I see this in both Forms and Reports, but it's more irritating in Report Design as the labels are more likely to have visible borders. Sometimes a report gets copied and repurposed to a similar task or the definition of a data set gets updated. When you edit the text in an existing label, the border automatically collapses around the new text, making it look ugly and poorly aligned to the other neatly arranged labels on the Report/Form. I don't care if it clips, I'll resize the font from the ribbon. I don't care if it leaves extra space - it's supposed to, so it looks like the rest of them... I only noticed this recently, maybe I'm just designing more than before, but either way - it's terrible unproductive behavior. I might as well start from scratch, if I can't reuse an existing design, that took hours to make.

Hello,

Where I work I seem to have found some bugs in MS Access 64 bit (not in 32 bit) relating to using VBA to call update queries.

When calling an Update query from the current database via a 'qdf' object that has one or more long text fields to be updated, and supplying the values for those updates via Long Text parameters, it seems that supplying either a 1 or 2 character value can cause Access to crash when the qdf is executed, depending on the position of the parameter in the list of parameters in the query definition. If the parameter is later in the list, an invalid argument error is thrown instead.

There is also an additional bug where a leading or trailing backslash causes an invalid argument error. This also seems to affect short text fields.

I don't know how to report these bugs to MS directly which is why I've posted here.

I don't have the code available to me at the moment, but I will see if I can reply with an example soon.

You probably should have a category, just for Access Charts, but anyway....
Using Dates in the chart comes up as numbers, and as such, the graph always shows up with lines starting from 0 instead of the minimum date. I know we have a minimum property, but Excel understands dates and it would be nice if Access could do the same.
Stacked bars swaps the x and y, so when I want to assign a field to the X line, I have to add the field into the Y list, and visa-versa. This is somewhat frustrating.
Also, can we have a Reverse Order option because I end up having to write one query for a form I'm using, and then having to create another query with a different ORDER BY for the chart. Seems an overkill.
Lastly, I would love it if the chart title (or subtitle) could make a reference to a form text box instead of having to use the forms OnLoad or OnCurrent event to update it.
Thank you
