Viewing Bound Old Objects - Microsoft Access / VBA

N. Graves

Thanks for reading my request for help!

I have a Bound Object Frame that I have stored a Word Document. When
I double click to view the document it is very small and unreadable.
If I try to zoom it to 100% it reverts right back to a small image.
Tried to click and drag the edge to resize it that didn't work either.

When I open this form up on another PC it work fine....

What am I missing here... it there an option that I missed or a
tool... I'm beginning to hate Ole Object :(

Please Help!

Thanks

Bill thanks you for reading my question... Your right it is not a
pretty thing at all.

The reason:
I have a SQL Database and Web site that we keep up with On Call
information for many groups and we are a Service Company. I created
this database to immolate the Web but on the web we have Word
Documents too. I need the Access completely stand alone so Management
could download and have all the information incase we lost our
network.

Now can you help me? Oh please this one is kicking my butt.

I would still advise against it - too many embedded objects will bloat
the database exponentially and you are inviting corruptions. You could
try just storing a link to the location of the document and trigger a
shell event to open it in word. This is the path i would recommend. You
could create a procedure to download the word docs with the database
and links intact.

or you could use the ms word com library to interact with the word docs
and extract the text into a memo field or a series of text fields.
Using the lebans rich text editor you could even read and write
formatted text.

But the ole window was never neant to display word docs.

"I created this database to immolate the Web..." - N. Graves

Hmm... I think this is a rather interesting use for a database...

>From Dictionary.com

immolate \IM-uh-layt\, transitive verb:
1. To sacrifice; to offer in sacrifice; to kill as a sacrificial
victim.
2. To kill or destroy, often by fire.

"... but on the web we have Word Documents too." - N. Graves

Meh, they'll still burn ;)

Object lifetimes when bound to references

by: Matthias Kaeppler | last post by:

Hello, during a discussion on a C++ internet forum, some question came up regarding references and the lifetime of the objects they alias. I can't find any clear wording on that in the draft standard. Example 12.2 in the standard document illustrates that temporaries bound to references-to-const live as long as the reference does. But does it e.g. matter if the temporary was created in scope of a function body and has to outlive the...

How to get a unique id for bound methods?

by: Russell E. Owen | last post by:

I have several situations in my code where I want a unique identifier for a method of some object (I think this is called a bound method). I want this id to be both unique to that method and also stable (so I can regenerate it later if necessary). I thought the id function was the obvious choice, but it doesn't seem to work. The id of two different methods of the same object seems to be the same, and it may not be stable either. For...

listbox bound to arraylist no changing values when values in arraylist are added or deleted

I tried refreshing the listbox with no luck and, because it is already bound, I can't just delete the item directly from the listbox without an error (because it already has a datasource, you are not allowed to delete/add anything to the listbox directly).
