I would like to edit a MS Database structure from a Web Browser using ASP. What I mean is I would like to be able to add more columns to a database table or delete or rename...Not the data that is already in the columns... Is this possible? If so can some one please point me in the right direction. I've searched these forums and have not been able to find the answer.
View RepliesI am used to old Access 97 where I could edit a report while others are in it. I created an Access 2007 db and it does not let me edit unless I have exclusive rights to the file. Is there a way to turn that functionality on?(editing reports/queries/ while others are in the database. ?
View 6 Replies View RelatedHello,
When I attempt to open any of my Access databases I am presented only with the form that has been selected as the 'startup' option. Furthermore, it seems to be impossible to switch to 'design' view and my only options on the toolbar are File, Edit, Insert, Records, Windows, Help. As far as I can tell, none of these enable me to select the options required to give me my entire database back.
I am something of an Access novice, so if the above problem seems familiar to anyone i'd be grateful for the solution! The help option within MS Access hasn't been particularly useful.
Many thanks,
David
I have recently gotten a handle on ASP and found it to be a very powerful tool.
I am wondering if there is a way to design a page where I can list my database tables, and by using a command, I can use asp to do the following.
1. Add or delete table
2. Add, delete, or update fields within the tables
for instance: rename a field 'PersonName' to 'MyName' without change the original values in the field 'PersonName'
I have searched all over the net and could not find information on this subject.
Thanks in advance.
Is it possible to edit the recent files of a access database?
We have a main database (version control database) from where you can open a database which is located on a network drive.
By selecting the datbase you need from a dropdown menu, access will check which version you have locally. If there is an updated version available on the network it will download this updated version, overwriting the old one. The 'main' database is then closed and the local version of the database you needed is opened.
The problem is that this local database is mentioned in the recent files history so people are able to bypass using the main database.
In Excel you can clear the recent files with application. Recent Files setting the maximum to 0 and back to original again. In Access you do not have this option.
Where I would be able to find this option. Ideally I'd like to only take out a specific databasename from the recent files, rather then resetting the full list.
I wrote the following statements to update a SQL server database:
Dim MyDb As Database
Dim MyRs As Recordset
Set MyDb = DBEngine.Workspaces(0).OpenDatabase("AMD", dbDriverPrompt, False, "ODBC;DATABASE=AMD;DSN=Remote")
Set MyRs = MyDb.OpenRecordset("SELECT AllAttendanceEvents.* FROM AllAttendanceEvents ORDER BY AllAttendanceEvents.EntryTime DESC")
MyRs.MoveFirst
While Not MyRs.EOF
MyVal = MyRs!EntryTime
Debug.Print MyVal
MyRs.Edit
MyRs!Ix = 50099
MyRs.Update
MyRs.MoveNext
Wend
When it execute the red line statement, it generates the error:Cannot update. Database or object is read-only.
This error is generated isnpite that I already checked the boxes: SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE in the Permissions page of the tables?
Please advise.
I'm trying to secure my database so users can't edit tables, forms, reports, queries, etc.I'm splitting the database, making an ACCDE for users:
1. I inserted code to disable the bypass key.
2. I inserted code to hide the Quick Access Toolbar (QAT) in the On_Load sub of the form that opens with the DB.
3. Deselect Navigation Pane, Allow Full Menus and Allow Default Shortcut Menus are deselected
4. Then, I use the immediate window to show the QAT, I then create an ACCDE.
How do I link this ACCDE with the original ACCDB? Am I supposed to delete tables from the front end and link the forms/reports to the back end DB?
I have a split database made in Access 2007. Each user gets their own copy of the frontend from a script. I wanted to be able to edit the design view of the backend tables even if people were using the database so I made all the forms use snapshot source and only allowed data updates through VBA macro update queries. Having any form open locks the backend source table from being edited. In fact, I've found that just having a normal snapshot query open causes the message "Either an object bound to table 'whatever' is open or another user has the table open. Do you want to open the table as read-only?"
Is there some way to have a table be the source for a form or query, but still have it designable under most circumstances?
Attempted to late-bind a recordset on form load; result was the same:
Code:
Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Select redacted as ft from tblRedacted ", dbOpenSnapshot, dbReadOnly)
Set Me.Recordset = rs
Set rs = Nothing
I have an Access 2010 database that I have split. In the database I have a couple tables, forms and two reports. I have entered some data into one of the tables, but when I go to edit the data in the form the next time, there is no data (though I have verified that there is data in the table). Also, there are two reports that can pull the data without any problem.
Why the data wouldn't show up in the form.
Hi Folks -
I'm really close at getting what I need done, I just have a small bug.
I have a form with a web browser control in Access 2003.
One text box on the form is for an address.
One text box on the form is for the street.
A command button on the form navigates to a website where I am trying to input the values of the text boxes into the text boxes on the web page.
The following code:
Me.WebBrowser0.Document.All("EnteredAddrNmbr").focus
Me.WebBrowser0.Document.All("EnteredAddrNmbr").Value = txtaddr
Me.WebBrowser0.Document.All("EnteredStreetName").focus
Me.WebBrowser0.Document.All("EnteredStreetName").Value = txtStreet
Me.WebBrowser0.Document.All("GetPrecinct").focus
Me.WebBrowser0.Document.All("GetPrecinct").Click
This works - but FIRST I get an error 91 on the first line here stating that the Object variable or With block variable is not set. It lets me debug the code as it's running, showing me the highlighted first line in error. I then click the Continue button in the code window and all the rest of the code executes fine.
How do I get past that first error? And why is it letting me continue afterwards without addressing the error?
If I do a On Error Resume Next, it doesn't fill the boxes with data or issue the Click event command.
Thanks for your help in advance!!

Below is the code I'm using to try and view the microsoft page in my Access Form, but its not working for me.
I searched for the name of the Web Browser by inserting it into Excel and reading the name from the Excel NameBox. Is the another way of confirming the name of the Web Browser?
Private Sub Form_Load()
Me!WebBrowser1.Navigate "http://www.microsoft.com"
End Sub
If I have the correct name of the Web Browser does anyone have any ideas how I can troubleshoot this problem?
Currently, I use two browsers (Avant and IE)

Hi Access World Community,
Im fairly new to vba and was wondering how I can refer to a username field and login field on a website that is within my Microsoft Web browser control.
I have some code below but it is giving me error91 Object vairable or With Block variable not set.
Private Sub Combo2_AfterUpdate()
Me.WebBrowser1.Navigate URL:=Me.Combo2.Text
Me.WebBrowser1.Document.Username.Value = "tester"
End Sub
It navigates to the site fine so it is narrowed down to {Me.WebBrowser1.Document.Username.Value} being the problem.
P.S. The website is https://www.taylorbeandirect.com/default.aspx
I want to find out how I can write VBA to find out if a default browser is open to a particular webpage. I guess I'm going to have to find the browsers handle but I also don't know where to go from there.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am making a point of sale system using access 2010. I want to run the main form through a web browser.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have developed an access database whereby multi users are using via front end application. I have split the database into back end and front end.
Problem is each time i make a change to the front end, I have to go to each pc to update. Apart from this, any other programmer can easily see all my workings and can copy my database.
I want an option whereby when i make any changes to the front end, then the user will get the change upon the next login. I was thinking of using the front end over the local intranet web browser. will have one front end and all users will be connected to that. any changes i make will be on that front end and they will see the change upon next login.
My other problem is that I do not want the front end to be stored at the user's end as any programmer can access my tables, forms, queries, reports, macros even if i disabled the navigation option.
I am trying to create a database such that everyone in my company will be able to access it, but without having to install access and put a link to the DB on every computer. Ideally, I would like to have some sort of web applet that uses the DB on a central server and allows users to add and modify entries without having to know anything about Access.
Any help would be appreciated
I'm trying to use the Access 2010 web browser control to dynamically show a PDF.
The base file path is a constant (R:MS_ACCESS_PROJECTSSAFETYIMAGESMSDS SHEETS)
and the dynamic part is two fields from the selected record:
me.txtMsdsID & "." & me.txtVersion
what is the simplest way to "bind" this so that when a record changes it automatically refreshes this control? I've tried setting it with VBA, but it's not working consistently.
I know the issues isn't the file path, as it works fine if I paste it in windows explorer.
Just wondering if there is a web browser control or work around for reports?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIf I have an XML file, I can load it into an XML document and parse it.
For an HTML file, I have been unable to find similar parsing methods - that is, using DOM and not involving a browser (other than simply treating the file as text). I'd prefer to avoid the browser control because it is different for a number of different Access versions, so the only option remaining that I see is to run Internet Explorer with visibility off.
Can one parse HTML using the DOM without a browser?

the remove picture button works fine, the picture is actualy removed from the database. but the add picture buton wont work, i get an error. i have a idea wy. the northwind DB uses text in its table for the picture ( to define a path). but my database is using OLE object in the table for the pictures. i select add object » use file » and browse for the pic (and fill the checkbox to merge the pic with the DB). northwind uses "getFile" (opens a file browser) to define a path and i think it´s only text based and won´t work with OLE objects.
does annybody know the code to get the OLE Object browser (see atached pic).
to make it short: neet the code to open the OLE Object browser (if there is a code). if somebody thinks the problem is something else, tell me plz.
thanks
From access I'm calling a code in excel. My code in excel pops up a browser that allows the user to select what files they'd like to import. For various reasons I have to import data through excel, not directly to Access which is why the browser appears in excel instead of access. Essentially the user will select a word file which is imported into access through excel.
I'd like this browser to appear in access instead of excel though. If I move my browser from excel to access is there any way to have my code in excel reference the file selected in access? Or is there some way for this browser to appear without the user having to select the excel icon in the task bar? I essentially want the user to only see and interact with access, but because my browser is in excel this isn't possible right now.
I have a form that displays a html document in a WebBrowser object. This displays fine on screen but shows up blank when printing the form. Is there any way to get this to appear on the print? I know you can right-click on the object and select "print" to print the contents of the object but ideally I'd like the page to print in the context of the form. Is this possible?
