    ZoneAlarm on 2000 Server

    When ZoneAlarmPro 3.1.395 is running, Active Directory won't work - get message 'The network path was not found'. When I stop ZoneAlarm, AD runs again. Am not sure which program runs AD to set this up in ZA. Also I can't get my 2nd machine (win2000) to access the internet - with or without ZA...

    Rename computer name

    In the rebuilding a client computer I inadvertently gave the machine a different name. I want to rename the machine back to it's original so that the users can access their profiles. But the server gives the message that I can't rename the machine because it is already in use. Is this a...

    SendKeys in Access 2000

    Hi there, In an Access97.mdb I had a button on a toolbar which, if clicked, would toggle through opened forms. It ran from a macro - SendKeys ^{F6}. This useful little function doesn't work in Access 2000. Any ideas on either SendKeys in Access2000 or code which will allow a user to toggle...

    Date format puzzle.

    The following code is supposed to show date in a search function. strSearch = "[" & fld.Name & "] = #" & Me.Date & "#" It sort of works but not correctly. My date format is UK ie. dd/mm/yy. If I enter dd/mm/yy into the 'Search for' box it says there are no...

    Strip numbers in a field

    Thanks for your responses. MichaelRed, you are spot on with your code. It works of course; and I am stuck with text that follows a number ie 44a Smith Street. Don't know how to strip the 'a'. Can the space between the number and street name be taken into account? Any further ideas?

    Strip numbers in a field

    I have a street field and want to be able to strip the number and leave the street name only. eg. 124 Smith Sreet would become Smith Street. I can't use Left$ because the number preceding the street name could be 1 character or 6. Any ideas appreciated

    Inserting an image in a report

    I have inserted pictures into a form thanks to DougP's code. I now want to be able to print out the record. Using the same code on the report was unsuccessful. Each record has an ID and each record has a picture linked via Dougs code. I can get the OLE Object format to work but not an Image...

    This line of code works in Access97 but not 2000

    The following line works fine in Access97 but in Access2000 I get this error: Run-time error 2455. You entered an expression that has an invalid reference to the property Input Parameter. The line is: DoCmd.DoMenuItem 7, 0, 2, , A_MENU_VER20' Save Report. I guess it's something to do with the...

    Single or Multi User versions

    I am thinking of purchasing an .mdb from a supplier - with full source code. Their price is $100 more for the Multi User version than the Single User version. I can't think of anything which would prevent one from using a 'Single User' version across a network. Am I wrong? TIA

    Should a report be based on a Table or a Query?

    I am extracting a range of info from one table to produce a number of reports. The database is networked with the table on the server in the back-end. Should these reports be based on the table or on a query which is in the local front-end? Thanks in advance

    Calling a help file from a menu bar

    I have written a help file for my Access97 DB. (*.hlp and *.cnt.) I can't figure out how to call it from the custom menu bar. All attempts to call it from a module or macro results in either nothing happening or my getting the default Access help file. Any ideas appreciated.

    How to update a value???

    My form includes calculated fields - Time, Labor, Part Cost & Total Costs. At the moment time is entered as say 1 or 2 or 2.5. Then Labor is calculated as [Time]*65 ($65.00 being the current hourly charge out rate). Then Part Cost is entered. Then Total Costs is [Labor]+[Parts_Cost]. I have put...

    Global code needed

    I want to change the font color of a field if a certain condition is met. The condition is: if tbl1.field1 = true then tbl2.field2 fontcolor = red otherwise tbl2.field2 fontcolor is black. This looks straight forward but tbl1.field1 is on a subform and tbl2.field2 is on a second subform - both...

    Loading Access97 after Access2000

    I want to unload Access2000 and install Access97. Are there any traps I should be aware of? Is it as simple as uninstalling Access2000? Can they both exist on the same hard drive?
