How to have a parameter text file

6 New Member
Hi,

Is it possible to have a text file with parameters that msaccess should read on open?
Example: when openning my db, it loads a form that will show the invoices to pay in the next 3 days. I would like to have this number of days in a text file, and my querie should read it from there. Doing it this way, each user can choose the number of days that should be shown.
Thanks.

Seems like an extreme way of doing this! Why not simply have a utility table in your database to store this info? The user logs in and Access checks his logon against the records in the table and acts accordingly.

Dear Newsgroupers, The 'main' page contains a call to a function in an included file. This function puts a html-form on the screen. Before the form gets posted (to the 'main' page) some prior errorchecking is done. The form fields are then sent and an object is created (all in the same function). What I need ( imo ) is an array with objects that can be written later to a dbfile to preserve. But I cannot find a solution for the...

I've been going around and around on this one. I can't believe that it is "by design" as Microsoft says. Here's the situation: In *declarative* syntax, I'm trying to create a default datetime value for a SqlDataSource parameter. (I know how to insert this parameter in code. I want to use declarative markup.) Here's the declarative markup with ???????? indicating where I'm stumped.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
