Have an odd little problem that I cant seem to solve.... Pick up a very simple code and form on here for linked images in a db.... I added a "Description" field and planning to add some other items..... Problem I am having is after I add the new image I want to set focus on the "Description" field.... No matter where I seem to put the line it does not set the focus!! Can somebody clue me in? This is too simple! I have to be over looking something! Code is as follows..... All works but the setfocus...
Code:
Private Sub cmdAddImage_Click()
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
Call Main
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Current()
Me![imagepath].SetFocus
Me![imageframe].Picture = Me![imagepath].Text
End Sub
Sub Main()
'Declare a variable as a FileDialog object.
Dim fd As FileDialog
'Create a FileDialog object as a File Picker dialog box.
Set fd = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)
'Declare a variable to contain the path
'of each selected item. Even though the path is a String,
'the variable must be a Variant because For Each...Next
'routines only work with Variants and Objects.
Dim vrtSelectedItem As Variant
'Use a With...End With block to reference the FileDialog object.
With fd
'Use the Show method to display the File Picker dialog box and return the user's action.
'The user pressed the action button.
If .Show = -1 Then
'Step through each string in the FileDialogSelectedItems collection.
For Each vrtSelectedItem In .SelectedItems
'vrtSelectedItem is a String that contains the path of each selected item.
'You can use any file I/O functions that you want to work with this path.
'This example simply displays the path in a message box.
'MsgBox "The path is: " & vrtSelectedItem
Me.imagepath = vrtSelectedItem
Me![imagepath].SetFocus
Me![imageframe].Picture = Me![imagepath].Text
Next vrtSelectedItem
'The user pressed Cancel.
Else
End If
End With
'Set the object variable to Nothing.
Set fd = Nothing
Me![ImageDescription].SetFocus
End Sub
This is quite a mystery.
