    Setting report query parameters from VBA

    I have a report that is based on a query with many parameters (e.g. [piEnterDate]). On the Report_Open event, after I have collected values for all of the query parameters and stored them in public variables, all I need to do now is to assign these values to the query's parameters. What is the...

    Question Creating end-user menues

    This is embarrassing, but I couldn't find any hint on this basic task. I have created my first application - I have tables, queries, forms and reports. Now, I need to build some sort of end-user MENUS that activate forms and reports. How do I do that? I know one option is to build a launching...

    Calling a dialog form with HTML control that returns OK/Cancel

    ByteMyzer, Thanks for your idea - I'll give it a try. darbid, I'm fully with you on this, and I don't have any issue with the user hitting the "send" button. I'm not using Outlook, though. I'm sending this email through a Gmail account using smtp (see here an example, only I had to change port...

    Calling a dialog form with HTML control that returns OK/Cancel

    Hello. I have a module in which I construct a STRING holding an email body in HTML format (contains HTML tags, such as <BR> and nbsp's). Before I send out the email I'd like to present to user with the email content as it will arrive for approval, and based on his choice (OK or Cancel) - stop...

    Maintaining total of a subform records

    Bill, Thank you for this. It is a good design practice for a normalized DB, and typically that's what I do. At times, given logic/storage tradeoffs, I opt to divert from this practice and store redundant data so that a lot of logic work is saved. However, giving it a second thought, in...

    Maintaining total of a subform records

    Maintaining total of a subform records

    Getting the result I want to be displayed in an unbound textbox is not a problem. I got that already. The point is, the target of this calculated value is a BOUND control. In other words, manipulations of subform B needs to update a field in the underlying source of subform A, and immediatelly...

    Maintaining total of a subform records

    I don't have a MainForm and a SubForm. I have two PEER forms, placed within two neighbouring form controls, on a blank empty form. (I access one subform from the other by me.parent.sfrmX...). Your suggestion, if I understand correctly, is to update the Orders row through a DB update (update...

    Maintaining total of a subform records

    Both are continuous forms. I don't mind that the whole recordset is requeried and refreshed upon each change of the relevant field in sfrmOrderLines. I couldn't get it to work. What unbound textbox are you referring to? I know how to make an unbound textbox reflect such changes. The problem is...

    Maintaining total of a subform records

    Hello all! I have two peer subforms on a main form: sfrmOrders, sfrmOrderLines. The sfrmOrders has a control (as part of the "Detail" area) bound to a table field: Total_Before_Discount. In this way, the user can see each line of order-header with its total. sfrmOrderLines has two bound fields...

    Error trap not trapping

    jdraw, Adding the single quotes causes a data type mismatch error. The way it is written is working great - in this function and in another one. The function is called for each record. The only time it fails is on the first time, when the subforms are loaded before their parent, in which case I...
