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?
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 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??
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.
I got the following code from this forum to create shortcut on the desktop.. ================== Set objShell = New WSHShell Set objShortcut = objShell.CreateShortcut(objShell.SpecialFolders("AllUsersDesktop") & "" & sShortcut) objShortcut.TargetPath = sDB objShortcut.WindowStyle = "3"
objShortcut.SAVE ================= I have Access 2003..but file format is 2000 because others have access 2000. This code works great on my machine..but getting error on access 2000 machine..It does not recognize "New WSHShell" in the above code.
-------------------error message Compile Error: User-defined type not defined -------------------
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.

The expression On Load you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: A problem occured while Microsoft Access was communicating with the OLE server or ActiveX Control.
Also same message but for on current.
Here's my code
Public Function WinName() Me.username = GetWindowsUserName End Function
Public Function Edit() If Me!username = [tblpersonnel.username1] Then AllowEdits = True ElseIf Me.username = "martiscm" Then AllowEdits = True ElseIf Me.username = "larsong" Then AllowEdits = True Else: AllowEdits = False End If End Function
Also once I'm in the form, if I navigate to the next record I get the same message but it's for On click.
i seem to be geting this message ( attached ) everytime i load the form for the first time. once i click ok, i can the enter data into the field and save as normal. if i load the form and got to a different field, it seems to be ok and the mesaage does not come back but it is definately there when i first click in the same field.
i have checked the form properties, field properties and code but i cannot see anything.
what usually causes this?
the text is the right size the form is not in design view
i cant seem to find if the field is read only but after the box, i can enter data so that should remove any read only issues.
I have a multi-user MS Access97 database application. It is causing one of the users (and I have only once had the error message myself) the following error message:
"There isn't enough free memory to update the display. Close unneeded programs and try again."
This error message occurs when the user is doing data entry via the forms and navigating between forms in the database. The form, on which the error occurs becomes oversized and does not display all the information. The user is forced to shut down the database, re-open it, and then it works fine....but eventually the error re-occurs.
I found Microsoft's article 236977, but it applies to working with Forms in Access 2000. This problem is happening in Access 97, and none of the causes listed in the article apply.
Has anyone every come across this....and do you know of a solution?
I am getting this error on a access 97 database that we have been using for years. the message just started popping. use are still able to access the database, yet this message will not got away.
this member of the replica set has expired because it hasn't been syncronized with another m ember of the replica set.

I am trying to export from Access to Excel. I am relatively new to this process. I am receiving an error that I am not using a valid path. I have tried to recreate the former path without any luck.
What I had done was to delete some old information that was making the former Excel sheet too large and create a more up to date database. I had to reformat the spreadsheet and export the new information to excel but when I pull it in it will not pull into the shared network drive without giving me the error message.
I have created a Asset database using MS Access 2010 & the same was published in SharePoint portal. Post publishing, all the "Query & Forms" are working as excepted but the "Reports" are not working.
The "Reports" is designed with "Group & Sort" option. Post grouping am able to see the "=Sum([Expression])" (i.e. Sum of the Value) value in MS Access Locally but not in SharePoint. Once i published in SharePoint, am getting "#Error" message for all the below expression wherever i have used in my reports design.
Expression Used: Below expressions are works fine locally & getting #Error in SharePoint. 1. =Sum() 2. ="Page " & [Page] & " of " & [Pages] 3. =Now() 4. =Date()
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?
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...?
I have recently been doing a conversion for my boss for a access 2000 database (both front and backend) to a MSSQL backend.
I finished the conversion today (as quite a lot of the code / queries ran slow due to access running the queries locally rather than on the server). And tested it on my and my boss's machine with no problems so he gave the go ahead to update everybody to our new mssql 2000 backend with the modified frontend.
This is when the problems started; We had two different sets of forms for accessing one of our databases systems - the log system, one is the original dynaset based form, and the other is a newer set which uses snapshot views and preforms updates via queries. Nobody uses the old dyanset system apart from my boss and one of the administrative team as they have things on that window which they need to see. About 30 minutes into the release of the new database the system frooze up on my bosses computer and nobody could create a new log (the server was timing out). I assumed this had something to do with the old dynaset's creating locks on the table.
I offlined the database and kicked everybody out of the front end, turned it on again and tied again, this time banning everybody from the dynaset system. Within 10 minutes another computer frooze up, again with a timeout on the insert query. I discovered that after you had added a new log to the database it would timeout on all subquent additions (something it hadn't done during testing) . Further investigatiion showed it was the snapshot list window causing the error, so coded the add log window to close the list before preforming the insert query and then reopen it afterwards. This allowed my machine to make multible additions without flaw. So I released a new client to everybody. 15 minutes later it was timing out again, but this time there you could not even make one new record.
I checked for locks on the table though the server management table and couldn't find any for the Log table. I have restarted the SQL server box and with no avil. So I reverted our backend to the access mdb file and told people to use the old client.
I am at a complete lose to why this is happening, if anybody has had any expericences like this or knows the cause please tell me.
Some information on the database in question.
It was made as an access 2 database all intergrated into one file, then it was seperated into two files (frontend and backend). Upgraded to Access 97, then to 2000 before this final update to MSSQL 2000.
The log system has two main tables. The first is the log title / info table which links (one to many) to a log entry table. This problem only occurs on the main log table and does not appear to be reoccurring anywhere else within the database. The main log table has just under 18,000 rows in it.
Not being a code person. This code worked great for 2003, but we just installed 2007. I get an error message when the this code runs:
Its a complie error User-defined type not found

Has anyone had this problem: You make an access mdb database "X" with table "A"- which includes autonumber field and few more fields (text or something else). Than You make another mdb file "Y"- which contains link to table "A" in mdb file "X". When You open mdb file "Y" and You open linked table - You can not see data from the table - instead it showes "Autonumber" (text) in every field (autonumber field and other text fields). Then You close the linked table and open it again and everythnig is ok. And every time it shows this error on first opening. On another computer (with the same windows instalation) everything is ok. I tryed to reinstall windows (on the machine with the error) - clean install - and the problem is fixed. Another time I install the same windows again - and the error is back. Then I reinstall the windows again (clean install) - and this time error is still present. I tryed to install another access (2003 instead XP) - but it doesn't help. What is going on ?
