For about a year I have been printing pdf files from Access 2000 using
the
ShellExecute Me.hWnd, "print", FileName, "", 0, SW_SHOWNORMAL
We normally print, from 1 to 100 engineering documents in this way.
Now I would like to intermingle (Collate) the pdf files with the
Access reports:
i.e. Access Report - pdf file - Access Report - pdf file
When I loop though the list of reports - pseudo code here:
For I = 1 to 10
stDocName = List(I)
DoCmd.OpenRepor t stDocName, acViewNormal
ShellExecute Me.hWnd, "print", stDocName , "", 0, SW_SHOWNORMAL
' Time delay
Next I
All of the Access reports print out before any of the pdf files.
I tried putting a time delay after the Shell command but no matter how
long the delay, the Access reports all print first. Again I would
like them to alternate.
Is there any way I can stall successive Access reports until the
pdf files have been queued?
Thanks,
Hank Reed

I've got an ACCESS 2000 application that I'm developing. One of the outputs
of this app will be to generate a series of 'jobs' which corresponds to a
record in the database. Each record will be printed on its own page which
I've set up as a report and that's working fine.
Accompanying each job is a Word (or Excel) document. Most jobs will have
Word (or Excel) documents unique to the record. I know how to establish a

Missing Help Files
When I enter "recordset" as the keyword and search the Visual Basic Help index,
I get many topics of interest in the resulting list. But there isn't any
information available from clicking on many of the available topics (mostly
methods but some properties are also unavailable). This same problem occurs
with many, if not most, keywords.
Is there any way I can activate these "missing" help topics? HELP!

Hello,
I have an Access 2000 database that I copied to a new computer with Access
2003. Access 2003 says the file is in Access 2000 file format. I made some
changes to the Access 2000 file code on the computer with Access 2003, and
compiled. I copied the file back to the Access 2000 machine and the file
runs, but the code is unviewable. Any ideas on why this happens?

This is the approach I used to automate printing of Microsoft Access

The technique uses Ghostscript and Redirection Port Monitor - two free

I've read that one method of repairing a misbehaving database is to
save all database objects as text and then rebuild them from the text

accomplish the first step:

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
