Hi Tony, Our little problem caused some exitement with the VB enthusiasts. I will watch to see the solution as it evolves. However, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your help as it provided the solution I was searching for perfectly. All the best. Penny.

Gerry, Thank you for your post and my apologies as I was not clear. I am referring to the display of styles within a series of newly issued corporate templates. Within MS Office 2003, Windword. From the Format Menu, you can select the option 'Styles and Formatting'which will on the right hand...

Does anybody out there know how to default all new templates to read "Available Styles" on all PC's over a Local Area Network!

I have a problem in that I need to maintain seurity of all the databases we have on the server. I am aware of the inherant dangers of Workgroups but have never used them. I have been advised by a member of staff that these can be converted to Access 2003. Is this true? However, after looking at...

Yes. This has been set.

No. I don't want auto arrange switched on. I want to be able to arrange the icons from the F5 key or Refresh the screen from the view menu. Auto arrange will line them up at the top of the screen which isn't what is required.

I have recently had Windows XP installed. Within a display of scattered icons resulting from copying and pasting from various windows, I could press the F5 key in Windows 2000 to refresh and arrange the icons or select Refresh from the View menu. Both of these methods were shortcuts to the long...

Thankyou bcastner. Unfortunately, I tried this but it did not work. However, on Windows XP the Update screen is set to Hex and as such only allowed single character of 0 and 1. Thus, I changed the 1 to 0 and re-booted. No change to icons when refreshing or executing the F5 key. Any other...

I have a similar problem. I have Windows XP Professional. F5/Refresh and View/Refresh does not work and icons are left all over the place. It is extremely nausious to have to go to the View menu and arrange icons by name, date, etc. Anybody have any ideas? Much appreciated. Penelope

HYMN, Thankyou for your help. That worked perfectly. Here's my own vote "**********" My appreciation once again. Penelope

Thanks Hymn, I tried that but it generated the date/time in the next new record which isn't quite what I'm after. I want the date/time to be generated only after the 'Clearedby' combo has been populated. Any further suggestions greatly appreciated. Regards Penelope

Thanks PHV, getting closer but not quite there yet. I have three fields: [ClearedBy] A combo with a list of names [ClearedDate] Set to date/time with input mask [ClearedTime] Set to date/time with input mask When the user exits from [ClearedBy] I would like the [ClearedDate] and [ClearedTime]...

Not much help I'm afraid; can you elaborate on Now (). Need the specific code I'm afraid. Penelope

I have a small database which records faults. When the fault is closed the technician selects their name from a combo box displayed on a form. On completion of this action how can I then generate an automatic time and date in the next two subsequent fields. Any help appreciated. Penelope
