    Pivot Table external datasource issue

    I figured out what the issue was with Question #1 - I didn't have Microsoft Query installed. My pc was recently redone and apparently MS Query didn't get reinstalled. So got that handled. But still need to know answer to Ques#2 about eliminating names of employees that are not included in...

    Delete query problems

    Thanks PH for the VERY prompt reply. Well, I tried the code you supplied and didn't get the message noted above, but it took forever to run (appears to be hung up) and finally returned zero records and I know there should be 1678 returned. In trying to do some troubleshooting, I changed the...

    Delete record when form is locked

    This may sound elementary, but I have a simple question. I have access03. When a form or subform 'Locked' property is set to Yes, does it also prevent deleting records or do I need to address that separately? Linda in MN

    Hiding rows in a pivot table

    Geoff: The code you posted earlier probably works like a charm. However I am inexperienced in Excel and don't have a clue what the code would be to determine the last row in my pivot table. OR, it just dawned on me, is LastRow a property that can be referenced just as your code shows? Linda...

    Hiding rows in a pivot table

    barbola: It is always the bottom 16 ROWS. These rows contain financial stats that they don't always want to show on the printout to distribute, but may want to review it or print for key authorized personnel. So I do need to be able to show or not show the entire row of data (16 rows). I...

    Ques on ODBC refresh interval

    In Access 2003, the ODBC refresh interval is set at 1500 (sec) - that is 25 minutes. That seems high to me, but I am not an expert. What are the implications of changing to a lower setting? My situation is a network shared backend mdb with a local front end mde. Linda in MN

    Value won't pass to spreadsheet from Access form

    OK, I finally figured it out. The spreadsheet tabs were in reverse order (Sheet 2 / Sheet 1) so I dragged the tab for sheet one over and hooray - it works again. I don't have much Excel experience and have no idea how that happened. Anyhow it's working! Linda in MN

    Value won't pass to spreadsheet from Access form

    I see what's happening - the value I'm passing is getting to sheet 2 somehow. correct cell, wrong sheet. If I delete sheet 2, then it works - if I add sheet 2 then the info is passed to the correct cell, but wrong sheet. Sheet 1 (as shown on bottom tab) is the one it's supposed to go to. Am I...

    How to NOT allow Pivot Table to be saved on close

    I have an Pivot Table that I need to allow user to do a "save as", but don't want them to be able to just do a "Save". I don't want any user changes/manipulations to be saved, but I do want them to be able to utilize the PT and close without saving. Is there some way that I can disable the...

    Problem refreshing data for pivot table

    Ok, I'm not sure how I did it because it seems like I've tried the exact same thing several times, but obviously I did something different because I did reconnect the data. Now my issue is how can I automatically refresh the data using code on my access form? Linda in MN
