I have an access database form where I have a button that is supposed
to be appending the contents of 1 memo field to another is behaving
non-predictably. The code is:
Me![ToDo] = Me![ToDo] & Chr$(13) & Chr$(10) & Me![Studies1] &
Chr$(13) & Chr$(10) & Me![Studies2]
Me![Meds] = Me![MedsEntered] & Chr$(13) & Chr$(10) & Me![IVF] &
Chr$(13) & Chr$(10) & Me![Diet]
DoCmd.DoMenuIte m acFormBar, acRecordsMenu, acSaveRecord, ,
acMenuVer70
Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong? Could there be a casting problem?
(I just want to append the text of 1 field to another field - am I
actually assigning objects this way?)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have managed this in a report without the $ sign
e.g.
=[FirstName] & " " & [lastname] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & IIf([job title] Is Not
Null,[job title] & Chr(13) & Chr(10),"")
It does not use memo fields but I would think they would work OK?

What error are you getting?
Do the controls displaying the memo data have the same names as the
underlying memo fields that they display? If so, then you've got an
ambiguity that could cause a problem, since Access may be confused
about whether you are referring to the control or the field in the
record behind the form.

Also, you may want to change your Chr(10) & Chr(13) commands to just "
& vbCrLf " for Carriage Return and Line Feed.
I would have written it:
Me!ToDo = Me!ToDo & vbCrLf & Me!Studies1 & vbCrLf & Me!Studies2
Me!Meds = Me!MedsEntered & vbCrLf & Me!IVF & vbCrLf & Me!Diet
DoCmd.DoMenuIte m acFormBar, acRecordsMenu, acSaveRecord,, acMenuVer70

I'd replace the DoMenuItem with:
Me.Dirty = False
Menus are for people, not for code.

I want to create two buttons on a form. One would allow the user to
Copy the contents of the current records memo field, the other would

the resulting file 'Text.txt' has the same length than the string 'temp'.

Hi everyone,
I currently have an Access database that includes quite a few
long memo fields. When I create a report of my data, Access
does not allow the memo fields to be split with the page breaks.
In other words, if my memo field is 3 paragraphs long and there
is only space on a report page for 2 paragraphs, rather than
putting 2 paragraphs on one page and the last one on the next
page, all 3 paragraphs are moved to the next page...

This is mainly a speed question.
In this example: I have a QuotesHdr table that has a few memo fields. If

that the entire record comes down over...

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.
