I have MS access database. The database is password encrypted. I do not own this database but it is critical for me to see the contens of this database. I do not want to edit the contents.
View RepliesI do not have a split db. I am prompted to enter my password when the db opens which is fine. However, when I close the db it prompts me to enter a password (not normal) and when I enter it it says invalid password. 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.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI greatly appreciate your help on 2 issues:
1/ At work, I have Access 2000 application residing on a Novel server for multiusers purpose. Everyday, occasionally, the application is locked out by whoever opens first (I think?). Some of other users could not open it since it has the message like "locked out by a particular (computer name)...". Therefore the user of that computer name needs to close the application so others can open it. This issue is not happen in Access 97 as we used that version before and it is not consistent happening, so I could not find the pattern or know why?? Please let me know if you have seen this problem and how to prevent it...
2/ Do we have a way to trigger or initiate GroupWise email inside an Access 2000 application. For example, if a purchase order is created in Access 2000 application, I want to email a co-worker...OR it can be automatically sent an email to my supervisor for notifying the purchase order so he can approve it?
Thanks so much in advance for all the helps...

Hi,
I'm trying to convert a access database in to a sql server. My client hasn't got the exclusive access or doesn't have a username password for the access database. I'm trying to import the data in the access to sql server and when I try to open it it says
"
This error is usually associated with opening or converting a security enhanced Access 97 or earlier database. If you are not the owner of the database, you most likely will not have the necessary access rights to open or convert it.
"
Is there a way around this.
Cheers,

I am trying to open a database with a password (I know the password) from another database however I cannot work out how to do it. I have been using this code to do this to open databases without passwords for a while.
I am using Access 2007.
Code:
Private Sub Command36_Click()
Const cstrClientFEPath = "G:Templates"
Const cstrFEFile = "db.accdb"
Dim intX As Integer 'Utility var
[Code] ....
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.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got a database that is locked down for all users with forms so they can navigate the system and the navigation pane is hidden. On a couple of the forms there are buttons to print the form and when that button is clicked it unhides the navigation pane...???
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am currently using Access 2010, and have successfully split a database, using the Access wizard.However, whenever a second or third user opens the database - with their front-end database file - they encounter the following message;The Microsoft Access Database engine cannot open or write to the file ". It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view and write its data.
I have researched the internet and see that it has something to do with network permissions. I have worked with my IT department and this appears to be resolved!
Is there a setting I need to check in the front-end and/or back-end copies of the databases?Why is there no file name in the error message?
I have a MS Access 97 database that seems to be locked. I wish to update it but I cannot open it as a regular file. When it is opened, there is no way to edit the database or access any of the controls that are usually present. The tool bars are even different.
Any idea?
Thanks,

I am completely locked out of my Access Database!
Basically, I have 3 forms which have all got the properties set to DISALLOW right clicking on them to prevent users accessing the design of the form, they all have code behind them so that they cover the entire screen and block ALL menus/shortcuts apart from those available on the form and I have set up a command button on each form which is password protected to ONLY allow Admins to access the design/backend of the form/database when they enter a valid password.
However, I was playing around with the settings of all these forms and have inadvertantly locked myself out, the last thing I remember doing was setting up a "Password" form to collect the Administrator password which had code attached to allow access to the database design. This was working fine until I tried "tweaking" it and now whenever I input the CORRECT password, I get the error message;-
"Error 2585: This action can't be carried out while processing a Form or Report event"
If I enter an INCORRECT password, I get the standard "Login Failed-Please try again" form that I have set up.
The "Password" form doesn't have an override/Cancel (I wanted to make it REALLY secure) it means that although I can use the database fine for entering/editing information/data within the database when it first opens, as soon as I want to make changes to the design and try to log in with "Admin" privellages using my custom made "Password" form, it then pops up with the password screen and goes no further.
I do have a backup of this database BEFORE I set up the "Password" security to collect the "Admin" Password but I can't remember the code I used and although I can work it out again, it will take me a LONG time to work it out again. So I was wondering if any of you might have some ides or a workaround I could try to gain back "Admin" rights to my database.
Does this makes sense? As stated I do have a backup so if all else fails I'm going to have to try to remember how I got it working in the first place BEFORE I cocked it up but if any of you could save me the trouble that would be very much appreciated!
Thank you very much

I really hope somebody can help me... I put a password on the VBA code in an Access 2000 database. It's been a long time ago and now I have forgotten the password. I need to modify something urgent in that code, but it is locked now. I don't know the password anymore.
Is there some way to gain access to the VBA code again???
Please if you know a solution I would be very thankful!

Hi, I have been opening password protected access 2003 databases with ASP / ADO for years now. However now we have updated to office 2007 everything gone bottoms up.
I have an access 2007 database (newly made, not converted from 2003), and a fresh asp page. I've gotten the new connection string information for Access 2007 from the internet yet the page cannot open the database.
connection string being used:
sConnString="Provider=Microsoft.ace.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=" & strPath & ";Jet OLEDB:Database PASSWORD= password"
When I try to open the page the error i get is - "Not a valid password" - 80040e4d. I'm 100% sure the password is correct, the driver is right (the server has office 2007 installed, and the new access driver from the M$ website). Every page i've seen on the internet says that the code I'm using is correct, yet asp still can't open it.
If i remove the password from the database it opens fine, so it's not a corrupt database, or bad path in the code.
If you can shed any light on my problem I would be eternally grateful - been working on it for hours now!
Many thanks
Ryan

I need to schedule the opening of a MS Access database which is password protected.
I think the best way to do this would be to use schedule a batch process to run, can anyone help with the script to create a batch proccess to only OPEN and CLOSE an MS Access database?
Thanks
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.

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.
