Libris Design 6.0 will be making its debut at the California Library Association Annual Convention in Sacramento, California, on November 11, 2006. A mini-workshop will provide a sneak preview of database enhancements and attendees will have the opportunity to order their pre-release copy. Watch this site for further information on how to get this new and improved version!
If you are getting #name and/or ?description in your Reports instead of your inventory items and space calculations, then you need to reset the Macro Virus Security Protection Level. In newer versions of MS Access, this feature comes preset to the highest level of protection, which disables all macros. These macros are the basis of the “behind the scenes” functionality of these reports.
Here’s the solution: Open MS Access — not Libris Design — but MS Access. Select Tools from the top Tool Bar. Then click on Macros. If Macros is not visible, use the downward facing arrow to open up the entire selection list. Click on Macros and then select Security from the list. When the menu opens, select the lowest level of security. (Click OKAY to the warning message). When you reopen Libris Design your reports will be restored to full functionality. Why did this happen? Maybe you have a new computer or a new version of the software, or you loaded the program onto a different machine. Fix this once and you won’t have to worry about it again.
