    Visual Basic - Compass Gauge... how can I?

    Hey strongm, Awesome. I tries it out and it works. And I understand it enough that I should be able to modify it for my purposes. You've been a great help! Thanks Varga

    Visual Basic - Compass Gauge... how can I?

    Hey strongm, I'm trying all that stuff, but so frustrated I'm ready to give up. I finally got the e.Graphics.Drawing stuff to draw something. (Thanks to http://www.bobpowell.net/transformations.htm) ...but I couldn't get anything more than a circle and square, and need to rotate an image. (So...

    Visual Basic - Compass Gauge... how can I?

    Hey strongm, Sorry I forgot I upgraded to, and am now using, Visual Basic 2008 Express. That's the main reason why the SetWorldTransform wouldn't work as certain commands were not recognized... My method works, crude as it is, but would the SetWorldTransform be better/faster/more efficient...

    Visual Basic - Compass Gauge... how can I?

    Hey, Thanks for the help strongm. I messed around with some of those methods, but the redraw "raster" was slow and low quality, and I couldn't get the transformworld one to work. The solution I cam up with was to use a compass face image, and save 18 versions of the gif at 5degree rotation...

    Visual Basic - Compass Gauge... how can I?

    Hello, I'm trying to make a VB form that has a compass display on it. I want to display the reading from a digital compass sensor on a form and I am using Visual Basic 6.0. I can't find any built-in compass gauges, except for expensive downloads in Aviation packs, and wondered how I could do...

    I Exit Access2K, MSACCESS.EXE keeps reading SYSTEM.MDW every 5 seconds

    Hi, I'm having problems with Access 2000 on an XP Pro computer. The MSACCESS.EXE process hangs-up, when I exit Access. (I’ve looked everywhere for an answer. The standard answer is that some recordset in my VB code is not closed or the ‘Set RecSet = Nothing’ is missing. This is not the...

    *.ldb File

    Hap007, I urge you to re-read this thread. I've looked all over the net, and that's the standard response, "Close your recordsets". To test my problem I created a new DB with ONLY a table. (No VB, no recordsets, no outside references, nothing but a table with two records. Read above, I've been...

    *.ldb File

    sabloomer, Is it saying "Unrecognized Format" when you try to open the database? Can you open the DB at all? You could try importing all your objects into a new database, if it will let you import from a "unrecognized format" DB? To start fresh. Then try that code to see who's logged on in...

    *.ldb File

    sabloomer, RE: Seeing who is logged onto your database. The *.ldb file will show disconnected users until every user logs out and the file disappears, as stated above. (It's supposed to disappear. :-( ) I followed a link above, in this thread, and I found another usefull page...

    *.ldb File

    jrbarnett, I should have mentioned that I'm using Access 2000 on WinXP Pro. I think I created most of it in Access 97 then converted it to Access 2000 more than a year ago. The link you refered to is only for Access97 and wont work on a XP machine. I tried an attached link (in the page you...

    *.ldb File

    jrbarnett, I started reading the page you referenced. That might help. I'll have to check it out. Seeing what is locked and why, should point me to the problem. One thing, on the page it says "Applies to: Microsoft Access 97 Standard Edition". I'm running Acess 2000, will it work on 2000...

    *.ldb File

    I'm having a similar problem that I can't find any answers for. Sabloomer, When you close the database, is the 'Msaccess.exe' process still running? (Use "Ctrl+Shift+Esc" to look in the task manager.) When I close Access my ".ldb" file locks and the process keeps running. As a test I...

    XP Desktop Manager Powertoy (Excel/Access) Problem

    Hi, I'm using Windows XP and I just started using the "Desktop Manager" powertoy toolbar function. The one Microsoft recommends (and publishes) but does not support. (I can't find out who supports it.) If I have the ‘Shared Desktops’ setting turned on, then this problem does not occur. I only...

    Search every table for a value?

    Well, I figured out a MUCH easier way to do this. I'm using the (For Each 'Table' In CurrentDb.Tabledefs ... Next) method to cycle through one table at time. I then use (If...Then) statements to select or exclude certain tables. Then for each one of the selected tables I use the 'T.Name'...

    Creating an Error Log?

    When an error occurs, I want Access (2000) to do a screen print (i.e. 'Ctrl' + 'Print Scrn') and e-mail it to me. I would prefer that Access open a powerpoint presentation then paste the screen print into it, and e-mail me the powerpoint document, so that the e-mail is smaller than the screen...
