The Orders and Developer Solutions sample databases that are included with earlier versions of Microsoft Access were not included with Access 2000.

The Orders and Developer Solutions sample databases for Access 2000 are now available

Orders   The Orders sample application is a sample order entry and invoicing system. Its features include the ShowEvents form, which helps you see the order in which events occur when you are working with forms and controls, and custom data filtering capabilities that you can use in addition to the filtering functionality provided by Access. The initial chapters of Microsoft Access 2000: Building Applications with Forms and Reports explain how to build the features shown in the sample application.

Developer Solutions   The Developer Solutions sample application contains examples of the forms, reports, and interface elements you most commonly use to create applications. From changing a form’s toolbars in response to events to creating a crosstab report with dynamic column headings, the objects in Developer Solutions illustrate the main areas of application design. This sample application also includes procedures that you might find useful as you develop your own applications—for example, you will find procedures that link tables at startup, close all objects when the user exits the application, and capitalize the first letter of every word in a field.

This demonstration database shows various methods of using the Flex Grid
ActiveX control in an Access 2000 (or later) database. Flex Grid controls can be
used to show data from a table or query on a form in a format which is not possible
using standard Access controls.

Here's an interesting method of sorting columns in a continuous form. In this case, a subform is used, but the same can be applied to a main form. All the code is behind the form, so there is no need for a regular module.

In the attached Access 97 demo, all this code is in the "sfrmVST" form (a subform).

The first thing to do is to set up each column's title label with a consistant naming convention; "lblxxxxx". Then, each label has a "Tag" property value that contains the name of the 'field' it represents.

There is also another label that is set far to the left of the form. This particular label is special in a couple of ways. First, it's font is set to Marlett and it's visible property is set to "No". The caption of this label is the number "5". It is also important that the label be named: "lblSortIndicator". The "OnClick" event of this label should contain the following code:

Me.lblSortIndicator.Visible = False
Me.OrderBy = ""

I have been using this code since 1993 with Access 2.0. The download file includes the Access 2.0 version,. I have also included the upgraded versions for Access 97, Access 2000, and Access 2007. 

It has a Zoom Box, Calendar and Calculator created with just native Access controls. The pop up forms can be used to edit the data in as many  text box controls as needed. The controls can be on the same form or multiple forms.

The company that originally deployed this product no longer supports it. The product has since given it to public domain  soley as an "as is" device. Their information has been stripped out of the attachments and manual. This tool is what it is and is considered "skilled" to "advanced" for level of developer skills to manipulate successfully.

Basically, you're on your own with this one. But it is an excellent portrayal of Access' capabitlies.

The download includes both  Access 97 and Access 2000 formats of these two files:

1) Orchid (the demo)

2) DesGrid (the un-altered components) 

Each contains a Month-Grid and an Hour-Grid. Also included is a PDF of the Manual.
