Apr 29, 2005I know the is probably wishful thinking, but is it possible, and if so how, to link or create groups from Active Directory for use in Access.

Apr 26, 2005Hi All
I have a small Help Desk db with tables that contain computer spec and user information. But I already have all this information in Active Directory and it seems pointless entering the information twice.
Is there any way i can get the database to lookup the information from Active directory i have no idea where to start.
Thanks

Jul 31, 2013I'm trying to tie a from into the results from and AD Query. I'm not that experienced with doing this kind of thing so I may be going about this the wrong way. Anyway here's what I've got so far:
Code:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Dim cn As ADODB.Connection
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
With cn
.ConnectionString = "Provider=ADSDSOObject;Trusted_Connection=yes;"
[Code] .....
When stepping through the code, it all goes well until it hits the line that actually connects it to the form "Set Me.Recordset = rs".
When this line is executed, Access crashes and attempts to restart.

Check A Directory From Access
Aug 20, 2004Hello creators,
I have a little problem and it is creating and checking directories.
In my database I have a form, on it you can see a record of a project. This project has a keyfield called projectno.
On this form there is a button to create a directory with the projectnumber. So far so good. (code example: MkDir ("C:projects444323")
My problem:
If the directory for some reason already exist the code stops and gives an error.
Now I want to create some code that checks if the directory already excist so than I can skip making the directory.
Thanks for the help!!!!!
Modules & VBA :: Saving Excel Files Through Access In Particular Directory
May 4, 2014I am using Access to save an Excel file in a particular directory. The code was created about 10 years ago and hence saves the file with .xls extension and I would like to save with a .xlsm extension. If I just change the .xls to .xlsm, in the code below, the file is saved but the Compatibility Checker comes up (I would like to stop this) and when the file is reopened I get an error message stating there is a file extension problem and the file won't open.
Code:
strExt = ".xls"
'If .txtFriendlyName <> "" Then
' strDestFileName = .txtFriendlyName
'Else
' strDestFileName = Left(objFile.Name, Len(objFile.Name) - 4) & MakeFilePosfix(Now())
[Code] ....
DoCmd.OpenForm Fails If Access Is Not The Active Window
Jun 13, 2006I have an Access 2000 application which, on startup, always launches a 'switchboard' form and sometimes gets information from the user during the startup. Both forms are opened with VBA using DoCmd.OpenForm; the switchboard opens as acNormal and the input form (when used) as acDialog.
Under normal circumstances this works fine.
If, however, the Access window ceases to be the active window in Windows (e.g. the user selects another application's window in the taskbar) the forms do not open (all other VBA code runs correctly).
Any ideas?

Importing Excel To Access Keeping Relationships In Access Tables
Sep 13, 2007I have a stock control database which i have nearly completed. This has Manufacturer, which is linked to products, which is linked to Sub Product(which also has field partCode). i.e. Manufacturer1 can have 3 products, and each of these products could have 5 subsystems and partcodes. Each partcode is unique to that subsystem/product/manufacturer.
I then have a pricing spreadsheet in excel, which has many tabs. A new column has been added for each item for Manufacturer,Product,Subsystem and Partcode.
I need to import these manufacturers,products,subsystems and partcodes, but into the tables with the correct relationships, i.e. product1 and product2 are products of manufacturer1 and so cannot come under manufacturer2, and so on.
I hope this makes sense, Thanks in advance for any help you can give!

Access DB And Relationships
May 16, 2005I'm creating a Members Area on a Trade Organisation website; I have an Access Database with all the members’ details including the name of the nominated representative for that member company. I am able to create a login for the nominated representative together with his/her chosen password but some of these member companies employ over 100 staff and what I would like to do is create a separate login for each member of staff, which is where I think that I need a table related to the Main table.
Just supposing one member has 100 staff and the member decides not to renew his membership, by deleting his entry in the Main Table all members of his staff would automatically have their access to the member’s area denied.
I just can't get my head around this relationship bit; I do have a cut down version (336kb) of the database if somebody would like to give it a go.
Access Table Relationships
Jul 12, 2005I'm using Access 2003. When I open the relationship window, one table linked to my main data table appears six times - the name is the same but with the addition of a number 1 -5. I can delete the five spare ones and drag a relationship to the main table but it keeps dissapearing.When I try to change the primary key in this table, it tells me that there is a relationship established which I must break - unfortunately, I can't see any relationship between the two tables in the relationship window. Any ideas?

Defining Relationships In Access
Apr 25, 2006Hi,
I seem to be stuck on the simplest of tasks with both google and forum searches coming up with information that’s either too simple or too complex for my needs (not time wasted though because I’m learning all kinds of related stuff).
How do I join my tables with one-to-one relationships?
[edit] Doh, got this one now - by indexing without duplicates then saying all in one have to link to one in another:D
How do I define both fields in a linking table as composite or two field primary key?
VB Frontend, Access Backend, No Relationships?
Apr 2, 2007I am evaluating a program for the use of a customer. It's a VB frontend attached to an Access database.
The backend has no relationships. No table in the backend even has a primary key.
My question: Is this scenario acceptable in any way?
I tend to think not, but am unsure whether the design of the frontend application establishes relationships "on the fly". Even if so, the fact that there are no primary keys makes me think I should dismiss this application out of hand.
Thanks
Access Novice - Table Relationships Help
Apr 26, 2005Hi, I am currently stuck on making a working one to many table relationship, I will post what I have so far, what I am stuck on is forming a proper working relationship.
tblCustomers
CustomerID
Name
Address(street)
City
Region
PostCode
Telephone
Discount %
tblOrders
OrderID
ProductID
Description
Qty
UnitPrice
tblProduct
ProductID
Description
Room
Finish
UnitPrice
Stock Qty
The desired output is a working order form, that when, for example you enter the product ID into the appropriate field automatically brings the rest of the product fileds such as description and unit price. And when the customer ID is put into the appropriate field all of the relative customer info is shown.
I am new to access and I apologise if my post is unclear or incomplete, any input is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
General :: Access 2007 Many-to-many Relationships Export To Excel?
Jul 18, 2014how to export Access' many-to-many relationships in excel.
My database is a Project portfolio management tool. One project has many different fields, some of which can only be single values (one-to-one, easy to export to excel) and many others are multiple values fields, built as many-to-many relations (through junction tables).
One usage that was not specified at database creation time was the ability to export the portfolio to excel, so non-access-savvy users can browse, filter, sort and play with the portfolio however they want.
If I build a report, it will contain as many sub-reports as there are junction tables, rendering it un-exportable to excel. A Form would have to be continuous, barring the use of sub-forms for the m2m relations.
Building a query will generate many lines per project (as many as the most populous multiple field), making the excel sheet nearly unusable (in my users opinion, and here, the client's the king).
The best route I have been exploring so far involves "transforming" the multiple fields, so a the different "rows" become additional "columns".

TreeView Of Directory
Feb 22, 2006Hi All,
I've been trying to use TreeView control to display my computer's directories and folders just like Windows Explorer does.
Thanks to Popeye for reposting all the Treeview samples (samples posted before the site was hacked). Most or all of these samples, TreeView is used to display data out of tables. Mr. Ghuson posted a great example for browsing directory but it pops up a separate windows for browsing.
Now I'd like to somehow combine the two into one; browsing thru directories and folders using TreeView Control. Yes that I can browse and save all paths and directories to different tables and add them to the TreeView control but I'm trying to stay away from saving data to tables first.
Can this be accomplished? Can Windows Explorer be somehow embeded on an Access form or called? Any ideas, experts out there?
Thanks all in advance.

Need Help Building A Directory.
May 8, 2006I have made an Access database containing contract names and addresses. I need to have each of these contracts linked to another table which shows the allocated engineer for the particular contract. I used a "one 2 many" relationship using a field "LinkID" to do this. Each engineer has a unique "LinkID" in the engineer table but the engineer changes each day. The engineer for each particular day comes via an excel spreadsheet. The way it works at the moment is that the engineer name has to be manually changed each day, and this takes time. I have tried importing a linked excel table which looked like it would work, but was not able to use the linked table in the same "one 2 many" related table format as above.
What i need to do, is find a way for the fields containing the engineer name to be automatically updated somehow, possible by reading the values from the excel sheet.
Anybody know of any way for this to be done?
Thanks, and hope this makes sense got its got me baffled.
*** Edit **** Thinking about it, i could have an imported execl sheet which contains all of the engineers for each day. Would there be a way using a macro, to update the data in the engineers table that is related to the contracts, by overwriting it with the data from the linked spreadsheet?
