Hi there,
I used to use FoxPro2 (DOS) long long time ago (over 10 years ago) and find it a lot better than dBase 4 at the time. My preference was and still like the product a lot. I became an Access developer not by choice but by circumstance. You see, a lot of companies have Access in their...
Personally, I really like coding with VB6 because the door is wide open to ActiveX connections. Will it be worth my efforts to continue upgrading my skills with this coding idiom.
Hi,
There is a discussion in the Access Reports forum on how to attach an ADO recordset to the Me.RecordSource property. So far attaching an ADO recordset to the RecordSource property doesn't seem possible in a regular report, it may be possible in ADP. This is because the Me.RecordSource...

Hi,
I code a lot of Access queries manually, and sometimes the string can get pretty long, such as:
TRANSFORM Sum([tbl90707].[Amount]) AS Amount

Hi,

Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Me.RecordSource = "QryString"
End Sub
In VB6 and VB.NET, Crystal Reports etc, we can initiate an ADO object, fill the ADO recordset with records and...

SELECT Table1.Field1
from Table1 INNER JOIN (select Table2.Field1 from Table2) ON Table1.Field1 =(select Table2.Field1 from...
Hi there,
I used to be able to use function like this in my queries:
Cstr(), Clng() etc.
Then suddenly Access tells me compile error where time I run a query with these function(s) on.
Is there something in the options I can set to restore this?
Thanks.
Hi, I was wondering how some of you can paste the codes you wrote in a white window which got imbedded in the body of the messages. How do you do that? Thanks.

From Table INNER JOIN TheOtherTable
GROUP BY Table.field1, Table.field2
PIVOT ([Period] & [Year])
This query will return 2 columns with the names:
92004 (meaning...
By that I mean:
First, I believe that SQL is a universal language, although different vendors can adapt the language and make some minor adjustments to it to better suite a particular development platform, i.e., Access, SQL server etc.
When I code a query in Access, I may use Access SQL, as...
