Database Complete Time To Distribute
Jul 27, 2007
Hello,
I have finally completed my database project. It is a split database. Back End on a network server.
I want to distribute the front end to all users however I want to limit to the best I can what they can do to it. Can someone please advise me on the best way to wrap up and send out my front ends?
All security has been established. I am talking about the availability to see the tables, macros, control bars etc..
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I created the database on my computer. I added security and split the database to put the tables on the the server. Everything works just fine on my computer. However, when I try to copy the 3 files for the front end of the database to other computers on the network, it won't work.
Perhaps I'm confused as to what files need to be migrated to each additional computer or I don't have the security setup properly.
Right now, I move 3 files. The main database file with the front end. The shortcut file that is created when you add security and the security file that is created when you add security to the database.
I'm stumped.

I've created and tested my database. What step or steps do I take now to make it so it's a program that only shows the forms and menu's I created, not all the Tables, Queries etc and the formatting options? Is there a link that explains what to do step by step?

I have developed a db (A2K) which will be distibuted through our companies franchising system to various licensees. These licensees generally operate in a single PC environment but occasionally they will be based on a server network. The single user is fine but I am stumped by the server situation as it impacts on the various links I have set up within the database to files etc that are part of the program but are external such as Excel, Word files. The current links are all set up as C:MainFolderNameFilename. Of course these all stop working when I place it on a server and link the users up via shortcuts. On our own installation I changed the links to the \MyServerMainFolderNameFilename format and everythings fine but due to the number of links this is a fairly lengthy process and I wouldn't want to have to repeat it at every clients installation.
Can any one please advise me if there is a way to set it up so that I could say enter the clients server name in a field. Then insert that field's contents into the pathway details for the links so that they all update automatically.
Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

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!

Hi,
I want to distribute an Access database to users, some of whom may not have Access installed on their computers.
The database has been developed using Access 2003 and I was wondering how I can distribute the database as a runtime version to my users.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Harmonic

I have a Query with many part numbers in column A and their inventory location(s) listed in column B. However, some part numbers are listed 2 or 3 times because the item is located in multiple inventory locations. How can I take these items and put list their inventory locations in multiple columns across one row?
What I have:
ITEM# Quantity INVENTORYLOCATION
A1 5 Warehouse 1
A2 3 Warehouse 1
A2 6 Warehouse 2
A3 2 Warehouse 1
What I want:
ITEM# INVENTORYLOCATION Quantity 1 INVENTORYLOCATION 2 Quantity 2
A1 Warehouse 1 5
A2 Warehouse 1 3 Warehouse 2 6
A3 Warehouse 1 2

All -
I have just about finished up a Split DB that I plan on deploying in a LAN environment. The goal of course is to turn what looks like an Access Application now into a non-access looking application where the Front End can be distributed and run on any computer within the LAN.
I have several questions that I may need some help on.
How does one go about hiding the Access Shell and/or Ribbon/Nav in 2007?
How would I add a form that allows for a user to navigate to and connect to the back-end without having them check all of the appropiate tables and then browse to the back-end file if they have a different drive letter mapped to the location of the back-end files for example?
Any tips on how to sign the DB so the pesky Trust Center question can be bypassed?
Any other tips on how to simply distribute this for a LAN environment and/or make it look NOT like an Access DB with access to view the Forms, Tables, Queries, etc. This is my first Access DB project, let alone a LAN distributable one.
Thanks!

i want to display a single field values in list box with query as row source.the query will produce variable number of records or rows. sometime 1, sometimes 3 or 6 my thought is to distribute these records/row into list box column. for example:
if query = 1 then listbox column = 1
if query = 6 then listbox column = 3 (two rows per column).

I have a list that shows how many books we have for each PO No. (Sorted by PO No.) Like below:
LIST 1:
Code:
PO NoTOTAL BOOKS
PO-0001 12
PO-0002 15
PO-0003 26
Now I would like to distribute/divide these different books to boxes and each box gets maximum 10 books. Like below list:
LIST 2:
Code:
BOX NOBOOKSPO NO
0001 BOOK 1~10 PO-0001
0002 BOOK 11~12 PO-0001
0002 BOOK 1~8 PO-0002
0003 BOOK 9~15 PO-0002
0003 BOOK 1~3 PO-0003
0004 BOOK 4~13 PO-0003
0005 BOOK 14~23 PO-0003
Format is not important in the list2, for example in Box 0002 we have book 11~12 means (book 11 of 12 +book 12 of 12) in po-0001
+ book 1 of 15 until book 8 of 15) in po-0002
books have bookno, for example for po-0001 we have 12 different books it means we have bookno (1 of 12) until (12 of 12) for this po no.
How I can produce automatically list 2 from list 1 by query or coding.

I have multiple databases (Front-end, Back-end, Import, Reporting) which enables auditors in our company to audit loans.
I use an Import database which imports a random sample of loans (10%) into the Back End database for audit. I import a spreadsheet of loans (let's say 5000 loans) into the Import database, and I have the query return 10% of the loans, which is then imported into our Back-end database for audit (500 loans for audit).
Currently the auditors look at the daily list of loans (the 500 imported loans) and divide the work amongst themselves (5 auditors will audit 100 loans each.) They decide Bob will do 1-100; Joe will do 101-200; Bill will do 201-300; etc.
Is there a way using a query to assign these loans to specific auditors when importing the loans into the BE for audit? I would need to enter how many auditors will be working the loans so the work is divided evenly, and then enter the auditor's initials. (Since the auditors perform different audits, I would like the ability to select or key in auditor initials when importing the loans..

Looking for efficient table structure for this. Let's say I have a list of contractors who will get paid a certain amount of money each week. The amount of money changes each week by measuring the amount of work done, giving it a price and calculating it. The fields are these:
[pk]WeeklyWorkID
WorkID
Quantity
UnitPrice
Total=Qty*UnitPrice (not stored in this table)
EmployeeID
WeekID
So far, it's all good, but we wish to pay the contractors in an unusual way. Let's say he makes $16,000 of work this week, and we want to pay him using cash AND/OR either one or multiple debit cards. For example:
Cash: $1,500
Debit card 45: $7,500
Debit card 71: $4,000
Debit card 13: $3,000
Total = $ 16,000
We can only deposit $7,500 max in each card. But it's even worse... two or more contractors can SHARE the card and it's not always the same card. Sounds pretty funky, but it's what the company wants to do. So, what would you recommend me in this case?
I'm guessing I'm gonna need these tables: tbWeeks to hold the week number, tbCards to store the cards' info, and an extra table to make a many to many relationship between the cards and the employees.

Greetings to all, :)
i have a database with a few tables, but i need a special one that stores initial date and final date for a particular ID, but like this... :confused:
The table has the folowing fields; ID,STAGE,INITIALDATE,FINALDATE
New record:
ID1 - STAGE - INITIAL DATE - FINALDATE( leave blank )
New record:
ID2 - STAGE - INITIAL DATE - FINALDATE( leave blank )
When ID1 is repeated it must detect the blank field ( FINALDATE) , fill with the now date ( to finalize the record ) and also add a new record ( ID1 - STAGE - INITIALDATE - FINALDATE ( leave blank again ).
It also can have other records of other IDs in between.
I think i need a VBA code to detect the last record for ID#, detect FINALDATE field, write the date on it, save, and add a new record again.
Can this be done? :rolleyes:
Many thanks in advance

I'm using cascading combo boxes with sql in each subsequent combo similar to:
SELECT DISTINCT [incidentnavigation].[type] FROM incidentnavigation WHERE [incidentnavigation].[involved]=cboincidentinvolved And [incidentnavigation].[person]=cbowho ORDER BY [Type];
If the result of the query is one line, i.e. click arrow and there's only one choice, can I get access to auto-fill in the box?
I tried an excel kind of if(count(query=1) then etc and it doesn't like it.

I have a table called customers and subtables are linked to this table. for example contacts, etc..;
I would like to make a search form where i have criteria fields like street, id code, customername, customername, etc....
I would like to have one Search button so when I enter criteria like the name or the street I just have to click one button. And I would like to have 1 reset button to delete the criteria in the fields so I do not need to clear each time all fields.
also I would like to see in that screen a subform where i can see the found criteria so I can click one button to open customer details.
can someone help me on that issue or does someone have such a form allready?
