Hi, folks - I am trying to build a macro that Outputs a query to Excel,
then Auto Starts the Excel doc to show the query results.
I'd like Excel to be the top window when this is done, but my macro
always restores MS Access to the front when it finishes, hiding the new
Excel doc. I've tried ending my macro with "MinimizeAp p", but it simply
minimizes Access... then immediately restores it again, covering Excel.
Is there a way to force MS Access to stay minimized at the end of my
macro, so that the Excel doc remains on top until the user chooses to
select Access again manually?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Not sure as this is not something I have done, but could you write a macro
that selected a cell in the workbook, or something similar, that means the
window gets selected and is thus displayed on top?
Why not use Excel to get the data from the database?
See the Excel menu : Data, Import External Data.
Just design a query that gives you the data you want from the database and
then select it for importing.

I'm using a little javascript to help my site's design to fit the

Everything works great apart from one problem.
If a visitor first loads the page and the browser isn't maximised, the
page loads correctly BUT if the visitor then proceeds to maximize the
browser, the page is still set for the minimised browser. This condition
stays until the visitor goes to another section of the site or refreshes the...

First, I thank you Herfried.
I have 3 tabpages in a tabcontrol.
I would like to force the user to stay in the current tabpage until he
doesn't correctly fill some textboxes.
I know how to prevent bad entries but if I click onto another tabpage, I can
leave the current tabpage.
I try to use the select property but it doesn't work.
Any idea ?

is there anyway to force an event, like mouseover? I have a page that
loads, and due to some complex js code (not mine) it fails to write
labels to tabs until the user does a mouseover on the tabs. the page
load event happens beforre the tabs are loaded. Once the user
mouseovers the tabs, the labels of the tabs appear, and stay there. it
is irritating. i would like to force a mouseover so the tab names
appear.
thanks

When minimizing Visual Basic application, working memory is greatly reduced
from about 20 MB to only about 2 MB. However I want the application to
