Dear Access Programmers,
I can't seem to figure this out.
The text boxes that are used to input data via my form are
unbound, I want to restrict the user to only put input that
is one line.
Eg.
Input your surname., you shouldn't be able to press the
enter/return key after since it will take the user to the next
line and the infomation will dissapear in the form box since
its a new line, thus you would have to backup to get the
data back.
How can I limit the data entre to one liners ? is there a simply
way ?
******
Seconly, how come I can't seem to get my toolbox, field list
to show ? I enter the forms and press the design view, but
can't seem to have any other views ? Is there a special key
I can press or what?

There should be buttons on the Design View toolbar that will open up the
Toolbox and Properties sheet.
To prevent the Enter key, in the KeyDown event
If KeyCode = 13 Then KeyCode = 0

Any reason why your fields are unbound? (You like making work for
yourself?) You could set the field's length in the underlying
table... or I guess you could use the keypress event or something to
check the length of the entry and then set the keyascii value to zero
for every subsequent keypress in that field...

Whoa, wait a minute. If your form in UNBOUND, then of course you
can't get a list of fields. Think about it - the field list is a list
of fields that are in the recordsource for the form. And that
*necessarily* means that the form is bound. Yours isn't, so you have
no fields in your field list. You want fields listed? Bind your
form. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

I need to create different recordsets based on queries that use data from
unbound fields in a form. I've discovered that I can't do this, and instead
need to save the data in question (usually a text string) to a table.
I'm thinking the best way to do this is to use a Make Table query -- that
way the table stays small -- one row -- and there is less chance for
something to get overwritten.
But how to create a make table query from...

I have a bound form for employee evaluations. This form brings in the

evaluation info to be entered into. From my understanding these should
not be limited to a number of characters. All the information is
transferred to a word template. I do not want to store the evaluation
information as it is confidential and not necessary. The form works
great until the user enters more...

Hi,
I'm having a problem with a datagridview control when trying to read
the value of an unbound checkbox cell.
The code below works fine if I click on any text cell, bound or unbound,
and also if I click on a data bound checkbox cell.
But it fails with null reference exception if I try to read the value on an
unbound cell.

Hello!
I just wonder when is it necessary to use unbound datagrid. It's far simpler
to use databound datagrid by using the wizard.
Can you just point on some particularly example when an unbound datagrid
would be suitable.

I have an unbound combo box in the form header. I have used an input
mask "CCCC" 40 times to limit the max number of characters to 40.
When I tab into the combo box & press a character say "K" for example,
the entire first match gets filled in the combo box and the cursor
goes to the last character of the combo box. So I can't effectively
search for a "KI" until I backspace the entire entry which has got
filled in.

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.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
