Mile-O-Phile & Pat, Thanks for your responses. I was misleading in posing my question. In the program, English will be entered all the time. Then a request to translate this text into the user selected 2nd language would be made. Thus I only need to go from English to another language and...

Unicode plays a roll? I have not gained much information since posting. In searching the Newsgroups I ran across a convention for incorporating all languages into a character code called Unicode. Apparently this is an expanded character set from ASCI that is 2 bytes in length and can...

Pat, Good idea! I have moved to another part of the program but will look at this when I return to the reports.

I have a difficult time precisely stating the requirements for this report. The goal is to end up with 2 report pages on a single printed page so that the use can cut the report in half and then have 2 pages he/she can bind into a report. As a point of context, the report is concerned with...

Pat, I took a look at their site and included your comment in my notes. I'll check with them tomorrow but hope I can find a solution in the somewhat cumbersome yet pretty darn flexible Access capabilities. As always, your thoughts are greatly appreciated. Thank you and if you think of anything...

Pat, Thank you for your quick response. I found some posts that suggested this but unfortunately this report is to be part of a commercial deployable application, thus I have no control over the printer that may be used. I am finding some useful information as my search continues. Any other...

Greetings, I have been searching for a thread to address but have not thus far been successful. I wish to create a report that when printed will be cut in half (8.5" X 4.5" or 4.25" X 8") to create 2 pages to be bound in a workbook. The report design calls for the first strings of text to...

My client desires that certain text in the data tables of the application I am building be available to users in Spanish and Russian both in forms and reports. I feel confident about the ability to create additional tables with translated text but am unsure how to handle special keyboard...

Pat, Believe me I am looking! Timbo99, I was offered one workaround on another forum. I'll post it here later. It is not very elegant. I did my best to shake Microsoft's tree for an answer yesterday but I am doubtful that anything will result. When I posted to their newsgroups, I could not...

Interesting that there is no response as of yet. Are there any of those MVPs on this forum? I went to www.support.microsoft.com and found no newsgroup devoted to deployment of stand-alone applications. Now, I would have thought that the primary reason for buying XP Office developer was for the...

I plan to use XP Access Developer to create an application for distribution in the commercial market. Customers who purchase the software may have XP but more likely will have earlier versions. I am aware that there is a conflict if a XP Runtime is installed on a PC with earlier versions of...

For what it is worth, I have been using Ken Getz (and others) ADHResize for about 1/2 year in the application I am developing. I have found it to be reliable and stable in use but during design it is advantageous to be aware of: 1) Opening a form in design while not in the base resolution can...

StefanSch, I don't know but am just guessing that the answer is no. Access97 cannot recognize A2K format so it seems most unlikely. I do not understand the huge growth in the run-time developer at all!?! Perhaps someone with more experience can give their 5 cents.

Wayne, I see now that the code example you provided has a serious divergence from my objective. The recordset rst2 is based on 'Table2' but my 2nd rst must be based on rst1. To make matters worse, the table rst1 is based on varies from one instance of the form being opened to another...

Wayne, Interesting! I have posted my question in 3 forums (TeckTips & dbForums) both of which replied that this is impossible in Access. I like your response better. I'll play around with the clues you have provided and then get back to this post.

In VBA coding, Access97, can I reference a recordset in a 2nd recordset? My current code returns a Run Time Error of 3421: “Data Type Conversion Error” when doing so in a fairly simple set of syntax. Ultimately, if I had my way, a 3rd recordset would be referenced as well. I have two...

jjturner, I am sorry, somehow I just lost this thread and never returned. I did solve the problem by creating a temp database and building tables there that I manipulate from the listboxes. I found the way to assign captions to them via a loop on their names (listbox_1, listbox_2, etc). All...

I have attached a Word97 document that provides a detailed explanation of a successful transfer of control from a running Access97 dB to another database. This 2nd dB automatically compacts the dB that called it and then compacts 3 other dBs if they exist. The calling dB is closed after a Shell...

Best I can tell, it works! :D :D :D

Known Error Documdented by Microsoft I found in the newsgroup comp.databases.ms-access a reference to MS Document Q193167 "ACC97: Error When You Click a Custom Command Bar Button" with the following information: SYMPTOMS When you click a menu or button on a command bar, you may see the...
