    It sounds to me like you need a reference to the DAO library to include the DAO methods.

    Compare data in form field to stored table data

    dlackey, I just built a mdb as table1 with a field named field1. I tied the data to form1 with an unbound box named text2. The following code says "bingo" when there is a hit and somethiing else with no hit. There are more sophisticated ways but try this. Private Sub Text2_DblClick(Cancel...

    Storing Image Files via Text Box

    Until you place a value in a field ie; (me!pic1 ) it is filled with a null value which is like no other. null + 1000 = null is an exmple. One way to get around a null is to use the nz( ) function which changes a text value to "" and a number value of null to zero which is manageable. You could...

    Save an Edited Record to another Table

    Use "set" in front of the r2 - good practise. What it appears to be saying is that you have not created an empty table of the name you use or you have not set the Tools/ Refverence/Microsoft DAO 3.6 in your libraries Rollie E

    Save an Edited Record to another Table

    What is the error? Try it with the "s" removed from the set command. r2 = currentdb.recordset("History") Rollie E

    Save an Edited Record to another Table

    This can be done with DAO or ADO. I prefer DAO and the following code will do what you want. DIM r2 as DAO.recordset , r1 as DAO.recordset ' this requires the DAO library to be checked in Tools/References in the Design Mode. set r2 = currentdb.recordset("NuTable") r2.addnew r2("fieldname1")...

    how to force right justification on part of a line?

    Just write a public function in a module and send the two sets of text to the function with a return variable of the line as you describe it. If you need the code for such a function, ask and I will code it for you. Rollie E

    Open a Form to Add Related Records

    If you wish your recordset to open in some order, you must specify that order. The data for the forms you describe above is a recordset. You can see that recordset if you go to the design mode, right click on the hidden button at the upper left of the form and look at the properties. One of...

    Open a Form to Add Related Records

    Importing Text files with wierd extentsions

    What are you doing with the text files? If you want to parse into a table, you can read them as a binary file and do the parsing. What you do with them makes a great diff. Rollie E

    Top of Stack entry

    Do an ORDER BY on the recordset of the date value. If you want it to be latest date first add a DESC to the order by. "ORDER BY" is one of the reserved methods of a recordset. Rollie

    Combo Box Problems

    You need to tell us why you want to do what you want to do. The recordset source of a combobox is, of course, a recordset. You can set the criteria to the test value of "hello" or any other OR You can search the recordset for the value. It depends on what you want to do with it once you have...

    Default Recordset Type?

    '97 has a DAO default recordset. 2000's default is ADO. To use the DAO is rather simple and the thing to do if you have any '97 users. Just link the design Tools/Reference to one of the DAO's 3.51 or 3.6 and then define the recordset variable as a DAO.Recordset Rollie

    Creating a New Record

    Lloyd, It sounds like you would do well to create a JOINed query with the main table the Sum table and the JOINed table the subordinate table. Then let the 'wiz create a form with that query. An alternate would be to use the Sum table at a main form and use a a subform to tag all the child...
