I'm new here and I have a problem I cannot solve. I tried searching for ideas, but I could not find any help.
Here is my problem.
I have a database form used to scroll through records. I use the same form for searching. The user clicks a search button, I clear the form, they enter their search criteria (perhaps in multiple fields). Since upgrading to 2007, the clearing of the form takes many times longer than it did in 2003. I am using the following code to clear the form.
For Each Ctrl In form.Controls
If TypeOf Ctrl Is TextBox Then
Ctrl.SetFocus
Ctrl.ControlSource = ""
Ctrl.Value = ""
End If
Next
This code executes instantly in 2003 and takes almost 1 minute in 2007. Any thoughts as to why this is so different in 2007?
If there is a different way I should be clearing the form, please let me know.
I've got Access 2000 and was wondering what I needed to upgrade to Access 2007. By this I mean, front page of manual, ID code, etc. And is it something I have to present at purchase or something that Microsoft validates online. Does anyone know?
We just upgraded to Office 2007 and are experiencing very slow access performance. This microsoft article addresses the problem:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/275085
It won't let me change Subdatasheet Name property to [NONE].
Even if I am able to change it, will this affect my table links. I have a lot of them.
I am just the part-time Access "programmer" here and am somewhat lost trying to figure this out. Does anyone have a simple explanation and solution? I would appreciate any help so much!!
I have an access db in a small lan (12 clients) I want to make an upgrade and to go to an more powerfull tool than access It is possible to do that easy with mysql sql server ........... or something else ? Thank you
I recently added a new page to an existing database in 97. All the previous pages run with a case number. I then upgraded to access 2003 and now the case numbers are out of snyc on the new page.
I'm recently starting a new job and one of my tasks is to clean up their Access 2000 database. After looking through it and realizing how much crap there is in it, I was thinking about starting a new one for them from scratch. I was wondering if there are any pros/cons to redeveloping the database in 2003 verses 2000. Its a pretty small company with usually about 6 people concurrently working on it throughout the day.
I upgraded a 2000 db to 2003 recently. When I ran the function below it gave me an error on the line in green. Any thoughts? Thanks. Const FIRSTROW = 13
Dim wsp As Workspace, dbv As DAO.Database, tblResolve As DAO.Recordset Dim tblVchs As DAO.Recordset, tblImpTmp As DAO.Recordset Dim ObjXLApp As New Excel.Application Dim FileToOpen As String, WhereCriteria As String, ImportTemp As String, tmpVch As String Dim TotalDupes As Integer, TotalGood As Integer, TotalRejects As Integer Dim TotalBlank As Integer, R As Integer, C As Integer Dim BadSheet As Boolean, ImpFail As Boolean Dim tmp, tmpType, tmpCtr, tmpRsn

We keep having our backend tables corrupt. We want to upgrade only the backend tables to SQL server. I don't even know where to start. What version of SQL server? I guess I find out if we have an existing licence in the company? Any help on this?
I've been having serious problems with my ASP scripts. Ok, for the last week or so I’ve been working with you people and my ISP to resolve this damn problem. Just last Monday, they told me that it had been fixed. And it was true! I tried it and everything once again worked fine. I made a dozen tests, and everything worked fine. But when I tried it again two days later, it's suddenly back to crashing again, the exact same damn problem I was having before! I’m so frustrated I could kill. I don’t think I did anything. Yes, my ASP code still works. Yes, the HTML code still works. It’s when the code attempts to open a *.mdb database it crashes.
Call up my demo script (then click "Reservation.") : http://christiansencustomsoftware.com/guestbk/dindex.htm which will demonstrate the problem.
A newsgroup I work with writes: “This sometimes happens when you try to use the new MS Jet provider on a Access 97 database, upgrade your Access database to 2000, should work just fine.”
Ok, so how can I upgrade my Access database to 2000?
HI, Im new to this, so I need some help if you can on the subject of upgrading a database created using access 1.0 to the latset version of access, can this be done ? Many Thanks
At work I was just updated to access 2003. I am trying to update a data base that I created in access 2000. Whenever I try to open a data access page I get the following error. "The installer encountered an internal string error. Installation failed." I've updated the Web components and that seems to have gone ok. My IT people are at a loss.
Is there an easy fast way to do this: We are having problems upgrading to SQL server for only our backend tables. The problem is we have SQL reserved words that can only be used by SQL Server. There is a huge list I was given. I assume this applies to all objects, in our ms access database. Any suggestions on how to at least 'find' all of these at once? Or fix this easily? I know which tables would not upload ...but in looking through them I don't even see which reserved word is causing the issue???
Also..our front end application with stay Ms access 2003. Do I still need to update any reserved words in that or just the tables?
I have a date field on one of my forms that gets populated automatically when a new record is created. I also have a subform on the form that lists the tasks that still need to be accomplished this month. Some problems have popped up as people got new computers with new versions of Access:
Access 2002(10.6501.6825) SP3 - No problems. Access 2002(10.6771.6817) SP3 - The Date field isn't recognised on a new record (#Name?), but it's fine on the old records (displays date). Access 2002(10.6771.6825) SP3 - The reminder subform is blank (white), as if it doesn't exist, but the date field works fine.
Any ideas why this might be/how to fix?
Thanks! This is really frustrating. If it didn't work for anyone, I would find a way to fix it, but because it works for some people, I don't know what to fix...
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 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.
My company is about to join the 21st century and they are upgrading from MS Office 97 to XP and Office 2003.
We have lots of Access databases, many designed by me, so if they don't work next Monday people will start comming to me for answers. As I am only familiar with Access 97 (and I am by no means an expert, even though everyone thinks I am!) are there any problems I can expect when we upgrade to the latest version?
I have an old database that is in use based on this one I have created a new one next to it with test data in it. How can I place all data in the new data base there are in some tables new colums added?
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?
Please help?! We just upgraded from 97 to 2003 version. This is a scheduler routine which auto imports an excel spreadsheet into our main db. After I upgraded it stops on with "compile error variable not defined" Also after the conversion ...there was an error that said "May be due to old DAO syntax that is no longer supported" l am pasting the module code below but this line is where I get the error: FileFormat:=xlexcel9795, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", _
I don't have any idea of what to do and this has to run every night.
CODE:
Public Function importisfile(imptype As String) Dim importpath As String 'path for work or home Dim impfile As String 'filename of xl import Dim tempfile As String 'temporary for rewrite Dim tblimptemp As String 'tablename Dim stdocname As String 'conversion string Dim stdocname1 As String 'conversion string Dim recsetname As String Dim XL As Object Dim db As Database 'used in traversal Dim rec As Recordset 'used in traversal Dim tbltempstr As String 'table to traverse Dim x As Integer 'used to count traversal
We have just changed from Access 97 to 2000 (only 6 years behind) and I use a database that has this piece of code running:
Private Sub DateOfAction_AfterUpdate() DoCmd.Requery Forms![CallLogMain]![CallLogDetails]![Child68].Requery Forms![CallLogMain]![CallLogDetails]![Child71].Requery Forms![CallLogMain]![CallLogDetails].SetFocus Forms![CallLogMain]![CallLogDetails]![CallID].SetFocus End Sub
After the record was input 2 subforms would refresh to recalculate a field storing the total time and then it would set focus to the main form to allow you move to the next record. Now the database has changed to 2000, this no longer works which is a pain in the bum.
I have recently upgraded from access 200 to access 2003 and I am having a problem using my reports. I can run the querys just fine but the reports wil not run at all. I can't open them in design view either. Ant thought how to fix this.
