General :: Not A Valid Password Error
Jul 23, 2012
I am trying to link some tables to my front end and the tables are within an encrypted and password protected database.
When I link the tables, it asks me for the passwork which I enter and the tables do get linked to the fron end..
However when I try to attach the table to a combo box or try to open the tables I get a message which says "Not a Valid Password"
So it does allow me to link the tables with the required password but when I try to open the linked tables it gives me the above error.
I am using Access 2010..

It seems I've overstepped in setting up Users and Permissions, in MS Access 2007, on an .mdb. When I enter any of the user names and passwords I've created, I'm told that it's not a valid account name or password. I'm wondering how this could be possible since I'm staring at them in the Snapshot file.
My question is this: I can access the .mdw file as "Admin", is there anyway to unwind this mess?

I have recently split my database and added a password to the back end. I am now trying to re-link the tables as I have seen in other threads, but when I do this I am not prompted for the password I just get the message 'Not a valid password'
I must obviously be doing something wrong, can anyone help?

I have a sub form in a tabbed control that collects client income data. A subform of that [Tax table calc frm] calculates the tax payable and the following code displays the result in the [c1TaxMedi] and [c2taxmedi] fields on the income form.
Private Sub Command122_Click()
'Calculate taxation on income
[Tax Table Calc Frm].Form.Refresh
Me.C1TaxMedi = Form![Tax Table Calc Frm].Form![Text58]
Me.C2TaxMedi = Form![Tax Table Calc Frm].Form![Text70]
End Sub
The problem is that when I put data in the clients wages field then click the command button I get an error message "Run-Time error-2147352567(80020009) The value you entered isn't valid for this field.
When I go into debug the line Me.C1TaxMedi = Form![Tax Table Calc Frm].Form![Text58] is highlighted. If I don't do anything except close the debug window and return to the form the currency is display correctly in wages and if I press the command button again I get the tax to display without any errors.
I cannot fathom what is wrong with this code to get this effect.
Help appreciated Thanks.
Ooops realised I've posted in wrong category, don't know how to move it.M apologies.

Hi all,
one of the databases at my place has started acting really strange and was wondering if anyone knows what could possibly be wrong?
there's only one big tble holding about 7.5 k records with approx 10 fields
info that was entered yesterday has now been deleted (by access?) and when you scroll down or go down to the end records, all those records that were there yesterday now show either #error or #deleted and then an error popup appears saying "Not Valid Bookmark"
The UID doesn't appear to be working either, i.e it's not incrementing properly?
any ideas?

I'm creating a database with an Asset register which gives you a simple route to documents related to these perticular assets. My problem is when linking to Excel files. I use the FollowHyperlink method and reference to a Hyperlink in a row of the table. If this Hyperlink happens to be to an excel file (regardless of version) it generates an error stating "Reference is not valid". The odd thing is that the file opens, but is not maximised on opening. I have searched for weeks for a solution but can only find them for Pivot Table problems in excel.
My code is simply;
Private Sub FormName_ObjectName_Click()
On Error Resume Next
Application.FollowHyperlink [ColumnName]
End Sub
This works fine for any file that isn't an excel file. So my question is, what's missing or what needs changing to prevent the error from appearing. I have tried different compatabilities but have had no luck. I also tried a function called GoHyperlink, but had no luck in Access 2007.

I have recently created a db for a large Printing operation in our company. Previously, the process was all paper-based and extremely inefficient, so obviously this is a huge step in the right direction.
Upon completing the db and providing a demo to the staff, I saved a copy to a shared folder on the network for them to access (.accdb file). We've done this with other dbs before, but with smaller groups (3-4 people). With this db, since there will be anywhere up to 15 people that may want to access it at the same time, the db started crashing during the first phase of pilot testing this week.
I did some more research and found that the db should be split.the users can't open the db anymore.I have a Printing Services shared drive in which created an "Administrator" folder for the back-end (the front-end is in the same location as that folder). When I split the db, I select the back-end location to be within the Administrator folder.
TrackerAdministrator OnlyOS Tracker_be.accdb" is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.I know that the file path is valid, b/c I selected it specifically when using the wizard to create it, and I know that the staff have access to the shared drive as they had to open it in order to gain access to the front-end. Plus, it's working for me when I try to open it, just not the others.

I have created a text box for people to enter search criteria, e.g. customer surname. The results appear in a list box underneath. When I select the record it should open up the customer's details but in Access 2013 it produces an error "The value you entered isn't valid for this field". The first sub-routine pulls the search data into a Row Source:
Private Sub txtCustomerSearch_Change()
On Error GoTo Err_txtCustomerSearch_Change Dim strSource As String strSource =
"SELECT DistinctRow CustomerNo, [End Date], Surname, FirstName, Address1,

I am attempting to split an Access 2007 database. My company has two locations. From my location we are remote connecting into the server. While down there they are connecting directly. When I split the database, people in my location can use it fine. When people down there use it, they get a not valid path error.
This is because the network drives are mapped differently. I have been reading that the solution is to use the UNC for the back end file path.

"The value you entered isn't valid for the field 'ID'.
For example, you may have entered text in a numeric field or a number that is greater than the FieldSize setting permits.
This error happens when i try to filter my results and select the topic I wanna search for. The field size is almost double what my longest field is. I am trying to do is from a table i used a lookup wizard to search that table for all the topics under that table.

I have developed a database in Microsoft Access 2013. I wish to install and run that database on another machine on which I have already installed the MS Access Runtime.
In order to allow the database to run correctly on the target machine, I need to add two Trusted Locations - one for the front-end database and another for the back-end database.
The folder paths on the runtime machine are different to those on the development machine, so how do I add Trusted Locations (on my development machine) which remain valid when the database is copied to the target machine?
Must I trick it by simply creating an identical, dummy folder structure on the development machine (would this even work?), or is there a more elegant way?

I was using this form tutorial to password protect my administrative tools. When I went to run it I received this:
"User defined type not defined" and the line Dim rs As DAO.Recordset was highlighted.
I have little experience with VB and I was wondering if someone here had any idea if it was their code that was wrong, or if it was something I did...

I am looking at the public function routine, that validates the password entry. I want to know how i can make a message pop up with the specific error the user has made on entry.
Public Function ValidatePwd(varPassword As Variant) As Boolean
Dim blnValid As Boolean
Dim blnValidCriteria As Boolean
Dim intChar As Integer
blnValid = Len("" & varPassword) >= 4 And Len("" & varPassword) <= 12

I 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.

When trying to set a password I receive the following message.
You must have the database open for exclusive use to set or remove the database password.
To open the database exclusively, close the database, and then reopen it by clicking the File tab and using the Open command, In the Open dialog box, click the arrow next to the Open button and then select Open Exclusive.
When I follow the instructions, I don't get a dialog box. How do I set a password?

OK, I tried to see if this was possible but not finding much of an answer. So I figured I'd check with our merry band of experts if it even is.
I'm using Access 2013 and I have a database I would like everyone to be able to see but only those that have a password to be able to change data.
Is there a way to even to do this? A code somewhere maybe?
I've been able to find the option to make the whole database password protected but that's not what I'm looking for.

I have to do this and I believe there is VBA code to re-link tables when needed that can be found on the web. My client needs access to everything because he will move on to another developer after this, so what I thought I would do is send him a private file that has the password for the backend and then just write the ADO code needed in the app's front end to connect with the password.

I've been working on a large project for my employer for a year now (but software development isn't part of my normal day to day duties). Most of the work (around 70%) has been done in my own time at home. The company were going to buy a system that would be customized by developers at a cost of around $60,000. I've developed a solution that is probably better than what they would have got. At my last appraisal my boss said that it had been discussed that i would be rewarded if i delivered it. My question is:
Is it possible to password protect access to the source code? I'm working with Access 2003 just now. I know I can create a .mde file to prevent access to the source code but that would make further development difficult. e.
