Error Adding New Records - DB Locking?
Mar 5, 2008
Hey peeps,
Hoping you can help me out with a problem I have... Basically every now and again I get a call from my client saying they cant add a new record, to any table, they get a message saying they are not allowed. I go in and it seems the DB has somehow locked itself and I have to open it up and repair it... it is a multi user setup with the database on a server.... I have seen the users actually end task on Word if it doesnt respond quick enough and was wondering if this would cause the locking problem!? I am just asking to see if there is a setting or something I can do to try and prevent this happening!?
Any help at all much appreciated!!
Thanks
Matt

:confused: I created a data base in which 4 users enter information using a form. I have no record locking applied. When 2 or more of the users enter the form at the same time but have not entered any information they get a record lock error when one of them tries to enter data. The company wants to open this up to more people so I need to stop this from happening. Any ideas? I'm using access 2003 and windows xp.
Is there a way to assign a new record upon opening the form rather than waiting for data to be entered? I think this would be my last resort because it could create alot of blank records. All help is appreciated.
Thanks

Hi All:
I have a form that at certain times, requeries tables to update pricing. My problem, I have now found, is if users access this form at the same time (even if they are accessing different records) the second user will get error message 3009: "You tried to lock table while opening it, but the table cannot be locked because it is currently in use. Wait a moment..." when requery code runs.
Does anyone have any recommendation on how to handle this? Anyway around this? I am at the end of a very long creation process and hope I don't have to reinvent the wheel. I'll hold my breath! Thanks!
ps I have record-level locking set as well as edited-record record locking

Is there any way to "lock down" newly created records somehow, so that only the person who created them can edit them after the fact?
Obviously, this would require some kind of system where everyone logged in with some kind of userID and password...and even then, I don't know how such a security system could be set up.
Is this possible? If SO, are there any examples of it anywhere that I could check out?
Thanks in advance!

I update the table through a form.
Each page in the form updates one complete row of the table.
I am trying to find a method to block each row of the table (or equivalenty each record in the form) after completing the entry in order to prevent unwanted deletion or alteration of the entries of this record in the future.
Is this possible?

I’m new to access but I have created a table with a form linked to it. It shows one record per page. I just want to be able to lock and unlock individual records in the form by using a checkbox. This will prevent me from accidently making a change to an old record.
For example, when the checkbox is unchecked. the current record on the form can still be edited. When the checkbox is checked, the record can only be viewed, not edited. I still need to be able to navigate through the locked record and create a duplicate from the locked record though. Does anyone know a simple way to do this? My guess that it has to do with the AfterUpdate event? Thanks for any help.

What is "row level locking"?
How can I get around the "encrypting with a block cipher is incompatible with row level locking" error.
I've never had this error before and I do not know what I did to cause it.

I can't seem to find any answers to this maybe i am asking the wrong question, or its so easy nobody asked.
I am viewing / editing some records in a form, I want to view all of the records but only allow edits to records with forms with tblData.Locked = false.
How do I achieve this.
thanks

I have 4 users entering data via aform. The database is located on a shared drive. They are getting errorsthat the record is locked. I believe this happens when 2 or more people open the form and are trying to enter data at the same time. Is there a way to have each person lock a new record on open at the form? or is there a better way to handle this? I'm new at this and am working my way through.
Thanks

About six months ago I created a database for tracking customer calls and comments. I replicated this database because I wanted to be able to make design changes without effecting the users ability to add records. I have no security set up for the database except for startup options. I am having an issue with users being locked from adding records once in awhile. The dialog box says "Could not update; currently locked by user 'Admin' on machine '***'". The more I read this the more I am thinking that they are getting assigned the same record ID when they go to make an entry. Although, if the users are patient and wait a few minutes they are able to finish adding the record without deleting it and starting over. There are now 22 people utilizing the database and about 17 of them are using it consistently. Any insight on this would be appreciated.

I have and order entry/lookup form with a subform to view the line items on the order.
Once an order has been saved and status is ‘placed’ I want the records for that order to be locked.
I would also like to display a message box with a yes/no answer to confirm that they want to issue the order and if they confirm then lock the record otherwise return them to the open order.
I can't find out how to do this, but I'm sure it can be done.
Any help will be gratefully accepted.

Using 2010 32 bit on win 7.I've been having an issue recently with forms not allowing changes to existing records or adding new records. These have previously worked for years and I haven't done any design changes in 12 months.
Some forms are base on queries that are based on single linked tables and some on joined queries but all have unique identifiers with enforced integrity.I noticed that changing the Record Source in the form from 'Dynaset' to 'Dynaset (Inconsistent Updates)' resolves the issue. But I'm stumped to what's causing this to happen in the first place.

On my form I have a set of fields that can be displayed as editable or read-only depending on a "Lockout" checkbox for that record.Is there an easier way of doing this? If not, would it be smarter to create a function to do this? As it stands I'm assuming I would have to have this code run when the form loads, when the Lockout box is clicked, and whenever the record is changed just to ensure that the records are displayed as locked or unlocked appropriately.
Here's what I have:
Code:
Private Sub Lockout_Click()
If [Lockout] = True Then
Me![Customer_Text].Enabled = False
Me![ReqDesc_Text].Enabled = False
Me![MoreInfo_Text].Enabled = False
[code]....

Is there any way other than through coding/controls I can lock specific records in a table.
I have a reference table with less than 200 records on it. 5 and only 5 records need to be locked so that they primarily can not be deleted but also so they can't be edited.
I've read about locking it at form level but that, to me, means some sort of coding.

I have the following SQL to add hours
SELECT tblTrip.PaySlipReference, Sum(tblTrip.NDays) AS TotNDays, Int(Sum(tblTrip.FlyingTime)*24)&"."& Format (Sum(tblTrip.FlyingTime),"nn") AS TotFlyingTime, Int(Sum(tblTrip.DutyTime))&"."& Format(Sum(tblTrip.FlyingTime),"nn") AS TotDutyTime, Int(Sum(tblTrip.TAFB))&"."& Format(Sum(tblTrip.TAFB),"nn") AS TotTAFB, Sum(tblTrip!DutyPayRate*tblTrip!TAFB) AS TotDutyPay, Count(tblTrip.NDays) AS NumberOfTrips
FROM tblTrip
GROUP BY tblTrip.PaySlipReference;
Refering to the part "AS TotFlyingTime" it works perfectly as the format is a 24h and never goes over 23.59 hh.mm. The problem I incour is a incorrect result for the other two parts of the code: "AS TotDutyTime" and "ASTotTAFB", these data have values over 23h59m.

Hi guys, Excuse my novice questions.
I have a query in which i did two things: defined a Column "Line Item Cost " as Sum ( using the dropdown in Design Grid of the query).
Then i calculated another field: Expr13 which is:
Expr 13: Sum([Line Item Cost]+ [Change Request Total Cost])
So, If Line Item Cost = 1363000 and Change Request Total Cost = -40000, then
Expr13 : 1363000-40000 = 1323000, but i am getting the values: 1283000(Somehow the value is getting doubled before addition)
Please look at the attached Document.
Please Help!
Thanks,
Kon

Hi,
I get an error message when I add a new record to my database. It occurs when I open my form and use the [arrowright*]-button and when I use the switchboard button to add a new record using a form.
An error message is displayed, but when I dismiss the error (click OK), then everything seems to be normal and the record is added normally with the entered info. It is a bit annoying, though.
Since I have the dutch version, I'll try to translate the message:
"You can not add/append a value to this object
* The object possibly is a control-element in a read-only form
* The object is part of a form that is opened in the design view
* The value is too large for this field"
The error occurs right after I have typed the first character into a field on the form. The form consists of a few subforms. And I don't think any of the by access suggested errors have anything to do with this...
Any help is appreciated,
Thanks in advance,
MuFfiNimal

I am a neophyte Access 2003 user attempting to build a new Form (all about Lynyrd Skynyrd but that is for discussion in a different forum)
When I attempt to add a Command Button to a Form in Design view, I get stepped through the wizard and all seems to be going well to enable me to add an “Add a New Record” button.
But at the end I get an error message that says “Application Defined or Object Defined Error.” What do I do next?
Thanks for your help, Southern Rock is depending on it.

I want to add a record with attachment to a table in an access (2013) database.
If I ignore the attachment error everything works as it should, but as soon as I add the code for the attachment I receive error code 3259.
Code:
Private Sub add_tune()
Dim dbtune As DAO.Database
Dim rst_tune As DAO.Recordset
Dim rst_tune_in As DAO.Recordset
Dim rs_child As DAO.Recordset
Set dbtune = CurrentDb
[code]....
Since I have a dutch office version the error text (ongeldig veld gegevenstype) is in dutch, translated it means something like a data type mismatch.
t_first_bars is a field in the table tbl_tune . The field type is attachment.

I have a main form with several subforms in tabs. From one of the subforms I list linked records to the main form (Clients) within that subform (Bank account details). I list the records and have a button to add new records.
Where the Client has one or more records in the subform the add button works perfectly.
When the subform has no records the add new records button produces the following error "Run-time error '2498' An expression you entered is the wrong data type for one of the arguments"
The add button has
Private Sub Command52_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "AddClientBankDetailsFrm", acNormal, , , , acFormAdd, OpenArgs:=Me!ClientId
End Sub
the "AddClientBankDetailsFrm" popup form has
Private Sub Form_Load()
If IsNull(Me.OpenArgs) = False Then
MsgBox "Form was opened with ClientID = " & Me.OpenArgs
Me!ClientId = Me.OpenArgs
Else
MsgBox "No ClientID was passed."
End If
End Sub
ClientId is the primary key of the main form and the secondary key in the new record.

error message I am getting when I click on my Duplicate Record button (created through the wizard).
I have two combo boxes on the main form that populates data when the user makes a selection from the combo box. First combo box populates project data and the second combo box populates equipment data. The form is working well with the two combo boxes populating the data into the main table.
Now I would like to add a duplicate record button to copy a record and paste the data as a new record. So, I added a duplicate record button using the wizard and I am receiving the following AfterUpdate error.
Run-time error 3020: Update or CancelUpdate without AddNew or Edit.
This is the code I am using to copy and paste a duplicate record:
Private Sub InputForm_DupRec_Button_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_InputForm_DupRec_Click
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSelectRecord
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdPasteAppend
Exit_InputForm_DupRec_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_InputForm_DupRec_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_InputForm_DupRec_Click
It seems to be duplicating the data from the first combo box, but not the second one where it errors out.

I'm trying to add a combo box field to an existing table and form. I added the new field to my existing table and set it up as an combo box added my row sources. Then added the new field to an existing form and now am getting a error stating "The record source "Table name and added field here" specified on this form or report does not exist. When I just make the new field a text box instead of combo box it works just fine.
