Database Split - Disk Error
Nov 8, 2005
Since splitting my database into a front & back end - when I attempt to run the front end part from a client PC logging in as one of the users/groups defined I get : 'Disk or Network Error' and the DB fails to open.
If I log in using the same username/group bypassing the config/startup options - I do see the Access Design view main window - but then if I attempt to open (not all) most of the forms in Form View - I again get the same 'Disk or Network Error' message each time.
Yet, if I log in as the administrator from the same workstation - no message appears?
Any ideas please? :confused:

OS = XP pro SP2
200GB IDE HD with 134GB free (NTFS)
200GB USB2.0 with 54GB Free (NTFS)
Virtual Memory = 1gb (Let Windows Manage)
Trying to copy files from a external USB drive to the Hard drive.
I have done this a million times and now it decides to foul up. When trying to copy files from the external drive to the hard drive that are 4GB or higher I get an error "Not Enough Disk Space"
Both Drives are NTFS with Plenty of free space. Also get the same error when creating files larger than 4GB. It worked before and no OS changes have been made that I know of.

Hi
I have my Access database on a network and every once in a while (at least once a day), Access stalls and says disk or network error
We moved the database on a better server and for whatever reason, it stalls way more often, like ten times a day! I have to think that this new server is lacking in something
But the whole point, is it supposed to do that? There's about 10 users using my database, but rarely more than 2-3 at a time
Can I do something on my database to prevent this? I'm using those lines in my code
dim mycn as adodb.connection
set mycn=currentproject.connection
I don't close the connection with mycn.close every time, could it have something to do with it? Is there something that's always running in the background which could cause this?
I'm clueless cause I've created a dummy database and placed it on the network, and I'm the only one on it, and it will still say disk or network error. Is there somehting fundamentally wrong with my DB?

I've been searching on the net to know what exactly does the error message "3026 - Not enough space on disk" mean when it pops up not allowing me to open my access file. Please offer your help. (This message pops up at many other cases... e.g. when saving a file - but i don't know what's the problem in this case)

I have checked the server size and local harddisk. There are also contain enough space to use. (My Access just 6MB only) Is there any user face this and solve before?
I have tried to search in google, nothing can be found. Please help!!!

Everything we peachy-keen with my database until I split it and I get the following error:
"The expression On Menu you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: User-defined type not defined."
Please help as I'm not sure how to proceed. Here are some facts:
1. I'm a noobie with Access. I've been clever and resourceful enough to figure out most answers to my questions, but searching for this one have turned up bare.
2. There was a single custom Toolbox present before splitting the database. On the Import, though, I used the option to import toolboxes/menuboxes (checkmark at the bottom on the Import page).
3. I've checked for missing/broken References, there are none being reported.
4. The 'On Menu' event exists nowhere to my knowledge! Where can I find it and hopefully troubleshoot the problem?
Your imput welcome, I'm defeated for now, but am continuing the search for an answer. Please help ;)

Hello. I just split my Access 2000 database and receive the following Run-time error (#3251): Current provider does not support the necessary interface for Index functionality. This error occurs on the following line of code: tablename.Index = "PrimaryKey"
Does anyone know why this occured after I split the database and what exactly it means?
Thanks in advance.

:confused: I have read a quite a few threads on spiting the database. My database is 50 Meg and running very slow. I have compacted and repair, still the same. This just happen all of sudden. Could that be possible?. What should I look out before I try to spit it?. It’s given that I will make a backup. I am running Access 2003. I have over 150 users.

I am almost at the finishing line with a great deal of help from here.
I have now normalised the tables, built complicated queries, forms, reports, all from scratch as I knew absolutely nothing before I started with Access three months ago.
I have compacted and repaired the database using the wizard, and also complied the code and analyzed all tables, forms, queries, and reports and relationships.
The final step is to make it an MDE file so that it can go on the local network at work (not on the internet).
My questions are these;
Do I need to split the database into front and back ends?
If I save a copy of the original MDB file and then make it a MDE file would that not suffice in making it run more efficiently?
Can a split MDB database be made into an MDE database?
Any advice, as always, is most welcome.

I have a database that resides on a file server share. I have split the database to create a backend. I then posted a shortcut of the front end to the desktops of two users who have access to the share. I then tried to access the front end from the two machines simultaneously. It opened on the first PC but not the second? When I viewed the server share it had a 'padlock' icon?
Where am I going wrong? This is the first time I have attempted this scenario!!
Thanks in advance,
Phil

Hello,
Should splitting only be done when all tables,queries,forms,reports, etc. are done. Or can it be done anytime. I am almost to that stage but didnt want to jump the gun and run into problems later on.
Thanks.
I will have about 20 users sharing this.

I was having a discussion with Rickster57 concerning my newly developed database, and he recommended that I split it so that it has a front end and a back end. Rick listed a number of very good reasons for doing this (so I will definitely do it). But I wanted to pose the question so I could get some of the reasons the more seasoned Access programmers have for creating a front and back end to their programs.

I recently split my database and also used Bob Larson's Autoupdating tool. Everything appeared to be working fine until a few users were unable to access the db. I later found out that because they are at a different site, they don't map to the server that houses the database BE. However, even if they manually map to the correct server, they are unable to bring up the db Form. They get an error stating the BE "...is not a valid path". My questions are:
1) If I were to copy all the files (the Master FE, BE, and MDE) to a public folder that ALL users have access to, will everyone be able to bring up the database Form?
2) How would this affect what was already set up when I ran Bob Larson's utility (or even the splitting and MDE creation)?
3) Is there a way to "Undo" what was previously "Done" to this database (ie: Splitting, Larson Utility, MDE creation) in order to correct the issue, or do I need to start from scratch and split the database while it's on a Public drive.
I hope this makes sense. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi!
I just want to know that " How to split the Access database in Front End and Back End application"? I am creating a database that i want to store on server and simultaneously want to give access to 20 terminals (cleints) to access the database.
Secondly, I have to provide a field in a form "Document number". However as per the requirement user can enter "PIR No", "Serial No" or at times both as document number. Both the things "PIR No" and "Serial No" have different format types like "PIR No 001" and "Srl No001".
On basis of document number later i have to give the option to search the particular document. Please guide me how to provide the option to enter the field values.
Appreciate any help on above.
Regards,
Nick

Not an expert developer but have been distributing a database based on ADT for Access 95 .
Clients machines with 1GB of memory has forced me to move to Developer for Access 2000 .
One customer in France when trying to load is getting the message :
VISUAL BASIC 6.0 SETUP TOOLKIT
Office Systems Pack cant be installed as the languages are not the same.Install the Office system pack for the appropriate language,
What do I do?
How can I still use ADT for Access 95 (with which I've had no problems) on 1GB machines without getting the "Out of Memory" glitch?

I am combining 12 Databases. I have split all 12 between the server and the desktop. My question is “Should I combing all of the data table on the server into one database or should I leave all of the individual application data tables in separate Databases on the server”. Additionally, is there a limit to the number of tables an Access DB can handle? My inclination is to keep the functionality separated but the problem I have is that some of the functionality within the applications overlap. Recommendations!

'ello all,
The moment of truth finally came and I split my database FE/BE for testing only the truth was a bit sour.
Background:
I have several forms in my database that have a common series of buttons at the top which open their corresponding form. Before the split, everything was fine - you can click on the button and the desired form would open. After the split, I'm getting the error message:
"Microsoft Office Access couldn't find the toolbar 'EVM Database Menu'."
This is referencing a toolbar that I used during development to help jump to forms.
I tried removing the toolbar from each form (Tools > Customize > Toolbars > unchecked the custom toolbar), and re-split the database FE/BE ends, but to no avail..
So, I checked the event codes to be sure I didn't program something wrong. There are 9 buttons total to open forms, 7 of them give this problem, the remaining 2 do not. The code for the problematic and non-problematic ones are identical!
Example - Non-Working (error message re: Custom Toolbar):
-----------------------------------------------------------
Private Sub cmdActuals_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdActuals_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "frmDataActuals"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
Exit_cmdActuals_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_cmdActuals_Click:
MsgBox err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdActuals_Click
End Sub
Example - Working (no error message):
-----------------------------------------------------------
Private Sub cmdPerfProj_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdPerfProj_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "frmPerfProj"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
Exit_cmdPerfProj_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_cmdPerfProj_Click:
MsgBox err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdPerfProj_Click
End Sub
Questions:
So..this has nothing to do with code, it must be a problem in the linking somehow, right? A bug possibly? What else could be causing this? More importantly, is there a solution to my predicament that anyone could help out with? Searches so far have returned no help either from forums (including here), MS site (no Q-articles), and VBA Help. I'll continue searching though.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi,
as an attempt to improve database performance, I have split a MS Access 2003 database. I have successfully split the database and saved the backend onto the server. My question is, where is the front end. or do I have to create it?
Cheers.

I have a database that I've created for someone else to use. It's split into a front and back end. The user will be placing the front end on her desktop PC and the back end on a network server.
She also will be taking the database home to use from time to time. My problem is that when the database is split, upon opening, it looks for the back end on the network drive, which is unavailable when she's away from the office.
Is there a way to tell the Access to look in a directory relative to the one it's in?

I have a call tracking database with 5 active users. Ocasionally the database will freeze, usually for several people at once. It will say:
"Can not update record; Currently Locked"
The only way to fix it is to close and re-open. I split the database, compiled it and then created an MDE file to distribute. They are using copies of the front-end, not links. The database locking more and more every day. But we are using it more. After parusing the forum I'm starting to suspect that this is a problem of "Primary Key duplication" If everyone trys to create a record at the same time, would the database lock because we all created the same record at the same time?
If so, how do I get around this? Use something other than Autonumber for the primary key? Or is this an entirely different problem?
By the way, my record locks are set to "No Locks"
Thanks!

Hi all,
I have noticed that ever since i split my database there is a considerable slow down of load time!
When multiple users are on, it is also incredibly slow. is there a practice to follow to speed up the database? each user has their own front end, so im not sure if there is something else that can be done to speed it up

I have a relatively small database of approx 28 MB - for 5 users max on Access 2007 -since the upgrade from '97 I have noticed a significant degradation in performance over the network - not so much on my machine which is the server/host machine but on the clients. All are Pentium/Celeron processors and recently I have beefed up the working memory to approx. 750MB/ 1GB on all these machines.
Even so, on occasion, I might type something in a field on a form - Access seems to 'fall asleep' for 10 seconds or so and then wake up again. Indeed, the window caption states (Not responding) .... This is not happening all the time but enough that when it does happen it is particulalry frustrating. Has anyone else had a similar experience?
I am thinking of splitting the database into a front / back end to resolve this issue but perhaps it is not a network traffic problem / the database isnt really that big considering others that I have read about on the forum that run into 100 of MBs! - can anyone suggest this a sensible idea / or could I regret at a later date?
Thanks for any help/suggestions you may have.
Guido
