If I have a report in MS Access 2000 generated based on the criteria selected of a project with work order "9999" with the labor costs, materials costs and the Totals of each crew1, crew2,... and I would like to have those expenditures populated in corresponding cel in Excel for each crew, HOW would I do it?
To think it out loud, could I create a button on a form, so when I select the criteria for the work order, and when I click the button, it should refresh/update the Exel file with the new data...?? How do I write VBA code for that...?
I am opening and closing a series of Excel 2000 Workbooks using Access 2000 VBA and want this sequence to be able to complete without any human intervention.
However, there are 2 instances when this stops and waits for a human option to be selected:
1. When the spreadsheet is password protected 2. When the spreadsheet has automatic links I get the message:
"The Workbook you opened contains automatic links to information in another workbook. Do you want to update this workbook with changes made to the other workbook?"
How can I code it so that in situation 1 it skips this file and in situation 2 it automatically defaults to do not update?
Guys I will have to do a xls workbook every month what it is , is I have transactions that are in different currencies Sterling , Dollar, Euro , South african Rands , etc What I want to know is it possible to transfer out all transactions into a xls(yes) but to seperate out sterling into 1 sheet, dollars into another , etc (still have not finished ) now we get into a tax problem
(I am in insurnace) so not only do I need these into sepearte sheets by currency, but also by tax as well example
I have a database that currently has security in place so that users input their own usernames and passwords to access the database. The users have recently been added to a windows 2000 server and I want to be able to use their windows 2000 server logon credentials to provide them with automatic access to the database. Is there anyone out there who knows how to set this up? It is a rather urgent request if you could get back to me either on this forum or via email
I have recently been doing a conversion for my boss for a access 2000 database (both front and backend) to a MSSQL backend.
I finished the conversion today (as quite a lot of the code / queries ran slow due to access running the queries locally rather than on the server). And tested it on my and my boss's machine with no problems so he gave the go ahead to update everybody to our new mssql 2000 backend with the modified frontend.
This is when the problems started; We had two different sets of forms for accessing one of our databases systems - the log system, one is the original dynaset based form, and the other is a newer set which uses snapshot views and preforms updates via queries. Nobody uses the old dyanset system apart from my boss and one of the administrative team as they have things on that window which they need to see. About 30 minutes into the release of the new database the system frooze up on my bosses computer and nobody could create a new log (the server was timing out). I assumed this had something to do with the old dynaset's creating locks on the table.
I offlined the database and kicked everybody out of the front end, turned it on again and tied again, this time banning everybody from the dynaset system. Within 10 minutes another computer frooze up, again with a timeout on the insert query. I discovered that after you had added a new log to the database it would timeout on all subquent additions (something it hadn't done during testing) . Further investigatiion showed it was the snapshot list window causing the error, so coded the add log window to close the list before preforming the insert query and then reopen it afterwards. This allowed my machine to make multible additions without flaw. So I released a new client to everybody. 15 minutes later it was timing out again, but this time there you could not even make one new record.
I checked for locks on the table though the server management table and couldn't find any for the Log table. I have restarted the SQL server box and with no avil. So I reverted our backend to the access mdb file and told people to use the old client.
I am at a complete lose to why this is happening, if anybody has had any expericences like this or knows the cause please tell me.
Some information on the database in question.
It was made as an access 2 database all intergrated into one file, then it was seperated into two files (frontend and backend). Upgraded to Access 97, then to 2000 before this final update to MSSQL 2000.
The log system has two main tables. The first is the log title / info table which links (one to many) to a log entry table. This problem only occurs on the main log table and does not appear to be reoccurring anywhere else within the database. The main log table has just under 18,000 rows in it.
I am using Microsoft Access 2000 and wanted to know how to import data from another Access database that was done in Visual Basic. I know how to import flat-file database such as Excel but how do I import data that has a One-To-Many Relationship? The end user will need to transistion into the new database so I would need to update it once awhile. Thank you very much for your time and assistance.
I've just joined a company based in Scotland, they are running a multiple user access 2000 database: backend and front-end. Recently they have had an issue where a user inserting a new row in a table, as they do, the record above drops off the table (disappears/unrecoverable). My first impression has been that this is a DB corruption issue and as such have ran compact/repair.We are running this database on network server:
-Backend resides in central location -Frontend - Each user has their own front-end, storded on their personal network drive.
Would I be right in saying that the best solution would be to convert to newer version of access ?
I am working in MS Access 2000. I have a query that is returning a table with various types of data. The problem is I can't seem to find anywhere in the Access GUI that will show me the data types of columns it has returned so I can't manually create a table to hold the values returned by query. Question is two fold:
1. Is there a way in Access SQL to import data returned from a query into a table that is not yet defined. Some like this: a. Create a table that has a primary key but doesn't yet know the number of columns and/or data types of those columns. b. Import the data from a query into this table and have it create the columns and copy the data types and populate the table while also numbering each row by primary key.
or 2. Is there a way to find out what the data types are for a table returned by a query in MS Access. I have checked the properites of the query and have been up and down the gui looking but I can't find a way while looking at the data returned by a query to explicitely see the data type (i.e., number, Date/Time, etc..) used by each column.
I am working on an attendance file. I have created one MS access form and one excel sheet. On MS Access sheet I have Student ID, Date and Value. ON excel sheet I have Course, Student ID, NSN No and date.
I want data to be automatically appear on excel sheet from ms access form and after updating it or after transferring data i want these fields again empty and ready for next entry.
For example, If I type value .5 in ms access under 01-Jan-2014 for Student ID 1200001, value .5 should automatically appear in cell in ms excel sheet infront of same id (1200001) and under same date (01-jan-2014).
Everyday I have to generate a report in excel format and I need it to be added to ms access database. I was hoping to do this on a click of a button. Basically, since i have a new data everyday it should be added to the table.
We have an Access 2000 backend database resides in a network server drive while users connect to the backend tables with a mde file on their computers. All users have Access 2010 and the mde file was converted from the 2000 frontend with Access 2010.
The database have been running for a few weeks but recently users have been complaining about record lost on the backend table.We have also experienced one incident of data corruption where the main table could not be opened. After Compact & Repair, the table could be opened but a few records were showing xxxxx on all the fields and we have to delete and re-enter these records.Would they relate to using 2010 mde converted from 2000 frontend when the backend is still in 2000? I am a little nervous about converting both the frontend and backend to 2010 since I have heard various issues on the new version.
At the moment the company Im with uses Access 2000, however ive been told by a few people that Access 2000 had alot of issues and it would be worth informing the company to upgrade to 2003 asap. Is there any major concerns with 2000? Some of the databases currently being used are very large and complex. Any chance data could be lost/displayed incorrectly? etc
I'm new to MS Access. I want to know about compressed/reindexed databases.
What happens when a database is compressed? What happens when a database is reindexed? Why is it important to periodically compress and reindex a database?
I have records in the database that I need to pull up by local time zones, what would be the most effective way to do this?
I have a form that submits to an access database which has auto number enabled.. Trouble is that some of the submissions are missing and the database skips an ID number.
I need to develop an application that works in 2002. I tried to take a 2002 mdb, convert in 2002 to 2000 and try it on my machine at home. It didn't work and I couldn't find the missing reference. I then took an mdb that was originally a 2000 format, converted it to 2002 and it worked fine. So what I want to do is develop the app in 2000 and just convert it over to 2002. This allows me to work on it from home which is pretty important since my deadline is creeping closer. Am I ok doing this or am I courting disaster? Or is there another way of doing this?
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.
How unusual is it for a database to become MUCH smaller when converting it from 2000 to 2003 formats. I mean 600megs to 10 megs. And as far as I can tell all the records are intact....!
I have a rather large project that has been developed in Access 2000. Generally all my distributions have been to PC's with Access available. However, I do find that there are a few that don't. Obviously this is where Run time would be useful. Having never used it I have a few questions if someone could possibly help:-
1 If I have a program developed in Access 2k can it be converted to the MOD version to include runtime? 2 If there is a conversion process is it automatic or does it require extensive reworking of the project? 3 Is it still possible to purchase MOD 2000 or do I need to get an updated version and if so will that still work with Office 2k?
How do I copy the results of a query to a new table that serves as an archive? How can I then clear or reset the original query?
I am doing a project that records the names of students who have had more than 5 merits in school. I want to use this data to generate a certificate to give out at assembly and to send a letter home. I have run a count query but want to send the results to another table which acts as an archive. I want to have the original query reset. Can anybody give me any suggestions?
We are a school operating around 160 computers with Microsoft Office 2000 fully installed on all of them. There have been problems with Microsoft Access in one particular room where students frequently lose their Microsoft Access Reports as a result of clicking on Print, which is then followed by the following message:
Msaccess.exe - Application Error : The instruction at "0x77fcd79a" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "written".
This problem occurs when the students try to print their MSAccess Reports.
The computers in the entire school all have Windows 2000, latest service packs, patches, hotfixes and service packs for Office 2000, but for a reason we can't identify this only happens in one room. It is connected to a QMS Magicolor 2350.
I've got a fairly complex access 2000 database that's split into front and back ends.
There's 32 back end tables and a whole host of complex front end queries and forms. The whole thing's around 25,000 lines of code so not a 5 minute job to rebuild! (sorry but i just can't stop tweaking it!!)
I hate the idea of all that data moving across the network, and having to make the front end machines work so hard so I'd like to get the server doing it's fair share of work because it's got dual 3Ghz Xeon processors which aren't earning their keep! I was thinking about converting the mdb to SQL and although i could pay someone to do it for me, i do like to learn! (so when it breaks i'm not at anyone's mercy!!)
I assume there isn't an upsizing tool on the planet that will let me do this by clicking a button so can anyone point me in the right direction with regard to something decent that can automate as much as possible. PLUS a good source of information on the differentces between access and SQL so that i can start seeing how to accomplish with SQL what i'd do in Access?
I have 5 databases running 100% in Access 2000. We are switching to Office 2003 within a couple weeks via an upgrade. What should I do to prep my databases for the switch?
Is there any upconverting tool I need to do ect? Thanks.
