Hi, i want to add security into my database, but i dont want to use the built-in workgroup security.
Is it possible to create a login screen that will allow different access rights depending on the username? If so can sum1 please help me with the code?
Cheers Guys :)
This 2007 is driving me to drink.
Convert from 2003 to 2007 a few minor problems.
Did not save in a accdb and accde file format.
The users I had listed in wrkgroup did not come over. Ok no problem I will add them.
I located the users amd Permissions in 2007.
My question when I add the users and assign the permissions, will they get a log on screen like it did for 2003?
I have tried to make a login screen, I have also searched for information and tried some of the examples but, I just can't get one to work.
Is there someone or somewhere where I can get information on how to build one step by step in simple easy instructions....(access 2003).
Also, how do you get access to open all the windows, tables, queries etc in full screen mode.
I have expaneded them and shut it down and then reopened it but they still want to open out of full screen mode.
Thanks, everyone has been a great help in creating my first Access program.
How can you get the user's logon name or ID?
View 2 Replies View RelatedEvery time I open up access I get a logon box which asks for the admin password. This applies to any database project I open. I for the life of me can't figure out how it was turned on, but it still has the generic password associated with it(thank god).
I am trying to rid myself of having to type it in every single time I open up a database project. I have tried to delete it in the security section of tools and it won't allow me to delete the admin.
This is incredibly annoying because neither of the database projects requires a password, and I am not even the one that created the projects. I am merely a user.
Any suggestions on how to rid myself of this annoying problem?
I use MS Access a lot for my work but a few days ago when I opened Access it asked for a username and password. I didn't set anyway passwords so tried to log on using the username: admin and a blank password which didn't work. I have tried every username and password combination that I could have used but nothing seems to work.
Is there anyway for sorting this out so that I can use Access again?
Previously posted in General but got no response so decided to move to forms area.
I want to hide as many toolbar options/menus as I can on startup, so the user is very limited as to what they can do with the database.
I am using the multiuser logon option so each user has their own user name and password.
By hiding the menu, it also locks out the option to change their password.
I want to give users the ability to load the User and Group accounts/change logon screen only.
What I was thinking was calling this option from a command button on a form.
ie, Once clicked, it takes you to the generic Change Logon screen with the need for the menus to be enabled.
Can this be done?
If not, is there an alternative.
Thanks

I have a database that I have secured by using Access 2003 user security. I need for the database to allow the user to login and once they have logged, to open a form and filter out only their open "tickets" - records.
How can I do this?
Thanks in advance.
:confused: :(
I think I am in the correct area of this forums, if I am not, please forgive me. Anyway, this is way over the top of my head and I need desperate help! Here goes…..I am finally finished exporting an Excel spreadsheet that contained over 6,000 entries into a continuous form in Access 2003, and before I move it to the shared drive, I have a few questions/concerns.
I work with a group of employees totaling 15. Out of the 15 of us, 4 will be issued editing rights, and the others read only rights and I will be the administrator/creator/owner of the database. Here are my concerns:
1. It is a MUST that the 4 with editing rights be able to work in the same form, (the form consists of daily updates i.e.: (purging, entering, deleting and fixing of data) in different areas of this form, and maybe at the same time?
2. In addition, will the 4 of us be able to save the updates entered separately, and have the most recent data which was entered updated for others to view? (I know in Excel we were able to do so).
3. Will the users with read only rights be able to fill out other forms in the database or should I assign some degree of editing rights?
4. Also, although rare, will there be a problem if all 15 employees are in the same database completing other forms at the same time?
5. We have a few employees who work from home and log into our system via Citrix. Will they have a problem logging into the database and completing the forms?
This is where I am TOTALLY CLUELESS and need help DESPERATELY!! Is there a step by step way of doing this? (please say yes! please say yes!) I am sure I will need to create a shortcut for all users and I will also need help on how to do that also. Currently, there is no user id or password set up for anyone of us since we have a specific shared drive designated for our group/department.
I welcome any suggestions you may have.
THANKS!
I have a logon form that always contains a value in the user name and password fields. How can I do it that these two fields are empty when the logon form is displayed? When I put this code in a program text12.value="" then it delete user name in database.
View 3 Replies View Relatedhi there,
I'd like to ask the solution for my problem.
I made a new project using ms access 2003,crystal report 9, and visual studio 2005.
I just made a simple access dbase with 1 table(Table 1) and protected with password, o I forgot this table has 2 field(id and desc).
After that I made simple report that using DAO connectivity(save data with report option is disabled).
At last I made simple program(windows app) using visual studio 2005.
I put the CrystalReportViewer component, and these is the code :
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace prj
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void crystalReportViewer1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = System.Environment.CurrentDirectory + "\Report1.rpt";
crystalReportViewer1.LogOnInfo[0].ConnectionInfo.UserID = "Admin";
crystalReportViewer1.LogOnInfo[0].ConnectionInfo.Password = "12";
crystalReportViewer1.LogOnInfo[0].ConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = System.Environment.CurrentDirectory + "\db.mdb";
crystalReportViewer1.LogOnInfo[0].ConnectionInfo.ServerName = System.Environment.CurrentDirectory + "\db.mdb";
}
}
}
and the problem is when I move the access database file to other location, the viewer shows a box to be confirmed by my UserID and password,
my question is how must I write in the program so that the box doesnt come out.
thanks

Hello all,
I have this splash screen, which welcomes all the users. It has an OK command button that exits the screen, and a checkbox that says "Do not show this screen again". I still do not have the code behind the checkbox. Thus I was wondering if there is a way where I could entirelly close or "get rid" of the splash screen until the user loggs in again. Because right now there is no code behind it, so everybody that checks it and click OK, leaves the screen. But they can still open it, if they select the "splash form".
i have spash screen that runs for about 10 seconds, would like to reduce to about 4 seconds any ideas
seee script below.
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private Sub Form_Close()
DoCmd.OpenForm "Switchboard"
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Timer()
On Error GoTo Err_Form_Timer
DoCmd.Close
Exit_Form_Timer:
Exit Sub
Err_Form_Timer:
MsgBox Err.Description, , "ASSETSonTRACK"
Resume Exit_Form_Timer
End Sub

Hi all,
I was wondering if it is possible to use a splash screen in the middle of your program? Ex. Can I have a splash screeen to display at the beginning of my database and then have another splash screen open during my program. If i click on a command button to display a form, cause I have a splash screen appear before that form load?
Is till possible while using Data Access Pages as well?
thanks in advance

View 8 Replies View Relatedi am editing the user interface for operators.
here is the issue:
operators are entering data but sometimes forget to put the part serial number. they then go to the entry.
this is what i want to do:
the operator will not be able to go the next screen (complete the entry) unless they enter the part serial number. where and what should i enter that will prevent the issue?
much thanks.
How to I get the screen to show the top of the form?
Solid lines and xs show what is shown on the screen.
This is used for bigger resolutions. I am modifying the layout of the forms depending on the screen resolution.
Also what is the highest resolution anyone has seen an access database running at?
Auto resize and Auto Centre are both already set to no.
Using access 2000. There are no scroll bars on the form.

I have a button on a form which closes the form and opens a different one. This causes the screen to "flash" as one is closed, the main menu becomes visible very briefly and then the new form opens.
In Microsoft Excel I used to use the VBA code:
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
to prevent this and only allow the final state to be displayed. I've tried this with Access and it doesn't seem to work.
Is there an equivalent?
Gary
Is there a way a form can resize themselves depending on the screen resolution different computers use??
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a form that has a bar down the left side of my form that is right next to the navaigation bar. It has a arrow pointing toward the form. If I click on it nothing happens. Don't know what it is and would like to get rid of it if possible.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've had a search and can't find anything along these lines...
I've got some code which plays about with reports and it looks awful when it's running - is there an equivalent of Excel's "Application.ScreenUpdating = False" functionality in Access (2000)?

Hi, I hope someone can help! I have purchased a programme that operates using MS Access. The software loads and functions perfectly on my desktop computer, when I put it onto my laptop, it loads but when I agree to the terms and conditions a switchboard should open but all I get is a grey blank screen with only file, window and help. I did have Nortons 2005 internet suite on it but I have removed that thinking it had something to do with that, restarted my computer removed and reloaded the software and the same happens. I think there is something wrong with the settings on the laptop or some form of script blocking. I am absolutesly exasperated. Please help with any suggestions as I know that the software is functioning and I know that Access is functioning and obviously Access thinks it is displaying everything or there would be an error box. Please help!!
