With the Folder Image Viewer what happens when you select one of the images in the list box?

Hi Jason For info: I tested this whilst my version of Office was temporarily set to Spanish language The code then caused 6 repeated errors (1 for each image) on the line: If Left(ctrl.Name, 5) = "Image" Then ctrl.Visible = False Disabling the line solved the issue. Of course, it runs fine in...

Good to see you posting here Albert and hadn't realised you had in fact been a member since 2009. I've just spent half an hour reading all your old posts to this forum, full of wisdom and, of course, written in your own unique and entertaining style. So although you certainly aren't new here...

Also, up to around 2022 or thereabouts, you could also embed Excel, Word and PowerPoint objects into Access with almost zero effort. This functionality depended on the old viewers for those document types which MS has now deprecated. However I think all of the recent posts (including mine) are...

Your comment implied that the anonymous contribution was inappropriate. From the site owner's comments, he received a complaint from YKW which caused him to close the two threads and delete all references to that person. That was clear enough. In the circumstances, none of us here have the...

It had absolutely nothing to do with the thread being closed. You raised it as being inappropriate - I responded to that comment. If you want to post a thread to the Code Repository or Sample Databases, then go ahead. Not sure I see the relevance to the now closed threads

The person who sent me the database from the deleted article at "You Know Who's" website said they would prefer to remain anonymous when I asked if I could thank them publicly (in line with my standard practice). That was his/her personal preference which I respected. Absolutely nothing...

OK I've now tested ******** ******** code on 3 machines - all running 64-bit A365 New Win 11 laptop with 64GB RAM - PowerShell initially opens as an external app with a taskbar icon and then moves to load inside Access after about 3 seconds at which point the taskbar icon disappears. Changed...

I don't have A2024 but I've just re-checked and it still works for me in A365 using .ControlSource The prefix should be https://msaccess before the file path Today, I'm having issues with .Navigate though that also worked in the past. Have you tried both setting the local file address using...

Another AWF member who prefers to remain anonymous was kind enough to forward ******** original example which I just tried. The splash screen opened in the Access form but PowerShell itself then opened as an external app with its own taskbar icon. This is also what I saw with various other apps...

@Jason Lee Hayes ******** now deleted article suggested that he was opening external apps within Access (rather than from Access as in my own example app). I assume your example is a modified version of what ******** published and was able to use it to open a number of external apps including...

I went to download ******** code this morning and found that he had deleted the page. Using Jason's example, I tried 4 different apps and was able to load 3 of them successfully. However, like others I'm also wondering what the practical value of doing this actually is - that is beyond the...

Sorry but I still do not understand what you are referring to here The built-in VBA library has been based on different versions of the VBE.dll file for as long as I can remember In Access 2000, it is the first item in this list of references: REFERENCES...

I also use the Picture property in my Folder Image Viewer example app: https://isladogs.co.uk/folder-image-viewer/index.html This automatically rotates or flips the image horizontally or vertically as appropriate, together with an option to save the modified version. For example

The VBA Library is still built-in and cannot be removed. That has always been the case since Access 95

@dalski Just tried Arnel's code. It detects Ctrl+Delete in both the form and subform but only undoes that action in the subform. In the main form, it triggers the message about undoing changes but doesn't actually do so in my tests. All characters to the right of the cursor are deleted in the...

I find KeyDown works better than KeyUp and use the descriptors rather than the value The following works but the KeyUp equivalent didn't fire for me either: Private Sub Form_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer) Select Case Shift Case acCtrlMask 'Control pressed...

@MsAccessNL How soon do you expect to post your solution or video?

Personally I would do this using a VM such as Virtual Box if you only need to use A2003 to convert some old pre-2000 format MDBs. However, if you need to use A2003 more extensively, then a dual installation may be useful. As you already have 64-bit A2019 installed, it should be possible to add...

I used a listbox for the move/resize columns example but as its not multiselect, that could also be done using a combobox just as well. I already use a combobox for restoring hidden columns as that takes up less space. Alternatively it could be done using a custom right click context menu. In...
