General :: Unable To Set Password - Open Dialog Box

Mar 2, 2015

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?

General :: Open Read Only / Password To Modify

May 6, 2014

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.

Relink Database With Common File Dialog In Access 2007 W/Password Protection

Jan 9, 2008

All -

Just as the title describes, I can't seem to find a solution to be able to link the front-end to the back-end tables through the common file dialog when the backend is an accdb file that is password encrypted.

See the example attached. Here it should work just fine per the Article at :

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/181076

I've found it works fine without a password encrypted back-end but not with a password encrypted back-end.

Anyone have any ideas? It would be nice to use this feature in Access as well as automating the relinking.

Thanks!

Forms :: Unable To Set Password Protection On A Combobox

May 25, 2013

I am trying to set password protection on a combobox where there are only a few people who I want to be able to select their name to provide authorisation. I found the below code on a website and modified it slightly for my table (tbl_Approval) that contains two fields; Approver and Password. I can see how the code is supposed to work however I keep getting a syntax error (missing operator) in query expression on line: Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(sql).

Code:
Private Sub Approved_By_Enter()
Dim pwd As String
Dim rs As Object, rstable As Object, count As Integer, counter As_ Integer
Dim sql As String, recount As Integer
sql = "SELECT * " & "FROM [tbl_Approval] " & "WHERE [Approver]= " & Me.Approved_By
Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(sql)

[Code]...

Open File Dialog

Another question:

I used the suggested code from this forum to import a file with the open file dialog box. It works great to that point, but how do I specify which table I want it to populate with this data?? Thanks!

Print Current Record - Open Printer Dialog Box

May 19, 2014

I want to put a print button on my data entry form that prints the current record in a report that is laid out all nice and pretty. I found this code that works, but it goes straight to the printer - it does not bring up the printer dialog so you can select a printer.

Code:
Private Sub RecordPrint_Click()
Dim strWhere As String
If Me.Dirty Then
Me.Dirty = False
End If

[Code] ....

How do I get it to bring up the printer dialog?

Users Unable To Open Database

Feb 25, 2008

I have two databases that have been split, and both back ends are in a shared folder on the server that only a few people have authorization to access. One of the front ends is accessed off another shared folder, and the other is saved to each person's desktop. They have been up and running for months, and I've had no problems with users not being able to access data from the back end.

The other day, I requested access to this protected folder for four people, which was granted. But, since the time it was granted, neither database will open unless the user has authorization to access the protected folder. They get an error that says the database is already opened exclusively or they don't have authorization to view its data.

I've created another test db and split it into the same folder, but my users are getting the same error.

Any help you can provide would be much appreciated.

Thank you,
Mike

Unable To Open ODBC Data Sources

Aug 5, 2006

Hi, I'm trying to connect to SQL Server Express from MS Access 2003.

I've created an ODBC data source and tested it within the ODBC Wizard. It successfully connects to the SQL Server database.

From within MS Access, I choose File > Get External Data > Import and I'm presented with a dialogue for choosing the data source. As soon as I choose ODBC from the Files of Type drop-list, the dialogue disappears. No error-message, nothing!

Has anyone else had this problem?

Forms :: Unable To Open A Report With Subreports

Nov 26, 2013

I am trying to open a report (with subreports) from a form. When the report opens, I want the form to hide, which most of the time does. Sometimes, though, it won't hide when the report opens. So, I even created an error handler, and moved that part of the code to SubExit section, but the problem still occasionally occurs. Here is my code:

Code:
Dim strWhere As String
Dim strDate As String
Dim strDist As String
On Error GoTo ErrHandler
strDate = "=DateSerial(" & Year(Me.txtAsOfDate) & "," & Month(Me.txtAsOfDate) & "," & Day(Me.txtAsOfDate) & ")"
strWhere = "YearEnd = " & Year(Me.txtAsOfDate) - 1

[Code]...

Open A Password Protected Database

Jun 22, 2007

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,
-Vije
