Database Locking During Query Creation - Need Help!!

Oct 13, 2005

why is it that as soon as you fix one problem another one needs dealing with :mad:

OK, the problem i have is that i have a BE/FE configuration database in a multiuser environment. I have built all the tables and the relationships in the BE configuration. In the FE configurations i have built the main forms to input data. It has no come to the point where i have begun to create the queries to allow reporting and data searching. And this is where i have a problem. I am trying to create a simply query and i do mean simple (at the moment i simply want 2 fields from 1 table and 2 fields from another table) no calculations or anything i just want it to display the data. I have tried creating this query numerous times and i keep getting the same error.

"The wizard is unable to open your query in datasheet view, possibly because another user has a source table open in exclusive mode. Your query will be opened in design view"

the above is the error i get when i use a wizard to create the query, after getting this message and going into design view i try to view the results in datasheet view and get the following error "Type Mismatch in expression"

If i dont use a wizard and create it in design view, when i go to view the results i get the second error message everytime.

If i create a query from 1 table only the query works without errors, but i always get errors when i have more than one table in the query.

Also i am the only person with the database open so therefore it is total impossible for the database to be open by another user in exclusive mode.

Anyone know what the problem might be or how to fix. Your answers will be very much appreciated.

Locking A Table Based On Query Results

Aug 24, 2006

I have a query that checks an expiration date field and displays the word "Expired" in another field if applicable. This query is used to look up items, then the user would enter whether or not it is approved right in the resulting data grid thereby entering that approval into the table being used for the query. Can I do something with the query so that if the item returned has expired, a user would not be able to enter anything into the approval field? Something like, if field1 = "expired" then lock the table? I can't use a form, I have to just do it in the basic query or forget it. I would very much appreciate any suggestions!

Split DB, Keeps Locking Up

May 24, 2005

Hi, I just recently split my Access db (FE/BE), copied the FE to each of the clients, and it seemed to be working fine. This morning however, two users went into the db, and the second user kept getting the error can't find the file \servernameshare_namedb_fe.mdb. Now, none of my users can launch it. How can I resolve this? Will this keep happening?

Locking Down An .mdb File

Feb 8, 2006

I have to send an access application out to some people who need to preview it's functionality. What is the best way for me to send this .mdb file to them so they can use it (tables, forms, queries, macros and functions) but still keep them from opeing up the objects and viewing the code behind them? Is there a way of sending the .mdb file out so that objects cannot be seen in design mode and the objects cannot be viewed other than through the flow of the application? As you might have already guessed, I am new at securing an .mdb file for outside use. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Locking A Invoice

Jan 18, 2007

Hi,

I don't know whether you can help :D But i am in need of some code/guidence, or a way to go about trying to do what i want to achieve.

Basically, i am creating a invoice producing software in Microsoft Access, based upon Computing parts resaleing.

Because the supplier, i use changes the prices daily, when i type the products into the Parts Table, the price being typed in will change for the next customer to have the same part.

Basically because i am using this software to produce Profit and Loss, The invoice will be looking back at the Parts table, and changing the unit costs for invoices which are say weeks old.

I am wondering whether i can "lock" the invoice so it cannot be updated from the Parts list and keep the profit the same, so i get an accruate result when i come to look at it.

I will apprechaite any help or guidance.

Regards

Locking Down Access '07

Mar 19, 2007

So with the help of many of you on this site, I was able to build my first Access database. Thank you all.

Now that I'm all done, I have one final thing to figure out.

I have incorporated user authentication into the database for a minimal level of security. Everything finally works like it should, however there is one "flaw" I have found.

In "Access Options" I have the login form set to open when the DB is open, and navigation and ribbon/toolbars are deactivated so only the login form and "Home" ribbon are showing when the DB is opened.

The problem with this, is that a curious user that shouldn't have access could get access fairly easily.

If they right clicked the "Home" ribbon, then left clicked "Customize Quick Access Toolbar", they could change the default form to whatever they wanted. Thus bypassing the login form and nullifying any security that it offered. Ideally, there should be no ribbons or toolbars. I just don't know how to get rid of them.

Has anyone else run into this problem?

MDE Locking Issue

Jan 15, 2008

I have an Access Front-end that I made into an MDE file. I loaded the MDE onto a server and now there are multiple people accessing the MDE file via shortcuts on their desktop. I noticed since this update went into effect that the MDB file that the MDE file was made from is being locked when people are using the MDE file. I thought I could have made a mistake with one of the shortcuts and that a user was accessing the MDB file instead of the MDE but I had the Network Admin check and no one was in the MDB file at the time it was locked.

I'm wondering if the MDB file should be locked while a user is in the MDE file or if it's a bug?

Thanks,
Michael O'Brien

Locking Down Records?

Feb 13, 2008

Is there any way to "lock down" newly created records somehow, so that only the person who created them can edit them after the fact?

Obviously, this would require some kind of system where everyone logged in with some kind of userID and password...and even then, I don't know how such a security system could be set up.

Is this possible? If SO, are there any examples of it anywhere that I could check out?

Thanks in advance!

Why Is Locking Occuring?

Feb 8, 2005

I have a fixed length .txt which I am linking into a MS Access 2002 d/b.
My options are set to :
default open mode -shared
default record locking - no locks
Open database using record level locking is unchecked
the (datasheet) form is set to:
allow edits/deletions/additions - no
recordset type - snapshot
record locks - no locks
the text box objects are set to:
enabled - no
locked - no

I have no requery actions associated with any events at all.

My problem is that while the form is active I am unable to open the source .txt and if it is already open I cannot save it. There is obviosuly a lock occuring on the .txt object - how can I prevent it occuring?

thanks!

Feb 17, 2005

I have looked on the forums and cant quite find what im looking for so i wanted to ask you lot for help.

I have a database i have created.

It will be sent out to people to populate via a series of forms i have created.

How can I lock it down so that:
1) you cant access any of the database apart from the forms
2) Lock it so no one can get in to view the code anywhere or make any amendments to the forms and database what so ever

Records Locking

Aug 11, 2005

I update the table through a form.
Each page in the form updates one complete row of the table.

I am trying to find a method to block each row of the table (or equivalenty each record in the form) after completing the entry in order to prevent unwanted deletion or alteration of the entries of this record in the future.
Is this possible?

Locking Records?

Sep 30, 2006

I’m new to access but I have created a table with a form linked to it. It shows one record per page. I just want to be able to lock and unlock individual records in the form by using a checkbox. This will prevent me from accidently making a change to an old record.

For example, when the checkbox is unchecked. the current record on the form can still be edited. When the checkbox is checked, the record can only be viewed, not edited. I still need to be able to navigate through the locked record and create a duplicate from the locked record though. Does anyone know a simple way to do this? My guess that it has to do with the AfterUpdate event? Thanks for any help.

Table Locking

Dec 18, 2006

I have a single table app with a form. The form pretty much just displays the data that is in the table in a more user friendly view. Right now when a user enters data into the form it automatically adds it to the table. What I want is for the table to not be updated until the user clicks a Save button. Can anyone tell me how to do this?

Locking Record

Dec 19, 2006

Had a good look at previous posts but couldn't find exactly what I am after.
Having entered a record I don't want users to go back and edit/amend the input. I can see how to lock and unlock records but controlling this wilt say a checkbox also means any user can 'uncheck' and edit. Is there a method to restrict who can unlock ('uncheck') and edit a record, other than using Access Security permissions.
Thanks

Website .mdb Locking Up

Nov 18, 2004

I am having a problem with locking, and it is crashing our website.
I suspect it is a locking problem because everytime the database goes down, I ftp into the site and see the dreaded *.ldb file.
Access is suspose to support from 15 to 20 concurrent users, right? The log files show no more than two or three users accessing the database at the same time. By "same time" I mean within one second.

Below is the code which updates the database. Can anyone see anything wrong with this?

Also, if I wrote the information to a text file with the FileSystemObject instead to Access, would I solve the problem of locking?

BEGIN CODE -----------------

sub OpenDB(sConn)
'Opens the given connection and initializes the recordset
conn.open sConn
set rs.ActiveConnection = conn
rs.CursorType = adOpenStatic
end sub


OpenDB sConnStats

'Get ID's by Names
lIdOS = GetIdOS(sOS)
lIdColor = GetIdColor(sColor)
lIdBrowser = GetIdBrowser(sBrowser)
lIdPath = GetIdPath(sPath)
lIdRef = GetIdRef(sReferer)
lIdRes = GetIdRes(sResolution)

sSQL = "SELECT * FROM Stats"
rs.Open sSQL,,,adCmdTable

'Save the data
rs.AddNew
rs("OsID") = lIdOS
rs("ColorID") = lIdColor
rs("BrowserID") = lIdBrowser
rs("PathID") = lIdPath
rs("RefID") = lIdRef
rs("ResID") = lIdRes
rs("Date") = date
rs("Time") = time
rs("IP") = sIP
rs.Update

'Terminate database connection
CloseDB

Help In Locking Database

Feb 1, 2005

I am new at this stuff. So please excuse my ignorance. I created a database which a lot of my colleagues want a copy. I don't mind giving them a copy. However I don't want them to change the design or copy it to give to others. I don't mind them adding their records.

Is this possible to do? Or should I just keep the database to myself.


Thanks in advance to your advice.

Locking Problem

Sep 8, 2005

I am using access to connect to a ODBC Data Source which is linked to data on an SQL Server.

The problem I am having is I am using the following code, behind a button on a form, to add a new record to a table. After the code is run the record it adds is constantly locked, even after closing access. The only way I can do anything with the record is through the Enterprise Manager on the Server.

The error I get is 'The Microsoft Jet database engine stopped the process because you and another user are attempting to change the same data at the same time.' I am the only person using this database.

Code: Dim Rst As New ADODB.Recordset Rst.Open "tblLeaveTemp", CurrentProject.Connection, adOpenDynamic, adLockOptimistic Rst.AddNew Rst.Fields("StaffID") = 999 Rst.Update Rst.Close Set Rst = Nothing

Sorry was not to sure which forum to post on (SQL/Access) if needs be I will repost on SQL.

Cheers
