    Crop an image

    Hey people, I'm pulling my hair out, I can't figure out how to crop an image to a simple retangle size. I've got an image, set it to a graphics object and set a retangle to that, but can't see what to do after :(

    change IE home page from code

    Could someone kindly point me in the direction on how to accomplish this? I've been searching and found little, perhaps there are many ways, would one of them be to find keys and edit the the registry? Is there an easier way?

    VB & Word - mail merge with ODBC

    Thanks so much hookbob. I just ended up using a DSN-less connection. I provided a form to the user to specify where the mdb was located (and the mail merge .doc's). All works lovely :) Got it printing labels on avery paper nicely too.

    Printing

    Do you mean print all the rows contained in a table in Access? You'll need to pull all the data off the db and whack it on a report (datareports will suffice), then printing the report is easy. Look up in msdn for visual basic - creating a simple data report

    VB - Access date querying is messed up!

    CCLINT, I format all dates in dd/mm/yy format. When I queried dates which "could" be mistaken for mm/dd/yy it did, for dates that couldn't be mistaken eg. 13/12/99, it was fine. Anyway I don't trust Access, I'm sticking to dd-mmm-yy. It once confused two text fields on an Access Form...

    VB &amp; Word - mail merge with ODBC

    It seems only Word 2002 (XP) allows u to choose the datasource as ODBC as an option.. Has anyone here figured out how to use ODBC with say Word 2000 or 97? Otherwise I guess I'm going to have to use a direct link to the mdb file.

    Mail Merge datasource!

    Ah no, as usual I'm being impatient. Here's the answer Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 285332 HOWTO: Automate Word 2002 with Visual Basic to Create a Mail Merge http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=285332 Under title &quot;Using ODBC&quot; :)

    Mail Merge datasource!

    I've noticed you have to set Word's datasource property for it to accomplish a mail merge, but my VB application is connecting to an MDB using ODBC, as such it has no clue where the MDB file is (it'll be somewhere on the LAN). Isn't it possible to do a mail merge by applying an ADO connection...
