I have additional software that use those registry keys as well. Easiest way for me is to change the VB apps to include the new registry location. Problem solved. Access always wrote to the registry, so that wasn't actually broken, had i searched the registry for the keys it put in, I would...

I use this code and more like it to link to VB applications that I have made, Didn't want to use the inbuilt access one (probably cause i didn't know it existed) I had a look at my UAC settings, they are set to minimal (lowest) and EnableLUA in regedit is already 0...

Hi again, I have a database that writes to the registry in Windows XP but doesn't in Windows 7 (works with Server 2003 as well). Below is an extract of the code I am using, but it doesnt' work with Windows 7. Any help would be appreciated. Oh, and yes, the keys are already there as I have a...

wow, I think with that reply I can understand how much I have left to learn. I think I can grasp the method here, basicly just populate a copy of my tbl_Staff_Hours with all the staff, then update the real table as the records are modified? Staff hours will be done day by day along with...

Hi again, I am boggled by another problem with a staff table and a related table for staff hours. I have 2 tables, tbl_Staff and tbl_Staff_hours, they are related by StaffID which is just a number (their proper staff number, no autonumber) What I would like to do is display all staff and next...

work around Private Sub Form_Current() If CurrentRecord <> 1 Then DoCmd.GoToRecord acDataForm, "frm_stationStats", acFirst 'MsgBox (CurrentRecord) End If End Sub End If not really sure why it was doing it but it would do it on all forms where there was only one record, the other forms which...

lol, i have only figured out where my problem lies, not how to fix it >< the only idea which i have is to not allow tab stops on check box's but in one or 2 places I need it to stop there. sucks to be me at the moment ><

OK, I have figured out what causes it. The mousehook actually does work on some things, but not when you are focused on a check box, when you move the mouse wheel on a check box, it changes records. ><

Looks like I might be doing something wrong. Attached is a quick, and I mean Really quick test database, scroll wheel on and off doesn't seem to work. If it works for you, please let me know and I will try to further analyze my computer. EDIT by the way the mousehook sample database does...

Using access 2003, saving in 2000 format, I will make some new databases and see whats going on, if its global, I must have a different problem. Will post a database if the small scale tests come back annoyingly similar.

Hi, mousehook problems again, no scroll wheel works on main form but doesn't work on the forms that count (pop up forms) tried calling it when the forms loads but no good, no which way that i do it will turn the mouse wheel off for the pop up forms. 'pop up form Private Sub Form_Load() Dim...

Thanks for the reply Banana. I ended up relinking the tables and i could insert the password there and not have to do it again. Don't know why I couldn't find the info how to do that online (although it did seem quite obvious after i did it). I would love it if i could find a good tutorial...

Wow, looks like we are doing the same thing but i am one step behind you. Would you mind showing in my thread how you got your front end to enter the password into the back end please? http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?p=876610#post876610 or link to the thread where it...

Hi again ! I am trying to protect a back end of a database that i am creating with a password. I used "Set database password" on the back and it works great. What i am having problems with is making the front end (which still has the tables linked to the password protected back end) connect to...

Worked like a charm, the site I got my info from was for the first word. took me a while to figure it out. Cheers!

I am making a staff form, it has firstname, lastname and a quickname field What I am trying to do is to make a suggestion for a quickname \ callsign by taking the first character of the first name, a "." then the last name. Trying to use Left and Len with out much success. I had it working at...

Ok, looks like I have solved my problem, turns out that I couldn't save the form anyway after changing the label caption. So I changed the method: Close the main form open main form in design view change the labels caption change all colors to default close the main form saving changed open the...

This might be a really simple thing to do but for some reason i can not do it. I have 2 forms, the main one has a bunch of labels used as buttons with a text box behind them, depending on what number is in the text box, the back ground color of the label \ button is changed accordingly. I have...

should have put closure to this thread a while ago when i fixed my problem. fixed my problem the looooong way around. using a back ground picture of a human body, I cut out each part of the body ie. eyes, nose, ears, left pec, right pec, spine etc and assigned them to a non visible picture...

cheers for that, It would do what i want, but i see problems down the track if it ever goes multi user. (while it would probably work, i would like to see if i can keep things in access with minimal external files). As much of a pain as it is, I think that I will just go with the ugly red...
