    I am trying to get an auto disconnect prompt when a user closes IE6 (win XP). Currently you have to remember to click on connection in system tray and close connection there. It works real well unless user forgets to do so and leaves connection open. I know I can set a time out to...

    Type mismatch error using For Each...Next with cmd buttons

    Loomah, I'm sorry. No, I didn't copy your code (I should have) & I missed one of your modifications. To make matters worse, you had commented the change so I wouldn't miss it! Everything is working now. I really appreciate your help!

    Type mismatch error using For Each...Next with cmd buttons

    Thanks for the help Loomah. I still get the type mismatch error. What I'm trying to do is write generic code to disable all command buttons on a form after the user presses any command button. I will eventually put this code in a procedure which I will call as the click event of my buttons...

When we get together we spend several hours of our time putting our most current version of our respective objects (forms, reports, queries, etc.) into the same .mdb file. Is there anyway to speed...

    Coloring records..?

    Anything's possible! I'm probably misunderstanding still but this works on the test form I set up. I moved the code to the On Current event of the form. It now makes the background of the form change colors based on the value of your list box. I think this is what you want since On Current...

    Coloring records..?

    Hi, I'm sort of new at this but I think the following would work. Of course, you already know the values which can be in the status field or you couldn't pick what colors to change to, right? I set up a Select Case statement on the lost focus event of the list box which changes the ForeColor...

    Compacting a Database?

    I'm not sure about Access 97 but with Access 2000 you can go to tools -> options -> general and choose "compact on close". I don't have a copy of Access 97 loaded to test this but I hope you can do it in that version also.
