Security

If security is applied using wizard how does this effect users accessing other databases on a network?

RE: Security

Hi Laura, Thank you for your post, In response to your question, to my knowledge; creating security on a database on a network requires all network users to log in in order to use that database, this should not affect the use of other databases on the network. If you do not activate the logon procedure on a database, you are automatically logged on under the Admin user account, for which there is an empty password. ie no security settings. I hope that makes it a little clearer, best regards Pete


 

Access tip:

Open A Combo Box Automatically

This is helpful if users need to enter large amounts of data. There are two ways to open ComboBoxes when they get the focus by using the tab keys.

When the ComboBox gets focus:

Press Alt + Down Arrow on the keyboard

For it to happen automatically, needs a bit of coding:

1. Add a combo box and a text box control to the form
2. Set the combo box's On Got Focus property to the following event procedure:

Private Sub ComboBoxName _GotFocus()

Me!ComboBoxName.Dropdown

End Sub


3. Open your form in Form View and use the TAB key to make sure it works.
