Unable To Print A Picture From The Database On The Report!!!
Hi,
We are a group of two developers currently working on Visual Basic 6.0
with MS-Access 2000 as the back-end.
We are currently involved in a educational project in which the Access database
stores questions(in a Memo type of field in Access) pertaining to different subjects like

Physics, Mathematics etc.
The questions are entered through a VB form into a richtextbox which then gets
updated in the database as a memo field.

The questions are stored in the database table as richtext symbols as shown below:
So when a picture(i.e. containing a graph etc.) or a chemical equation is saved through
the richtextbox of VB into the database, this is the following format in which it gets
saved in the Access table.


"{
tf1ansideff0deftab720{fonttbl{f0fswiss MS Sans Serif;}{f1fromanfcharset2

Symbol;}{f2fromanfprq2 Times New Roman;}{f3fswiss MS Sans Serif;}}
{colortbl
ed0green0lue0;}
deflang1033pardplainf2fs24i The earth originated aboutplainf3fs17
par }
"

The issue is that we are UNABLE to create a report containing the questions using

DataReport
of VB as it does not support richtext control. Image controls of Datareport too don't work!!!
Creating a report in Access containing richtextbox ActiveX control also does not work.
This is a issue confirmed by Microsoft and the workaround for the Access report has
been provided by a company FMS Inc.. But their package is a trial version only!!

So could u please help us out 'coz this is posing a major problem to us as the end-users
(in our case , students) need to see the subject questions in a report format!!

RTF readers were also not of much help.
Help pleeeeeeeeaaaaaaassssssssseeeeeeee!!!!!!!!
Its urgent!!
U could please get back to us for any further clarification on this issue!!!
either on this site or to our personal e-mail ids:
mh_jaya@usa.net
manjula_rani@usa.net

Thanx,

Expecting a solution,

Jaya & Manju

Unable To Change Button Color.
I changed the uggly form background and then the color of the frames in the form but when I tried to change the color of buttons buttons they didn't change. I tried background and mask?. I guess I didn't pick the correct property, or there is some other property that locks the button so that the color can't be changed.

I'll appreciate your help,

Alex

Changing Picture Of Button On Button Down Or Click??
Hello,

I am writing a a program for a radio interface... what I am trying to do is change the picture of a button once it is clicked or depressed. Example-- when I press the mute button, I would like the image on the button to change colors (indicating it had been pressed) and when you click it again it un-mutes and returns to the original image.

Hopefully I have explained myself well enough... any advice would SURE be appreciated...

Thanks in advance...

Unable To &"click&" On Commnd Button
Hi all,
I have an MSHFlexgrid. When I click/mouse down on a particular cell, an invisible text box (in pink) and a command button are made visible. I first give the textbox.zorder and then the command button.zorder. As you can see, the command button appears in front. However, when I try to click on the command button, it's the grids mouse down/click event that is triggered. Why is this?

Button+picture
you may have noticed that when you change the property of the normal command button "Style" to = "Graphical" , you are capable of having a picture on the button...

the problem is that i want to have a picture on the button's left side while on it's right side ( the picture's right side ) there will be the button's caption...

p.s as far as i have seen , the caption of the button will always be under the picture !
i want them ( picture + caption ) to be side to side

Picture Button And Toggle
I have a custom control which is a picture button. It has the properties picture.down, picture.up and picture.disabled where each of these properties are given a bmp image during the design stage. It does not rely on the 'load' system. i like this control as it allows the buttons to autosize to the picture without a border etc.

These pictures are then shown when the button is pushed.

Would anyone know how to turn this into a toggle button.

It does have the CausesValidation property if thats any help.

Many thanks,

Steve Tisseyre

Picture Box / Command Button
I'm using a form that was generated by the Data Form wizard. At the bottom, there is a row of buttons (Update, Cancel, Delete, etc). I need to add a button. But dragging and dropping a command button doesn't seem to put the button inside the object in which the rest of the buttons are housed. This object is given as a picture box. I looked up picture boxes in my book and it's all about pictures and animation. How can I add a function button to my generated form?

Button Vs. Picture Control
Hi,
In my program I'm using about 100 Picture Boxes. When I click on any Picture Box it changes background color in rotation (Red-Yello-Green-Blue-Brown- and back to Red). For efficiency reason I wanted to use Image Controls instead but they don't support background property.

What if I use 100 Command Buttons (style=1 graphical) and change their colors when clicked, would that be more efficient that 100 Picture Boxes? All I want is to be able to click on small square (Button or Picture Box) and by doing so change it's color.

Thanks

ICONS As A PICTURE ON COMMAND BUTTON
I'm loading icons into a IMAGELIST control as 16 x 16 icons.
I'm then setting the PICTURE property of command buttons to the images in the IMAGELIST control.
On my PC they are views as small 16x16 images most of the time. Sometimes they show as 32x32 images for no obvious reasons. When running the program on other machines the images always show as 32x32 ? I want them to always show as 16x16. What is happening ? We are all using 1024 resolution with truecolour set in the appearences section of windows.

Rotate A Command Button Picture
Hello All, up front let me say i am a newb, with just enough experience to be dangerous

I am having problems with a program i am working on using vb6, esentialy it is a layout of command buttons wich i have made graphical and am placing pictures from another form in the project onto the buttons, depending on variables the user selects in the opening screen, the images need to be vertical or horizontal (or sideways).

So my problem is a couple of the buttons i need to make it appear that the picture is sideways. redrawing the command button isnt hard at all, but rotating the image 90 degrees, is what is realy driving me nuts. I am guesing there has got to be a simple way to do this but after 4 days of searching and reading my eyes are crossed and i am running out of hair to pull out

Any assistance would be most appreciated.
Thank You
