Hi,
Access 2002. I use DoCmd.OpenForm attached to command buttons to open one
form from another form. All forms are open in dialog mode. When a user tries
to open a form already opened from a form in dialog mode, nothing happens as
expected. I would like to inform the users that the form does not open
because it is already opened in the background. What event do you suggest
using for this? Thank you. P

There is no event, but you can check before calling DoCmd.OpenForm. In
Access 2000 or later, you can do it like this:
Dim strFormToOpen As String
strFormToOpen = "MyForm"
If CurrentProject. AllForms(strFor mName).IsLoaded Then
MsgBox "That form is already open."
Else
DoCmd.OpenForm strFormToOpen, WindowMode:=acD ialog
End If

Straight outta the help file....
CurrentProject. AllForms("frmGe tHostName").IsL oaded
returns either True or False. How much easier could it get?
So you could create a function or something...
public function IsFormLoaded(by val strFormName as String) as boolean
IsFormLoaded =CurrentProject .AllForms(strFo rmName).IsLoade d
End Function
If IsFormLoaded("M yForm") Then
...
Else
DoCmd.OpenForm strForm
End If

Hi everyone,
As some of you may know, we've been having trouble with an
unrecognized database format error.
Today I installed an unfinished project on the workstation of one of
my users. It's a query by form in which she enters the criteria of
the record she wants in an unbound form, and it pulls only that record
and switches to the entry form so she can enter data. I had noticed
it was faster than find or filter, so I offered it to...

Hi !
I have a Wep App in C#.
Page_Unload fires after Page_Load, and

In my project we wanted to use the Page_Unload - event to clean up the
Session variables, but

but it was far more complex then I needed. (I got lost trying to figure it all out). Therefore, here goes my simple "web dialog box with parent event handler fireing" solution.

Hi,
I have an asp.net web application which uses a pop-up form that works a bit
like a dialog box. when the user clicks "OK" it does a postback (basically a
form post if you don't know .net) to save the contents of the form, and then
I put an onload event to do a window.close.
this works fine for hundreds of people on different browsers. However, for
one user the window does not close.

I'm looking for a way to fire a public sub/function when a form is opened
and closed - without using form level events.
I have already done some extensive form work with instancing, looping
through the forms collection, bringing forms to the front with API via hWnd,
et.. and so on.
The problem is that users are loosing windows behind others and I thought I
would put a list together on an existing left handed menu of (i.e.) "My open...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
