Parsing newsreader NZB files into a table 
  If you export an NZB file from a newsreader, it saves all of the information about the various parts, but each file has a header which contains the subject line. It appears to be the same format all the way through. It would be useful to, for example load all headers, dump as an nzb then read it back into access so you could... more »

Vertical Text 
  Access 2010 It seems that very few fonts will print vertically. I have a report showing a seating plan (formal dinners) often with a horizontally placed top table and 2 vertically placed side tables. The user can select the font for the individual place names. If the table is shown horizontally, the place names are printed vertically and, conversely, if the... more »

Requery directed to a specific control fires unwanted total form refresh 
  I've got a unbounded form with 2 subforms. When an event occurs in 1 form, on update, it tells the parent main form to refresh a single control. Strangely, rather than the refresh only being for the NAMED control on the parent, all the controls on the parent form get refreshed which is not desired.... more »

MSAccess link to Google Maps and Search 
  As has been said is several spots, there is not an easy way (and maybe not even a hard way) to place a google maps image on your form. However, here is a very easy way to create a hyperlink to google maps. This assumes a 2 line address in the form, but can handle a 3line address with a name as well. Not sure how it would work with two... more »

Possible to run command prompt code within Access 2010? 
  Hi, We use a third party Active X control for our calendars. Right now we have the user bring up the command prompt and register it manually. Can we do this in VBA instead so we can put it on a form or ribbon? The user first browses to the folder that contains the control ("ourapp\bin") then types in "regsvr32.exe controlname.ocx".... more »

Access 2010: Staying on the same ribbon tab (have active tab stay open) 
  Hi, When I select something from a tab (form, report), the focus will switch back to the first tab after the form or report is closed. I'd like to have the active tab stay open until the user decides to click on another tab. I see in a book that there is code to set focus to a particular tab... more »
