Tracking open files
I often leave files open for days and when I have 20-70 open at the same time I run out resources and one invariably locks up, especially a PowerPoint 2007 file. Is there a way that I can have one of my Access databases log all open files using a form's click event so that I can reopen them when the system crashes? This database is always running--can't work without it and so it is a logical place to store a listing of all my open files. Thanks for suggesting a place where I can start developing the code to do this. In addition to PPTX and DOCX, I usually keep a...

change the default opening of a form to enter a new record
How can you stop a form defaulting to record 1 when you want to type in a new record. The only way we are getting round this at the moment is to click on the icon New record. However, every time we open the form to enter another record it is always showing record 1 -- Thank you for reading my post. Hopefully you can answer my querie Shazza - Set the form property Data Entry to Yes. That will default to opening the form for new records. -- Daryl S "Shazza" wrote: > How can you stop a form defaulting to record 1 when you want to type in a new > r...

PC freezes when I open a file
I have a four-page document with a lot of URLs. Whenever I open it, my mouse cannot click anything for about two minutes, and the document itself remains frozen for five minutes. If it is only that one document, it suggests that it is partially corrupt. Not knowing which version of Word or OS you are using makes it difficult to give you options to sort it out, but try the Open and Repair function first. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "Mike Row Soft" <MikeRowSoft@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:72B470EE-B86F-4018-99B5-F5FCEB41BB34@microsoft.c...

PST files won't open
I have 3 PST files that were created by someone else. They are each less than 40MB and all have the correct .pst extention.

Opening a PivotChart from switchboard

Voiding Open Invoice with future dated invoice
I have some invoices that were posted with a date of 01-25-2018 How can this be voided Mark, In the first place, why is 2018 created as a fiscal period? Besides that, the course of action will depend on 2 things: a) If you've posted the invoice and have not applied any payments. Under this scenario, 1) if you have not posted the invoice in GL -- it's already posted in payables -- delete in the GL batch for the transaction(s). Now, void the payables invoice(s) and once again delete the batches in GL. 2) if you've posted in GL, just void the payables invoice and post to GL a...
