If I start access and try to create a new database or view any database after a second or so this dialog box saying access needs to close appears. It has only happened after I closed the program and it asked if i wanted to save the current dbase. If I view the offending database (by copying it via a pen drive) on my other computer every thing works perfectly!
I have tried the "repair program", same result. I have reinstalled the program, same result. I have totally uninstalled Office XP professional and reinstalled it SAME RESULT! As I am not a programmer I am at a loss!
We are having a problem with mulitple users leaving an Access db open and then I am not able to make new reports, etc. without calling everyone to close their session.
Is there a way to automatically close a db if user has not used in certain amount of time?
I am trying to make on load even to check if server side applicate FE is same as of client side FE. For this I am quering a field to check no and if it is not same then to start a batch file which copies and replaces client side FE.
Problem is if access application is running, it gives error. So I need to close the db and replace application.
I know xcopy command to replace file but do no how to trigger close application.

I've started getting this vague and in no way helpful message every time I attempt to look at any of the VBA behind my forms, modules, etc.
Luckily, the front end is stored separately from the data, but it's still preventing me from making changes to the forms.
I assume it means corruption of some kind has occurred, but I'm unclear as to what has caused it. Clicking on 'Debug' does nothing. Immediately below the above message it asks if I want to compact and repair the database. I say 'yes' and this also achieves nothing.
In addition, I have tried the following to fix it:
1) Opening the database window and go to Compact and Repair, via the Tools menu. This appears to fix the problem, in that I can then view the VBA code. However, the next time I log out and back into the db, I get the same problem all over again. 2) I am currently importing all of the items (forms, tables, menus, macros - the lot) from the problematic databasse into a blank one, in the hope that this will fix things. This is either taking an extremely long time or the process is hanging. Does anyone know how long this typically takes and what 'Task Manager' should say is happening? The db is 42.5Mb, if that makes a difference.
The above are the only suggestions I've been able to find.
1) Is there anything else that I can try to fix this?
2) What has happened to start causing this problem? I've run through suggested things like suddenly closing the db incorrectly, opening it using another application, etc. and none of these apply.
I have Access as front end and SQL Server as back end. The Access application is placed on a common network drive for theusers to access it. The compact on close option is enabled when the access application is closed.
I have a local copy of the access app. When I close the app, it takes ony a few seconds. But when on a network drive, it is taking 2 mins.I just wanted to know if the time taken to close the application on the network drive can be brought down without disabling the compact on close option.

I am using a database name as school. having a form name as form01.with cmd button close which close the form. I want to close form with ms Access database. So when user click close button application database will be closed.
How would I use the Access 2010 setting, 'Compact on close'?We have a back end on a server and many users with front ends on their computers. So would I set 'Compact on close' on the back end? And then it would compact when the last user logged out?
"how to COMPACT the DB by introducing delay of 10 seconds and then close the DB".In the Database, I'm able to accomplish the "Compact" the database using the function below.
Function Compact() SendKeys "%(FMC)", False End Function
As my DB is quite huge, the Compact action takes around 10 seconds to complete.Now, i would like to Close the Database after Compacting the DB. I tried including "DoCmd.Quit" in the function. The commands in the function, closes the DB but the Compact function doesn't seem to have executed as it needs 10 seconds to complete.
Function Compact() SendKeys "%(FMC)", False DoCmd.Quit End Function
how to introduce this delay of 10 seconds and then close the DB.

:mad: I could really use some help here! Apparently, completing a mail merge automation process is much more complicated than I originally thought. I have it doing absolutly everything I need it to do (open merge document, merge data, print, and close all in the background) but I am missing one critical but probably simple step. I want to merge just the CURRENT record only, not the entire database. I've read all 500+ posts concerning merging, but I'm still lost.
-how do I specify just the current record's information? -do I need to create bookmarks, and how do I do this? -how do I properly use the WHERE statement?
This may be the last thing I need to do with my database, if I can get it working right. Currently, it's trying to print all 883 records and takes about 10 minutes to run the command (probably because it's trying to pull all of the records instead of just one.) I will post my code, if you like. I know this is simple, but I can't work it out on my own. Please help me!
I am using code in Access to run a merge in Word. I'll call the database containing the function (MergeWord) that runs the merge Database1. The table used in the merge is in a different database. I'll call the database that contains the table Database2. When the merge is run, another instance of Access is automatically opened with Database2 open. How do I close the second instance of Access (Database2)?
Here's my code so far: Function MergeWord() Dim ObjWord As Word.Document Set ObjWord = GetObject("H:SHAREDFORMSTest.doc", "Word.document") ObjWord.Application.Visible = True ObjWord.MailMerge.OpenDataSource NAME:="H:AccessDatabase2.mdb", Linktosource:=True, Connection:="TABLE NewFileExport" ObjWord.MailMerge.Destination = wdSendToNewDocument ObjWord.MailMerge.Execute ObjWord.Application.NormalTemplate.Saved = True ObjWord.Activate ObjWord.Close False
We have a couple Access 2000 database's that are updated from Oracle data each night. There is a routine that opens Access, updates, then closes. However, on numerous occations, when it closes, the ldb file is still there. I can not delete the file without rebooting the server which I do not want to do every day.
Also, I noticed that the ldb file date is changed when I exit Access not when the db is opened. I thought the opposite was suppose to happen.
i have close button on my form made thru the command button. But it does not show an error message when the form closes if information has not been entered in the reqired fields. it does not save the field though. how can i get the error messages to be shown before the form closes asking the suer to enter the missing data. thanks
When the user clicks to close the form the Before Update event runs, and has the following code to check that all the required fields are completed:
If IsNull(Me.ToxReceived) Then stdresponse = (MsgBox("You must enter the toxicology received date before continuing." & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & _ "Do you want to do that now? Click YES to return to complete the form, click NO to undo the record", vbYesNo, "Missing Data"))
If stdresponse = vbYes Then Me.ToxReceived.SetFocus
Else Cancel = True Me.Undo Exit Sub End If End If
If the user clicks no, and the record is undone, how do I get the close form event to still continue?
