Hmmm …… you lost me on that one.

I may have misunderstood the original post. I was assuming that there was no OS installed on the machine. I may have misunderstood the post. He posted …. “HP Vectra VL6/400 Series 8 computer that does not have an operating system installed”

If there is no OS installed … you can install the modem, then run “setup” of the OS and it will detect the modem during the OS installation process (if Plug&Play). Of course you could install the modem later, after the OS has been installed.

I normally do not install any unessesary hardware during the “setup” of a OS, as I have found that it can confuse and corrupt the setup operation. I usually perform setup with only the minimum hardware needed, then after completion I install each additional piece of hardware one at a time. I have had much better luck with this approach.

I hope I understand this question …….

You should install the modem first …. then if the modem is Plug & Play the OS should detect it during ithe installation process. You should have the Driver Disk(s) for the modem handy in case Windows does not have a suitable driver for the modem.

2501 means something was canceled. Try altering your code to what I have below:

Private Sub Send_Email_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Send_Email_Click

If Not IsNull(POC_Email) Then

I have a copy of the file in Access 97 version. If you will email me, I will send you a zipped copy.

When the Wizard appears …. there are two radio buttons. If you choose “Use an existing form”, you choose a form from the list below.

But you want to use ….. “Use existing Tables and Queries”. Click this option, then click the “Next” button near the bottom. The next form is where you choose the Table or Query from the ComboBox entitled “Tables/Queries”.

You are very Welcome …..

I am glad the information helped you.

LOL … I was just using the “Old” DOS limitations as an example.

What I was referring to was the “BIOS limitations” of the motherboard.

It hasn’t been too long ago that this “limitation” was that the motherboard could not recognize a HardDrive with a Partition larger than 2.1GB. For those older motherboards you had two choices. Partition the larger drive into multiple partitions 2.1GB or smaller …. or install software to coax the BIOS into accepting the larger drive. Sure …. Fat 32 will handle up to 2 Terabyte …. but an older motherboard could not see over 2.1GB.

RDH

I know this is a little late in the thread but …….

Is it possible that the poster is using software to break the 2.1GB barrier? If the software is used and you attempt to boot the machine with a standard boot disk, the masking software does not execute …. thus the drive information is not recognized.

I remember having this kind of problem when the 540MB limitation for DOS was broken …. “shows my age” … LOL

Just a thought …..

Great …. You are Welcome ….

Make sure you read Charlotte’s note about the limations of using this function.

You are absolutely right …..
I just thought I’d mention it due to many people not knowing that this function exists.

Happy Holidays,

One way to do this is to use the BuildCriteria() Function that is in Access. Here is an example:

Private Sub cboYourComboName_AfterUpdate()
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler

If Not IsNull(cboYourComboName) Then
Me.RecordsetClone.FindFirst BuildCriteria(“NameOfFieldInTable”, dbText, cboYourComboName)
Me.Bookmark = Me.RecordsetClone.Bookmark
cboYourComboName = Null
Else
MsgBox “You Must Choose a Value from the ComboBox.”, vbOKOnly, ” No Item Selected ….”
End If

ExitHere:
Exit Sub

ErrorHandler:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume ExitHere
End Sub

You can find more information on the use of this function in Access Help files.

LOL …. that was one of my guesses earlier ……

Glad you figured it out.

If you execute the query from within the design view of the query … the query will not append any records, it will simply emulate a select query. This is why I I told you to do this. You should see all 2000 records returned by this method. If all records are not being returned then …. there must be something limiting the query results such as incorrect Joins or some kind of criteria or conditions being set.
