    Forms & Data source

    Just as a side note, I know when i have done this in the past, You need your row source on your third box to be a combination of the first two. Otherwise you will populate all data where condition 2 is true. But really what you want is for condition 1 and condition 2 to be true.

    Question Ideas - Submitting Incidents

    I think that's probably more SQL and web based. You can create web based applications using Access, but i think to track changes (and i could be wrong here) it would be a very complicated manner, one that probably wouldn't be justified for "interm" solutions.

I fail to see how this is a database related question. (Should probably make myself clear, not trying to be...

    laccdb - who is in?

    I did know that, noticed it once when i was playing with a front end i was working on. I guess it just never mattered to me because once my front ends are created that means my backends are also created and therefor i really don't care if it's locked because i wont be changing the design of the...

    laccdb - who is in?

    to be honnest, i've never come accorss that issue.. I had no idea that you could view them all in the lockfile with notepad, that's neat. I personally don't worry too much about it because my front ends are stored locally

    AutoUpdate Front End Methods?

    Hey Everyone, I have created a Database on our network. Now I know that people can open the database front end right on a network share without a problem. And call me crazy but i just prefer that the front end database be stored on a user's local machine. So i created a method that, on open...

    The only thing i will add is, I agree that you should reformat the drive and start fresh, nothing worse than working on someone else's problem where you have no idea what they did. Secondly, I did have a similar situation where i was not able to access my BIOS and the only solution for me was to...

    email send (attachment ) but only when

    The only other thing i can think of is that your control is not named attachmentfld. I believe this error can be caused if you get the name wrong. use me.attachmentfld just to make sure you don't have a typo

    Have you ever stepped through code? I would recomend trying it. place a stop at the start of that if statement and see if it actually goes into the 'do nothing Or if it see's it as ELSE it might be a case of the field not actually being null but rather "" in which case you would want to also...
