    I asked previously on this forum for help with the following: 'Runtime Error 2046 - SendObject isn't available now' (context: this works fine on my laptop with Access 97 and Outlook Express but not on my colleague's identical laptop with same version of Access, Outlook Express and an identical...

    Error 2046: 'SendObject isn't available now'

    The above error message is generated when my colleague clicks a button that runs a procedure that includes the SendObject command to send an email. An identical copy of the same database works fine on my computer - SendObject creates an email ready to send. (When I say identical copy, the front...

    Default printer problem - enormous font!

    Several reports which have previously printed without problem are suddenly coming out very large, as if the scaling or font had suddenly been set to 400% of its previous value. The problem seems to occur when I print a report using the Toolbar 'Print' button, as opposed to File/Print on the...

It works fine on two different computers that store their data on different drives (one has drive C:, the other has drive Z:, with folder\datafile names the same in both cases). However, I...

    How to share a database between laptop and desktop

    I have connected my laptop to my desktop using a simple network card and an RJ45 crossover cable (and a couple of hours tinkering with the configuration in Network Neighbourhood). I can now open, from my desktop, my database 'front-end' which resides on the laptop, but the database with tables...

    Can I use Access 97 (or 2000) to view Outlook Express data?

    I want to be able to check the addresses and sent-dates of emails against records in my database, in order to simplify my record-keeping. No need to access the content of the email itself. Is there any way of doing this? - Richard

    Can Access remember the current printer?

    If I select a different printer when using, say MS Word, this will be remembered until the end of the Word session. In Access, I keep having to change from the default printer every time I access a report, even the report I may have just printed a minute ago. I have looked at the...

    How to output Check Boxes in a Rich Text Format report

    When I output a report as an rtf attached to an email, my check boxes (linked to YesNo fields) disappear. Is there any way of getting them to appear, or using some other way of outputting? (I do not want rows of -1's, or even 1's if I can help it!) - Richard

    Recordset not Updatable - Sometimes!

    I have designed a database currently used by myself and two colleagues. We all have our own sets of data, which is exported from a main database to which we only have access when 'in the office'. The code/queries which import and check the data compares certain information from the 'main' and...

    Access keys in Subform not working properly

    In a subform I have assigned various Alt-Key combinations to move the focus quickly to certain textbox controls on a Tab Control to which I keep needing to refer to. When the sub-form is loaded by itself these access keys work fine - they move the focus to the textbox AND reposition the form in...

    AutoNumber fields to Number when exporting to another Database (v97)

    I have a maketable query that exports data to another database. It currently preserves the AutoNumber field form the orginal table. I don't want to do this - I want the field in the destination table to be an ordinary Number field, since only the source database is responsible for generating the...
