I have a table called tblDeliveryOverview and a table called tblPurchaseOverview in the relationship there is no link between each other but i've used a query to link the one field from tblDeliveryOverview to tblPurchaseOverview.
How can i prevent a record update from happening when i update a record in tbleDeliveryOverview and the same gets updated in tblPurchaseOverview, which i don't want to happen.
I have built a database and within it my queries I use for reporting make tables in a separate database. This allows me to work in my data base and update info as needed. My problem is that my make table queries wont run if anyone has one of the report pivot tables open. I have added macros to all the Excel files that pull from the reporting DB but I still have several times when I cannot update because someone is using the pivot table, Is there a way to allow me to update the report DB's while the pivot tables are open? I have tried using manual refresh methods and disabling auto update on open but the result is the same.

I have a way in which they send me their name,lastname and email. I then have a separate db that genertates a code based on a maths calculation. The users db does same calc. Then a comparison is done. if they match the code they entered goes green. if codes not right it goes red.
I also have macro that swap tables round when run. so by default its limted to 10 records. When swapped its unlimted.
I just cant link the 2 functions. Ideally some way it will see the green code and then run the macro to swap tables to a full db.
Then the customer has a full db and is also tied to their name etc...
Is there away in which I can protect an access 2007 database modification with a password.I'm doing this because I would like to prevent my client from modifying or having acces to the database's back end system (db), I would just like him to use forms and nothing else.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a split database. I have secured the mde sufficiently but I need to secure the back end so that no one could link to tables in it. If I introduce a password to the back end is this going to require those using front end to supply the password? If not then this could be good solution.
As the database is on the network drive, is there any other way to prevent people to link to the db? Can I hide the db in the network drive? Or should I hide tables in the BE. Should these still be available to be linked?

i need to link my db to my excel.

please help. i need it very badly.

Twice a year, a database of mine is accessed and put too use by various staff within a time range of 1 week. the database is on a shared drive and in a location which can be accessed by all.
The staff access the database from different workstations and in some instances at the same time.
This has only led to issues in the database being copied and then confusing staff on what database to click on thus i have 2 databases which i then have to sift through and copy/paste into the correct one.
I want to know the best way i can:
1) Prevent multiple users accessing the database at a time.
2) making a copy of the original and typing into a separate database.
i want to create a link to access table with excel file when i change any value in excel it update in access automatic
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
Does anyone have any ideas on how I might prevent a database from being copied. I have an application that I have set up with a number a tools to prevent exporting to an empty Access container, and from accessing the database design via the ShiftBypass feature, but the database can still be copied in its entirety. In some situations I would like to be able to add a feature to prevent this. Any suggestions?

Hi,
I created the database, which shared by multi-user. But, my user have a problem to open it. When user1 open the database, user2 cannot open it, I did not remember the error message, it is said that Admin (computer name) prevent you to open the database. But, if the user1 switch another application program (the database file is still opened), user2 can open the database, then both users can access the same database file.
Why do we have this problem? How can I fix it?
I need some code that checks if i already opened the database. I can't use the /EXCL option because 10+ people are also using it.
I had this code when working with Acc97 but i seem to have lost it.:(
I had created a database a number of months back and received.After getting halfway through and seeing some requests come through from management on what they want to see or improvements, it looks as though there will have to be some retooling done to the database like moving some fields to different tables as there is duplicate entry fields.Would you import all the tables into a new database and then append the data to where it needs to go or keep working within the one I have?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have set up a database that each user will put on their own computer, as it builds a running list made specifically for that user of chosen items to be exported to Excel, and because the remote locations have issues when accessing a shared network.
The db verifies the network user ID against a table to allow it to open. This to prevent any unauthorized user from accessing, and if db was copied or forwarded, only authorized users could see the data.
If the user is not on the list, it advises "Not an Authorized User", then exits Access. (I disabled the shift on opening, hid navigation bar, etc.) When further testing this security, I realized that even though users can access only the forms that I allowed, if they were to open another Access db, they could link or import the main table.
So all of my security precautions are for naught, as anyone with access to the db could see the confidential data. Even if they were not valid users, they could still get to the data if they knew how to import from another db. Is there any way to lock down the main table, so that it cannot be exported? Or be imported into another database?
On Microsoft Access 2010, I am creating a database project for a DJ booking system (not for professional use) and wondered how you can stop double booking from occurring that would provide you with an error message that I could personalize.
My current booking file looks like this:
Booking ID - Primary Key
Customer ID (Linked to customer table)
Venue ID (Linked to venue table)
Date Booked
Set Up Time
Start Time
Finish Time
Party Type
Discount Code
At the moment I have the date booked as Indexed (No Duplicates) however this gives me a long error message that I can not personalise.
Access 2010...
I don't want to allow more than one instance of (HolDte) for the same EmployeeID

Exit Sub
End If
I have a mainform (F_main) and a subform associated (F_place).
F_place is the form of the table T_place.
T_place is linked to F_main by the field "BizNumber". I also have the field "Place" and of course the "Place ID" (primary key) in T_place.
"Place" in linked to a combobox (in F_place).I want to avoid, at a given "BizNumber", the same "place" to be entered in the F_place.
Is there a way to prevent Access from the absurd notion it needs to concatenate 'DBO_' as prefix to tables linked from SQL Server db? :mad:
Thanks.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm learning how to do Many to Many relationships and I think I've got the basic idea down, I am just not sure how to prevent the same 2 records from being associated twice.
For example:
My practice database deals with Authors and Books.
I was able to set it up so that Mike Gunderloy and Susan Harkins are both Authors of the book: "Upgrader's Guide to Microsoft Office System 2003".
I was also able to set it up so that Mike Gunderloy and Susan Harkins are both Authors of the book: "Automating Microsoft Access 2003 with VBA".
The thing I want to prevent is something like this:
Book:
- Automating Microsoft Access 2003 with VBA
Authors:
- Mike Gunderloy
- Susan Harkins
- Susan Harkins (Duplicate)
And vise versa
Hello,
My access skills aren't as good as my Excel skills. I am trying to convert a large uwieldy set of Excel spreadsheets into a more manageable database.
Part of my Excel sheets use logical arguments - so they interrogate a cell and if there are two of three results another cell reports 'yes', if not a 'no'.
I have set up a matching table in Access but don't know how to, if I can, get Access to evaultae a field result from data entered ito another cell.
In one cell the data entered will either be H, M or L. I want another cell to report Yes if H or M are present in the other field and 'No' if not.
Is this possible, I'm pulling my hair out and I want to get away from using Excel.
Thanks,
Fraser
I am supposed to make a database for a hotel system, how I could prevent double bookings.
My Reservation Table has the following fields:
Reservation No. (PK)
Room No. (FK)
Customer ID (FK)
Payment ID(FK)
Reservation In Date
Reservation Out Date
Together with preventing double bookings is there a way automatically that can mark in the Room Table, the status as "available" or "booked" automatically by looking at the date today?
I'd like to to import some large oracle tables from a remote server using "DoCmd.TransferDatabase..." on a daily basis. Currently, the system works, but my database is getting quite large (800 Mb) and I'd like to split off the tables to a back end database.
Is there a way to import directly to the back end database? The postings that I've seen seem to imply that one must first import the tables into my front end, then export them into the back end. Does that sound correct?
I'm at home right now, but will give it a try when I get to work. It just seems like there's got to be a more direct way!

I have a database with a front end and back end (tables on the server) that was recently converted from Access 2003 to Access 2010.
For some reason the back end keeps hanging and I have to constantly compact and repair and there has been major data loss on a regular basis.
I want to lock archive records so that they can't be edited, however I want them available to users for viewing. So for example if the file is "closed" the record can not be changed.
