I try to get an ASP file work with Access database and I get this error:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers- Error '80004005'
Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error 126 (Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)).
I tried everything and nothing - and the configuration of this driver doesn't work...
How do I fix this driver??
I just recently noticed that the database that I have been working on has changed from around 60 mb to 430 mb. I added a few queries and forms. But could that really add to the size that much?
View 9 Replies View RelatedGuys, my database have 7 fields and 690 thousands of lines.
When I resort, for exampe by date field, the database on my P4-3.2 with 1gb memory, on Access 2003 with XPpro freezes and does not respond at all!!!
On my old P3-866 512mb with Win2k it was working! After 3 minutes the computer was getting back.... But now.... I waited for 20 minutes. The access doesnt load not a CPU, and no IO readswrites are done - it simply stops responding.
What can we do with it? Why the perfomance is SO LOW?!
Hi,
I have a huge databse with a form, showing record info. If I use a search button to search the databse it takes ages to find the record.
The quickest way is to find the record by hand, find the record number, copy that, and paste it into the form and hit enter.
Does anyone have any ideas how i can speed thing change over up.
Thanks

One of our key customers (GE) has demanded that we begin to submit our estimates in their transmission 160 character format.
Basically it it a txt file that looks like this all on one line.

Only a couple of those characters are in my database and will change. Other than that items will continously be the same. The items that are optional and we don't have not only have to be blank but have to have spaces there instead...not 0's.
How do I set up a query to kick all of this out? I tried something like:
GEString:2UPRR YYMM00&""&WorkOrderID yada, yada, yada
but it didn't work....any ideas? I also need the YYMM to be the current year/month and I have to pull the decimals out of the estimated billing costs.
Is there a better way to do this? As you can imagine...typing 5+ pages of this for each job would be a NIGHTMARE!
I inherited a database from someone else which has about 9000 records.
When sorted, one can see that the AutoNumbering starts at about 72K...then after a while there is a jump to about 134K...then after some more records the AutoNumber suddenly goes up to about 396K.
Does anyone know the most likely reason(s) that the numbering is like this?
Thanks in advance.
I have a form that contains a field for file box numbers, and a field for two different box numbers. I have a check box set up for the data entry person to check when the box if full of files. I need the the box numbers to increment by 1 for the two different box colors when the check box is = yes. Can this be done?
View 4 Replies View Relatedi've just delivered my program to my client and there are 2 MAJOR bugs.
bug 1: the first time program is opened, everything works fine. it goes to the switchboard, etc., everything's cool. however, if he closes the program (i think he closed it using the red X) and tries to get back in, only one item on the switchboard shows up from that point on. the thing is, this problem DOESN'T HAPPEN ON MY COMPUTER so i have no way of even attempting to figure this out. the way i have my program set up is i have an interface and a BE and an .mdw file all in the same folder. i've created a shortcut that uses a workgroup switcher so that he can open the program and use it w/the .mdw file.
i have no idea what could possibly be causing this to happen. i would think that the switchboard would open correctly every time.
bug 2: this one does happen on my computer.
setup: i have frmCustomers (outer form) with sfrmJobs (subform) with a subform inside of that named sfrmFinances. Everything in frmCustomers works fine, and everything in sfrmJobs works fine. The primary key (JobID) in sfrmJobs is entered manually. After the JobID is entered, sfrmFinances is accessible. sfrmFinances' control source is qryFinances, which has a few fields from tblJobs (control source for sfrmJobs). frmCustomers is linked to sfrmJobs by CustomerID and sfrmJobs is linked to sfrmFinances by JobID.
problem: a new customer is entered in frmCustomers. a job number is entered for the new job in sfrmJobs (JobID). the user then attempts to update a field (any field, but for example, ContractPrice) and a window pops up and says, "Field cannot be updated". you click ok and it pops up again, at least 10x in a row. then it finally lets you enter data, but when you try to save the record, it pops up with another window that says,
"The changes you requested to the table were not successful because they would create duplicate values in the index, primary key, or relationship. Change the data in the field or fields that contain duplicate data, remove the index, or redefine the index to permit duplicate entries and try again."
excuse me?? how could there possibly be duplicate data??? the funny thing is tho, when the user closes the form, and then opens it back up and tries to enter financial data w/the same customer, it allows it.
???????
The first bug is more important than the second one, but any advice or ideas on either are EXTREMELY appreciated. thank you very much in advance.

Hi all,I'm in a bit of a dilemma here. We currently have an mdb which includes a form and 4 tables. The entire mdb is around 800 megs. What we used to do is distribute this mdb to users in completely different locations on a CD, but now it has become to large for a cd to hold. Our manager wants us to figure out a way to distribute this mdb using only 1 cd, without zipping it. How would i go about doing that? Is there currently an installer, that can download the database from our ftp site and then insert the tables, or is there any other easier way i can get this done? P.s. The database will likely get larger and larger every yearThanks in advance
View 14 Replies View RelatedHere is the scenario:
I have a bunch of people with laptops who go on reviews throughout the state and leave reports on site with the facilities they review. They go out in multiple person teams and work together on reviews. Currently, each person types out their own citations in MS Word on their own computer, saves them to a flash drive and then the facilitator compiles them all together and prints out a report. Then the facilitator comes back to the office, provides their support staff a copy of the report, and then the support staff finalizes it and sends out a letter.
Unfortunately, none of our laptops have Internet capability out in the field.
My idea is to have a multi-user split main database that is stored at our main office. This is for the support staff to store all of the reports. Then I propose to have a local copy of the database (much smaller) on each of the laptops.
Here are my questions:
Lets say that 3 people are out on review together. They each have their entry form on their own computer. The form will be sending information to a few different tables. How can they easily export out their results so that the facilitator could easily import them into their database on their computer.
If all of that were to work somehow, how could the facilitator easily export out the review information tables so that the support staff could import them into the main database.
One of the many stumbling blocks I see relates to Primary keys. The main database will have a main table with a PK of 2008.100 for example. While out on review the reviewers will not be able to use the naming conventions of the main database PK. They might use something like the City name and date (Pensacola02222008). Could that PK be automatically switched into the other format upon import?
Let me know ya'lls thoughts. I have been trying to get my head around this for a few days and have not been able to come up with a feasible solution.
Thanks in advance.
I am upgrading a .mdb to MSSQL. The .mdb is 17MB, but the resulting MSSQL is 72MB. Tried using both the Access Upsizing Wizard and Enterprise Manager DTS. I have done this a number of times before, but never ran into this problem. Any ideas what coule be going on, and how to fix it?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'd read a few places that embedding pics wasnt the greatest of ideas, but I thought that 1 JPG embedded onto 2 forms would be ok and would prevent the pic from being deleted or moved. (Theyre always screwing with the server here.) But it's making my DB huge.
No pics embedded
Size: 808kB
1 Pic Embedded into 2 forms

Is this normal? I could understand a 156k pic adding somewhere around 156k to my DB, but 134 megs? Anyone have any insight?
We have a huge report in our company that includes all our customers, all the visits done by our sales reps, all the products they have and if a product was out of stock in the visit or not.
I want to create a querry that exports a table with 3 columns:
1-->customer
2-->date of last visit
3-->average of out of stock products on the LAST visit
I tried to make a pivot table, managed to grab the last visit (setting the date to maximum) but the average of out of stock products were aggregated totally and not for the last day.
How to handle this in MS access 2010?

Hello,
I have installed Microsoft Access 2003 and Microsoft Access 2003 Developer Extensions. I can create Access application by using the Package Wizard.
But after I upgrade from Microsoft Access 2003 to Microsoft Access 2007.
I can't use the Package Wizard.
How can I do to solve this?
Thanks.
Hi,
I have been using "fSetAccessWindow (SW_HIDDEN)" in the open event of my
main switchboard to hide the grey Access screen from being visible behind
forms, reports, etc in this db. But when I started using a .vbs script file
to launch the db, the Access window stopped being hidden. (The reason I use
the script for launching is that it temporarily sets the db's security level
to 1 which stops the macro security warning from coming up.) Apparently MS
knows about this happening and released a technique to rectify the situation,
but I don't understand their instructions. It looks like they expect one to
have more understanding than I have. Could someone help me get this
impliemented? Here is the article:

Using Access's User and Group Accounts or Using a Login Form to access database?
I've been researching on how to make a database secure. How to create User and Group Accounts on access, I see the step by step instructions and tried it out myself.
I also saw some sites where they give an example of a Login Form and how to create one.
My question is do you need to create both. First create the users and groups to permit or deny access to certain forms and then have a login form?
But would that mean that they'd have to login twice? Once when the database opens because it activates the db security that was created and then login again in the login form that was created?
Also when the user logins in and clicks on the cmd button on the form which opens up another from, frmWorkLog, I have an Employee field. This field I want it to have the user's name entered automatically and "locked". So that info, employee name, is extracted from the user's login. So then the user can only see his or her records only and no one elses.
How would I go about creating that. Hope I made my explanation clear.
Thanks in advance.
I have two database applications and they are:
- the (A) application is for administration use.
- the (B) application is for normal users use.
the idea is that: I made the (A) application for administrators who have full control over the database objects (tables, forms, queries, and so on ...).
the (B) application I have created for normal users who will have only to use forms to insert some data and display data only.
but the two applications has a respective table called "vacation request" table. where I linked them, so the both administrators and users can share the data.
The real question is that: How can I prevent the users from seeing the database objects in their application. I used the database options which have helped me in hidding the database objectives when the users open the application, but unfortunately they managed to access to the database objects by pressing the special keys.
I would like to have an access to the (B) application when I want to make some modifications to the forms and then lock it from users where they only have to use the forms for requesting vacations and view the vacations.
I have a simple access search form , that's based on a query that fill parameters from the form textboxes, when the access form loads its keeps prompting for parameters value which looks ugly .. I want to open the form, displaying all the records in the table and filter when i click search ..
I have a data entry entry form, that i want to generate success message after successful insert in database. I have done it in the button event if no error happens, still if i left all fields blank and clicked save, it displays the message ..
I need to change that to display please fill the textboxes then click save , and display success message when the row is actually inserted ..
Check the following attachment for sample.
I've been using the following code successfully in Access 2003 & now I need to migrate to Access 2010. The purpose of the code is to use the items that the user selects in the list box to build the criteria of a query. Access 2010 keeps giving me a syntax error when I try to run the query & I don't know why:
My code is:
On Error GoTo Err_Command151_Click
' Declare variables
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef
Dim varItem As Variant
Dim strCriteria As String
Dim strSQL As String
[Code] .....
The syntax error I get in Access 2010 is:
Syntax Error in query expression 'SELECT * FROM
qryContractListSummarybyDateContract3TYPEBREAK WHERE
qryContractListSummarybyDateContract3TYPEBREAK.Rep ortableName IN('Adbri
Masonry NSW');'
Attached is a screenshot of the relationships in a database I built a couple of years ago. It's worked absolutely fine in Access 2003 and currently has over 18,000 customers with associated information in it.
However, when I open the database in Access 2007 the performance is awful. All the forms are very slow to respond when tabbing between form elements. I've experimented by reducing the number of form elements calling on related data on a given page and whilst this improves performance it reduces usability - something I don't want to compromise on especially since Access 2007 should be able to cope with this.
My next question is therefore whether I've got the most efficient underlying table design and I can't see any other way of doing it than my current method so I'd be grateful for any feedback or advice anyone has.
I have a stock control database which i have nearly completed. This has Manufacturer, which is linked to products, which is linked to Sub Product(which also has field partCode). i.e. Manufacturer1 can have 3 products, and each of these products could have 5 subsystems and partcodes. Each partcode is unique to that subsystem/product/manufacturer.
I then have a pricing spreadsheet in excel, which has many tabs. A new column has been added for each item for Manufacturer,Product,Subsystem and Partcode.
I need to import these manufacturers,products,subsystems and partcodes, but into the tables with the correct relationships, i.e. product1 and product2 are products of manufacturer1 and so cannot come under manufacturer2, and so on.
I hope this makes sense, Thanks in advance for any help you can give!

I am working on a massave aplication that has been running in Access 2000, but recently several of the file sharing users have installed Access 2003 because of the limited availability of Access 2000. All the users are using the same file off the server.
The problem we are having is that when we reference a subform in the "[Forms]![FormName]![SubformName]![FeildName]" Access 2003 does not recognize it and returns an error. I have found that if I will modify it to "[Forms]![FormName]![SubformName].[Form]![FeildName]" it is recognized in both 2000 and 2003.
To try and change every instance of a subform reference will take forever and I am garuteed to overlook something. We reference subforms all over our program, missing any one of them would be a disaster. Before I went to the tedious task of looking through everything I just wanted to throw the situation out there and see if any of you had any great ideas on how to get it fixed efficiently. I would apreciate any ideas.
I have made a form on access which will be used by other employees within the company, however they have never used access before and they are wanting to access only just the form as I feel with Access and all the tools in the background will confuse them, plus I don't want them editing the data base its self.
Is there a way to only bring up the form, unless I obviously need to edit the date base.
I've done some research on Google and it seems I need to use:
SW_SHOWMINNOACTIVE
However I can not seem to find how I would use this or where?
and also if i did find a way to only bring up the form, how would I be able to switch it from that veiw to the veiw I edit in?
I upgraded a 2000 db to 2003 recently. When I ran the function below it gave me an error on the line in green. Any thoughts? Thanks.
