Hi, We have an old computer (~1989) that is used to control an automatic test station. The hard drive crashed and we are trying to restore everything from a backup on magnetic tapes. The tapes are approximately 3 1/4" x 2 3/8" in size. The tape backup drive in the computer is labeled 250MB...

Thank you, xwb. That was the problem. dz

I solved my problem but still don't understand it. stimByte[n][1] has a value of FFFFFFFB instead of 000000FB. When it is added to 00001300, the result is 12FB. I don't understand why the compiler represents FB as FFFFFFFB, but I masked the upper bits with 000000FF. I'll keep researching...

Need to correct a typo. val[0] += stimByte[0][1] = 12FB dz

I have an array that contains a char that represents a hex number. The array might look like the following: stimByte[0][0] = "13" stimByte[0][1] = "FB" stimByte[1][0] = "FC" stimByte[1][1] = "53" The hex data is: 0x13FB 0xFC53 I need to convert the char array to hex data. I tried the...

Hi, I wrote two DLLs. One is called by a single application and the other is called by multiple DLLs. For simplicity, here's how they are named. prg.exe - Application a.dll - DLL that I wrote, called by prg.exe b.dll - DLL that I wrote, called by prg.exe and a.dll b.dll contains five cpp...

Thank you so much, Remou. That did the job. I made the Border Style Dialog and deleted the code that hid the controls. That code wasn't needed because the user can't get to the controls when the window is resized. I have to wonder what Form.Width does - it seems like it should have worked as...

My form has controls on the left and right side. When a specific option button is selected, the controls on the right side are hidden and I want to resize the window to eliminate the empty space. I tried Form.WindowWidth and Form.Width but neither work. The former returns an error ...can't...

Hey, Remou...thanks for the alternate control. I saved it for future use, but it doesn't suit my needs for the form that I'm working on. The form is too small compared to the size of the control that pops up. I narrowed the problem down to when the Date Picker is enabled. That's when it...

Hi, You will have to write Visual Basic code to do this. I don't see any way around it. The formulas that you spoke of would have to be included in the program. If you don't have any programming experience at all, you might want to take a continuing education course or buy a book and learn...

Hi, My form has a Microsoft Date and Time Picker control on it. The control is initially disabled and is enabled when a specific option button is selected. As soon as the option button is selected that enables the Date Picker, the date appears in the upper left corner of the form instead of...

Thank you, Remou. It worked. Dim itm As Control Dim frm As Form DoCmd.OpenForm "frm_selectPins", acDesign Set frm = Forms!frm_selectPins For Each itm In frm.Controls If itm.ControlType = acOptionButton Then oldName = itm.Name newName = Left(oldName, 2) & "p" &...

I want to rename the control. The label is hidden and not used. This is a one time change because I decided to rename a bunch of controls on the form to something more descriptive, and I don't want to do each one manually unless that's the only way. I want to change the third character in...

Hi, Is there a way to change the name of a Control in a VBA program? I have the following: Dim itm As Control Dim oldName, newName as String For Each itm In Form.Controls If itm.ControlType = acOptionButton Then oldName = itm.Name newName = Left(oldName, 2) & "p" &...

I'm not really following either of your examples. Here's some of the code in my report form. The problem occurs with report3. I need to change the RecordSource depending on the value of a checkbox (chk_all). I pass the value of mode to the report and evaluate it in the Open event...then set...

Well, this is very strange...I typed in isDate and the context sensitive editor didn't pick it up...so I clicked help...got nothing. Now it works. I guess you did something to my computer from miles away! lol Thank you for answering my "dumb" question. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes I...

Is there a function that returns True if a variable evaluates to a valid Date and False if it isn't a date? I remember using such a function before but can't find it in the Help. Thank you, dz

My form opens a report based on the selection in an option group. The user can select from one of many reports. Another option group on the form allows the user to direct the output to a screen preview, printer, or Excel. One of the reports requires two different RecordSources. The...

Thank you so much, Duane. It works perfectly! Best regards, dz

Hi! I want to create a report based on the following Query: SELECT tbl_LRU_Repair.LRU_Repair, tbl_LRU_parts_replaced.PartID, tbl_LRU.LRU_Name, tbl_SRU.Part_Name FROM tbl_SRU INNER JOIN (tbl_LRU INNER JOIN (tbl_LRU_Repair INNER JOIN tbl_LRU_parts_replaced ON tbl_LRU_Repair.JobID =...
