I'm having trouble with Microsoft Access. I get the error "Run-time error '2683', There is no object in this control".
When debugging the database, it seems the line
Me.qStartDate.Value = Me.DTPickerStart.Value
is the problem. I've researched this error and it seems that there's a problem because DatePicker is deprecated and does not work on Access 2010. I'm wondering how I can rewrite this to make the function work.
Sorry, I'm a web programmer and I'm not very familiar with Visual Basic.
have a look at:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/gg251104(v=office.14).aspx
It mentions your options:
Use the built-in DatePicker feature for any TextBox control that is bound to a Date field.
Use the Windows DatePicker control, part of the Windows Common Controls.
Use a subform that looks and functions like a calendar.
Use a third-party date/calendar control.

I am currently working on an PowerPoint Addin and I am currently finishing the Ribbon. I'd like to create a control to change the size of objects that looks similar to the inbuild button "ShapeWidth" and "ShapeHeight":
However, I couldn't find the correct control type and hence I built the below by myself using an editbox and buttons. Although it's working I find the other style way cleaner but I haven't found the correct type.
Not all Ribbon X (Office Fluent UI) control types that Microsoft uses in its Office applications are made available to third-party developers. This, I'm afraid, falls into that category.
You should probably be able to get the image, at least, by specifying the idMso for the built-in control.
I am rewriting C++ Outlook Addin application to it full .NET representation using VSTO (Outlook 2007/2010).
One of the features to rewrite is html forms rendering. User can select checkbox, provide input, select option etc. in compose mail mode (before sending). But when I put any input markup to HTMLBody property it isn't rendered as expected. Instead only something like http://postimage.org/image/jk9swfr2t/ is rendered. I spent a very long time to search for a solution but it always ultimately turned out to be impossible due to Word based Outlook HTML render engine.
Our C++ addin code repository is extremely large and is legacy - I am not a c++ developer and don't know to much about COM and c++ outlook corresponding APIs, the target is to rewrite according to existing functionalities, there is simply no time and no resources to analize legacy code.
But the most interesting to me is that c++ version of software render everything: inputs, checkbox, select option, just everything! So I guessed it is possible and started looking for a workaround or any kind of hack.
I analyzed the old c++ addin using OutlookSpy tool and it turned out that it doesn't fill HTMLBody. I had to wade through a partial legacy code and found that it set PR_HTML MAPI property. Unfortunately I found also that this property is not available in vsto so I can't check if it helps.
So my questions are:
do you know any hacks to render HTML forms in Outlook using VSTO?
are there any differences using item.HTMLBody or PR_HTML MAPI property which can have impact on my problem?
if yes then can I set PR_HTML using C#? (I've checked free http://www.add-in-express.com/creating-addins-blog/2008/11/21/outlook-object-model-propertyaccessor-storageitem/ but it doesn't work for me - code doesn't execute when I add AddExpress.MAPI.dll)
Everything must be done programmatically so inserting using Outlook UI or exporting to Outlook from IE doesn't count. Also we can't use commercial third party tools like Redemption or Add-in Express.
Are you sure you posted the right picture? :-)
Keep in mind that Outlook uses Word to render HTML, so any input controls and scripts will not run.
I am in the process of developing an ActiveX control for embedding in Rockwell Automation's Factory Talk View. (See ActiveX DLL Error: Solved to see how great a start I got off to!)
At the moment I have an ActiveX control that seems to embed into the host system OK, but is not fully integrated into the VBA process. I believe that this is because I have not implemented some specific COM interface that is required, but I have no documentation as to what that is. I do know that standard MS controls like the Microsoft Forms 2.0 controls do implement the required interface and fully integrate.
The key functionality I am missing relates to a property that I need to set in order for my VBA code to actually see the ActiveX object. This property can be seen when opening the property panel for any activeX control placed on a Factory Talk screen, but NOT when looking at the properties of ActiveX controls embedded in (for example) Excel. Thus I am probably trying to chase down some custom Rockwell implementation. I am hoping that SO might be able to give me some aid into how to track down what I want based on recognizing the functionality it implements.
Now to the actual property. In Factory Talk the property is called "ExposeToVBA", and has a type "long". You have a choice of 3 values selected from a drop down list:
Not Exposed - When set to this, the controls name is not even visible to VBA code
Type Info Extension - Not sure what this does
VBA Control - VBA code can see and interact with the control.
When I select anything other than "Not Exposed" for my control, I get a warning dialog box with no text on it. For other controls I need to set it to "VBA Control" in order to interact with it in the VBA code (d'oh)
I suspect that the value of this property is translated into some calls to an ActiveX interface on the target control.
The Question
What I want to do is identify what interfaces something like a "Forms 2.0 Label" implements that would match the above functionality. And also perhaps how I could translate this into my C# based control (based on C# ActiveX control (CSActiveX))
I know its a long shot, but I'd appreciate any and all suggestions
This became moot when I found a canned Active-x control that had the functionality that I needed.
FWIW This is what I believe that I used: DMGraph
I'm trying to add DatePicker VBA control in an PowerPoint 2007 slide. But I couldn't find any such control.
I have added Microsoft Office 12.0 Object Library as well as Microsoft Excel and Powerpoint Object Library, but still I couldn't find any control related to DatePicker.
I'd love if someone can direct me to some article or documentation, tutorial to add it.
The control isn't included with Office/VBA. If it's installed on your PC, the answer posted by Jean-François Corbett will get you there, but your code won't work on other PCs unless they also have the needed control installed.

I need to retrieve only selected portion of a webpage (user open a webpage in web-browser control, then he/she would select some portion of a webpage, i just need only those selected portion/text) in vb.net in visual basic language. How to do ?
i am using microsoft visual studio 2008
Language: Visual Basic
FrameWork: vb.net 3.5
Perhaps here are some answers for you(first post attachment):
Manipulate/Change/Form Fill data in webpages using the Webbrowser control
In terms of IE's API, you can get the select text by getting the selection object via IHTMLDocument2::Selection the property, then create a range object via IHTMLSelectionObject::createRange. If the return range's type property is "Text", you can then query IHTMLTxtRange from it and get the selected text via IHTMLTxtRange::text.
It is unclear which webbrowser control you are referring to. There are 3 webbrowser controls in the .Net Framework, one in Windows Forms, one in WPF, and one in Silverlight. Anyway, you can call InvokeScript or use the unmanaged interface like csexwb's GetSelectedText, if one of the method is supported by your control library.
Next time mention which control library you are using when you ask the question. Merely mentioning the language you choose isn't enough to resolve the ambiguity in class names.
