Kick Users Out Of Access

Jun 9, 2005

Has anyone got any ideas of programs that are avaliable to kick users of a database in Access remotely?

Our Programmes team have a program which will do this and it doesn't involve any tables, etc within the database but they won't tell me whats it called or provide me with a copy of it!!

Anyone got any ideas?

Kick Users Out Of DB

Feb 19, 2007

Hey guys,

I'm curious to know if it is possible to kick users off your db so you can make changes. Is it possible to send them a message to save and close within 30 seconds, or just send them a messgae. I guess I want to know whether I can
1) Kick a user off
2) Send them a message
3) Send a user a message and then kick them off

Why Does App Kick Me Out Of Access???

Sep 25, 2006

I wasn't sure if this is the right spot for the probelm I'm having, but....

In Access 2000, I have an application with a Report selection menu, from where you can choose one or several reports, key in a from-date / to-date range, select whether to preview or print and then click a command button that'll run the selected reports.

Each report iws based on a its own group of queries.

Until today, everything was running OK, but today, when a certain report is selected, an hourglass stays on the screen for an awfully long time, and then I'm tossed out of my application and tossed out of Access completely! There are no errors displayed, there is nothing displayed.

If anyone has a hint of an idea, I'd sure love to hear what's causing this strange behavior. Thank you to anyone or any group of people who might be able to shed light on this!!! I think I need medication!!

Troubleshooting Kick Out

Jun 17, 2005

I 'm having trouble with a DB. One of the forms is a schuduler which the user clicks on a calendar control and a form opens up showing orders schuduled for that date and unschudule order. The user then can assign the order. Just recently whichout any DB changes the user gets kicked out of the db when they scroll down thru the records. This is happening on Multiple workstations and rebooting doesn't help. Tried deleting the record but its not a problem with a specific record scrolling thru other records with the same fields filled in works. The Detect and Repair did not work (believe it or not) The same happens on the query that the form get it data from and I tried to copy the table to make a backup but it kicks me out. I'm thinking the tbl might have to many fields (55) but the DB is only 39 MB.

Allow End Users To Access QBE?

Aug 30, 2006

I searched and doesn't seem to find anything about that question.

I am aware that there are forms that help with building dynamic queries for end users who need to juggle their data, but wondered if allowing them to access QBE would make everything easier (why reinvent the wheel?), and whether it is possible to restrict QBE from doing action queries or using dynaset to restrict end users from updating via queries which may circumvent the rules written in forms for the given data.

Have anyone had designed database with users having access to QBE? If not, how do you provide as much functionality without practically having to re-invent the wheel?

Thanks.

Users In Access 2000

Aug 16, 2005

Is there a way in Access 2000 that I can set up a users table? Basic info:

Name
Phone Number
Fax Number

Then every time the database is opened they are prompted for their name?

I have a database that has a Fax Cover Sheet within the DB, when they click the Fax Cover Sheet Form I want their information to automatically be generated into the form based on the information from the original table.

Hope this is clear. Thanks.

How Can Users W/o Access Read My CD?

Nov 29, 2006

I want to make an Access database of my collection of antique swords that I can put on a CD. This DB would also include as many as 5 digital images for each record.

Some of my friends may not have Access 2007 on their PC. Is there a viewer that I can put on the CD with my database so they can view it without them having to buy the Access program??

How Many Users Can An Access Db Handle?

Nov 5, 2007

I'm responsible for an Access 2000 database which three people have open more or less constantly and another four open from time to time.

The database is on a P2P network and is split, with the back end in a single location. The network is wireless.

At the moment there are no problems with this setup but changes are being contemplated which will mean that eight people will have the database open constantly with another four using it occasionally.

For other reasons ( There were only three other wireless networks within range when we started, now there are eight), we are switching the network from wireless to cable. The back end will be transferred to a new PC with a powerful processor and loads of memory.

Does anyone have experience of allowing that many users to log on at the same time in a P2P network? And was the experience good or bad?

Allow Users To Access Backend Data

Jun 16, 2005

Im totally new at all this stuff, so any help is appreciated.

i have a database with one table that has many different attributes and almost 3000 records. this is all i have done, i have simply been loading in all of the data to the table, now that that is done i need to allow users to extract the data.

so, what is the best way to build a front end that allows the user to easily extract data from the database? ideally, i would like to have some sort of front end that would have a text input window where they could search for records matching attributes in the table that match or are close to the text they type in, with some additional options for honing down the search terms with dropdown menus, radio buttons, etc.

the problem is i really havent a clue on how to do that stuff. can anyone just give some general, beginner type steps for things i should be doing to create that "front end" i am visualizing. THANKS!

Access Locking Up With Multiple Users

Mar 12, 2007

Hi,

I have a database that i created for our tech support team. I have split the database and have given the 3 users each a shortcut. I als e only installed Access Runtime on their machines.

The first user in pilot testing had no issues and we have just added the other 2 users. At first all was well. However, the 2 new users are now having periodic lock ups where they go to enter a new record and the dbase freezes on them. It seems to release itself in a few minutes, but this does not help my productivity.

My original user is still not having any trouble. Does anyone have any ideas of something that perhaps I missed? Everything I have read, suggests that 3 users should not have any trouble using a split dbase.

Is it runtime that may be causing this? I have considered going to full versions if need be, but then I would need to figure out how to lock it down better.

Thanks
Dave

Sharing Access With Remote Users

Jul 29, 2007

I have developed an application for a friend. We live about 100 miles apart in the UK. The database (Access 2007) works perfectly for us, I input data from various sources and he views the reports I've designed that show him exactly what he wants to see.

Now I want to move to the next phase which is I enter data from my PC at home and he then views the reports on his PC at his home.

Any advice on how I can do this, at low cost,

Concurrent Users Access 2007

Dec 13, 2007

I am trying to get a feel for how Access 2007 performs regarding the ammount of concurrent users using a database.

I know there has been a lot of differing opinions about previous version and was wonder is the new version of Access (& I would guess Jet as well) is more stable with multiple users?

Troubleshooting Access Multiple Users

Jan 2, 2007

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I maintain the Access databases at the hospital that I work at. Last weekend, our server went down. Computer Services got a new server and reworked the networking permissions. However, Access will no longer allow more than one user to open the database at a time. This is a problem because we always have multiple users that need simultaneous access. The default is still "Open Shared" and I checked to ensure that the databases are not being opened exclusively. However, the message that I do get when a second user tries to open the database is:

The table 'MSysAccessObjects' is already opened exclusively by another user, or it is already open through the user interface and cannot be manipulated programmatically. (Error 3008) -

I understand that this message usually comes up when I try to open a table that is already being edited elsewhere. I have the record locks set to "edited record". However, this is a system file, so I am hesitant to make changes in it unless I know exactly what I am doing. This is a problem that we have never had before but for some reason was created after our server went down. I don't know why something changed or if this table is absolutely necessary. I am unsure where to start to solve the problem.

General :: Maximum Access Users

Dec 9, 2013

I know that Access probably permits around 20 or so users to simultaneously access the database before it start to become unfriendly. However, I have a database that would require 200 or so users grabbing around 1,000 rows of data via an Excel ADO connection to the backend tables.

So they would never need to physically go inside the Access database its self, but instead it would garb data by opening an ADO connection to the database > Grabbing the data > Closing the database connection.

Is this okay to do with around 200 users simultaneously querying the database tables via an Excel ADO connection?

General :: Allow Users To Access A Database

Oct 27, 2012

I am about to allow users to access a database I redesigned for others to use.I am trying to save it as an ACCDE so they can't mess it up. The database is very very simple.6 tables each with only 4 fields or less... and none are related to one another

7 forms.
1 report.
0 queries... it's just a SKU generator.

When I attempt to save as ACCDE I get an error that reads."Microsoft Access was unable to create the .accde, .mde, or .ade file.This error is usually associated with compiling a large database into an MDE file.* Because of the method used to compile the database, a considerable number of TableID references are created for each table.* The Access database engine can only create a maximum of 2048 open TableIDs at one time.* Exporting a database as an MDE potentially can exceed this limit if the database has a large number of objects (table, macro, form, report, etc).

There is no accurate method to estimate the number of TableIDs the Access database engine uses during the process of compiling a database as an MDE.* However, each VBA module and each form uses one TableID, as a result, if the database has 500 forms, and each form's HasModule property is set to Yes, as many as 1,000 TableIDs are used."

Users Cannot Access Secure Database

Jun 2, 2015

This morning I accidently ran the "User-Level security wizard" on a secure database that we use. I meant to add a member but clicked the wrong thing and followed suite by hitting "Finish" instead of cancel because I wasn't paying attention. Aside from creating a "Security.mdw" file which isn't being used at all, it also somehow managed to lock everyone but the administrator out.

I checked the Users/Groups and Permissions, they are all there and correct, nothing seems to have been changed at all but when anyone tries to log in now they get the following error:"You do not have the necessary permissions to use the '...mdb' object. Have your system administrator or the person who created this object establish the appropriate permissions for you."

I've read some posts with similarish issues that recommended recreating the .mdw file and importing the data over. The file is encrypted so I wasn't able to do that but I did try making a copy and renaming it then changing the path in the Access shortcut to the copy instead. What all files/settings handle this and if the Users/Groups show up correctly in the database, what could be preventing the users from getting in?

Running Access For Multiple Users

Sep 8, 2011

I have an MS Access application for about 40 users. The problem is that the company does not want to have to buy all these licenses and put it on each machine. Also because each person had to bring in their own set of data multiple people cannot be hitting this at once. So they want to know if there is a way to allow the people to use it without having the application on their machine; and thereby saving the money of buying 40 licenses.

Limitations Of Using Access With Multiple Users On Intranet

Mar 24, 2006

Hi,

I would like to use an Access database over an Intranet. What are the limitations of doing this? I want multiple individuals to be able to open forms and enter data. I would also want others to be able to run queries and reports on the database. Would I need to upsize to an Oracle database to run with multiple users? Any words of wisdom would be appreciated.

My Users Keep Accidentally Closing Access - Need Ideas

Jan 15, 2007

Hello.

I have a fairly complex database with a lot of charts, reports, forms etc.

My problem is that whenever someone chooses to maximize a Pivotchart, a report preview or other things, they usually click the big X button in the top right hand corner and close Access entirely. They don't think to click the smaller x button right below it.

This is frustrating when they just want to go back to the switchboard to performs some other task. They have to restart the database, log in...etc.

I know you can prevent forms and whatnot from being maximized, but I do want them to have that feature for a number of reasons... especially with my Pivotcharts. They are much clearer when expanded to full-size.

Is there a solution to this problem, or do my users just have to be more careful?

Thanks in advance
