Student Interaction: Microsoft Access 321

Richard on 1/1/2008:  Working with unbound ListBox controls, editing recordset data, multi-select listbox, adding & deleting recordset data.
Richard on 2/26/2009: ATTENTION STUDENTS: if you are using Access 2000 or earlier, you will NOT have a Listbox AddItem or RemoveItem command available. See this page for details.
 Harry on 3/5/2009: What is your view on using the prefix (if that is the right word) me. in front of field names? I like to do it because it triggers intellisense (sp?) Also, I try to run the Debug/compile routine after writing code but before trying it out. Do you think that is a good practice/
 Harry on 3/5/2009: is there any difference in using: me.firstname.setfocus vs DoCmd.GoToControl "FirstName"?

Richard Rost on 3/6/2009: Harry, functionally both SetFocus and GoToControl work about the same. 99% of the time there is no difference. However, I have run into situations where ONE of the two works and the other doesn't. I don't really know why. I've had problems, especially, when trying to go to controls on a SUBFORM or tab control. Sometimes GoToControl works and SetFocus doesn't... so keep both in your toolbox. One (SetFocus) is a method of a control, the [more...]
Richard Rost on 3/6/2009: Harry, yes, IDs should always be LONG INTEGERS. I specify this all the way back in Access 101. Where did I make one an Integer?
