Navigation buttons problem on one screen

I have an AccessXP(A2000 mode) customer who says on one form the navigation
buttons do nothing when he clicks on any of the 5 but the navigation buttons
work on other forms. In my copy of the database the navigation buttons work fine
in the problem form. I have confidence in what he is telling me! Because of
distance, I can not go on site. Does any one have any thoughts on this?

Thanks!

This is a pretty elementary suggestion, but if he has no data in the table
behind that form, the navigation buttons will do nothing.
Also if the RecordSource on his copy of the form has somehow been set to a
blank string...

For remote trouble-shooting, I've found the Remote Assistance and Remote
Desktop options in Windows XP to be very useful - for older OSs you might
need something more like PC Anywhere or LapLink.

A single form (i.e. no subforms) opening full screen, how can I get the navigation buttons (Access built in) to be higher than the bottom of the screen. It annoys the users - they go for the nav buttons and end up raising the taskbar, which is set to autohide. TIA, Mike MacSween

I am having some trouble with some old code revolving around custom form navigation buttons. My main form has a sub-form with these custom navigation buttons. In other words, the code should be modular and work across forms and sub-forms. My previous code was taken from the Access Expert Solutions 97 (Leszynski) many years ago. As my database became more complex with multiple sub-forms and intricate combo boxes, the code faltered. Some...

Hello I have a form to enter names and some other personal information. When a name is entered, it is checked against existing records: maybe, such name was entered before? If yes, user is notified and asked, would you like to see the previous record? If user answers yes, form on the screen is scrolled to the record with the same name. All works well, apart from number of record between navigation buttons: it is still the same number of...

Hello, I have a main form that is maximized when my application loads; this main form contains links to all other forms. I've had to specify the Popup property of these other forms, so that they are not maximized when they load. Unfortunately, this seems to have had the consequence of removing them from the Windows taskbar, which makes navigating between open forms more difficult. How would you developers deal with navigation between...

Hi All, When my users view a report the report is opened on their screen in Print Preview. In each report I have a customized ToolBar with navigation buttons to go to the Next Page or Previous Page for previewing. My users seem to prefer the buttons over the page control located at the bottom left of the reports.

hi guys. I'm trying to make a navigation menu with AS tweening. So far I have all 4 buttons and a graphic inside a movie clip named "logo_mc" with an instance name of "logo_mc". I have managed to AS tween the movment of the logo_mc clip with each of the 4 buttons and position the x & y of the "logo_mc" accordingly. Though if I press any of the other button the logo_mc ends up moving in places on screen where I don't want them to go. Here...

Hello and TIA for your consideration. I have created several db's for a non-profit and they want custom navigation buttons to display "You are on the first record, last record, etc". With this ng help I've created code for all except the add new record command button. If I create individual sub functions behind each form, no problem. The problem is I am trying to create a re-usable module.

Overview: 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,...
