Common Access Errors
Sep 27, 2006Hi,
I did a search on common access errors and other errors that you would want to trap and got the following results:
Cannot update. Database or object is read-only
Operation must use an updateable query
General error Unable to open registry key
Could not find file
Could not use '(unknown)'; file already in use
Table 'tblTable' is exclusively locked by user 'Admin' on machine 'MyMachine'
Too few parameters. Expected 1
Either BOF or EOF is True, or the current record has been deleted
Item cannot be found in the collection corresponding to the requested name or ordinal
The search key was not found in any record
If you know any extra errors, can you please add them to this list?
Regards,

Access 97 Closing With No Errors
Sep 27, 2007I have recently done a fresh install of access 97 to our 2003 server. I load up an access app, it brings up a form with a button...I clidk the button, and it closes the app with no errors, and leaves the ldb file in tact. Checking the event viewer, I get this message:
Faulting application msaccess.exe, version 8.0.0.5903, faulting module unknown, version 0.0.0.0, fault address 0x00202878.
It appears to be on the buttons that open forms / reports, but not those that run queries. Any ideas?
Help With Access Errors And Corrupt Files
Apr 2, 2008Hello everyone. I will admit I am a novice when it comes to access. But I do have some programming background in Lotus Notes. Now maybe its just me but Access seems to error out ALOT and I keep getting messages like:
-File is not a databse
-A user unexpectedly shut down access
-Some c++ runtime errors
I just dont understand what I am doing wrong. I am saving my work like I would do in anyother program. But at least once a day I have to resort to a backup copy because I keep getting errors like the ones above.
I have created an access 2000 DB and it did the same thing about 2 weeks ago...been doing it at least once a day if not more. I have created new db's and still the same thing. I have even converted it to 2003 and still problems.
For example I created a report and was told I didnt have permission to access the report??....WTF..I am the only user in the db as its in development...I created the db..if I dont have permission WHO does. So I tried to add myself in permissions.....then that when I got the c++ error.
I have been working in Notes DBs for the past 6 years and I have to tell you access doesnt have ANYTHING on notes. I have never had such stupid error out of the blue in any program I have used...I mean just closing the DB is causing an error on some days...
I am so frustrated with this its beyond belief..I have a real hard time turning this crap over to my users when I DONT trust it will be running next week...UGH
Some guidance will be most appreciated as I am about to just drop the project and start from scratch in something else.
Access Errors And Crashes On New System
Jul 24, 2012My office computer, along with the phone system, printers etc took a lightening strike last week. The hard drive survived but not the computer. I was able to get the office access db onto a new system but now I get errors when running it. When opened, the main menu appears. Whoopee!Not so fast. When I select an item, I get "the expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following Automation error. The expression may not result in the name of a macro, the name of a user-defined function, or [Event Procedure]There may have been an error evaluating the function, event, or macro"
Pressing the button a second time does not produce the error and opens the correct form.This form works properly. The second problem is with a second report form that opens properly.This form expects dates and accepts them but when I try to print the report, access closes with no error message.
Access Is Fun Errors Arent. SEARCH Probs.
Jun 23, 2005Private Sub quicksearch_AfterUpdate()
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Set rs = Me.Recordset.Clone
rs.FindFirst "[ID number] = " & Str(Me![quicksearch])
Me.Bookmark = rs.Bookmark
End Sub
this is the code that im using to help me with a listbox and a search text box that is embedded on my main form. it works ok. The problem is, i was trying to link an already filled out Table with data to this interface.
When i key in information from the form it works, but when i just enter stuff through the table (which was already completed and handed to me) When I click in the listbox on the main form the code window just pops up showing this section of my code. Help./
Help.
Unspecified Errors Galore With Access Database
Feb 28, 2005I'm not sure if this is an Access problem or an ASP problem or even an IIS problem, but I have to start somewhere, so here I am. Ok, this is the deal. I've got an Access database that I'm using to store login/password info (just a training thing, I'm new to ASP) and I've successfully created a login form and an ASP page that determines if the username/password combo is correct. If the info is legit, it forwards the user to a success page. If the name is good, but the password is bad it tells them so and makes them try to log in again. If the user name doesn't show up in the database it says they must register and forwards them to a registration page. All is fine and dandy in my li'l ASP world. Except for one small problem... When testing my few pages I keep getting an "Unspecified Error" that always points to this line of code:
adoCon.Open "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("login.mdb")
Far as I can tell, what's happening is that every time I access the database, I must wait a small amount of time (seems to be about 30 seconds) before I can do anything with it again, or I get this error.
Let me clarify,
When testing, I would go to the login page, type a correct user/pass combination and then I get forwarded to the success page. Cool. I go back to the login page and try it with a correct username, but an invalid password.... oops, I get this error. If I wait about 30 seconds, I can go back to the login page and try again and everything is fine. The order I test in doesn't matter...
Correct Combo -> invalid password
invalid pass -> non existant user
correct combo -> correct combo
etc...
Doesn't matter. Once I access the database via .Open it seems that I can't do it again for a while. Why is this? I use a .Close on my record set and then I set the recordset and connection objects to Nothing *BEFORE* each and every page redirect.
What gives?
Thanks,
~Darxide

Errors With Access File For Multiple Users?
Jun 20, 2012I'm having trouble opening up the tools I am developing in Access for multiple users. I split all my databases so the users will only interface with the "Front End" and I just tried saving one as an ACCDE file. I had the ACCDE file open on my machine and asked another person in the office to try opening it (all our files are stored on a network drive, which is already identified as a trusted source).
She got the following error message:
"The database cannot be opened because the VBA project contained in it cannot be read. The database can be opened only if the VBA project is first deleted. Deleting the VBA project removes all code from modules, forms, and reports. You should back up your database before attempting to open the database and delete the VBA project"
How do I fix this? I don't want to publish several Front End Access files since each person in my office will ask me to customize their file and my supervisor wants everyone working off the same file. I thought the point of Access was that multiple users could open the same file and make data modifications. How do I achieve this while retaining all the fun, creative VBA solutions I have developed?
Join Syntax Errors Translating Oracle SQL To Access SQL
Mar 21, 2008I've developed a working query to grab some information from my Oracle 9i database using SQL Developer. I have a tool in MS Access 2003 that I'm developing for other users so they can input some options through the GUI and query the same data that I do.
I'm trying to translate the query I developed in Oracle and have it work in Access. I have my ODBC connection set up so that Access can get to the same tables.
Here is my Oracle Query:
[QUERY]...
The error I'm receiving is: Run-time error '3296'
Join expression not support.
I believe the error has something to do with the "LEFT JOIN CPCF ... " but I can't seem to figure out how to fix it. The query will run in Access if I change that to an "INNER JOIN CPCF ...." but the result set is not what I need it to be. Any thoughts on how to fix this?
General :: Trapping Errors When No Query Criteria Is Given In MS Access 2007?
Apr 7, 2015I am writing a small database using MS Access 2007. I have in it a function for running queries and printing reports. Printing works just fine if any one of the multiple query criteria is give.
I also want to trap errors and present a message if the user clicks the "Print" button without a query criteria. At the moment I only get a run-time syntax error message which has a "debug" button for accessing the entire code. I want a message that will say "There was no search criteria".
This is the code for printing:
Code:
Private Sub cmdPrint_Click()
Dim varWhere As Variant
varWhere = BuildFilter
' Update the record source
Me.RecordSource = "SELECT * FROM q_Vehicles " & varWhere
[code]....
Identify Errors Preventing Data From Importing From Access To Excel
May 1, 2014I have been consistently getting an error almost every month when I try to load some data that has been input into access, then I have it linked to an excel sheet so that whenever I refresh, the access data imports into excel and updates my pivots, charts, etc.
When my data entry ppl enter data, sometime they forget to enter a code, or something, and when they forget to enter that, it creates some kind of error in the query. The query still runs in access, but shows something similar to " #ERROR#" in the field IF I ever do find it in the access query. The issue is that I cant filter to find that error. I literally have to scan and scroll through thousands of lines of data to try and find this error. When I try to refresh the data in excel, the following error message pops up;
"Data could not be retrieved from the database. Check the database server or contact your database administrator. Make Sure the external database is available, and then try the operation again."
In past months I can usually find the #ERROR# by scrolling through access and finding it. Some months I have EXTREME trouble finding the error. It can take hours out of my work day. Is there any way to more easily identify which line these errors are in rather than scrolling through thousands of lines of data? Is there a way to still export the data to excel with the errors still in them?

Compacting
Apr 4, 2007I'm just about done with my database and will be putting it on the user's computer shortly. How often, generally, should we compact and repair the DB? Is this something I should set as an event everytime the file is closed? Is there any disadvantage to doing it too often?

Nov 8, 2005I have a database that will not compact (using 97) the error message I get is the microsoft jet engine stopped the process because you and another user are attempting to change the data at the same time.
I copied this database on my desk top, and absolutely no one is using it.
I can 'repair" it, but not compact it.

Problems Compacting
May 9, 2007Hi, I have a problem compacting a database. i used to do this all the time at my old job, yet here at my new company, all I get is the usual blank Access screen, the sandtimer mouse icon, and if I select any other program in Windows and the switch back to Access, it crashes "MS Access (not responding)
Any ideas what might be happening here.
Compacting Problem
Oct 1, 2007I appear to be having problems with the Compact/Repair feature of MS Access. When I compact/repair an .mdb file, even if it is empty (no tables, no queries, no forms, etc) access will make a db1.mdb file, but not follow up with the rename. I have had no troubles with a large multiuser database for the last 5 years and just recently noticed the db1.mdb, db2.mdb, etc appearing.
Any idea on what is causing the rename to fail?
Thanks

Problem While Compacting Database
Feb 27, 2006Dear Friends
I have a .mdb password protected with all types of objects (tables, queries, forms, reports, codes, functions, modules, etc) they too are password protected in VB, the .mdb works fine but when I tried to repair and compact the database from the menu tools option, very recently it started giving me the message of database has been corrupted and requires tobe backedup before proceeding with the repair options and the log report of this corrupted .mdb file is to be sent to microsoft for the review.
In short i am not able to compact the Database though it works fine - but the moment I try to compact it gives me this problem - I am worried and concerned as its looks good but what happening in the background can anyone in here sugguest the remedy or the precautionary measures.
This file is on the network shared by min 2 person at the same time.
Please advice - thanks
Close Button Without Compacting
Nov 10, 2006The database that I currently work with has the option chosen to compact and repair on close so that if I am not present when there is trouble the users can close the db and the problem is usually corrected. I currently have a close button on the Main switchboard that closes the db. Is there a way to make a button or another way that will close the db that will by pass the compact and repair choice? I know that I can use task manager, but that usually creates db1, db2 and so on.
Thanks,

Error In Automatic Counter After Compacting
Jan 9, 2006After compacting my Access2000 database it usually is impossible to add new records. The automatic counter does not continue with a new value but seems to have "forgotten" some of the recently added records and tries to use a value that is already allocated. After pressing <ESC> the next value is applied and so - after adding and escaping the appropriate times - it finally reaches a valid new value and the record is accepted. Ugly workaround. Any known solution?
View 2 Replies View RelatedCompacting And Repairing A Different Database Using Code
Dec 6, 2007Hello
I am aware that there are a lot of existing threads relating to compacting and repairing but I cant seem to find what I am looking for.
Basically, I developed a complaints database for my employers and it is used by around 45 people at any one time. The database was one of firt I built so it is not the best and is serious bloatware. Our server management team gave me an ear bashing the other day because the BE was 145MB. I did a compact and repair which took it to 45MB. The problem is that I need to do this daily but it involves kicking everyone out of their linked FE so the BE can be compacted/repaired. As an interim measure before I rebuild the whole thing I am going to schedule a database to open that will compact and repair the Complaints Database BE. Can anyone tell me the code to use to compact another database other than the one I am using. I have been looking at the code in other posts but I cant get it to work. The code I was looking at is the DBEngine.CompactDatabase... but I dont understand what comes after this and why??
Thanks people. :-)
Compacting Database 'breaks' SQL Code
Sep 22, 2005I had someone write some code to access an Access database. The code works with the database as is, however if I choose to compact & repair the database to minimize its size, the code no longer works. What could be different about the database once it's been minimized using the database utilities?
Thanks,
Rick
P.S. Does compacting the database make it more responsive to users on the web that query the database, or doesn't it much matter?
