    Variables that hold user defined data after access closes?

    Heheh, I dont know, it just seems wierd being more attuned and knowledgable about structured coding than databases, and having to accept that I cant do what I wish to via code. Ive done it the way of the table and it wasnt so bad tho.. haha.

    how do we create an automatic backup of a database

    Im sure theres a billion reasons why you shouldnt do this from more seasoned access developers out there, but being a noobie, I decided to simply use 1 line of code for each table in my database.... The transferdatabase command can make a copy of whatever you desire inside of your database to...

    Transferspreadsheet command

    Is there a way to use the range option to specify an all data type of condition instead of simply selecting an overly large range for a set of data that will never be the same in size? IE instead of A1:G10 in the range field, something to the effect of the dos wildcard *.* Any help would be...

    Variables that hold user defined data after access closes?

    Is there a way to have a variable store data and retain that data, even after access closes?

    Can queries edit tables positionally?

    Thanks for the speedy replies. You could use the same technique to fill them in, using an update query and rewriting the code to supply the 1)the previous value when the value is blank and 2)echo the actual value when it is not blank; The biggest problem is that I dont fully understand how to...

    Can queries edit tables positionally?

    Yes, its in excel, im lazy :P Data similar to this is imported into the database I am creating for my users. If you notice, in the servername field, some records have no information.

    Silly question in regards to form appearances.

    For some reason I can never size a form to display the way I wish it to in the user mode. During design, I size it down, sometimes I have to overlap parts of the form with the scrollbars to get it to appear the way I want it to, and then a few form loads down the line, the form seems to grow :P...

    Transferspreadsheet Range option in regards to worksheets in excel.

    Cool, the last option was what I was using, just seemed like I was doing something... bad... by pulling 100 or so blank records into my query in the assumption that the excel worksheet wouldnt ever exceed that count. Thanks!

    excel noob needs help!

    Is there a cell range option that basically equates to 'all data in the worksheet that isnt blank'? IE instead of A1:N7, is there something that states "all populated cells:all populated cells"?
