    Capturing User Name from form field entry

    OK. I think I understand. It makes sense to me. Now, in the case that I have multiple users using this functionality at the same time, will the 'global' nature of this feature overwrite content from one user tothe next... or is it contained within each user's session like filtering forms...

    Capturing User Name from form field entry

    "global variable?" That sounds promising, but I am not familiar with that functionality. I'll do some searching. What would the syntax of something like that look like? SomeVariable = Me![Username] Then close the form? Could it possibly be that easy? Thanks again for your kind help.

    Capturing User Name from form field entry

    In this db, the users select their name from a dropdown in an auto-open form, but with no password. I want to capture this value for use as the default value in a field on another form, but with the first form closed. I have seen the ENVIRON(Username) function referred to many times on here...

    Is my IF statement too long?

    Try this =if(mod(month(n5),3)=1,n6,if(mod(month(n5),3)=2,m6+n6,if(mod(month(n5),3)=0,l6+m6+n6,"error"))) --- --- --- EDIT: Actually, it might even be easier than that, if you guarantee the entries will always be dates...

    Hi all. I replaced my laptop when the hard drive crashed, and got a new hard drive for the old unit for my grandkids (age 4) to use for games. Sometime during the last four years, I have misplaced the restore disks and now have no OS. Does anyone know of a resource to get Windows cheap? It...

    Numerous invoices on orders - averaging by chronology

    We have a billing scheme in which we partial-bill ceratain customers based on certain events: 30% when they sign the contract, 30% a number of days later, 30% when we ship the goods and the last 10% upon installation. This is a common process, known in many indistries as 'progress billing.'...

    Calculating workdays... and previous threads

    Thanks. I have seen similar modules as well. Once I have created the module... then what do I do? I am assuming I write a query or create a form in which I can refer to the module... but have no experience in the syntax to make hte reference to it. Thanks again for your help.

    Hello. I've been trying very hard to get through the various instructions, code, modules, etc, on calculating workdays. I am having no luck in getting this done. As one who can write an Access database only to the point of a little VBA, using mostly queries and formulae to get by, I have...

    Value of Yes or No on Form

    Also!!! I use this kind of code to have subforms visible under certain circumstances as well. But, if you do something like that, make sure you repeat the code in the On Open and On Current events as well, so that as you open the main form or move between records, you will get consistency in...

    Value of Yes or No on Form

    Is this a Yes/No checkbox or is it a radiobutton? If it is a Yes/No checkbox, the value for Yes is -1 (negative 1). Otherwise, it sounds like a simple IF ____ AND _____ THEN statement type. I believe that any code would go in the AfterUpdate event of the checkbox to drive what you are...
