Man, Colin is such a legend. He has an article for everything.

That's what frameworks are for, not having to worry too much about widely known vulnerabilities. Just find production-ready components for your frontend, render stuff server side, validate all inputs client side and server side, both, and make sure only authenticated users can perform actions on...

I take full responsibility of my advice. Hands-on learning and project-based learning are widely recommendable.

I'm being unfair, if you like Microsoft products a lot, there's C# web development as well. Blazor, MSSQL, you can build minimal APIs with the new frameworks as well. That could be another stack. It's very valid as well. .Net is also faster than NodeJS, it's more refined and an excellent...

Because you want to build a web app that uses a browser. Access has the web browser control and you can also write html code dynamically and then show the page to your users with an Access frontend, but it's not going to be a professional solution. It's going to be a hack, a temporary thing that...

Choose a stack, OP I recommend MySQL, Express, React and NodeJS. You'll use mostly JavaScript for this, so it's very convenient because you write both the backend and frontend with the same language. Let me know if you have doubts about this suggestion, but for what you've said, that stack...

It seems like he could be up to something sneaky there. The domain didn't have any content the last time I checked, specifically because you mentioned it had a hidden message in the source code. When I tried opening it, I encountered a 404 error. I also noticed that he used ChatGPT to generate...

The devhut.net domain still points to a server. https://dnschecker.org/#A/devhut.net He may have just moved its content somewhere else, but he kept the domain. Who knows, maybe it'll be accessible soon again.

Well that code looks the same to the previous. If I had to guess, since it's a report of some sort, then it's likely rendered server side, it won't change, thus cheeky's approach of requesting the page as is should work and you don't need IE. If you're only getting that same page, we can not do...

Been fixing a ton of code because of breaking changes provoked by those pesky updates 2 weeks ago and I'm not even using VBA. I hope those updates don't find you in your next non-ms-access project. It's infuriating.

Access has 4 ways to web scrape that I know of: 1. IE, if you want to interact 2. Web browser control, if you want to interact 3. Http request if you just want to retrieve the content 4. Selenium if you want to interact I haven't used Selenium, as I found incompatibility issues, but I have used...

Access will not make it easy with forms, you would have to calculate positions and it'd be just too much trouble. But here's a dirty approach to this that uses reports. Since you can embed a report inside another report with a "continuous" view, you can get the id of the hovered-over report...

1. Create backend with tables: members, subscriptions and payments 2. Create frontend with a members form to perform CRUD operations there 3. Test and deploy

What sort of line are you talking about?

Knowing how to reference things will help you achieve this, CJ_London gave you a link and you say you tried everything but didn't mention what you tried. You have not done anything for what we know. Check the attached database. Hiding controls in forms is easy, you just reference the control...

I thought I was being fair when I did not declare the database in either of the subs. Thanks for pointing it out. Since this is an approaches thread, I made another attempt but being explicit this time, I achieved a similar result to declaring it, kinda faster actually...

It is quite likely a better choice to do it with web frameworks. Tip: Get the job, hire someone who knows how to do as it should and keep the client. Or learn it yourself, but it's not going to be easy to start with a project of such a scale.

AddNew is so so so much faster. Check the attached. Play on top to test other methods, I'm interested in knowing other approaches. Cheers

By "Portal", it sounds like they're expecting a web experience, but you can create a hybrid solution using Access where Access would make things easier and Web where Web would make things easier.

Access needs a revamp to support animations and expose more ways to customize controls to have up-to-date functionality. Either that, or let the web browser control take over and let us manipulate its events in a more flexible way. Hope he's well received for those statements.
