    Edge Browser Control and MHTML files. Is it me?

    That’s an entirely different matter. Both of those are still perfectly possible 😉

    Edge Browser Control and MHTML files. Is it me?

    You didn't imagine seeing something about opening the Edge browser directly in Access Back in October, AWF member @MsAccessNL posted this thread: https://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/threads/webbrowser-in-form-without-control-years-to-late.334741 However, he never actually posted any...

    Solved Password the DB how to:

    I agree with @theDBguy that you approached this in the wrong order I can now see why you asked the original question though its from a complete misunderstanding of how linking to an encrypted DB works With regard to the suggested next steps from post #10, there is no need to delete and...

    Solved List Box Sort

    No problem. That's definitely not my example. The person who I think may have provided that is no longer an AWF member. In case it helps, I have different code based on the undocumented SortStringArray function which is part of the Wizhook library and which you may be able to adapt...

    Edge Browser Control and MHTML files. Is it me?

    Solved List Box Sort

    @MattBaldry I do have code to move items up/down in a listbox using up/down button clicks. However, I don't think I supplied the code in post #1. A quick forum search gave me a link to this post where I did post example code...

    Solved Password the DB how to:

    I agree with @DHookom. I am not sure of your reasons for using code to open the BE. When applying security to an Access DB, you need to decide who or what you are trying to protect your database from. I provide a number of options to choose from. Most of the steps available are simple to...

    Solved Report not Opening

    Version 5: Fixed an issue from version 4 if the end user manually sorted by AuthDateEntered DESC To do so, I removed the report sort from design view again and reordered the code in Report_Open. SortedBy textbox control source on report changed back to " = [TempVars]![OrderBy]" I also added...

    Solved Report not Opening

    True - but that's nothing to do with my changes - this would also have been the case in the original database you uploaded. By default, reports ignore any sorting in the data source - whether form or query However they have their own very powerful sorting and grouping feature which is applied in...

    Solved Report not Opening

    You're welcome. I tried to comment the main changes I made but ask if anything is unclear. I recommend one further change: Your form has so many columns that it could be hard for users to keep track of sorts & filters. I've made a further tweak so users can see the details about any filters or...

    Solved Report not Opening

    Done! I've updated it as follows: a) Added Remove Filters & Remove Sorts buttons to your form - both are hidden when the form is first opened and become visible when the end user adds a sort or a filter: b) The report now opens in report view with the same record source as on the form...

    Solved Report not Opening

    Sorry but I've no idea what 'all hell is loose' and 'no matter what I lose control' actually mean. However, if your users are going to sort / filter on the form, then I agree that you do need the code in the Report_Open event In that case, I would suggest removing it in the property sheet. I...

    Solved Report not Opening

    I'm a bit late to the party and am aware that @xavier.batlle found the solution to your main problem. The DoCmd.Restore line is necessary due to the API arguments used in the HideAppWindow function (BTW - its a function - not a module) If you want to hide the application interface, you need to...

    Edge Browser Control and MHTML files. Is it me?

    Had to think about this . . . Presumably you are referring to adding the line 127.0.0.1 msaccess to the hosts file to speed up loading of local files in the Edge browser control?

    How to test for Large Number

    All of that is valid criticism. I didn't post the entire CoPilot answer as I knew that significant parts of it were incorrect. However, I failed to state that in my post for which I apologise unreservedly. I did state that your function appeared to always give the right answer in my own tests...

    How to test for Large Number

    As stated above, both the code in post #2 and that in post #7 appear to give correct results in my tests However, here is the CoPilot critique of Philipp's simple function from post #7 EDIT: There are a lot of incorrect statements in the CoPilot summary above - See @posts #11 & #13 for details...
