    Force text box to a new page on report

    I have an MS access report in which each record can have multiple images (each of which can vary in size depending on what the user wants although there are max limits set) and each image has its own caption. I've got the images to display correctly, but I'm having trouble with the caption--the...

    Create table variable with a record for each date in a range

    I am creating data for a chart. Each record in the end recordset needs to have a date and the number of open issues on that date (that I can then dump to excel for a chart). My strategy is to create a table variable populated with a record for each date within the desired range (an interval...

    Use tab in a plain text box

    I have a plain text box on a form that the users can enter multiple lines of text into. I've done some searching around and it appears that you can't use the tab key to insert a tab into the field unless you use a rich text box (hassle--i was hoping you can change it's behavior like you can the...

    I have a form that uses a stored procedure for its recordsource. When the form first opens I would like it to open to a new record, so I have it set up so when the form opens and gets it's recordset, it passes a parameter to the stored procedure that causes the stored procedure to return zero...

    MS Outlook: Assign yourself a task and keep someone else updated

    It's pretty easy to assign someone else a task and set it so it keeps you updated as they make progress on it, but how do you do the opposite--assign yourself a task and then keep someone else updated on it? Creating a new task is easy enough and I assume you assign it to yourself by not...

    Docmd.runcommand

    Is there a site anywhere that describes all the docmd.runcommand constants? It seems that in Access help and on msdn only the value of the constants is given-- with no description of what each one does or how to use it. Any leads? Thanks,

    Page Headers not displayed in subreport

    I have four reports that are similar, but unrelated. My form currently has four command buttons--one to display each report which a user can then print. I'd like to make a single button that can be used to print all four reports. It appears that the best way to do this is to create an unbound...

The current plan is to split it into a front and back end, and then store the back end on a network server here at work and distribute the front end to those who need it here at work. I will have user level security enabled, but there...
