  • 1. Pop Up or Shortcut Menu with a Start Group option - Access 2003
    I have a user develop popup toolbar (shortcut menu) and in which I keep losing the Start Group property. In order to customize the popup I have to change it to a Menu Bar or a Toolbar, make my changes and then change it back to a popup. I am guessing I am losing the group start when it converts back to a popup. Is the start group property no available for shortcut menus? Is there a way to do this programatically? Cmon! Who knows the Office command bars inside and out?

Can't display jpg in image control w/ Access 2003 runtime on XP machine w/o Office

Postby B Havens » Sat, 24 Sep 2005 05:41:21 GMT 

I developed an Access 2003 database (front-end/back-ends) and created a 
runtime (packaged). All is well when installing it on most machines, but I'm 
installing it on one machine with Windows XP SP1 which has *never* (user 
emphatic) had any MS Office products installed on it.

Part of the app is bringing up various .jpg files in an image control.

This user receives error:
"... doesn't support the format of the file..."

I have found numerous articles (and the www.lebans.com website) mentioning 
this issue with the solution being to download and install GID+DLL.zip... 
however, that file's instructions say *not* to install it on an XP system...

Help?

The Image control requires the relevant Graphics Filter to display jpeg, which is part of the full Office
setup.

Unfortunately, full Office setup is not going to happen on this machine (or 
any stand-alone Office product for that matter). I'm looking for a 
work-around.

Does anyone know anything about the 2003 Office Converter Pack?

 http://www.**--****.com/ 

Can this be installed on a machine without Office? Would it fix my issue?

Any help is appreciated

2.Access 2000 runtime install problem and Office XP ( without access xp) on same machine 

Hey all,
            I am having a problem installing Access 2000 runtime on a
machine. The machine has Office XP installed on it but it is the SBE version
which DOES NOT include a version of Access XP. When I try to install the
2000 runtime it will get about 1/2 - 3/4 of the way through and then just
sits there and will not finish. Does anyone have a idea about what is going
on or have a solution to this problem ?

Thanks in advance,

4.Can't view jpg images after XP reinstall 

I've had to reinstall XP (groan) and all my applications incl Access 97, 
Office 2000 and Access 2003. In doing so I believe I have installed all 
the graphics drivers, but my database (97) cannot display jpg images in 
an image control. It can manage bmp OK, but not jpg. Any suggestions?

Also, I used to be able to open a db in the correct version by right 
clicking in Explorer and selecting Open With .. then had the options of 
Acc 97, 2000, 2003. I not longer have these, and if I specify a 
particular file e.g. C:\Prog File\Office 2000\Office\MSAccess.exe, it 
still tries to open with the default - Acc 97. Any ideas on this?
