When was access 2010 released

Moreover, the new SingleStep macro action lets you enter single-step mode at any point in your macro, so that you can see how your macro performs one action at a time.

You can use these in conditional expressions to control running macros, or to pass data to and from reports or forms, or for any other purpose that needs a temporary storage place for a value.

Create a macro As of Access , a macro or macro group can be held in a macro object, or a macro can be inserted into any event property of a form, report, or control. Macro Designer features Access including the later versions too has a new Macro Designer that allows effortless creation of complex macros at the same time decreasing coding errors. The designer is used to build the list of actions that you want to execute when the macro runs.

Single Step Executes the macro one at a time. Once you click Step command button, the macro executes from one macro to another. To stop all the macro actions, click Stop All Macros command button. To continue to run the macro, click Continue command button. Collapse Actions This works opposite to the Expand Actions tool. Expand All It expands the macro actions and the collapsed block in the Macro Designer. Collapse All It collapses the macro actions and expanded block in the Macro Designer.

Show All Actions When selected, all the macro actions are displayed in the drop-down list of the Action column. To use the Large Number data type for support in linking to or importing from external sources, you'll first need to select an option in the Access Options dialog box.

At the bottom of the options dialog you'll see the Data Type Support Options section. We're pleased to let you know that we are re-introducing dBASE file support. Having trouble finding the specific property you want on the Property Sheet among the dozens of properties available? Sorting on the Property Sheet for forms and reports is here! It's never been easier to find a specific property on the Property Sheet. Forms and reports contain dozens of properties spread among several tabs which sometimes means it's hard to find the one you want.

If you know the specific name of the property you want, sorting the list makes it easier to find. Open the Property Sheet when you're in design mode for forms and reports and you'll see a sort toggle button in the upper right corner. The default setting, unsorted, lists the properties in the original order you're used to seeing in Access. We've added a new property to controls called Label Name so you can associate a label control with another control.

Previously, you had to "cut" a label control and then "paste" it on another control to associate it. Now with the new Label Name property, you can easily type in the name of a label control to associate it. Associating a label name with a control promotes accessibility because assistive technologies can now detect and indicate the association.

When Access loses the ODBC connection to an external data source, users have to close and re-open their Access databases in order to continue working with objects that use data from those external data sources. Access doesn't attempt to re-establish the dropped connection even if the connection is valid again and there is nothing that users can do to make Access try and reconnect to the external data source. We've improved this experience so that now if Access loses the ODBC connection to an external data source, Access tries to reconnect to the data source automatically.

In this scenario, you'll now see the following experience:. If Access loses the ODBC connection to an external data source you're trying to use, you'll see an error message describing the failure. Access now attempts to reconnect to the data source automatically when performing operations that require a connection to an external data source.

If the retry is successful, you can continue working with the data and database objects without having to close and re-open Access.

If the retry fails, you won't be able to work with objects that use the dropped external data sources but you can continue working with other areas of your database that aren't dependent upon the unreachable data sources. If you attempt to use data or other objects again that rely on the external data connections, Access tries again to reconnect to the external data source.

We're continuing our effort to improve the accessibility of Access for all customers. In Access , you'll see many new improvements across the Access landscape. Here are some improvements you'll see when using Windows Narrator and other assistive technology:.
