For the first time, I am trying to program python in a windows-environment,
and now I am having some trouble with combining python and MS Access...
This is what I want to do:
A MS Access database is started, this database has numerous VB-forms, and
one of those forms calls my python-program, so far so good. But before my
python-program quits, I want to call one of the VB-forms in the database.
This I haven't been able to find out how to do.
The database cannot be closed, it has to run all the time while my
python-program is working.
So, if anyone can help me with this, I'll be very happy!

Do you mean you need to DISPLAY an Access form, or do you mean you need to
call a function in the associated code module?
The first can be done, by using the Access object model. The second is
more difficult. Access code modules are not COM objects, so you cannot
call directly into them from outside of Access.
However, through the object model, you should be able to use DoCmd, and
that lets you call a macro or a public function.
The Access object model is discussed on Microsoft's web site.

First I need to describe a "commercial version" of my application that

Hello All,
This is my first time actually posting a question to this group.
Here is my situataion. I have an old access application that needs to
be updated so that multiple developers are able to work on the
program, be able to work in a disconnected mode. Meaning that a user
could take the database anywhere on his laptop and not require a
internet connection to use the system. Currently it is written in
MS-Access 97 and MS-Access...

With multiple access applications running how do you reference a
particular field on a particular form in a particular application from
a Word Document.
The code below retrieves the information I want when only one access
application is running but I need to collect the information from
database : Schedule.mdb
form : frmDataentry
field : txtAppid
when multiple applications are running.

What do I need to get (from Microsoft I assume) in order to distribute
stand alone Access applications to people who do not (and will not) have
Access installed on their systems?
I have heard about Run Time modules, but am unsure of what they are and
how they are obtained. Is there a cost associated with this?

Can someone tell me a good (not too technical) manual or guide for developing Access

Hi all,
I'm looking for examples of off-the-shelf business to business (b2b)
access applications. The scope of my investigation is pretty broad so
any examples would be of a great deal of help. Run-time applications
would be super terrific but any will do. You can reach me at
benben999 at excite.com (at means @ :) ).
Thank you,

I have a database of Access tables on the server and ODBC links to
legacy systems.
This is not too much of a problem as, at least, I have my tables/files

Unfortunately as seperate applications are required, separate program

Some users have their desktops littered with short cuts pointing to
applications or parts of applications.
What I want is an all-encompassing menu system (with...

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.
