Connection Between SQL Server And MS Access

Jun 17, 2006

Hi :

I have a question of the connection between SQL Server and MS Access.

I have a project, which is using SQL Server as backend, we use MS Access forms as the frontend.

Firstly, I created the datbase (db1) in the SQL Server, and create a few tables in db1. And then, I create a few forms in the MS Access, I used ODBC connection to link tables from SQL Server to MS Access, it is working fine. Those forms can access the linked tables.

After it is done, I put the MS Access database in the sharing drive, many people can share the files in this sharing drive.

When I go to my associate's computer, and then open the MS Access database in the sharing drive. The forms is working, but, it cannot access to linked tables from SQL Server.

I go back my computer again and then open the MS Access database, it is working fine.

What's the problem with it?
Does anybody need to install SQL Server software and also have db1 database in SQL Server and the path?

I want any user can access the linked tables from SQL Server, but I do NOT want any user can open the SQL Server and open the tables directly. I just want the users can access the linked tables through MS Access Forms only. Because I will make security in the MS Access. So, I don't let the users modify/open the tables in the MS Access, the users must access the tables via the forms only.

Please tell me the steps how to solve it.

Please help.

Thanks.

Remote Deskptop Connection To Access DB On Server

Apr 10, 2007

HiI currently have an Access Database in a BE/FE, server/client LAN architecture at a single office location. My client would like to allow one user to 'add new records' to the database on the weekends (i.e. after hours), without needing to come into the office.From my research, it seems I can setup Remote Desktop to connect from the client's home PC directly to the server PC, across the internet, using Windows XP Professional on both computers. Is it that simple, or should I be considering other things?

SQL Server Connection?

Jan 30, 2007

Hi all,

I have an .adp that works fine on a number of people's laptops.

One of the users however, keeps getting an error message stating that SQL Server does not exist or access has been denied.

This particular user is definitely setup on SQL Server with dbo permissions. She can also ping the server.

I have tried creating a DSN and this doesn't work either.

I am at a loss as to why this error message is occurring given that she can see the Server and has definitely been setup.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Kabir

Invoking The 'login To A SQL Server Connection' Dialog

Aug 30, 2005

Hello again,

I have a MS Access project that uses a SQL Server connection to retrieve data. It is set up to authenticate the user every time the database is used, which is what I want it to to.

The problem is the timing of the dialog. In 'design mode', Access tries to show the Database window as soon as the file is loaded, realizes that it has to fetch data from the SQL connection, and prompts the user for the password - this is fine. However, the 'release version' has a different setup. Automatic showing of the database window is disabled, and the user controls the app via a customized menu instead. The result is that Access only prompts the user for his SQL Server credentials when a form is opened - this isn't OK. I would like Access to always ask for a SQL logon when the file is opened, even in 'release' mode.

I'm kinda new to using Access and SQL Server together, but I suppose there is some way of programatically invoking the dialog via a macro, right ? If so, what function should I use, and how do I make a macro that is run immediately after opening the file ?

It would also be nice if there was some way of detecting a successful logon, so that it can reinvoke the dialog indefinitely if logon fails.

Thanks for everything :)

How To Establish The Connection Between Ms-Access2000 & Oracle Using DAO Connection?

Sep 26, 2005

Dear Guys,
How to Establish the connection between Ms-Access2000 & Oracle using DAO Connection through Code?.

I created one table in Oracle and I created User-DSN in ODBC.
I linked that oracle table into Ms-Access MDB using Link table option in ms-Access.

Now, Whenever I open that mdb, we need to establish the ODBC connectivity automatically through code (I mean, we need to refresh automatically).

I need to hardcode all the information in the Ms-Access code.

My User DSN Name: abcd
Oracle Database Name: abcd
Schema Name(User Name): abcd
password: abcd

Ms Access 2003 Connection With Asp

Apr 4, 2008

hi everyone,

i have an access file (access 2003) in my root folder. an ASP page where i select the records from the access database table. in this page all are working perfect. my asp code:

ASP Code: Original - ASP Code <%Dim adoConDim rsGuestbookDim strSQLSet adoCon = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")adoCon.Open "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("testdb.mdb")Set rsGuestbook = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")strSQL = "SELECT * FROM table_name ORDER by user_id;"rsGuestbook.Open strSQL, adoCon%><table bgcolor="#ffffff"><%Do While not rsGuestbook.EOF%><tr> <td><a href="somepage.asp?user_id=<%Response.Write (rsGuestbook("user_id"))%>"><%Response.Write (rsGuestbook("user_id"))%></a></td> <td><a href="somepage.asp?user_id=<%Response.Write (rsGuestbook("user_id"))%>"><%Response.Write (rsGuestbook("email"))%></a></td> <td><a href="somepage.asp?user_id=<%Response.Write (rsGuestbook("user_id"))%>"><%Response.Write (rsGuestbook("city"))%></a></td></tr><%rsGuestbook.MoveNextLooprsGuestbook.CloseSet rsGuestbook = NothingSet adoCon = Nothing%></table> <%Dim adoConDim rsGuestbookDim strSQL Set adoCon = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") adoCon.Open "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("testdb.mdb") Set rsGuestbook = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") strSQL = "SELECT * FROM table_name ORDER by user_id;" rsGuestbook.Open strSQL, adoCon%> <table bgcolor="#ffffff"><%Do While not rsGuestbook.EOF%><tr>  <td><a href="somepage.asp?user_id=<%Response.Write (rsGuestbook("user_id"))%>"><%Response.Write (rsGuestbook("user_id"))%></a></td>  <td><a href="somepage.asp?user_id=<%Response.Write (rsGuestbook("user_id"))%>"><%Response.Write (rsGuestbook("email"))%></a></td>  <td><a href="somepage.asp?user_id=<%Response.Write (rsGuestbook("user_id"))%>"><%Response.Write (rsGuestbook("city"))%></a></td></tr><%rsGuestbook.MoveNextLooprsGuestbook.CloseSet rsGuestbook = NothingSet adoCon = Nothing%></table>
when i click one of the links to view the details of each record, the page displays this error:

Access Connection Problem

Sep 21, 2006

Hi, I am completely new to ASP. I have experience in other programming languages, but for my job I need to use ASP, sigh.

Anyways, just learning ASP I decided to try a free host to "get to grips" with it. It has been great for the first couple days, and am moving onto databases.

I have hit a snag where I upload a simple MS Access database to the host (7host.com) and try and connect to it. I have tried W3Schools, and numerous other tutorials but none of them seem to work

This is the kind of code I am trying:

Code:Set conn = server.createobject("adodb.connection")conn.connectionstring = "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=db1.mdb"conn.Open
Which comes up with this error:

Code:Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver]General error Unable to open registry key 'Temporary (volatile) Jet DSN for process 0x1238 Thread 0x10b0 DBC 0x267a024 Jet'./virtual/test.asp, line 16
Now, I really don't have a clue about ASP databases, so please be gentle ><

Thanks

Specifying Connection String In MS Access Forms

May 9, 2013

I have a question about connection strings. Basically I have an access front end and an access back end. It works fine for now, but when it gets rolled out, I don't want to have to manually relink the tables every time. Is it possible to hard-code the database connection strings for all the tables used in the solution as the paths won't change once deployed?

MS Access Front-end/SQL Back-end Connection Issues

Nov 9, 2006

I have an MS Access front-end with a SQL back-end database. It works great, I connect the MS Access front-end to the SQL back-end using a File DSN.

I have a few users (who are in the database the most) who get ODBC disconnection errors time to time. The cause of the error is not consistent, they seem to just appear out of no where. The table that reports the disconnection is not consistent either.

The only way for the users to resolve the errors is to exit the MS Access database, and then re-enter it.

I have had the DBA team analyze the SQL server, and it does not appear to be having any difficulties. We moved the database to another server (so it would be on a server with less traffic) and I rebuilt the File DSN. But the errors continue.

I will have the network team look into any errors, but I am not certain if they will find anything or not.

Has anyone run into this, and what resolutions did you come up with/work arounds did you perform? I am starting to consider upgrading to a Visual Basic .Net front-end, but wanted to see what options were left.

Thank you for your time.

T.J.

General :: Access Runtime And ODBC Connection Can't Get It To Work?

Aug 31, 2012

I have a Access front end connected to a MS SQL database using a ODBC connection which is working fine of course.

When I compile it as a runtime version and install it on the business computer I get an error with the ODBC connection (I can't remember exactly what pops up). On the business computer I have installed SQL Native Client and in the ODBC added a System DSN (which works).

General :: MS Access Reading Data From ODBC Connection

Feb 10, 2015

I am in need of consultation for MS Access reading data from ODBC connection. I have SQL Server that has all the data for the project financials etc.

I need a database that will read only certain data from the tables, for example, I don't need to import all 500,000 lines from SQL through ODBC connection, I just want to bring certain data for a list of projects whichever are opened and load only that data in MS Access so the group then can add additional details for that project in a shared MS Access.

Right now, all I can do is connect to that database through ODBC and brings all the data which I don't need all as it increases the size of the database, but just a criteria to specify which data to bring, if that's possible to do.

Modules & VBA :: Refresh Linked Tables When Connection Lost Without Closing Access Database

Sep 4, 2014

I have MDB database linked to SQL SERVER through VPN connection.I created links to the sql server Links are dsnless..Everything works fine but when I lost VPN connection or sql connection has been broken I can't refresh links to the tables.I receive message 3146 sql connection failed..I must close database and start again...

I tried different methods like ado,dao, and vba docmd.transferdatabase,aclink... but no success, table cant be relinked.

Only way I can relink is to change ip adress in conn.string

E.g. 192.124.0.2 (1st ip- router server ip) and after connection failed i can use 192.124.0.32 (2nd ip - server local ip) and that's it if i lost connection for the 3rd time... i must restart application.

It seems that access database keep the previous connection..how to reset or drop database connection to the sql server and refresh links to the tables with vba code without closing access database...

Access FE SQL Server BE

Dec 5, 2007

We're currently looking at changing a couple of my more complex Access 2003 databases to Access Front End with a SQL Server Back End. This should give us better stability and reduce network traffic loads. I was looking at the Access help file on Upsizing and came across the following paragraph. On face value to a novice like me this would seem the easy option - but is it?

"Create an Access database front-end to an SQL Server database back-end so that you can create a front-end/back-end application.

This approach requires very little application modification since the code is still using the Jet database engine. "

Would anyone recommend this approach?

SQL Server To Access

Feb 15, 2006

I am importing an Excel file into a table in SQL Server that was created by an AS400 program.

I linked this table in MS Access. The date fields from the SQL Server table are split out. DSREQM is the month and day. DSREQY is the year. When opening the table it looks like this:

DSREQM DSREQY
215 6

I need to be able to convert this is a field to 2/15/06. However I cannot get this to work. For some reason when I execute the query it comes out as 8/02. Here is what I have:

DelDate: Format([DSREQM],"mdd") & "/" & Format([DSREQY],"y")

Any ideas?

Access Using Jet And SQL Server With ADO

Aug 29, 2007

Hi

I am attempting to write an application, using Access2003 as the front end. The Backend May be either Jet (ie an MDB), or SQL Server.

I am trying to make it so that the same code works regardless of the back end.

My approach has been to set the forms recordset to an ADO recordset like so:

Set Rs = New ADODB.Recordset
'Rs.CursorLocation = adUseClient
Rs.CursorLocation = adUseServer
Rs.Open strSQL, gcn, adOpenDynamic, adLockOptimistic
'
Set Me.Recordset = Rs

Anyone done this, and willing to sahre information/pitfalls.

First problem I am encountering is that Jet only seems to like .CursorLocation = adUseClient, and SQL Server only seemns to like .CursorLocation = adUseServer

MS Access And Sql Server Permissions

May 8, 2007

I have created an adp, and have created stored procedures for all of my forms. In the SQL Server database I have given my users permissions as db_datareader and db_datawriter, however they were unable to open any of my forms because they didn’t have execute permissions on my stored procedures. I finally had to give them permissions as db_owner so they could use my forms. Do I have to give them db_owner permissions to execute my stored procedures? I know I can go in and assign them execute permissions for my stored procedures, but there has to be a better way. Does anyone know how to give users execute permissions on stored procedures without having to give them db_owner permissions or having to grant execute permissions for each stored procedure individually?

I am still in the development phase of my project and having to assign users or groups with each stored procedure I create could really be a pain. Can someone please help me?
