ACCDB Password
Feb 7, 2008hello, is it possible to programmatically set or change the password to an accdb file from within an application? (my app is written in VB 6)
i know this was possible in the old mdb format but what are the options for the new format? i must use the accdb format for security reasons.
thanks!
Recovery A Database With Replication
Nov 16, 2006I created replication through Access, but when one of the users try to update a record he was getting the message Record deleted. So i search the internet and found that the solution of this error message was to Compact and Repair the database. When i did that i lost the replication, and now i can't create it back because there records on the database and i am getting an error message.
Any suggestions how to recover the database? By the way is the master database not one of the replicas.
Is replication causes these kinds of malfunctions?
General :: Getting Rid Of Password On Opening All Database
Jul 11, 2014I was exploring using User-level permissions on databases so I, the admin, can have full permissions to edit/change etc. the database and certain users can only add/edit data. But I inadvertently have now set Access to ask me for a password for any db I open. Even if it's my own personal one. Can I set up Access to only ask for login info on certain db's, not all. I know that 2010 did away with User and group level permissions but was able to add it back through customizing the ribbon and adding this feature back to it.

Also, when I try to change my password it says invalid password and when I try to compact and repair my db it say invalid password.

Mar 3, 2013I am in the process of updating a database to 2010 (.accdb) and cannot get past a problem. We are using Access 2010.
I updated the back end data to .accdb with no problem. I can't link the front end to that data without updating the front end to .accdb as well. There are no tables in the front end.
I try to update the front end to /accdb and I get the error message 'You are trying to convert an encoded database. Decode the database, then try again.'
How do I decode the database? I tried setting a password and then unsetting it, but that made no difference. I have not previously encoded the database.
can't finish the update to .accdb data. The alternative is to stay with 2003 MDB data. Is that a bad thing?

General :: Split Accdb - How Many Backends
Dec 13, 2013We have a split A2010 accdb, and the backend is now 1.8Gb so I need to do something If I put each of the 4 main tables in 4 separate backend accdbs, will the fact that the frontend then needs to link to 4 accdbs in some way impact on performance? Another possibility (given that 90% of our work only needs the recent data) is that I split the 4 main tables into 'archive' and 'current' (= recent) tables, with all the 'archive' tables in one accdb and all the 'current' tables in another accdb: but that would make it more difficult to run reports etc over the entire data Putting the 4 main tables in 4 separate backend accdbs seems like the answer to me - but are there any other considerations to this.

View 13 Replies View RelatedPassword Issues With Non Protected Database Asking For Password
Nov 8, 2005Hi,
Firstly thank you for your help, this should be a simple one I hope, but is cracking my head on the wall. Have searched and searched and can't find an answer.
I have an Access Db that is not password protected, but is asking for a password.
It opens on any other machine fine?
I think my version of Access is playing funny buggers with me, any suggestions?
I was trying to implement some security on this Db, which is why it happened I'm sure. I ran the security wizard, set-up two users and admin with passwords, I have the output file to "recreate" something too.
Issue is, I then copied this Db to another computer for use on there, it worked without a Password, so didn't need to worry about it, now I can't open any Db on my machine??
Your help on this obvious pointer would be great!

General :: How To Secure Data In Separate ACCDB
Jan 27, 2015I'm building an application in MS Access 2010.
This application must be able to read from a big table in a separate accdb.
This separate accdb contains info that should NOT be available for all my users to copy, as it is valuable competitive information that could be abused by people with bad intentions. So, a linked table solution is not an option.
However, it should be possible to run parameterized queries that do simple look-ups that return only small/relevant portions of the database.
General :: Accdb Opens As A Copy Every Time
Jul 28, 2013I have Win7 Pro 64 bit and Office 2010 32 bit on my desktop machine. I have a laptop with Office 2007 and Win 7 Home Premium, 32 bit. I do NOT have Office 2010 SP1 because I heard there was some conflict between 2010 SP1 and Office 2007. I switch frequently between both (one on the desktop and one on the laptop).
I do not have this issue on the laptop ... they are both Win 7 64 bit, but the laptop has Home Premium and Office 2007 and the desktop has Office 2010 32 bit.
I converted some of my Access databases to the newer accdb from mdb format. The databases work fine on both computers. BUT, if I double click on the file or a shortcut to the file on the Win 7 Pro/2010 machine, a COPY of the file is opened and named "Filename1". If I double click again on the file or a shortcut to the file, then a different copy is opened and named "Filename2" (and this is a copy of the original "Filename", NOT the first copy "Filename1".) Of course, any changes I make to the file are saved in the new file name.
AND, if I double click on a copy, Then a NEW copy is made ..."Filename1" is copied to "Filename11"...The only way to open the original of the file is to select it and choose "open with ..." and Access.This does not happen with mdb files, or any other files that I can find. It also doesn't happen on the Win 7/2007 machine. It happens on every accdb file on the desktop machine, whether its a converted file (from mdb) or a brand new accdb file.I was ticked at my daughter for constantly creating "new" database files called Database, Database1, Database2, etc.! And she was frustrated because her changes were "never" saved ... they were, but not in the file she was clicking on.
Older daughter has a laptop with the same operating system (Win7 Pro, 64 bit) and the same version of Access 2010, 32 bit (installed from the same disk).I copied my file over to her computer and opened from Access, by double clicking in Explorer and by double clicking a short cut and it never duplicated the file. I did a repair of Microsoft Office on my desktop computer, using the install disk and that did not fix the problem. If I go to the Explorer right click on the file and choose "Open With" then, when the file opens, it is NOT duplicated. Or, if I open Access first and then open the file, it is not duplicated. So, maybe a file association problem? I changed the association to Excel.
I've been using this computer and Office 2010 since last July (2012).I discovered this problem in May and did some file checking and found copies of files created in February and forward ...
General :: How To Save Sharepoint ACCDB To Standalone Front-end
Feb 11, 2015I have a sharepoint database accdw which works well as I can update something and sync it to the server, and another user with the same database can receive the changes just by syncing.
However, I want to share a version of this database with a different start up form, some restricted forms etc. If I make a copy of the accdb it creates and make changes to that, it still synchronises those changes and they affect my own version.
What is the correct way to create a different database version from my accdw?
All I want to do is take the accdb it creates, change the startup form and give it to somebody to use.
General :: Package And Sign ACCDB - Digital Signature
Jan 29, 2014I have an accdb built using Access 2013 that will run with in 2010 Runtime. I am about ready to distribute the application, and am starting to do some research.
When I attempt to package and sign the db using the feature in Access 2013 it asks for me to "Confirm Certificate".
Before I go buy one I want to 1) try to create on myself and 2) learn about some good places to buy them.
1) I created a "Self-Signed" certificate using IIS, but the certificate doesn't show up on the list of certs when I attempt to package and sign the accdb. Is there a way to use a "Self-Signed" certificate to package my accdb?
2) If purchasing a SSL is the only option. Where is the best place to buy a SSL that I can use to package and sign accdbs from Access 2013?

View 1 Replies View RelatedBack-up And Recovery
Oct 12, 2005Hi,
I come with a mainframe background so please excuse me for my Ignorance on Ms-Access/VBA. :(
I am in the process of developing a solution using Access/VBA. I want to include custom Database Backup and Restore facility within my Application. :rolleyes:
For example:
Say I take a backup of the Database before the monthly update and store the backup (in a folder).
After the update, if a user thinks that the monthly update did not go as he was expecting (this could be because of the data that he fed into the application) - I want to give a option asking user if s/he want to rollback to a previous version of the database. (This will be similar to Windows SYSTEM RESTORE facility).
The Database sits on a network drive (mostly this would be used by one user for the update part and may be 1-2 users who would be viewing the reporpts that come out of it)...So I can safely say it is a stand-alone, single user system.
What I would to ask your help is on following.
1. While my application is running how do I do the restore?
Or do I have to have a seperate application which performs this (ie., restore/backup) operation?
2. While my application is running, Can I take a backup copy of the Entire Database?
Any other hints/help regarding this would be much appreciated. :)
TIA,
PW.
General :: Forms And Queries In One ACCDB File - Path Setting To Linked Table File
Oct 5, 2014I've got the forms and queries in one .accdb file and my tables in a separate .accdb file. The forms file links to the tables in the tables file. The tables file resides in a folder called simply enough C:acc_tables and thats where i browsed to (obviously) when i set up the linkage.
One of the users does not wish (for whatever goddamn reason) to create a C:acc_tables file to stick the tables file in , and wants the tables file in some other folder.. Unfortunately this user does not have the skills to delete the existing links and re-link to the tables file after putting it in the folder he wants.
Where in the file that holds the forms and and queries do i find the path setting to the tables linked file? Can it be changed without deleting links and then re-linking?
Join Database With Password
Jan 3, 2006Hi, I have the SQL query below where I am JOINing two tables for two different databases. Both databases are password protected.
Query from MS Access
SELECT T2.cl_ser_id AS Expr1, T2.cl_idno AS Expr2, T2.cl_name AS Expr3, T2.cl_surname AS Expr4, TL.SiteRef, TL.Date, TL.Time, FROM [db2.mdb].tablenames AS T2, [db1.mdb].TransactionLog AS TL
My problem is accessing the second database from the first one.
db2.mdb is password protected !
If I remove the password from the second database.. the query works perfectly. Although due to security reasons, both databases must be password prtected.
Thank you for your help.. as always :D
