I just change my default menu bar in access from start up option. And created a new menu with some sub menu which I want. But when I remove all tick mark from different toolbar and only select my new menu, I can't show default menu bar again. How I can show default menu bar?
I am building a db and i want to disable the Shortcut Menu (pull down menu at form's title bar) to prevent the users from closing the main form.
There is a Disable Shortcut menu setting in the File/Options menu but the whole db gets the setting.
I simply want to deny the users from accessing the Shortcut Menu when on the Main Menu (or a particular form) but allow it on other forms where Printing is required via the Shortcut Menu.
Im looking at 2 options; edit the shortcut menu or force a form to disable that w/o affecting other forms.
I have a BE database that we have been using for over a year. I imported data from an external database into this database. Now I've found that my Autonumber has reset to a very low number -- that was imported from my external database. Is there a way to change this autonumber BACK to what it was and increment up? The lowest autonumber in this database is 275944, so I don't have to worry about duplicates in the near future. I would like it reset to 457230, or at least higher than that number.
I have created a database and made the steps to the user-level security and VBA protected the project but i lost the passwords and the MDW file.
is there any way to reset the VBA pass then reset the security level?
this is very important for my business it's a school database with lots of info and it's critical for me to update or at least export some reports and forms to a new project
I have several menus defined for Access 2010. However, only one is set with the visible property set to true.The user is able to show and bring up the other menus by right-clicking in the menu area. How can I disable this so the user may not bring up these menus? An example is shown in the picture below. I don't want to give the user access to the "CPLAccess" and "Datasheet column removed" menus, but I do want to keep them so that I can make them visible via VBA.
I have a database that was created in Access 2003. I'm using this MDB in Access 2010.I need to change a user created menu. The update involves changing an existing entry and adding a new menu item. The menu looks like:
Project Time Entry Time Spread
I need the "Time Spread" to change to "Time Spread Daily" with a changed macro name. After that a new menu entry is "Time Spread Monthly". This menu will run a new macro that will display a form.I think the only way to do that in 2010 is to use VBA.
I want to open the 'Save Backup As' Dialogue Box from the file menu, using a Command Button on a Form in Access 2003.I know you can do this manually but I would love to do it programically.
I want to lock down and unlock the full menu based on a password..
For instance upon load of the database I would like it stripped down when a general user logs in... but if a admin logins in then they get all menus...
so based on the user type will dictate the menus visible.. cane this be achieved'''''''''''';
I got a COMBO BOX with 2 columns , for instance code and name.
CODE NAME 123 JOHN 124 JACK 125 BILLY 126 MARY
In the OPEN form action which the form using this combo to do some query action, I want to put a default value to this combo box after a VBA query result of which should return a name to this form. Just want to know how to put the result to this combo box, e.g. when the VBA query return a name Billy. What's the syntax to make this combo box equal to Billy and do corresponding query?? Thans a lot!! FOr the time being I just know the following syntax, but since the combo box got 2 columns and how can I know Billy is located in the third record?
My DB has one main table where all the records are stored, and one form with multiple tabs allowing for data entry and editing. There are two distinct "Data Types" I have in the tables, so on the two distinct form tabs, I created a text box with a default value for each one (if it's a Type A record, then the box has a default value of "Type A" and the same rules for Type B).
Here's the problem. It doesn't matter if I include the default value in the Form Properties Default Value field or if I do in VBA (using this method), when a new record is entered into the table, it makes them all default Type B records.
When I have the Home and Create default ribbons showing... then when I choose to Preview a report the Print Preview Ribbon is displayed and the Home and Create Ribbons are hidden or not visible.I have created a CustomRibbon and this CustomRibbon is not hidden when I choose to preview a report. The Print Preview ribbon is shown but the CustomRibbon keeps the focus and is not hidden.I would like for the CustomRibbon to not be visible.
I have a form with multiple combo boxes. Once the combo boxes are populated, I need the text box to look up the value in the query based on two combo box selections.I am attempting to do a DLOOKUP, but I am obviously not doing it correctly because the result is #NAME?.
Here is what I have done: In Default Value section of the txtONE property sheet: =DLookUp([fieldTHREE],[qryMAIN],[cmbONE].[AfterUpdate] And [cmbTWO].[AfterUpdate])
On an existing DB i have set a default value for a field. The customer has now asked that they be able to change this default. I thought, hey, no big problem. They have SuperUsers, so i included a little pop up form that lists all the current valid values for that field (from a look up table). If the default value needs to change a superuser can access this and select the new default. That works fine. The trouble comes when setting the default value on a form.
I figured a simple bit of VBA in the OnOpen event - Me.cmbTypes.Value = Me.cmbTypes.DefaultValue - should work. However the value it returns from the default is ""xxxx"" and as such it is read as "". I can work around it by removing the extra " " but WHY does it do this? Would it be better to set this up as a custom property of the DB?
I have a folder under the default on in outlook named ANOTHER FOLDER. All I am trying to do is add the blasted entry to this folder. At the moment though it is adding the information to the default calendar and not ANOTHER FOLDER. I'm just testing at the moment but I have tried all manner of combination but no dice.
Code:
'Error 429 occurs with GetObject if Outlook is not running. On Error Resume Next Set objOutlook = GetObject(, "Outlook.Application") If Err.Number = 429 Then 'Outlook is NOT running.
I am trying to create a user friendly form to enter a list of competitors entering an event.
I would like the user to pick from a list of events and that event to be used for subsequent records until the user changes it.
I have used a combo box to pick from a list of events but that needs to re-selected for every new record. I then added a second unbound combo box to give the main combo box its default value. It works but is not very user friendly.
