    Conditional formatting on Yes/No fields

    I have a mystery: I have a form with two sub-forms. Both sub-forms have a Yes/No field denoting whether an item has been marked as completed. On one subform the conditional formatting works: Field: txtToDo Expression is [ToDoComplete]=-1 results in the conditional formatting being applied...

    Subform triggers error: "This expression is typed incorrectly..."

    I figured out the problem, though I don't understand it. I had changed the main control of the form to an unbound combo box: cmbBudgetID. The child form fsubBudgetDetails01 used the cmbBudgetID as the Master Field and it worked fine. However, when I referenced the Category ID from the child...

    Subform triggers error: "This expression is typed incorrectly..."

    Hi, Duane, I set the event procedure for On Current to: 'Set the value of cmbBudgetID unbound combo box Me.cmbBudgetID.Value = 1 That works but whenever I open the form I still get the "This expression is typed incorrectly..." error. Even more odd, this form had been working...

    Subform triggers error: "This expression is typed incorrectly..."

    Thank you, Andy. I had tried that but the query doesn't return zero results even though I know there are three records containing a carriage return.

    Finding carriage returns in a query

    I have imported non-normalized data from Excel into Access. Some fields have carriage return at the beginning of the text string. How can I write a query to isolate them? My research indicates that carriage returns are represented in Access as Chr(13) & Chr(10), but when I put that into a query...

    I have a hyperlink on a form that is producing the following error when clicked on: "Unable to open https://site.... Cannot download the information you requested." This seems to have occur after I edit the display text for the hyperlink, even though the URL address is valid and works if I...

    Bound Object Frame Blank

    I was using the wrong type of form object. When I add an image frame, it works as expected. I just mis-remembered which type of form object to use. Problem solved.

    Bound Object Frame Blank

    I have been attempting to use a technique I've used before to pull an image into a form in Access 2016. I populate the Control Source of the OLE Bound frame using a DLookup function: =DLookUp("PicPath","tlkpCountries","CountryID =" & [txtCountryID]) This function pulls in the correct path from...

    Concatenate Function

    A loooong time ago, someone provided a great concatenate function here on the forum. I'm hoping someone can point me to it. The function would take a field in a record set and concatenate them, separating the record values with a comma. For example, if the table contained: Yellow Orange Red...
