    Where is Solitaire?

    I thought MS included a few games in Accessories/Games but I guess I am mistaken. Not there on my XP installion. Looked on the install disc but didn't find it. This must be a dumb question but an hour of looking around was fruitless. TIA, John

    Need batch file to move shortcut from CD to Desktop

    I have a CD I distribute to users. I have a .BAT file (old fashioned perhaps) to make a folder on C:\ and copy *.* files to it from the CD. One last problem I have is another command line to send a shortcut from the CD to the desktop. This might be easier if MS didn't have user desktops but...

    Maximum number of records?

    What is the maximum number of records you can use in Access 2000 on a large XP system? Is it just limited by hard disk or is there a limit? TIA, John

    Problem adding NotePad to Form

    Weird problem. I have a more or less finished split database which is working well. I want to add a command button for the NotePad application which should be easy to do. But when I add it I get an "Invalid Data" warning and an error message when I try to use it. Also the other command...

    I want to copy my frontend and customize it

    I have a database developed for one user. I would like to copy this (front end), clean the data files and customize a bit for a new user. This sounds like it should be simple but I get blocked when I try to guess my way through it. And a search didn't find the exact subject. Shouldn't this be...

    Invalid Data Warnings, How to track down

    I have created a specialized database and it is about ready for primetime. However on the last modification where I added a new field to a table, I sometimes but not always get an "Invalid Data" popup when closing a report/ form or the whole program. It appears at random and I can't...

    Wierd editing problem; Form vs. Datasheet

    I have a wierd problem with a database I kind of inherited and have to deal with. Some items in the datasheet are composed of two lines of text where it seems like one is the normal. But anyway, some entries have two lines. I can edit either line by highlighting but cannot add a two liner on a...

    Where is my DB/Form choice on SubForm Design

    My new subform kept appearing as a form instead of the database view I wanted. I can change it on the Subform view but I wanted the default to be the database view. Accidently, in the design view, I right clicked on something which gave me a properties list which included setting this...

    Export of Access Structure Only

    I have searched the forum for info on my question but notice similar inquiries get no replies. My problem is I would like to export new structure changes to a remote user accessible only by floppy disks. And of course retaining their data changes. It seems the $700 MS Office XP Developer has...

    What does "Enter Parameter Value" mean?

    I made a name change from NAME to NAME3 in the applicable databases. When I open the main form now which includes NAME3 on a subform, I get the subject window box. If I click OK, everything looks OK. What have I done wrong and/or how do I get rid of the pop up?

    How to make report with special pagination

    The title is not too descriptive of what I need. And it seems like it should be easy. I am finishing up a gated community entry control program using Access 2002 and XP. I want to make a report that lists on one page per lot number, the automobile data at that particular lot number. I have a...

    How to move name/date/time to a log

    1. I have a form containing the field NAME. It is part of a gated community entry control program. 2. I want to double click (or hit a special command button)on NAME and have the NAME, LOT# and ARRIVED (date/time) entered into a record in a table called PERMGSTLOG which contains these three...
