I have a 2007 db, been working no it in 2007 and occasionally in 2010, careful not to use any 2010 items. Well I goofed and added a Navigation Form (2010 only) and then deleted it. Now My 2007 db opens in 2007 fine, everything works, but the glowering Warning message and lovely yellow yield sign show up constantly. How do you resolve the incompatible items and clear this warning?
View RepliesHi,
I know how to remove the Navigation Pain (or Pane) so that it doesn't show on start up, but if you then want it (F11) how do you then get rid of it!! :eek:
It's driving me mad!!!
All you seem to be able to do is open and close the "shutter bar" and not remove it completely.
Any suggestions? :confused:
I have an Access 2010 db on a shared network drive. All users accessing the db are running Windows 7 OS and have a licensed corporate version of Access 2010. The advanced options "Shared", "Edited record" and "Open dabases by using record-level locking" are turned on. Additionally, the locking time limits are set to their default levels. If a user selects the save icon after making additions or updates, the following waring message appears:
Costar Job Database can't save design changes or save to a new database object because another user has the file open. To save you design changes or to save to a new object, you must have exclusive access to the file.Since I developed the db, I am the only one that makes design or object changes. I know that users don't need to select the save icon to update the db, but I don't want them to "freak out" if they select save and see the message.
Is there any way to prevent the message from being displayed?
How can I make a warning pop up when a user tries to access a database that another user is already in??
View 13 Replies View RelatedMy office is running Microsoft Access 97 but I use voice recognition software and that is not a real compatible with the 97. I need to upgrade to the latest Microsoft Access version.
My question is if I upgrade to Microsoft Access 2003 is there a way for my created databases to be saved so the users of Microsoft Access 97 will be able to open and use the database? I understand they will not be able to make any changes to the database but will they be able to open it/view it entered their criteria into the queries can be able to see their information?
Any comments will be greatly appreciated.

Hi all, I have created a database for work in Access2003. I have two questions. The first is, many people at the work place use AC97 and some use AC2000. In order for everyone to use the database, i have saved it in AC97 format. It seems to open fine in Ver2000 and 2003, but i get this nag screen on load up with these versions saying "do you wish to convert the database". As I'm working off a shared drive, i don't really want anyone converting the dbase. Is there a way to disable this nag screen when loading in AC2000 and AC2003??
Second question, is it possible to have more than one instance of the database open at anytime? . If I've got the database open, my colleague can't open it. Its a simple database that writes records directly to a table. Thanks for any advice.
Will Access 2000 run on Vista? I've heard that it will, but I would like to verify that before I purchase the upgrade. I currently use Access '97.
Also, does Access 2000 have to be "product activated" like the newer versions?
Thanks.
I have an Access db that is going to be shared by two different users. One user has Access 2003 and the other has Access 2002. Will there be any problems using this setup if both the users are accessing the MDB file at the same time?
Thanks,

I have MS Access 2010. I cant remove password because when I open in exclusive mode, file, info, there is no decrypt password option.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a database that works fine on access 2000. The problem is that when I open it in Access 2007 the switchboard does not display correctly and my command buttons do not work. Also, my field that autofill from a combo box do not fill in. I am assuming that access 2007 does not recognize the code for all of these. If this is the problem does anyone know of a reference that can be used to change the code to work.
Also, thought I would mention that I opened it in Windows Vista. I have read about problems with Vista. I have not tried opening the database on a computer running XP.
Just wanting to get working now in case my company changes over to Office 2007 in the future.
Thanks for any info.
It seems that if I have a continuous subform open and scroll down through the records, then hit Alt, the subform immediately scrolls back to the top again?
I only noticed this today when I scrolled to a particular record, then wanted to use Alt+Tab to switch to a different window. When I Alt+Tab'd back to my DB, the subform had scrolled back to the top and I had to scroll again to find my record. It was only then that I realised the auto-scroll was happening as soon as I hit the Alt key.
How to disable this behaviour as I use Alt+Tab pretty frequently (as do my users, more importantly) and it will get pretty annoying pretty quickly if the subform keeps reverting to the top?
I am upgrading an Access 2000 system to 2007 and replacing user toolbars with Ribbons.I have a strange parsing error that I think is not my error.
I have placed the following control into a group:
<control idMso="GroupPrintPreviewClosePreview" label="Close Preview" enabled="true"/> and "the system" rejects it with Error Code 0x80004005 Element <group> is not expected in <group>I
t turns out that it is finding the word Group within the double quotes and interpretting is at part of the XML syntax.
Change to another idMSO and the problem goes away. Same happened with another control that had the word Group in the id.
I think the answer will be very simple but I can only seem to graph one field using the Graph wizard. I have a table that have running totals:
Date-----Sales ---- Budget
1/8/2013 0 2000
2/8/2013 2500 4000
3/8/2013 2500 6000
4/8/2013 4000 8000
I can only seem to chart the first column after the date.
I have a button which runs some VB, it brings up various message boxes as it prints a report to file, runs a query etc etc. I am hoping to display a basic form, which simply covers most of the screen and states "Please Wait" or something. I have already built the please wait form (frm_please_wait) and have set it to pop up. I have added it to my VB to open before I run the queries/output to file however the messages still appear on top..
How can I force the form to display on top of everything else in access ( it is only visibly for a few seconds, depending on the spec of the pc).
Is it possible to create a line or bar graph as a report in Access 2007?
If so, how would you go about it?
I've been updating the look of some of my db's and am trying to access the new style colour picker per Office 2007/10.
Up to now I have been using
Private Declare Function ChooseColorAPI Lib "comdlg32.dll" Alias "ChooseColorA" (pCHOOSECOLOR As ChooseColor) As Long
which displays the pre 2007 style.
I've looked all over the web but cannot find anything relating to the current style (other than using it from the ribbon or control properties), so not sure if I should be looking for a different function or a change to the ChooseColor type values.
All db's are running 32bit access and at the moment 32bit OS but will no doubt have OS upgrades to 64bit soon.
how to export Access' many-to-many relationships in excel.
My database is a Project portfolio management tool. One project has many different fields, some of which can only be single values (one-to-one, easy to export to excel) and many others are multiple values fields, built as many-to-many relations (through junction tables).
One usage that was not specified at database creation time was the ability to export the portfolio to excel, so non-access-savvy users can browse, filter, sort and play with the portfolio however they want.
If I build a report, it will contain as many sub-reports as there are junction tables, rendering it un-exportable to excel. A Form would have to be continuous, barring the use of sub-forms for the m2m relations.
Building a query will generate many lines per project (as many as the most populous multiple field), making the excel sheet nearly unusable (in my users opinion, and here, the client's the king).
The best route I have been exploring so far involves "transforming" the multiple fields, so a the different "rows" become additional "columns".
Is there a way i can use substitution variables in access 2007, i wrote a query that returns rows which have a word okeu in them but i want to use substitution variables so that i can retrieve any word i want and if the word i want is not there i want to pop a message saying `word not there` its easier to do it in oracle sqlplus but how can i apply it in access using sql queries?
This is my sql I made in access
Code:
SELECT MENU.NAME_REC, MENU.C_REC, AUTO.C_GROUP
FROM MENU, AUTO
WHERE (((MENU.NAME_REC)="okeu"));
I am on a deadline today and when I went to open an Access 2007 (I abhor the fact that I am forced to use 2007) database, it will not open. It gives me the error message Unrecognized database format [file path].
I have tried creating a brand new database and importing all objects from old to new but I get the same error message.

Tomorrow one borrower need to return the book. click ok to view the data.can access 2007 do this kind of alert message..?
View 4 Replies View Relatedcreating a product catalog over a range of products.
I want to create a catalog where each page of the catalog contains a product, describing; Performance data, pictures of the product, technical drawings, and documents on the product e.g.
Also it should be possible to search in the performance data, so that one or more parameter from all products can be compared used for benchmarking the products to each other.
I am using the 2007 version, because it's the one that I have available at the current time. My questions are mostly related to the possibilities of creating such a product in Access 2007, or if I need to upgraded to a newer version or even use another software program?
As an "admin" of our corporate local db, maintaining and/or upgrading is my task.
Usually there are logged-in users, then I have to ask them (mostly via communicator) to please log off, because I can not modify with users in the db.
I would like to send these users a message via Access, like "Please log off from the db for maintenance blabla".
Everytime I close, open, modify, etc, you get my drift,either a linked table or an in database table, Access validation takes minutes before I can continue.
What can I do to reduce this time or process?
Is it possible to requery a subform 'in the background' before repainting / refreshing the screen?
I have a subform which has multiple controls, some of which have conditional formatting applied to them.
The problem is, whenever I open the tab that contains the subform, there is a momentary 'flicker' as the CF calculates and highlights the appropriate controls. I have a requery command in the change event of the tab control (rather than recalculate the entire form).
Code:
Private Sub tabAllFunctions_Change()
Select Case Me.tabAllFunctions.Value
Case 0 ' Page 0
Me.sfmSubForm0.Requery
Case 1 ' Page 1
Me.sfmSubForm1.Requery
Case 2 ' Page 2
Me.sfmSubForm2.Requery
End Select
End Sub
It would be neater if the subform waited until all of the necessary requerying / recalculating were done first before showing the final result. Admittedly this would introduce a short delay (we are talking a fraction of a second here) but it would make the output appear more stable rather than seeing controls flick between colours while the recalculation takes place. For me, this would be preferable.
How I can 'pause' the screen update while the Requery takes place to remove the momentary flicker?
I am writing a small database using MS Access 2007. I have in it a function for running queries and printing reports. Printing works just fine if any one of the multiple query criteria is give.
I also want to trap errors and present a message if the user clicks the "Print" button without a query criteria. At the moment I only get a run-time syntax error message which has a "debug" button for accessing the entire code. I want a message that will say "There was no search criteria".
This is the code for printing:
Code:
Private Sub cmdPrint_Click()
Dim varWhere As Variant
varWhere = BuildFilter
' Update the record source
Me.RecordSource = "SELECT * FROM q_Vehicles " & varWhere
[code]....
