I've been known to answer to "Hey You" also.
Well, I received an email after my initial contact with Microsoft
saying
they were looking into the problem.
Today I see that they've resolved it and are displaying my bronze star.
Thanks for mentioning it.

Hi, Kevin.
You're welcome. I contacted tech support nearly a month ago, too,
and
they've replied a few times. Unfortunately, they are still
researching the
problem (or have forgotten about the problem by now), so I wondered
if
anyone else is complaining to them.
BTW, why do you think my name is Kevin?
When parents have twins, they are often asked how they tell the two
apart.
"You yell out one of the names, and whoever answers is the one you
want."
I'm addressing my messages to Kevin. You're the one who is answering
me.
HTH.

Gunny,
Thanks for all of that information. I had no idea about this
program, and
I
suppose, egos being what they are, I'd prefer to have the
recognition than
not have it!
I have contacted them, and will follow up with you if and when I
hear
anything.
BTW, why do you think my name is Kevin?

Hi, Kevin.
Well, this means that you haven't contacted tech support about it,
so
that
question is answered. Thanks.
I have no idea, however,
what a "bronze medal icon" is, nor what the "newsgroup thread
pane" is.
The bronze medal icon indicates a contributor's level of expertise
in the
Microsoft Online Community, and the icon appears next to the
display name
of
the contributor for new posts after he has reached each level.
The icon
can
be seen in the "thread pane" in the middle of the Web page listing
the
display names and dates of replies to the question. It can also
be seen
in
the "reply pane" on the right-hand side of the Web page, next to
the
contributor's display name.
Look at the following Web page:
http://www.microsoft.com/office/com...cbdb1a-b136-4d4a-8b50-5eb3a7b8f332&sloc=en-us
Do you see a bronze badge next to Jim Tomlinson's name with the
number 3
in
it? Select Jim's name in the right-hand pane to open his profile.
He
has
earned the bronze badge by correctly answering at least 51
questions and
waiting till after the requisite four week waiting period has
expired.
Now
look at the following Web page:
http://www.microsoft.com/office/com...00dd05-838b-42cf-a247-b97f5f09c529&sloc=en-us
There's no bronze badge next to your display name. Select your
display
name
in the right-hand pane to open your profile. You have also earned
the
bronze badge by correctly answering at least 51 questions and
waiting
till
after the requisite four week waiting period has expired.
So where is your badge? Furthermore, where are the badges for the
other
people who regularly post in the Access newsgroups and have had at
least
51
replies marked as answers and have been waiting more than a month
since
they
reached 51 answers? Other newsgroups have a few people with
badges
indicating their contribution level in the Microsoft Online
Community,
but
none of the the Access newsgroups seem to.
Here's another contributor in the SQL Server newsgroups who has
reached
the
second level, the silver badge:
http://www.microsoft.com/communitie...2310d6-082f-484f-a749-f806572ebaa1&sloc=en-us
This makes it look like the Access community contributors are a
bunch of
slackers compared to the other newsgroups, and that just ain't
true.
HTH.

Hi, 69 Camaro. And BTW; that was one sweet car. I have no
idea,
however,
what a "bronze medal icon" is, nor what the "newsgroup thread
pane" is.
Please enlighten me.
Sprinks
:
Hi, Kevin.
Sorry to barge in on this thread, but you don't offer an E-mail
address
for
people to reach you outside of the newsgoups. Have you already
contacted
the Microsoft Online Community tech support about the bronze
medal
icon
next
to your name in the newsgroup thread pane? If so, what did
they tell
you?
Thanks.

Hi, Ryan.
I have not used an ActiveX control in any of my applications,
but
I'm
presuming it, like any other control, has an AfterUpdate
event
property.
Open the form in design view, click on the control, and
display the
properties with View, Properties. Click the Event tab, click
into
the
AfterUpdate field, and click on the ellipsis to the right,
and
select
Code
Builder, if necessary (depending on your configuration it may
just
launch
the
Code Builder).
VBA will create the shell of the event procedure for you.
Add the
code
between the Sub and End Sub lines, change YourDateField to
the name
of
the
field by which you wish to filter, and change
YourActiveXControl to
the
name
of the control. Save it, except the VBA editor, save your
form, and
you
should be in business.
Hope that helps.

I am sorry for my ignorance...how can I apply your response
to my
database?
Where would I be entering the code that you wrote and where
do I
set
the
Filter/Filteron controls? Thank you so very much for your
time,
Ryan
Hi, Ryan.
To do this, set the Filter and FilterOn properties. You
also
need
to
type
the data as a date value with leading and trailing #
symbols:
Me.Filter = "[YourDateField]= #" &
Me.YourActiveXControl &
"#"
Me.FilterOn = True
Hope that helps.

I have a form that I have added an active control
calendar. My
calendar is
working great without problems. How can I base my forms
information
dependent
on the date I choose in the active x?
For example, if I choose May 6, 2005 on my control, I
want my
form
to
refresh to display info relating to May 6, 2005. Do I
need to
have
a
subform?
Thank you for your time!
Ryan
