View 4 Replies View RelatedWe have an extensive reporting application in Access and would like it to be available through a web application. I've went down the road of migrating this application to SQL to use SQL Reporting Services; this is a good tool but I am wondering if MS Access has an easier solution for me other than migration to SQL.
I'm looking for a solution that will make these reports available over the web for many users. Price tag is a consideration...need to know if there is any.
Please help...thanks in advance for any thoughts!!!!

View 2 Replies View RelatedI copied Odun's post below to describe my problem. I'm having the same problem. I can't even creat a new blank database without being prompted for my user name and password, which aren't working.
Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,

can't log on to database
Hi all,
I was playing with passwords for one of my access db.
I tried opening the db with the password, but it won't work. So, I thought I forgot the password. I checked some posts on this forum that helped in retrieving the password and it's the same that I have been trying. I am not sure if the Name is correct, is there a way to retrieve the log on name?
I also noticed that when I try opening any other db on my system, it asks me to log on, I though I was only applying a password to one file.
Please help
Thanks!

I have a MS Access 97 database that seems to be locked. I wish to update it but I cannot open it as a regular file. When it is opened, there is no way to edit the database or access any of the controls that are usually present. The tool bars are even different.
Any idea?
Thanks,

Hi All
I am using OLEDB to connect to an Access DB and it does use the "admin" account as the default user to connect from within Access i.e. this is not a Windows account.
I have an ASP.NET web page that is trying to do a compact and repair using a jet/MDAC object called JRO (Jet Replication Object).
The problem is whenever I call the JRO object I get this error:
"You attempted to open a database that is already opened exclusively by user 'admin' on machine..."
If I try and delete the .ldb file it is ofcourse locked. I found that if I do a CTRL-ALT-DEL and end the aspnet_wp process I am then able to delete the .ldb file and then successfully execute the compact and repair from the ASP.NET web page.
The aspnet_wp process when ended simply restarts itself (a new instance no doubt) and in doing so cannot remember it had a lock on the access db.
My conclusion is that the aspnet_wp process locks the access db file for or on behalf of the "admin" user in the access db.
Even if all connections have been closed the aspnet_wp process has a lock on the database file!
I am still searching for a way to tell the aspnet_wp to let go of the access db file!
I did use getprocessbyname() from the ASP.NET page to try and kill the instance of aspnet_wp programmatically and try and force it to forget by starting a new instance of itself, but ofcourse IIS gets really upset and won't let me kill this process from an ASP.NET page because I figure that in this case its suicide and aspnet/IIS won't "kill" itself but would be happy to "kill" other processes.
Anyway, I would have been content with the "kill the aspnet_wp process instance" approach except it won't suicide.
Does anyone have any idea how I might tell the aspnet_wp process to let go of the acccess db file?
By the way, I found the only account you need in a dev environment is the ASPNET account with read/write access and also your own account if you want to browse the folder yourself. No other accounts needed.
Any ideas appreciated.

I am completely locked out of my Access Database!
Basically, I have 3 forms which have all got the properties set to DISALLOW right clicking on them to prevent users accessing the design of the form, they all have code behind them so that they cover the entire screen and block ALL menus/shortcuts apart from those available on the form and I have set up a command button on each form which is password protected to ONLY allow Admins to access the design/backend of the form/database when they enter a valid password.
However, I was playing around with the settings of all these forms and have inadvertantly locked myself out, the last thing I remember doing was setting up a "Password" form to collect the Administrator password which had code attached to allow access to the database design. This was working fine until I tried "tweaking" it and now whenever I input the CORRECT password, I get the error message;-
"Error 2585: This action can't be carried out while processing a Form or Report event"
If I enter an INCORRECT password, I get the standard "Login Failed-Please try again" form that I have set up.
The "Password" form doesn't have an override/Cancel (I wanted to make it REALLY secure) it means that although I can use the database fine for entering/editing information/data within the database when it first opens, as soon as I want to make changes to the design and try to log in with "Admin" privellages using my custom made "Password" form, it then pops up with the password screen and goes no further.
I do have a backup of this database BEFORE I set up the "Password" security to collect the "Admin" Password but I can't remember the code I used and although I can work it out again, it will take me a LONG time to work it out again. So I was wondering if any of you might have some ides or a workaround I could try to gain back "Admin" rights to my database.
Does this makes sense? As stated I do have a backup so if all else fails I'm going to have to try to remember how I got it working in the first place BEFORE I cocked it up but if any of you could save me the trouble that would be very much appreciated!
Thank you very much

Hi
I've just tried adding the Administrator to a workgroup as described in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918583
and now I can't open any access databases at all!
It's asking me for Login Details even on a blank database.
Anyone got any ideas?

I have a table which is linked to a form which has been working fine for over a year now but yesterday the table "locked" for editing. I can now only copy data from the table. The editing functions delete, cut, new etc are not working, we can still filter the data.If we enter data on the form it creates a new line on the table but we cannot edit directly from the table.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI greatly appreciate your help on 2 issues:
1/ At work, I have Access 2000 application residing on a Novel server for multiusers purpose. Everyday, occasionally, the application is locked out by whoever opens first (I think?). Some of other users could not open it since it has the message like "locked out by a particular (computer name)...". Therefore the user of that computer name needs to close the application so others can open it. This issue is not happen in Access 97 as we used that version before and it is not consistent happening, so I could not find the pattern or know why?? Please let me know if you have seen this problem and how to prevent it...
2/ Do we have a way to trigger or initiate GroupWise email inside an Access 2000 application. For example, if a purchase order is created in Access 2000 application, I want to email a co-worker...OR it can be automatically sent an email to my supervisor for notifying the purchase order so he can approve it?
Thanks so much in advance for all the helps...

I have this Access application. Now I want to see the databases and fields defined.but when I open the access file, it straight opens the access application.
Then when i press Alt+F11, it opens VB Editor. Then when I click on Design mode it comes back to access in the design mode, but still does not shows the design mode for databases and reports and all.
I can remember there is one more step I need to do after getting into the design of the form.But I cannot remember that
Could anyone please help me out

I am developing an application in access xp (2002) and want to distribute it as a runtime application. I do not have the Office xp Developer version and thus need to buy the MS Office Developer. It is still available and if so, where can I buy it? Or can the Visual Studio Tools for the MS Office System make a runtime version from access 2002?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi
I have created a website that includes an Access database providing a directory of manufacturers and suppliers to complement a magazine version.
The requirement now is to distribute the catalog on CD as well and the challenge is how to supply a query function?
I created a cd version of the website and it works fine - except if the user does not have Access installed the queries dont work.
I know the MS Developer Edition is the preferred route but it is very expensive for a simple application like this - does anyone know of an alternative approach?

Hi all..
I need to open an application when user clicks a command button...From this forum I have learnt that I can use SHELL command..but when I use this command to open an application, it opens a new instance of the application everytime...Can I bring the application to the foreground if it was already open?
Thanks in advance.
Hello,
I have an Access application which was written on Access 2.0. I need to run it (as is). I saw that it was possible to run it using some kind of Access 2.0 runtime environment - my client uses the following command to run the application:
Msarn200.exe application.mdb /ini application.ini
Where can I get this MSARN200? Do I have to find the Access 2.0 installation itself?
Hello everyone. This is my first post (for not asking help :) )
I look at topics for start up options etc and I think all of this it’s ok but there is a smarmiest way to start your application. So here we go..
We make a vbs Script
Set WSHShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WSHShell.Run """C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE11MSACCESS.EXE""/RUNTIME ""C:Documents and SettingsEvalDesktopDataBaseUI.mdb"""
And we start The Access In runtime and open your Db
Note this working with Access 2003 .If you have an other version just change the access directory “C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE11MSACCESS.EXE”
Where is your Office Access
Then you can make a shortcut of your .vbs script and rename it ass you like
You’re Application Name. You can change the Icon (If you have a Program File’s Folder Place your icon) Right Click Properties/Change Icon
Then your app is starting in Access /Runtime and everything is fine :)

Using the MDE-menu function in MS Access it returns an error. MS Access is not able to make a MDE-file of my database. I prefer to make a runtime of my database, but surfing the internet I can not find a way to do this. Can you give me directions for this?
