    Tearing my hair out - Coldfusion/Apache problem

    I have searched high and low for a solution to this problem with no luck, although it seems to be a common problem. I have installed Apache server 2.0.59 and then Cold Fusion 6.1. When I go to view any .cfm file in the browser I just get asked if I want to save the file, and yet .html files are...

    Keeping column sizes when updating data from Access

    I have an Excel spreadsheet linked via data source to an Access database. The problem is that I have to painstakingly adjust all the columns to a particular size every time I update the data. Setting it to autofit is no use as some of the columns would then be too wide, so they all have to be...

    Get last record for items

    OK, I am officially stumped and have checked the search (using above criteria produces hundreds of previous posts, none of which address this problem). I have an Equipment table and a Certs table with a one-to-many relationship - each item is tested and certified at six monthly intervals. I...

    TopValues must be descending, but records must be shown ascending

    OK, this one is doing my head in. I am sure there must be an answer out there as it seems so elementary but I cannot get my head round it. I have a VB app that accesses an Access database. I want to pick the last 10 records according to date/time. This requires me to set up a query using SQL...

    JTabbedPane change tab event

    Is there some way of trapping the event when someone clicks on a tab to change the view in a JTabbedPane. I want the data being shown in the tab that the user is going to to be updated at this point, based on data in the other tab that they are just coming from. Have fun! :o) Alex Middleton

    Microsoft Access to Visual Basic

    I currently manage several databases in Microsoft Access and wish to migrate these to Visual Basic stand-alone applications. I wish to do this because there are currently compatibility problems between versions of Microsoft Access that we do not require to have in the future. I would prefer to...

    Group By, Last, query does not work

    This is a recurring problem, which occurs sometimes and not others, with no apparent reason why. I have an equipment table and a certs table, linked 1 to many, ie each item can have several certs. I need a query showing all the items with the LAST cert for each item. This could be done by...

    Compact Database Automation not working

    I don't know if anyone has come across this. I am using Access 97. I have a menu option for users to compact databses, as they get very large during use. It has always worked flawlessly in the past, i.e. on clicking the menu item the database compacts and reopens. Now, when they click the menu...

    Delete object in other database not working

    Well, I have tried and tried and tried! I am trying to export objects to another database but this has always produced an general error that causes Access (97) to shutdown. This is a known problem and there is a fix in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (Article Q160875) that gives code to delete the...

    Users can give themselves permissions

    I have secured databases that are used by many users with different levels of security. A few users need Admins permissions so that they can add other users. I do not, however, want even these users being able to modify the design of any objects in the database. To prevent this I have...

    MS Access Error Logs

    Every now and then I get a message saying "MS Access has created an error and will be shut down (not sure of the exact wording). An error log has been created." The only problem is, I can;t find the error log. Does anyone know where these are found? Alex Middleton
