    Prompt user for folder or path

    Thank you all very much! Yes it was for Word and PHV's code worked great (I'll try yours as well in a minute combo). Thanks again!

    Prompt user for folder or path

    With help from this forum, I’ve written a macro which will create separate documents for each record in a mail merge. I’ve specified the folder where to place the files (ChangeFileOpenDirectory "C:\mail_merged_files_folder\"), but I’d rather a window open up that asks the user to specify a...

    Selecting Null in a cfselect

    Hey Lyndon, I ended up dropping the cfselect as you suggested and hard coding the options seeing as each of the dropdowns only had 3 options. I've never heard of "QueryAddRow" and "QuerySetCell" before - I plan on trying to implement this afterwards (just in case my next project needs several...

    Selecting Null in a cfselect

    Thanks for answering so quickly ECAR! Currently, my query does not return any nulls - that's kinda the problem. Say the subtypes are: red, blue and green When the form opens to a specific record, "red" appears in the select box because no subtype had been assigned to this record. Thanks...

    Selecting Null in a cfselect

    Hello, I have a dropdown list that lets the user select a subtype from a couple of different options (list is generated from a query). The problem is that sometimes there is no subtype, but I can't seem to get a "null" in there so it always defaults to the first option. Any help would be...

    Ugh - found a solution I think (just reading it now) http://cfchart.blogspot.com/2005/06/charting-technote-addendum.html

    Long x-axis label - cfchart

    Hello, I'm in the process of creating some charts and am having a problem with the x-axis labels that my boss wants me to put in. The problem is that it won't break anywhere and places it vertically which takes up most of the space. i.e. "My really long x-axis label" would be better if it...

    Stacked bar chart - cfchart

    Found my own answer :) In the cfchart tag: seriesPlacement = "stacked" It can also be set to default, cluster or percent.

    Stacked bar chart - cfchart

    Hello, I have been able to create a certain type of chart in Excel and was wondering if the same could be done in ColdFusion...? This chart illustrates what I'd like to achieve by stacking different colors to create one bar: http://www.visualmining.com/graphs/bars/bargroupstackbasicBIG.png...

    Files on second harddrive after reinstall

    Hello everyone, Short version: If I remove Windows XP Pro and then install Windows XP Home, will the files on my second harddrive still be accessible? Long story: I currently have full retail versions of both Windows XP Home and Windows XP Pro. My old PC is running Pro and has 2 harddrives...

    FAQ Request - Batch processing

    Just found the answer to my own question - we have the "Standard" version whereas it looks like you need to have the "Professional" one. >:-(

    FAQ Request - Batch processing

    Hi everyone, I'm using version 6, and have about 20 documents that I need to add a page to (the same page to all 20 documents). I know how to do this one at a time, but I was curious if there was a way to do it automatically in one step or not? I tried looking up "Batch processing", but it...

    Windows Messenger - need to see my password

    Thanks Captain, I did start on that path, and one of their suggestions was to check your passport to see if maybe you had told your pc to automatically save it. I hadn't for that, but did for messenger but it still doesn't seem to help. I'll post the solution if I have any luck!

    Windows Messenger - need to see my password

    Hi Everyone, I have completely forgotten my hotmail account info and would like to get it back. My one glimmer of hope is that I used this account for Windows Messenger and I'm automatically signed in when I open the program. Are there any features in Windows Messenger that let you see what...

    Track down the bad lock

    Well, to add further confusion to the mix, it turns out that there was also something wrong with the server (I'd upload the page but it wouldn't overwrite the existing one - hence my post above about not noticing any difference and the code not running - turns out the previous version where I...

    Track down the bad lock

    Just found out that it does use an SQL Server Database - but it did at one time use Access (for those enquiring minds out there) :) GUJUm0deL - that is nice of you to offer but unfortunately I don't have access to the tag in question (it's like I'm going to take credit for it if I get my hands...

    Track down the bad lock

    Hi again everyone, The cftry/cfcatch does make sense and is an excellent idea but I have one small problem - one of the errors seems to stem from a custom tag that I must use and I cannot edit. (I have edited out this code for the past week and everything has been running smoothly since - but I...

    Track down the bad lock

    Hi Jalpino and please excuse my late reply! We had a very busy couple of weeks and to resolve the issue I was forced to remove lots of code so that the error wouldn't occur. The error I would get was this: Error Diagnostic Information Timed out while waiting to obtain exclusive access The...
