Tables :: Splitting Database - Front End Does Not Link To All Tables In Back End
May 28, 2013I am splitting a database and have created the Back end already. When I create the front end and link to the tables on the back end...

View 1 Replies View RelatedA User-friendly Way To Link Tables In A Split Database
Feb 25, 2008Hi, all.
I have a "client/server" split Access 2003 database with an Interface file containing all the code/forms/queries and some system tables and also a Data Backend file, with all the data tables and table structure.
This is being deployed to multiple sites, each getting their own version of the backend, so sites will not be using the same backend between them all, rather multiple users in each site will all share that site's backend file.
Since users will deploy in different network locations, etc. they will have to re-link all tables. Is there a meaningful/user-friendly way of doing that without relying on user's knowledge of "Linked Table manager", etc.?
Thanks!
Tables :: Error -1002 - Link A Table From One Database To Another
Jun 27, 2013I simply want to link a table from one database to another but am getting an Error -1002 with the error description: "'|' is not a valid name. Make sure that it does not include invalid characters or punctuation and that it is not too long."
I have tried just creating a basic table with one field and linking it to another database and still getting the error. It happens when I compact and repair on close.
Seperate Database Records In Divs?
Feb 8, 2005I am trying to create a page that can display 4 different records from a database, each one in a different div container, for a news page.
I have an access database containing news records - headline, news and date. Each record also has its own auto-numbered ID.
So far I have managed to get the asp page to display all of the records in a list by using:
recordset.movenext
Loop
and I have managed to get just 1 displayed by using:
SQL = "SELECT * FROM tblNews WHERE ID=1" and changing the ID number.
But I can't seem to find a way to display each in a different div container on the same page. Can anyone help please? I think this is really obvious but I just can't see it!
Thanks.

I'm trying to import files from our DB2 database in which one file is created monthly and instead of manually importing / linking the files manually, I'm looking to have access link to the new file automatically.
The file names are structured as so..

Link Between Tables
Mar 3, 2007Hi All
I enter data in a form "WIP" that is based on a table named "WIP" in the form I have a command button. When I activate the command button it takes me into another form "Materials" which is based on a table named "Materials".
The data that I enter into "Materials" is not linked to the data ie Customer details which I have entered into "WIP".
My aim is to be able to report the materials used.
I have tried variations of relationships but am obviously missing something.
Thanks in Advance

How Do I Link These Tables
Oct 12, 2005I have a database with software
ID: autonumber
Name: text
Version: text (some say Beta etc)
Possibly 200 pieces of software
I have a database of computers
ID: autonumber
RoomName: text
ComputerName: text
Description: text
I want to link them so a computer can have up to 200 pieces of software in it or just one piece.
I dont want a table with 200 boolean fields although thats how i will end up doing it if i cant any other way.
Chances are each computer will have about 20 - 30 bits of software installed and therefore the table shouldnt need to be huge.
Anyone have any ideas how i can link these and keep the second table small. Surely i can say Computer [2] has software installed [2, 4, 5, 28, 224] but i dont know how to.
Thanks

Cannot Link Tables
Mar 21, 2006I have a spilt database and both ends sit on a server. The front end has a short cut on the desktop from five machines.
On one machine I can access the backend but it i try and relink the tables, the linked table manager is empty and i cannot and the "always prompt for new location" option is not available so i cannot even do it individually that way.
Any suggestions of why this would be? Is it a security user issue (though i haven't specifically set up any user or workgroup securities)
I have even tried holding down the Shift key and that doesn't work!!
Thanks
How Do I Link Email Text To An Access Database?
Feb 3, 2006I'm creating a contacts database in Access. My emails are saved on Novel's GroupWise (web-based, not a client application). My database is on my hard drive and contains the usual: name, address, preferences, etc.
Is there some way to link the actual text of a customer's email to the entry in my database that deals with that customer (for example, field 1= name, field 2= phone number, field 3= actual text of email)? If the web source is a problem, would there be a way to do it if I imported the emails to Outlook or Outlook express?

General :: Change Link From One External Database To Another?
Feb 26, 2013I've got an Access 2010 application that currently links to a SQL Server 2000 database. I need to change the link to a SQL Server 2008 database on a different server. Where do I go to change the link? When I click on External Data, ODBC Database, I only get an option to import source data. I don't want to import any data. I just want the application to link to a different external database. If I go ahead and click OK, I choose my ODBC connection and log in to the 2008 database. Now I've got a list of "import objects" to choose from. I choose one table (just for testing; I actually want to link with all tables), it says it imported successfully, but when I view the data in that table from Access, it's the same old 2000 database data.

Link Tables Programatically
Apr 21, 2006Is it possible to unlink and link to tables in a back end using VBA in the front end?
I need to do this or something similar because when I send updates of the front end out I may have added an extra table and thus want to be able to get the user to run an update module to link any new tables.
Not sure if this is at all possible???
Any ideas???

Link Tables Via Code
Feb 7, 2007Hey everyone I'm new here but pretty familiar with Access etc. I am extrememl;y stumped on this and I have never attempted this so any answers and details would be helpful. As we all know this is a learn new things as you develop type of application or at least for me.
I have a database that exists in one building and is functionnig fine using linked tables (File/Get External Data/Link Tables) but I now need to make this same application work for multiple locations which each have its own tables that are seperate from each other location. I was thinking a Main form that opens with radio buttons and based on the one you select would determine which tables it would be linked to when it opens. I figured Radio1 be SEDC, Radio2 be SWDC.
I have a database I have setup as a storage database for just the tables for each location that are on different servers in each location to increase traffic speeds.
Example:
SEDC (RadioButton1)
SEDC Database is located on a erver with 50 different tables in it "//sedc1/data/shared/warehouse/SEDC Warehouse.mdb"
SWDC (RadioButton2)
SWDC Database is located on server with same tables in it but different data for that location "//swdc1/data/shared/warehouse/SWDC Warehouse.mdb"
So on So on...

Using Like Operator To Link Tables
Nov 28, 2007I have 2 tables, an Oracle source table and an Access table. The data in the Oracle table has Item names, however they tend to end with month and date and other misc info. I set up the Access table with the cleaned up versions of the Item names (took out the excess crap) to be able to set up a query that would pull in data from the Oracle table that had Item descriptions Like the descriptions in the Access table. That is working great, however, i would also like to pull in another field from the Access table to categorize these items in to groups. Once I do this, each record shows up 4 times (the number of categories that exist). How do I link these tables to allow me to do this? None of the standard link types work since the fields are not equal but are Like each other.
