Just tried out ControlTip Text on some command and toggle buttons. The text pops up on some but not on others and I cannot determine what the difference is (the properties are essentially the same except for name, caption etc). What buttons work and what do not seems random but if I copy/paste a button that works, the copy always seems to work.
Is there a way to make the text in a label smaller than size 8? I need to put some text on a form, but it's too large for the limited amount of space I have.
I have a text label that I would like to have vertical instead of horizontal. In the properties box, I go to the other tab and set 'Vertical' to yes and the text rotates. Except it rotates 90 degrees clockwise. (The text starts at the upper right corner and reads down, you have to tilt your head to the right to read it.) This seems the wrong direction to me and to my office mate - all the tables we've seen with vertical text has the text rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise (text starting from the lower left corner and reads up, you have to tilt you head to the left to read it.)
Is there any way I can make the text rotate counterclockwise instead of clockwise? I really don't want to create many little graphics.
Does anyone know how to create a text box inside of a label box in a report? I need to create a report that mirrors a memo format. In the report, I need to type a label ("Total score is __ out of __.") where the __ spaces are calculatedtext boxes based on a table. Thanks.
I have one field in my table "Id". Here I have inputed 16 digit number always. Can I print out every digit with different text box or label in my report?

I'm running Access 2003 and my question relates to delivery notes that are produced for drivers as reports. These delivery notes have a blank payment box for the driver to complete if the customer pays upon delivery.
As more and more customers are prepaying by credit cards, I'd like this payment box to be automatically filled with a "PAID" text which will let the driver know the order has already been paid for.
The delivery note is produced from an "Orders" table which has a "Paid" field whose value is automatically set to "Yes" when the order has been paid for.
I was hoping to be able to place a "PAID" label on the report which is only visible when the Paid field of the underlying query is Yes.
As things are at the moment I cannot see any way to put any conditional statement onto this Text/Label. The only options for the "Is Visible" property of the text are Yes or No.
I have globally defined 'Progress' as integerer and using the following code on my splash screen - i want to add a "." to the end of the label caption until progress = 10 (10 timer events)
Private Sub Form_Load() Progress = 0 End Sub
Code: Private Sub Form_Timer() Dim Dot As String Dot = "." Progress = Progress + 1 Me.lblProgress.Caption If Progress = 10 Then DoCmd.OpenForm "frmLogin" DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmSplash" End If End Sub
I have a report that displays on a continuous style report. What courses the employee have been on and when they expire
right I have field call expirydate and another call dayover showing the number of days till that course has expired also I have made a label called Expired1
now what I'm trying to do.....
if the expirydate has passed I want the expired1 label to be visible and dayover field to become invisible
I have tried
Code: Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) If Me.Expirydate < Date Then Me.expired1.Visible = True Me.DaysOver.Visible = False End If If Me.Expirydate > Date Then Me.expired1.Value = False Me.DaysOver.Value = True End If
I have also tried the code on current event on the report
now my problem if one of the course has expired it will show the label called Expired1 but on all the records but I only want it to display on the record that has expired and leave the daysover text box visible if course has not expired
I am attempting to use VBA code to make the label in my report hidden if the text box is blank. I am very new to coding, and am not sure how I would express this in code. I have been looking at a few examples of how to get this done, but it doesn't seem to work. Where to insert the code. Attached is the image of the properties for my label and text box that I want hidden if text field is blank. I al just lost trying to figure this out.
I have a report base on my table. Here a check box. I wanna show two label text hide/show base on when check is true or false. It will be when report will be open. I have try this but nothing is happened.

I have a text box in a form, in which users enter updates. I would like that text to become the caption on a label in a printable report. How would I write the VBA to do this?
How could i Filter Form by Value in TextBox? (when toggle button is pressed, Form show records filtered by texbox, when unpressed - shows all records.)
Say I have two bubbles (options,buttons, whatever you know them as) I want the system to be set up so that only one of the two can be "true" at a time. Say they are titled Option1, and Option2. What code would I put on them so only one can be "true" at a time. If Option1 was true, and then someone clicked on option2, I want it to cause option 1 to go false.
I'm trying to update this movie database, and I need something to save me time, not to mention my finger. One field in this db tracks if a movie is colour or black/white. In the old/existing db, that was done with text - "color" and "black & white". I want to replace that with a yes/no field [Color]. But the db has a few thousand entries. What I would like to do is either change all of the [Color] fields in the new db to yes, and then manually uncheck the ones that are b/w. But I guess it should also be possible to do the whole operation automatically. Any ideas as to how to accomplish either of these would be appreciated.
Hi all, I have a form with two subform on it and two toggle buttons. Clicking each toggle button will open one of subform, and clicking it again will close that subform. But the problem is that I need to click the toogle button two time to open the sub form. So, what is the problem??
This is the code under On Click event: Private Sub Toggle0_Click() If Me.TendComm_Label.Visible = False Then Me.TendComm_Label.Visible = True Me.TendComm.Visible = True Else Me.TendComm_Label.Visible = False Me.TendComm.Visible = False End If End Sub
Private Sub Toggle1_Click() If Me.AuthorizedSignature_Label.Visible = False Then Me.AuthorizedSignature_Label.Visible = True Me.AuthorizedSignature.Visible = True Else Me.AuthorizedSignature_Label.Visible = False Me.AuthorizedSignature.Visible = False End If End Sub
Hi. I have never used a toggle button on a form before, and have searched the previous threads, with this one (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=113115&highlight=toggle+button) being the most relevant I think.
I need a toggle button, so that when it is pressed, it runs one query, and when depressed, it runs another. Basically, it is used as a add/Delete button sort of thing....but the add is an append query and the delete is a delete query.
I can't seem to change the code in the above sample, can anyone help?
