    Newer company PCs reflecting wrong version of Access

    I found the solution to this - though I am not sure what caused it. Again, every install is done from the same setup.exe file. However, in the VBA7 folder within program files C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VBA\VBA7 There is a VBE7.DLL file. This DLL needs to be a version...

    Records overwritten instead of saved as new

    Thank you! Another question though - would this require me to know what the default values are that I am carrying over? If so, this could vary with each entry. Here are the fields on the form: todays date, first name, last name, depart date, return date, destination city, destination state...

    Records overwritten instead of saved as new

    Yes. I do understand that it is technically saving and not submitting. Poor word choice for the button and message, I suppose. To the users though, it all means the same thing. Lol

    Help - Records not always saving to table

    Yes it is split. Everyone has the front end and only me and another person have access to the backend. The submit button has VB code that saves the record to the table and sends a "Thank you, your request has been submitted." message. As far as I've always tested, if you see this message, it...

    Newer company PCs reflecting wrong version of Access

    All of our machines run on Windows 7. Very weird. EVen if I try to upgrade the problem PCs to SP2 with the free link online, it doesn't work.

    Printing filtered reports?

    It is not really an input form that calls a report. Its the navigation form where you can display diff reports/forms by just clicking the button of the form you want to see. Once you click the name of the report, the report shows. They filter by using the toolbar at the top.
