    Moved MDB to Win 7, Date function doesn't work

    I have an A2000 mdb file (not split) which I moved from Win XP to Windows 7 which uses A2003. Now my code gets an error when I try to call the Date function. Error is: "Compile error. Cannot find project or library". Don't I need to set a reference to a DLL somewhere? I cannot find the...

Well, times have changed and now I have spreadsheets with multiple tabs. How do I use VBA to get the...

    E2010: change cell background on import?

    A lot of my job has to do with taking a text file separated by tabs into columns, and importing it into Excel 2010. Are there any codes I can embed in my text file which will format that cell?

    A2003: Cursor jumping around, autocorrect messing up typing

    Holy crap. That must be it. All my forms have a clock, updated by a timer event. And the edits I was doing, that were getting hosed, were when I broke into code while running multiple forms. Is there a fix for this? I believe I have the latest patches via Windows Update.

    A2003: Cursor jumping around, autocorrect messing up typing

    A2003 SP3 (11.8321.8333) on Win XP I think I have some type of autocorrect turned on. Whenever I am typing in a code window my cursor jumps all over the line, so the letters I typed are out of order and is gibberish. This about doubles the amount of typing I have to do because I have to retype...

    Check for open forms?

    Bob, They create a new function for modularity. Every once in a while, Access stops supporting a function, property, or method, and if you have to search 57 modules to update your direct reference, it takes a lot of time. Or you could make a function, change it once, and you're done. So, I...

    Check for open forms?

    A2003 on WinXP I have several tables: table1 which is linked to multiple entries in table2, each record of which is linked to table3. Therefore, I have forms like: Form1 (with subform) which links to Form2 (with subform) which links to Form3. So, if the user opens Form3, I need to make sure...

    Error when I click button on subform

    I recreated the subform and it seems to have fixed things. Also, isn't the error handler labeler local to the event, since the event is actually a procedure? My example above was an exception, in that it didn't use the label "MyError:". Or are labels global to a form, report or module?

    Error when I click button on subform

    I use the same label (MyError:) in all my events on the same form, to handle errors. Is this a problem? The Access wizards generate unique labels to handle errors.

    Error when I click button on subform

    I compiled my MDB file, compacted it, and restarted Access. I still get the same error. I wish Access was more specific when it gave an error message. It would be nice to point me to an event or control name that was the problem.
