    TransferSpreadsheet, can I export a query instead of a table?

    is the query a saved query or a sql statement? If it is a query then you can place the name of the query into the Table argument and it should work. A sql statement requires a little more work. You could create a new querydef and append it to the querydefs collection then use the...

    Boolean Fields and MicroSucks!

    The problem might be that the checkbox(I assume that this is a checkbox on the form) is defaulted to Null unless otherwise specified for new record or in an unbound form. I always give a default value to the checkbox, that way it its either true or false and not Null. Just thought I'd add my...

    Is there a data bound grid control?

    Yes, its called subform with a datasheet view. I know it isn't very helpful but, after playing with grid controls for some time I've come to the conclusion that the datasheet is the most versitle. You can control its recordsource or load it with a recordset. you can even create it...

    I have this problem with multiple records with the same address, but different people. I want to save some money on postage, so if I come across two or more records with similar addresses, I want to have it print out with the first names of the individuals, their last name (which will be the...

    Memory problems with Access

    Are you holding some of the data in temp tables in the front end? If you are, drop the temp tables as soon as you can and make sure that you compact on close. One thing you might try, and this is only if you wish to revisit how your mdb works, is to scrap your queries and use the sql...

    Create one form to add new records to multiple tables

    This may help you, make the form unbound and when the user presses the save button just run a series of "Insert Into" queries. Make sure that you start with the table with greatest priority. With a database application that I am developing, I log donors and donations. I save...

    Using an ActiveX Progress Bar with a query.

    There is a syscmd function that will allow you to use the progress bar that runs during a query. Check out the help file to work with it. The ActiveX ProgBar is really only a distraction - it actually takes resources (memory) away from the query to make it look like there is real progress...

    Query criteria has an apostraphe!! what to do?

    Aaron, if you're using Access 2000 you can use the Replace() function. What i do is check my criteria strings for single quotes then replace it with chr(44) which is an apostrophe (single quote is chr(39)) ex: strCriteria = Replace(strCriteria, "'", chr(44)) that works just great...

    Display records...

    First, is there a reason that you don't have ID in the second table? Names are easy to duplicate. Anyway, I would use a multicolumn combo with a rowsource set to a SQL statement "Select Name, Field1, Field2, ID from tblProducts, tblData Where tblProducts.[Name]=tblData.[Name]" set...

    How to evaluate a combobox to return a value to a field

    I have an idea, but its just like the multi column listbox kind of thing. The Combobox's columncount should be set to 2, columnwidths 1";0". Set the RowSourceType to "Table\Query" and then create a query that will have the medical report choices (maybe a lookup table...

    Check Boxes-how to verify for inclusion on report

    Sorry, I said if you want the 3rd column. That's wrong. The listbox columns are zero-based, so the first column is 0 like this: Mylist.column(0,varitm) I'm sorry if I confused you (thank God for debugging tools) Bob

    Check Boxes-how to verify for inclusion on report

    Just create a listbox and set its MultiSelect property to Simple or Extended. Simple lets you select more than one value in the Listbox and while Extended allows you to select a range of the listbox's values (ie Listbox row number 1 - 5, 'simple' lets you select rows 1,4,6,7,9 separately.). To...
