Hi,
I need to access some components on my main form. I found out that making a
static public variable it is accessible. It has to be from several forms,
so I dont want to pass a reference of main form to all of them. Is thsi a
preferred way of coding ?
partial class Main: Form
{
static public Main MainForm;
public Main()
{
InitializeCompo nent();
MainForm = this;

Hi,
I don't know your context, but guess this would work.
Use the child form's MdiParent property to get the main form, and cast it to
the requried type to access the components.

Hi Experts!
I have several forms and reports where controls get their values with
'Forms!MainForm!Control' or 'Forms!MainForm!Subform!Control' resp
'Forms!MainForm!Subform.Form!Control' which works without any problem
in Acc97, 2000 and 2002, but now in Access 2003 there seem to be a
problem with this.
A user is working with my app, and he uses an Access 2002 MDE in an
Access 2003 environment.

Has anyone experienced the following problem following an Upsize from

loads up correctly and then I enter a ReferenceNumber value in a
MainForm field control. I then click on the first field of a SubForm,
the ReferenceNumber then shows at the top of the SubForm and...

Hi, I got a pass-through query (that takes about 15 mins to process)
I would like to integrate variables to it.
IE: something simple:
Select EmplID from empl_Lst
where empl_lst.timestamp between !! And

Not sure how to do so (should it be a query in Access or a macro)
The connection would be ODBC.

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.
