Export OLE Object From Access Database
Feb 9, 2006
OK, I have a very large Access database with embedded bitmap photos.
I have realized the error of my ways and would like to list them as linked.
The problem:
How can I get the embedded files out without individually going through, viewing and saving and naming?
Is there a way to save a file do a directory and name it, say the primarykey.bmp or something?
Please help!

Running 2007. In 2003, to make a shortcut for an object, all I had to do is right click and place the short cut where i wanted.
I can't seem to find anyway to do it in 2007
Anybody have any clues?

I am new to access, and am having trouble getting a correct export of XML out of an access database. I am not sure if it is a schema setup or something else.
I have attached a file that shows the format that is coming from access (Bad Format) and the format I am needing (Correct Format).

If I want to duplicate just a table, I can easily select "structure only" under paste options. Is there an easy way to do the same thing for an entire database (tables, queries, etc.) all at once?
In short, someone has a database. They're willing to share the database itself, but not necessarily its contents. The database has a user interface, so the people who use the database don't necessarily know much about Access. Therefore, I can ask them to follow a few basic, built-in Access menu options, but can't ask them to do something manually, such as copying the entire file and then manually emptying the tables. This seems like something that should be easy, but I can't find it. Any help?
Thanks,
Rhythm

Hi There,
Whereabouts would I change the date format from the access database from yyyymmdd ?

Many Thanks

I have used the following script to export a subform to excel but it isn't working for a report.
The report name is spelled correctly etc... but the error message keeps saying error 2465 or if I enable the error handler it says application defined or object defined error.
I don't want to have to export the data to a table first, but if I have to then I guess I will have to.
Code:
Sub fFunctionNameExportExcel(ctrl As IRibbonControl)
'print to excel
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Dim ApXL As Object
Dim xlWBk As Object
Dim xlWSh As Object
Dim fld As DAO.Field
Const xlCenter As Long = -4108
[Code] ....

I have a form based on a calculated query.
To allow users to edit some of the non-calculated fields I change the form's recordsource to a non-calculated query, but I still get "Database or object is read only".
I tried putting "msgbox currentdb.udateable" just after where I change the recordsource and I get the message "True" so db should not be in read only state...
If I open the form with the non-calculated query as source to start with, I can update the fields just fine.
What do I need to add to my code after Form_frmMyform.RecordSource="qryWriteable" to allow writing to the recordset?

I want to change the Ownership of a Database object, in MS Access 2003.
I have created a User in Admins Group, assigned it all the Permissions and assigned it the Owndership of all the objects, except for the Database.
On deleting the existing owner, it shows the Owner of Database object as Unknown.
Looking for help.

I am wondering if there is a quick way to find a database object (table, query, form, report) other than having to scroll through them in the database window.
E.g. I have many many queries and when I need to find one to make changes to it, it often takes me a while to find it when scrolling thru the queries in the database window.
Has anyone ever programmed anything whereby you can type in the object type and name and then it will be highlighted in the database window?
This would be a great time saver.
Thanks,
BJS

Been using XP all this time, just got a new computer with Windows 7. Still using old Access 2000, not my call to update as this is the decision of the guy who owns the database.
Anyways, I opened Access for the first time, just a blank database so I can set up the user account. When I go to Tools > Security > User and Group Accounts and try to assign a password to Admin, I get the error message that it cannot update because the database is read only.
Where did this come from? I have never seen this message before, and the person who owns the database has a couple computers with Windows 7 that I have set this up on and did not run into this issue.
I realize that there can be some compatibility issues with Windows 7 and Access 2000 but it has worked on other Windows 7 computers, and not using the virtual XP mode.

I have adopted someone elses database. It is a front end with about 100 linked tables/forms/reports/modules. The problem is that the database is really large. I would think by looking at the objects that it should be around 5mb tops, however after compacting it is still 63mb.
Is there a way (vba or otherwise) to look at each object and get its size in KB?
Once I can figure out which object is taking up too much space I can work on making them smaller.

I have 2 databases (accdb). Both databases have a loading pop form. Also both databases include the following line of code when the loading form opens:
Code:
docmd.runcommand acCmdAppMinimize
This code works great when I open the databases individually. but my problem is that I have a label on the pop form in accdb 1 with its hyperlink address set to accdb 2 and the subaddress set to the macro name.The hyperlink opens the database 2 just fine and it opens the loading form but it doesn't minimize the application window.

I have 2 tables and from them I do a query called "Query_Dates". There, I created 4 calculated fields which compares fields of the two tables previously mentioned.
What I am trying to do is everytime the calculated fields are equal to "Diff", gets the value from the second table (ADHOC) and and puts it in the 1st table (Master_Table). In total there are 4 fields I would change depending on other 4 fields called (CheckRR, CheckQual, CheckProd, CheckCap).
The problem is that it gives me an error 3027, object is read-only.
Below, you can find the code.
Private Sub Comando27_Click()
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Dim rsd As DAO.Recordset
Dim supplierName As String
Set rsd = Application.CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Query_Dates", dbOpenDynaset)
Set rst = Application.CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Master_Table" , dbOpenDynaset)

Hi together.
I have a problem getting this error message "Cannot update. Database or object is read-only" in my Access form application.
The funny thing is, when i run this program under a Administrator account, it's working...but its not working with the User account.
Of course the User hast permission to this folder, it's just a folder on the "C:" drive.
Is there a special right i have to modify that the user can work on it?
thanks
thomas

I have a 2003 .mdb file and the associated Workgroup Information File which normally resides on a network in a folder V:V-Base-DatabaseDATA. I have the Workgroup Information File.
The database is unsupported and we need to migrate the data to a new web based database.
When I try to open the database with the shift key down I get the following message :
You do not have the necessary permission to use the V:V-Base-DatabaseDATAV-Basebe.mdb object.
What is the best way to access the data and do I need to do this on the server instead of a local drive off site?

I am currently updating an Access database, any way to send an OLE Object (in this case an Excel Spreadsheet) as an attachment to an email address using VBA code? I made a form that shows the Excel Spreadsheet when the record is brought up, but I need to know how to send just the Excel Spreadsheet and not the other information on the form.
Also, if there is an alternate way to have an Excel spreadsheet embedded into an Access form, i'm open to change. The user wants to be able to see the Excel spreadsheet and send it to their supervisor without having to locate the Excel spreadsheet on the hard drive.

Hi
I'm having trouble with my database (Access 2000). I'm trying to export a file into a text file by clicking on a button. Below is the code. Where the code is in bold that is when the runtime error happens.
If i export the code manually by right click on the query > Export then this works, but for some reason by clicking on the button will not work.
Private Sub cmdExport_Click()
Dim sExportFilePath As String
sExportFilePath = DLookup("[DateExportLocation]", "tblSettings", "[ID]=1") ' Path if file to be exported
DoCmd.OpenQuery "qryUpDateTransmissionDateAndTime", acViewNormal, acEdit ' Update dates time
DoCmd.TransferText acExportDelim, "ExportFile", "qryExportFile", sExportFilePath
End Sub
I appreciate your help

I create a front end and back end that resides on the lan. Front has everything besides the table which resides on the back end. Front ends table are linked to the backend. I have two computer that i am testing it on. Both of them runs Access 2003 runtime and windows has been update to the latest version, both xp machine aswell.Both has user right to read and write to that directory on the lan. Ldr exist when either of them uses access file. The strange thing is when i run a command to copy some data from one table to another one. one of the machine give me the following error "3027 Cannot Update. database or object is read only". While on the other machine it runs flawless. Another weird thing is if i modified some values in table by using forms it works great on both so i am a bit clueless where the problems is. its seems my problem is copying from one table to another. i dont have problem modyfing one table. Here is the code i use to that halt my ms access database.
Dim dbs As Database, rsProposal As Recordset, TES As String, stdocname As String, stLinkCriteria As String
TES = Me![TESID]
If TES = DLookup("TESID", "Proposals", "TESID =" & "'" & TES & "'") Then
MsgBox "Proposal Already Exists for TES ID: " & vbCrLf & _
" " & TES, vbOKOnly, "Proposal Already Exists"
GoTo Image264_Click_Exit
Else
If MsgBox("Do You Really Want to Create" & vbCrLf & "a New Proposal for TES ID " & vbCrLf & " " & TES & " ?", 289, "Create New Proposal?") = vbOK Then
Set dbs = CurrentDb
Set rsProposal = dbs.OpenRecordset("Proposals")
With rsProposal
.AddNew
![Long_Desc] = Me![Description]
![Short_Desc] = Me![Opportunity]
![Dest_Site] = Me![Install Site]
![TESID] = Me![TESID]
![End_User] = Me![Contractor/Purchaser Name]
![Date_Due] = Me![Proposal Due Date]
![Date_Completed] = Me![Close Date]
![Status] = Me![Status]
.Update
.Close
Set rsProposal = Nothing
dbs.Close
Set dbs = Nothing
End With
stLinkCriteria = "[TESID] = " & "'" & TES & "'"
stdocname = "Form Prop - Detail"
DoCmd.OpenForm stdocname, , , stLinkCriteria
DoCmd.Close acForm, "Form TES - Detail"
End If

I have created a database for a church cemetery. It contains the usual names, birthrates deaths, etc.... I have also created a map of the cemetery in PDF format with the lot number highlighted which is assigned to a particular record. I did the same in excel with a layout of the lot and a JPEG picture of the grave marker. In my table I created Three columns - Site Plan, Lot Plan, and Grave marker. I insert the specific site plan, lot plan, and jpeg picture using the "insert object" in the table. On my form after a search, I have created three buttons.. Site Plan, Lot Plan & Grave Marker.
I have looked and experimented trying to assign these command buttons to open these files on the form. I don't have any experience with macros or VB code.

Hello
I am using Access 2003(11.6355.6360) SPI
When I attempt to create a new DB - by performing Blank Database I immediately get a message 'Object Library not registered'.
If I 'OK' that box and try to create a table, I can do so - create Table in design view.
When I then try to Import external data - an excel file I get the message 'ActiveX component Can't create object'.
I have looked ob various sites for help and forum information regarding these errors but have found nothing conclusive, with specidfic regard to Access 2003.
The version has been loaded on my machine about 1 year as part pf Office Professional but this is the first time I have attempted to run Access itself.
Does any forum member have any ideas as to how this problem could be resolved.
Thank You
Rgds

I am currently building a database for the company I work for that is fairly similar to the Northwind Database; however it is made from scratch so hopefully some of the common problems with that database won't find their way into mine.My problem is that when I go to my Orders form, I pick a customer from the main form, which creates a record on the Orders table. When I then go to the subform to choose a product/line item, I get the error in my title ("The LinkMasterFields property setting has produced this error: 'The object doesn't contain the Automation object 'OrdersT.") as soon as a product is chosen from the drop down list.

The error is:
The LinkMasterFields property setting has produced this error: 'The object doesn't contain the Automation object 'tblIndividual.' '
Then it also gives me the same one on another table.
I think it has something to do with the link master/child fields. I've tried all kinds of relationships with the three tables and can't figure it out.
I've tried uploading the database here but it won't. It's on my Sky Drive.
