DSNless Connection Causing Error....

Dec 15, 2005

I am forced to switch from a DSN connection to my database to a DSNless connection by my hosting company. I changed my connection string from this:

strConn = "dsnname"
set MyConn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
MyConn.Open strConn

to the following:

set MyConn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
MyConn.Open = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=d:pathtodatabasemydb.mdb;"

I connect fine. But when I run a certain query, I get the following error:

Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e14'

The SELECT statement includes a reserved word or an argument name that is misspelled or missing, or the punctuation is incorrect.

The SQL statement in question here is:
SELECT MAX(week) AS LAST FROM Schedule WHERE Result <>''

If I change my connection back to the original DSN connection, everything is fine once again.

How would a different connection produce an error, and more importantly, how do I fix it?


Thanks,
Ted

Pass-through Query Causing An Error

Jan 4, 2006

I have a VERY simple select statement that I am using in a pass-through query: "SELECT * FROM dbo_vReturn;", but I cannot get this to work. Each time I run the query it generates an error: "ODBC call failed - Invalid object name "dbo_vReturn" (#208)".

The dbo_vRteturn is a view in the backend. I can open this table/view from Access using an ODBC connection but when I try to run the pass-through query it falls over!

Does anyone have any idea what is causing this?:confused:

Trim Text Box Causing Error?

Jul 6, 2006

Hi all, this is my first post, I'll try and make it a good one :-)

System:
Windows 2000
Office 2000

I have a small network of PC's here which have access to our central database. I have a simple form created using the label wizard which is used to print address labels for mailing lists.
On most of the PC's here it works fine but on one or two (which have no obvious difference in thier setup) I get an "ODBC--Call Failed" error and it won't run the report????
I have puzzled over this for a while when I decided that I would remove the Trim function from the lines of the address fields on the label, these are put in automatically by the label wizard. This stopped the error message and the reports now run.
I don't know why this is happening but I am hoping someone will.

Thanks,

Matt.

Modules & VBA :: Assigning Value To Variable Causing Error

Jul 19, 2013

Is the following possible? If so - how?

I have a series of several hundred variables being assigned values.

If the value assigned to the variable results in an error, I would like to assign a default value to the variable which caused the error.

How do I reference the variable, or line (or any info I can work with), which caused the error?

Intermittent Generic Error Messages Causing A Major Inconvenience

May 26, 2006

Hi,

I am absolutely puzzeled with a problem we are having with an Ms Access 2000 application, which is the front end to a SQL Server database. We have a database which was working fine for over 6 months. And now all of sudden users are intermittently getting the error messages:

"Error Executing this command"
AND
"You cancelled the previous operation."

I removed the error handling code from the application to get more detailed error messages and we got the following error message:


The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: .

The expression may not result in the name of a macro, the name of a user-defined function, or [Event Procedure].

There may have been an error evaluating the function, event, or macro.


This is only intermittent and when they close the database and open it again it works fine for a little while and then the error occurs again. As you can imagine this is a major inconvenience for users.

I have searched the web and forums and there just seems to be 101 reasons why this could happen. Nothing has changed on our system which might cause this occur so I don't know why this is happening.

Could anybody provide any ideas on how I might go about trouble shooting it. We are thinking of opening a support call with Microsoft but the error messages are so generic that I'm not sure what help they could be.

Any help / ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks

Criteria For Date Field Causing 'data Type Mismatch' Error

Jul 31, 2005

Hi,

I have a query with a field defined in the query as follows:

Next Bill Date:
IIf(IsNull([dtmLastBillDate]),
DateSerial(Year([dtmDateRecd]),Month([dtmDateRecd])+1,15),
DateSerial(Year([dtmLastBillDate]),Month([dtmLastBillDate])+[lngNumMonths],15))

I can't seem to set any criteria for this field without getting an error:
'Data Type Mismatch in Criteria Expression'

Examples of criteria that I've tried:
=#1/1/2005#
>#1/1/2005#
=Date()
Year([Next Bill Date]) = Year(Now())

All of the above generate that same error.
{I've seen many pages/posts regarding 'data type mismatch' but none seem to relate directly to this situation.}

I could use some help, fast!

Thanks in advance,
David

Modules & VBA :: Send Meeting To Outlook - Address Item Line Causing Error

I'm trying to have a command button send info on the form straight to Outlook as a meeting. So far, the code below works apart from the address bit. I need the code to automatically add the same 2 email addresses as recepients everytime.

Modules & VBA :: Connection Cannot Be Used - Error On Production But Not Development

Jul 24, 2013

old Access database that's been upgraded through to Access 2000 or 2003 (probably 2000), but not beyond. Was rebuilt in Access 2003 format around 2006/2007 (by someone else who no longer works here). Being used now in Access 2007 and 2010. Uses DSN to connect to SQL Server backend. Last week it was SQL Server 2005, moved the back end on Saturday to SQL Server 2012. Changed the DSN when moving to the new server. But I don't think this has to do with the DSN (it's getting data just fine).

There's a data entry form. User enters a Generator ID, event triggers it to look for the details for the generator and load them into a generator subform. After it loads the information into the subform, and before the user does anything else, it throws "This connection cannot be used to perform this operation. It is either closed or invalid in this context."It triggers post update of the Generator ID:

Code:

Private Sub txtGeneratorID_AfterUpdate()
On Error GoTo Handle_err
Me.txtGeneratorID = UCase(Me.txtGeneratorID)
Call FillHandlerSubform(Me.subGeneratorInfo, Me.txtGeneratorID.Value)
If GetGenStat(Me.txtGeneratorID.Value) = "N" Or GetGenStat(Me.txtGeneratorID.Value) = "OB" Then
MsgBox "Warning Generator Status! " & UCase(Me.txtGeneratorID.Value) & vbCrLf & _
"This Generator has a status of N or OB!", vbCritical, "Bad Generator Status!"
Cancel = True
End If

[code]....

It doesn't throw this error in the development copy of the database, dev copy works just fine. It only throws it from the production version. They are located on the same network, just in different folders. They are pointing to the same database on the same SQL Server using a DSN file located inside the folder where the .mdb file is located (this is a change in the front end, prior to this it was using a DSN on each individual machine, but I changed it to stop that).

I think the damage to my database is not recoverable, but i'm still hoping.
My computer crashed when I was working on my dtabase and after restart the db is not working anymore :( If I try to do something, anything (!!!) all I got is an error message: "Error accessing file. Network connection may have been lost." But the db is on my computer, I don't use it over the network.
What can I do to make it working again?
Thanx!

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

Please Help!! "Error Accessing File. Network Connection May Have Been Lost"

Oct 12, 2007

Hi all,

I have been developing Access 2K applications. Lately, every time I click a command button on a form or even open the code window for a form, I got this repetitive error message. I even create BLANK Access db and re-import all objects or create brand new form and copy the control designs/code from the error one to the new one. The new db or the new form still have the same ERROR, which is as follow :

"The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Error accessing file. Network connection may have been lost.
*The expression may not result in the name of a macro, the name of a user-defined function, or [Event Procedure].
*There may have been an error evaluation the function, event, or macro."

Please help! Thanks so much for your suggestions/
Have a great weekend,

Causing A Headache

Sep 28, 2006

I have a main form [mainform] with several subforms on it, two of which are on a tab.

On the second tab [page79] there is a subform [subformlist] which has like 25 checkboxes on it, any combonation of which can be picked by the user.

I need there to be at least one pick required of this subform, else the record won't show in a general query I have, since the table the subform is based on is linked to the record.

Is there anyway to make making a choice of one of at least one of these checkboxes checked a manditory thing before the user can close or move on to the next record?

I've tried making an "Other" box that on the Table has a default value of "True" which I thought would cause it to show in the query record...to no avail.

The only true way to make this work is to have it mandatory that the user pick from AT LEAST one, usually more before the record is complete.

Any help? Other than writing a MASSIVE If...Then statement...?

Or is there a way to make it so the choice isn't required for the record to show up in the query?

I'd post...but my db is too massive, even zipped.
:(

Coding Causing Confusion - To Me

Apr 20, 2006

Yesterday I posted a question and rec'd good advice but as usual I don't think I explained myself very well.
As the attached picture of my Form shows, I have a checkbox for each Age Group under each Team. I originally had a query that would come up for each Team's particular Age Group and then the required data copuld be input. This leads to too many querys clogging things up. I tried to copy the SQL code of one of the query's to the On_Click event of the checkbox but as I have been informed SQL is different to VB.
All I would like to know is how to convert the SQL to VB coding so that I can continue to do the coding for each Checkbox.
The SQL code for the first checkbox is:

SELECT tblPlayerRegister.Surname, tblPlayerRegister.[First Name], tblPlayerRegister.Age, tblPlayerRegister.[D'n], tblPlayerRegister.G1, tblPlayerRegister.SP, tblPlayerRegister.Age2, tblPlayerRegister.G1A
FROM tblPlayerRegister
WHERE (((tblPlayerRegister.Age)<11) AND ((tblPlayerRegister.Club)="Beaconsfield"))
ORDER BY tblPlayerRegister.Surname, tblPlayerRegister.[First Name];

If there is an easier way, by all means let me know.
Any assistance would be greatfully appreciated.

An Apostrophe Is Causing Problems While Inserting!

Mar 24, 2008

Hi,

In my database if the user wants to change a record, I make them store the old record in another table. I am using the following code.


Private Sub cmdArchive_Click()

On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
Dim conn As ADODB.Connection
Dim i As Integer
Dim s As String
Dim sSQL As String

sSQL = "INSERT INTO tblNamesArchive ( txtGivenName, txtSurname )" _
& "VALUES ( '" & txtGivenName & "', '" & txtSurname & "');"

Debug.Print sSQL
Set conn = CurrentProject.Connection
conn.Execute sSQL
GoTo ThatsIt
ErrorHandler:
Select Case Err.Number
Case -2147217908 'command text not set
Case -2147217865 'cannot find table
Case 3021 'no records
Case Else
MsgBox "Problem with cmdArchive_Click()" & vbCrLf _
& "Error " & Err.Number & ": " & Err.Description
End Select
ThatsIt:
conn.Close

End Sub


I have no problems making the following code work except if there is an apostrophe " ' " in either the txtGivenName or txtSurname . For example O'Keefe it shows an error but not O"Keefe! How do I fix this?


Thanks

Date Format Causing Problem

Aug 4, 2005

I have got the following query but when it actually inserts the date, the dates will be "08/01/2005". Month and day will be swapped if date is less than 12. I don't know it's happening. It's driving me crazy.

INSERT INTO P_Timesheet ( WeekNo, StaffID, StartTime, FinishTime, TotalHours, ADate, StaffActivityID, DateFilled, NotesByStaff )
VALUES (0, 'S24', #10:00:00 AM#, #11:00:00 AM#, 1, #1/08/2005#, 158, #21/08/2005#, '');

It will insert "8/01/2005" for the first date and "21/08/2005" for the second date. my date format is set to australia and i have set the same in my asp page as well. it is giving the same result even if i try direct from the query.

Compact And Repair Causing, Not Solving, Problems!

May 10, 2007

I have a large application in Access 2003 which comprises a main program file and 4 linked data files which between them contain around 50 tables. The prog file sees the data files through linked tables. Everything works well until I do a compact and repair on the data files then unpredictable problems arise. The compaction is only ever done when all users are off the system and one file at a time. Having done a compaction this week I found that one of the tables appeared corrupt when I browsed it via the program file (the table comes from one of the files which contains other tables working OK after the compaction). The data was garbled and what could be recognised was not in the right place - appears to be moved a couple of columns out of place. There were some fields which reported errors also. However when I browse the table in its native file it is perfectly OK. I can solve the problem by re-running the Linked Table Manager in the program file but that is hard work for 50 tables! This has happened previously when I compacted and I would be better understanding the problem than just fixing it! Can anyone help please?
