There is a DB with many forms and reports on which multiple employees are going to work. Is there an easy way to prompt each employee to enter his/her own password to be able to open the database?
Since it is important to record who has put data in forms, a column is designated to record the name or ID of the employee who is putting data. Is it possible that the logged-in employee name or ID, as the person who enters data, is put automatically in all forms / reports, etc. since he/she has already logged in?
I would like to create a form that will show the users connected to the database. It would be kind of a tracker who opened the database to work on some cases. The form could show all users from the datbase from top to bottom and to the right a green or red round dot that she/he is active opened the database or not active (closed the database or did not open it still)
I was thinking that it could be applied when the main form opens and that form captures the login from windows into the "tracker" form.
I guess it will only work when the "tracker" form is first open. If the "tracker" form is open later, how to capture those logged in earlier?
I have a form where one person wil insert a new record and click on a button that will display his login name and date she/he inserted the new record. A second person will later check if everything was entered correctly and this person will also press a button that will insert his login name and date in a field.The thing is that the same person can't do the quality check and insert the new record. So if in the field "PersonPassQA" is filled in and the person will do the same in "PersonQA", she/he should get a warning and the field should stay empty. This is the code I use to pass the PersonPassQA:
Code: Private Sub Command24_Click() 'Date pass to QA and person passing to QA Me.[DatePassedQA] = Date Me.[PersonPassQA] = Environ("Username") Me.Refresh End Sub
I found this database with an LOGIN sample. This is working perfectly...(see example)
Now I want to accomplish this:
Based on the user that is logged in I want to generate reports. Is there a way to recall the username or userID and link that to specific reports...
Allso I want to add an mail adress field in the userstable and based on the logged in user I want to hit a mail button and it will check the logged in user... and mail the report to that specific user...
I used the following script "GetCurrentUserName()" in access 2003 to get the username of the logged user. I’m using the following script "CurrentUser()" in access 97 but it always recognise any user as a admin. Is there anyone that could tell me how to solve this please? Thanks
In an network environment that requires users to log in, is there any way for Access to record a user who opens an Access application. The application has no security applied to it. The .ldb has the users listed, but can the .mdb put it into a list inside the .mdb?
Hi, I have a sub, which shows in the Intermediate window who is currently logged to the database. This is my code:
Sub ShowUserRosterMultipleUsers() Dim cn As New ADODB.Connection Dim rs As New ADODB.Recordset Dim i, j As Long
Set cn = CurrentProject.Connection
' The user roster is exposed as a provider-specific schema rowset ' in the Jet 4.0 OLE DB provider. You have to use a GUID to ' reference the schema, as provider-specific schemas are not ' listed in ADO's type library for schema rowsets
Set rs = cn.OpenSchema(adSchemaProviderSpecific, _ , "{947bb102-5d43-11d1-bdbf-00c04fb92675}")
'Output the list of all users in the current database.
Recording to a table Who is logged on to Database, When they logged on and when they logged off. Gets tricky as I really would like the info to come from the mdw file(all users go through this for access) If someone can help would be great. Need my hand held for this as I have been attempting to do this for over a month with no real success. I have so many samples that don’t quite make it happen I am now totally confused.
Continuing with production of my database I've come across another wall that I'm trying to pass. My aim is when the user press the "Quit" button it will export everything to a file which is stored on Google Drive as google drive is installed on the laptops that will be using this database.
However the problem is Google drive is stored in the computer user files i.e C:UsersstudentGoogle Drive - is there a way to retrieve the name of the user that is logged into windows?
Code:
Private Declare Function GetUserName Lib "advapi32.dll" Alias "GetUserNameA" _ (ByVal IpBuffer As String, nSize As Long) As Long Private Declare Function GetComputerName Lib "kernel32" Alias "GetComputerNameA" _ (ByVal lpBuffer As String, nSize As Long) As Long Function ThisUserName() As String Dim LngBufLen As Long Dim strUser As String
[code]....
However cant get this to work - I think that is probably because i'm declaring this code in the wrong place - I've tried declaring the private functions in a class module and the functions in a module - however no success - How do you set this code up? Or is there a new way to do this?
I have a login screen that works fine but I need to lock some part of the system from normal users but I can't figure out how to track if the user who is logged on is security level is high and can authorize the transaction!!!
I have users table and in it I record the users, passwords, security level. So when someone logs on I have no way of knowing who they are and in order check their security level. I did it in the past by setting the C drive VOL into a value and search but as we use Citrix XenApp this is not possible the C drive is the server drive and if multiple users login to to that server then the VOL value would be wrong.
I have some code that when a check box in a table is ticked, sends a pop up message to the users logged in (message is on a hidden form), then it closes the DB after a pre-dtermined period of time.
The problem I'm having is that we are a large site with a about 25 differnet servers that our users log onto via Citrix, when a user is on a different server it isn't displaying the message nor closing the DB down.
trying to achieve this? Or is there a better way to see who is logged in and get a message to them?
I'm using Access 2003 btw
Code I'm using below
Code: Option Compare Database Private Sub Form_Load() Me.TimerIntderval = 10000 ' change to 300000 for about 5 minutes End Sub Private Sub Form_Timer() DoCmd.Close Application.Quit End Sub
I have a list box with a row source query as follows...
SELECT qryPendingCompletions2.ID, qryPendingCompletions2.Department, qryPendingCompletions2.[Employee Name], qryPendingCompletions2.CompletionDate AS [Completion Date], qryPendingCompletions2.[Entered By], qryPendingCompletions2.Goal, qryPendingCompletions2.Comments, qryPendingCompletions2.[Verified By] FROM qryPendingCompletions2 WHERE (((qryPendingCompletions2.Department)=[cbocurrentemployee].[column](3)) AND ((qryPendingCompletions2.[Verified By]) Is Null)) ORDER BY qryPendingCompletions2.Department;
I also have a combo box at the top of the form showing what user is logged in where the row source query is the following...
SELECT Employees.UserID, [First Name] & " " & [Last Name] AS EFullname, Employees.AccessLevelID, Employees.Department FROM Employees WHERE (((Employees.AccessLevelID)=1 Or (Employees.AccessLevelID)=2 Or (Employees.AccessLevelID)=3 Or (Employees.AccessLevelID)=4));
How to only list the data in the list box when the department is the same as the logged in user.
So I'd like to add the criteria to the first query something like criteria = [cbocurrentemployee].[column](3) but this doesn't seem to work as criteria in queries.
I have a table where 4 different people enter their amount of work sheets they complete each day via a form. Each person could have a different total each day. Example:
AJ=5 CH=10 MH=7 CA=3
Each person will have a entry for each work day of the month.
I am creating a query that needs to show each persons total for a month. I know how to get the month but how can I total each persons page count all together and then separately? Example:
All four combined total page count
AJ Page count individually CH page count individually MH page count individually Ca page count individually
I'm undecided in what I should to to track what an employee does for the day. Currently employees have a 5X7 index card which is printed out fields and they fill it in by hand and turn it in.
Instead of the employees doing this I want to record all of this information in the database.
These are the fields that I will include: EmployeeName, Book, WorkType, WorkEffort, StartPage, EndPage, StartTime, EndTime, TotalPgsWorked, Comments.
Should I bound all of these fields to the tblWorkLog or should a create unbound fields and create an append query which will add these fields to the table.
I don't want the users to enter their own start time and end time as they might not record it accurately.
Should the time be recorded this way: Have the user open the form, when the form opens that will record the start time. Have the user have the form remained open until the end of the day or when he or she finishes through out the day. When the form is closed that will record the end time.
What is an alternative of doing that though? Have the user open the form record all the info and have the startime recorded. Exit out of the database, when they finish their work, open the database go back to that record and record the end time?
My problem here would be there is no uniqe ID. The user can work on a Book for a week, and can also work on multiple books on the same day. How would they know which record to open.
I'm uncertain how to lay this out and begin it any insight will be greatly appreciated.
Hi all , I am trying to calculate a person’s age. Went to Customer Form Have a field called cust_birthday ( date/time ) ( 99;00;00;>LL;0; ) Have a field called cust_age ( Number )
Went to Madules / New / then add this code,
Public Function Age(dteDOB As Date, Optional SpecDate As Variant) As Integer Dim dteBase As Date, cust_age As Date, cust_birthday As Integer If IsMissing(SpecDate) Then dteBase = Date Else dteBase = SpecDate End If cust_birthday = DateDiff("yyyy", dteDOB, dteBase) cust_age = DateSerial(Year(dteBase), Month(dteDOB), Day(dteDOB)) Age = cust_birthday + (dteBase < cust_age) End Function
Not Working get no return. Can someone help me. Thank You if you can….
Ok, I'm pretty new to Access '97 and so I have a problem already. I want to make an adres database. I want to make the adres central and link the persons to that adres, so that i can have multiple persons on the same adres. I created an adres table and a person table, but how do I link the person to the adres???
How can i have multiple people entering data into a database, also there is an excel file that imports the info every few min, if i have that open i cannot enter data into the database. theres going to about 4-5 users plus the excel file.
I'm creating a simple relational database of all the attorneys our company work with. I'd like to have three tables: "Law Firms" (firm name & other info), "Attorneys" (what firm, personal info, and what practice groups s/he is involved in), and lastly "Practice Areas" (all different practice areas with codes).
Now, my issue is that people are usually involved in multiple practice areas. Thus, I can't just put a code for one practice area in "Attorneys" table, but I can't put multiple codes in either in one field (right?) because it'd mess up the relations.
What I'd like to accomplish is for people to be able to go to our intranet and, using a form (?), select a law firm and a practice group and get a list of attorneys.
Does anyone know of a good way to solve this? It doesn't have to be pretty, since the DB isn't going to be huge (2000-2500 records).
I have a DB for students. I'm making notes each time we've had a chat. Is there a possibillity to make a relationsship between 2 tables so I can make multiple records for one person? (or any other way) For ex. 03-04-06 there were a couple of things I wrote down. and 03-06-06 there were some other things I wrote down about the same person. and then I will be able to backtrack this information How do I do this.
Note that there will be varying combinations: some people will have a Prefix, Firstname then surname (no middle initials), so I would want to display "Mr Joe Bloggs". But others could have no Prefix but two middle initials, so "Joe P J Bloggs".
I have a search form built that depending on the dropdown selection on the form, it will run a query to SQL Server 2008 and provide data. There are 5 SQL Server db's so there are 5 different queries. I have each SQL Server linked to the Access DB. When I moved to someones else's computer I got a ODBC Call Failed message. In order to fix this, I had to recreate the links on that person's machine, then change the SQL code in the query with the new name of the linked DB.
