    test for no data in form

    Don't think there is an event that would meet your needs, but might be wrong. Still performing a simple .bof and .eof or DLookup statement on the command button click wouldn't provide too many difficulties. Regards, John

    Set warnings is false for nothing

    If you want no error message to be displayed when the input mask is invalid, then you can use the Form_Error event to catch when an invalid input is made. Private Sub Form_Error(DataErr As Integer, Response As Integer) If Screen.ActiveControl.Name = "YourTextControl" Then...

    Code for incrementing

    In reply to 1) When you have imported your spreadsheet with the current membership numbers, you can use code to increment any new entries to follow on straight from the last membership number in that field. You can create a select query recordset that is sorted descending (so the largest...

    Problem with a recodset, i can't modify data in it

    You might want to try: frmAjoutBandesVideos.RecordSource = rsBD I dont think you can directly bind the recordset to the form, instead the record source preperty allows you to do this. Regards, John

    Multiuser problems.....

    Networked Access database set to "read only"

    OnTheFly, I think with this post, 9star is implying that he would prefer advice on how to find out how he can discover the person that changed the read only status (rather than how to change it back) - any suggestions? Regards, John

    Networked Access database set to "read only"

    Theres nothing in Access that would store something ofthis nature, so I think you are out of luck there. I would suggest possibly posting this message on another TekTips forum to do with Networking, who might be able to offer you some advice whether it is possible to follow some sort of audit...

    Calendar Control 9.0

    I think I understand what you mean. Essentially, you want to be able to change the colour of the text on the calender for a specific day? I'm not sure this is possible. I only have Calender Control 8.0 here, but the closest property I could find (DayFontColor) only allows the colour of all...

    Hello, Is it possible that the users are opening the database 'exclusively', i.e. so they can be the only user using the database at this particular tim - this is done by File > Open Database then clicking the Exclusive check box before clicking open? Regards, John

    File Not Found--simple VBA code

    I don't really have much experience with using files in this way in VBA, but could it be because ou are using the wildcard character (*). If there is more that one file that starts with SRAD then it could cause a problem? Alternatively, it could be looking for a file literally called SRAD*.CSV...

    Startup Form Depends on User

    Good point about the environ call MinnKota. However, show some caution when using it as it is dependant on the O/S. I think the environ("username") worked OK for me in Win95/98 however I got stung in Win 2000 and had to use environ("nwusername"). Failing that of course you could use an API...

    ms-dos version number

    cheers, Returns: "Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195]" So is there a way of finding the underlying version number? or is this it? BTW, the reason this is on a Windows 95/98 forum is because some clients are on Win98. cheers, John
