I had a massive computer crash, don't know what caused it. System kept telling me my Microsoft Office products were not installed, but other programs worked. Anyways, I reinstalled Me and Office 2000. I can now open the programs and documents that were created in them, but have another...

Wow. Thanks everyone. You gave me great info, and it works!

Well, I've scrolled through what others have said about this, and haven't been able to decipher what I need to know. I want to change the background color of table cells (in a navigation bar) as they are hovered over. I am familiar with HTML and CSS, but not Javascript. How do I do this...

Thanks all. You see, I'm new to this and one of the lessons in my book was adding a database. So, for a final project, I created the database, and then tried to add it to the app. To my surprise the two were not compatible. I have since converted the database to .dbf. But, it doesn't work...

I'm new to programming... I am trying to connect a MS Access 2000 database to an app in VB 6.0. I get a message telling me that it can't read the format or something like that??? What am I not doing right? I've connected other mdb's, but they are previous versions of Access. Can I download...

Hi, I am fairly new to VB, for a class project, I would like to make a survey program (employee opionion survey) in which the user (a human resoures person) could make their own survey by picking from a list of categories & questions that I offer, and in which the user would be able to update...

I work for a small company who needs a web site, not an award winning site, more like a web presence. We're in a crunch, and don't have a lot of money. Could you tell me why I should or shouldn't use FrontPage to create the site? It seems to be able to do everything we would need, such as a...

Thank you sooo much Craftor & BK. My program now works perfectly.

I don't understand this whole public variable thing. (New to programming and the VB book isn't clear). If I create 4 forms, and I want one piece of info from each of those forms (a different piece of data from each) to appear in a 5th form, would I use a global variable? For instance...form1...

To begin with, I'm new to programming... I need to add a timer to a project of mine that would continuously count from 1 to 3, and then repeat again, so that on the 2 count, I could have a particular procedure execute each time. Would I use a timer control with a text box (so I can see the...

I am creating the "Memory Matching Game"... I show a bunch of pictures and then take them away and see if you can remember where they are...I want the user to be able to click over where the picture once was, and for it to become visible again. My Mouse Click procedure won't work...

I also tried the code and it deleted everything in the field???? Possibly, I did something wrong, I'm not familiar with SQL.

I have a table in which there is a field for employee names. I want the names to be in all caps, as opposed to how they were entered. Its too late for an input mask, as the names are already entered. I want an update query to re-format the field in all caps. I tried this...

New to VB: Is it possible to change the format of the text displayed in a Message Box?

Nice try, but, unfortunately, it didn't work. What that query did was take the first two numbers in a field, add them to the end of the field and place a decimal point before them (e.g. 12345678 became 345678.12) If you have any other ideas, throw them my way. I have a query that does the job...
