Has anybody out there incorporated credit card processing into VBA code?

15 New Member
Some credit card companies offer server side ActiveX controls for the processing of credit card applications and claim that their libraries work in any language that supports ActiveX controls, but I have not been able to make them work succesfully in Microsoft Access code. Has anybody out there been down this road?

If a specific approach is needed please see:

I am attempting to incorporate their sdk into my Access application.

In the circumstances a link to the specific technical page may be allowed. A simple link to someone's website home page is likely to be regarded as spam - especially by a relatively recent member. I found nothing there that could be related to the question.

The problem will be the "server side" part of the ActiveX controls.
Access is no server oriented application and most Service Providers won't install Access orother Microsoft Office applications on a server....

I did however succeed once in running web services from Access (Check out http://www.databasejournal.com/featu...le.php/3567511) and that's one way to cope with it.
Another might be to embed a web browser in a form and navigate to a page where you have the needed control (e.g. in php, asp or .net) available.

A friend of mine has a problem with his credit card validation routine and it is probably a simple thing to solve but I cannot find it. It has to do with the expiry dates. What happens is that as each month passes, that month is then not recognised as being valid, even though the year makes it still valid. i.e. the number of the month entered has to be bigger than the number of the current month. Therefor, if it is in august now 09/2005...

Hi, I am a developer quite familiar with the C# language and .NET framework. I develop mainly data driven websites.

I've built an online reservation website in ASP .NET with a SQL Server backend. It allows customers to search for available resources, than charges their credit card a fee to hold the reservation.

I'm setting up credit card payment through authorize.net and they have the option to send a POST string back to my site once complete. I'm not sure how to proceed. They don't have much to read about this, their tech support seemed to think I've got the general idea though & said I might have have my hosting server set up permissions to recieve POST data that way.

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,...
