General :: Auto Logout - User Settings
Jul 11, 2014
I am using this [URL] .... in our project but have made a minor change so it logs people out rather than close Access completely. It works beautifully but I want to take it a step further.
Instead of hardcoding the times in these two values
intMinutesUntilShutDown = 10
intMinutesWarningAppears = 2
I'd like to give users the options to set these themselves as not everyone will be the same. I am thinking I would have to check for who is currently using the database, this is stored in a hidden form in the following field.
[Forms]![frmwhoson]![whoson]
This username matches the users First Name in table Employees and in this table I have two fields to store these values
logmeoutafter
showlogoutmessagefor
So passing these values for the current user rather than having the logout times hardcoded.

have a vba code written to have my MS Access 2007 tell Outlook to send an e-mail with several attachments to whom it may concern, but I need it to change the "From" field in the e-mail, because there's many people who can send this, but it's looking like it's all being sent as my user. This is the code, it all works, but it doesn't change the sender field. Should I make some sort of auto-login macro or something?
Call fctnOutlook("Reconsideraciones BCH", EmailTasador, Email, , Subjet, "Agradecer revisar la tasacin indicada, de acuerdo a lo pedido en email adjunto, y me des tu opinin. " & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "Favor no responder a Reconsideraciones BCH, no recibe correos es solo para enos, enviar a visador indicado en el email" & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "Le saluda atte." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & usu & vbCrLf & "Seccin Tasaciones" & vbCrLf & "Banco de Chile" & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & vbCrLf, Nz(Tpath), "Yes;No;Maybe", 2, True)
With objMail
.To = EmailTasador
.CC = Email
.Subject = Subjet
.Attachments.Add (Tpath)
[code]....

I have an access 2007 database that is split front end and back end. There are about 15 users and the backend is stored on the network. Currently I am e-mailing out the FE when chagnes are made so they have the latest copy.
With everything I have read I think a bat file would work the best at allowing me to make changes on demand without having to continually email out new versions of the FE. Sometimes the changes are behind the scenes unnoticable to the user while others are obvious.
Questions: Exactly HOW does a bat file work? When the user clicks on the access file stored on their laptop? Where is the bat file stored? I am unfamiliar with where to write the bat file code as well - notepad perhaps?
I am not sure how to create a bat file and what the code should be?
For version tracking I need to put a version table in the BE and in the front end correct?
have made a few significant changes but I'm holding out e-mailing it if I can get this version copying figured out and in place first.

I've got a database that allows all users to review an address register. If they find errors or mostly get updated information they have another form they can fill out to make the recommended changes. Only I have access to the main DB to make the change permanent.
The question I have is there a way for Access to send me a notification that someone has requested the change?
I know that sending an email is doable - in Access. However, that's not an option for our network here. I was thinking something along the command prompt "Net Send" command. However I've not been able to get that to work by itself - let alone within Access...
I have used VB code in the past to store what PC is using the database, I could modify that to alert me whenever I open the DB up from my PC. But I was trying to get away from having to open this particular DB up every day and check for changes.

Why does one have to enable all macros in the trust center in order for VBA to run? I'm making front end applications with Access and having to allow ALL macros to make them user friendly makes a huge hole in general security. I don't use any macros - it's all done by VBA.
Users are on a plethora of different platforms so changing reg keys is out of the question. Is there some way of self sign an Access accde? Is there some safe GENERAL approach (trusted sites is not good either) to allowing VBA from my applications ONLY?

Hi.. Been trying to work this out for a little while now. I run an IT workshop for adults with learning issues and although my other office skils are pretty good, my Access skills are a little lacking.
My clients login and out on paper at the moment but I would like to change this to a database type system. The entries would only be name and an automatic one to record actual time of login.
Can anybody help me with the automatic entries?
Many thanks

I have a multi user database in Access 2000 that is on a server. The individual users have shortcuts pointing towards the server instance. One user and one user only when opening the shortcut gets the error "you do not have exclusive rights to the database" .
All other users can enter the database with no error box. I have checked the advanced setting under options and they are correct. Ironically if you go to start and open access then navigate to the database shortcut. It opens with no error.

Hi,
I want to make database only for time spent in office. In that database i want people to login and when they finish there work press logout. The table would consist nt username, time logged in and time logged out. This would enable time spent at work. When the person presses login it would stamp the time on the table along with the username.In this only check i want to enable is if the person presses login again then it says already logged in press logout. So no duplicate entrys in the database unless person first logs in and then logs out. I want to enable check before entering the data in the table. Attached is the database for further analysis. Please advise.
Thanks and Regards
Ankur

I am need of something that will help me auto populate the user name on a form. What I am thinking of is setting something that is diplayed when the form is open, asking users to enter their name. I then want this name to be populated in the user name of each record they update.
Can anyone help me? This sounds like a pretty easy thing to do , but sometimes what I think should be easy turns out to not do-able!

I have a form where a user will enter a 11 digit number (12345043456). Using ASP (VB) this string of numbers queries an access database and returns the entry for that specific number to the user.
Unfortunately, the numbers in the access table are an 11 digit number with hyphens seperating the string like this 12345-04-3456 (the ndc # of a pharmaceutical).
So What i need is some code that monitors and modifies the form input so that the hyphens are added in to the string when the user is inputting the data.
If i cannot do this, then is there some VB that I can add which modifies the field in the text file when it is imported into access on a daily basis.
Thanks

I have been managing a database system for a homeless shelter in my volunteer role. There is a certain feature that would improve accuracy of the inputted records, as well as freeing up time for staff. That is - auto filling a user's Gender and Nationality when inputting a record for the drop-in centre.
Currently, when a forename and surname is inputted in the "DropIn_Input" form, it is checked against the stored 'service users' table and checks for the name combination. If the name combination is not present then the forename and surname fields change to 'New'.
What I would like is to keep this, but if the service user name is stored in the 'Service User's table then I would like their Gender and Nationality to be automatically filled into the fields on the 'DropIn_Input' from the relevant information in the 'Service Users' table.

Started a new thread: Rebuilt database and still working with auto number for multi user form. The code I have works for single user but not multi user. Also if someone opens the form and closes without adding anything to the form the number is used with blank record.
This is what I have thus far:
Private Sub Form_Current() Me.[PO] = Nz(DMax("[PO]", "tblPurchaseOrder"), 0) + 1
End Sub

Hi,
I've been working on a database to keep track of employee time off, It consists of the main table, a employee table, and a department table.
I had a form that our admin uses to enter the info for each employee.
They would select the name of the employee from a drop down, and then select the department that employee is in from another drop down. then they would select the days off and reason ect. Then when finished they would hit submit and this would be entered into the main table.
Well they just asked if it would be possible to make it so when they enter the employee's name, that the department would automatically be filled in for the employee.
Is this possible? I'm trying to think of how to do it, but not coming up with anything.
Thanks
Chris.

I have a database where multiple users log in and work in 1 of 2 different forms. The 1st form in for initial data entry where users enter data then senter there initials and save each record. the other form is for QC'ing data that has been entered and they will add additional data to the form, then enter their initials and save the record.
How can I make it so that I can have a user once they log in to the database, it will autofill their initials? I have used a dropdown box before but it is not useful for people who have the same first name initial or worst, the same first and second initial because they end up selecting the wrong initials.
I do not currently have it set up where I have a login screen, I just have only forms visible to users when they enter data. Any easiest way to go about making this happen (I am just trying to shorten the amount of data entry that gets done).

I have a table, at the table I'v got these fields:
ID | num1 | num2 | sum
I want that the user put numbers at 'num1' and 'num2' fields and then the 'sum' field will calculate automatically the operator (sum=num1+num2).
I've tried to put any combination at 'Default value' of the sum field (all the fields are numbers , also tried to change the sum field to text...nothing works).
I'm getting a message that 'num1' field is not recognize at the table
(I tried =[num1]+[num2], without the '=', num1.table+num2.table , ...nothing works)
I also tried to do it with SQL command but it dosn't work.
There is any way to do it, is it possible? Or other way to do it at least at Form or at Report ?

Basically i have developed a pricelist database and our reps need a printable pdf version of that available items and there attributes.
I have done some research and it appears that visual studio and crystal reports may be what I am looking for. This is an access web database that is accessed housed in sharepoint.

Installed Access 2003 recently and could swear that on a form in design view, sizing a control button for example, by holding down shift key, worked as I expected; it sized up or down by 1/4th of a grid line.
Today, I hold down shift and size a control, and it sizes up or down by one full grid line. Can't find anything in Options that I might have changed, nor in the Format menu.
Does anyone know what may have caused this?

I am creating a file and I am not stuck on the last part. I have to keep track of which numbers of a particular item is sold due to serial number tracking. Items are bundled in sets of 50 so I need to form to auto populate the next set of numbers (by 50) when I create a new line.
I found how to change my start number to 1751 but I can not find how to have a Begining number of 1751 Ending number 1800 and have the next line auto populate begin $ 1801 end # 1850. I have a feeling it will not be the Auto Number option and I am sure there is another way but I just can't find it.

I am new to the Access database building. I am trying to create a Student database for contact information, etc. I have a main table which stores all the users' data. When the student opens the database, I would like to identify the user. They should be able to view everyone's information, but only edit their own. How can i make this happen?
Also, if that is easy enough, I would like to identify when a staff member logs on. This way they can have special permissions to access a schedule searching feature, to look at all the students schedules.
Thanks for the help.

Good Morning,
Im trying to set an ODBC connection to automate the connection process.
The current code I have is:
Set wrkODBC = CreateWorkspace("NewODBCWorkspace", "admin", "", dbUseODBC)
MsgBox "Opening Connection...."
Set MainConn = wrkODBC.OpenConnection("Connection1", dbDriverPrompt, True, "ODBC;DATABASE=live; DSN=live;")
which works fine in bringing up a dialog box to choose the connection.
But what do i write in the database and dsn fields to enable the automation process.
See attached picture for the log in settings. All I have to do is press 'Connect' to start talking to the ODBC.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
Justin
