Hope I won't need to pester you any more - but don't bet on it. |
four people who I generally view as pesters. And they shall remain
nameless. The most recent one is famous for his four letter language
and has been seen as recent as a week ago.
In addition a wide variety of viewpoints and problems are discussed.
So I'm always learning something new although the rate these last few
years in Access has decreased for me.

However, I have a problem with understanding “without jumping through hoops”. |

I want to use a standard "Menu database" in all my applications that uses tables from a FE database (FeA) which has linked tables from BeA. Having clicked on an item in the menu, the menu should - I think - stay open, but then control passes back to a form in FeA. When that form closes, presumably the menu would still be visible. If I can get that right, I want to go further and have say a standard Backup database, again getting information via FeA but the backup form being initiated by clicking on the menu. How does your suggestion of Application.Run do this? |
describe, nor see any reason to do so, so really haven't a clue what
the issues are.
I wouldn't go with something so complicated precisely because it's
not the way Access was designed to work. Or, at least, work WELL.
Outside references are something that MUST be kept to a minimum to
insure the app runs in all environments. I would never sacrifice
that for the purpose you describe.

There's only four people who I generally view as pesters. And they shall remain nameless. |
Will everyone here remember that, when we use it in a sentence such as
"That's barely above the standards of The Nameless Four!"? <GRIN>

comedy called Corner Gas about a village in the middle of
Saskatchewan. With one bar, one grocery store, one gast station and
one cafe, etc, etc.
The locals in the bar, when the local rival village is named, all
rellexively spit on the floor. So we could accompany the mention of
the Nameless Four with at least the motion
(BTW the first of my nameless four the Access folks have never
encountered. He's famous in the Edmonton newsgroups though for being
homophobic, anti-semitic, racist and every other stereotype you can
think of. <shudder>)

I can think of four that the Access people _do_ know (though it appears that one of them has gone to the Great Trolling Ground in the Sky)... so I wasn't upset at your use of the number four. |
he was about 1% of the viciousness of the others.

Ah, you're including Steve. I'm not because while he was irritating he was about 1% of the viciousness of the others. |
wasn't for lack of trying or desire on his part, because he could be pretty
nasty at times -- he just was not as capable in the arena of viciousness.
Send me an e-mail with the "other" besides the Edmonton newsgroups, because
I obviously missed someone. <SMILE>

Over all, he was surely less vicious than the others, but I suspect it wasn't for lack of trying or desire on his part, because he could be pretty nasty at times -- he just was not as capable in the arena of viciousness.

Edmonton guy whereas yours had Steve.
