I originally had a LInked tabledef to my focpro dbf file, but when i found i could statically link a query, i decided to use that method instead.
Now, I clicked on the properties, copied my connect string, and voila it worked.
THen i was trying to do a few things to split my database, since I figured certain things would be faster in a back-end external database, and I wanted to copy the linked query. The query accidentally got deleted from my database, and i went to recreate it. Now I'm getting this error:
"Cannot find installable ISAM"
So i went back to my VB programmed tabledef, and that works fine, but the query still won't. Why?
I was surprised to not find any posts on this error in here. Maybe i did not search correctly?? Anyway I am getting an ISAM 3170 error when I run the following code:

Now here's my app:
I am running an Access 2000 DB on a Windows Terminal Server (Citrix Metaframe). The Access 2000 DB has several linked tables to a SQL 2000 server. I have went to microsofts web site and verified I did not have registry entry (pointing to wrong files) issues. We have re-installed Office 2K. At this point I am not sure what is left to do?
A couple of us were doing data entry when one of the record converted its characters to chinese one. When trying to delete this record,I got the error message that the key wasn't found in any record. And clicking the help this is what it said "The search key was not found in any record. (Error 3709) This error occurs when an ISAM SEEK is being executed and there are no matching values in the index." I was only trying to delete.
A suggestion I found on Google was to remove the indexing of memo fields, but there aren't any.
I have recently installed access 2007 and I get an error when trying to do an import data macro for an excel file. It says "could not find installable isam". I have googled and googled, and tried the following:
renaming the msexcl35.dll and msexcl40.dll files, reinstalling access, verifying path is correct in the registry, and manually registered the above files. I also have the most recent jet service pack installed.
I was using Access 2010 and just updated to 2013. My first use of a 2010 accdb file gave me this error "Could not find installable ISAM".My OP is Windows 7 Pro 64
I have been running queries and reports with data from our company database (a third-party system based on FoxPro2.6) by linking tables into MS Access 97 for years. We have now upgraded to XP and Office 2003, and suddenly I can no longer do this but get a message "Could not find installable ISAM".
I've tried to locate the required file on the Internet but no luck so far. Can anybody help me? I am currently using an old pc with Office 97 on it to run the reports, but it's in a different office location and makes the whole job very tedious. Are there any work-arounds?
Im new to asp and access and have been having this problem for serveral weeks.
Every couple of days, all the asp pages on my site that communicate with the database start having 500 internal errors. i turned off the "Show friendly error messages" and one page gave me this specific error:
Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80004005'
Unspecified error
/admin/submitlogin.asp, line 8
I have tried a million things and have no idea why this is happening. Im not sure what other information i should post in order to see the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you,

Does anybody know what this error message refers to?
"Reserved Error (-1517); there is no message for this error."
It just started happening today, and I haven't even made any changes to the database. It occurs when I hit a button I have to run a macro.
the macro does the following: 1) Shows all records 2) Requery 3) ApplyFilter. The Where Condition for the filter is: Right([tblContracts].[JobNum],4)=Right([Forms]![FrmContProc].[txtFindJobNum],4)
The weird thing is that it only occurs if the Form window is taller than 1/2 of my viewable area. If the Form window is 1/2 the viewable area or shorter, it works OK. This was running fine earlier today, but about 4:00 pm (03/31/06) this started happening.
If anybody knows what this error means, or how to get rid of it (I really need to use this window in full-screen) then please let me know.
Okay, I'm kind of stumped here.I have a subform that has a button that sends a user to a "sibling" subform on another tab page, pass some information to ensure they are adding more details to the same records rather than creating two separate record.First time I programmed it, I got an error 3022 (keys cannot have duplicate values). I checked the query of the sibling subform and saw that the ID is from the one side table. I changed it so many table's foreign key is used. Second try, I got an error 3341 (there isn't a matching key in one side table).After some thinking, it also occured to me that I had set the query this way to allow addition of new record which wouldn't be possible if I had the query pulling the many side key, not the one side key.How do I get the subform to accept the ID that is being passed and create a new record using that ID?:confused:

From the second iteration its not picking the error.
Is it enough for error handling to code the on error property for each form? With enough I mean error handling which lets you resume the program.
Ontherwise I have to code (or call a procedure) for each coded event which i wouldn't prefer
For instance now I'm putting error handling in each event but would consider it more efficient if it can be placed once in each form Private Sub cmdReport_Click() On Error GoTo Err_cmdReport_Click
Not sure how to work in the '* ROLL *' into this SQL statement. The query statement works fine ... I have tried different quotation methods ( Not Like " & " ' * ROLL * & ' " & " ) AND .... )
sql = "SELECT DISTINCTROW Sum(CDbl([Scrap Factor])) AS SumOFScrap FROM [RT: Signpro1: Costs] LEFT JOIN [DT: InventoryExtend] ON [RT: Signpro1: Costs].[Part Number] = [DT: InventoryExtend].[Part#] GROUP BY [DT: InventoryExtend].CategoryID, [DT: InventoryExtend].Description, [forms]![signpro sign estima parameters]![combo14] HAVING ((([DT: InventoryExtend].CategoryID)=30) AND (([DT: InventoryExtend].Description) Not Like '* ROLL *') AND (([forms]![signpro sign estima parameters]![combo14])=1));"
hi guys i was wondering if you can help me this is my code: i have a main form with this code, this form contains a subform linked by the All_PricingID
Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("tblAll_Pricing") 'main table ' adding data to the table rst.AddNew ' Main table rst!All_PricingID = Me.txtPricingID 'Main table pk rst!MainContract_ID = Me.cmbMainContract 'combo box in parent form rst!ItemNumber = Me.txtItem 'Main form text rst.Update
'sub Table Set rst2 = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("tblPricing") 'sub table For varItem = 0 To Me.lstsubContracts.ListCount - 1 'this is a list in the main form '--- loop through all the items in the list box and create a new row in the subform for each subcontract in the listbox lstSubcontracts. rst2.AddNew rst2!ID = Me.All_PricingID 'sub table foreign key rst2!SubContractID = Me.lstsubContracts.Column(0, varItem) 'sub table rst2.Update Next varItem '--- close the tables rst.Close rst2.Close Set rst = Nothing Set rst2 = Nothing
the subform appears correctly with the rows i wanted added but i need the user to be able to edit a column in the subform for the rows just created (my form is on datasheet view). but everytime i move to cursor into the subform, i can't even scroll up and down.
i keep getting an error 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. (Error 3022)
but when i check my tables tblAll_Pricing and tblPricing , everything is inserted correctly according to my recorset above, do you know why this is happening? and why i am not able to edit my subform. my subform allowsedits and additions.
hi, I am new to this forum and to MS Acess. i am not a software engineer or in the field of software. I had to learn as much as i could about MS Acess because of a project i worked on. I have a standalone MSacess database and one of the forms is giving me trouble when I try to enter a new record
The form is called frm_fragrances and has information about a fragrance. the frm_fragrances has 4 fields in it and a sub form. the sub form has details about the fragrance
In a new record when I enter the 4 fields and attemt to go to the subform which has details about this fragrance I face this error.
an unexpected error haas occurred @2465: application defined or object defined error.
additional information Active form:<frm_fragrances> Active control:<txt_VendorName> Previous control:<frm_fragrances>@Please call the developer for further instructions
I have looked in the FAQ and on this forum for help on error 2465 and cannot find anything to help me. I can work with forms to an extent but cannot write too much code.
I would really appreciate some help in this matter Thank you
I'm from Vietnam and my English is bad. In my database, I have only a table named tblEmployees, which contains these following fields: Employee_ID (data type: text), Name (text), Salary (number) and Allowance (number). I build a form bound to this table. In the footer of this form, I have a textbox control named txtSumSalary that contains the expression: =Sum([Salary]). Everythings is OK. But when I build an another textbox named txtSumAllowance that contains the expression: =Sum([Allowancess]) (I misspelled this field intentionally), the result are error #error in both textbox controls. I don't understand why the textbox txtSumAllowance wrong, the textbox txtSumSalary is wrong too. Help me!!! Thanks a lot!
Hi. The following message appears when an append query is run in one of my databases "Error No:6; Description: Overflow". I've never seen it before, can't find it in Help - nor anywhere else on the net. All assistance greatly appreciated!
I have the following code as error handling in a form that gives me Run-time Error 438 "Object doesnt support this property or method" with "Msgbox..." highlighted... Code:'Error Handling On Error GoTo cmd_icp_catcode_Click_Err'and later in the code' Exitcmd_icp_catcode_Click_Exit: Exit Sub' Error notificationcmd_icp_catcode_Click_Err: MsgBox "An unexpected error hass occurred." _ & vbCrLf & "Procedure: cmd_icp_save_Click" _ & vbCrLf & "Error Number: " & Err.Number _ & vbCrLf & "Error Descricption:" & Err.Descricption _ , vbCritical, "Error" Resume cmd_icp_catcode_Click_Exit I can provide any more info that you need... I am just surprised because i have used the same code on several forms before and this has never happened!
I have a database networked with about 8 users. We have been having a problem recently with a specific table. Occasionally, when a user opens a specific form based on this table the entire form is whitened out. When I open the database there is no major curruption, but then when I check the specific table I always find one record with "#Error" shown in every field. I cannot delete the record (invalid argument), so I compact & repair the database and the bad record changes all fields to "##########". Then I can delete the record and all is fine.
Any thoughts on what can cause this kind of error ?
I'm getting the following error when I try to switch to design view. Also I can't close the database: :( "You can't switch to a different view at this time. Code was executing when you tried to switch views. If you are debugging code, you must end the debugging operation before switching views."
Let's say we have a table in which one of the fields is Date. Now let's say we want to create a simple report from that table, but the user has to pick the date interval. So, the report will have to display records only from X date to Y date. We create then a form called Report with 2 fields for the user to input the X date and the Y date to create the interval. Then we make a query from that table, and on the criteria of Date, we put the following expression:
Between [Forms]![Report]![DateX] And [Forms]![Report]![DateY]
Well, that's what I've always done when I want to create a report based on a date interval input by the user and it always worked.
But now I've got a problem. Instead of making a query, I made a crosstab query from the table, to make the report easier to read. And again, on the date criteria I put the same expression, but it won't work on the crosstab query. I always get this error message:
"The Microsoft Jet database engine does not recognize '[Forms]![Report]![DateX]' as a valid field name or expression."
Why does this expression work on a regular query but not on a crosstab query?
Also, any ideas on how to create this report on the date interval provided by the user and using the crosstab query?
