Forms :: Object Doesn't Contain Automation Object Table Name
Jan 5, 2015
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.

I'm getting an error message (informational only):
The object doesn't contain the automation object 'ClientID.'You tried to run a visual basic procedure to set a property or method for an object. However, the component doesn't make the property or method available for Automation operations.
Check the components documentation for information on the properties and methods it makes available for automation operations.
This happens when I start entering data in the field "productname" of a subform.
So I'm assuming something in the form or in the code of the form is referring to ClientID. but I've checked it, and there is nothing referring to it anymore. Well, at least as far as I'm aware of.
This afternoon access crashed without any error, it just closed. Upon reopening the DB again, all my work of the past one and a half week was gone. Normally I always backup the data, but these past days I didn't due to christmas and still working a lot too. So I forgot.
I did some redesigning in the process this evening, deleting and adding some fields and code.
I can't get rid of this error. Can anyone help? Or point me in the right direction?
Also the DB is 3.5MB in size. While it is completely empty. And I can't imagine that some empty tables, queries, forms and a bit of code can be so much. But that's for a later time to worry about I guess, unless one of you says: this and that, maybe that works... Otherwise, I would really be very glad already if the error disappears....

In simple terms please explain what an Automation object is. The Access help is any help!
When I try and enter a value it comes up with "The object doesn't contain the Automation subject "Surname"" The only surname field I have is on the header of the form and is not related to the field that prompts the message.
Any ideas much appreciated

Need a second opinion on this one, if someone has the time.
The boss is asking me about this:
Small db to track keys issued to individuals.
2 tables:
#1. ID, (with auto numbering for ID,) and basic name, SS #, etc.
#2. ID and Key number, Date Issued, etc, without auto numbering.
1 to many relationship (#1 to #2).
Cascadeing Update and Delete, and referencial integrity.
He has a form and subform based on a query, wants to do basic info entry on main form (for table #1), then tab to subform to enter specific info for (for table #2).
Problem is, when he tabs to the subform, he gets "Automation Object "Keys Issued" Not Available" error message.
I've found that in his querry, he is pulling the ID from both tables.
I can stop the error by eliminating the the ID from Table #1, using only the one from Table #2.
Is this just a fluke, or do you think I may have hit on the root cause? Any suggestions for problems to watch out for?
Thanks in advance,
BeckieO

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 creating an form in a database and whenever one of my procedure's run it creates this error message:
The expression ON Load you entered as the event property setting produced the following error:
Member already exists in an object module from which this object module derives.
*The expression may not result in the name of a macro, the name of a user-defined function, or [event Procedure].
*There may have been an error evaluating the function, event, or macro.
An ideas?

I keep coming up with the warning- object does not contain the automation object "SelectCountry" .
I have searched through but can not find this in the object properties. Is there a way to do a search through all code or properties through an automated search within Access?
Thanks

I have been inserting thumbnail pictures into my table for the last six months with no problem. The field in my table displays "Microsoft Photo Editor 3.0 Photo." Now when I enter my thumbnail by inserting an object, the field displays the word "package" and the photo does not appear in the form where the pictures are displayed.
What would cause the word "package" to appear when I am inserting an object just like I have been doing for months?

I have an unbound form, with a subform datasheet (sfmStaffDS) - not linked to the parent form, which displays a list of all staff. There is another subform (sfmStaff), which displays data based on a field in the form which takes its value from the DA subform.To add a staff member I press the button and this clears the fields down as expected.
However, when I start entering data (in the First NAme field), I get the error as stated in the title. Interestingly, I can carry on and the data gets saved as 'normal'.I have used this technique before with success, except that the DS subform is linked to a value on the parent form.

I'm building a simple database for storing records about books.
I'm currently working on one of the data entry forms. Part of this form is supposed to enable the user to add details about the book and the series that it belongs to (if it does belong to one).
The relationship is One-to-Many: One series can have many books. I've made the series part a sub form.
When I enter some data to test that it works, I get an error message when I try to add a new series using the sub form. It says:
"You can't assign a value to this object.
*The object may be a control on a read-only form.
*The object may be on a form that is open in Design view.
*The value may be too large for this field."
As far as I know there isn't anything wrong, so I'm not certain why this error message comes up. I think it may have something to do with the primary key being the AutoNumber data type, but I just click 'OK' and ignore it, and it works fine.
The database works as far as I can see, I just want the error message to stop appearing.

I have a form Based on a tables called:-
TBLInvoice which contains to fields relative to the question
UseDefaultDescOfServices = Yes/No Type
DescriptionOfServices = Long Text Type with Rich Text Enabled
And second table called TBLCustomerPOs which contains a field
DefaultDescriptionOfServices = Long Text Type with Rich Text Enabled
What I am trying to do is if the UseDefaultDescOfServices = Yes then copy the data in DefaultDescriptionOfServices to DescriptionOfServices and make the field read only and turn off the boarder on the field. If it set to no then the user can enter his own data, turn on boarder and make the field editable.
However I am failing at the first hurdle, i.e. I cannot copy the data. Below is what I have tried to do but it doesn’t do anything.
If [TBLInvoice]![UseDefaultDescOfServices] = -1 Then
[TALInvoice]![DescriptionOfServices] = [TBLCustomerPOs]![DefaultDescriptionOfServices]
End If

possible to exclude certain boxes when a form is set to read only?My database essentially has 4 user levels (Developer, Admin, User and Guest), and whenever a Guest opens up a form, the form opens as Read Only and a message box displays telling you this. However on most of these forms, there are search boxes which allows you go straight to a specific record, but they don't modify any data, but because the form is read only, I can't type in these comboboxes. So is there anyway to exclude these boxes from being read only?

I have a form with several objects:
Projects -> which have Sources -> which have SourceTypes
The underlying DB has tables for Projects, Sources and SourceTypes:
Code:
Table Projects;
Fields:
ProjectID : AutoNumber;
etc, etc
[Code] ....
So, I'm trying to get all the Sources for a given ProjectID, and I'm using the following SQL statement:
Code:
SELECT ID, ProjectID, Sequence, Name from Sources WHERE [Sources].ProjectID= MyProject.ProjectID;
Which actually gets coded (because MyProject.ProjectID is a variable) as:
"SELECT ID, ProjectID, Sequence, Name from Sources WHERE [Sources].ProjectID= " & MyProject.ProjectID & ";"
What actually happens is that Access jumps in and says (via a Message Box) "Give me a value for Source.ProjectID.
I've just done that in the SQL statement!
How do I get a 'real' SELECT to work for the RowSource?

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?
