Best Way To Distribute Application
Jan 3, 2006
Hi, I have a large database containing information that people all over the country want to access. I've designed a main form that contains 3 subforms that queries information from raw data. Now that the database is complete, i'm looking for the best way to distribute it. I've tried to put it on the network drive, but it has been rediculoursly slow. Could somebody tell me what would be the best way to do this? Thanks!

I have developed a db (A2K) which will be distibuted through our companies franchising system to various licensees. These licensees generally operate in a single PC environment but occasionally they will be based on a server network. The single user is fine but I am stumped by the server situation as it impacts on the various links I have set up within the database to files etc that are part of the program but are external such as Excel, Word files. The current links are all set up as C:MainFolderNameFilename. Of course these all stop working when I place it on a server and link the users up via shortcuts. On our own installation I changed the links to the \MyServerMainFolderNameFilename format and everythings fine but due to the number of links this is a fairly lengthy process and I wouldn't want to have to repeat it at every clients installation.
Can any one please advise me if there is a way to set it up so that I could say enter the clients server name in a field. Then insert that field's contents into the pathway details for the links so that they all update automatically.
Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I want to distribute an Access database to users, some of whom may not have Access installed on their computers.
The database has been developed using Access 2003 and I was wondering how I can distribute the database as a runtime version to my users.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Harmonic

I created the database on my computer. I added security and split the database to put the tables on the the server. Everything works just fine on my computer. However, when I try to copy the 3 files for the front end of the database to other computers on the network, it won't work.
Perhaps I'm confused as to what files need to be migrated to each additional computer or I don't have the security setup properly.
Right now, I move 3 files. The main database file with the front end. The shortcut file that is created when you add security and the security file that is created when you add security to the database.
I'm stumped.

I have a Query with many part numbers in column A and their inventory location(s) listed in column B. However, some part numbers are listed 2 or 3 times because the item is located in multiple inventory locations. How can I take these items and put list their inventory locations in multiple columns across one row?
What I have:
ITEM# Quantity INVENTORYLOCATION
A1 5 Warehouse 1
A2 3 Warehouse 1
A2 6 Warehouse 2
A3 2 Warehouse 1
What I want:
ITEM# INVENTORYLOCATION Quantity 1 INVENTORYLOCATION 2 Quantity 2
A1 Warehouse 1 5
A2 Warehouse 1 3 Warehouse 2 6
A3 Warehouse 1 2

We 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!!!!

Hello,
I have finally completed my database project. It is a split database. Back End on a network server.
I want to distribute the front end to all users however I want to limit to the best I can what they can do to it. Can someone please advise me on the best way to wrap up and send out my front ends?
All security has been established. I am talking about the availability to see the tables, macros, control bars etc..
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

All -
I have just about finished up a Split DB that I plan on deploying in a LAN environment. The goal of course is to turn what looks like an Access Application now into a non-access looking application where the Front End can be distributed and run on any computer within the LAN.
I have several questions that I may need some help on.
How does one go about hiding the Access Shell and/or Ribbon/Nav in 2007?
How would I add a form that allows for a user to navigate to and connect to the back-end without having them check all of the appropiate tables and then browse to the back-end file if they have a different drive letter mapped to the location of the back-end files for example?
Any tips on how to sign the DB so the pesky Trust Center question can be bypassed?
Any other tips on how to simply distribute this for a LAN environment and/or make it look NOT like an Access DB with access to view the Forms, Tables, Queries, etc. This is my first Access DB project, let alone a LAN distributable one.
Thanks!

i want to display a single field values in list box with query as row source.the query will produce variable number of records or rows. sometime 1, sometimes 3 or 6 my thought is to distribute these records/row into list box column. for example:
if query = 1 then listbox column = 1
if query = 6 then listbox column = 3 (two rows per column).

I have a list that shows how many books we have for each PO No. (Sorted by PO No.) Like below:
LIST 1:
Code:
PO NoTOTAL BOOKS
PO-0001 12
PO-0002 15
PO-0003 26
Now I would like to distribute/divide these different books to boxes and each box gets maximum 10 books. Like below list:
LIST 2:
Code:
BOX NOBOOKSPO NO
0001 BOOK 1~10 PO-0001
0002 BOOK 11~12 PO-0001
0002 BOOK 1~8 PO-0002
0003 BOOK 9~15 PO-0002
0003 BOOK 1~3 PO-0003
0004 BOOK 4~13 PO-0003
0005 BOOK 14~23 PO-0003
Format is not important in the list2, for example in Box 0002 we have book 11~12 means (book 11 of 12 +book 12 of 12) in po-0001
+ book 1 of 15 until book 8 of 15) in po-0002
books have bookno, for example for po-0001 we have 12 different books it means we have bookno (1 of 12) until (12 of 12) for this po no.
How I can produce automatically list 2 from list 1 by query or coding.

I have multiple databases (Front-end, Back-end, Import, Reporting) which enables auditors in our company to audit loans.
I use an Import database which imports a random sample of loans (10%) into the Back End database for audit. I import a spreadsheet of loans (let's say 5000 loans) into the Import database, and I have the query return 10% of the loans, which is then imported into our Back-end database for audit (500 loans for audit).
Currently the auditors look at the daily list of loans (the 500 imported loans) and divide the work amongst themselves (5 auditors will audit 100 loans each.) They decide Bob will do 1-100; Joe will do 101-200; Bill will do 201-300; etc.
Is there a way using a query to assign these loans to specific auditors when importing the loans into the BE for audit? I would need to enter how many auditors will be working the loans so the work is divided evenly, and then enter the auditor's initials. (Since the auditors perform different audits, I would like the ability to select or key in auditor initials when importing the loans..

Looking for efficient table structure for this. Let's say I have a list of contractors who will get paid a certain amount of money each week. The amount of money changes each week by measuring the amount of work done, giving it a price and calculating it. The fields are these:
[pk]WeeklyWorkID
WorkID
Quantity
UnitPrice
Total=Qty*UnitPrice (not stored in this table)
EmployeeID
WeekID
So far, it's all good, but we wish to pay the contractors in an unusual way. Let's say he makes $16,000 of work this week, and we want to pay him using cash AND/OR either one or multiple debit cards. For example:
Cash: $1,500
Debit card 45: $7,500
Debit card 71: $4,000
Debit card 13: $3,000
Total = $ 16,000
We can only deposit $7,500 max in each card. But it's even worse... two or more contractors can SHARE the card and it's not always the same card. Sounds pretty funky, but it's what the company wants to do. So, what would you recommend me in this case?
I'm guessing I'm gonna need these tables: tbWeeks to hold the week number, tbCards to store the cards' info, and an extra table to make a many to many relationship between the cards and the employees.

L-0003 C-6000 C-8000 C-9000

When putting together the final application, you don't want the user to see all the usual default menu options.
1) Which access items should I hide?
2)Let's say I make some modifications after we go live. How can I get the new forms, modules or whatever to the .mdb in use? Would I just delete the tables in the modified .mdb and then import (File/Get External Date/import) the tables with the live data?. It's not a split db, btw.
3) Are there any other options or procedures I should think about for maintainence? For instance, right now I use the compact on close option which has proved to be very useful.
Thanks,
scratch

Can anyone point me in the right direction to produce an application diagram.
Sort of a map of an app, what data it hold in laymans terms rathers than table and field definitions. What forms do what, and how the whole application fits together.
Thanks for any assistance you can offer.

This seems like a very silly question but I wondered if someone could tell me how I open up another mdb file from a form?
I've tried the following
On Error GoTo Err_Command976_Click
DoCmd.Quit
Dim stAppName As String
stAppName = "S:updateUpdateMDEUtility.mdb"
Call Shell(stAppName, 1)
Exit_Command976_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_Command976_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Command976_Click
End Sub
But I just keep getting "Invalid Call Procedure or Argument"
Many Thanks
Andy

I have developed an application which I want to keep safe from being tampered with by user.s So once a .mdb database application has been developed what is the best way to then distribute the application to a client (customer who has paid for the application) so that the application can't then be tampered with ?

Hello,
I have finished a program with ACCESS 2007 (VBA) at work. Now, my boss wants his employees to use it from different computers. What would I have to do to make this work?? I suppose ACCESS has a runtime version or executable that I can install on every computer of the company? Or do I have to install ACCESS 2007 on every terminal (which would be very bad by the way)?? I would appreciate it if somebody would give me a hand on this since I have never done this before.
Thank you very much
PS: All the computers are on a network
