    Fields collection

    I'm using code to create a crosstab table for me, this is for scheduling multiple crafts by date, tally the time and post it in a form. Problem is not all crafts are schedule each day, so any craft not scheduled will not create a field in the crosstab. What's the best way to determine if a...

    Copying a record

    I have a dump from a system that I'll need to break apart into around 50 individual tables. I'll need to do this a few times a year so I wanted to automate the process. I'm down to the final part of the program and I'm having a brain poof. I want to copy a whole record out of one table and...

    Attributes

    Hi all, I've been tossed into a well fire with a water hose to put it out. Seems I've been placed in the I/E design group to clean things ups. The guy before me kept multiple copies of drawing in tons of locations and I have to straighten it out. I've use ACad since the early 90's and Access...

    Deleting a record, very slow.

    I have a db with multiple users and multiple tables. One particular table is a bill of material. In the BOM table there is a BOM number, BOM item number and a part number. When the user needs to delete a part from the BOM, I run a simple query in code that seems to work but is at times extremely...

    Sharing a record source

    I have a form that allows the users to make multiple selections and type in variables that allow them to do a search. When they click the search button, I build an sql string and use it as the recordsource of a form that opens with their results. On rare occasions the user would like to print...

    Rights for Access forms

    I knew this was coming but I avoided it until now. I have an Access db that started very small and has grown very large. There is a small group of us entering and editing the data, so it is easy to control. Now there are about twenty more people that want access to the data, read only rights...

    Finding a control on a form

    I have a db that has been modified over and over again. What I have is a form for entering new data, the controls are all unbound. When the data input is finally completed, the user will click a button and the data checked before adding to the table. The table has far more fields than is...

    Backing Up Tables

    I learned some thing new today, if you make a copy of a linked table, it is still a link. And in the process I wiped out some good info. IT people are restoring yesterdays back up, but I want to build something that will automatically back up tables for me. I have a db that is split into three...

    I have two tables, both are identicle field names and records. The first table is a base that never changes, the second is where the editing the records takes place. On a form where the people edit the second table, I would like to change the background color of any field that does not match...

    Getting the Current Default Printer

    OK, pulling my hair out here. I have a db with a field that contains a 9 digit number that I want to send in bar code to a special printer on LPT1. I have everything I need, fonts, conversions etc.etc.. I cannot seem to find a way in Access VB to send this to LPT1. Is there a special library I...
