Adding Attachments Without Bypassing Database Startup
Dec 12, 2013
I have a split database, using Access 2010, Sharepoint is 2007 I believe. I have a form where I can enter requests onto a log and I've set it up to allow attachments. However, I get an error of "Cannot update. Database or object is read-only." if I try to add/remove attachments on a record. I have no issues adding and updating the data other than the attachments.
I've also found that if I bypass the start-up options (using shift) then the attachments work fine. Unfortunately, through trial and error, I haven't been able to find a database option which I can enable and fix the problem.
How to have this functionality enabled without bypassing startup (I've only intended to do basic things like hide the nav pane).

I have an Access 2010 database connected to several SharePoint lists. I'd like to be able to print a report (based on a query) and add that report as a .pdf attachment to the record I was looking at when I generated the report.
At the moment I can save the report as a .pdf to a local file store, then upload it as an attachment, but is there any way to skip that step and add it to the correct record automatically?

I am trying to find the VBA code that adds attachments currently stored in the database to an email. Currently, I have a button that will email the report refernced on my input form. My attachments are stored in a table, but I have built a query for my attachments that wil filter based off the referenced report on the input form. Below is my VBA code to email a report.
Private Sub Command587_Click()
Dim stReport As String
Dim stWhere As String
Dim stSubject As String
Dim NCRNum As String
[code]...

Hi i am working with a database that contains customer information
and sometimes files and attachments will need to be saved into the
database. I presume i will have to save the attachments somewhere
and then link to them, but i really haven't a clue where to start. Does
anybody have any information about this or even know where i can
look for information!
Thanks in advance!

I have attachments I want to store in my database, most are images, some are excel files, etc. I'm sure its better to store a reference to the file instead of the attachment itself. Whats the best way to do something like this? Id like the attachment to still be displayed in the form if its an image...

We're a small shop building a modest database to keep track of our product listings on eBay. Two people on non networked computers are doing the data entry into cloned copies of our database. This includes attached photos for each record. At the end of each week, we want to combine the records created separately into the master database on my system.
It seems like it would be simple enough to just cut and the paste the records from the two databases into the identical master. The problem I'm anticipating concerns the attached photos.
Some strategies are to transfer the records from the data entry computers to the master database while keeping the attached photos intact.
Is there an effective, efficient way to set this up or would it be best to use the OLE format for the pictures instead of attaching them (which I prefer)?

Hi I've been having this same problem for a while and I've had a bit of help here but none of the suggestions have so far worked.
Basically I need a way to stop people tabing through a sub form without entering data. The sub form has a check box that has to be checked (it can't be set as True as default) the required field doesn't work and for some reason the Enforce Referential Integrity on the join between the main table (tblCustInfo) and this one doesn't work either.
tblCustInfo = the main form
tblAgentData = subform
can anyone please help?

Hello,
I have a database with certain startup options for the end user. What I
would like is for the database to prompt for a password ONLY IF the shift key
is used to try and bypass the startup options, so that only an authorized
person with the password can see the background of the database. If I simply
set a database password from the Tools menu, it asks for that password with
the startup options as well, and I actually locked myself out of a database
that way! So there needs to be some kind of check for whether or not the user
attempted to bypass the startup options, and based on that, ask for a
password or not. I am not sure if I can do this through Access options
directly, or I will require some coding, but either method is fine.
Please help!
Thank you,
Kriti

MS Access 2000
Hello everybody,
I am having a strange problem and despite trying out all the suggestions already discussed in this forum, the problem still persists.
My DB is already complete and I have done the following
1) Startup menu/uncheck all the option boxes
2) Tools menu/options/unchecked "windows in taskbar"
3) converted the DB into mde. file
4) Disabled the shift key
However, despite doing all the above, the "Database windows" shows up behind all the forms.
As per suggestions given by many here, I have also used
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdWindowHide
This also does not work.
Also tried running the following in a macro from this link
http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0019.htm
All the above have not worked and if anyone has any ideas or another way of doing this, I would really appreciate it.

I am probably staring right at it - but where is the option to set Access 2010 so that it automatically opens a specified database on startup?

"The key or key combination ^{Break} in FunctionKey_SubForm has invalid syntax or is not allowed"
- -
The "FunctionKey_SubForm" is a macro in this database.
It only does it on my computer when I opens this specific database.
This database works fine (copied it elsewhere) on everyone elses computer and also when I use it one another computer, whether the database is on the server or on the C: drive.
Since it works fine on all other computers, it's a setting in Access which is throwing up the error (even if it is " invalid syntax or is not allowed"), not the database.
Database works fine after I click through it but it's irritating and I don't recall changing anything.

I have a database that logs complaints. I've added a field to calculate the age of a complaint based on the date received and the date resloved. To update this field I have an update query that runs after someone closes an update form. My problem is that I recieve two dialog boxes one that confirms that I'm will be updating the table and another that tells me how many rows were updated. I would not like those boxes to appear so the update would look transparent.

Any help would be really appreciated...
I have a database in the database I have products customers orders etc.
In Products table I have productid price etc. I would like to create another table and this table should consist of all product parts for example.
ProductID x uses
metalnumber23
stone45
plasticnumber43
so all metalnumber23, stone45, plasticnumber43 will be in Parts (new table that i will create) when i am entering a productid to Product table for that productid i should be able to choose which parts from parts table that it uses.
so in the order table if i customer ordered productID x I should be able to see all the parts that ProductID needs in the parts Parts table. There will be maybe 2000 parts but ProductID x will use only 3 of them. And if I create a query lets say order from z date to y dates I should be able to see parts needed for those products ordered.
hope you guys understand and give me a head start i would really appreciete

Hi there, this is my first post, hopefully not too many more problems i will encounter whilst designing my database.Anyway I am trying to add some fotos to each of my records, but not having as much luck as i would like. In the tables, i have made the field OLE object. When i try to add the foto (about 97kb) jpg format, all it does is add a picture of the jpg icon on my field. If i double click on the icon my foto will open, but i wish to have the foto showing in my record. Anyone help me with any ideas? I am using access 2003

Hi there,
I have a bit of a dilemma here.
I have an old database, which is very comprehensive, filled with client names, addresses, and other information.
I have been given a new database, which is more relational and effectient, which splits the client addresses into a seperate table.
I need to add the old data to the new database - so is there a way of doing this whilst maintaining the links between the old addresses and the rest of the old data? What I don't want to have to do is end up going through 3000+ entries sorting out what new CompanyID I should assign...
Any thoughts?
Cheers
Hob

Hello
First let me apologize if I am being stupid, quite new to Access. I am trying to create a database with some pictures in it; I want to design a form that changes the image with each record, (Its for work they want a database of our employees info with a photo of each employee) reading though the help file it seams I need to add a bound image control, I have tried 2 different ways and am still getting the same problem, the first way I tried was to create a text field with the address off the photos (there are .jpg’s) and then add a bound image control on the form and link it to the field. Problem is this just displays the name of the file not the picture (e.g. as you go though the records it shows Mark.jpg, Simon,jpg, Louise.jpg….) I then tried to add a OLE field and add the files that way, if I click on add from file when creating the object I get the same problem just displays the file name, If I click create new bitmap image it works and displays the picture, the problem is the data base file then becomes huge (it was 45 meg with 2 photos, I need to add about 150 in total!. Am I being totaly dumb, is there a way of getting Access to display Jpg’s and ideally have them linked to instead of embedded to keep the size of the database down.
Sorry for rambling! (oh yeh and I am using Access 2003)
Thanks in advance!
Matt

When I add security in the form of a workgroup it only apllies to the front end and anyone can open up the tables on the backend.
How do I secure the whole database. Anyone have any advice on security.

I'm trying to add a record to the members table in the access database located at c:dbmyforum.mdb. So I looked it up and did a copy and paste from an example, and edited it to match what i need. here's what I've got:
Code:<html><body><%set conn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")conn.Provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"conn.Open "c:/db/myforum.mdb"sql="INSERT INTO Members (SN,Password,)"sql=sql & " VALUES "sql=sql & "('" & Request.Form("sn") & "',"sql=sql & "'" & Request.Form("pw") & "')"on error resume nextconn.Execute sql,recaffectedif err<>0 then Response.Write("No update permissions!")else Response.Write("<h3>" & recaffected & " record added</h3>")end ifconn.close%></body></html>
But it keeps coming back with errors. What am I doing wrong? I'm sure that the info from the form is going through, and I've checked the sql several times, although I'm not sure about the vb script cause I'm new to asp(trying to learn it now).

in my daily roll call report i have 2 groups..."on program" and "graduates" these 2 groups are creating in the query...as u see in the 2nd pic... the expression as followed
Expr1: IIf([Date Graduated]<Date(),Date(),[Date Graduated])
next you can see in my 3rd pic the report and the expression that gives the 2 groups there names...it is as followed
=IIf(IsNull([Date Out]),IIf(IsNull([Date Graduated]),"On Program","Graduates"),"Recent Departures")
i will clarify that i took out the names in the roll call but both groups are sorted by the date they came in going down the list..now i need to add another group "Staff Members" to my roll call.every way i have tried altering the query expression or the report expression result in a blank roll call.

I was tasked by my CFO yesterday to add a new element to my existing database. I will try to keep what I am trying to do simple.
Basically we do finance for multiple projects. each project has employers.
My database records these employers names, SSN, dates registered, program they are in, and a few other elements as well.
What I have been tasked to do is create a new table with the project managers in that table. this way in a query or report i can pull "sally sue's" projects or whoever I needed to. There are many PM's who have more than one project.
Here is what I have for relationships:
On the Project Managers table I have a PK for ID and then the PM Name as a second field. the ID field is linked to the Programs table which has a PM ID and Program name
The Program table is also related to the employer table which has all of the employers and their info. the relation between the two tables is the Program Name.
So when I run a query or report my goal is to be able to pick any project manager and get the associated count of employers under all of that projects managers programs. I have gotten errors when running queries. Perhaps I have the relationships set up wrong?

Hi
I was wondering if any one could help me.
I have a database at work with 5500 records, how ever the first 1000 have been lost. There remains records for each customer but the first 1000 records showing what they ordered have disapeared.
I have back ups of the database going back with the first 1000 records complete.
How would i take the 1000 records and add this to the current database where the information is missing? so it wouldnt mess up recent records?
could some one provide me with a step by step account. Would be much appreciated!
Many thanks

I use a database that someone else set up and is no longer here. To get access to the database you need to enter a user id and password. I have a new user who has been getting into the database using an established user's id and password.
I went into the file and found the table with the users, their id's and passwords listed, and added the new person to the table, but I still get an invalid user message when trying to access the database with the new user's information.
I went through the Access Help and tried a couple things it said for adding users to a password protected database, but either I didn't do it right, or the way to add a user is different from what I am getting from Access Help.
Lastly, this database is different in that if I would add a report, it only shows up on my computer when I access the database, the report doesn't show up on anyone else's. That is odd to me, but it is how it works.
Thank you for any help you can give.
