I saved the Nortwinds DB in the .accdb format. I can't understand how the empoyee privileges work. Is each employee on have certain privileges in the database, such as tables, forms etc.?
On trying to import an Excel 2007 file into Access 2007 I get the following:
1) Choose "External Data," Import, Exce 2) Select small file in MS Excel 2007 format. 3) Click on Import the source data into a new table ... 4) Choose OK
Immediately get "Microsoft Office Access has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution to the problem..." This message never resolves, so I have to click 'Cancel'.
Then I get "Microsoft Office Access is trying to recover your information..." I have to click "Cancel" here as well and then kill MS Access in Task Manager.
Event Viewer gives following message, which is of no help: "ID: 2, Application Name: Microsoft Office Access, Application Version: 12.0.6211.1000, Microsoft Office Version: 12.0.6215.1000. This session lasted 710 seconds with 120 seconds of active time. This session ended with a crash."
Trying to import a small Excel 2003 file leads the same result. The same happens with a CSV file.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Office 2007 as well. I am using Vista Ultimate.
I installed Office Enterprise 2007. Then I installed DEveloper Exrtensions, then Access Runtime 2007. All appear to have installed OK - they appear in Program and Features. Instructions on runtime packaging tell me that a Developer option should appear in the resulting drop-down when I click the Office button (top-left round thing) when I have a d/b open in Access. It's not there! I have un-installed and re-installed the extensions and the runtime - still nothing! Help! I do have Runtime 2002 (XP) on the same PC, is that relevant?
I have an Access 2010 application running on Win 7 Pro which connects to a Back End SQL Server database. I am trying to get Access to synchronise the client pc system date & time with the Sql server date and time. Please note, the date/time does not necessarily have to be correct, it just has to be consistent between the server and all the pcs running the Access application.
I have tried two methods as follows. But both only work if Access with Administrator privileges, which isn't really practical.
Method 1:
Code: Dim MyDateTime As Date 'Some Code here to get MyDateTime If MsgBox("Change date & time to:" & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & MyDateTime & "?", vbYesNo, "Change") = vbYes Then Date = DateValue(MyDateTime) Time = TimeValue(MyDateTime) End If
Method 2:
Code: Private Type SYSTEMTIME wYear As Integer wMonth As Integer wDayOfWeek As Integer wDay As Integer
I am in the process of creating a database with multiple tables. Multiple users access through network with access data back end on server and Different Forms with user and group access of MS Access. The file is in mdb format and current version of MS Access used by all my users is Access 2007.
Requirements :
1. User Login (Access user login preferred as, one can set permission for read only, write permission for specific field etc.) But whether if any user who has readonly rights create his own db, wont be able to edit their own because of the rights that i have set rights in their pc??
2. need to fetch this user id with time stamp in each table to find who has altered the data, though audit trail table with ip address will be ideal.
3. Hide the navigation pane and ribbon for anyone other than administrator, including office button.
4. User level security is it required to set in every pc where the front end sits or one pc where the data is located.
I have installed Microsoft Access 2003 and Microsoft Access 2003 Developer Extensions. I can create Access application by using the Package Wizard. But after I upgrade from Microsoft Access 2003 to Microsoft Access 2007. I can't use the Package Wizard.
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.
Background Info: I developed our main department's Access 2003 split database which is on a server for 15+ Users. I've now been given Access 2007 for development -- Users still have 2003. There are also 2 other smaller databases that are not split (.mdb).
Problem: In the split database, I've saved the Application .mdb as 2003, relinked and made a new .mde. But the Users still cannot open the database. (I did this in a copy until I figure out the nuances with 2007.) The 2 other unsplit databases can be saved as 2003 version and Users can open OK.
I'm grateful for any suggestions on working with Access 2007. I've been trying to tackle the ribbon which is a whole other question.
Having a problem here after installing 2007. All my previously created databases work fine in 2007 (after clicking the enable, which is a pain,but don't know any other way) When I return to 2002 and try to open the databases I get different errors all something like this on....... "The expression On Open you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Object or class does not support the set of events. Whats up here?????I have found a site here...http://allenbrowne.com/bug-17.htmlMentions this problem,but refers to Vista..... Does the same apply to XP? And which is the best fix?
I have an Access 2000/2003 database which opens up and displays correctly in Access 2007, but when I go to use the File>Print command, or for that matter any of the other pull down menu's nothing happens?
Has anyone else experienced thisproblem, or does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
I have created a database in Access 2007 that now works well, and one that I'm quite proud off. However, I can easily convert it to an Access 2000 format as can anyone else here, but when I load it up there is a major problem.
I have used the tab control in my main form and that has three tabs on it. However, it's positioned correctly in Access 2007 it's not positioned correctly in Access 2000 as I have to move the tab control down a bit, but that would seem fine. So I lowered the tab control form and changed my form layout slightly, but even then the tab control over all over the Access 2000 form whenever I interact with the tabs - most bizzare.
I recently heard that Access 2007 ( part of MS Office 2007) can be purchased as a stand alone program. This sort of confirms that : look at pricing breakdown on : http://techrepublic.com.com/5254-6257-0.html?forumID=99&threadID=174062&messageID=1961442&id=3053951
I have downloaded Access 2007 trial, but I don't know how to use some of its features. When I try to open any of my databases saved as A2000, it displays a security message. "Security Warning: Certain content in the database has been disabled"
Hi, I have downloaded the access 2007 trial. Installed and registered it with the trial code. However when I try to install any of the free sample dbs from MS including the northwind db, Access crashes!! I was going to purchase the full version of office, but wanted to test access first. If anyone knows a solution, or can email the northwind 2007 db it would be appreciated.Many ThanksP.S. Screen dump of error is included.
I read this article from Allen Browne http://allenbrowne.com/Access2007.html#Bugs Has anyone had any problems with 2007, data, tables, etc. Our company would like to install, but after reading this, just second guessing myself. We have not yet installed the SP1. The company is gang ho about running with 2007.
I would like to hear your oppinion about new MS Access Jet db engine
I've been working with MS Access still 10 years, since version 2.0. I used to use MS Accesss for companies size of 10 pc users, and for any bigger company, I used MS Access as front end and MS SQL Server as back-end.
I bought recently MS Office 2007, with MS Access 2007. Before that, I read in one computer journal, that new, Access db Engine is completely made from scratch. And that this new engine is so good, that there are no needs to work with , for example MS SQL 2005 express. Also, I read, that during development phase of MS OFfice 2007, Microsoft development teams SQL Server and MS Access in Redmond, USA, fought among themselves, about is there need for Jet db engine, or not.
Engineers working in MS SQL development team, made a pressure on Microsoft board, to remove Jet engine from Access, as you can take MS SQL express for free, but on the other hand, MS Access dev. team, replied that new Jet is robust at least as MS SQL express 2005.
So, my question is: what do you think about it, is new Jet db engine, really so good and robust in MS ACcess 2007 ?
I've been using Access from the beginning, (well v2.0 actually) and felt quite competent. Lots of clients using various versions, still as far back as 97 - but keeping them maintained.
I just got 2007 - and the UI is leaving me totally cold !!
Is there any way that we can have a 'classical view' of menu options etc in 2007 ? It is taking me ages just to do simple things - as I'm trawling around looking for the options or commands - is there a simple guide to this ?
Also finding a no of things that won't work - again - is there a summary of differences anywhere ?
