    Determine scaling in Microsoft Access

    Yeah, the only issue I've been having is when people are working on their laptops. When they have their laptops docked, there hasn't been an issue.

    Determine scaling in Microsoft Access

    So I'm running into an issue with Windows 10 users in my database. For a lot of users, the default scaling (or zoom) is set to 125% or 150% since they have a high resolution monitor. I have no issues handling different resolutions as I know a function to determine it, but I cannot find a way to...

    Split database slows to a crawl when >1 user

    I get what you're going at here. I've tried something similar by stripping away each specific part of the form and seeing if it made any difference in terms of speed to load the form. I wasn't able to pin it down to a specific function, but I'll give this method a shot.

    Split database slows to a crawl when >1 user

    Split database slows to a crawl when >1 user

    Thanks, I've already tried pretty much all of the things in the link. And below is essentially my entire database. There's a couple other tables for stuff that's used in combo boxes, but the majority of stuff that is loaded at startup is between these two tables. We get a single run that needs...

    Split database slows to a crawl when >1 user

    It's currently pretty deep, but I tried moving it to the top level and saw no difference. 7 The database was designed in such a way that every table is able to use optimistic locking and minimum locking and all are set as such. I just tried using a query, it that improved load time by about 5...

    Split database slows to a crawl when >1 user

    I have a split database with each user having their own copy of the front end, and the backend hosted on a network folder. On startup, I open a hidden linked form to the backend to maintain a consistent connection and also open a switchboard for the user to interact with. When there is only one...

    Linked Table to Exchange Public Folder Mail items

    Sorry to bump something from six years ago, but I came across this thread and am having the same exact problem as OP (and my database is already split). I wasn't able to find the Schema.ini file that was mentioned either. Does anybody else have a solution for this?

    Keep formatting of outlook email body in access form

    I currently have a linked table in access that points to a folder in outlook. I want to be able to manipulate these emails inside of access. I'm able to do this, but the only problem is the formatting of the email body field (called contents in the linked outlook table) is lost. I have the text...

    Hide Access window and only show switchboard form

    I have a simple database that around 20 people are going to be entering data into. I'm trying to simplify this as much as possible to reduce the amount of problems they might run into. I have a switchboard form that gives the users everything they need to interact with (four forms and three...

    Help with structure of first database design

    Here are all my relationships. I didn't include them originally because I thought it'd be easier to just see the two that are giving me issues. Please see attached. And there are not a "fixed" set of tests, but I believe I have what you describe in terms of my run information table being a...

    Help with structure of first database design

    I've done a decent amount of reading having worked through nearly an entire access textbook. I've already setup my tables and tried to include a picture with my post showing my relationships, but I can't since I haven't posted 10 times. My table structure is as follows: I have one table called...

    Help with structure of first database design

    I’m trying to create a database where the operator (me in this case) receives a log and then assigns multiple people to review this log based on the various subsystems they represent. So for example, a test is run called x. Once x is run, I receive the log of x and assign five people...
