why you don't want to help me

[history]

I've posted yesterday to all of you to help me and no reply

my needs are :

I have made a database and :

1-I put in the startup screen flash movie, it was very good and excited before re-installing windows because it becomes bigger than usual and not looking so good inspite of it is working but hide the text beside it.

2-another thing : the same problem with the Page, that it's not working at all after re-installing windows, it gives me message said "Microsoft Office Web Components could not open the database '................................

3-I put in the welcome sreen form this code that shown below but it doesn't work ....

Private Sub Form_Activate()

'When the database is opened display welcome user message.
'When the timer interval is reached, this form closes and opens Switchboard

If Time() < 0.5 Then
[lblMorning].Visible = True
[lblAfternoon].Visible = False
[lblEvening].Visible = False

ElseIf Time() > 0.5 And Time() < 0.75 Then
[lblMorning].Visible = False
[lblAfternoon].Visible = True
[lblEvening].Visible = False

ElseIf Time() > 0.75 Then
[lblMorning].Visible = False
[lblAfternoon].Visible = False
[lblEvening].Visible = True
End If
End Sub
and then the code to close and open another one

Private Sub Form_Timer()
'On the forms timer event close the start-up form
DoCmd.Close acForm, "Welcome screen"
'Open up the main switchboard form when the start-up form closes
DoCmd.OpenForm "Startup"
End Sub
waiting your reply experts

I'm thinking that you did not reinstall Access in the same way it was originally installed. My suggestion, go back and look at the options you used when installing Access and see if there is something else you could install with Access that you missed on the re-install

Thank you for reply
but what do you think ? I mean what are the missed files that I haven't installed
for info : I installed all files

waiting you Sir

 

[GolferGuy]

I have no idea what files you missed. But if you installed all files as stated, then there is something different about how Windows is now installed, or there was some additional software previously installed that is no longer installed after re-installing windows. I have no way of knowing what your computer had before you have done this reinstall, so I have no way of knowing what you need that you don't have. Sorry, but you need to do some research as to what was on your computer before compared to what you have there now, if this problem is caused by missing some software. I believe that is what it is, but again, I don't know, I'm just suggesting.

I noticed you have some of your code in the Startup Form's OnActivate event.

Just so you know....if a Form has the Popup property set to Yes (which is rather typical for Splash Forms), then the OnActivate Event will not fire. If this is the case then it's better to have the code in the OnOpen event

Just curious I guess

Thank you very much for your help Sir CyberLynx

I've made as you ordered me for the welcome screen to set the POP UP to NO and it's now working very well ... I'm full appreciated Sir

but for the startup screen the flash movie still bigger than normal, that makes me so upset because it's hiding the sentences beside it and hasn't good looking

Please Sir I need your help

There must be a property for the Flash control that is not set properly.
Check the Scale or ScaleMode property. If the Scale property is to to NoScale (3) then perhaps your particular control is auto expanding to accommodate the clip or true frame size.

Your Flash control should not expand beyond your set dimensions made during design time unless your particular version of Flash control contains a Auto-Expand or Auto-Size feature.

You may need to force the control's Width an Height properties with code during runtime.

Sir I did what you said but no changes

 

[CyberLynx]

I'm afraid that at this point I can no longer assist you with this problem without actually having the Database here to work on. I am only guessing from this point on.
