[AccessD] Control reference question.

Hi Bobby
 
Always use the syntax stated here (one line):
 
http://www.databaseadvisors.com/newletters/newsletter032004/0310ReferenceGuide/SyntaxForSubs.htm
 
Other methods may work (as you have demonstrated) but they are
generally not considered good programming practice.
 
"Svar:" is Danish for "Re:". We have moved to a brand new GroupWise 6.5
system (boy, this rocks) and currently I'm running the Danish
localisation ... haven't found out yet how to adjust this detail.

Gustav,

Yes, that works also.  Why would I need to put .Report on the end?  It
already knows it is in the Reports collection?  

I have never seen anything like that when referencing something on a
form
either?  Is there a .Form for the forms?

Also, what is Svar in the subject?

Thanks,
Bobby

Hi Bobby

What happens if you try?
The use of .Report should be the recommended syntax ...

I dunno, it works as I have it.  I have never used Report on the end
like
you have it.

Hi Bobby

Shouldn't it read:

   With Reports!Closeout!Closeout_GL_sub.Report
      If !txtSetBold <> 0 Then
         !txtGLEstPayroll.FONTBOLD = True
         !txtGLFinalPayroll.FONTBOLD = True
      Else
         !txtGLEstPayroll.FONTBOLD = False
         !txtGLFinalPayroll.FONTBOLD = False
      End If
   End With

Now this is really weird.  I played with it for over an hour yesterday
and
could not get it to work no matter how I changed it.  I went back in a
few
minutes ago and changed the code from:


   With Reports!Closeout!Closeout_GL_sub
      If txtSetBold <> 0 Then
         !txtGLEstPayroll.FONTBOLD = True
         !txtGLFinalPayroll.FONTBOLD = True
         Else
            !txtGLEstPayroll.FONTBOLD = False
            !txtGLFinalPayroll.FONTBOLD = False
         End If
      End With

TO 


   With Reports!Closeout!Closeout_GL_sub
      If txtSetBold <> 0 Then
         txtGLEstPayroll.FONTBOLD = True
         txtGLFinalPayroll.FONTBOLD = True
         Else
            txtGLEstPayroll.FONTBOLD = False
            txtGLFinalPayroll.FONTBOLD = False
         End If
      End With

And it now works.  I hate it when Access does this to me.

Thanks all.

Bobby
