    should this be many-to-many?

    3 "1 to many"s Also in the query (when you decide to make one) you can alias the same table multiple times. So you'd need: Main table mainid pos1id pos2id pos3id otherinfo Peoples table PeopleID Other info Query something like: Select maintable.*, qrypos1.*, qrypos2.* from (maintable left...

    Check Cashing Database

    Use a scanner for the cheques image. Better than a web cam (unless you have the webcam on a brace pointing at a selected area where the cheque rests?). vbforums in the database section there is a sticky thread with a tutorial on putting picture/files into databases including Access, should you...

    Loop and MoveNext problem!

    A different way to open the query as a recordset?? Not heard of that done like that. Are you sure its returned a recordset? Also, if its just filling another table, and there is not likely to be much data, perhaps an Update query could be more appropriate?

    help needed pls

    You didn't mention it was for Asp. Best to create your own function to put the date as a string on the screen. As to validating, the CDate function still works. So you really need to know what the day is... hmmmm DateDiff function - you could see if that is in there. I'll think on it and post...

    popup textbox

    You can possibly resize the textbox on got focus and lost focus... You'd have to experiment with it though. something like: public sub txt_GotFocus() txt.width=300 txt.height=30 end sub public sub txt_LostFocus() txt.width=30 txt.height=10 end sub

    Importing xml to .mdb - Help!

    A person in another forum is doing something like this. He was using Ado and opening a source in that to the xml file and using then sort of like nodes and sub levels properties. Not sure myself. The alternative is to create a text parser that reads through the file and deciphers it as...

    Progress bar on file upload

    um dunno - I was messing with FTP stuff through access and only got as far as connecting and browsing. I ignored the way you are currently doing it and the relative API commands as they didn't allow me to show how much of the file had gone. I couldn't successfully open the file for read/write...

    Validate numbers to nearest 0.5

    Just a thought - check the functions Round and Fix. They may do what you need. Otherwise try Format(<variable>,"#0.0") Vince

    Join Problem

    Let me get this straight; you want the facility codes to be matched, the month and year from the hours and the month and year from the incidents, with the incidents totalled by the LTI field. Select [qryHours].facilitycode, [qryHours].hoursMonth, [qryHours].hoursYear...

    "File sharing lock count exceeded"

    I gathered that it was the amount of changes I was trying to make, not the locking of the record (as its only me and me in the same Access db and no-one else). But it appears its a works machine fault as it ran fine with no tweaking at home and processed the lot. Vince

    Join Problem

    Probably need a sub/second query to get the counts of LTI with the facility code. Then get the hours table and left join to the query above. The following is rough and you should use the query builder to assist you. Select [hours].facilitycode, [hours].hoursdate, [hours].[hours]...

    Problem With Unbound Forms!

    You are not accounting for nulls... This means your checks are um well pointless as it compares to null and either errors or doesn't compare properly. Try putting this in a module (global) public function nnz(byval varA as variant, byval varB as variant) as variant...

    "File sharing lock count exceeded"

    Has anyone come across this error in Access 2k and if so, do you have a work around. Its caused by updating on ore more fields per record for 7000 ish records (hitting a default lock limit of 9500 locks per file (I assume this means updates). I never had this problem before during imports etc...

    SQL Query: Having 'OR' clause causes problems

    help with working days

    Search via google or by the search button for the forums (link somewhere on the page). Working days in excel - not a problem as you've found. In Access however I don't think there is an option, so its either a chunk of code or an Ms function which wasn't mentioned before (possible datediff -...

    Excel automation, cannot quit Excel instance

    Only thing I can see is that you've declared objXL as an Excel.Application - which means it is an Excel application already. For getobject and createobject, you usually define the variable to object. It may be this was the problem? Not sure. Excel is quirkier than Access in this respect :D Vince
