    NOT connecting to another computer using DUN -help pl!

Clicking on it gives u a dialog box in which there is the option 'allow...

    getting GROUP top vavues in report

    Hi rafe/Gord Quite a bit of heavy coding rafe-I'd need the aspirins now! But I did pull out a few more of my hair and finally got to a very compact code solution. Drawing upon the various ideas put up here, I found the flagging proposal very neat and have used it here. This is how it's done. I...

    getting GROUP top vavues in report

    Hi Gord Thanks a lot for the 'record grabber' code. I think it will make my d/b faster as i can avoid running through many many 'dlookup' statements. I did download and run your 'tigireport'. It is a fast solution and will serve my purpose as a stopgap arrangement. On giving some thought to...

    Lookup tbl value based on variable set on form

    Hi Gord No,no, any case you've given me a fast solution to the top value problem. As for this, its not 6 tables, rather 6 fields in a table. I pull them out one by one using dlookup 6 times. Its like this. I have a table 't1' with daily data. I open up a form which has a different table 't2' as...

    getting GROUP top vavues in report

    Gord Eureka! Thats a nice fast solution, though a plate-full of queries. How true, often we fail to see whats below our nose. I'll try and look into possibility of generating and deleting the queries dynamically so that the query window will not look overcrowed. Of course before running...

    Lookup tbl value based on variable set on form

    Gord Hope you saw the posting on the reports forum. I saw your 'Dlookup' solution here and it just reminded me of a problem I had faced. I have to get multiple fields out of a table to update labels in a form. I do the 'dlookup' business about sixtimes in every record for six fields. Is there a...

    Martinf Your solution is very elegant. I had the same problem, and had been living with the constraints of a fixed height grid.Now I'm liberated from that constraint! Thanks Tigi

    getting GROUP top vavues in report

    rafe/ghubbell Thanks to rafe for the alternate route. Your suggestion of flagging the same records looks very interesting, but i persume, a bit of heavy coding will be required. Your suggestion of using forms is also interesting. What crosses my mind right now is to use a form to do the...

    getting GROUP top vavues in report

    rafe/ghubbell Thanks very much for putting your efforts on my problem. As suggested by rafe, I have tried out a programming approach for reports. The solution i have struck on is very simple and as follows. sorting and grouping is set so that grouping is formed on month followed by...

    Query to return the TOP 25, BUT from the last records

    Rafe/ghubbell There is a related problem that that I had faced and posted in one of these forums(Access reports), for which I did not get any response. I am putting it again. Problem relates to getting top values in a GROUP. For eg. I have a table of monthly productions for a whole year from...
