    Add Leading Spaces

    I'm working in a query in Access 2003 and I need the "ProgramCode" field to return a 5 digit alphanumeric code with leading spaces. The program codes are actually 1 to 3 character alphanumeric codes. I can get it to work with numeric codes only, but I'm having a problem with alphanumeric. I'd...

    Cannot Delete Record in Table

    I opened the backend exclusively and cannot delete. I deleted the link and linked it back and still the same. This is a database that I converted the FE from Access 97 to Access 2003 last year and had no problems, until I just converted the BE in November and having problems. To fix this...

    Invalid Argument

    I found the problem in the data in the table. All the fields in one of the records had #error. It would not let me delete the record, so I created another table and copied all the records except the bad record to the new table. It's working fine now. I've seen this before. Anyone know what...

    Saving Excel File Error

    I think we found the problem. The antivirus was the culprit. The server is running a different av than the computers and there was a conflict. We just changed a setting on the computers.

    Code to join workgroup

    My network is Novell. Could that possibly be the reason I'm getting the error message when I use the shortcut with the command line? Any Novell users out there using Access 2003 and using the shortcut without problems?

    Problem running macro on ThinkPad

    I'm using Access 2003 and having a problem with a macro running on the IBM X41 ThinkPads. It runs fine on the PC's. The macro has a couple of sendkeys actions and I was thinking maybe the problem was the users with ThinkPads are using a wireless keyboard and not the ThinkPad keyboard. Anyone...

    Macro to join Workgroup file?

    I didn't have any problem with Access 97. There must be some way that I can join a workgroup in Access 2003 without the risk of it switching back to the default system.mdw. I've already tried importing objects into a new database joined to my workgroup file and that does even work without the...
