Hello,
I am currently using Access 2007 on an XP laptop. I have a table and a form used to add records to the table.
I have noticed that if I close the form without filling out all of the information in the form, the form data is still written to the table as a record. Since the person using this form may have to unexpectedly close the form, how can I disable this functionality? I do not want incomplete records being saved to the table.
Thanks!
3  7827 
I always go into Design View for the form, under Properties - Format set Close Button to No, then put my own close button on the form. Then use spmething like this: - Private Sub CloseFormButton_Click()
-
If Me.Dirty Then
-
resp = MsgBox("Do You Wish to Save The Last Record Added?", vbYesNo, "Save New/Edited Record?")
-
If resp = vbNo Then
-
Me.Undo
-
Else
-
Me.Dirty = False
-
End If
-
End If
-
DoCmd.Close
-
End Sub
This way Accesss will check the record to see if it's Dirty, then give the user the option to either save or discard the new record.. You should also be aware that at times, if a required field is not filled in, Accesss will Exit and not Save the record!

Hello,
We are in the process of examining our current main application. We have to
do some major changes and, in the process, are questionning/validating the
use of MS Access as front-end. The application is relatively big: around 200
tables, 200 forms and sub-forms, 150 queries and 150 repports, 5GB of data
(SQL Server 2000), 40 users.
I'm wondering what are the disadvantages of using Access as front-end? Other

Hi !! I'm about to develop a new project for a client.
Should I go about it in Access 2003 or 2007 ? Purchasing it either
for me or for my client is not a major consideration here ... what I'd
like to know is the stability, speed & ease of use of both the
products.
I believe Access 2007 has a new file format too and that it may be
slower.

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.
