    Access 2007 - Why doesn't the VBA work?

    I am try to build some code in Access 2007, but can't figure it out. I am not a beginner, but I can't get just a simple code like this: msgbox "testing" to work when I add an event procedure. Even when I mark the line to debug it it doesn't go through the event. It does nothing. Is there...

Well I am trying to drag the window with the mouse by clicking anywhere on it; eventually I'll put a caption bar on it, but for now I am just dragging from clicking on the window.

    How do I add controls to dialogs?

    How can I add a Status bar and a Toolbar into my window? I have looked at www.winprog.net/tutorial/app_three.html, but it doesn't make any sense.

    How do I add controls to dialogs?

    Well I just wanted to learn how to do it for my own knowledge. Luckily I did figure it out. I am just having problems right now with checkboxes and radio buttons. I don't know how to make the label for them. Other than that the code for the controls is quite easy.

    How do I add controls to dialogs?

    I have visual studio and know how to add controls that way, but would like to learn how to add controls using another compiler that is not visual based. The other compiler I have is bloodshed devC++. I have managed to add a button but that's it. I am looking for tutorials mainly, but anything...

    "The setting for this property is too long" Listbox

    access is telling me that the rowsource of a listbox only accepts 2048 char max. Now I know this can't be true because I put a column from a table with more than 2048 char in the listbox, and it worked fine. I am setting this through a string. I can set the same string to a text box, but not the...
