    How can I automate future code updates?

    I have used this for many years and it works so far: I write a DOS batch file to copy the file from the server to the local pc (the application mdb is copoied, not containing the data). Before the copy, a code checks the version on the server compared to the local one. If it is older it copies...

    Try putting the format([your date],"mm/dd/yyyy") around all your dates cos it must be be converted to US format to query correctly. U can also use the CVDate command for string to date conversion.

    AutoNumbers

    One way is to send the field1 into a table at field 1 where fielod 2 in that table is an autonumber. Low overhead for large records cos autonumber is fast but u need space on disk to create a table.

    Runtime errors with my Access XP Program Expert Needed

    MS has a way of making the runtime package difficult to install smoothly, cos of the VB code. You may want to go to the VB editor, Tools, References, and add the MS Access Object 2.5/3.51 object compatibility library and re-create the runtime! I would strongly suggest getting a third party...

    Populating the sub with all products.

    I would use these commands where i control the LinkChildField and LinkMasterField property programmatically to make the filter work for you. Ie, an unbound control on the main form is linked to the field to search for on the sub form. Before the user selects the combo box option on the main...

    Multiple Users of Access DB At Same Time

    Access 2000 should not have this problem, but I recommend using a professional concurrent-user programming tool such a MS SourceSafe, where version control is available and object check-in and check-out is done to prevent 2 users editing the same code...

    I hate Access 2000

    I wrote a large commodity trading application in Access 2.0 then converted to 97 (1000 objects). That was in 1994 and until today they are still using both the 2.0 and 97 versions - for 2 companies. Why no 2000 you ask? But I have tried to convert the 97 to 2000 or sql backend or 2002. Well, i...

    Pocket Access

    See this link below. Apparently there is no Pocket Access! I am also baffled why it is in the activesync. But I like the idea of putting pressure on MS. Does not help seeing that i just purchsed an iPAQ with CE 3 days ago and the Microsoft site has not been available in these 3 days! I still...
