    MouseMove co-ordinates make no sense at all

    >> Well, if we manage to sort out this London drink whilst you are on your course in October/November you'll be able to count exactly how many eyes/limbs I actually have ... For sure, looking forward to counting them! "In complete darkness we are all the same, it is only our knowledge and...

    MouseMove co-ordinates make no sense at all

    > You're going down the rabbit hole ... Help, somebody let me out!!!! Mike you are a mutant! [3eyes] , I have no idea how you know so much about this stuff, but you never cease to impress and amaze me. I think I'm happy to stick with my increased sized image object on a continuous form as...

    MouseMove co-ordinates make no sense at all

    how many twips are in a millimeter, I don't believe it's 200 Edit : It isn't, it's 56.xxx , which does make a little more sense, but not much more, as I can't understand how a screen displays things in pixels, 1 pixel is .75 of a printers point yet a twip is meant to be 1/20 (one twentieth) of...

    MouseMove co-ordinates make no sense at all

    Thanks Mike, So my analysis is right that the built in event for MouseOver provides bogus argument data. I've decided that the work involved isn't worth the feature, seeing a larger version of the image on hover is nice but not required and as the Mouse event either way can't provide me with...

    MouseMove co-ordinates make no sense at all

    Hi, I'm trying to change a parent image control when a button is hovered over in the sub form. I can achieve this but the screen flickers like mad. So to try to stop the mouse_even API firing continuously, I'm trying to trap the X/Y co-ordinates so I can see if the mouse has moved to a...

    select field content on trigger not working with chrome

    I would recommend you stop using event attributes and use the jquery 'on' method to bind event handlers via an external JS file. Also what does the error console show (F12), if anything? "In complete darkness we are all the same, it is only our knowledge and wisdom that separates us, don't...

    Code at close of form isn't working when user closes database

    Sorry for late reply, the answer is yes, update fires on unbound. The update event is not a DB update, but a form control, so even if they are unbound when they are changed(updated) the form update event fires. Bound/unbound is simply whether the data in a form control is directly linked to...

    passing package names as parameters to modules

    Your problem is scope. although you set the package var $Pack1::var1, as soon as the sub finishes it goes out of scope. You could either look at using Exporter to make global functions available in your package as a utility helper module or perhaps look at moose for OOP. However, you could...

    Management Studio & Localhost

    Thanks George, I didn't think the problems they were experiencing were LAN latency, and it turns out it wasn't. It was log file growth going out of hand. Regards, Craig. "In complete darkness we are all the same, it is only our knowledge and wisdom that separates us, don't let your eyes...

    Management Studio & Localhost

    Hi, Can someone confirm that if Management Studio is installed on the same server as the SQL instance, does it use the LAN to access it? I was under the impression anything that accesses localhost loopback over TCP/IP does not go out across the network, the same for a browser accessing IIS on...

    IE Truncating Query String

    I was pointed to this on another forum : https://boutell.com/newfaq/misc/urllength.html Seems like usual M$ is screwing things up and meaningful URL's mean nothing to them! "In complete darkness we are all the same, it is only our knowledge and wisdom that separates us, don't let your eyes...

    IE Truncating Query String

    Hi, I have a web app that takes a very long query string, however IE seems to be truncating it. I have increased URL / Query String length on the site in IIS, as I was getting the 404 not found error, due to long QS, this has now been resolved. However, I have found that FireFox runs fine...

    OLE SizeMode not working when control is activated

    oops just noticed I got the (1) & (2) the wrong way round in that sentence and it seems 'Edit' is on a timer?

    OLE SizeMode not working when control is activated

    Hi, Can someone advise how I get the XLS embedded object when activated to zoom to fit the control? I have Me.Office.SizeMode = acOLESizeStretch Which works fine with the preview (icon) display, but when the OLE object is activated , the active frame is smaller than the object frame. Here is...

    Command button on a tabular subform

    Have you thought about double click on the record selector? You can only grab details relating to the current record, the relevant record needs to have been selected before any button on a parent form can get any information. If you created a continuous form, you would have a button against...

    Print an OLE object

    I gave up with OLE as it's too nasty to get an elegant solution working, so I replaced the code with a shell command Public Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "shell32.dll" _ Alias "ShellExecuteA" (ByVal hWnd As Long, _ ByVal lpOperation As String, ByVal lpFile As String, _ ByVal lpParameters...
