    Re-Attach Label to List Box

    I have a List Box on a form. The label box that was associated to this List Box was deleted. How do I re-attach a label box to the list box? Thanks

    Physical HD Problem, or problem with MBR?

    Stuke - Is there a way to run CHKDSK another way that might fix whatever problem there is? How can I remove remnants of Acronis from the MBR?

    Physical HD Problem, or problem with MBR?

    Thanks, stuke. All I have is the restore CD. The PC (Laptop) is still under warranty, but they may have it for WEEKS. I was going to just take it in, but wanted to first ensure the problem was a physical one, and not one with software that I could fix myself. Can't remove HD from PC...

    Physical HD Problem, or problem with MBR?

    NSNewey, Believe it or not, that key does not exist, which I believe is not good. Thanks for trying! :-)

    Problems automating PDF reports with Acrobat 6.0/7.0

    Continuing with the above post, the name of my Adobe printer is "Adobe PDFWtiter" (Start>Settings>Priters). And here are the keys in my registry withing the "Software\Adobe" tree: Acrobat Acrobat Distiller Acrobat Elements Acrobat Reader Adobe Acrobat ALM Designer I guess another option is...

    Problems automating PDF reports with Acrobat 6.0/7.0

    I think I may have found the problem. The above "SetKeyValue" lines call another function containing the following: lRetVal = RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, sKeyName, 0, KEY_SET_VALUE, hKey) lRetVal = SetValueEx(hKey, sValueName, lValueType, vValueSetting) The value for "sKeyName" is...

    Problems automating PDF reports with Acrobat 6.0/7.0

    Nice try NSNewey. However, after adding that line it failed to send the report to the PDF writer. Here is the new code with that line added. strOldDefault = QueryKey("Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows", "Device") SetKeyValue "Software\Microsoft\Windows...

    Trendline Equation

    In Excel one has the ability to produce a trendline on a chart that represents the relationship of x to y. It also gives one the option of displaying a formula representing that relationship. My question: Is there a way using built-in Access functions to replicate this relationship formula...

    Database Size and Updating Queries

    When editing fields in a (VERY large) table, why does the database size grow so dramatically (more than the size attibuted to the data being added to the table)? During the process of running through the code (updating data in the fields), the database size hits the 2GB limit and error...

    Table Size Limit

    It's not a constant update. It's a one-time deal. However, I was able to get it to work by separating the table into one database, and the code (module) into another, and linking to the database containing the table. When doing so, the database size of both databases stayed relatively...

    Table Size Limit

    I have written a module that updates two fields in every record in a table that is over 3M records. As I crank through the code (and editing the table), I continue to get an error message at the 'rs1.update' line as the database size grows. I believe it has to do with table size. Any ideas...
