Counting check boxes

[Brianwarnock]

There is no paper clip, what happened when you tried to attach. Is it too big?
Compact and repair in case it is. can you zip it?

When open to reply to your post, the only thing I see at the top is a attachments paperclip. Is there another way to upload my file?

 

[Brianwarnock]

Scroll down from the response box and use "manage attachments"

Thats exactly what I been trying to do, but I still can not attach the MDB. It's only 3MB. I am going to send it from another location in about 3 hours. I am at work and they maybe blocking the MDB extensions. I tried changing the file extension to TXT but I still could not attach it. Any other ideas?

 

[Brianwarnock]

can you zip it?

 

[HeavyK]

Not able to attach any files .... Zipped or Unzipped.. Any suggestions?

mdb

 

[Brianwarnock]

we are not getting your database, I cannot understand why you cannot attach it as per the normal method used to attach files.
Did you compact and repair to minimize its size, can you zip it?

It just will not allow me to do it. I have tried several times. Is there something I need to check on my end? I know I shouldn't have to.

This is the error message I receive after I try and upload it .....

Test.mdb:
Upload of file failed.

I think 3meg may be too big to attach directly.
Did you compact and repair to minimize its size, can you zip it?

Here is what I get after I zipped it ......

Test.zip:
Your file of 834.4 KB bytes exceeds the forum's limit of 785.9 KB for this filetype.

If you haven't done a compact and reair do that first then zip again, if that doesn't work you will have to copy your DB so as not to lose the original and then cut out stuff, forms reports maybe even data not needed for this issue.
Then compact again.

I had the same problem, solved it and posted a sample here on this forum. Search for "Counting Checkboxes On A Continuous Subform". Sample1 Also you can find it at Sample2

Good Luck,
