  • 1. Simple Insert statement
    i am new at access and need help with what i think should be a simple insert statement. i have a master form with a subform in it. the master form has a number field called RecipeId and RecipeName. the RecipeId field is not displayed but it was retrieved by the sql. the subform has a field called Ingredient and a non-displayed field called IngredientId. it actual displays all the Ingredient values in the tbl. when i double click the Ingredient field i want to insert a row into a relationship table with the values of RecipeId and the IngredientId whose Ingredient was double clicked. in the subform when i double click an Ingredient i start event "Double Click" which runs this sql: INSERT INTO RecipeIngredients(IngredientId, RecipeId) values( select IngredientId from Ingredients where Ingredient=[Forms]![subForm]![Ingredient], [Forms]![Master]![RecipeId]) I get a syntax error. any ideas what is wrong? Note if i hard code the values section it will insert into RecipeIngredients the values which were hard coded. therefore my problem is somewhere in the Values section of the sql. -- thanks brian

  • 3. Printing a Word document
    Please could you help I am creating a database and I have a lot of word documents which i need to print. Currently a have done this using a link which works fine but obviously takes time as it has to load word then the document then the operator has to print it. Is there a better way, all i need to do is print the document, I dont want to recreate the document within access as it not that sort of record. Is there better options, like saving the document in a differant format which could be displayed within access. I may be talking rubbish Thanks for reading
  • 4. Time dimension is short-changed
    The source data for my pivot table is an access table with approx. 30,000 records. The date field contains approx. 1600 instances. When I add the date field to a pivot table dimension, approx. one-half of the dates are not displayed. Consequently, much of the data is not available in the pivot table view. Is there a property setting to overcome this limitation? Thanks in advance.

I upgraded to MS Office 2003 and now when I load my mdb files I get an 
annoying message about unsafe expressions.

I am current on all my updates.

How do I turn this off?

Change your macro security setting:
    Tools | Macro | Security | Low

If you do not see that menu option, right-click the toolbar area, customize, 
and reset the Menu Bar. For more information, see:

1.How do I turn off prompts for security warnings in Access 2003 

Each time I load my database in Access 2003 I am prompted for : 1)  unsafe
expressions and 2) upgrade to Jet SP 8.0.

How can I turn these off?

2.2003 Security Warning won't turn off UPDATE 

The software was installed by the Administrator. At the Administrator level 
the software does show on the menu \Tools\Macro\Security and it is set to 
Low.

However when I sign-on as user and open the database, I still get the 
message about unsafe expressions. The Tools\Macro portion of thge menu 
apppears but Security doesn't show - not at all, not even grayed out. 
According to Microsoft:
How to disable sandbox mode
Follow these steps to disable sandbox mode:


  1.. On the Tools menu, point to Macro, and then click Security.
  2.. Click the Security Level tab, and then click Low.
  3.. Click OK.
  4.. Restart Access.
Note  At this security level, macros are always enabled when you open files.

Note  Disabling the sandbox mode setting applies to all users of the 
computer.

So since the Administrator set the level to Low and it is supposed to apply 
to all users, why am I still getting this message?

3.2003 Security Warning won't turn off 

I just upgraded to 2003. I have tried to set the macro security to low as I 
have a batch file that runs in the morning. The batch opens an MDB with an 
AutoExec and updates an MDB for general use.

I keep getting the "Security Warning" in 2003 and this prevents the batch 
file from completing until I intervene and hit the "Open" button. I have 
tried to folow the prescribed metod of Tools\Macro\Security to set it to low 
to prevent this problem. BUT I go to Tools, select Macro , but I can't 
select Security because it isn't there. It is for all the other 
applications - just not in Access.

Any help would be appreciated.

4.Ofer - turn off the Access Security Warning 

With reference to one of your postings...

---------------------------------------------------------------

And a very interesting work-around presented by TC:
IMO the best way is to start the database via a script file which sets
the macro security level to low for that single invocation of Access.
This does not require a certificate, or a registry change, and it does
not affect any other database(s) - just the one being started by that
script.
Eg. in VBScript:
dim o
set o=createobject ("Access.Application")
o.automationsecurity=1  ' set macro security LOW.
o.opencurrentdatabase "full path to your database"
o.usercontrol=true
   set o=nothing

---------------------------------------------------------------

I not sure if I did it right but I created a .vbs file this the code you 
described but when I double-click the vbs file I get Error ActiveX component 
can't create object: 'Access.Application', Code:800A01AD


I have the A2k3 runtime installed on the machine I try this on.


How exactly is it to be done?


Thanks

5.Turn off warnings in Access 2003 runtime 

Hi
    The MSDN people have refused to send me the Windows Component Update for
Office XP Developer, or let me download it. So I've moved onto Office 2003
and left the database in Access 2000 format. However, I get the warning
everytime "file may not be safe", then the user must click Open or Cancel.
If they had the full version of Access, I could select Tools/Macro/Security
and set it to low. How can I get around this on machines with only the
runtime version?
    Also, some PCs get the warning about unsafe expresssions, even after
I've installed Jet 8. Any ideas on this?
Thanks
Diarmuid
