Access Version Upgrade
Mar 26, 2006
Hey,
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.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!!

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...

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
If Forms![Import Block Vouchers]![Import Program] = "0" Then
MsgBox ("You must select a Program to load.")
ObjXLApp.Quit 'Exit from MS Excel
Exit Function
End If

Hi everyone,
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.
Thanks for your help.

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 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
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.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
John

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?

Very General Question
What version of Access do you use?
And if you use Access 97, why do you choose to use that over that of Access 2000 or higher?
I am curious to find out the reasons.
As for me, I use Access 2003 all around.

Hello All
I have a database which is use at busy times to run the delivery side of our Floristry business. The orders are entered,assigned to a delivery area, address labels printed. When it comes to delivery day orders are selected from the list ticked off then printed a make a list for the driver.
It was built using Access 97 when it first came out. Since then the software was upgraded to Access 2000 many mods have been made each year to improve the performance and the number of things it can do. It now has about 15 tables and a lot of queries.
Not being an expert with Access a lot of the design has been on a trial and error basis. Put it another way the main form has many hidden fields to make things work behind the scenes. But it does most of what I want it to.
I have now go to the point where the main query is saying that I can't add any more features because I have to many fields in it.
So the time has come to look at re building it for a number of reasons.
1. It is a stand alone database on one Pc.......... I would like to have it on a network to 3 or 4 Pc's around the shop.
2. Some of it needs to be redesigned to take out my ( it might not be the way a designer would it but it does work) type bits.
3 I would like to be able to use the system for all orders received on a day to day basis. So it will need to be used by other people.
My question today is
Should I be looking to rebuilt it using Access 2003 + the extra software so that i can run it on more than one PC.
Or would it be better to wait few months till Acess 2007 comes out and start from scratch.
thanks
Kevin.

Here is a question.
I go to the menu bar, Help->About MS Access
It's shown Microsoft Access 2002 SP3
This is MS Access 2002 Version, right.
But, at the top it is shown (Access 2000 file format)
Why do I use 2000 file format in Access 2002 version?

I am trying to determine what version of Access is being used from a file that I obtained from a user. Everything I clicked on does not say what version of Access is being used. The extension name of the file is .MDB. The original version of the file I am accessing was created in 2001. Thus would you tell me how to verify what version of Access I am working with?

When will Access support the .Net framework?
Will Microsoft ever consider making another RAD program similar to Access that supports the .Net framework?
Just think of an IDE of a RAD program similar to Access that has a full set of toolbox items already built in .Net that supports all of the functions / options that Access currently supports in its forms, reporting etc. and have the ability to interface with all of the .Net database engines... :cool:

Hi,
I've got two tables in Access. The first contains 300 column headers running from top to bottom, i.e:
Title
First Name
Surname
..
..
The second table contains the corresponding data entries for 1000 customers running from left to right, i.e:
MR Trevor Smith ....
MRS Mary Jones ....
Ideally i'd like to append table 2 to the bottom ot table 1 so the correct data field is under the right column header but I can't do this. Is there a transpose style funtion in access which will mean I can convert table 1 to run from left to right instead of top to bottom?
Thanks

I need to start doing some sort of version control with my Access development.
I have seen rumors that SourceSafe can work with Access. (I know you can store a db as a file in SourceSafe but I mean more detailed i.e. Objects )
Has anyone out there successfully used SourceSafe? If so how does one set it up?
Any other suggestions concerning Version Control.
Thanks

I have an mde database originally created in Access 2003. Will I be able to open it in Access 2007?
(I ask because this mde file was originally created in Access 2002, and wouldn't open in A03. We had to track down the creator and get her to resend a new mde file that was 03 compatible. Are we going to run into the same problem after the next upgrade?)
