Lock Table Or Configure As View Only
Mar 15, 2012Is there a simple way that I can lock a table or better yet configure it as view only. The table is used to populate a combo box in an entry form, and I do not want anyone to have the ability to add records to the table (options in the entry form), but I would like them to be able to view the table. I don't need a robust solution with passwords. I would imagine there is a simple preference to set, I am just not seeing it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedConfigure Option Button To Output To Memo Box
Sep 8, 2005Alright, I'm running out of options!! I have several pieces of equipment that use text file configuration data. What I want to do is create an option button for each piece of equipment so that when I click that option button, its output ties directly to a memo box.
What I want to be able to do is have 7 different option buttons and each time I click a different option button I can paste text file config data for each piece of equipment into the same memo box and save it. That way, when I query a particular site ID and look up configuration data for any one of those pieces of equipment, I will be able to view the saved config files in the same memo box just by selecting a particular option button.
Is this possible? I've tried subforms, tabs (although I can't seem to be able to use tabs within tabs), option groups, etc. Any suggestions or help would be most certainly appreciated! :p
How Can I Configure A Table To Auto Data Entry Into Fields Based On A Previous Field
Aug 31, 2006My situation is this. I have 3 tables that I have imported from my mainframe system, between these 3 tables I have the data of product code, description,supplier code, supplier name, order method, and ABC code.
I am trying to create another table that I can capture daily Out Of Stock data for products.
What I would like to do is to enter the product number in the first field of my new table, and then the remaining fields will auto populate with the correct details based on the product data stored in the parent tables that I have imported.
How can this be done?

Mar 9, 2007Hi,
Before I ask my question I was wondering if it was possible to attach a zip file of the database I'm working on? It would save some typing.
Thanks

Hello I'm New To This Forum And I Have A Question :)
May 16, 2005Several of my databases is a little slow and that puzzles me since there isn't over 200mb of data yet :confused:
Is there any advantage in storing data on an oracle server and will it speed up things or is there other things I can do?
Perhaps someone in here would be so kind to look at my database and give some advice on the structure and possible changes to improve performance?
Perhaps I should add that I don't know much about other database tools so I'm shooting in blind here.
So if anybody will look at my database and see if he/she can optimize it I will be happy. I can leave little data inside to allow You to see the output - if needed.
I'm not very technical with access (not yet) so things might be done differently than I do to speed up things
Any help is greatly appreciated :)
Forum Restructure
Mar 19, 2007Due to the ongoing bulk of regular spam posts that this forum receives, and based on similar activity on other forums, I think it would seem to be that the reason for this is the use of the word 'General' in the forum's title. In my experience it is the areas marked this way that generate the most spam, be it 'General Discussion' or otherwise.
So, in order to try and combat this, I was thinking that it may be in the forum's interests to change the name of this section. If it's what spambots are geared up to search for then it makes sense to shield the target from them.
My thinking is that, were I to change the name, the forum would be best placed at the base of the 'Microsoft Access Discussion' area and renamed to 'Other Issues'.
Thus, my plan would be to have the 'Microsoft Access Forum' ordered in this way:
Database Design
Tables
Queries
Forms
Reports
Macros
Modules
Other Issues
I'd appreciate others thoughts on this so reply away. There's a poll at the top of this thread if you just want to post a yes/know/don't know sort of response. The poll will only be active for one week, starting now.
This Forum Got Me In Trouble...
May 1, 2007Hello all active members of this forum,
Like I stated on the title, this forum got me into trouble. By following the reading in this forum and some recommendations from the regular users I have created thre database for the place I work at. now they want me to be the official DB admin! :eek:
So now I'm coming back to you guys for more advice... :rolleyes: what reading should I do to better my Access knowledge over all.
Any recommendation is welcome.
I have already contacted th local college and they do have a distant learning class for Access and I will be taking it the next semester, but I would like to do some reading into becoming a REAL Access programmer with a solid foundation.
There must be some good books out there to purchase to get me started. So all are welcome to give me some feedback.
Thanks!

Forum Database
Jan 2, 2006I have been tasked to design a Forum Database using ASP, could someone please point me in the right direction as to the design for table structure for this.
I know that the user will be looking at a web front end which in turn will be accessing the Access Database.
Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Recommendations On SQL Server Forum ?
Oct 6, 2005Recently I moved the back end of some databases I develop and maintain to a SQL Server for speed and stability purposes.

I have searched FAQs, advanced search, etc., and know I'm not looking in the right places.
Question: How do you, in this forum, publish a URL using a descriptive title versus the actual URL itself?
Obviously it's not rocket-science since so many contributors do it apparently effortlessly, but folks I'm struggling.
Please point me in the right direction.

Using Google To Search The Forum
Feb 9, 2007Did you know that you can use Google to search the Access Forum and get a more refined result?
I find that the search facility provided is excellent at searching for single words. However it does not provide the sophistication of tools like Google for searching for exact phrases.
To get this sophistication do this:
Open Googles advanced page: (http://www.google.co.uk/advanced_search?hl=en)
The first section of this page is shaded blue, and contains the following items:
with all of the words
with the exact phrase
with at least one of the words
without the words
You can add words to varying degrees of sophistication for your search.
This is the important bit!
Just below this blue shaded area there is another section, go to the fifth item down in this section which is:"Domain" also make sure "Only" is selected. In the next text box (to the right of Only) place the domain you want to search in, this case you want to search the Access Forum so place in this box the following:
http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums
Now give it a try! Try searching for: "Date Selection" (without the Quotes)
If you search for this with the above Google method, you will get 90 results, If you search this result with the Forum search then you will get over 300 results.
Caveats:
Your search will only return items within the access-programmers site, and only items that are allowed to be indexed by Google.

How Do You Put Usernames In Forum In Access? Please Help Me?
May 25, 2006Hi,
I have been using access for quiet awhile (I learned it 2 months ago). I want to have a online business (using Dreamweaver and Access) but, I want to organize my data and I want to figure out how (when you go onto a website say target.com) to make the username and password in Access (Like when you register for an account, you put in your username, password, email address...ect. and the you make your account and then when you put in you username and password again to log into your account (I want to know how to do that)). Another thing, when the person logs into a account and wants to buy a product how do you do that in access.
Any answers can help me.
You could send me a link to a webpage that tells me how to do this stuff.
Any Tips?:)

Does Some From The MS Access Group Monitor This Forum?
Mar 10, 2006Surely I am not the only one who imports text files in to Access (on XP) containing double quote characters???

Limited Posts In Access DB Forum
May 2, 2007Hi there!
I`ve been using Access DB for a forum for about two years now, but from time to time I have to download the db and delete about a 1000 posts (+/-).
The reason for this is that the db want accept more posts unless I do so.
My question is how do I "extend" the db to accept more posts?
Thx in advance,

Not Able To Enter Or Change Data In A Forum
Aug 13, 2007Here is my problem:
I created a Query to calculate an over all rateing useing other data that was already in the database. The Query worked out perfectly, and I then wanted to put the one field that gave me the overall rateing that I just calculated and put it into a form. So I added the Query with the rateing into the one that made up the other form and added the field to the Query. The problem was that when i went into that form and added the field, it made it so that i could no longer change any of the data on that forum. I thought that it might have something to do with the fact that there were no fields with math in them in that form untill i added the over all rateing one, could that have messed it up? Please send me some seggestions because I havent a clue at what could be worng. Thank you, Ben
Attention To The Best Access / VB Programmers In This Forum
Feb 9, 2006Right first of all hi everyone,
i have been to about four forums now and No One has been able to make this work it can be done as i have seen it from the access sample database (Order Entry). I have been informed that this forum has the best of the best in access guru's, this problem has had me stuck for 2 weeks i don't normally asked for help but it has breached my knewledge base and now its time for an expert to have a look at it.
I have had many suggestions but none have worked, below is the link to the Order Entry database so you can see what i am trying to acheive and also another link of my actual database as it stands.
The problem is that i have a form called Customers this is displayed when the database is opened, the form has a subform called QuoteSelector that holds all the quotes if there are no quotes then the user is then able to add a new customer and then create a quote when they click the Create New Quote button.
Then another form called Quotes opens this holds the data form the quote and also has a subform called QuoteBuilder, this form holds all the materials that have been selected for the quote.
Now when i click the Create Invoice button that is on the Customers page i want all the information from these forms to be displayed in my report called Invoice. I have already created the Invoice i am just having trouble in passing the CustomerID and the QuoteID to the Invoice or i think this is what is needed in order to make all the data display.
If you can help this would be great as no other forum has been able to and this one has the best reputation for programmers with access so well i will have to see it, but please take a look at the Order Entry database and see how the Invoice is generated you will notice a box pop up letting the user enter more details i don't want this i just want the invoice to come up and then the user can print it.
Thanks in advance and hope this can be done:
This is the sample database Order Entry

Jul 7, 2006Yea yea I know, another one...
But the way I see is that I haven't asked them all so its ok... :p
Right basically, I only want to allow input of Y N or P into a text field. I thought it would be best to do it with an onkeypress event as I know of no way to block certain characters in a text field with an input mask.. this is what I came up with but it doesnt seem to work...
If Not KeyPress=78 Or Not KeyPress=80 Or Not KeyPress=89 Then KeyPress = 0
Any ideas?
