    2475 - You entered an expression that requires a form to be the active window

    I fixed the hide access window error. Private Sub Form_Load() Me.Visible = True DoEvents Call fSetAccessWindow(SW_HIDE) End Sub But my error handling is still not working correctly. For example if a user clicks the navigation button past the last record; they should receive a prompt telling...

    2475 - You entered an expression that requires a form to be the active window

    I have searched every nook and cranny and found no solutions for this problem… My database hides the access window so it resembles a standalone application. I’m not sure if someone screwed with something, but today I noticed an error while opening the database. Error #: 2475 You entered an...

    Setting Paper Size and Printer Using Code

Anyone find a solution to this problem? Yea, I know this is an old thread. I'll continue to look and if I find something I'll post...

    Thoughts on VB.Net front end

    Thank you for the reply :-) The reason I wanted to switch the front end over to vb.net is for the experience that I could add to my portfolio. I always ran into minor issues with VBA. The syntax is a little different on Access 2003 than vb.net 2003/05 which is what I learned in school and use...

    Thoughts on VB.Net front end

    I have a wonderful database I designed almost 2 years ago. Other than a few hiccups with corrupted data, my employer is 100% satisfied with it. I’m graduating this winter with an AS in computer programming and I would like to update the database to a VB/ADO .NET (VS 2003) front end before I...

    Strange multi select listbox error

    Sorry for my late response. I tried that, both ways. Same problem with listbox highlighting blank rows after the furnace is deleted. I found a fix which I’m about 90% finished coding. When a user clicks the delete button. I run a query which gives me a count for the furnace name in the record...

    Strange multi select listbox error

    I created a multi-select listbox which I populate with “distinct” furnace names that have been entered into an inspection table. The end user has the option to delete records from the inspection table. The listbox gives the end user the option to filter results on a sub-form, nothing more. When...

    disk or network error

    Then I don’t learn how to fix the problem myself… Oldsoftboss, Nothing worked. I tried importing the tables to a new database, compact & repair. I ended up making a trip to my old database mgt professor’s home and we got 99% of it restored. I think we ended up only losing @ 24hrs of data.

    disk or network error

    I wish i had that option. I take it there is no easy solution. How good are the “Access Repair” tools such as Advanced Access Repair 1.2? Has anyone tried them before? P.S. I have a backup (almost 2 weeks old). So were talking @ 600 lost records. I would like to restore the database and save...

    disk or network error

    Our quality dept had a glitch with the LCD monitor while entering records. From the email I received the LCD screen went black so they abruptly pushed in the PC power button. Now I get a “disk or network error” when I try to open the database. If I attempt to copy the database file to a new...

    Default Values in report fields.

    The report is based on a query with a left outer join. So some fields in the report remain blank (no data).. I would like these fields to have a "N/a" defualt value.

    Default Values in report fields.

    How do you set a blank field in a report to "N/A" or just 0? I have tried Nz([YourField],0) and iif IsNull([YourField],0,[YourField]).
