    Linking Microsoft Project and Microsoft Access through VBA

    Hello, I have a project coming up in which they want me to be able to pull table data from Microsoft Access into Microsoft Project and most likely, vice versa. I've been trying to find a straight forward resource on the web about the subject, but have just come up with more questions. Does...

    Hello, Like a lot of people here, I need to have my Access 2000 reports exported to another file format for emailing. However, all the nice formatting is gone from the .rtf file that gets created. I've been reading in certain forums here that it's possible to export reports to Adobe Acrobat...

    Batch File question

    I figured this'd be the most appropriate place to ask this: Is there a way I can run a program from a batch file and not have the batch file hang until the program it called has finished executing? I just want that batch window to go away as soon as possible and it never does until the program...

    How to prevent DB object from being imported to another DB

    I was recently reading foolio12's security FAQ (faq181-3893) and I am quite satisfied with the level of security that my DB has, except for one thing. You can open a new DB and just import all my tables and queries and since my tables are linked, whomever would do this could alter/delete...
