Date() And Now() No Longer Recognized
Apr 6, 2006
I have a replica database in Access 2000.
I changed a form in the design master that had nothing to do with the date or a date field. Everything appeared fine.
Now I updated the replicas, and an error is happening on all replicas as well as the design master. Any reference to Date() or Now() causes errors.
If it's a field on a form it has an #Name error. If Date() or Now() is on a report, a popup to enter parameters appear for the date. This database with these codes have been working for years.
Is it safe to say it's no longer recognizing Date() or Now() ?
Any ideas on a fix?

I'm using Access 2003 with a frontend/backend database on a network. Several of our forms have image controls with links to a folder of JPG images, and these have worked fine for months. I have followed the recommended linking method described here (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=92837&highlight=jpg+link) and as I mentioned everything has worked fine until recently. Foolish me decided to try out Office 2007 beta for a few days but uninstalled it after a few days. Now, on my computer only back on Access 2003, whenever I try to open one of the forms that previously worked I get an error message saying "Access does not support the format of the file '....jpg. Try converting the file to BMP or GIF format". Copies of the same frontend works fine on other work stations, and I can open jpgs in Word and Excel. Or, to be even more frustrating, an embedded jpg will show up fine in my copy of the program - it's only linked jpgs that are rejected. I first repaired Office 2003, then completed unintalled and reinstalled it - same error message. 2 hours with MS tech support has been likewise futile. I'm guessing it has to be some kind of registry error, but nothing I seem to do makes a difference. Any suggestions at all will be greatly appreciated, because my next step is a complete format and clean install of everything.

I am using this formula to format my date field
Convert this:A601030730 to 03-Jan-06
A6 = Year
01 = Month
03 = Day
0730 = Time (not worried about that part)
ApptDate: IIf([abap_030] Is Null,"",Format(DateSerial(Val(Mid(Left([abap_030],6),2,1)),Val(Mid(Left([abap_030],6),3,2)),Val(Right(Left([abap_030],6),2))),"dd-mmm-yy"))
I get the date to "Look" the way I want, but Access does not seem to recognize the formatting as it will not sort properly?
Any suggestion would be welcome, thanks

Hi,
I'm Italian and I started playing (I don't work on it) with access to create an Airline Simulator for MS Flight Simulator. My "program" read data imported in an Access table by a secondary program, and work on it. :cool:
One or Two of my Beta testers found this problems:
1) function "date()" is not recognized in Access 2003 and 2007. in 2003 is read as "date"; in access 2007 is read "date(". The one with Access 2007 resolved the problem reinstalling the Office Suite 3 times. The third was working. nothing else changed. :mad:
2) Access request the OFFOWC.DLL, in an Access2003 version. But only one user... and that .dll is from Access 2007!! :confused:
I wrote the database in Access 2007 and in Access 2003, the file is obviosly Access 2003 format.
I attach it here, for someone that wanna try if he has the same problem. PS due to size of the file, it's a zip containing a .rar file, that contains the .mdb (zip only was 660 Kb)
Do you have some indications!? Thanks a LOT!! :)
Lorenzo.

About three weeks ago, my work computer crash hardcore. Windows (2000 ver) had many corrupt files in the Windows Directory and in the Registry. Because of that, IT gave me an up to date computer running Widows XP. I am still running the same version of Office (2003 Pro).
I think because I have a new machine and a different platform, I am now have issues with trying to administer the permission rights. MS Access is not recognizing me as Admin and/or Creator of the db, therefore I am not able to modify permission rights....... :eek:
Does anyone know how make this db recognize that I am the Creator of it?
Thank you in advance for your help.:cool:

I'm experiencing an interesting problem with a database I have been working on. For some reason, when I tried to enforce referential integrity between two fields, whose values should have matched perfectly, I got an error that I couldn't because they didn't match. When I ran an unmatched query, I found that the numbers DID match, but for some reason Access wasn't recognizing it. Even when I type the values into the field to "correct" it, it doesn't recognize it; I have to copy and paste from the master table into the child table in order for the values to be recognized as matching.
The same thing happens when I try to filter or query the table; if I type the value, it says no records are found, when I copy and paste, or select from the combo box, it works.
ANY IDEAS?? this is really weird and it's happening on multiple computers so it's not just one system. And, this has never happened before with this file or any other that I've worked on...

Hi !
I use access 2000 (french) and runtime access 2000 (english) on XP.
After upgrading workstations with last microsoft security patchs, the use of left, mid or right functions in queries doesn't work anymore.
We know now that the patch acted on MDAC, is it the answer?
I don't know how to make it work.
If you have any idea, it would be great.

I have a form with a query set up as the record source. If there are records in this query, the form will display. When the user clicks a button, if there is another record in this query, the form displays the next record. When it gets to the EOF, it should close this form, but EOF is not being recognized (I run debug and it says it's false when the button is clicked)? I get run-time error '3201' after I click the button twice.
I know for a fact that there are 2 records in this query. So once I click the button on the 2nd record, the form should close.
Code:
Private Sub SelectTblMyMedButton_Click()
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Set db = CurrentDb()
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("qryMedDataSelect", dbOpenDynaset)
[Code] .....

I have a query that I referenced it to a combo box in a form. In my form I created a combo box which has a list of VendorName and I want my query to opens a VendorName report based on whatever chooses in the combo box so that I use the combo box name in the criteria of the VendorName in my query. Somehow I get an error which says "The Microsoft Office Access database does not organize "[Forms]![Form1]![Vendor_Name]" as a valid field name or expression".

Access 2010. I have a query that I referenced it to a combo box in a form.
If I rename the combo box, save it, and then rename it back to the same name it works fine for a while and then stops working again.

I use the following code to achieve following
a) Open a word document from MS access / VBA,
b) Connect to data from a query
c) mailmerge it
d) Save it as a new document containing mailemerged letters.
The code does open the required document as I can see it open.
I put a message box to recheck that filename/path is what I mean, and to to know till which line the code runs. Code runs till that point and that word doc is seen open. I get the error message before
Then I get error message.
I was fooling around and was getting message " This command is not available because no document is open" I tried to remove few lines thinking redundancy. Before getting the message, I was also getting the error trapping message "No documents opened."
Now I am getting different message.
I am getting message " The remote Server Machine does not Exist or is unavailable"
Following is the code I have written.
Dim xlApp As Object
Set xlApp = CreateObject("word.Application")
xlApp.Visible = True
fn = FormPathName("941 2014 AutoOpen.doc")
[Code] .....

I maintain a grade book application that uses many queries whose results are determined by "school year". Most of these are reports and I have a combo box on the Print form for that allows the user to select the school year. The criteria field of the several queries derived by school year is:
[Forms]![Main Navigation]![Print Form]![SchoolYear]
SchoolYear being the combo box control.
They work fine.
I have now added a function to export data to Excel. This is done in a VBA module and I am using a query to select data for the record set I use to write to Excel:
Set objRst = Application.CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(strQueryName)
When I hard code the school year in the query criteria field (i.e. "2012-2013") the process works fine, but if I revert the query to point to the print form field as above, I get an empty recordset.
The Excel export is executed from a control on the Print Form, so the form is open and the combo has data showing, just as it is when a report is run whose data is derived from a query.
When I execute the query from the VBA module, the query is not getting the school year selected on the Print form passed to it properly.

I created a DB program for my last job that resided on a stand alone PC. It has the Access generated user level security (so there's a "secured.mdb" file) and can only be opened via the desktop icon. In the past, when I copeid the db to a flash drive, took it home to work on it, it always said I didn't have permissions to run it unless I placed it in the right spot on my computer where I've got it set up with a secured file and the desktop to open it.
Yesterday, I noticed that I can now open it anywhere, including my laptop, and it just opens. My concern is, I don't trust the business where the program is being used to not take it and call it their own (I trust the management team, however).
ANy ideas why it no longer looks for the user level security now?
I'm running XP Pro on both machines, Access 2002 on the desktop and 2003 on the laptop.
Thanks.

Not exactly sure if we has anything to do with sql server so sorry if it isnt strictly relevant.
I have a database on sql server and am using an access data project as the front end. Have finsihed this and is working fine till I try and use it on another computer on the network. It still connects to the database fine (well on most machines on the network not sure why not on the others) but the problem is access functions in my reports and forms seem to have stopped working and show up as ?#name
Examples of the kind of functions I am talking about are
=Format$([DateFrom],"Long Date")
=[SumOfMinutes]60 & Format([SumOfMinutes] Mod 60,":00")
any suggestions?

I'm using Access 2000 along with Oulook 2003. Since we changed email servers, the send report no longer works. The addresses no longer appear to be valid. I can manually put all the names in every time an email is sent, but that is defeating the purpose!
I even tried changing the addresses to what an outsider would use rather than our internal name list; (milko@valspar.com instead of Mary Ilko) but this didn't work either.
Here's the code:
Private Sub cmdMailApproval_Click()
OnError GoTo Err_cmdMailApprovalClick
Dim stDocName As String
stDocName="rptForApprovalReport"
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acViewPreview,, "[Batch#]=forms![frmInbound]![Batch#]"
DoCmd.SendObject acSendReport, StDocName, acFormatSNP, "FirstName Lastname",,,"Pre SHip Approval", "Please see the attached."
DoCmd.SendObject
Thanks in advance for your help!

I recently upgraded to Access XP (2002) and now my application will not respond to F11 to get into the development window. This application has two mdb files. One is the database (with security), and the other one has the forms, queries, reports and links to the tables in the first mdb.

I developed a database in 2005 and used the 'Left' function in many of the queries to obtain the the correct text for output to reports. The database worked extremely well for a year and a half.
I have not accessed it for the past year. Recently I opened the database for use with a new project and I keep receiving the error message:
! Undefined function 'Left' in expression.
I haven't changed any of the expressions and do not understand why this funtion no longer works.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Situation: I have written a fairly straight forward nested query which aggregates sales & activity data (num_calls, date, etc.) by customer specialty (CODE_ESP_ACC1) in a single query. The SQL I have written to achieve this is as follows:
SELECT Q002.GP, Sum(Q002.Num_Calls) AS Total_Calls
FROM (SELECT Q001.CODE_ESP_ACC1, Count(Q001.ACT_ID) AS [Num_Calls], Iif([Q001].[code_esp_acc1]="MG" or [q001].[code_esp_acc1]="MF",1,0) AS GP
FROM (SELECT [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].ACT_ID, [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].TER, [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].ACC_ID, [11 Physicians with main specialty].CODE_ESP_ACC1, [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].DATE
FROM [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM] LEFT JOIN [11 Physicians with main specialty] ON [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].ACC_ID = [11 Physicians with main specialty].ID_ACC
WHERE ((([06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].POSITION)=1))) AS Q001
GROUP BY q001.code_esp_acc1, Iif([q001].[code_esp_acc1]="MG" Or [code_esp_acc1]="MF",1,0)
HAVING (((Q001.code_esp_acc1) Is Not Null))) AS Q002
GROUP BY Q002.GP;
This works absolutely fine. I can save this query and run it many times without problems. However, if I then re-enter SQL edit view, Access reformats it as follows:
SELECT Q002.GP, Sum(Q002.Num_Calls) AS Total_Calls
FROM [SELECT Q001.CODE_ESP_ACC1, Count(Q001.ACT_ID) AS [Num_Calls], Iif([Q001].[code_esp_acc1]="MG" or [q001].[code_esp_acc1]="MF",1,0) AS GP
FROM (SELECT [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].ACT_ID, [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].TER, [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].ACC_ID, [11 Physicians with main specialty].CODE_ESP_ACC1, [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].DATE
FROM [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM] LEFT JOIN [11 Physicians with main specialty] ON [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].ACC_ID = [11 Physicians with main specialty].ID_ACC
WHERE ((([06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].POSITION)=1))) AS Q001
GROUP BY q001.code_esp_acc1, Iif([q001].[code_esp_acc1]="MG" Or [code_esp_acc1]="MF",1,0)
HAVING (((Q001.code_esp_acc1) Is Not Null))]. AS Q002
GROUP BY Q002.GP;
... and this no longer works (syntax error in FROM statement).
To save you sifting through the SQL, the error is caused by Access replacing the soft brackets () aroung the outermost FROM statement with an object identifier-style hard bracket []. - specifically, the outermost SELECT statement now reads
SELECT Q002.GP, Sum(Q002.Num_Calls) AS Total_Calls
FROM [
instead of
SELECT Q002.GP, Sum(Q002.Num_Calls) AS Total_Calls
FROM (
and the alias for the subquery reads
]. AS Q002
instead of
) AS Q002
Changing the Access alterations back to my original fixes this problem - so the problem is more an annoyance than a disaster. However, I have no idea why Access is doing this to my query, nor how to prevent it from doing so. Does anybody have any experience of this behaviour in Access and any ideas of how to fix it?
Help! Replies appreciated.

Several years ago, my colleague and I built some databases (using Access 97, if it matters). We are both responsible for the maintenance of them.
Recently, the hard drive in my PC crashed, and the IT group replaced it. Now, when I open one of the databases, I cannot see all of the Forms, Tables, etc. Thinking the database had been corrupted, I asked my colleague to open it on his machine. Everything was there, and can be viewed from his PC.
All was well until my hard drive was replaced. Has anyone seen this before? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I have a large spreadsheet with one column of information which is longer than what access accepts as long text. So when I convert the spreadsheet to access all the large boxes of information are shortened so that I am losing a lot of information.

i wish to combine multiple fields (there are no fixed number of fields, they vary depending on the data, so i guess union queries are out of the question) into one large field. For example:
TABLE 1:
PNumber
PName
C1
C2
C3
1
AAA
0.1
0.2
0.3
2
BBB
0.4
0.5
0.6
So i wish to combine the fields C1, C2 and C3 into a larger fields containing all the data. So considering the example above, it should look like this:
TABLE 2:
PNumber
PName
C1+C2+C3
1
AAA
0.1
1
AAA
0.2
1
AAA
0.3
2
BBB
0.4
2
BBB
0.5
2
BBB
0.6
I plan on entering data into TABLE 1 using a form and running a query, or some code etc so that it looks like TABLE 2.

I am using an application that uses an Access database, and I believe the original database was created in the 97 version. The application queries the database and allows a person to view the data in the database to select a particular instrument to test. When the MS Office was upgraded by our IT we are no longer able to view the data in application. The fields, rows, and columns appear, but the numbers and letters are not visible. The data is really there, but can't be seen.
I have attached a screenshot of the view that shows the white columns and rows.
