F

Fehn

Please Help.

I downloaded the time ad billing database and I havent change anything, But
when I checked the invoice, and I put a start date a run time error 2465
shows up, it also says Print Invoice Time Subform cannot be found and if i
close the debugger the the report will show up and everything is ok except
for the invoice total, it says error.

If you haven't invested much time yet in trying to use this database, I
suggest you look for another source. Or you might ask the party from
whom you got it what went wrong. I imagine you won't be happy with a
database that does most things properly except that it prints wrong
totals! :)

If you HAVE spent a lot of effort on it, AND you think you understand it
well enough that you can replace all the parts that don't work, then you
might try posting the details here. But you still might be ahead
getting something that works properly to begin with.

It's not your computer, neither is it your installation of Office. That
template is broken.

The code behind the "Print Invoice" form contains several references to
controls named "[Print Invoice Expenses Subform]" and "[Print Invoice Time
Subform]", but no such controls exist. This is the cause of the 2465 error.

On the report, the invoice total text box that is displaying "#Error" has
the following expression as its control source ...

=Forms![Print Invoice]![Total Expenses]+Forms![Print Invoice]![Total Hourly
Billings]

The form "Print Invoice" does not include any controls named "[Total
Expenses]" or "[Total Hourly Billings]"

Thank you so much Brendan!

Since this template has been out a long time ago, did anybody fixed this
already?

If not, then, do you know how I can fix this?

Thanks.

Im not sure if my computer has the problem or my office 2003.

If anyone knows how to correct the run time error 2465 problem, please let
me know.

On my PC, I have a version of the Time and Billing template that was
installed on my hard disk when I installed Access. This version appears to
have fewer errors than the on-line version - in this version the Print
Invoice form does have the two subform controls referred to in the code, and
does have the two text boxes referred to by the expression in the control
source of the text box on the Invoice report.

Unfortunately, while it appears to have fewer errors then the on-line
version, this template is not without errors of its own.

If you want to try it, you can get to it from within Access 2003 by choosing
'New' from the 'File' menu, then 'On my computer ...' in the 'New File' task
pane, then selecting the 'Databases' tab in the 'Templates' dialog.

If you didn't do a complete install, it is possible that you may need to
re-run setup and choose the option to add remove components.

I'm afraid that Microsoft's templates appear to have a quality control
problem, and frequently contain errors. Does this mean that they should be
avoided? I'm not sure. Perhaps they contain no more errors than a beginner
would make without using a template. Ultimately, you'll have to decide for
yourself whether they have value for you.

To Fehn:
Steve just does *not* care about the newsgroups. He has *no ethics at all*.
Steve *only* cares about making *money*, and he acts as if the groups are his private hunting ground.

-- He abuses this group and others for job-hunting and advertising over and over again
-- He is insulting lots of people here when they ask him to stop this
-- He posted as Steve, Ron, Tom, Rachel, Kathy, Kristine, Heather and ??? while asking questions
(the latest 'star's': 'Access Resource' and Tom (e-mail address removed) and Andy)
-- He tries to sell a CD ($125,--) with FREE code he gathered from these groups here
-- There even has been a 'Scam-alert' about him which has been explained recently in the thread 'To all':
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.databases.ms-access/msg/46038ba2954261f9?hl=en
-- Also recently it became clear that he has been spamming innocent people asking questions:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.databases.ms-access/msg/4f76d0ed3e5f58ad?hl=en

So why would ANYBODY ever trust a person like him and hire him?

mvs83,

no idea what you're referring to. If you're going to start a new thread,
then at least copy and paste the relevant points already discussed, so that
anyone here knows what you're talking about.

HTH,
