Intellectual Property Rights
May 12, 2005
I have designed a software package based around an Access Database at my company (based in the UK). There is a good chance that the company will be able to sell the software and potentially make a handsome profit.
My boss wants me to sign an Intellectual Property Rights agreement. Does anybody know what this means? Which of my rights does it effect? Would it prevent me from developing the same software if I left the company?
Any help would be much appreciated. I've found some resources on the web but they seem to apply mainly to music. Just wondered if anyone had had a similar experience.
Cheers.

I wrote an MS Access database before joining a client. I allowed them to use it. I am now leaving the company and would like to protect my intellectual property. Ideally I would like to put an "expiry date" in the database so that after a specified date it no longer functions, or will only function if they purchase the database. Anyway I can do this?

I dont know if this is possible, but i need to add different access rights to a database.
I finish my summer placement in 2 weeks and need to set the database up so that all employees can look at the database but only one can modify it. I know how to do it in excel but i cant seem to get it to work in access. Any suggestions. :p

Has anyone got an idea on how to issue user rights i.e. one person can write to a certain table whilst another can only read the same table. Ive had a good search but unable to find anything! If anyone has a good thread or website I would be most grateful!

I have a BE DB on a network server at work. I was making changes to the database and closed it, but it still says that I have exclusive rights (when I try to compact and repair, it shows that my network log-in ID has rights to the DB).
How can I resolve this?

Hi,
I have designed a database in my station under my server login (I am admin). I want another user in company's server to have limited access but not 100% read only (some read and right access). It is always read only for other users in the server. And also the database can not be opened on more than one station simeltaneously.
Can you help me there.
Thanks,
Greg

Hi All,
It's me again!!
I have another question.
I'm designing this system in which each end user should has a password, and each user has different rights, some can just read, some can add, some can update and some can delete.
how can I achieve that?
I also want to know how can I disable the auto save in MS access, as we know access does auto save. I want access to save only when a save button is clicked.
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Many thanks and regards,
CS.

Can someone please help me out? I have a login form which asks for the users name and password and that all works fine. However, I then want to open a form giving them different editing rights depending on the access level I have assigned them. I have copied the code below. The intAccessLevel is being read in properly but when the form "Sample" opens it ignores the Me.Allow.... statements which corresponds to the different access levels. Does anyone have any ideas why this is the case?
Many thanks,
CC
intAccessLevel = DLookup("AccessLevel", "tblUsers", "[UserID]=" & Me.cboUserName)
If intAccessLevel = 1 Then
DoCmd.OpenForm ("Sample")
Me.AllowAdditions = True
Me.AllowDeletions = True
Me.AllowEdits = True
ElseIf intAccessLevel = 2 Then
DoCmd.OpenForm ("Sample")
Me.AllowAdditions = True
Me.AllowDeletions = False
Me.AllowEdits = True
ElseIf intAccessLevel = 3 Then
DoCmd.OpenForm ("Sample")
Me.AllowAdditions = True
Me.AllowDeletions = False
Me.AllowEdits = False
ElseIf intAccessLevel = 4 Then
DoCmd.OpenForm ("Sample")
Me.AllowAdditions = False
Me.AllowDeletions = False
Me.AllowEdits = False
End If

I need to launch the database on the server as a multi user. Only one station can change the designs and major issues. But other stations have the right to add/edit/delete data. I tried that through security account and permission. It works on the admin, but not with other user login.
How can I link the access user to my server user login?
Tanks a million. :(

Hi together.
I have a problem getting this error message "Cannot update. Database or object is read-only" in my Access form application.
The funny thing is, when i run this program under a Administrator account, it's working...but its not working with the User account.
Of course the User hast permission to this folder, it's just a folder on the "C:" drive.
Is there a special right i have to modify that the user can work on it?
thanks

I've been asked to make sure only certain users in my database are able to print anything (i.e. Administrators). Is there any option/property to do this?
I have already built in User Access controls using the ctl.Tag property. The only way I can think off the top of my head is when a 'general user' uses it, to ensure that every control is displayed 'on screen only'. This of course doesn't stop them printing - just makes them print blank pages!

I have a web based application that loads data from Access97. From the application, I choose the database and it uploads data from the chosen db.
However, after the upload is done, I am not able to open the db again till I shut down my system and start it again. The db is on my local hard disk drive and so there are no rights issues (maybe I am wrong). I also do not see any hanging *.ldb files. I even checked to see if there were any hidden *.ldb files but found none.
Could someone please help me with this issue?

I have a problem. The problem is that I have a form contains two list boxes controls and a calender control. The calender control is invisible by default.
When I click a Show button, to show the calender contol, it appears but behind the list boxes controls. How can I allow it to fully appear on top of all the controls in the form.
Thanks,

I have never used the tag property but while reviewing some design stuff it occurred to me that maybe I am overlooking it's usefulness and was wondering how some of you may have used it...?

Please pardon my ignorance, but how do I set up a ActiveX calendar in Access? The help files are missing from the version of Access 2000 I am using, and I really don't know what I am doing. I would be grateful for any help with this.

hello,
I have a txtBox. Its backColor property changes according to what I do on the form. Now, when I close the form and reopen it, the backColor is not the same one with which the form was closed.
Ex. red, green
if I close the form having the backColor = green, then when I reopen it, it changes to red.
Can anyone tell me what I am missing
Thank you

Hi all
I have searched through this forum and on google, and I know that I can refer to a combobox's column property IN VBA by
[myform]![mycombobox].column(1)
When I do this in SQL, it complains that there is an "unidentified function" (column). What am I doing wrong?

How do I set the Required property for field that already exists via SQL. I'm thinking along the lines of: ALTER TABLE table1 ALTER COLUMN field1 text(50) NOT REQUIRED.
But this doesn't work, any clues?

I guess I have too many columns in my database and I'm getting the error message "Property value is too large" when trying to open the database table. When I was using Access 2000, I was still able to open the database but using Access 2003, the database will not open. Is there a way around this so I can open the table to fix it?

What I'd like to do is for my combo boxes to say something like "Select One" when the form is first loaded, until the user opens the box and selects something. My combo boxes work fine now, but they are currently empty when the form loads.
From my google research it appeared that the OnLoad property would probably help me do what I want, but I can't seem to find this property anywhere in Access. It's not anywhere in the property window and the help search doesn't return any results.
I'm using Access 2003 from MS Office Professional Edition 2003.
Am I missing an upgrade or does my version not have this property, or am I just missing it?

Hi all
I have a lstbox on a bound form. the lstbox is based on a query. I want the first item in the box to be selected. This is what ive used:
Private Sub roll_class_select_AfterUpdate()
DoCmd.Requery "lststudents"
Me.lststudents.Selected(0) = True
End Sub
But then the form gets stuck. None of the other controls will work. The first list item is selected but it then wants to be the centre of attention and everything else can bugger off.
Any ideas as to how I can fix it??

I have a subform (subform1) which allows me to select a value which then dictates which record is shown in the other subform (subform2). I want to run a macro every time subform2 has a different value -- without me having to click anywhere in subform2. I have tried to attach the macro to every place I can think of and it just doesn't seem to run. I am thinking it is because subform2 isn't receiving the focus. How do I give subform2 the focus and which event property should I be trying for?
