General :: How To Save Sharepoint ACCDB To Standalone Front-end
Feb 11, 2015
I 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.

I 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?

So I have finished a database and split it which is great. Only issue now is how do I turn the front end into an executable so no access to any parts of the access program or system can happen? I have done this before in a very old version of access but how to do it in Access 2013.

I have an Access 2007 database which has a form on which is a button to dial the currently selected phone number. All works fine. My intention is to send out partial databases to people not having access installed and they will use the access runtime module.
When the same database is run using the runtime it does not dial and does not give an error message. It just stays the same as though I didn't press the dial button.

I have a (Access Data Project) ADP project which was created in Access 2003.I need to convert it into an ACCDB file with Access 2007. How to do this besides exporting each and every table, query,report etc one by one ? I was hoping there was something where I could import or export the whole thing in one go.

Is there an easy way to convert an old ACCESS db from version 2003 to version 2010?
My ACCESS db is .mdb and I want to convert it to .accdb as version 2010. It has hundreds of modules that may take awhile to export. Exporting is the only way I know to transfer from one db to another.

I have MS Access on my PC however wish to move the accdb file to a network location to allow other network users to have access to it.
Unfortunately a few of the other users do not have MS Access. Is it possible for them to still open the database without any admin or background - I would like them to be able to use the forms and 'front end'.

We 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.

I have a database with extension .accdb. When I open it, everything is locked. I can't access VB Editor, Navigation Pane, Ribbon, nothing. It just opens a form and the only thing that can be edited are the text boxes on the form. I can't use Shift when opening it, that does nothing. It does not prompt for a password when opening.

Now left with one more thing, is it possible to disable anyone trying to import stuff from my database?
Maybe some code or is there a setting somewhere in current db?

I'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.

I 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 ...

I 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?

I have a number of Excel spreadsheets (data sources) hosted on Sharepoint that I need to link to one single Access database.
At first. I cannot link the spreadsheets directly to Access because Access cannot read the spreadsheets on SharePoint to make the links.
Secondly, I can export the spreadsheets from SharePoint to a local folder on my PC and keep them 'refreshed'. The problem with this is that I cannot link Access to the local refreshed spreadsheets because of the (auto) extention .iqy. Access does not know the extention .iqy and hence the two cannot be linked at all.
Thus: How do I link an Excel spreadsheet hosted on SharePoint to MS Access.

I just published an access database to sharepoint. However, after I set some user as contributor, those users can see structure of my database, and export tables to excel directly. Is there anyway that we can remove the access to "Setting"?

I currently have the following setup for my database which is working as desired when only being used by one user at a time:
Front end: Access 2010 database in Citrix
Back end: SharePoint List
The problem is that only one user can open the Access Database at a time since this action locks the database for other potential users. The locking occurs due to this link to the back end SharePoint list.
allow multiple users to update the SharePoint list through the access database at the same time?

I'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?

I have just delivered my front end to the user. I have incorpoated a splash screen which uses the timer event and then a sign-in form opens. Trouble is, when the user opens the FE it just sits there on the splash screen. The Access security won't let the above process run because it stops all VBA until the user shift-starts and clicks the 'allow' button. After that it all works fine until I deliver an updated version and it all starts again. All using A2010. what I need to do to avoid the user having to shift-start?

Currently the system where I work is set up so that everyone has their own front end on the local network. I would like to change this because updating all of them takes a lot of time for me and skill level for users is too low for me to trust them with updating it on there own.
My question is this:
If I were to create a shortcut on everyone's desktop that linked to one front end would this be wise? I can't seem to get a straight answer from anywhere on the internet. I know most places say that it is better to have the actual front end on the staffs computer but that would make my job of keeping the database updated even worse because staff have multiple computers and this isn't my full time job.
If this is okay practice how many users would this be able to sustain? Currently we only have 6 users on the database with there own front end and it works great. I am planning on adding around 10 more users in the future but if needed they could have there own database as they are separate programs.
