  1. Wrote my first Windows batch file today. It checks if a user's local copy of an Access frontend database is the current version; if not, it downloads the latest version from the server into a local folder, deletes any old local copies, then launches Access with it in runtime mode. 😎 #access #office #msAccess #msOffice #windows #databases #programming

    Apparently the optimal VBA code to save a record in Access is:

    If Me.Dirty Then
    Me.Dirty = False
    End If

  7. Nearly all of my prior database experience comes from working in Salesforce. I've built lots of custom objects, apps, flows, and have written some Apex.

    But I have this one little project requiring MS Access now. It's been really frustrating but I'm making progress. I guess Salesforce spoiled me. Functionality I took for granted in Salesforce, I have to implement from scratch in Access with unwieldy SQL statements and VBA. #salesforce #MSAccess #database

  12. Hm, really tired of this , database application stuff. I need a quick way to create a "main/detail" GUI from a database.

    There once was and that really nice stuff.

    Is there anything else, existing to this day?

    I know of
    - (only ORM, no GUI generation)
    - (very close, but only web GUI. Thanks to @peter for that hint some time ago).

    Do you know of anything? @helge

  29. A continual irritation in my life is app interface redesigns for easier to use touchscreens that make them worse on non-touchscreens. For example, I've been battling #Chrome & #Brave forever finding tweaks to remove the extra white space they put in menu line spacing that just means less is displayed. Meanwhile, Microsoft increased the size of their #MSAccess tool ribbon so that none of my forms fit properly on screen anymore.

    Why not just let us customize? WTF.

  33. @adacosta Pretty obvious that there is no room for "next generation #MSAccess" to be launched into the current product portfolio. So, yes, I agree.

  38. @adacosta Microsoft also promotes the path to migrate #MSAccess databases to Dataverse (Power Platform) and turn the apps into #PowerApps. Which would surely be great alternative to SQL for the citizen developers managing their own Access apps. powerapps.microsoft.com/en-us/
