Save New Record from Form
I have a form that opens with information already in filled into all of the text boxes. The information is either from another form or defaulted into the text boxes. Example: The "AcctNum" is from the "NewAcct" Form. The "ReqDate" is default "Date()". The "Status" Field is defaulted as "UnderReview". This information only needs to be reviewed and then the form closed. With this in mind all textboxes are locked. When the form is closed, I want a new record saved in the table that the form references which would be "AccountStatus". Problem: If the date is entered manually I can create the record. With all the textboxes locked I cannot do this. I have tried the "On Close" acCmdSaveRecord but it does not create the record in the table. I do not recieve any errors, but the record does not exist. -- Rick

How does the AcctNum get the value from the NewAcct form? Is it picked up
by a default value expression? If it were assigned by code, the record
would be dirty and the simple act of closing the form ought to save the
record automatically. If the record isn't dirty, you can force it to become
dirty by assigning one of the controls' values to itself; e.g.,
Me.AcctNum = Me.AcctNum
The Close event is too late for this, though, as by that point the form has
already been unloaded. You could use the Unload event, I think.
Are you sure that the user is never going to have any choice about whether
the record is saved or not? If you code the Unload event to always save the
record, they're going to be stuck with that record, come hell or high water.
And if you're going to do that, you might as well create the record in the
table via an append query befor ever opening the form, and then just open
the form to display the record you already created.

Handling of savings accounts and 401k accounts in the budget
I noticed that Money treats money that I contribute to a 401k account or transfer to a savings account as an expense. Basically, the more I contribute, the worse my budget looks.

Save to unProtect a Document?
Our company has word documents that we use as templates on a fileserver.

Table to feed form instead of lenghty code?
Hello, I a database that is kind of like an Auction type deal. If a user enters their user ID and click the button, it will automatically display their chosen private ID (or Auction ID). What I want to know is, I have 80 people in my department and the code (only way I know how to do it) will become very long. Can I set up a table with the User ID and Private ID and when the button is clicked, have it read from the table and display the Private ID that way? Below is how I am going to do it if no alternative. Private Sub cmdStatusUpdate_Click() Me.NewBid.Locked = False ...

Save csv format to dbf format
I have a .csv file with 13 columns of data opened in excel. I make a few changes to a field and then want to save to .dbf format.
