How To: Access 'Query' Screen In Read-only Mode

Oct 25, 2007

Hi to all,

I would like to ask here for advice on MS Access 2000 application.
When a user logs in, he should be able to use the Access 'Query' screen in read-only mode. In other words, he should be able to generate queries by selecting tables and columns, or using the wizard, but the results of those queries may never have any influence on the data in the database. So: SELECT queries only.
Users should be allowed to execute those queries, but are not allowed to access the tables, forms, or any other items directly.
Is there a way to achieve this?

Thank you


Ori

Form Opening In Full Screen Mode Instead Of Size Set In Design?

Aug 9, 2012

I just imported all of my objects (tables, forms, etc.) into a brand new database file and all of my forms are now full screen instead of the size I set them to in design. What caused this? I can't get them back to their normal size.

I am using Access 2007 but imported files into 2003 .mdb file.

Form View

Design View

How it should look?

General :: Database Opening In Read Only Mode

Modules & VBA :: Check If Database Is Open (Read Only Mode)

Jul 16, 2015

I would like to be able to check if a db is open and if it is to prevent the user from proceeding.

I use the Access 2013 Runtime. I can check if a db is open by trying to open Exclusively, using something like

Code: [URL] ....

But if the db is already open Not exclusively and I try to open it exclusively it does not raise an error and it allows the user to open the db in Read Only mode.

I would like to be able to prevent this, because careless and/or inexperienced users may open several instances of the db.

Of course, if the db is already open exclusively it does not allow you to open it exclusively another time.

Forms :: Listbox To Select Record In Read Only Mode?

May 7, 2014

I have a form which uses a listbox to display a given record but when a user without edit rights opens the form in read only mode

Code:

DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria, acFormreadOnly

The user is unable to use the listbox to select a record to view.

I have also tried opening the form in edit mode (acFormedit) and then setting the allowedits etc. to False

Code:
Me.Form.AllowAdditions = False
Me.Form.AllowDeletions = False
Me.Form.AllowEdits = False

But this didn't work either.

General :: Split Database With Multiple Users - Read Only Kiosk Mode

Dec 17, 2012

I have two separate database files, a front end with all my forms and a back end with all my tables. The backend is stored on a network drive, is there any way of being able to store the frontend on the drive with the backend? Users do not use the actual computer to store information or access files, everything is usually saved on the network drive. I have created a shortcut that launches the front end database in the read only kiosk mode.

Access Closes In Design Master Mode

Mar 27, 2008

I have an application that when in design master shuts down when I attempt to open a certain form. I have traced the problem to a linked field from another table, by creating a new form and ommitting the said field, problem is its a required field!

If I copy the database (Backup) and run it as a replica it does not happen, if I then convert the replica to design master it happens.

Any suggestions please??

How To Open A Website URL In Pop Up Mode From A Form In Access

May 4, 2015

I am writing a program that allows users to enter customer info and I want to be able to pop up a window that will search for Postal (Zip) codes using the Postal Service URL. (I would like to position the popup so that the contents of the Address and Postal Code fields are still visible on the form).

Queries :: How To Calculate Mode Value In Query

Feb 5, 2015

Is there a way to calculate the mode value in a query?

In a summary query, I need to return the value that shows up the greatest number of times in a certain column of a table. Is there a function built in to Access or an easy way to perform this, or do I have to make my own function to handle this?

Access Screen Freezes Then The Forms Don't Work

Aug 9, 2005

This happened yesterday at work.

The access form froze and they could do other things but Access remained frozen. They logged off and when they went back in Access opened but none of the form buttons or links were working.

The database is not split because it is used only by one station at a time.

Has this happened to anyone and does anyone know the cause?

Five people were trying to fix it when I walked into work (5 people who no nothing about Access other than using that one database) and I couldn't get a straight answer.

Thanks
Kim

General :: Removed Submenu Access On Login Form - Cannot Switch To Design Mode

Apr 21, 2015

I'm working on a login form and *not thinking* I removed access to the submenu. I had already set the form up so that you either login correctly or exit the program. I'm working in code for the form and I know it's possible to reactivate the menu in code, I just don't know how. And I can't switch to design mode. The form is set up to not allow anything to happen until the correct login has been entered, and I either had a typo when I set up my test login or the program is bugged and only says it's incorrect....

Queries :: Query Design Defualts To SQL Mode

May 7, 2013

When I click on the design mode of a query object, generally MS Access defaults to the GUI design view... but in this one application, the design view is pulling up queries in SQL mode first...

If I want to set it to the GUI design mode, I have to either hit design again or run the query then hit design to have it pull up in the regular design mode. Is there a setting or something I am missing? Seems that it only does this when the SQL code is reltively involved (i.e. the simpler queries pull up in the normal design view.

Screen Capture Access Window And Save To Disk

Oct 18, 2005

Hi,

I'm looking to take a screen dump of the current Access window, and save it to disk, as part of the error handling for my application. Does anybody have any suggested starting points? I've been Googling around for a while, but haven't really turned up anything concrete.

This (http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=240653) was as close as I really got (sending the print screen keystroke), however I still need a way to save this data to the disk.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
-Adam.

General :: Invoking On Screen Keyboard In Window 8 From Access

Apr 18, 2014

Is there anyway to bring up the on screen keypad or on screen keyboard from Access when running Windows 8 on the desktop? It would really be useful if someone was on a tablet wanting to input data in a text box if could automatically invoke the onscreen keyboard. By default when running applications on the desktop in Windows 8, one has to manually bring it up. I would like to include a touch option so every time wanted to enter data, they would not have to manually touch display keyboard option. A number pad like in excel for iPad would be even better. If text field would bring up keyboard, if number field, it would bring up number pad.
