Downloaded and am trialing Visual Basic 2005 Express.
Created a couple of forms, but went to do a couple things and said WHAAAAT??
Tried to set the tab order of controls. The only way I could find was to go to each control and enter the no.
Went to draw an etched box around a couple of text boxes. None available
Cant find a way to lock a text box so the cursur cant enter. It has a read only property, but that still allows yo to click ing the box. The locked property refers to the position rather than locking the contents.
All the text boxes seemto be formated as text. So when you are entering numbers, and want to manipulate them mathically, am finding it very difficult.
Went to help...
You think Access help is bad, well take a look here. Tries to use online help, but when it finds no results (nearly every time) tells me to change the options to use local help first, then online help, and when you check, it is already set that way.
Brother.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
