    Underlining text on a Word form

    Below one of the questions on the form are several lines on which the user can type a response. However, since the lines were entered with the underline key (_) the lines move over when the users type their response. If they format the text to be underlined, the line created by the underline...

    Text box contents based on combo box contents yet still editable?

    I'm working on a database for a hair salon. On the data entry subform I would like to be able to select a service from a combo box (pulled from tblServices) and then have the corresponding price automatically appear in txtPrice on the form. I originally set the control source for txtPrice to...

    Report based on Checkbox value

    Since each contact could be a member of more than one group (i.e., more than one Yes/No box could be checked), I used the following code in the OnClick event of a button on the frmSelectGroup. Make sure the options in the drop-down list of the combo box on frmSelectGroup are spelled *exactly*...

    I have an Access 2003 database with a table and a form containing contact information and 20 Yes/No fields. The names are tblMaster and frmMaster. The check boxes represent up to 20 different groups that the contacts can be a member of. I've created another form (frmSelectGroup) which allows...

    I want the form to display course info and instructors from past semesters as well as the current semester.

    Access Snapshots

    Is there a maximum number of pages that can be exported from Access 2002 to a Snapshot file? How much memory is required to export large reports? I'm trying to export several reports into snapshot files. The smaller reports seem to work ok, but the 12-page report crashes every time. Sometimes I...

    "Could not lock file"

    I have an Access 2002 database with user-level security that is split into a front end and back end. When I'm logged into the network as administrator, everything works great. When I'm logged into the network as a user, I get different messages. If I try to log into the database using a...

    I'm working on a database for oil well check disbursements. The table tblOwners stores the investor names and their investment interest percent for each oil well.

    Round currency

    I am creating an Access XP database for oil well royalties. Each of the wells has 3-5 working interest investors, each with equal percent ownership of the royalties. When the royalty check is distributed, the payment amount does not always come out perfectly equal. For example...

    Import text & automate task in Excel

    I've imported a text file into Excel but I don't need every row of data. I've started on a macro to automate the tasks of deleting the extra rows, but I don't know how to make it loop through a certain set of events. I need it to check the active cell to see if it contains text. If it does...

    Clear logon name

    One more question, when I use the /user switch as suggested in the Microsoft article, the login screen comes up with the cursor blinking in the password text box instead of the user name text box. Is there a way to make the cursor first appear in the user name box instead?

    Clear logon name

    I've set up user-level security on an Access XP database. Is there a way to "clear out" the name box on the logon form so the name of the last person who logged in is not displayed when the database is opened? Thanks.

    Multiple reports from one form?

    My Access XP database contains several reports. For each report the user needs to be prompted to enter a beginning and ending date which are used to select records from the database. I've created a form and query which work w/ a single report. Is there a way to use this same form to allow...

    Remove item from list but not from previous records

    I have a database that uses several combo boxes which allow the users to select an item from the combo box list. The list entries are stored in a separate "lookup" table. If a desired entry is not in the list, the Not In List event is used to allow the users to add the new entry to...

    I am creating a db of information and pictures of various properties (houses). There is a maximum of 6 pictures for each property. I'm trying to link to the images, but it appears that they are still being embedded in the db. Currently, I'm using a bound OLE object frame to display the...
