Get File Info FROM Properties
Dec 4, 2005
Can anyone tell me a sample code on how to write/develope the Advance file properties like....
File version
Description
Internal Name
Product name
I have seen different types of files properties some has additional features while some has none - its just click once on any file and then click the right hand side mouse button and select the properties that will display all the information about the files click on second tab version (if there) will tell you the additional info about the file.

I have a list of files which contain the full path of the file (dir & filename), how can I get the extended properties for these files?
I try to use the script
Dim arrHeaders(35)
dim sFolder as string
sfolder = "C:Scripts"
Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
Set objFolder = objShell.Namespace(sfolder ) 'objFolder = nothing even after the object is set.
It does work; however, if I were to hard-code the path in the NameSpace("c:Scripts")
For i = 0 to 34
arrHeaders(i) = objFolder.GetDetailsOf(objFolder.Items, i)Next
For Each strFileName in objFolder.Items
For i = 0 to 34
msgbox objFolder.GetDetailsOf(strFileName, i)
Next
Next
Any thoughts on this?
Thanks.

Is there a way to write the properties of a table out to a text file or excel sheet?
I'd like to be able to get the Field Name, Data Type, Field Size, and format for each field in my table.
Thanks,

I have some code that checks if a file exists, its file size, creation date and date modified. The code works fine..however..
I need to import the file it is checking and that file can sometimes take up to 30 minutes to complete its posting. In fact I used the code to check it the other day and the code showed that it exists, its creation/modifed date and also its file size - however, the file size was what it was at that moment I ran the code. If I immediately re-run the code, the file size changes - obviously due to the fact that the file is still posting (and growing due to the date being posted to it). Also note that the (completed) file size will vary each day the file is posted
So, what I would like to know is, is their a way to check to see if a file has completed posting? Something akin to .filecreated like .filecompleted (yes or no) type thing?
Here is the code:
Public Sub sub_chk_files2()
Dim obj_fs As Object
Dim obj_folder As Object
Dim obj_files As Object
Dim obj_f1 As Object
Dim db As DAO.Database
[Code] ...

I have a linked *.txt file and a qwery that returns the top 1 record from it. (The ideea is to check a value from one column of the file).Both the linked file/table and the query run corectly,I have a vba code on the on open of a form that is checking the query above mentioned (the form is on the Startup option of the database) and when I need to use the Dcount of the Query "
Code:
DCnt = DCount("Den_Fis", "Data_R_Mod_U$G9707014")
I get the "Runtime error 3625: the text file specification..." doesn't exist etc.I pres debug and test the query, I get the "Unknown Jet Error".I press Stop in the VBA and open the Qry - it shows what is was ment to show.I know the workaround is to make a maketable with the needed info and the Dcount on the local table, but it would add one query and one table to the database.

Hi, I would like to change the properties of either the column heads in a combo-box or the column names for tables. I don't think there's any way to adjust the column head properties, and I'm doubtful there's a way to change the column caption properties.
Some of my column titles are long, and I'd like to be able to word wrap them essentially. Anyone know if this is possible? Thanks.

Does a (the) .ldb file have to be closed for another user on a network (separate FE linked to network drive BE) to read/write info to a table? Or even select info from a table?

I need help on this, from what the best concept is, to what I need to look into using:
I store Quote data from phone calls into tblQuotes. There is a seperate table that holds much of the same information except that it is for actual orders called tblOrders.
As far as function goes, I have each working much the way I need it to except for one thing... If a sales person is on the phone with a customer with a quote already in the system, right now they re-enter the data into the Order table. Most times, the order is what was quoted, but maybe with a few small changes (so I will wnt to keep a historical record of the quote). How could I copy the contents of the quote recordset into the recordset for an order, where all the sales rep does from there is edit the quote to the actual order?
Would I use VBA or an update query that is executed via VAB? Honestly, I am unsure how to do this at all, I hope someone has seen this before and has a good suggestion...
Thank you.

I was doing my assignment with the table in access, and my sister came up to me and ask me “why it is important to check the properties of each field in a table before developing a form based on that table.” Can anyone help me and answer this, because I don’t know how to answer her question.:confused: :confused::confused:

Am sure this is an easy question but I'm missing something:
How in the heck are you supposed to get to the subform properties box. The only way I know is to click on the very thin border area surrounding the form and then try and right click your way to properties. There has to be an easier way. Usually I have to fight my way to the properties box as the area loses focus by the time I right click and I have to reselect and try and right click again...ARGH!

How could I implement a feature which determines if something is at least 7 days before a booking at a theatre, but no more than 2 months. For example, something like... If =Now() - 7 Then... Elseif =Now() Then...
I don't really know how to go about it.
Hirer Date is when the booking is to be held (e.g., 12/01/2006) and Booking ID is when it was booked over the phone. (121205/M = 12/12/05 in the Morning) If someone could help me I'd appreciate it greatly. :D

Hi everybody!
Is it possible to set the properties for an access database not to confirm the changes when running an update query. I have done it under tools/properties etc. but then I make it in access in general. I want it to apply on one singel access database.
Anyone?

Ok, Let's say I go into File->Database Properties from the "main" Access screen. This brings up a window with the title "<database name> Properties" where <database name> is the same as currentproject.name.
This window has several tabs including "Summary" and "Custom." It looks like this should be stuff that I can set and then reference from within my code.
My thought is that I can use the "Title" from the "Summary" screen as a variable for all of my msgbox titles. The other interesting one is "Project" on the "Custom" tab. It looks like this may be the same sort of thing.
I've found that the Access Help is absolutely useless - I'm about ready to take a shotgun to "Clippy." But as they say, a display is a terrible thing to waste <grin>. I've also found that it's getting harder and harder to find what I'm looking for in the MSDN library. There's so much stuff and they don't always file it in logical places.
Well, thanks for reading.. sorry for the rant. As usual, any help is appreciated!
Cheers!

I have a line chart built in Access. Is there anyway I can change the line colors like I can in Excel? The default fuschia, bright yellow, and bright blue are horrendous.

I have an Access database split into FE/BE. For the front end, each user has his own directory on the lan. The directory is named with the UserName.
I've created an installation program in Access. It basically installs the icon on the user's desktop using Environ("UserName"). It also installs an Excel file the program needs on the hard drive.
Here's the problem...Right now, the installation program grabs the shortcut off the lan and installs it, but that shortcut has one user's UserName hard coded as the target. That one piece of information needs to change for each person. Is there a way for the program to modify the target based on the username of the person running the installation program? Without this piece, I need to visit every user after he runs the installation program and modify the properties of the new icon to point to his specific directory.
Thanks for any help you can provide!!

I was hoping someone knows how to disable the ability for users to gain access to the properties window.
When viewing a form (or any object), one can usually right click, click on the corner of the form, or a few other actions and gain access to the properties option. If selected, the properties window is displayed with all the object's properties.
Is there a way to NOT allow the users to select this option? i.e. to disable this option from the menu list?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

I have been running 2003 on XP SP2 for some time but a couple of days ago I needed to do a 'detect and repair' on Word but without resoring defaults. When I opened Access, the Properties Window was back to its default (small) size and couldn't be resized. An uninstall/reinstall made no difference.
Has anybody got any idea what might have happened and what I can do to put it right? I usually have it the height of the screen and this is driving me nuts!

I created and new field and made the source "Unbound" so that it is not connected to the field I copied it from. How do I now make that the information I enter in the new field does not duplicate in all of the similar fields in other entries.
Specifically, my database is a database of employees and the field Title is "Active". If I enter "Yes" by one employee entry, all employee entries will then state "Yes" by the Active field.
How can I change the properties so that by some employees I can write "Yes" and by others I can enter "No".
I am not so familiar with Access so if you can be specific I would greatly appreciate it.
