? Thanks.

Hello. How can I preserve the user-defined sort order in a column in a table? Every time I exit the table, and go back, my items have been alphabetically sorted. This results in my Combo Box displaying the list in alphabetical order, rather than my custom order. Thanks ahead.

Thanks. I entered this code: Private Sub Form_Load() Me!Product.DefaultValue = Me!Product.ItemData(0) End Sub (Product being my Combo Box's name.) However, I get a #Name? in the Combo Box now. Any ideas?

Thanks. Me!ComboName.DefaultValue = Me!ComboName.ItemData(0) ComboName being the ComboBox's name. DefualtValue? Is this merely a property control, or a user defined value, like ComboName? ItemData(0)? I apologize, I'm not a programmer.

Hi guys, In my form I have a combo box that is bound to a product/specification table. When clicked, this combo box displays a list of products, each with its respective set of specifications (although I configured it so just the product column can be seen.) The reason I do this, is so that...

Still no-one?

Hi, My problem is this: Whenever I enter something into the form other than first choosing the date from the DateTimePicker's drop-down list, I get the notorious error message: Can't set value to NULL when CheckBox property = FALSE. What I can conclude is that the DateTimePicker can seemingly...

See http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=93328 I've tried using an ActiveX Control with the name of Microsoft Communications Control, version 6.0. Does anyone perhaps know how this control works? Any code or property advice that will get me on track will be appreciated...

Sorry, I'm not a programmer. I don't exactly know what you mean...

Is this possible? I have a Mitutoyo device that can be connected to a variety of Mitutoyo measuring instruments (in my case, it's a micrometer.) When triggered, the device obtains a measurement value from the instrument. One can view this value via serial communication in a program like...

Thanks. This worked wonderfully.
