Is it possible to change ownership of a database to a group rather than an individual? The reason I ask is that i'm due to leave my employment this week and need to generally get things ship shape before I go. I currently own all the DBs that we use and I need to change that so people can take care of them (or wreck them depending on who it is!). I have set up user groups, one of which is "developer" and I would like this group to own the DBs so that they can be passed on without too much fuss.
If not then I need to change the owner to an individual and am really not relishing the prospect of importing all the objects into a new database just to do that, the thing is huge, has loads of fairly intricate permissions which have been carefully honed over the last couple of years. I read somewhere that you can change the DB owner if you exclusively open it but I have tried that and the "Change Owner" button is still greyed out.
Just upgraded to Acccess 2007 and have ownership problem extracting queries from a 2002 db.
When trying to import into a new 2007 or export from the 2002, get "you have no permission" message
Have created a new user tried to change owner of the db, but no permission File security looks correct in that I am owner of the file with full permissions, but Access doesn't recognize me as the owner
Tried logging in as admin, but it isn't the owner either
This is not critical, just very time consuming, this is a test project, but it would be nice not to have to rewrite about 30-40 queries and equivalent forms
I have to change a group membership of one user in an multi user access database. As I see its no possibility to change it in the backend (in X.ldb file) nor in frontend.
I have a spreadsheet that has been downloaded from a website. On the website people have chosen from a group of 28 checkboxes their answer. I have imported this spreadsheet into access. I now need to be able to run a report that shows only the one they chose instead of listing all 28..
I have 30+ columns each table I need to change into sum of.. but its default is group by, and need to change multiple columns to sum - rather than manually each one..
Is there a way to have an expression in the control source of a text box in a report, that re-starts or is exclusive for every group within the report?
I stumbled upon the Option Group function just yesterday and, happy as a clam, I created a group with 2 options in radio button style. I assigned the values to a field called Registration_Type as the 2 options are "Confirmed Registrants" and "Prospective Attendees".
[Great. That part works well. When I look at the table, a 1 or a 2 is in that field so it's great to know how to control accidental ticking of radio buttons (previous 450 records or so didn't have this option group functionality so one might easily tick one of the buttons. So one part of controlling option group I know I can handle via the table itself for now.]
The challenge is how to ensure the user always ticks one or the other ... I went back to the main table and tested the 'required entry' option for the Registration_Type field but forcing an action like this is not ideal in my mind. The usual error message vagueness for the average user is no good and I don't want to limit the user so much.
Is there a way to simply have a popup come up warning that neither radio button was ticked? Perhaps something linked to the form - i.e., maybe "after update"?? I only learned about attaching code to before and after update on controls a couple of days ago, so not sure if this would be best approach.
Just something to let the user know that nothing has been ticked in the option group as that controls in which of 2 reports the data will show up in so any record not ticked might mean a registrant being left out, which would be rather disastrous <g>.
I am trying to change the button color on a subform if a related form data changes.Main form is products with a continuous subform with serial numbers of products i.e, serial number, location, price and a button to add addtional issues if there are any for this particular serial number (this will open up another form related to the serial number so I can add an issues if there are any).The reason I would like the button to be a different color is so I can quickly see if there are any additional notes been added to the serial number. Just in case you may ask why not add the field to the continuos form is that the issues and be quite lengthy and there may be lots of serial numbers on the form
I have not done much work in later version of Access. Now I found if I change a design in one form and similar forms (names are different) which are linked to the same tables got changed as well without openning them up and making changes. Is this something new with Access 2003?
I'm trying to create a Query. I have a field "Name" from the table "Products" and the field "Quantity" from the table "Deliveries". Currently, The same product name will appear several times with their quantities. I want to SUM all of those quantities together and only have the Product name appear once. If it's a diffrent product name, then sum all of it's quantities together etc. I'm having a tough time writing a proper formula, It either has syntax errors or produces more than one field, which I don't understand. I need a formula that I can insert into the design view of the query. This formula will also create a new data field to hold the information. Can anyone help?
p.s. Do I have to use SELECT for both Name and Quantity? Where do I insert GROUP BY? I'm so confused!! I've tried things like (SELECT Name, (SELECT SUM(Quantity) FROM Deliveries) FROM Products....by now where am I supposed to write GROUP BY???
I know you have probably seen this a trillion times, but being new to all this, it is discouraging to say the least! Please help...
I think maybe I should upload the database, let me know.
Here are the names:
Table name: PPM Data
Fields: Company PPM Month PPM Amount
There are 10 different companies, and I need top 6 months data per each Company, to eventually only show the 6 amounts. I have tried all the equations I can find. But I don't think I am doing it right. I have tried to make 10 different queries for each company and than tried to join those queries, and that just didn't work.
I have tried Allen Browne, confusing, and I have tried Acc2002 for their equations for Top N per group, I still can't make out what they are saying without the actual database to look at.
Hi, i have a combo box that query a tabel to get the date's i chose from but she repeat the samedate if i have a 2 records with date 12-9-2005 i see 2 in the combo box ho i can join them to see only one date fron them
I have a field on a table that is a memo field. I am trying to write a query to include this field but get the "Can't group on memo or OLE object. Any ideas on why and how can I query with this memo field included?
I'm trying to view the last two valuations for each property so that they can be compared. I can pull out the last valuation for each property and can pull out the top two records but not for each property, just shows me the top 2 of all records.
Hi, I have just made my maiden voyage on the good ship "Security Wizard" and the water has been a little rough but as yet I still have my sea-legs intact!
Slight problem though... I want users to be able to add data to a table but not to be able to view the whole table if they try and open it in the database window. Now I know reasonable measures would just hide the DB window but I have the threat of Data Protection Auditors looming over me becuase management "forgot" to tell me security was required and it has already been breached before I used the wizard.
Anyway, I did some research on here and I found a method whereby I can set the table so only I have permission to view/add data, then I can get users to add data via a query with permissions set to Owners.
I'm really hoping that someone will come to my rescue and tell me that there's a much easier way than that...
I need to execute this query from an ASP . Net page. I'm connected to an Access 2002 DB.
SELECT tblBudget.GroupCode, tblBudget.GCDescriptioon, tblBudget.Amount FROM tblBudget GROUP BY tblBudget.GroupCode, tblBudget.GCDescription, tblBudget.Amount ORDER BY tblBudget.GroupCode;
If I delete tblBudget.GCDescription and tblBudget.Amount from the "GROUP BY" instruction it does not work.
What I want to do is that in case tblBudget.GroupCode is repeated (e.g. several records with the same group code) I want to display only one line summarizing all info for the given group code.
The image above shows results from a query I've created. However, I need to group the results by Product Id and display a sum of the individual Product Id's. So I should have something like:
Commercial Loan Mr Steve F Cobblestone LNCLCLRE £299,491.33 Demand Deposit Mr Steve F Cobblestone DD033 £7,402.81 Demand Deposit Mr Steve F Cobblestone DD043 £3,929.78 Time Deposit Mr Steve F Cobblestone TD013 £12,195.60 Time Deposit Mr Steve F Cobblestone TD018 £961,924.12 Time Deposit Mr Steve F Cobblestone TD025 £113,483.58
Any ideas how I construct a query to display the results as per above??
i want the query to do this 12/02/2001 02:00 18 12/02/2001 05:00 25
i cant find anything anywahere and its use ids for a chart in which the chart wizard allows grouping by 1 hour and not by more than 1 hour any help will be much obliged
I need to output an HTML table with the following headings:
============================================== Event Title | Event Price | No. Delegates Booked | Total Price ==============================================
How do I group(/join?) the tables to show this data? I'm confident with doing the recordset stuff, it's just that I have no idea how to build a SELECT string, with data grouped into events where the total number of delegates who've booked on that event will be added together.
I am using Access 97 and I am getting very stuck when I am making a group by query.
Basically I have a table which has for engineering jobs (and a few other collums): [id], [Site Code], [Ref Number], [Job Size], [Date Origionated] and [Date Completed]
I then have made a query (called [MG - CWD SLA]) which works out for all jobs between 2 dates, how long they have been running for and if they have met the Service Level Agreeement:
SELECT Sheet1.[SITE CODE], Sheet1.[Ref Number], Sheet1.[Job Size], Sheet1.[DATE ORIGINATED], Sheet1.[JOB COMPLETE], (CalcWorkdays([DATE ORIGINATED],[JOB COMPLETE])) AS Expr1, IIf(IsNull(Sheet1.[JOB COMPLETE]),"Not finished",IIf([Job Size] Like "M*",IIf(Expr1<=10,"Y","N"),IIf([Job Size] Like "S*",IIf(Expr1<=5,"Y","N"),iif([Ref Number] LIKE "ID*",iif(Expr1 <= 1,"Y","N"),"N/A")))) AS Expr2 FROM Sheet1 WHERE (((Sheet1.[Help Desk Type])="CWD") AND ((Sheet1.[DATE ORIGINATED]) Between [Type the beginning date:] And [Type the ending date:])) ORDER BY [DATE ORIGINATED];
I then have made a summary query based on the above query which gives me for every site, between 2 dates; the number of jobs who have met the SLA or not as the case may be.
SELECT [MG - CWD SLA].[SITE CODE], [MG - CWD SLA].Expr2, count(*) FROM [MG - CWD SLA] GROUP BY [MG - CWD SLA].[SITE CODE], [MG - CWD SLA].Expr2;
What I would like to do is for every like outputted by this query, give the number of jobs for this site between those 2 dates, so then for every line of the query give the percent of jobs which met the sla/not met the sla or not finished.
I have been messing around with distinct and I cannot get this to work! Also been trying to do a join or a subquery, but not sure how to integrate this with working with a query based on a query.
I want to run a crosstab query on a table that looks like the below:
ID STORE RECEIVED ITEM RESPONSE 1, 123, 2006-03-30, Name, Tony 1, 123, 2006-03-30, Position, Baron 1, 123, 2006-03-30, Name, Simon 1, 123, 2006-03-30, Position, Mgr 1, 321, 2006-03-30, Name, Sarah 1, 321, 2006-03-30, Position, Analyst
The crosstab query as it stands only pulls back the first and last records as it wont allow grouping on the value field, which in this case is the response field. All other fields are row headings.
The report looks like this: 1, 123, 2006-03-30, Tony, Baron 1, 321, 2006-03-30, Sarah, Analyst
Any ideas on how I can bring back both reccords, eg Group on the all fields? It should look like this:
Hi everyone. I'm having some issues creating a query i need for work. I'm able to do this on the report level with a group and footer to get this total. however due to further complexity and Queries that will call upon this one, it needs to be in the first level query i create.
What i have is a database. There are Employees, Dates Paid, timesheet dates, Pay TYPE and hours. here is an Example of a few lines of data. this is how the database is created. it creates a new record for every different pay type paid that week.
