    Error Importing: 'mx_FrmMain:Form' (Type Mismatch Error)

    Recently I have begun experiencing a pretty significant glitch in MS ACCESS 2002 that is causing me a major headache. When attempting to do a simple import of any type of file (.txt,.xls,.dbf etc.) I receive a quick message box that states "Type Mismatch". When I click "OK" it takes me to a...

    Simple Question! Clipper to .exe

    I don't write CLIPPER but spent time breaking down CLIPPER and rewriting as VBA last year. This year I need to run an old CLIPPER program but with some tweaking. I took the original .prg file and added the lines I needed but now I don't know how to make an .exe file to run the new code. What...

    Referencing DESKTOP Database Connect String

    Agreed. Thanks for making me think about this. Until now there was not a sql db to work off of. It was dBase files that were imported into an ACCESS db that supported the application. Now we are putting it into a sql db and updating each month. I'll wait until the sql db is setup and then...

    Referencing DESKTOP Database Connect String

    The database is actually just a GUI tool not the actual DATABASE. Sorry for the confusion. Its a SQL database with VIEWS based on the user rights. They only have read only rights. Each of them ODBC into what they are allowed to see and the application runs off of the linked tables. I...

    CCLINT - Understood. It's a giant corporation with a massive amount of account numbers that each have extensive detail. The concept was when a user selects a search criteria they can see all the similar sorted accounts in the same ballpark and their YTD balances etc. I assumed it was over the...

    List Box Overflow Error (Integer Declaration Limitation)

    No luck. I had declared i as Double globally. It's really strange. When I trap the error and glance over i it shows 32,768 - which tells me i is not having problems. But when you rollover lstAcct.list the message reads <Overflow>. Hope someone knows or I'll have to reengineer the search tool...
