    Report within a Report???

    I have the pleasure of following another developer who cannot be contacted and who left no documentation. Access 2003, fairly simple tables layout. He consistenly has managed to place a "report within a report" in numerous reports. The application is invoicing; the "imbedded" report shows in...

    Application Help for End Users - Access Applications

    Hello all, I've searched Tek-tips and found no likely posts. What do most developers do in your MS/Access applications to provide HELP to the users who need it "inline"? I wrote MS/Word based User Guides in my last Access application project and it seems the users would never open...

    Optimizing Query Performance

    Hello friends, I have read somewhere, but cannot remember where, that there is a technique to optimize query performance; that Access (Access 2000 for me) does not necessarily optimize a query as it is written, and specifically if it is modified, unless one does some particular system function...

    Hello friends, I am experiencing a problem with issuing the DoCmd Applyfilter in the code behind my Access 2000 report. It appends the filter in my apply filter statement to the last filter issued in the report's filter property. You can imagine the nonsense results I get, since sometimes I...
