What is the best way to link a data access page to a form.

RE: Access

Hello Eddy,

Hope you enjoyed your Microsoft Access courses with BEST STL Training.
Thank you for your question regarding Forms and data access pages.

Regarding your question, I am not 100% sure what you mean when you ask about linking a data access page to a form.

In my understanding the data access page is a sepate object to a form, although it is a type of form, specifically designed for use on the internet.

If you are looking to add a link on the data acess page itself, you could always go to the design view of that page, and simply add a hyperlink to the page.

What I am not sure about is how you will link from the internet to a form within your database.

Please could you clarify what you mean, and then perhaps we can assist you.

If this resolves your question, please mark this question as resolved.

If you require further assistance, please reply to this post. Or perhaps you have another Microsoft Office question?

Have a great day.
Regards,

Richard

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.
