field chooser: deleting fieldsI created new fields in several non-user-field columns (such as Contact
fields). But now I can't delete them and I have too many with the same name
that don't work. The "delete" button for fields in the Field Chooser is only
working with the User Fields. I have scoured the web and Help resources.
Nothing. Does anyone know how to delete fields from Field Chooser? Do the
fields actually "live" somewhere on the computer?

Did you create them in a view or on a custom form?

Refreshing Form with Multiple Forms and FieldsI have a main screen form that allows entry to start from that location. It
has four subforms and some other fields that are picked from other locations
to filter the record. My challenge is it does not Refresh right away. I
have tried putting Refresh and Repaint etc in the main form code but it still
doesn't refresh. I put a Refresh button on it and that works but it's slow.
Can anyone tell me what would be a more efficient method to get this screen
to refresh right away.
Thank you,

year conversion in date fields eg 1900 to 2000I moved a existing database from foxpro to access 2000.
The dates in foxpro had a 2 digit year and when brought in
to access it converted them to 1900 (eg. 11/12/00 to
11/12/1900 instead of 11/12/2000). Is there a way in
access to convert (replace) only the year of vaious dates
to another year. If this is not possible is there a way to
prevent this while converting?
thanks alex
An update query can work for this.
Something like this:
UPDATE TableName SET [DateFieldName] =
DateAdd("yyyy", 100, [DateFieldName])
WHERE Year([DateFieldName]) = 1900;

Multiple Records 1 FieldI need to create a report where I consolidate multiple records from 1 table
and join them to 1 record in another. The problem is, I need them to all be
joined into 1 record.
tblStudents (Name, LocID, Grade) - Single record per student
tblMods-Math (ModID, LocID, Mod) - Multiple mods for 1 kiddos is normal
Finished product needs to be

Populate empty fields with a numberI have a a column which has 3 possibilites, 1,2 or 3. I have already
populated fields with either a 1 or 2 based on another query. I wish to
populate the remainder of fields which have no content with 3.
I have tried to write the query as UPDATE dbase SET dbase.[field] = 3 WHERE
dbase.[field] <> 1 AND <> 2. But this doesn't work, and have tried UPDATE
dbase SET dbase.[field] = 3 WHERE dbase.[field] = "", and this doesn't work
either. Data type mismatch occurs on last query.
Any help would be great?

CC field not visible in public folderGreetings,
I have set up many mail-enabled Public Folders, to which our domain users

If an internal user (w/ an AD account) CC's the public folder, the message
appears in the public folder with the important header elements (from:, to:,
CC:, etc). However, if an external email address sends a message, it appears
in the public folder with ONLY the From field. Viewers of this public
message can not see who else was CC'd.

PDOI: Image display.I hope to be able to display an image. I've looked at and tried to
apply sample code from a number of sources, including Sam's _Teach

etc.
I would like to set up an array as follows
data[0] = 0;
data[1] = 0;
data[2] = 255;
to draw a red square, rect, or triangle. Once I see I can control
pixel values, invoke the CBitmap class and control the display of the
pixels, I'll worry about the code that reads the image file to be
displayed.
Can someone point me in the right direction.

Split a street address field apart.How do I split a street address field apart? Field will have 2-3-4-5
digits, followed by a space then a series of alphas. i.e. 837 Third
Avenue -or- 6 Street West.
In a column of these address fields, wish to create two fields: the 2-5
numericals only in one, and the remaining alphas in another.
Not VBA-oriented, please, what might be the best, and simplest for my mind,
way to achieve this?

Do not change the field in the table but in your form use a list box.

How to use custom field in email viewHi all,

Hi Amy
Using the Window_AfterOpen event, you will need to use RetrieveGlobals to
obtain the login credentials, then ADO to open a connection to the SQL server.
You close the connection on the Window_AfterClose event.
Then on the Before_LinePopulate event on the Grid form, you perform the
actual SQL query.
I have an example you can have ...

Formview update fieldsI have a formview that uses an ObjectDataSource. If I place a field on

I thought that the fields that are included in the update statement

EXACT same fields on a gridview the update is successful.
Also is there any way of tracing the database execution so I can view
all the statements going to the database?
