Okay, so I have tried to fix this for three days. When I try to create a button, combo or list box I get the message:
ActiveX Controls Can't Create Object. I have been through Internet Options/Security. I have tried reinstalling, I have tried to look into the registry. I even check Microsoft HELP and Mircosoft website and am getting nowhere. Can anyone please, please help solve this problem because it completely baffles me on how to fix this!!!
When I attempt to create a new DB - by performing Blank Database I immediately get a message 'Object Library not registered'.
If I 'OK' that box and try to create a table, I can do so - create Table in design view.
When I then try to Import external data - an excel file I get the message 'ActiveX component Can't create object'.
I have looked ob various sites for help and forum information regarding these errors but have found nothing conclusive, with specidfic regard to Access 2003.
The version has been loaded on my machine about 1 year as part pf Office Professional but this is the first time I have attempted to run Access itself.
Does any forum member have any ideas as to how this problem could be resolved.
I get this error everytime i try to use any wizard in access, i have uninstalled and reinstalled acces, i looked at the MSDN and i cannot find anything that will fix my problem. I have windows XP and office 2002 if that could help with the solution.
i got this error message when i tried to create a command button... i have to do it without the wizard... then when i tried to get one of those convenient access pics applied to the button i get an error pop up Object variable or With block variable not set
...the errors only just started today... well i played hooky on friday cause of a snow storm so i guess it might be a recent microsoft insecurity update...
running XP pro 2002 SP2 with Access 2003 SP2
:( ...maybe this is the latest microsoft challenge... :mad: ...uninstalling and reinstalling access or all of ms office does not remedy the situation... i searched the forums and cant find a solution :eek: ...
I'm not sure if this is a Query problem or a Report problem, so I'm putting it in the General catagory. If I need to post it in one of the others, please point me the right direction.
I have set up the following:
Query A - Combines data from several tables Query B - Prompts for a text string and places it in a table Query C - Uses the text entered in Query B to select records from Query A. The field that is searched is a text field. Report A – Has an Open procedure that executes a macro that runs Query A. I also have a Close procedure that executes a macro that runs a second report based on Query A against a different table.
When I run the report on my desktop it works properly. I had a user try to run the report and she gets the following error immediately, prior to being prompted for the text.
Error:429;ActiveX component can't create object
I am running Office XP and she is running 2003 with SP2. She has not had problems with other Access reports in the same DB. Any ideas what is missing?
I am trying to connect to MS Access from MS word using the following code but getting the above error message:
Code: Sub GetDataFromDataBase() 'allocate memory for the database object as a whole and for the active record Dim myDataBase As Database Dim myActiveRecord As Recordset
I'm using the below code in msaccess which used to work perfectly on the Win XP platform. I upgraded my OS to Win 7. It's now giving an error as "Runtime Error 429 - ActiveX Component Can't Create Object". I unchecked & rechecked all the library references.
Function GetNetWorkDays(startDate As Date, endDate As Date) As Integer Dim objFunction As MSOWCFLib.OCATP Set objFunction = New MSOWCFLib.OCATP GetNetWorkDays = objFunction.NETWORKDAYS(startDate, endDate) Set objFunction = Nothing End Function
Old OS: Win XP New: Win 7 Old msaccess: 2003 New: 2010 Old office: 2003 New: 2010
I am using the following code but when i run it produces the following error.
Run-time error '429':
ActiveX component can't create object.
then on debug it highlights the line
Set objOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
I have searched online and already tried a suggestion to ensure that mictosoft outlook 14.0 object library is selected in the VBA references.
Code:
Dim objOutlook As Object Dim objMailItem As Object Const olMailItem As Integer = 0 Set objOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") Set objMailItem = objOutlook.CreateItem(olMailItem)
I need to use various activeX controls in MsAccess2003. I downloaded a few activeX controls but I am having a problem with licensing. I registered the controls and the registration succeeded but when I try to add this ActiveX control on a form in MSAccess, I get the message that I don't have the license required to use this ActiveX control and that I should obtain the appropriate licence from the company that provides the licenced OLE object or ActiveX control. Any ideas on how to overcome this problem?
I use the Active X calendar control 10.0 in a number of forms*. The mscal.ocx file is in c:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice 10.
(*In the calendar's Properties it says it is "MSCAL.Calendar.7", which I think is just MS's way of confusing people.)
After splitting the deploying my app, it appears lots of my users either don't have version 10.0 or it is stored someplace else; for example, in C:WindowsSystem32. Because they don't have the correct version/path, everything crashes.
So, how can I easily determine whether users have the right ActiveX in the correct location?
The Microsoft web site says "To distribute your component as part of a Visual Basic application, you can use Package and Deployment Wizard". I don't have that wizard in my version of Access (2002 SP3 on Windows XP), so that's not an option.
Microsoft also says to "To enter the base address for your component, open the Project Properties dialog box and select the Compile tab. The address is entered in the DLL Base Address box, as an unsigned decimal or hexadecimal integer. The default value is &H11000000 (285,212,672). If you neglect to change this value, your component will conflict with every other in-process component compiled using the default. Staying well away from this address is recommended." It seems to make sense that I put the mscal.ocx in the database's directory on the server to serve as the "base address", but other than that this option scares the heck out of me.
Does someone have any suggestions how to easily ensure users have the right ActiveX version on their computer - and in the correct location? (I'm not a super-coder.)
After searching the forums, I've found some information, but not what I need or what works.
I've got everything playing fine, from where people can play a file they choose from a list, but I need to add some advanced controls for Fast Fowarding and such.
Searching google, I've managed to find plenty of VB controls, but none seem to work in VBA. I've set the Media Player references, but when trying:
me.MediaPlayer0.Controls the only option it gives me are Items and Count, not Play, Stop or Pause (or anything similar).
Using Activex controls for capturing video from a webcam or similar. Just looking for a snapshot that I could then forward via email from access.
Ive seen commercial licenses for an activex control. The form Im imagining would have a window showing the live video with a snapshot button where we could store the image as a jpg for example and then generate an email forwarding on the image. It seems possible!
I wrote a custom ActiveX Control in C#.NET using a guide (Google ".net activex control step by step", first link on CodeProject). The control is compiled as a .dll and registered in Access 2007.
When I place the ActiveX control on a Form or Report, I can call its methods from VBA and see its output just fine.
When I open a Print Preview, only the top left corner of the control is shown, the rest is a blank white box. This does not happen with built-in ActiveX Controls (e.g. Calendar control), which print as they should.
I also tried a basic ActiveX Control build using VC++ (the sample control created by the MFC wizard), and that displays and prints correctly.
I have two controls on my form that I want to reference in an append query to create a new record. The first is a text box, the second is a combobox that is populated with all of the dates associated with the text box. The selection of a date updates a subform based off of a hidden column (chart ID, an autonumber field based on combinations of record numbers and visit dates) in the same combobox. I would like the user to be able to enter a new date and create a new record that would contain the next autonumber in association with the new date and the record number from the text box control. I have tried using an append query with the following SQL, but I consistently get errors referring to "type mismatch." Any help would be greatly appreciated; thanks in advance.

Hi, i am using the following code to open another access database. it works fine in fuilltime but when i install a runtime version I get an 'active x cant creat object' error. Does anyone knwo why this is?
Dim appAccess As Object Const strPathToBackup = "C:interim.mdb" Set appAccess = CreateObject("Access.Application") appAccess.OpenCurrentDatabase strPathToBackup appAccess.Visible = True 'do not show database appAccess.Run "Test" appAccess.CloseCurrentDatabase
A2010 - on an existing form I have a few controls that I want to hightlight. I thought I would create a rectangle covering only the desired controls and then make the back colour a light grey. But if I do then I cannot see the controls. If I change the back style to transparent then the colour reverts to nothing and I'm back to square one.
It feels like I want to bring the existing controls to the font - but how?If I create new controls on an existing grey rectangle then it works fine.
I am currently building a database for the company I work for that is fairly similar to the Northwind Database; however it is made from scratch so hopefully some of the common problems with that database won't find their way into mine.My problem is that when I go to my Orders form, I pick a customer from the main form, which creates a record on the Orders table. When I then go to the subform to choose a product/line item, I get the error in my title ("The LinkMasterFields property setting has produced this error: 'The object doesn't contain the Automation object 'OrdersT.") as soon as a product is chosen from the drop down list.
I'm getting an error message (informational only):
The object doesn't contain the automation object 'ClientID.'You tried to run a visual basic procedure to set a property or method for an object. However, the component doesn't make the property or method available for Automation operations.
Check the components documentation for information on the properties and methods it makes available for automation operations. This happens when I start entering data in the field "productname" of a subform.
So I'm assuming something in the form or in the code of the form is referring to ClientID. but I've checked it, and there is nothing referring to it anymore. Well, at least as far as I'm aware of.
This afternoon access crashed without any error, it just closed. Upon reopening the DB again, all my work of the past one and a half week was gone. Normally I always backup the data, but these past days I didn't due to christmas and still working a lot too. So I forgot.
I did some redesigning in the process this evening, deleting and adding some fields and code.
I can't get rid of this error. Can anyone help? Or point me in the right direction?
Also the DB is 3.5MB in size. While it is completely empty. And I can't imagine that some empty tables, queries, forms and a bit of code can be so much. But that's for a later time to worry about I guess, unless one of you says: this and that, maybe that works... Otherwise, I would really be very glad already if the error disappears....
I have a subform with loads of command buttoms on it but if I try and select any of them I get the message "The OnClick you entered as the property setting produced the following error: A problem occured while BCF data collection tool was communicating with the OLE server or ActiveX control". I don't understand what this means and just wondered if anyone could point me in the right direction for resolving the issue.
I am creating an form in a database and whenever one of my procedure's run it creates this error message:
The expression ON Load you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Member already exists in an object module from which this object module derives.
*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.
I just added a ActiveX control to my program and I have a scroll mouse, and there when the user used the mouse to scroll through the records, the record changes but the ActiveX Control doesn't. My activeX Control is used for a digital signature. Anyone Have any ideas?
I use the Calendar ActiveX to select a date. The calendar have a dropdownlistto post the selectede date? I the calendar to dissapear after the date is selected. The selected date should remain in the drop down list. I think that the control have a dropdownlist to show the selection, but i didn't found it. Thanks, Richard
I'm new to ms access 2007. How can I register my ocx files? like comdlg32.ocx? Please help! My .mde file is running but somehow some of the features are not running.
