Access 2000 - Strange Error Message
May 20, 2005
Hi all
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?

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,

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

"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,

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!

I'm geting error messages when open my form.
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

Hi,
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.
its vv frustrating.
regs,
Nigel

Hi...can you help?
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?
Thanks,
BJS

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 received a very strange error this morning.
I was going to create a new query with the simple query wizard, but as soon as selected a data source I got a message saying "The expression on Got Focus you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: The text you entered isn't an item in the list."
After this I can select a datasource, but the cursor remains in hourglass mode. It almost seems like this is a run-time error, when I am merely trying to create a new query. In addition to which, I haven't set any events to run on "got focus". Anyone have any ideas on what is causing this and how it can be fixed?
Thanks,
Chris

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 work in an environment with 7 computers networked to the same database. Until last week the database worked fine on all computers.
One computer was wiped clean and reinstalled with XP pro sp2 with all updates, office XP with all updates and also every other programs needed etc etc...
Now the database that every one uses will open up but will crash when the date filter is used in any form/report/query... This is the only computer this happens on and the error sometimes comes back with the following number 2147418113 but is intermittent. I dont think it is anything in the VB as it works totally on every other computer and worked fine on this one until reinstall of everything...
any thoughts anyone??...or has anyone ever heard of this??

I have a bound form with a bound subform which is in continuous or datasheet view. I have been experiencing a strange problem of late. After i complete the first record of the subform and then move on to the second record , sometimes i get strange messages like :-
1) The Microsoft Jet Database Engine Stopped the process because you and another user are attempting to change the data at the same time.
2) Invalid Argument
3) Unrecognised database format c:windows empjet(something).tmp
4) Not a valid bookmark
These errors once they appear wont go away even if you try to ignore them. they just keep coming and each of the columns has an "#error# written in it. you have to close the module and start again. Whats more if you enter exactly the same data again, they do not show up again i.e. random errors. and it happens only when you complete the first record.
To clarify, these errors appear even in a single user environment. i do not change the recordsource or link fields properties at run time for the subform or mainform.
is there anything i have overlooked in form design / code ? Please help me out.

I have a database that keeps track of street light inspections.
There is a form with inspection info and a subform with any faults found - Works Fine
There is a report with the same information - Works Fine'ish
The report allways used to work fine but for no apparent reason it previews fine but when printing I get the following message and the subreport information does not print (although if I open the sub report seperately it prints fine).
'This expression is typed incorrectly, or it is too complex to be evaluated. For example, a numeric expression may contain too many complicated elements. Try simplifying the expression by assigning parts of the expression to variables.'
I am banging my head against the wall with this one. It used to print fine and I have made no changes, apart from data. Have tried compact/repair to no avail.
Could someone please point me in the right direction, my head is hurting...

Hi
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

many thanks
