    Microsoft Access can't find the form referred to in the code

    Thank you so much! I've spent days on this and I was just about to give up. Thank you! However, I've got a new problem this time. The code ran through with no problem, but when I opened the form to check, my change to rowSource was not there! Did I not change it? Or did I not save the change...

    modify forms in other databases

    Thanks for the reply, but I still don't know how to do it. I think I'm missing something very basic here. I can do this (DAO): Set dbs = OpenDatabase("s:\Workplan-final.mdb") dbs.TableDefs("Table1").Fields("Name").Name = "Lead" Or I can do this...

    modify forms in other databases

    I need to modify the value list of a certain list box in some forms. I know how to do it for the currentProject. But I need to do the same modification for forms in about 30 different databases. How do I do that? Thanks in advance. Kuan

    change multiple control source names in multiple forms

    The design of the tables and forms are the same but they hold differrent data. Basically, there is one database for each employee.

    change multiple control source names in multiple forms

    The problem occurred after I changed all the field names of the underlying tables of the forms. I have about 30 databases. Each has a table and a form and they are identical. How can I use some kind of code to change all the form controls so that they are linked to the changed table fields? Any...

    change table field names in multiple databases

    I have all the field names in the tables changed, but now all the forms are screwed up. "#name" is everywhere. I figured out that I need to change the control source to match the new names. But there are way too many to change by hand. Please, please help! My boss wants this ASAP!

    change table field names in multiple databases

    I have 30 databases, each having one table which are identical in design (They hold different data for different people). Now I need to change some field names for all tables in all databases. I wonder if there is a way to do it instead of typing the new names again and again. Thanks in...

    how to join many tables without ending with huge number of records

    Thanks for the reply. I'm afraid UNION won't solve my problem. UNION can get rid of duplicate records. But my records are not duplicates. They contain the same values for many fields except one or two. In addition, the tables are of different structures.

    how to join many tables without ending with huge number of records

    I have a database with 10 tables and I need to put them into one big table so that they can be exported to Excel as a spreadsheet. The problem is that when I use a query to do it, the number of records mushroomed. What I have is something like this: ID field1 field2 field3 1 A H...

    All fields of a record display "#delete"

    I've got one record in my table that displays "#delete" for all fields. I cannot remove this record. Each time I try to delete it, it behaves as if it is deleted. But when I open the table again, the record is still there! And the weirdest thing is that the correct value of each...

    why "subscript out of range" when trying to create a subform?

    Hi JerryDennison, I got it! All I had to do was to delete all the records and subforms and start from fresh. Thank you very much! I'm so happy that I don't need to carry this problem into the weekend. Have a nice weekend! Kuan

    why "subscript out of range" when trying to create a subform?

    I got a new problem (or the old problem in a new form) this time. I created an autonumber primary key in the master table, linked it to a long integer field in the child table. The one-to-many table relationship seemed fine. I again created the subform using subform wizard. When I try to enter...

    why "subscript out of range" when trying to create a subform?

    Thanks a lot for the response. Now I know what the problem is. But how do I link a subform using an autonumber? The form is used for data entry. Does it mean that the person has to first find out what autonumber is created in the master table and then type it into the subform? Kuan
