This month, Aaron will describe more of the time-saving and dynamic code snippets that he has developed over the years. The "Little Buddies" from his code library are more than worth their weight in gold if you develop Access applications for your clients or for fun. Add-ins allow easy access to tools, created by you or someone else, in virtually all of your database projects. Aaron will be showing some Access add-ins that he has created. (And maybe a couple that he stole.) After his presentation, the Group will continue discussing the new features in Access 2007, if there is time. It seems that the more we use Access 2007, the more we find new and valuable features.

This month, Jim Pilcher and Patrick Headley will continue with the development of the DAAUG DVD/Movie database. Now that the table design is complete, we will look at setting a few validation rules and default values for various fields and discuss the relative merits of incorporating lookups directly into Access tables. Time-permitting, we will also begin looking at Access forms. Bring a USB flash drive if you want a copy of the database as it exists at the end of the presentation.

Beginning Ribbons for MS Access 2007. We will develop an application that utilizes the new ribbon navigation and control functionality available in MS Access 2007. We will start out with the basics of XML used for the ribbon and progress into third party applications that manipulate the ribbon.
Development of any non-trivial MS Access application can involve generation of a variety of VB code elements. Some of these elements may feel repetitive because the pattern is the same, but the details are different. In this discussion, we will explore an area where such repetition is advantageous, but repetitive nonetheless, namely VB classes to interface with Access tables. In addition, an add-in method for automatically generating the VB code for these classes will be discussed.
The discussion will include:
