read only form allows date to change
I have a form that I open in read only that has a calendar popup for the date
fields. When I open the form the calendar pop up allows the date to be
changed. The rest of the fields are read only. Any suggestions. Thanks

Perhaps you could refuse to open the calendar (or refuse to write the date back), if the form is read-only or the control is not visible/enabled. Testing the Visible/Enabled properties of Screen.ActiveControl is easy enough. What's more challenging is determining the form that the control is on (particularly if it is in an option group, on a tab control, in a subform, etc.) Then you still have to test for all the factors that could make that form read-only, e.g. AllowEdits (but AllowAdditions if at NewRecord), RecordsetType, whether the source query is read-only (and in some cases, some fields in a query are while others are not), user's permissions (security), read-only status of database, etc. -- Allen Browne - Microsoft MVP.

Sue, if you want to follow up on this, I've never had much success with
trying to work with Screen.ActiveControl.Form, so here's a routine that will
let you get a reference to the form that the active control is on.
You could use it like this:
With FormOf(Screen.ActiveControl)
Debug.Print .Name & " permits changes = ";
If .NewRecord Then
Debug.Print .AllowAdditions
Else
Debug.Print .AllowEdits
End If
End With
Public Function FormOf(varControl As Variant) As Form
On Error GoTo Err_Handler
'Purpose: Return a reference to the form the control is on.
'Argument: The control whose form you seek.
'Return: Form variable, or Nothing on error.
Dim obj As Object
If IsObject(varControl) Then
Set obj = varControl
Do While Not TypeOf obj Is Form
Set obj = obj.Parent
Loop
If TypeOf obj Is Form Then
Set FormOf = obj
End If
End If
Exit_Handler:
Set obj = Nothing
Exit Function
Err_Handler:
Select Case Err.Number
Case 91, 2450 To 2452, 2459 'Object not set, invalid form/report/view,
No parent.
'do nothing
Case Else
MsgBox "Error " & Err.Number & ": " & Err.Description,
vbExclamation, "FormOf()"
End Select
Resume Exit_Handler
End Function

Date format #16

Date format #16
I want to format a column of cells so that when 012208 is entered with the numeric keypad, 01/22/2008 appears in the cell. So far, I'm getting 6/3/1933. Thanks, Cathy Hate to say it but why not just type the extra two characters to make it 1/22/08? If you type "12208" in a cell, Excel assumes you are entering a serial date (hence the conversion to 6/3/1933). How much easier to just type the two "/" and don't force Excel to guess what you want.

Set a date as a constant to work back from to show only weekdays #2
I would like to input one date as a constant and then apply a formaula in other cells relating to this date to calculate back from but to "round" back to only weekdays. For example if i type in a date of February 1st 2006 (a Wednesday) and would like to calculate backwards automatically by eleven days it is Sat Jan 21st 2006. I would like this to round back to the nearest previous workday which would be the Friday.

remove white space without changing plot size
Now I know the white space can be removed by draging plot area but without changing the size of plot I like to remove the white space. Is that impossible ? Not impossible, but it is hard to maintain the plot area size. You have to first make the outer chart area rectangle as small as you need, then make the plot area as large as you need. You'll probably have to cycle through resizing of the two rectangles a few times. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Peltier Technical Services Tutorials and Custom Solutions http://PeltierTech.com/ _______ pm wrote: > Now I know t...

Reading .wks file
Greetings...according to the Excel "help" file, as well as the file extension listing, I *should* be able to read an *.wks file, but Excel insists that it cannot. I am pretty sure the file was created in Microsoft Works. Is there a converter somewhere that I can download/install? Cheers - S2 Excel can read Works 2.0, not later. You have to save them in Works as excel files or Works 2.0 or get a commercial converter. -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "Skip Stocks" <anonymous@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:AFC110E0-641D-4D87-9464-B930CC41CF02@microsoft....

A DB table contains 2 fields, School_name and Unit_number (it is intended to track which Scout units draw from which schools) both fields are many to many relationships. A school may have many units drawing scouts from it and unit may draw from many school but no duplicates are allowd. So both unit_number and School_name are joint keys in the School-Unit Table. Each of these is linked to its own tables called Schools (Sch...
How to give other users read-only access to Calendar
I want to allow the group Everyone to have read-only access to a calendar in a certain mailbox. I can do this by granting the permission 'Full mailbox access' (under 'Mailbox rights', under 'Exchange Advanced', for the particular user). However this also allows people to to do everything (ie: they become read-write users). I notice that every mailbox in the system has 'Read permissions' granted to group Everyone. This does not allow other people to open items in the mailbox, but as I understand it, permits Exchange Server and Outlook to do shared meetin...

I set the archive date to a future date to force all items to be moved. unfortunately some items have a modified date of "none". These are left alone by the archive process.

If I press F5 I can select the range, then I click on the Edit Query icon . First it says "This query cannot be edited by the Query Wizard", I press OK. Then it says "Invalid object name "TheirSERVERNAME.odb.SVSLSITM, Statement(s) could not be prepared", which makes sense since their server is different then ours.

Problem with xy scatter with dates
I am trying to create an x-y scatter chart where both the x values and the y values are dates. I highlight the 2 adjacent columns of date data and click on Insert>Scatter. Instead of a scatter graph, I get a line chart with 2 lines (the two data columns). The x values on the graph are simply a count of the data points as in a line chart. If the 2 columns of data are not dates, I get the correct scatter chart, but not if the x-values are dates in which case I get a line chart. How can I get a scatter chart with both x-values and y-values as dates? You could select just the Y val...
