    Splitting Database With Different Front Ends

    Hi, Usually, the way to deal with different access rights of users, is by having a table with users and their access levels or profiles that give them right to see forms/reports and perform operations. The users log in and their credentials are saved for the session. Then they are referenced...

    Update Query Changes Calculated Field Value

    No, I am not talking about queries in a table but a restricted value list that is being treated as a text box. Kindly read what is being proposed before commenting. Jiri

    Update Query Changes Calculated Field Value

    Hi, one way to fix that would be to have a value list field (combobox) in the table with text for the three conditions that you named i.e. 8 hrs out, 3 hrs, and late for x minutes. Then if you need to convert the values to points for a report/query you may do that the way you constructed the...

    ComboBox

    If you want to order the combo by LastName instead of ID, display the design of the table, select the combo and then the Lookup tab. On the Lookup tab change the ORDER BY in Source Row to "ORDER BY [LastName]". Best, Jiri

    Tip Disable the Ribbon & Office Button 2007

    Hi Colin, this is a useful set of utilities. Just as a heads up: the resize form utility does not reset the default screen resolution constants(which are 800 and 600) on exit and as a result the windows screen may lose the start button and taskbar, if the native windows resolution is higher...

    Nz function - error "undefined function"

    Get into the VBA editor on the user's machine. Then pick Tools>References on the menu. I assume each user has their own Front End. The Access Object Library should be for the version of Access on the machine( ie. 12.0 for Access 2007, 15.0 for Access 2010, 16.0 for Access 2013). Best, Jiri

    Frustrated....dec 2 hex

    Hi, not sure what you want to do with this. In database design, it makes no sense to store the same number in two fields which only differ in numerical notation. The way to do it is to store the number as decimal and use the hex notation as you need, as a function in a query. Best, Jiri

    Populated textbox still show old text when text in combobox is deleted

    You need to requery the combo box from fom_ClientDetails when saving the new client record. Add the following in red in the Click_Save sub: Else DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord If CurrentProject.AllForms("fom_TaxInv").IsLoaded = True Then Forms!fom_TaxInv!cmb_ClientName.Requery End If...

    Run-time Error 424

    Right, this is not a good idea. I have never tried it, (nor would I) because "calling" an OnLoad event of another form does not make sense. If the form is already open then re-loading it is redundant, if not then the call would skip the OnOpen event of the form where the form object is set up...

    Is Day In String of days

    MickJav, have you actually try to run this code? Did you get any error messages? There is at least one glaring error that I see (I did not look further!). The statementF = InStr(Me![WorkingDays], I) should be flagged by the compiler because "I" is defined as integer and both arguments of the...

    Is Day In String of days

    DlookUp on two tables using Double As ID

    Ljusha, I am not really sure why you need two tables. Actually you can "solve" your issue simply by formatting the hours portion of the field. The join as you wrote the query only serves as a way to restrict the time of the order to only a set of selected values. I don't know why you did that so...

    General Issue

    So it was, PerfMon first, but when I pointed out some issues with it, now you are into Task Manager. Ok. I see. Are you talking about Task Manager on a Windows Server by any chance, are you? I had an impression Khalil was using workstation hardware and OS. Incidentally, the OP mentions that...

    General Issue

    I don't find PerfMon a useful tool. It's difficult to configure to get anything of value out of it, it's buggy and breaks down easily; besides it is known to cause high CPU utilization itself. AFAIK, none of the easily available monitoring tools will give you what you would need to do a real...

    General Issue

    Khalil, for what is worth, nearly every time I experienced the kind of issue you indicate - sudden poor response after certain limit of users is reached, the first solution I learned to look at was the server's (or back-end computer's) memory. Most of the time, simply adding memory fixed the...

    Using Inputbox date in Select statement

    I think your first problem is that you are trying to do the testing of a date variable on a string. You should define FiltStartDate as Date and obtain by converting the input box variable which is Variant. After you convert it, you should write the SELECT statement with the pragmas as...

    Inventory/Stock Control

    Hi Lynda, just out of curiosity: in order to maintain parts and components stock at reasonable levels you need production targets and a detailed manufacturing map (as you are dealing with a multi-level supply chain). It would be interesting to know how your company makes stocking decisions...
