PayPal and Access?

[perdeb9729]

hi guys,

i'm hoping someone can either help me or put me out of my misery so i stop looking

i have an application that i've created in access that i distribute for free, a lot of people that use it like it so much they want to pay me something for it, so i want to incorporate a paypal donate button into my dashboard

so paypal gives you code for this kind of thing that you can insert into a website - is there any way that code can be inserted into an access form?

if its not possible then thats fine - i just need some kind of difinitive answer so i can go look for another method

thanks in advance

Hi,

without looking at the html code supplied by Paypal - the html they provide includes links to the images and everything associated with a button so it needs to be stripped down.

1. you need an Access form button (not a html or web button)
2. some vb code to call the html string (this can be difficult)
3. a paypal page set up to receive

the idea is, click the button, call the html which should instigate explorer and direct you to the site.

i'll have a play around tonight and what i can come uop with.


cheers

Nidge
