I want to create a database using MS Access that can be accessible by 80 users for information search purpose. At the same time at least 20 users out of 80 can make modifications. Need suggestion will that be possible in access.
The database will store in shared drive. Also want to know how to lock a record let say if user1 has access certain record for modifications than the second user can access database but not allow to modifying the record which is already under modification phase.
I am thinking about creating a DB using Access for a business. However, my wife mentioned to me that her company is looking at software for database work and has some Access DB's they are trying to convert because, according to a technical support person, Microsoft intends on getting rid of Access as a DB! I am posting here to ask anyone, professional or otherwise, if anyone has heard that Microsoft intends to stop supporting or implementing Access. Is Access 2003 the last version? I haven't been able to find out anything along this line. I thought, maybe Microsoft is thinking about supplanting Access with SQL Server. Before I go to the toil of building a DB system in Access, I want to know I am not wasting my time doing it. If anyone on this forum has heard a thing about Microsoft dumping Access, please let me know. Thank you. :o
Hi, I have a database which contains fields with information in many different languages. I seem to lose my japanese content from time to time. I cut and paste the information from a Word document and paste it into an Access field. It seem to work and I get the japanese text pasted. But I have lost it and now I just have all text replaced by small squares. How can I retrieve my japanese text?? What should I be looking for if I want to maintain a database in MS Access using Japanese, Chinese and other foreign language text in it? Bjorn

I want to disable a button right after click it. Because I could not disable a control that has got the focus, i tried to shift the focus to another control; however, all controls that I tried to shift the focus to don't support the method (SetFocus = true).
I want to do this on a subform's control, but I keep getting this error: Object does not support this property or method.
I have an access database that I developed while working for tech support at earthlink a while ago. If anyone is interested, I'd be happy to clean it up and post it in the examples. Some of it's features include: Tabbed Browsing Posting and manipulating web forms HTML Scraping Injecting information into other programs via APIA screenshot of it is below
i'm getting this message when i try and change a record in a table via a recordset... but i am using CursorType = adLockOptimistic which i thought let you make changes to the table
here is my code so far
Dim rst As ADODB.Recordset Set rst = New ADODB.Recordset rst.CursorLocation = adUseServer rst.CursorType = adLockOptimistic rst.Open "TBL_TmpSubmission", CurrentProject.Connection
If rst.RecordCount > 0 Then Do While Not rst.EOF MsgBox rst!PropertyType, vbOKOnly, "debug" If DCount("[PropertyType]", "[TBL_PropertyType]", "PropertyType = '" & rst!PropertyType & "'") <> 1 Then rst!PropertyType = DLookup("[PropertyType]", "[TBL_PropertyType]", "IDPropertyType = " & rst!PropertyType) MsgBox "property changed", vbOKOnly, "debug" Else MsgBox "good property", vbOKOnly, "debug" End If rst.MoveNext Loop End If
rst.Close
am i using the wrong combination or cursor and lock type here? reading the help it seems i should be able to make changes to the table.
I am writing a query that is master-detail in principal. But need other data from other 2 tables. I wonder if I can construct the query so that it contains the result set of more than one SQL statement. Thank you for your kindly help.
I get the message "The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Class does not support Automation or does not support expected interface"
I receive the message on a PC running Windows 7 Professional using the Access 2013 Runtime. This pc does not have Access 2013 installed.On my pc, I do not get the error. I have Access 2013 installed and run Windows 7 Professional SP1. The "code" which gives the error is as follows and is invoked by clicking a button on a form
Code: MsgBox "1" Dim rst As ADODB.Recordset MsgBox "2" Set rst = New ADODB.Recordset MsgBox "3"
[code]....
The error takes place after Msgbox "2" and before Msgbox "3".The strange thing is that I can run without a problem a sophisticated software package on the pc which gives the error, using Access 2013 Runtime. This package I converted from Access 2003.
So I finished my database :) ... then it was time to make it look as if it wasn't an Access DB. I read all the very helpful threads on converting to MDE, hiding access window, starting up my form, placing an icon in my main form title bar so I'm almost set but before I go ahead here is my concern:
So, basically I will make the application look like a stand-alone product and prevent the user from doing anything but using my forms. However, lets say in a month time the user wants to add some feature. Yes, I can keep the original DB and add the feaure on my version but what about all the records that were created in the meantime? How will I be able to import them then, especially if all the tables have autonumbers (which I don't know how to reset to blank in my original) and serve as the linking field for many records? All the relationships between the records would be messed up. (I'll also have to deal with the security and set it up since one of the tables will store credit card numbers.)
I and trying to link to Outlook 2007 using the "External Data/More/Outlook Folder option and keep getting the "Object Class does not Support the Set of Events" error message.
I can link to a DBF and Paradox file without any problems.
I am running Office 2007 Professional and Access 2007 and Windows 10.
I have also done the following:
1. Removed Office 365 2. Decompiled the Access VBA code and corrected any issues 3. Compacted/Repaired the database
I have attached a screen shot of the references that I have selected.
This is a new setup as I recently purchased a new PC and Windows environment. I still have the old PC running Windows XP with the same configuration and it also experiences exactly the same error message.
I have this below which some people cant run and some people can. All are using 2010 runtime version. Apart from the one guy who can run the macro who has full 2010 version. I have 2010 runtime installed and i can also run the macro fine.
Private Sub Option12_Click() On Error GoTo Option12_Click_err Dim CntlPay As String Dim Lable As String CntlPay = "D"
I have wrote a database in access 2010 and the database works fine for me (I am the db admin with full control).I gave the database to a group in which most of them also have no issue with the file. They are able to use the database with no issues..One of those members gets an error message when completing the initial step in the database: (select a drop down item from a combo box)
Code: The expression After Update you entered as the event propoerty setting produced the following error: Object or class does not support the set of events
Something I cant seem to understand is why is this happoening on 5 machines but not on the 6th, they all have the same PC set up so there should be no error on one particular machine.
I have distributed my front end on the shared drive for users to copy to their desktops.
In one form I have a formula in the query that show's the word 'Gap' if any of the 15 questions on the form is equal to 'fail'. It runs on current when the user is in a record it shows the word 'Gap' at the top header part of the form.
When the user opens the form they get an error message pop up that says "The expression On Current you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Object or class does not support the set of events."
Once they click 'ok' they are able to work in the form until they attempt to filter records by their name it pops up again.
I've tested on my end and no errors or issues come up.
Couple days ago our database was not opening, Access would open but show a blank workspace. Anyhow, we restored the database from Server and it worked on all 5 shared systems on company's network but this one computer. It is giving the error, "Object or class does not support the set of events."
I tried to copy new local folder but nothing. I checked the links and target folder it looks fine.
I tried to import the everything into new database but it said I don't have permission for that.
what's causing this issue and what can I do to fix it?
I am a newbie here so i dont know all the cool names and phrases for everything so be gentle with me :).
My boss wants me to make it so the address of a company automatically pops up in the database, so if they call multiple times, the user doesnt have to keep putting the address in. If the company hasnt called before, the user would have to fill out a company form that pops up if the companys name isnt already in the database. Any info on how to do this would be EXTREMELY helpful.
I also need to know how to make access send you an email if certain information hasn't been finalized after a certain period of time.
Thanks for your help guys. Ive been stuck on these problems for A WHILE to say the least...
I've built and implemented an Access 2010 application for a corporate client. It's entirely menu driven, with no user access to the navigation pane. It's split with multiple BEs on a share drive and the FEs on individual PCs (distributed via Auto FE Updater). Two hundred users have been defined to the application but so far there are only up to 10 max concurrent users at a time.
The clients want to add more users to the system but after that will go into maintenance and support mode. The question is how much I should charge for the maintenance and support service on a monthly basis.
I'm not looking for a $ amount as much as strategies/guidelines for pricing. The clients anticipate using the application for about four years, at which point a new, corporate-wide application should be rolled out and my app will get replaced by it. They will probably need to convert the data from my app into the new app, and will want/need occasional enhancements to the system over the next four years as well.
