I am linking the Access tables with another Access Database. But after exiting from Ms Access application links are not getting saved. the version of both the DB are Access 2003.
View RepliesI have written a database in Access 2003, saved as an Access 2000 format. This runs fine on Windows XP workstations. When I install the same system on a Windows 7 system, my login screen launches, the user is able to enter in their name and password. Then nothing happens. What is supposed to happen is a form opens up after the password is entered that applies security written in code based on the user.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am using a networked database built by somebody else. I have added a networked DYMO labeller which runs via a simple report in Access 2003.
The probelm I am having is that the default label type I specified in the report (30321) keeps changing, it will change intermitantly and to any available Dymo label listed in the paper size. Nobody else has access to the reports to change it.
One day I come in and the label has changed to a Video Top (30326) label the next day it is a File Folder (30330) label.....the Dymo is having no probelm in any other applications and it doesnt seem to be a probelm in any of the databases I have built which are also networked.
Any ideas would be appreciated....getting sick of wasting labels and resetting the default all the time.:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :confused:
I am setting up a database with an image linked to each record. I have installed Photo Editor as required to display jpeg files. However, when I try to insert object in the table field, Photo Editor does not appear as an option under 'Object Type'. How can I use Photo Editor as my OLE server to display jpegs? Or, can someone suggest a better way to display images on forms? I'm a newbie, so although I'll try more advanced programming if required, I will need quite detailed step-by-step instructions :)
Thanks!
i have a database in access 2003 when i open it with access 2003 it shows data in table but when i open same table in access 2007 it shows only header rows , no data
how can i see this data into access 2007 or excel 2007.i want to link these table data with excel 2007 or access 2007 but with above problem i can't do it
Attached 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.

I have a question.
Can MS Access table link to Outlook?
Suppose there are Tom and Sue persons:
Sue manage the acc.mdb database file, The database has one table which is called "input", Sue made the form, the form is come from "input" table info. and also Sue made one button to send the specific record to the Tom via outlook, once Sue send out, the mail has created a link, which link can open the document (NOT attached file). Once Tom receive the mail from Sue, Tom will click the link to open the document, and also fill out one signature inside the document, after filled it out, then the signature will automatically populate in the specific field of the "input" table in the acc.mdb database file.
Can MS Access and Outlook do above situation?
Please let me know, thanks a lot.
Ok,
I have a table that has new data added into it through forms, and i want the data to be sorted when a new record is added.
The person that the database is for is new to Access and therefore is not 100% competant at it.
I wanted to add a button onto the forms that would run a macro that would sort the data. Is there a macro in Access that can do this?
Cheers,

Hi all,
I set up three tables (pastoral, referral, confidential) all at the exact same time on our sql server, all have the exact same permissions and i am the owner of all three. Ecah have a primary key in the form of an autonumber.
When i link to these tables in access i can delete from both the pastoral and confidential tables but cant delete from the referral table (the smallest of the three with only 6 fields) and i get this message:
"The Microsoft Jet database engine stopped the process because you and another user are attempting to change the same data at the same time"
Ive tried:
Compacting and repairing
Recreating the table on the sql server
decompiling and recompiling with a compact and repair
redoing the table links
trying the table in a different database
and none of these things have solved my issue.
Its bizarre:
on the sql server i can add, edit, delete
in access i can add but cant edit or delete as i get a write conflict error message:
"This record has been changed by another user since you started editing it. If you save the record, you will overwrite the changes the other user made...."
Yet the overwrite option is greyed out and i only have the choice of copying to clipboard or dropping changes.
HELP!!!
im at a total loss as to what is going on, ive tried all the fixes i know and have come back to trying to fix the problem instead of starting it again due to the fact that recreating the table gives me the same problems.
Any ideas? all service packs are up to date and so is the jet engine...
cheers

Hi!
I was importing the large array of accounting data into Access from Excel through File - Get External Data - Import. Several columns contained tangible accounting data (e.g. registration numbers) that had different formats like "23423 34", "32-3545" and in some cases even contained letter constants. Therefore, I have assigned TEXT type to this column while importing and was sure that all values are going to be stored as text. However, what has happened is: 18307769 turned into 1.83078e+007! this means tangible accounting data that was used as a key field for further linking turned into bull&&$%! :-(
I know this problem is very simple, so please, can you give me a hint as to how do I solve it in the future.
Thank you in advance.

I'm using Access 2013. I have a directory on my hard drive that contains hundreds of image files. The name of the image file matches a field in the Access table, which are unique. I would like to match those files to the unique number in the table and create a link in a field. How would I go about this.

I am fairly new to doing DBA, and I am having trouble adding a new column to a table that is existing. Is there any simple way to do this or does it have to be done throught code? And if so how.
Thanks

It is a simple linking based on one Column in Both the Table.The problem is One Table has "11 Lakh Rows other 2000 Rows"..Actually I am not sure weather the computer is getting hanged or Not as I wait for 10 min still when I am not able to see any update I End the access.
How can I know if it is working or hanged ? (errors like memory overflow will not come after I wait for an hour or so)
Can I use DLOOKUP instead of linking as I want it to be one on One link ?

Hi All,
I have an MS Access table that currently links into word as a mail merge. Great!
Sample data as follows:
Tutor Student
Mr A Donald Duck
Mr A Mickey Mouse
Mr A Minnie Mouse
Mrs B Joe Bloggs
I want to produce a mail document that allows me to address each tutor separately, along with the respective student names in a grid.
Now I've setup the document, but when I view each document it produces the list of all students for each tutor.
e.g.
Dear Mr A
Your students are:
Donald Duck
Mickey Mouse
Minnie Mouse
-------------------
Dear Mrs B
Your Students are:
Joe Bloggs
Is this at all possible?
Thanks:)
I have an Access 2007 application where don't work the link table manager.
I also try to complete reinstall the Office 2007 and also I register the Accwiz.dll in the office folder (regsvr32.exe Accwiz.dll) but the module still does not work.
create a datasheet from 2 odbc linked tables which I will be exporting to Excel. The resulting datasheet will have four columns, 'Purchase Order Number' 'Stock Code' 'Delivery Date' 'Unit Price'. The information I require in the datasheet is a unique stock code (one occurrence of each stock code) with the most recent unit price based on the last delivery date for each product. The linked tables contain many Purchase Orders for the same stock codes over a time period of a number of years where the unit price has varied.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have just had a very frustrating morning. Recently upgraded to MS Access 2003. started having a strange problem, MS Access kept notifying me a another user was using the access database I was in. I switched off and rebooted, still the same..... ?
Read a bit on the Internet, checked my settings, made sure I was exclusive user, made sure user was set to owner, Rebooted, still the same.
I noticed that occasionally the *.ldb file would suddenly appear when I've tried to move or copy a database in explorer from one folder to another? Something was shadowing me, something was recording when I was using an MS Access database.
I checked to see if I had inadvertently added any strange Add-in's, none Listed. I checked visual source safe, I haven't set that up yet it's not doing anything.
Then I remembered! I had installed MS Access crawler which works with Google desktop to record where your MS Access files are. I uninstalled access crawler and I have not had any problems since.
I am new to MS Access, when I am making any calculation using some expression, then I have to save the result to table, it is not saved. Please anyone suggest the solution for my problem..... and mail at rupedhiman@gmail.com.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have one more problem about the version 2000 since it was not happen in version 97. I have changed several report formats margin lots of times (for example .25" for left and right margin to fit on one page) and when I open the reports next time or other users access them from the server (since the application residing on the Novel server) the format keep changing back to the default (1" for all margins: top, bottom, left, right)!!
Please let me know if it is a "bug" in Access 2000 and HOW to fix it!!
Thanks much,
I am having problem to keep the desired format for reports' margin (left, right, top, bottom) and paper size (letter, legal), and orientation (portrait, landscape) stay!!
Currently, I have one MS Access 2000 database application resides on Novel Netware server version 6.0, [B]although I open the Access database exclusively to change all my reports design to the way I like, and SAVED them properly; however, later when I and other users view those reports, the formats change back to default view, which are "letter size, portrait and all margin set to 1")??
It is very STRANGE and FRUSTRATING and incovenient since all users have to manually go to "Page Setup" of the report's design everytime to change margins to make the data display nicely on one page!! It has never happened like this in version '97!
Plllease let me know if ANYBODY has any SOLUTIONS to this bug of version 2000 of Access?? Or any UPDATE file released to help get rid of it??
Thanks so much,
