Hey guys,
I have just upgraded to office 2007 and was wondering if it was possible to make my access database into a stand alone application so users cannot edit it?
I would very much appreciate any help
thanks
Using the MDE-menu function in MS Access it returns an error. MS Access is not able to make a MDE-file of my database. I prefer to make a runtime of my database, but surfing the internet I can not find a way to do this. Can you give me directions for this?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi guys,
I was given a task to make an application that will enter/monitor job assignments of our technical staff on a daily basis (roughly 15-30 assignment per day), so I created a table which has all the fields and it worked well.
So after the dressing up the database, I split the table and saved it on our server, copied a FE on workstations but the data is not refreshing the way it supposed to be, what I want is whenever a user accessed the application data will be refreshed on diff. workstation in real time.
Can someone point a link on the forum regarding my problem or can someone help me to solved this problem from ground up?
Thanks in advance.

Hello all
I got a chance to make some extra money outside of my usual job.
I am creating a billing system for a plumbing business. It's pretty easy and shouldn't take me long to do. The only thing is I'm not sure what to charge.
Anybody have any idea?
Thanks in advance

View 2 Replies View RelatedI read in the book (Access 2013 inside out), one of the way to distributing access database is creating an application shortcut.
Now i have an Access 2013 file on my computer (with office 2013 and windows 7) other users have office 2007 and windows (XP) on their computers. now i want to give a copy of this file to other users without save as that to 2007.
I would like to know how i can do that with creating an application shortcut , if it is possible because in the book I could not find the way if there is?
I've made a few databases in the past for an engineering test facility with some (limited) success. Recently we purchased a time sheet program that works as a stand alone program, but uses Microsoft Access to operate. Everything is table driven and there are filters and all the good stuff from Access, but it's a seperate program - I don't have to open Access to run this program. This would be great if I could make database programs that could run on their own, so to speak. Any chance one of you could point me in the right direction on how to learn to do that kind of thing? Do you need stand-alone Visual Basic or can I make the program within the limitations of Access? I have both so it doesn't really matter, but outisde of VBA within Office products, I'm a programming noob. Thanks in advance.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello. I have tried using the search function on the board but I cannot find an answer.
Is it possible to create an executable program to run the database?
I would like to have a computer that does not have Access installed, to be able to load and run the user interface that allows them to manipulate the database, as well as write to it. It doesn't matter if the tables are encrypted or not.
Thanks for your time.
EDIT: It appears that after writing this post, I realized I hadn't used the search term "executable." I found an answer here (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showpost.php?p=586646&postcount=2).

How can I turn my DB into an Executable file, or "stand alone"...Id like to have the end users when opening the DB see only the forms and reports without the Access Background.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an application that is used by individual teachers to generate reports for central admin. It is not secured except I have locked out access to all objects, Navigation pane is hidden, etc to protect the integrity of the tool. I must also maintain this as changes are propagated. I am trying to find a way to upgrade forms, functions, queries, etc without manually having to unlock and relock every db for each school site when changes are required. I have tried importing and exporting from a master db, turning objects on and off by recognizing my password, splitting code and data (db's are on flash drives and path changes every time they are inserted, many teachers cannot handle refreshing table links), I have tried writing code to import the changes at next startup, etc. It is written on Access 2003.

View 4 Replies View RelatedWe 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!!!!
I am creating a database for creating quotations. The quotation number is generated using the date, for example the first quote today would be quote number "05202015-1" because it is the first one today. The next quote today would be quote number "05202015-2" and so on. Is there a way to make access automatically generate these quote numbers based on the date?
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen 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,

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

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!

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
