    Problem with SelStart when inserting character into text box by clicking a button

    I designed a keyboard on a sub form to insert letters with diacritics in a text box at the cursor. The following code works OK if I don't use my computer keyboard (that's a big if). At that point, it will only add text after the last character in the text box. Here is the code on a button to...

    Remove Windows Theme from forms but retain Windows command buttons

    Access 2003, XP Pro I have always brightened up the boring Access tab page control by putting a box with a back color over each page. I just discovered another way: Click Tools / Options / Forms/Reports Then uncheck: Use Windows Themed Controls on Forms. Apply a back color to Detail. Make the...

    Problem with Duane Hookom's Concatenate function in a textbox on a sub

    Access 2003, XP I used Duane Hookom's Concatenate function to list a single field from a table in a text box on my main form and it works perfectly.
