Adding Tables and Forms to an Application

I have a switchboard form with 7 command buttons. My database is split
with tables BP-99 thru BP-07 in Building.mdb and Forms, reports, etc
are in Building_be.mdb .Code is written with Access 2000.Clicking a
button captioned 2007 executes the following code and opens the BP-07
table for editing:
_______________ _______________ _______________ _______________
Private Sub btn2007_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_btn2007_Cli ck

Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String

stDocName = "BP-07"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria

Exit_btn2007_Cl ick:
Exit Sub

Err_btn2007_Cli ck:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_btn2007_Cl ick

End Sub
_______________ _______________ _______________ _______________ __

When I add and click a new button captioned 2008, the following code
executes:

_______________ _______________ _______________ _______________ _______________ __
Private Sub Btn2008_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Btn2008_Cli ck

Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String

stDocName = "BP-08"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria

Exit_Btn2008_Cl ick:
Exit Sub

Err_Btn2008_Cli ck:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Btn2008_Cl ick

End Sub
_______________ _______________ _______________ _______________ _______________ _________

Before clicking the new button, I have copied the table BP-07,
structure only, to a new
table BP-08 in Building.mdb. Copied a form for opening BP-08, changed
the Record Source to BP-08 and relinked the tables in Building_be.mdb .
Now when I click button BP-08 it opens
the table for BP-07. Even if I copy any of the other table structures
to BP-08. Clicking the BP-08 button still opens the BP-07 table.
Any help would be appreciated. I wrote the application 2.5 years ago
and have not used Access since then. All that I am asked to do now is
to all tables, forms and buttons for
BP-08 thru BP-16. This is a single user application not on a network.

Forget it! I found that I was copying the linked table instead of using
File;Get External Data and clicking on the true table. Also I reversed
the names of Building.mdb and Building_be.mdb in my original post. True
tables are in Building_be.mdb not in Building.mdb. Hope no one has
wasted time on my first post.

Hi all, I am new to .NET and the way XML data is handled in .NET I wrote a small application with .NET forms in C++ The application reads data from an XML file to fill-in the fields of the form.

Hello All, I have these tables (lets call it ‘EmpCalls', ‘EmpOrders', and ‘Stats') that each contain the list of EmployeeIDs, I want to be able to create a Module in which I could call in my VB form (by clicking and command button)that will add a column (field) to each table and label it with the current date that is specified in my form. Does anyone know how I can go about doing this? Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

I don't know whats the problem, but after I added functions to first verify, then relink linked tables if not found, now I can't convert that database to MDE format. I can split the database, but can't convert part of the database with forms, reports, queries to MDE format. Can somebody advice on this? References, in the order, from the top:

I have a split front end/back end system. However I create a number of local tables to carry out certain operations. There is a tendency for the front end to bloat so I have set 'compact on close' I think that I have read in some threads (althoug I cannot find them now) that others place such tables in a local, linked database. I could do this but I am interested to know what would be the advantages. And disadvantages, if any. Any...

I have zero experience with ODBC. If I have an Access frontend connected to a SQL Database using ODBC, are the tables connected like a frontend/backend Access database where the the tables you see in the frontend are only "copies" of the tables in the backend? Or ar the tables "real" tables connected to the SQL tables in some manner? If the latter, can an Access table have more fields than the SQL table it is linked to? The reason for my...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: 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,...
