I have a problem with making a (simple!) search form work in Access 2000. I wrote the code in (what i believe to be) Access 2000 version, and it runs on my machine that is Access 2002-3. The search form uses VBA code; an if-then logic for 3 fields that are chosen by the user, and discounts fields that are not selected. The code then filters results from a query based on 2 tables and presents these in another form.
This all works fine on my pc, and on others using Access 2002-3, with macro security set at medium (and macros approved to run). However, the search form does not work on pc's running Access 2000. I do not know the security levels for these pc's but please if anyone knows of what may be causing this... please help!!
I have built a rather extensive database using Access 2000. When I install it on an Access 2003-enabled machine, the first time it is opened, the user is presented with the following errorbox:
"An error occurred and this feature is no longer functioning properly. Would you like to repair this feature now?"
At this point, clicking "Yes" results in an update the installation of Access 2003. Then the database must be opened manually again. Then, the following is displayed:
"Module not found."
Closing the database at this point and then opening it again results in a normally functioning database.
I have several questions:
1) What is the feature that is no longer functioning properly? 2) What is updated when the installation exec runs? 3) What module is not found? I assume this is one of the VBA modules that I've created, but I've check all 62 of them and they all seem to be there available. 4) My first guess was a reference problem, but I've checked the references used and all are available, as far as I can tell. These are the ones that I have referenced: VBE6.DLL, MSACC9.OLB, DAO360.DLL, STDOLE2.TLB, MSCAL.OCX, MSADO25.TLB, MSO9.DLL. 5) After getting the first error - the one about nonfunctioning feature, I clicked "no" to the repair now question. This does nothing except the database remains open. At this point, I opened the code and tried to compile, but I get the "module not found error". I likewise tried to set a breakpoint in one of the first modules and I get the same result. 6) I even tried to copy the forms, queries, tables, and reports into a blank database with no references and no other extraneous code and received the same result.
This site has been extremely helpful in the past and I am really relying on you guys again for the same stupendous help now.
I have an Access 2000/2003 database which opens up and displays correctly in Access 2007, but when I go to use the File>Print command, or for that matter any of the other pull down menu's nothing happens?
Has anyone else experienced thisproblem, or does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
I have a database that currently has security in place so that users input their own usernames and passwords to access the database. The users have recently been added to a windows 2000 server and I want to be able to use their windows 2000 server logon credentials to provide them with automatic access to the database. Is there anyone out there who knows how to set this up? It is a rather urgent request if you could get back to me either on this forum or via email
I am opening and closing a series of Excel 2000 Workbooks using Access 2000 VBA and want this sequence to be able to complete without any human intervention.
However, there are 2 instances when this stops and waits for a human option to be selected:
1. When the spreadsheet is password protected 2. When the spreadsheet has automatic links I get the message:
"The Workbook you opened contains automatic links to information in another workbook. Do you want to update this workbook with changes made to the other workbook?"
How can I code it so that in situation 1 it skips this file and in situation 2 it automatically defaults to do not update?
If I have a report in MS Access 2000 generated based on the criteria selected of a project with work order "9999" with the labor costs, materials costs and the Totals of each crew1, crew2,... and I would like to have those expenditures populated in corresponding cel in Excel for each crew, HOW would I do it?
To think it out loud, could I create a button on a form, so when I select the criteria for the work order, and when I click the button, it should refresh/update the Exel file with the new data...?? How do I write VBA code for that...?
I have recently been doing a conversion for my boss for a access 2000 database (both front and backend) to a MSSQL backend.
I finished the conversion today (as quite a lot of the code / queries ran slow due to access running the queries locally rather than on the server). And tested it on my and my boss's machine with no problems so he gave the go ahead to update everybody to our new mssql 2000 backend with the modified frontend.
This is when the problems started; We had two different sets of forms for accessing one of our databases systems - the log system, one is the original dynaset based form, and the other is a newer set which uses snapshot views and preforms updates via queries. Nobody uses the old dyanset system apart from my boss and one of the administrative team as they have things on that window which they need to see. About 30 minutes into the release of the new database the system frooze up on my bosses computer and nobody could create a new log (the server was timing out). I assumed this had something to do with the old dynaset's creating locks on the table.
I offlined the database and kicked everybody out of the front end, turned it on again and tied again, this time banning everybody from the dynaset system. Within 10 minutes another computer frooze up, again with a timeout on the insert query. I discovered that after you had added a new log to the database it would timeout on all subquent additions (something it hadn't done during testing) . Further investigatiion showed it was the snapshot list window causing the error, so coded the add log window to close the list before preforming the insert query and then reopen it afterwards. This allowed my machine to make multible additions without flaw. So I released a new client to everybody. 15 minutes later it was timing out again, but this time there you could not even make one new record.
I checked for locks on the table though the server management table and couldn't find any for the Log table. I have restarted the SQL server box and with no avil. So I reverted our backend to the access mdb file and told people to use the old client.
I am at a complete lose to why this is happening, if anybody has had any expericences like this or knows the cause please tell me.
Some information on the database in question.
It was made as an access 2 database all intergrated into one file, then it was seperated into two files (frontend and backend). Upgraded to Access 97, then to 2000 before this final update to MSSQL 2000.
The log system has two main tables. The first is the log title / info table which links (one to many) to a log entry table. This problem only occurs on the main log table and does not appear to be reoccurring anywhere else within the database. The main log table has just under 18,000 rows in it.
Could anyone out there tell me if it is possible to make the output on an Access form read only. I want to be able to input information as records, but when it is saved I don't want it be able to be altered. Mainly I am saving recipes on a form, and I don't want my children to be able to add anything to a record once it has been saved. Thanks in advance Ken
Hi guys . i wonder how i can trap the following errors in access 2000 forms. I have the database tables in sql server 2000 and front end is made by access 2000 forms. I be happy if some one show me how i can trap these errors and promt aproperte message to the user when they violate them using forms.Thanks
1)Violation of not null constraint 2)primary key violation 3)Trigger violation 4)and other erros

These instructions were for Access 2000. I noticed that there are seperate instructions for doing this using Access 2003.:

My questions are: 1. If multiple users access this database using different versions of Access (2000 and 2003) will it not work for some? 2. do i have to modify code if i update to 2003?
Code: Private Sub Command26_Click() If Forms![test site]![prp test].Form.[A Right Answer] = -1 Then Forms![test site]![number correct] = Forms![test site]![number correct] + 1 End If DoCmd.FindNext End Sub
Then when clicked it checks a yes/no box to see if "A right Answer" is the correct yes. Then it should pop to the main form and take the number correct cell and add one to it. I am trying to get the record to go to the next record inside the sub-form but docmd.findnext seems to be wrong too.
I am glad to join you and i have this problem. I am creating a database for motor vehicles. I got this code from KBAlertz web site under article number (210242).
However, i am using ms access 2003. I intend to have three text boxes (VIN, Begin Date, End date) on the Query form, such that if i only have the VIN the query will return it if it is in the record, or alternatively by dates.
Please inspect for me the code below i do not know where i am going wrong and it's my first time to encounter VB, i didn't know how to attached my database to this post. i left comments as originally provided:
Private Sub cmdRunQuery_Click() Dim db As DAO.Database Dim QD As QueryDef Dim where As Variant Set db = CurrentDb() .....
I'm trying to calculate a numeric value of a field based on the value of another field as a row is created using an "After Insert" macro. To test this I've created a table which has two integer columns "NUMBER1" and "NUMBER2". The macro was defined using the wizard as:
Code: EditRecord SetField Alias Name NUMBER2 Value = 5+[NUMBER1] End EditRecord NUMBER2 is not populated when I enter a value in NUMBER1
I get the following in USysApplicationLog:
Error Description -20335 EditRecord failed because the default alias represents a record which is read only.
I have a form called "Customer Details", on that form i have child forms, including one that has a schedule on.. so far everything seems fine, am able to get it to pull data correctly to the correct fields.. etc
I'm using 1 main table for all of this called "Cases"
Now the problem is, when i i click a button to print (this works so far), it opens another form and then fills in all the textbox's, however this is where i've got the problem, as it always seems to pull the data from the first record, not the record that i'm currently on..
so for example, if in the customer details, someone looks up "joe Blogs" using the navigation search and then wants to print it, by hitting the print button .. it should open another form, fill in the boxs and print "Joe Blogs", however it's always doing "Joe adams" - 1st Record
For entering ordered products there is a combo box for Product_ID which is displaying information about available products, their stock level, and price.
The Row source for Product_ID looks like this:
Code: SELECT DISTINCTROW [qryStock4Orders].[Product_ID], [qryStock4Orders].[Product_name], [qryStock4Orders].[Available_quantity], [qryStock4Orders].[Selling_price] FROM qryStock4Orders ORDER BY [qryStock4Orders].[Product_name];
qryStock4Orders holds the calculated values of stock level (Available_quantity) for each product, grouped by Product_ID and Selling_Price. Selling_Price is from tblX.
Because I can buy one product from different suppliers (for different purchase prices) and purchase prices (so selling prices too) of the same product may vary over time, qryStock4Orders may list more then 1 available Selling_Price for that product, for example:
What I want to achieve is to turn this code placed on After Update event of Product_ID combo box
Code: Dim strFilter As String strFilter = "Product_ID = " & Me!Product_ID Me!Product_Price = DLookup("Selling_Price", "tblX", strFilter)
in something usable, in order to save into tblOrderDetails the selected Selling_Price and not one random Selling_Price from the 3 available above.
As the stock level is updated only after Ordered_Quantity and Product_Price are entered manually, what I'm trying to do with the code above is to automate the data input into Product_Price field of tblOrderDetails.
I have a problem with Microsoft access 2003. I want to design a Check in/Check out Time Data base for my university final term project. In this data base I need to show the total of the working hours of each personnel in a month.( for instance: 124 hours and 55 minutes in one month). But adding up the hours, when the time variable reaches 24 then time automatically goes back to 01:00. As a result, the correct total hours cannot be calculated....
I have reinstalled Access 2010 due to a computer malfunction. I had customized my Dictionary with about 2000 abbreviations for medical specific words: gast for Gastroenterology for instance. Saves tons of typing. I have never been able to save my dictionary just in case something like this happens. And, It's happened before. I may have saved(unsure) once, but it was years ago on Access XP-2003, somewhere in that time frame and was never able to find it if I did. So I am reentering all these words again. It would sure be nice to be able to add them by Anything! but going File/Options/ Proofing/ Auto Correct Options and then entering my shortcuts. that's 4 steps each time. It would seem to me that if you can add the Auto-Correct icon in Word to the Word ribbon, Access should be able to do this. There is no icon i can find in Customize Ribbons/ All Commands. My Word Dictionary does not -never has- synced with Access' Dictionary.
I have two database applications and they are: - the (A) application is for administration use. - the (B) application is for normal users use.
the idea is that: I made the (A) application for administrators who have full control over the database objects (tables, forms, queries, and so on ...).
the (B) application I have created for normal users who will have only to use forms to insert some data and display data only.
but the two applications has a respective table called "vacation request" table. where I linked them, so the both administrators and users can share the data.
The real question is that: How can I prevent the users from seeing the database objects in their application. I used the database options which have helped me in hidding the database objectives when the users open the application, but unfortunately they managed to access to the database objects by pressing the special keys.
I would like to have an access to the (B) application when I want to make some modifications to the forms and then lock it from users where they only have to use the forms for requesting vacations and view the vacations.
i have a form that pulls in a subform specific to the CurrentUser(). It is meant to be a shortcut or favorites form that holds 8 command buttons. I have Dlookups on the form to pull the correct fields from a table for OpenForm or OpenReport and then the name of the form or report they want to open. My froms work but when i try and open a report, it just prints the (correct) report and does not open it. I just want to open it.
Private Sub cmdBtn1_Click() If Me.btn1Action = "OpenForm" Then DoCmd.OpenForm Me.btn1Details, acNormal, , , acFormAdd, acWindowNormal Else If Me.btn1Action = "OpenReport" Then DoCmd.OpenReport Me.btn1Details, acViewNormal, , , acWindowNormal Else End If End If End Sub
In the following code to add an article to a purchase order line table and then open the form on the purchase order in question , I had to open the window "frmPurchase" twice in succession. If I omit the first docmd.openform statement, the form would open at the first record in the table, not the one defined in the where clause "PUOpen and PUCompID = " & Me.lstCompany.
I had noticed previously that, when the form "frmPurchase" was already open, Access went to the correct record, and not if the calling program had to open the window, which is why I came up with the idea of replicating this behavior in the code.
With rstC .FindLast "PULineNB <> 0 AND PuLineHeadingID = " & rstB!PUID If Not .NoMatch Then linenb = rstC!PULineNb Else linenb = 0
[Code] ...
Is this normal behavior, and if not, how can I improve the code?
I am working on a massave aplication that has been running in Access 2000, but recently several of the file sharing users have installed Access 2003 because of the limited availability of Access 2000. All the users are using the same file off the server.
The problem we are having is that when we reference a subform in the "[Forms]![FormName]![SubformName]![FeildName]" Access 2003 does not recognize it and returns an error. I have found that if I will modify it to "[Forms]![FormName]![SubformName].[Form]![FeildName]" it is recognized in both 2000 and 2003.
To try and change every instance of a subform reference will take forever and I am garuteed to overlook something. We reference subforms all over our program, missing any one of them would be a disaster. Before I went to the tedious task of looking through everything I just wanted to throw the situation out there and see if any of you had any great ideas on how to get it fixed efficiently. I would apreciate any ideas.
Using ms access 2010, I created a table called all items contains the ID, item name, item code, item price.
Second table I created called orders, contains item1,Q1=quantity,Tot1=calculated field.
Then a form to fill the orders table with a combo box for Q1 (gets the value from a table called numbers), second combo box for item1 (gets the value item code and item price from the table all items), and a text box to calculate the total of the Q1-item1(item price) All working perfect except the combo box for item1 ends up displaying a different item code that's only if the items were at the same price, for example, I choose latte from the combo box gives me correct item price but the code is cappuccino, only happening with items with the same price.
If I set the property of the combo box Bound Column to 1, I get correct item code but calculation error, Bound Column to 2, I get correct calculations but wrong item code. how to get the combo box to display the correct item code?

I've created a database in access 2003 with the default file format being Access 2000. Everything works fine on my computer and many others, all of whom are running different versions of access (2000, 2002 & 2003).
I have not had any problems with this database until recently and in the last few weeks we have had 2 users, both of them being Access 2000 users who have had the same problem.
The problem they are having is that when they click on any of the switchboard items, the buttons depress an then come back up again when the cursor is moved away, but nothing else happens - no action, no error message - nothing!!! Its the same for all of the buttons on the switchboard.
Does anyone know what is causing this? I have another computer with Access 2000 on it and this works fine, as it does on several other computers runiing Access 2000, I just cannot understand why it is not working on these 2 particular machine.......
