I know this is an old thread but I found these guys useful https://processit.co.nz/processtools.htm - Access Add-in

Hi James
That's a bit disingenuous of you as I believe that is your own site! Nevertheless it is a useful add-in

 

[Uncle Gizmo]

I've now added almost all of these to my Useful Links web page.

I too have a useful link page on my website!

MS Access Links - Nifty Access

MS Access Links I gather links from all over the internet related to MS Access, and of course other things of interest to me in creating novel MS Access Solutions. I was finding it difficult to maintain lists of links on the Nifty Access Website, that is, until I found this WordPress plug-in:-...

www.niftyaccess.com

It's got a very useful search function try searching for "isladogs" or "Audit Trail"

And you can export your search results in many formats. I particularly like the PDF export...

@isladogs Colin, you need to update that Link, it don't work!!!

 

[Uncle Gizmo]

Here is a good example of why I am over the moon about Jon's new search facility on this new forum software...

I quickly and easily found all of the places you have used that link Colin see here:-

Access World Forums

www.access-programmers.co.uk

All you have to do is paste the link text into the search box, select your name @isladogs and hey presto, you have a list of all the places you have used the broken link in AWF. Now you can quickly and easily update it.

 

[isladogs]

Thanks. Those are all now done!

There are several hundred old defunct links I need to update at some point .... BUT that process should help a lot!

That's a 'nifty' search feature on your site.
Going to add similar search functionality to my own site soon ....

Hi isladogs, Another one for you: tonytoews.com
he also has the site granite.ab.ca which is a little confusing but they are basically the same.

Some of it a bit dated but has always been good for tech stuff over the years.

 

[Pat Hartman]

Thanks Colin,

Here's one you might want to add. It is actually a search in the MS Access Help Center to specifically find Access VBA functions which is what I was originally going to suggest but it brought up some interesting other links.

Search results for 'access functions Access' - Microsoft Support

support.microsoft.com

These don't work:

Doug Steele
Wizhook reference
Microsoft Access templates

Many thanks to both @Cotswold and @Pat Hartman
I've fixed all 3 broken links and added both links that were suggested
It was also helpful in improving the page layout

Perhaps if @James Dickinson 'fesses up' I may also add his website later!

Anyway, for many years I've been unsure how to pronounce Tony Toews' last name...
Is it Toos or Tooees or Twees or Toys or even Two Wees (sorry!) etc.

Others far better than me have had the same lack of certainty in terms of pronunciation...
In fact, its none of those as another ex-MVP, Tom W, told me by chance only last week

Pat may already know but I'll let others guess before I enlighten other members.

I seem to recall Tony saying it was pronounced as taves when I met him a while ago at an MVP event. It was nothing you would expect given the spelling.

Anyway, for many years I've been unsure how to pronounce Tony Toews' last name...

But you don't need to pronounce it in the internet

There is also https://jkp-ads.com/ They provide a few downloads, TreeView and others are some which avoid the need for ActiveX

 

[isladogs]

The JKP site is already listed with a specific reference to its non-ActiveX treeview.

 

[AngelSpeaks]

If he pronounces his name the same way Chicago Blackhawks Jonathan Toews then it's tays.

 

[isladogs]

According to a good authority, its pronounced “Tay-ves”…. basically as Pat remembered it!

 

[Pat Hartman]

Too bad my short term memory isn't as good as my long term memory Looks like I can keep answering access questions as long as I can sit at a keyboard.

Wow thanks, really helpful links.
