Creating MDE File From Access 2003
May 26, 2005All..
I have an access 2003 application I have front end and back end separately. When I click "Make MDE File" from tools menu, nothing happens.
When checked the Windows Task manager(Windows 2000), CPU usage is 100% and MS ACCESS is not responding. There are no messages.
Anyone experienced this problem ?

Importing XML File Into Access 2003
May 31, 2005Hi, I have an xml which fields of text and some of numbers.
When I do: File --> Get External Data --> Import; I'm able to import the file.
The problem is that not all the data is entered in the fields. The colums containing the text are excluded.
While importing, I did choose the option "Structure and Data", so it should work.
Any suggestions on to why it is doing that?
Thanks.
Workgroup File In MS Access 2003
Jun 29, 2005I created a Workgroup file (Project.mdw), assigned different Permissions to different Groups, and put different Users in appropriate Groups.
The above setup is working fine and just as required. But, if I remove or rename the Workgroup file, MS Access does not look for it, creates in its own Workgroup file and starts just as usual - without asking for the Password, or caring about the Permissions and/or restrictions set.
How can I make the database file bound to the MDW file, so that it does not open without it.
Dbf File Not Importing To Access 2003
Nov 3, 2005I have a dbf file that I need to somehow get the table data out of, and into access, excel, or some other usable format. I searches the MS Knowledge Base and read several articles on updating the Jet 4.0 drivers (up to date) and updating Foxpro ODBC drivers, etc. I also searched these forums, and I have yet to find any solution that works.
I think this dbf file might be Foxpro, but I'm not sure. I don't know anything about Foxpro. I was getting an error message "unexpected error from external database driver (8961)", until I read an MS article stating that I should change the name of the Borland folder to BorlandOld and try re-importing. Now Access 2003 just says: "external table not in the specified format".

Jan 15, 2008hello good afternoon.
i am trying to open different file types using ms access. the following piece of code i found would only open 'word' documents. how do i make this piece of code more flexible to open pdf documents and excel as well. as it is currently i have a txt field on my form and if the path in the txt fiels leads to a word document when i click a button the word file opens. i want it to open a pdf or excel doc if it was in the txt field
[code]
Sub OpenWordDoc(strDocName As String)
Dim objApp As Object
'Opens the document
Set objApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
objApp.Visible = True

Importing Fixed Length File Into Access 2003
Sep 6, 2006I want to import a fixed length file into access 2003, it can only be imported directly into access 97/2000. This site, link http://www.ams.usda.gov/science/pdp/03data.txt
has the idea, but the problem is I can find the "2003 Data zip file" which this
site is refering to. - I have looked for it on the ms office 2003 cd,but I still
can find it.
Please can someone tell me where I can find de "2003 Data zip file"?
Txt File Field DDMMYYYY Fails To Import Into Access'07, But OK In 2003
Apr 1, 2008Hi there anyone and everyone.
My problem concerns importing a date from a txt file. I've been doing this for years with '97 and 2003 with no problem, but with 2007 I am now getting import errors which I can't resolve. The files, either fixed width or delimited, contain date information in the format ddmmyyyy (without any date separators). After importing I receive an import error message, and the relevant field in the table is blank.
In Access '97 or 2003 I can import date information directly into an Access date/time field by using an import specification where I have set the date delimiter to blank (by default this is set to "/" , so I simply delete this to leave the box empty). Using this method a file containing "25122007" (without the inverted commas) will be imported into Access as a date, and can be subsequently manipulated as date without having to resort to any fancy reformatting tricks. Obviously the import will not be sucessful if the date delimiter in the import spec is left as "/", or set to anything else, eg "." or ":".
But now that I've updated to Access 2007 this is just not possible no matter what I do or try. I can only import a date if the txt data has a separator, and that the same separator is set in the import specification.
In some new databases I have done a couple of workarounds, importing it as text into a text field, then using a CDate(Format(CLng([date]),"00/00/0000")) type expression in a subsequent query, but this is a pain having to do it, a really backward step.
But the real pain is older databases ('97 or 2003) which have been converted up to '07; they no longer work, and there is a lot of redesign to be done unless somone can tell me what I'm doing wrong.
Unfortunately I am not able to change the format of the dates in the data I receive, so the solution has to come from my end (ie Access). Surely Access 2007 should be able to recognise 25122007 as a date? All ideas gratefully received.
I've been happily using various versions of Access since 1994 and I've learnt lots along the way, and have always previously been able to sort out problems that I've come across without resorting to a forum, but I'm now really puzzled by a problem that I have come across in Access 2007. So although this is my first post I certainly wouldn't call myself a newbie. Hopefully I have described the problem accurately (it is realy simple in fact), but very happy to provide more information if required.
Many thanks (in anticipation)

Forms :: How To Open A Specific File Using Search Function In Access 2003
Dec 5, 2014I have a access 2003 database, and i am wondering if i can't setup a search function in a form that will open a file in windows explorer?
What i would like to do is have a test box that i enter in a number for example: 1234 then have a button named "Search" hit that button and it opens a corresponding file in windows explorer named 1234, or just opens that folder directly..
General :: Possible To Permanently Display File Path In Access 2003 Main Title Bar?

View 1 Replies View Related2003 Problem With Read-Only File Attribute.
Nov 3, 2005I have a Front-End Access Data Project file (ADE compiled format for distribution) that I purposely have the Read-Only file attribute set to True.
I've been using it this way for about 7 years starting with Access 97 and the current version is 2000.
I am upgrading the app to 2003 now and everything with the conversion is fine except when I set the Read-Only file attribute to True it all of a sudden when starting it no longer connects to the Back-End (sql server) and displays a "form load cancelled" error before hanging.
If I disable the Read-Only attribute, everything is fine again, but I prefere not to do this because that will require me to rework my auto updater.
I use it this way because it prevents bloating of the file and allows for my auto updater to determine new version by using the file modification date.
Any Idea's?
Can Office Access 2003 Runtime-Based Solutions Applies To Access 2007?

Locking User Access To Database Objects (MS Access 2000 And 2003)
Apr 15, 2007I have two database applications and they are:
- the (A) application is for administration use.
- the (B) application is for normal users use.
the idea is that: I made the (A) application for administrators who have full control over the database objects (tables, forms, queries, and so on ...).
the (B) application I have created for normal users who will have only to use forms to insert some data and display data only.
but the two applications has a respective table called "vacation request" table. where I linked them, so the both administrators and users can share the data.
The real question is that: How can I prevent the users from seeing the database objects in their application. I used the database options which have helped me in hidding the database objectives when the users open the application, but unfortunately they managed to access to the database objects by pressing the special keys.
I would like to have an access to the (B) application when I want to make some modifications to the forms and then lock it from users where they only have to use the forms for requesting vacations and view the vacations.
Forms :: Multi Select Listbox Access 2003 Code Gives Syntax Error In MS Access 2010
Oct 24, 2013I've been using the following code successfully in Access 2003 & now I need to migrate to Access 2010. The purpose of the code is to use the items that the user selects in the list box to build the criteria of a query. Access 2010 keeps giving me a syntax error when I try to run the query & I don't know why:
My code is:
On Error GoTo Err_Command151_Click
' Declare variables
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef
Dim varItem As Variant
Dim strCriteria As String
Dim strSQL As String
[Code] .....
The syntax error I get in Access 2010 is:
Syntax Error in query expression 'SELECT * FROM
qryContractListSummarybyDateContract3TYPEBREAK WHERE
qryContractListSummarybyDateContract3TYPEBREAK.Rep ortableName IN('Adbri

Table Problems Moving From Access 2003 -> Access 2007
Jun 19, 2007Attached is a screenshot of the relationships in a database I built a couple of years ago. It's worked absolutely fine in Access 2003 and currently has over 18,000 customers with associated information in it.
However, when I open the database in Access 2007 the performance is awful. All the forms are very slow to respond when tabbing between form elements. I've experimented by reducing the number of form elements calling on related data on a given page and whilst this improves performance it reduces usability - something I don't want to compromise on especially since Access 2007 should be able to cope with this.
My next question is therefore whether I've got the most efficient underlying table design and I can't see any other way of doing it than my current method so I'd be grateful for any feedback or advice anyone has.
Subform Referenceing Problem Between Access 2000 And Access 2003
Apr 19, 2005I am working on a massave aplication that has been running in Access 2000, but recently several of the file sharing users have installed Access 2003 because of the limited availability of Access 2000. All the users are using the same file off the server.
The problem we are having is that when we reference a subform in the "[Forms]![FormName]![SubformName]![FeildName]" Access 2003 does not recognize it and returns an error. I have found that if I will modify it to "[Forms]![FormName]![SubformName].[Form]![FeildName]" it is recognized in both 2000 and 2003.
To try and change every instance of a subform reference will take forever and I am garuteed to overlook something. We reference subforms all over our program, missing any one of them would be a disaster. Before I went to the tedious task of looking through everything I just wanted to throw the situation out there and see if any of you had any great ideas on how to get it fixed efficiently. I would apreciate any ideas.

Problems When Using A DB Created In Access 2002 (XP) In Access 2003
Jun 17, 2005I have an Access DB that I created in Access XP. It works perfectly when used in Access XP. When used in an Access 2003 environment some of the functions don't work anymore. I have users who use Office XP and users who use Office 2003. Does anybody know how to make this DB work in Access 2003 without having to do wholesale code changes?
I have already changed the security to "Low" to bypass the security feature built in in Jet 4.0 but it didn't help. I might have to uninstall Windows XP SP2 to make it work because I know that the application works in an Office 2003 environment with Windows XP SP1 only. But I'm trying to avoid having to uninstall XP SP2 because it's a pain. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
My workstation environment is as follows:
OS: Windows XP SP2
Office: Office 2003 SP1
Jet: 4.0

Access 2003 Buttons Not Working In Access 2000
Sep 14, 2005Hi,
I've created a database in access 2003 with the default file format being Access 2000. Everything works fine on my computer and many others, all of whom are running different versions of access (2000, 2002 & 2003).
I have not had any problems with this database until recently and in the last few weeks we have had 2 users, both of them being Access 2000 users who have had the same problem.
The problem they are having is that when they click on any of the switchboard items, the buttons depress an then come back up again when the cursor is moved away, but nothing else happens - no action, no error message - nothing!!! Its the same for all of the buttons on the switchboard.
Does anyone know what is causing this? I have another computer with Access 2000 on it and this works fine, as it does on several other computers runiing Access 2000, I just cannot understand why it is not working on these 2 particular machine.......
Many thanks in anticpation.

Deploying Access 2003 Project In Different Access Versions
Dec 28, 2005Hello,
I have two questions related to deplying an Access project I have been working on.
1. I started developing the project in Access 2000, but midway upgraded to Office 2003 and so the remainder of the project has been developed in Access 2003. Things seem to be fine, except that in the top most title bar, after the project name, there appears the following text:
xxxxx: Database (Access 2000 file format)
where xxxx is the name of the .mdb file.
Why is this appearing and should I have done something or do something to make it a Access 2003 format?
2. I am at the point of deplying the db to a small group of users (about 5). Some of them may have Access 2000 or Access 2002. Should I be doing something in particular to make sure things work in their machines.
Any pointers to what may be problems or what I should do will be much appreciated.
Thank you.
Convert Access 2000 Database To Access 2003
Sep 27, 2006Hi,
A few years ago I’ve made an access database on access 2000. The problem is that now I’ve installed the office 2003, and I can’t make the database work properly.
At first says that are missing those files: “tshoot.ocx”, “msioff9.ocx” and “msowc.dll”; so, I’ve copy them from another computer using office 2000 and now only complains about “msioff9.ocx” saying that my database contains a reference incomplete to it.
Is there no other way to convert my database do work properly with access 2003? What can I do?
Regards
Access 2002 And Access 2003 Compatibility Issue
Nov 7, 2006I have an Access db that is going to be shared by two different users. One user has Access 2003 and the other has Access 2002. Will there be any problems using this setup if both the users are accessing the MDB file at the same time?
Thanks,
