    Truncated text when printing or exporting

    Hello, I've designed a report that renders fine from the UI, but when printed or exported (to Word or PDF), several (but not all) fields are truncated to one line, instead of growing. I verified all fields indeed have "Can Grow" set to true, and the misbehaving fields have the EXACT same...

    Modify output of a Javascript widget

    Hello, I'm working with a JS widget from LinkedIn that provides connection info for a given company. LinkedIn provides the following code (via a tool on their website). This runs well, but I need to alter the format and some content. There is no HTML output that I could use a script to...

    How to open file directly on the server

    Thanks for the helpful suggestions. I don't know why I didn't think of using the \\server\share\file method! DUH! It is good in general to know the code is executed on the client, as if it was saved and executed on their machine. That knowledge may help me not need to chase my tail in the...

    How to open file directly on the server

    Hi, I have an Access DB (2007) stored on a server. A function within this DB opens a data file for reading and imports it into the database. The function includes a path to the file to be opened. Users are connecting to this database via a network share. It seems the function to open the...

    Corrupted libraries of Office installation?

    Just wanted to bump up this post. I'm rather desperate. Any ideas?

    Corrupted libraries of Office installation?

    I have an Excel workbook with quite a bit of code throughout. It uses the VBA, Excel, and MS Forms libraries. It works fine for 10 of 12 users. The two problem users get errors as though their libraries aren't installed. Simple functions like Space() are erroring out for them. I checked...

    This Page Cannot Be Displayed error appearing inconsistently

    Thanks for the continued ideas. The issue continues, though. 1. I cleared the Java cache 2. The hosts file is empty, which matches "good" users 3. tracert matches on good and bad users 4. No sites are listed in local intranet security 5. Automatic logon is selected for intranet zone...

    This Page Cannot Be Displayed error appearing inconsistently

    This remains a problem. I took Dian's advice to ping and try a numerical IP, same thing. Of note, I ran the C-Cleaner utility on one user. They were able to view the page once, and then reverted back to not being able to view. FYI, Java and Javascript are also used in this application...

    Thanks Dian, I'll try that tomorrow with the affected users.

    This Page Cannot Be Displayed error appearing inconsistently

    Also, I tried re-registering the IE DLLs (per suggestions in other posts). Still a problem.

    This Page Cannot Be Displayed error appearing inconsistently

    Hello, I'm the administrator for an intranet-based application. In my 9 years of administering this app, I've never seen this issue! SOME users get the dreaded "This page cannot be displayed....cannot find server or DNS error" error for a particular page on the site, while most others do not...

    Parse HTML with VBA

    That seems to work. I can turn VISIBLE to TRUE, and I get the webpage and no errors. I'm happy to use whatever approach works so I can get the data out of the tags. Any recommendations?

    Parse HTML with VBA

    Thanks for the prompt reply. I was being vague on purpose, because I'm not even sure what my general approach should be. I was however able to create an object so I have access to the HTML itself. I'm not sure how to parse it from there. This is what I have so far: Private Sub...

    Parse HTML with VBA

    I'm trying to parse an HTML file, so I can eventually pull data into my Access database. I've come across DOM and MSXML, but not sure how to tackle this. I can write my own logic once I can get to the tags. I will need to examine tag attributes, and values for the tags. For example, one...

    getURL - layer or browser problem?

    Hi OldNewbie!! I was hoping you'd be around to see this :) I'm pulling my hair out with this problem. As I mentioned, some of the test PCs (distributed across my family, haha) work and some don't. I'm trying to see what the OS/Flash Player/Browser diffs are among them. I came across this...
