    Prompt for name

    I agree with Ron. It's all about supporting the user. If you force the user to a) remember the EXACT name of the report, and b) type it correctly, you provide two failure points. If you allow the user to a) scroll a list of available reports and b) click on the one they want, you eliminate...

    Confirmed. I have Windows 11, version 25H2. 2026-01 Preview Update (KB5074105) (26200.7705) installed. Microsoft® Access® for Microsoft 365 MSO (Version 2601 Build 16.0.19628.20166 Click-to-run) , updated just now. The same PDF now opens in both the IE webbrowser and the new Edge...

    PDFs no longer open in the legacy IE browser control

    I can't quite get my head around this. Yesterday or the day before, I updated Windows 11 and M365. After that I saw the failure to load the pdf in the web browser control. Today, it loads again. I am now updating M365 yet again and will follow that with a check on Windows 11. However, it is...

    Access has stopped sending report to Outlook all of a sudden

    It might help to show us the code that tries to send the email. That would allow us to examine the process and identify potential issues in it.

    Actually, AWF is UK-based, but by no means UK specific. We all try to be aware of the many international issues, such as date formatting, that everyone confronts everywhere in the world. What matters primarily is the work flow you are implementing for the specific context in which it will be...

    Solved Normalization of "Wide" data to "Long"

    How much have you studied the process of Databasae Normalization? You have an Excel spreadsheet, which is usually not the best starting point because it is "wide" as you say. Overcoming the tendency to think in "spreadsheet" can be difficult. So you have to make a serious effort to approach the...

    Solved Access behaving badly.

    In that case, the SQL Monaco editor is not available and not a factor for your decision.

    Solved Access behaving badly.

    Which version of Access do you have installed? If it's an older version, then you don't have it available.

    Solved Access behaving badly.

    So you can edit the queries with the Monaco Editor? Thanks for the feedback.

    Rich Text Format, yay or nay?

    To address the original question about whether it's worthwhile or not, I would say it depends to some extent on why you would implement it. As noted in previous posts, Rich Text in Access is a subset of html. If you need to bold or italicize words or phrases in a string of text, or maybe add...

    Solved Access behaving badly.

    I'm not sure, but I'd consider also the possibility that removing the Edge browser might impact the SQL Monaco Editor in Access.

    Auto Fill Last Name and First Name

    I've deployed a library catalog app to a non-profit. I didn't cater for this approach to author names. In hindsight, it could have been a better approach, albeit it would add to the complexity of the task to have to do contains searches on Author names to find variations. That might get more...

    Weird Issue

    I doubt that the two issues are entirely separate, but we don't have eyes on the network environment which makes diagnosing the problems more difficult. In Post #1, you wrote, "Even if I copy the DB local I still get errors." Here, by "local" I at least thought you meant the laptop where the...

    Weird Issue

    So either the message is referring to something else and you would help us get to the bottom of this by showing us an actual screenshot of the error message, or there is still a problem in the configuration of the Trusted Locations as they are defined on the Laptop which has the problem. Either...

    Weird Issue

    "Enable content message"? That does mean that you have not yet designated the folder where the accdb resides on the Host PC as a Trusted Location for the laptop. If you need help doing that, let us know. Until you do that, there will be problems running it from the laptop as it is now set up...

    Weird Issue

    I'm sorry, but I don't know what this means, "...asks you to give access rights but hasn't." Please explain, or better yet, show the actual message as a screenshot. I suspect, though, that it does refer to the problem of not having designated Trusted Locations. I'm going to refer to the...
