Newbie alert!
VB 2005 Express. One MDIParent form and one regular Form. The MDIParent has
the standard ToolStrip. The MDI Child Form has its own ToolStrip that is to
be merged onto the MDIParent's ToolStrip. Sounds simple, right?
I've gone through quite a few URLs that all pretty much say the same thing
but I have yet to get this completely working. (Most of those URLs also seem
to wander away from ToolStrip and instead go down the same illustration path
using MenuStrip. My problem is with ToolStrips, not MenuStrips.)
No problem with ToolStripManage r.Merge(sourceT oolStrip, targetToolStrip ),
other than the fact that no matter what I do with the ToolStripButton
MergeAction and MergeIndex I can't seem to get the buttons to merge in the
middle of the target.
Calling ToolStripManage r.RevertMerge(s ourceToolStrip, targetToolStrip ), on
the other hand, appears to have no effect.
In the MDI Child, the ToolStrip's AllowMerge and AllowItemReorde r are set to
True. The individual ToolStripButton s are all set to Insert (or Append -
I've tried it both ways) with unique MergeIndex values (let's say they're
values from 51-55).
The MDI Child's New() subroutine simply calls:
ToolStripManage r.Merge(Me.Tool Strip, MyParent.ToolSt rip)
No problems there (other than the merged button order that is - they always
get tacked on the end of the target).
The MDI Child's FormClosing() subroutine equally simply calls:
ToolStripManage r.RevertMerge(M e.ToolStrip, MyParent.ToolSt rip)
Unfortunately the merged result is still displayed.
In the MDIParent, the ToolStrip's AllowMerge and AllowItemReorde r properties
are also set to True. The individual ToolStripButton s are mostly default
(Append, -1) except for the last separator and Help buttons that have a
MergeIndex of 98 and 99 respectively.
The big question is how does one get merged ToolStrips unmerged?
The bonus question is how does one get ToolStripButton s to merge in the
middle of the target?

Doh! Finally figured that one out. Had to reverse the order of the
ToolStrips in the parameter list.
Still trying to figure out how to get the ToolStripButton s of the source to
merge in the middle of the target though. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Hi,
I am trying to merge data from two tables (over two servers, using
dblink). Approx 40,000 records in each. Server1(source) and
Server2(dest)
On Server1, db-link "dblink1" points to Server2
On Server2, db-link "dblink1" points to Server1
Schema names are same on the two servers.

I have a strange situation using Access to automate a Word mail merge. Using
Access 2000 and Word 2000, the code opens Word, opens the document in Word,
sets a table
in the calling Access application as the data source, and then performs a
merge. Everything works fine.
However, when a user uses it in Access 2002 and Word 2002, an extra instance
of the Access application is opened and remains open at the end. Sometimes

Help!!!
What am I doing wrong? I am working with Office 2003 and am trying to create a command button on an Access form that will create a mail merge in Word from an Access table.
I want to make the mail merge seamless to the user so all they have to do is click on the command button and the letters are generated.
For the button I created an event procedure with the following code:
Private Sub RunLetters_Click()

I'm having difficulty with a function and can't find what the problem is.
The code is below. Essentially, it works fine if the target table (tbl
variable in code) is empty, however if it contains rows prior to the method
being called, the error "'column' argument cannot be null" is thrown on the
tbl.merge line. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
''' <summary>Imports data from the table passed in.</summary>

Hello, I need to merge a small table (of rows less than 100,sometimes
even 0 rows) to a big table (of rows around 4 billion). I used the PK
of the big table as merge key but merge does a table scan so it runs
for ever.
I checked the table and PK statistics of the big table and it looks
good. Please let me know if I need to check for something else.
Here are more details

Hello!
First off, many many thanks to Albert who wrote the Mail Merge code for MS Access I am using. It has been working beautifully for a few years. However, my client just (without notice!) upgraded from Access 2000 to Access 2007. Now that component is failing.
The merge is building the data source file fine (text file named merge.888).
I am providing an absolute path reference to the word file being used for the mail merge. ...

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,...
