Could someone please tell me is there a simple way to refresh a table open
in standard table view, without having to either close and re-open, or open
in design than back to datasheet view.
Many thanks.

Does Refresh on the Records menu do what you want?

No. Records refresh does not do the job.
I still have to re-open the table to see its current state.
Its a pain when testing code, since I've gotta close and open the
table/tables each time to see any updates/changes to the records. Even
queries have the run button to do exactly this for queries.
There must be something Im missing.
Thanks

Another problem with the close open approach, is the re-opened table is back
to its default size.

In that case, instead of opening the table, could you add the table to a
temporary query. Add the * field to the query to show all fields and refresh
the query as you've indicated.
As for the second item you mentioned, if I close a table after changing the
visible layout, I get prompted to save the changes. If I answer yes, then
the next time I open the table, the changes to column widths, etc are there.
This may not help with the window size though.

Thanks Wayne,
You are absolutely right as I indicated in my last post, creating a query
for all my tables would do the job.
But then if I make adjustments to the table, I've gotta re-do the query. I'm
looking for simplicity not complexity.
And on the second point you are right again, it does not help me with the
window size. At design time it makes sense to have multiple objects visible
on the desktop. so covering it all up with a table window, of which maybe
only a very small portion contains data is the real problem.
If there's not a way of doing this, then I believe its an oversight on
Microsoft's behalf. Unles there's some logical reason why it can't be done
like this.
I'd be interested in how other developers get over this.

Redoing the query was why I recommended the "*" field instead of inserting
each of the fields into the query. If you add or remove field to/from the
table, the changes will show in the query.
Example:
SELECT Table1.*
FROM Table1;

PS. While the * does allow the changes to the table to show through, while
the query is open, you may not be able to make changes to the table, so this
really doesn't get you any where. Sorry.

PPS, but odds are, depending on the changes you're trying to make, you can't
make the changes while the table is open either, let alone see them.

Hi,
I've been working a lot with MySQL for quite a while and now I'm trying to
get into PostgreSQL.
One problem that I still have and could not find an answer is how to get the
declaration of a table, view and so on. In MySQL I do it with 'show create
table', 'show create view' and so on, or by 'explain '. Is there
an equivalent in PostgreSQL? Maybe in information_schema? How do I access
information_schema in PostgreSQL?

Hi,
Hoping someone can help. I have created a pivot table and launch it via a
command button. Unfortunately, it opens in form view and not in pivot table
view. I have opened the form in design view and set the default view to
pivot table but still no luck. I have searched Google but no help there
either. Any help/advice appreciated.

Ok. I upgraded to MS Access 2003 recently and now I am having great
heartache.
In Access 2002, when I opened a table to view the data, there were
wonderful little "plus" signs that I could click on for each record
that would open up the corresponding record in any linked table. I
could drill down and edit/add records in a most efficient and simple
manner.
In Access 2003, this is GONE! ARGHH!
