    Access on a Microsoft tablet

    Thanks Spike, Tablet...I haven't purchased any for this purpose yet. The only thing I know of at this point is I'll need windows 8 or 8.1, with bullet proof cases, and as I'm buying 7 of them, I'll need to keep the price reasonable, say under $500. Any Recommendations?

    Access on a Microsoft tablet

    CJ, Don't mean to hijack the thread, but I have the same questions....In my case, I would be using Access 2010 runtime on the tablets, to run a "read only" app I would create to read information off our ERP system database. We are a manufacturing company, and this would be used on our shop...

    Recordset Theory

    VBAInet, Yes, that was me. I'm happy to say I've been able to accomplish that with the above code. I'm using a ODBC Driver for google apps from Cdata, which seems to be working nicely. There is a limitation with column widths (254 I believe), but I don't think this will affect me. Thanks...

    Recordset Theory

    Good Morning Gentlemen, Sorry for the delay, but I'm not a full time programmer, and my other duties pulled me a way for a bit. I'll attach what I've come up with so far, which seems to be working. Basically, I put together a recordset for the query I'm browsing, and a recordset to...

    Recordset Theory

    I have an instance where I have 3 recordsets I need open at one time. Let's say Query A, then table A and Table B that I'm populating. So, Recordset #1 loops through qryA, then based on a Logical test, I need to either enter records into tblA (rs2) or tblB (rs3), depending on the logical...

    Proper SQL Syntax for insert string

    Thank you VBAInet for your input. After a fresh start this morning, I tried to utilize a simple append query through the interface, and they appended fine. I'm thinking of going in the following direction on this project instead. Using VBA, build a temp table and populate it with the...

    When are we going to get "modern" controls?

    Thanks everyone, I have access 2010 and 2013 available to me. While we're at it, does 2013 offer any additional web options? I've looked at the web databases in the past but was kind of put off, by the data structure and that you can't use VBA.

    When are we going to get "modern" controls?

    So, this afternoon I had a webinar, where a software development company was showing me what they were capable of. The particular application they were showing me was all cloud based, built as a full ERP system, in Silverlight. What really blew me away was how modern and smooth all the...

    Proper SQL Syntax for insert string

    I've been out of VBA and access for months now, just hopping in to accomplish a quick little application, and I'm stuck.... I'm trying to use an ODBC adapter from Cdata to push information to a google calendar. I've got it hooked up, and I can read data within a DAO recordset, but .addnew...

    Using info in MSysObjects to relink tables

    OK, I'll resurrect this one more time.... Did you have any luck? I'm trying to re-establish the links to an SQL db. I want this to be a dsnless connection, as I'm hiding the username and password for the db from the users, and this will be deployed off site. I did open up the mysobjects...

    Open Database syntax issues

    Oh yeah, and it will work with currentdb....but I don't want to do that. You see, I'd like to make this a unique connection, before the linked tables are refreshed. If the login fails, then the db closes before anything can be written or changed. I'm open to ideas :-)

    Open Database syntax issues

    Ok guys, my apologizes, I thought this was going to be a quick "duh" kind of answer. Here's the code: Private Function ValidateLogin() As Integer '==================================================================== ' Comments: Compares both the Hard drive code, and the username and...

    timestamp data type

    Hello, I'm trying to use a timestamp data type in a table to tell compare two tables (local and cloud) to determine if one has been modified. However, I can't seem to get the field to populate. From what I understand (not much!) the field is supposed to auto-populate when a record is...

    Is it possible to connect using subdomain?

    OK, First off, thanks for taking a look at this. Please realize that I'm a newbie at setting up an SQL db, and I don't know all the in's and out's. I have created an SQL database through SSMS that I have now placed in hosting on a Godaddy account. I have connected to this...

    Will pass through query be faster?

    Thank you Pbaldy, I see your point. I wonder if I should consider a local temp table. something that loads that complete table (30 records or so) upon startup, and deletes them all on closing. If I were to go this route, is it ok to leave that temp table in my accde front end, or do I...
