AskWoody LoungerYou need to enable the flag in the registry
I believe its….
HKCU/Software/Policies/Microsoft/IE/Control Panel/ — FormSuggest (change from 0 to 1)I just did as you suggested and turned off Auto Complete by unchecking my selection and ok’d my way out. Closed IE and redid what I had just undone. Now we’ll see if it works.
Thanks for the suggestion.

AskWoody LoungerHELP! I have an Access 2000 db that has been rendered useless. I can see that my Access 2000 has been removed somehow.
First, it needs to be converted. Then it claims there is a READ ONLY object. Then it claims the switch board is missing or misspelled.
All my forms are gone…even though the switchboard manager still sees them!!
There is no TOOLS/REFERENCES option to check.I’ve attached screenshots of the error messages.
This is a mess and we are a week behind.
Nevermind a restore of the file resolved the issue.

AskWoody LoungerNever mind… I found it DEEP in the HELP sections, which pointed me to MSDN, of course.
I see theres no deleting of posts in this new format. It may take me awhile to get up to speed in this new app.

AskWoody LoungerNot really. It’s just a table property. DateCreated or DateModified are the only attributes I’ve seen in code, but accessing it has been quite a pain.

AskWoody LoungerAwesome…thanks!

AskWoody LoungerThanks for your help, All
I’ve done the quickest thing…which is place it in Excel
Insert the Stripit Function (Which was modified to a +3 on the right side of the trim)
Then called that from another column (= Stripit (a1))
This handled most of the nastinessThe ‘non-compliant’ ones were handled by filter and replace
Filter = Contains “.co.uk” {et al.}
Then I just copied and pasted and manually edited the dozen or so entries. No biggieInelegant…but it’s done!
Thanks again. -

AskWoody LoungerYIKES…I just found a huge problem. This does nothing to catch the country variants: “.co.uk” et al. This just got 10 times more complicated.

AskWoody LoungerI wish it were that simple. I guess I didn’t explain it properly. I don’t want to remove the “.com” piece from the string. I want to Right trim the string and remove all characters after the .com or .net

AskWoody LoungerContinuing (or reviving) this thread…
What do we do for a series of worksheets all with different range names?
Ala “SheetNames!RangeNames”Also, if there are literally and hundred or so spreadsheets (all with ranges) do we run the risk of running out of buffer space when copying?
Is there a way to halt the process, clear the buffers and then resume the process? Maybe even log the transfer activity (sheetnames and range names)? -

AskWoody LoungerMy apologies. That was very vague of me.
My intention is to check for a (NULL or blank) in a cell (say C:2)
If it is NULL or blank then just hide ROW#2There would be a limit in the array. It wouldn’t have to be for all 65k rows.
The upper limit of the array would prob be 1000. -
WSjazman2k
AskWoody LoungerGreat! What if I wanted to extend that to a conditional hiding of rows if a value was null or blank?
Thanks again -

AskWoody LoungerAnother awesome solution!
Had I not had the ability to create or append a module, this would’ve saved my keester.
Cheers to you too! -

AskWoody LoungerAWESOME! That rocks! You rock. Saved me hours of work!

AskWoody LoungerMore than likely…all I want is the last one to the right. Is it necessary to count every instance? I saw a post which mentioned INSTRREV (or something like that). Is it just a VBA function?

WSjazman2k
AskWoody LoungerBINGO! Thanks a million for all your help. This was actually a blessing in disguise as I was trying to figure out a way to glean the useful elements from the flotsom (unused queries and tables) that had collected over time. The documenter was a decent place to start, but this little salvage operation was better than I’d hoped. You saved me hours of
