How to stop opening of multiple instance of Access 2000 after upd.
When I update a feild in MS Word, Access opens up to get the proper
information, but does not close when it is finished. Essentially, every time I update a feild, I get 2 instances of Access 2000. This did not happen with Access 97. Is there a way to stop this from happening? |

You might need to change the method you are using.

Hi,
There is no other way to manually update a MS WORD field. This also occurs with some automatic SQL code that is hooked to Access 2000. Due to it not occurring in Access 97, and not 2000, there is hopefully a fix for it, or a way to curb it. Has anyone come across this, and resolved it?

You might need to describe what you are doing. Are you referring to a Word
Merge Field? Are you running any code in Word (or Access) that you would care to share with us? -- Duane Hookom MS Access MVP "Taika Bilbo" wrote in message ...

Hi,
I have a requirements database in Access, that contains tables of, for example, constants. In MS Word, I created a feild, that goes into the DB, and grabs the constants per some requirements, and puts them in tabel form in Word. The problem is the way Access, as a whole, acts. Say I update a bunch of data in my constants table in the DB. I now have to open the applicable Word Documents, and update the field that querys the constants table in MS Access. When the DB was in Access 97, I could not have Access open, and when I updated the word field, Access would open, update the Word feild and close automatically (through no programming, or setting settings). I had to convert this database to Access 2000. Now when I update a field, Access opens and stays open after doing the update. Not only does an instance of my DB open, but it also opens my "top level" form. So in essence, each time I update a Word feild, I get two db instances on my taskbar. After working for 1 hour, I have 50 things to close. It gets annoying. I have looked in options, settings, and the internet for a solution, and cannot find anything. Did I make the problem clear? Thanks so much. "Duane Hookom" wrote: You might need to describe what you are doing. Are you referring to a Word Merge Field?

This might be clear to someone else but not me. I still have no idea how you
are doing your update from Word. Are you opening an ADO recordset from Word and then find specific records in Access to update bookmarks in Word? -- Duane Hookom MS Access MVP "Taika Bilbo" wrote in message ...
