Hi
I have set up a subform in datasheet mode containing a second subform
also in datasheet mode in order to be able to open it as a
subdatasheet.
In my application I make the first subform appear and disappear using
the Visible property. If I make it visible (in code), open the
subdatasheet (via mouse) and click anywhere on the subdatasheet, then
make it invisible (in code) I get the infamous error 2165 'You can't
hide a control that has the focus'.
If I click back on the top level datasheet record first, this doesn't
happen however anything I try in code to before making the first
subform invisible seems to fail to avoid the possibility of this error
arising, including setting the focus to a control on the first subform,
locking and disabling all controls on the second subform and the second
subform itself. Nothing now happens if I click on the second subform,
but I still get this error if I now make the first subform invisible
before clicking on a control on the first subform.
I'm using Access 2002 FYI. Any ideas?

Ideas:
You could debug this item by grabbing me.ActiveContro l immediately prior to
the statement that is trying to hide the control.
You can also set the focus on a control that will remain visible immediately
prior to the statement that is trying to hide the control.
Good luck

Hi Curt
Hey thanks I tried setting the focus to a control on the first subform
that I was making invisible but this didn't work but when I set the
focus to a control outside the 2 subforms, that worked fine!
cheers

I have created function to check date and time. at the time of
execution, if date is left empty the function returns the error
message but then the focus goes to next field. Next filed is for time
and there is also a check on that. If time is empty return error

focus to date field, again error message and focus goes to time and
this story goes on and on, untill...

Hi.
I'm having terrible trouble with a form that displays several
parent/child relationships at one time. It is a sales force hierarchy
- Sales force, district, territory, sales rep are the tables linked in
parent/child relationships.
I'm using a form to choose the main-parent and then several subforms
in datasheet view.

I'm trying to get a subdataSheet embedded on a form which will be displayed
in datasheet view.
I setup the 'record source' for the form to a query on a table. I go into
the query properties and setup a subdatasheet. I test this and it works. I
close the query builder - get prompted to save - reply yes. I reopen the
'record source' and the subdatasheet setting are gone.
Any ideas?

Hi
I have created a form which contains a subform.
To cut a long story short, I have created a macro that moves the focus to
the subform (GoToControl) and sets a value (SetValue) in the field on the
subform that recieves the focus.
The basic steps of the macro are:

Dear reader,
On the event "Lost focus" I make the ComboBox invisible but the massage pops
up
"You can't hide a control that has the focus." But this code is written in
the "Lost focus" event so the combobox has not longer the focus regarding
this event.

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.
Here is my compilation command:

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,...
