    Adding Notes into PowerPoint Using VBA

    Hello, My request is a simple one (I hope :)) I want to know how to add notes to a slide. I know how to add the slide, and format the title, etc. Once I've done that, I want to put some standard text into the notes. I figured that as the notes are slide specific, adding notes would be a method...

    ORDER BY in SQL Statement prevents updating recordset?!

    Hello, I hope someone can help me, as I'm confused, and I think there may be too many variables that could be affecting this issue to truly discern what is going wrong. I'm using Access 2000 (with ADO 2.1) as a front end to an MSDE back end. I'm writing some code to calculate quintiles, and...

    Copy Table Using ADOX in Access 2K

    Hello, hope I've picked the right forum here! I need to make an exact copy of a table, and rename it something similar, just without any of the data. I'm using Access 2K here. I am basically trying to automate the process where-by a user manually selects a table, copies it, and then clicks on...

    Filemaker5.0 compatability with Windows Me

    I have been given a copy of a FileMaker 5.0 database, which was developed on a Mac, and then converted (At least I assume it has to be converted??) to run on a Windows Millennium machine. I currently get error messages when updating certain fields, saying that the fields are read only...

    Problem using Now() with DateAdd Function?

    This question concerns using Access 97, with linked tables from SQL Server 7. The key fields are as follows: AssignDate = Date\Time ActionDateDue = Date\Time I have a query (unfortunately not written by me...) which doesn't seem to work, in its normal form below: SELECT Call.Call_Num...

    Pass Access 97 Parameters when opening from command line

    I hope someone can help me!! I am trying to get a an Access 97 database to run a form as soon as it opens - I don't think I'll have any problems with that, but what I'd like to do is pass it some parameters when the form is opened. The module that the form will call requires a file name parsed...

    My Tabs vanish from the top of my tab control

    I've got a 2 page tab control in an Access97 form, and all the controls are unbound, which I have created today. Earlier, I could see those tabs when I went to view the form, but now (and I'm not sure what knock-on effect has happenned here) no matter how far down the detail of the form I move...

    Running batch file from VBA Code

    I'm sure this is a pretty straight forward thing to do - or at least I hope it is. I would like to run a batch file (.bat) from within a module in Access 97 on Win2k. Ideally it would be something along the lines of: 1) User clicks button 2) Code decides which batch file to call (or even better...

    Finding out the date a file was last created, or modified

    I need to run through a load of directories, and end up with a list of files that have not been used for the past 3 months. The files do have a date within the title, but as all the file names have been entered manually, they vary: [code]title-dd - mm - yy title-dd-mm-yy title-dd-mm-yy title dd...

    Setting a report's data source to be an ADO Recordset

    I have recently converted an Access 97 front end, which has tables that are linked into an Access 97 back end, to be a 'free standing' database, where I use an ADO connection to obtain all my data. The idea behind this is that we will be moving onto SQL Server 7 back end pretty soon, and I...

    Project or Library Missing Error Message

    Some folks in my office have just had new PCs, which are running windows 2000, with Access 97 professional installed (that is what the rest of the office are using). When they open the database up, one of the first calls is format(dteDate, "DD-MMM-YY") VBA highlights format and comes...

    Running perl scripts from within perl scripts

    I wanted to create a 'main menu' perl script that would pick up all the perl scripts in my scripts directory, and display them for me to choose. Then I would select a number, which would correspond to an element in an array. The array holds the name of all the .pl files in the directory. The...
