RE: Access 2007 and 2003

Dear Sophie

Thank you for attending Access 2007 Introduction course!! I hope you enjoyed the course and benefited from it.

Mnay of teh features that you use in Access 22007 are compatible with 2002- 2003 versions. So when you try to save the 2007 version as earlier version you should be able to do that without any problems.

If you do get a message mentioning that it cannot convert the database to the earlier version there could be some factors and they are mentioned in teh below mentioned lin:

I hope this has answered your query.

Kindest Regards

Access tip:

Create a custom Close button on a Form

By default, Forms that you create in Access have a full set of control buttons, that is, a title bar with Minimize, Maximize and Close buttons in the top right-hand corner and a Control Menu in the top left-hand corner.

Sometimes Access needs to follow certain procedures or events as users close a Form (such as automatically opening another Form perhaps). So it is often a good habit to create a custom Close button on a Form for everyone to use, rather than the standard closing cross.

To create a custom Close button:

1) In Form Design View, draw a Command Button onto the Form.

2) Use the Command Button Wizard to select Form Operations under Categories, and Close Form under Actions.

3) Choose Finish.

Access then creates the button and code to close the form for you. You can add any extra code that needs to run as the Form closes to the same Close procedure.

However, the creation of a custom Close button is pointless if the closing X in the top right-hand corner of the Form remains active. To make the closing X inactive, open the Form Properties box then on the Format tab set the Close Button setting to No. This will grey out the closing X leaving it visible, but inactive.
