    Access 03 - Output to PDF

    I think the OP was asking to send via email using VBA. The print drivers I've tried won't allow you to programically save the file in a location of your choice (you may know better) therefore I discounted this option. PDF came in in 2007 but if you were going to upgrade now surely it would be...

    Access 03 - Output to PDF

    John I'm afraid it's the dll method described or upgrade to version 2010. The 2010 built in version creates the PDF's alot quicker than the other method, but both work consistently well.

    Have functions available across databases

    Glad it works for you. Either that sites got the extensions wrong or Microsoft have missed it off the list. Wonder if it would work if you went to all files and then selected it. Not 100% sure but i don't think functionallity is compromised by changing a .accdb to .accda, it maybe just to help...

    Have functions available across databases

    In access 97 to 2003 you can put all of your user defined functions in a database .mdb or compile to .mde if you want to prevent any changes. Then change the file extension to .mda. In your working db you can open a vba window go to references where you can browse and select your .mda file. I...

    Question Help with Access2010 via email attachment not sending.pdf /sending.dat

    To use Docmd.sendobject you need to have a MAPI compliant email program installed and configured on your PC such as Outlook or Outlook Express (if your using Windows XP). You can't use a browser based webmail for this.

I'm relatively new to tapatalk so wondering if its me, not configured properly at AWF, or at tapatalk?

    Free UK Postcode Lookup - revisited

    That seems to work, though the data in the list box is out of sync, but if you are going to assign each element of the address to different variables and or form fields you should be able to pick them up from this. There may well be a more elegant way of acheiving, but it works (with limited...

    Problem installing Access 2000 runtime on Windows 7

    Why not go all the way to 2010. Check your code and make sure you remove any depreciated features, make your own ribbon(s). The runtime package is free to download and you should be future proofed for longer

    SMTP Mail with CDO Error

    I have had this error on my remote server. It came and went by its self. I put it down to the connection from the remote server to the smtp server not being available. May be on the domain the smtp server is not available due to security settings, IP or port?... may be?

    References lost at runtime?

    You may need to set the references to the default location before you package the db for runtime, or use some code to set them when the db is opened. Something like Dim Ref As Reference Set Ref = References.AddFromFile("C:\Program Files\Microsoft Outlook\Office11\msoutl.olb") Modify the path...

    An opinion on the best way to modify my dataset

    If you need to store the amended flow rate in access for future reference then you need to modify your data in access, if not then you can do a calculation on the way to Excel. Depending on the complexities you could use a query or VB for either senario.
