I have a table that imports data - including date of birth. the format is dd.mm.yyyy - the db keeps throwing up the error - Birthdate must be 8 digits. The only validation I have for the field is "<date()" to ensure that a future date is not entered.
Help!
Hello,
I have encountered several problems with my Access 2000 application on the server at work within one day, and I am very frustrated. Your help is greatly appreciated! Please....
1/ Sometimes, ALL the tables and queries disappear from the database. I checked everything, nobody hide the objects. Do you know why? I even import new tables to see if those appear, they still do NOT show?? I even created blank database, try to import those tables "hidden", it promped need to be repaired it, then I looked back the original database, the tables re-appear; however, later on, it does have error, prompted "NOT a valid bookmark"?? When I add new records thru the form, it has the word "#error" on every fields....
2/ Some users can open, some can NOT open the same database on the same server. For those users can not open, the errors varies. For examples: it prompts that the "database needs to be repaired," after clicking "Yes", it prompts, it "could not open the database" OR "The database has been placed in a state by an unknown user that prevents it from being opened or locked" eventhough nobody open exclusively!! OR "The table 'MSysAccessObjects' is already opened exclusively by another user, or it is already open through the user interface and cannot be manipulated programmatically."
Have you seen any errors stated in 2/ in RED above. What should I do??
Please help. Thanks so much,
T

Good morning,
We keep having this error message when a group of our users try to open a MS Access 2000 application resides on a Netware server.
"The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object 'MSysDb'. Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly." Have any one seen this error before? How to solve it please! Please advice.
Thank you very much,
T.
Once in a while, the Access 2000 application on our server has this error below:
The database “network pathdatabasename.mdb” needs to be repaired or isn’t a database file. You or another user may have unexpected quit Microsoft Access while a Microsoft Access database was open. Do you want Microsoft Access to attempt to repair the database.
I tried to click the "OK" button to repair it, the first several times, it keeps saying that my computer name was using it so it could not been repair. I even re-boot my computer several times, still can not repair. The next day, I tried to repair it again, it ran about only two-fifth at the status bar, and the "Program Error...MS Access has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart your program. An error log is being created" keep popping up, so I could never repair the file.
Does anybody know WHY it happened and HOW to prevent it from needing to be repaired?
Thanks so much,

I'm working in Access 2000 for the first time and all was well until I introduced a wizard-created Switchboard. I created the Order Entry database using the Access wizard and copied the Switchboard form and tables into my database.
Since then I keep getting the following message:
"Error accessing file. Network connection may have been lost."
I've Compacted and Repaired but still keep getting the message. Does anyone have any ideas what's going on?

I have a "Client" table which has a "Date of Birth" field and the problem I am having is on in the data entry form the users type in "2/25" instead of "2/25/1965" on for the most part that's OK. But if the client DOB is 1930 or before then 2/25/2029 comes up.
I have found that the date format is tied to the Windows Regional settings and we are working on a network that doesn't allow me to adjust the settings.
I have tried to put a validation on the table for the field but then that makes it so you HAVE to enter something and can not leave that field blank if you want.
Any ideas?
Hi i know it is simple but can someone tell me how to work out an age of someone using their date of birth and the date now please. thanks i cannot remember the formula.

I am the secretary of an athletics club and have the task of using membership data to compile groups of athletes.:eek:
One of the fields that I have available is the date of birth of every athlete. It is entered in the form dd/mm/yyyy.
I would like to be able to query the database and display the age of each athlete.
I would also like to be able to query the database so that I can compile groups of athletes grouped by their ages as at 01/09/yyyy
These groups would be: Under 11 years,
over 10 years but under 13 years,
over 12 years but under 15 years,
over 14 years but under 17 years under 20 years.
over 19 years.
I have some understanding of using SQL view in Access but my overall knowledge must be viewed as "novice".
If you are able to help me with this problem I would be extremely grateful (as would our club), and I would also be obliged if you could keep instructions simple.
Many thanks
John:)
This is my first post to this group. I am building a database for a charity event and need to calculate the age of a person based on the Date Of Birth field in the table and add that number to a separate column in the table. Also, need to calculate the age as of a certain date (the beginning of the event). Thank you for any help.

I am a novice trying to create a school access 2000 database, I have a table that contains a DateOfBirth field and want to convert this field into Age (automatically add a new field), so i can then create a form from it and filter the pupils by age.
Ive read post http://forums.aspfree.com/showthread.php?p=112241 which is exactly what I want to do, but it doesnt go into the basic s, like where I put this code to get the field to change.
Please help
Thank you
I've a club database the records score for juniors on age groups that are set as of the 1st January each year. I would like to set this automatically from the date of birth. I have found some code that is very close to what I need apart from the fact it groups on the exact DOB resulting in changes to age group mid year.
'----------------------------Code Start--------------------------------
Public Function AgeGroup(dtmBirthDate As Date) As String
Dim intAge As Integer
'Age Calculation
intAge = DateDiff("yyyy", [dtmBirthDate], Now()) + _
Int(Format(Now(), "yyyy") < Format([dtmBirthDate], "yyyy"))
Select Case intAge
[code].....
I am using Access 2007, and am new to Access.
I would like to calculate the Age based on the Date of Birth , which is in dd/mm/yyyy
I use the below expression in Query but I get back #Error for most records; whereas the Age appears correctly for a few records.
Age: DateDiff ("yyyy", [BirthDate], Date())
I have a Date of Birth field in format DD/MM/YYYY and wish to set up 2 new fields one that calculates Age in Years and another that calculates Age in Months.
Thanks
I have this code for calculating the age from birthdate but i want if there is years no months or days appear
Public Function CalcAge(Birthdate As Date) As String
Dim intYears As Integer, intMonths As Integer, intDays As Integer
intMonths = DateDiff("m", Birthdate, Date)
intDays = DateDiff("d", DateAdd("m", intMonths, Birthdate), Date)
[Code] ....
I have a [DOB] field with birth dates. I have another field [DOBExp] where I want to automatically calculate at date 15 days out, but exclude weekends and holidays. I have a separate table listing the holidays.
Would like a formula to use in my first table for this. Have no clue how to do this.
I don't seem to find any query formula in the forum where the age changes on the date of birth. I tried all the once I could find but all of them seem to calculate the age as of 1 January. I find it a bit strange that it doesn't work.
I got BirthDate and Date in the table I want to update the age column back in the history with an update query.
Code:
Int(DateDiff("yyyy",[BirthDate],[Date]))
Code:
Int(DateDiff("d", [BirthDate], DateSerial(DatePart("yyyy,[Date]), 1, 1))/365.25)
Code:
Int(DateDiff("yyyy",[Birthdate],[Date]))+Int(Format([Date],"mmdd")<Format([Birthdate],"mmdd"))
All the above change the age on January 1. It's not a train smash but weird.
I am creating a database with over 500 entries. One thing that would speed up the process of entering all of this data manually would be if I could type in the birth date and the age would be automatically calculated. Is there any way this can be done? It is all in the same table.

I have a database that currently has security in place so that users input their own usernames and passwords to access the database. The users have recently been added to a windows 2000 server and I want to be able to use their windows 2000 server logon credentials to provide them with automatic access to the database. Is there anyone out there who knows how to set this up? It is a rather urgent request if you could get back to me either on this forum or via email

I am opening and closing a series of Excel 2000 Workbooks using Access 2000 VBA and want this sequence to be able to complete without any human intervention.
However, there are 2 instances when this stops and waits for a human option to be selected:
1. When the spreadsheet is password protected
2. When the spreadsheet has automatic links I get the message:
"The Workbook you opened contains automatic links to information in another workbook. Do you want to update this workbook with changes made to the other workbook?"
How can I code it so that in situation 1 it skips this file and in situation 2 it automatically defaults to do not update?
Any help most appreciated.

If I have a report in MS Access 2000 generated based on the criteria selected of a project with work order "9999" with the labor costs, materials costs and the Totals of each crew1, crew2,... and I would like to have those expenditures populated in corresponding cel in Excel for each crew, HOW would I do it?
To think it out loud, could I create a button on a form, so when I select the criteria for the work order, and when I click the button, it should refresh/update the Exel file with the new data...?? How do I write VBA code for that...?
Please help...Thank you so much....
