    Capture a cell value an place in excel page header or footer

    My worksheet is grouped by ID#. I'm using the excel subtotals command with page breaks on each group. I need to include the ID# on my report but including the ID# column will make the report too wide. Is it possible to capture the ID# for each group and place it either in the page header or...

    Incoming POP3 changes (email scanning is off)

    FYI, I've solved my problem for the time being. I disabled the spam blocker which didn't help. Uninstalling it did the trick. The products had been working together for months.

    Incoming POP3 changes (email scanning is off)

    My incoming mail server setting keeps changing to 127.0.01 on reboot. I've disabled the anti-virus email scanning feature as suggested on this forum. It didn't solve the problem. Any other suggestions? Using Outlook Express 6 w/ McAfee 9.1

    DataErr 2169 Customization

    Roy-Vidar, Thanks for confirming that it is not possible to override the default action within the form error event. As I mentioned in a previous response, I was considering forcing the use of a cutomized exit button as an alternative.

    DataErr 2169 Customization

    Hi Roy-Vidar I am already using the form's before update event to validate the data before the record is saved. I display a message, set the focus to the offending control and cancel the update. But as you know, if the user closes the form without correcting the record, form error 2169 is...

    DataErr 2169 Customization

    Thanks for the reply Roy-Vidar, Yeah, I'm already using the update events for data validation and I thought about forcing the use of an exit button. I'm just thinking about the user that will ignore the prompts, not understand the Access message and close the form or the application. It seems...

    DataErr 2169 Customization

    Thanks for the quick reply, Randy. My problem is I have to suppress the default message with response = acDataErrorContine in order for my custom box to appear. When I do, Access defaults as if the user chose the “yes, I want to close anyway” option from the standard error message and...

    DataErr 2169 Customization

    Using the form's error event, I've replaced the default message for the error 2169 "You can't save this record at this time..." with one of my own but I would like to keep the yes/no button functionality of the original message. I want the user to remain on the record until he corrects or...

    Displaying & character

    You've made the 'C' into an accelerator key by placing the ampersand in front of it. The user can press alt+C to jump to that field. Usually, you'll want to use this feature on buttons like 'Add Record' with the A underlined. AB&&CDE will make the ampersand part of the caption. The...

    Running queries through forms from FAQ's.

    Sorry for the double-post. Maybe it's a spelling error since the sample data was entered directly in the tables without referential integrity set. Check "Supervisor" in both tables.

    Running queries through forms from FAQ's.

    Ok, let's start over (almost). Open Employee_Query in design view and remove the criteria. Run the query. Does it return all the records from the Employee table? Have you ever created a parameter query?

    Running queries through forms from FAQ's.

    A form does not have a control source. A form has a record source. If you were building a form based on a table or a query, this is were you place the name of the table or query the form is based on. That's not the purpose of the form in his example. He's created a 'blank' form (one with no...
