When editing fields in a (VERY large) table, why does the database size grow so dramatically (more than the size attibuted to the data being added to the table)?
During the process of running through the code (updating data in the fields), the database size hits the 2GB limit and error...
I have written a module that updates two fields in every record in a table that is over 3M records. As I crank through the code (and editing the table), I continue to get an error message at the 'rs1.update' line as the database size grows. I believe it has to do with table size. Any ideas...
I've got a Public Function inside a module that is triggered by an autoexec macro. For some reason, the execution of the code stops at the same line of code every time the application is opened, even though there is no breakpoint set there. When I press the StepOut button, execution continues...
When I go to unzip a compressed file, there is apparently an unzippin application that comes with XP home. Does anyone know where this app is (?.exe). I was trying to determine if there was a way to call this app from inside a batch file (using DOS commands).
For some reason, the following folder (C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents) shows, in windows explorer, to have no contents. However, when I display the properties for this folder, it shows to contain one file (62 bytes). For some reason, this file will not display in Windows Explorer...

What is the best way to move the focus to the control that had the focus last, using VBA. In other words, if the focus is moved from a control to another control, how do you tell Access to remember what control had focus previously so you can move back to it?

I have a PC running XP Home, and when I first setup the PC the workgroup name was called WORKGROUP (I believe that was there by default). I have now changed it to match the workgroup of the other 2 PC's in the home network. Is it possible to delete the workgroup name WORKGROUP?
