Unbound Txt Boxes

D

DrNoose

Hi!

I have a program that I'm doing and having some trouble with a unbound
text box. The program asks that you create an unbound text box in the
Detail section below a subform. Next, you enter the name of the label
control and then enter an expression in the unbound text box.

What happens is that when I display the form, the unbound text box shows
up too along with the label control. What do I need to do to make the
unbound text box with the expression not show up on the form view?

Thanks!

are you wanting to make the text box not visible?

if so:
Visible --> false

Hi!

When I click on the unbound text box and go to the properties and choose
false, it also makes the label control not show up on the screen as
well. How can I make the label control visible and the and the unbound
text box not visible?

Thanks!

from design view, select the label and cut it, then paste it and line it
up again -- this disassociates it from the textbox

perhaps what you are really wanting to do is make Enabled for the
textbox --> false
(it will become greyed out)

Hi!

I knew it had to be something simple!!!!! Thanks it worked great!!!!!!

The only problem I have left is trying to get the documenter to work. He
wants us to do a print out with some formatting like flat, etc. and it's
not working. Oh well! One thing at a time!!!!

Fixing Wizards
---


you're welcome :)

On the Documentor not working, here is something written by Tom
Wickerath for fixing Wizards, it may help you:

'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try the following steps. You possibly have other wizards that are not
functional as well.

Replace three files on your hard drive, Acwzmain.mde, Acwzlib.mde and
Acwztool.mde, using the instructions shown in KB 303769. One or more of
these files may have become corrupted. Do this without Access running.

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=303769

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=833220 ß Error in loading DLL

1.) Insert the Microsoft Office or Access compact disc.

2.) By using Windows Explorer, open the Pfiles\Msoffice\Office\1033

folder on your CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive, and locate the

Acwzmain.mde, Acwzlib.mde and Acwztool.mde files.

3.) Select these files, and then click Copy on the Edit menu
4.) Open the folder that you installed Office into. The default folder is

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office. Select the Office\1033 folder,

and then on the Edit menu, click Paste.

If that doesn't fix the problem, try re-registering the Accwiz.dll,
Msado15.dll and DAO360.dll files.

Click on Start > Run. Then enter the commands:

Regsvr32 Accwiz.dll

Regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Common Files\system\ado\Msado15.dll"
Regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft
Shared\DAO\Dao360.dll"

Wizard starts, but “No valid fields can be found” error message may be
related to overly aggressive settings on antivirus software:

and

Access 2003 Users:

BUG: List of currently linked tables may not appear in

Linked Table Manager Wizard in a database in Access 2003

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=835519

Notes:

1. To find Accwiz.dll in Win. XP Professional, I had to make sure to
place a check on Advanced Options in the search dialog, with Search
system folders and Search Subfolders checked.
2. Although I received a message indicating success, when using
regsvr32, I found that the path was not updated. I had to manually
update the value of this key on my PC.
