In previous releases of Microsoft Access, a minimized form would display at least a few characters of the form caption before showing the restore, max, close buttons.

Sample:
https://1drv.ms/u/s!AhezOlimTLoah_40R2mSOThcj5cFiQ?e=BlON97

In current builds of Access, the restore, max, close buttons consume all of the width of the minimized window, leaving no room for even a portion of the form caption to be displayed.

Sample:

If multiple forms are minimized, the user is no longer able to make an informed choice about which minimized Window to restore.

Suggestion:
Please make the width of minimized forms wider so that the caption (which is already there) can display at least a few characters before the restore, max, close buttons.

Please fix the combo box RowSource datatype binding bug.

The bug is as follows:
1. Create a table [Table1] with two columns:
- [NumberField], datatype: Number, Double
- [TextField], datatype: Short Text

Add 1 Row to the table:
[NumberField] = 10
[TextField] = "Some Text 10"

1. Create a combo box:



2. Set the RowSource of the combo box to this:
   SELECT NumberField, TextField FROM Table1;




3. Add a Button to the form: [cmbErrorExample]
   Add On Click Event:
   If Me.cmbErrorExample.RowSource = "SELECT NumberField, TextField FROM Table1;" Then
   Me.cmbErrorExample.RowSource = "SELECT TextField, NumberField FROM Table1;"
   Me.cmbErrorExample.DefaultValue = "Some Text 10"
   Me.cmbErrorExample.Value = "Some Text 10"
   Else
   Me.cmbErrorExample.RowSource = "SELECT NumberField, TextField FROM Table1;"
   Me.cmbErrorExample.DefaultValue = 10
   Me.cmbErrorExample.Value = 10
   End If

Now open the form:
Drop the combo box, you should see the one row with values:
10 | Some Text 10
Select the row - the value of the field becomes 10.

Now, click the button. The Rowsource should change to:
"SELECT TextField, NumberField FROM Table1;"

However, if the user has already made a selection as instructed above, error appers:

Error Occurred in Sub cmdToggleRowSourceClick of Module FormForm1

Error The value you entered isn't valid for this field.

OK

Expected: the code should be able to programmatically change the Rowsource of the combo box.

Actual: Because the unbound field has had a numeric value assigned as a value, the programmatic change of the RowSource of the combo box to a text value results in a type mismatch that should not be happening.

This used to be possible in Access 2003, but in Access 2019 the combo box appears to change itself to be bound to a numeric data type, even though it is an UNBOUND field.

This is a problem when creating forms that change combo box data sources programmatically.

I purchased Office 365 Business so that I could use Microsoft Access. As it stand the application does not work as designed. When you go in to Form view you see limited fields. When you go in to design view you can see more of the fields. I've spent several hours with Technical support trying to resolve the issues with no success. The problem as explained to me is the Home Inventory template is not compatible with Office 365. So my thoughts is why is if available as a template if it's not compatible. I would like to see the issues with the template resolved.

Opening/using forms that contain ActiveX controls, notably "Microsoft TreeView Control, version 6.0" cause Access to crash since at least version 16.0.11727.20210 on the Monthly channel. No versions in the Semi-annual (Targeted) channel seem to have this bug (yet).

The forms affected usually crash within moments of opening, but occasionally will work to some degree for several seconds.

This Control would have a Modern Appearance that we see on a lot of Websites using the Bootstrap technology. When the User resizes the Application, it would respond and collapse to a hash icon of some type.

This Control would be Table Sourced, where the Developer could enter Custom Search Terms and then map it to an existing Form Object. A default could be set to inherit the existing Custom Category, or inherit the Parent Child Navigation Buttons on a Navigation Control. The Developer could Customize from there. The Possibilities are endless.

The built-in Navigator exposes too many objects to the end-user and is somewhat confusing to them.

I feel that if we have a Tree Control of a Modern Touch and Feel, where the Child Items would flow out as the User hovers their Mouse of the Parent Node.
