Creating Online Format Of Database
May 25, 2005
I currently have a database on my hd and four other ppl have a copy on theirs. (We are in different physical locations which makes it very slow to put the database on our server).
Currently eveyrone is sending me files that i upload to my copy of the database so i have all of their data.
the obvious setbacks to this is that the data is not live and some of the changes might be missed etc.
i would like to move this and house the tables on my company's intranet
what would i need to do to accomplish this?

I read a lot of threads and some KB articles before this, but am still confused.
Can a copy of the BE database be made on the Server while users are logged on ? Max No. of users is 7.
Does copying a BE while work is going on lead to corruption in the database.
Right now i make a copy of the database thru code and then compress the copy for a backup.

I would like to put my database that I have created online so I can update it from anywhere, and was wondering what are my options - does access have a feature to do this? Or will it involve using dynamic coding to update the tables? I would like to use the forms that I have already created etc ... but is this possible?
I have my own server if this helps?!
thanks

I am developing a very simple little app online that is giving me 2 main areas of trouble. Basically, all this app does is take information from a form and put it into an access db which is located on a web server (it also sends out an email to the admin when the form is submitted, but that is working fine). So there is one page that is the form and it is pointed at a second page that does the insert to the db, sends the email and then displays a Thank You message. I set up a ODBC connection on the web server to the database that seems to be working fine ( I can run a SELECT query against it and get info out of it - I put one dummy record in the db just for testing).
I'm having 2 main problems as follows:
Permissions - the sys admin is hesitant to open up the folder that contains the DB (and nothing else) to allow for write/read control to the anonymous internet user account. Just to test it, he did and I was able to run the query on the page (although I had problems with inserting - see problem 2 below). The sys admin suggested that I "use different credentials" to access this db in this folder and set up a separate user account/password for this purpose on this folder. 2 questions:
1.) how dangerous is it to allow read/write access for the anonymous internet user account?
2. what kind of code (.asp) could I use to access the DB using the separate user account the sys admin set up?
Insert to the DB not working - When I do run this page, it seems to run fine, with seemingly no errors, but when I do a SELECT query against it, none of the data is there. here is the code I am using:
<%
Dim objConn
Set objConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
objConn.ConnectionString = "DSN=RVU_contact_db"
objConn.Mode = 3
objConn.Open
strSQL = "insert into `contacts`(first_name,last_name,email,phone,addres s,city,state,zip,subject,message,department) " _
& "values ('" & request.form("first_name") & "','" & request.form("last_name") & "','" & request.Form("email") & "','" & request.form("phone") & "','" & request.form("address") & "','" & request.Form("city") & "','" & request.form("state") & "','" & request.form("zip") & "','" & request.Form("subject") & "','" & request.form("message") & "','" & request.form("department") & "')"
objConn.execute strSQL
objConn.Close
%>
I notice that there is a .ldb that seems to stay open in that folder, even when I do a objConn.Close, and I don't seem to be able to delete this off the server.
Any ideas on how to solve these problems? Any help on any of the above greatly appreciated.
Sincerely
johnmr

I’ve recently added form functionality on my website, which runs with the aid of a perl script and sends the results via an email message.
I’m currently able to import, or link, data from a specific mail folder (Outlook 2002) to an MS Access database (Access 2002). However, my problem is the message body, which contains the data I’m interested in, is all placed in the one field.
I would like the data contained in the message body to be imported into separate fields but I have not been able to figure out how this is done.
I can arrange the data within the email message body to conform to a particular format if needed, even HTML, but I can't work out how to import the data into separate fields.
Tried searching this forum but couldn’t find the answers. Perhaps there is a better way of processing online forms, one which I’m not aware of.
My web service does support mySQL and also has ODBC dirvers for Access but this to me seems like an over kill approach particularly since I don't need access to data from the website (active pages)
Can anyone help?
Thanks.

Where does one start to look for information on what is needed to set up an online web form that can write to an Access database? I'd like to learn how I could possibly set up an online registration form for clients to use via a web page. I don't really know where to start, but I have seen some information on asp.net stuff. What's the easiest path?

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?

I need to create an incrementing number to be used as a primary key in a table, based on a few variables. The format will be YYMM0000. It represents the number of units received each month.
I can come up with the formula to create that string no problem, but I need to create some code to check the table MAIN for the field TRACKER_ID to find the last number and increment it by 1.
Can anyone help? :confused:

I have browsed a few forums and am still having trouble creating a pie chart that has the proper layout that I would prefer.
I have created a query that will list the data I would like to organize into a pie chart. The query, when run, will prompt the user for a start date and an end date and then display the data in this form:
EmployeeX | SumofProject hours | SumofDemo Hours | SumofAdministration hours | SumofEtc hours (5 other categories of hours)
EmployeeY | SumofProject hours | SumofDemo Hours | SumofAdministration hours | SumofEtc hours (5 other categories of hours)
OK, now that I have the data in this format I would like to create a report that includes tabs for each employee, each tab will have a pie chart that has one employee and a pie chart showing how their hours are allocated to each task. e.g. tab 1 would have Employee X and the pie chart would show what percentage of this employee's hours was dedicated to project/demo/admin/etc...

I have a need to convert the export of an Access report to an ASCII file.
The export needs to have a specific format - described below:
Field Position | Field Length | Field Name | Field format
1-6 | 6 | Member # | text - right justified
7-12 | 6 | Trans Date | YYMMDD
13-15 | 3 | Pay code | Alpha/ NUM - Left
16-26 | 11 | Amount | -9999999.99 (*)
64-71 | 8 | Check # | Right
general comments and questions:
This report needs to interface with some sort of transaction accounting system - No Idea what it is, but this format of the report will interface.
The field positions go from 1 to 73. I need only supply the data above, so the check # is way out of sequence. Do I need to have the space inbetween "Amount" and Check Number in the report? Will a simple text file work with all the fieds together? or will I need the space in there? Is there a way to design a report in an ASCII format in access?
Specific Questions
I think I need to change the format of the amount and date fields. I am currently using the short date format 8/30/04, but need to return the date as YYMMDD - 040830. How can I change this format to reflect the ASCII format. The form is also set with the default "=Date()" so the user doesn't have to enter the date everytime - it can also be edited for older data. I would like the date to appear the way it is on the form 08/30/04 but get entered to the table as 040830. Is there a way to do that?
The amount field is odd - I'll include the exact criteria that is desired:
"All Amount Fields must be right justified and space filled. If the amount is a credit, show the "-" sign at the beginning of the number. Payment should be entered as positive amounts. If zero, assign the fied as 0.00 (space filled)"
Is this just a mask that needs to be added? Currently, The field shows $7.00 when 7 is entered to add cent, you must type in 7.50, tab will put in the "$". I need to get rid of the $ and space fill the field?
Any help would be great

I inherited a big project at work that is Access 2010 using SQL server 2008 R2. I purchased Access 2010 for my home computer so I could work on the program at home. The problem is that the program won't start because Access can't open the database. I think its SQL format? I don't quite understand what the SQL server is...Is there a way to get this database compatible so I can work on my home computer.

Greetings,
I have created a database to track applicants’ eligibility process. Mainly, a Head of Household will call or apply in person for a medical assistance for self or for child #1, child #2 etc. I created two tables tblHeadHouseHold and tblApplicants with a (one-to-many relationships) and, a main form (frmHeadHouseHold) and a subfrom (sfrmApplicants). So far, the database works fine and just recently, I was approached first, to make this database available online, so that applicants can go to a given center (clinic) to fill in the application, and we then pull the application from the office. Second, to add a new field (source of Application) where applicants learn about our program (Friend, School, Doctor, Advertisement, other) to create a ‘Source Report’, how many from friend, how many from school, from Advertisement etc.
I’m using access 2003 and would like to know:
1. What I need to make the existing db available online
2. Given the type of report I need to generate for ‘Source of Application’ shall I use check box, drop downs,
or a lookup table?
Thank you in advance,
OCM

Hi
Happy new year everyone,
I have designed a Access 2000 report which is getting data from a query. However when I run the report is asking to enter a parameter value which is Format$. Running simple the query is all fine but when running the report asks for this parameter and it seems that in does not like my formatting to display dollares values. I have in expression builder the following:
=Format$([Due_Date2],"mmmm yyyy",0,0)
My report is grouped on Dates formatted as month and year but all seems fine.
Does anyone know why is that or had a similar issue?
Thanks
