    VBA is opening Excel as "read only"

    Well, I'm embarrassed to admit that the problem was totally my fault. In order to determine what worksheet the user would like to update, the user is presented with a form containing a combo box that lists the worksheets in the target workbook. When creating this form, I failed to properly close...

    VBA is opening Excel as "read only"

    No, I don't get the warning upon opening the spreadsheet during the update process inside VBA. I do get the warning when trying to manually open the sheet after trying to update it with VBA.

    Replacing IE with Firefox in VBA code

    When my group switched to IE7, certain web page graphics that were available in IE6 (and Firefox) are only showing up as placeholders now. I have searched and searched and can't find a way to turn these graphics on. Some graphics are still there, so graphics are not blocked. I'm accessing IE...

    Opening a non-Access file from within Access

    I have an Access 97 database that stores the contents of specified directories in an Access table. The database contains a form on which I can search for a specific file to see where it is on the drive. I would like to know how to open the file (say, a ".doc" file) from this form. I know how to...

    I'm using Access 97 and I have a simple database that I use to help me keep track of tasks I need to check on from time to time during the workday. To that end, the database opens three forms at once, each of which has a different use. It's really helpful to have all three open at once rather...
