Hello, I would like to select/filter at random 30 records out of an Access-table of 1500 records. I know the option "Top" which gives me the possibility to see the 30 first records of the table The problem is that this option is linked to the way of sorting the table. So you will always select from a very restraint part of the 1500 records. Is there a possibility * to select or sort at random in Access. Maybe there exists an

I'm working on testing a large application with Access 2007. It has been running under 2003 and XP with no obvious errors. However with 2007 many forms seem to have lost the ability to filter. When the form is loaded, the record source specifed, a filter applied, and filtering set to on, either no records are displayed, or ALL of the records displayed. Click on the "Toggle Filter" on the ribbon and voila, the resordset is displayed. ...

My company is in the process of upgrading everyone to Access 2007. Since my machine was upgraded I've been highly frustrated with an apparent random behaviour byAccess that I can't understand. It involves databases that I created in Access 2002 (i.e. *.mdb files). What happens is when I open a form that has the border style property set to 'Dialog', Access 2007 is correctly preserving the size of the form itself (i.e. if you look in the...

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.

I've made an Access 2007 database to store information about the lessonplans I have to make every schoolyear. I want to export the data form the table "Lesvoorbereiding" (Lessonplans in English) to Word using a readymade template (NLD-LV1.dotx). All works well except for the multivalued fields 'Lesuur' (Lessonhour) and 'Werkvormen' (Used activities) and the field 'Lesverloop' (Lessonflow?), i.e. a field where you can link to documents, etc. on...

Hi, Short version: trying to export more than 65K of data from Access 2007 into Excel 2007 (important) through VBA. Access gives me 65K row limitation error, though I thought that was no longer an issue in Access/Excel 2007. Any hope? Long story: I have several databases with 400+ queries that I export into a folder as Excel files (with VBA). I then have some Excel macros that run through all the exported files and format them into...

Hello, Can anyone help me figure out how to show/hide fields based on information entered in other fields in a form in Access 2007?

The other Yes/No fields that do not apply to the chosen selection remain hidden. I need to be able to do this for all the...

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,...
