    TXT file parser

    I am looking for a simple text parser that will search a .txt file for
    the words "Prefailure ", "Warning", "Error", etc. and send an email if
    any of those words are found using a program called "Bmail". I am
    using the Beyond Logic SMART script for monitoring hard drives - the
    bmail program is on that same website. (http://beyondlogic.org/consulting/smart/smart.htm)

    thanks...but just to clarify what you just said...you DONT use the sum function if you want it totaled for individual records, just write an expression without any functions...

    thanks for all your help. i got it set!...

    replied to access form - expression
    thanks, that does something...but it totals for the entire database.

    how do you set it for just one record at a time? (ie. amount due for one customer)

    i have done this before, but don't have access to that database right now and cant look it up.

    access form - expression

    hi guys -

    I have this formula that I want to use in a form to calculate the "amount due" for a text box. i have tried the text box as both an unbound text box and a text box with the expression below:

    Code:
    =Sum(([dvdqty]*8)+([cdqty]*5)+([dvdcdqty]*11))
    the result is a blank text box. there are no 0s in the other text boxes and the types are set to number.

    if anyone could help...

    replied to VB question on Access form
    heres how it works:
    1. OPTIONAL TO USER: ssn entered on form
    2. ssn saved in table when record saved from form
    3. on opening the report, the reports control source is a query that uses the module code previously posted to verify if the ssn is not null, but will still open the report even if there are blank (empty string) ssn's.
    4. because the report is based off a query, and that query has "built-in" error checking...

    that didn't seem to work.

    I still get the "Must be 9 digits error" coming up when I try to open the report with a "0" or empty string in the SSN field. still trying to figure this one out.

    thanks

    VB question on Access form

    You may be familiar with this problem as I posted it before, so here we go...

    I have a module that provides error checking for the length of a SSN and I need a
    little help in one area...

    The code will check to see if the SSN is 9 digits exactly, and if not it will produce an error message, otherwise it will cipher the SSN. The error message is part of the VBA (the 'msg' in the code below).

    replied to code to ignore/catch null error?
    thanks for the reply. i am trying to figure out how to incorporate that with my current code. here is my starting code (yielding run time error):
    Code:
    Private Sub SSN_AfterUpdate()
    Me!SSN = CipherSSN(Me!SSN)
    End Sub
    and the code with your addition (to start, still playing):
    Code:
    Private Sub SSN_AfterUpdate()
    Dim MyString As String
    Me!SSN = CipherSSN(Me!SSN)
    MyString = IIf(IsNull(Me.SSN), 0, Me.SSN)

    code to ignore/catch null error?

    I have a form with a textbox for entering SSNs and an AfterUpdate event procedure to encrypt it when clicked out of the box (not the problem)

    the problem:
    if i enter a SSN, save and go to the next record, and then go back to the record and delete the SSN, save and go to the next, i get a VB Run-time error 94 - "Invalid use of Null"

    how do i suppress that error or handle it so it can continue on even...

    remote password reset

    we have a user that is on his laptop at a conference. over the weekend he changed his password on the laptop but - surprise! - forgot the password. he is still away at the conference and needs to get into the network remotely using his account (for remote desktop).

    is there a way to reset his password for the domain on his laptop without physically being connected to the domain?

    i have looked into password reset tools,...

  • i tried that and i got VB run-time error 2465: "Microsoft Office Access can't find the field 'SSN' referred to in your expression."

    the SSN is being pulled from a query that queries the employee table (where the encrypted SSN is stored) and the report has a textbox on it that has a control source of "ssn" off of the query.

    all i want the code to do is decrypt the SSN back to a normal 9-digit's and...
