    Unsure of filename being imported

    Hi All,<br> <br> I'm trying to allow the user to choose the name of a dBase file being sent for importing or linking into my database, but can't seem to get past the required argument TransferDatabase/Filename. I checked the help files for a while, and they weren't very helpful in showing...

    PIII and Access 97 Issue?

    Got a doozie for yall.<br> <br> I've have a novell network-based Access 97 SR-2 invoice database running nicely for the past couple years...holding around the 400 meg mark. It's been running on 486's, Pentiums, and PII's without a hitch.<br> <br> The problem started when we installed two new...

    Sharable Database

    Hiya,<br> <br> Might have another 2 cents to add. Try changing the locking in the source object to snapshot and see if that changes your situation. It might be that the record that you're opening when starting the database is already being accessed by the first user, and cannot be seen.. It...

    Sharable Database

    I've done that with a few applications by just putting the mdb file on a shared network drive. From there I've created shortcuts from the individual's desktops and most have been running fine for the last 2 years.<br> <br> Instructions for this recommend using the database splitter in the...

    Better report export format than snapshot?

    Here's one that frustrates me to no end! <br> <br> I know about MS Snapshot export format as useful in creating email-attachable report copies for convenient distribution...well, almost convenient. They have to have the software, too.<br> <br> Export to MS Word messes up my report formats, is...

    Using DatePart "d" in a date field

    Hiya Geekette,<br> <br> This is as far as I got on your question. Used as a control source for a control, it results in a date formatted control.<br> <br> Month(Now()) & &quot;/&quot; & [Form control Name] & &quot;/&quot; & Year(Now())<br> <br> Hope this helps!<br> Drew

    Dynamically choosing a table via form control to insert a record

    Thank you for your response.<br> <br> Is there a way for the 'INSERT INTO Table1... ' portion of the example to be similar to 'INSERT INTO [Forms]![frmInputForm]![txtInputField1] (interpreted by SQL as a table])'<br> <br> Perhaps I could dim a table variable and assign the form control to that...

    How to change report presentation of recordset groups?

    ty for your reply, Rochelle.<br> <br> I tried for a couple hours today, but kept getting a user-defined type error on the &quot;...as text&quot; statements. Tried changing it to type string, but then i got an error on the 'set rst = dbs.OpenRecordset(strSQL, dbOpenDynaset)' line about different...

    Dynamically choosing a table via form control to insert a record

    This one has been bugging me for some time.<br> <br> I'd like to determine which table to insert a record into after validation of the entered values, and based upon one of the user's selections on the form. It seems like a reasonable action, but I'm still a novice at sql, so have chewed my...

    Combo Boxes selecting query criteria for reports

    Thanx Rochelle, I tried that criteria trick, and now can seriously cut down the number of queries in my application. <br>

    Combo Boxes selecting query criteria for reports

    This has been a problem I've wound up duct taping a number of queries together to solve...but I think I found an easier way. The Nz() function has a description of &quot;Nz(variant[, valueifnull])&quot;, so is it possible a wildcard could be inserted as the value if null in the query?

    How to write data to a table

    Run an append query of that information to the destination table is the way i would do it, setting warnings off.

    How to change report presentation of recordset groups?

    Hi All,<br> <br> New to this forum, but this is a problem that's been stumping me for some time, and wanted to see if I've been looking too hard at the wrong solution.<br> <br> Rather than a lengthy sub-report listing matches to it's parent, I'd like a single control on a report (or sub-report)...
