I am having trouble with the format of dates comming from access, if I view a table in access with a field of Date/Time the date is formatted correctly as dd/mm/yyyy, but when I retreve the date from my ASP page the format changed to mm/dd/yyyy. I can successfully change the format using a date format function but is there a way of getting access to send the date in the correct format in the first place or know why it's doing this. I am using access 2003 and the following connection string
My main experience is with MySQL and PHP so I'm kindof stumbling around in the dark here. Heres my story:
We recieved a new server and migrating from (Windows Server 2000, IIS 5.0, Access 2000) to (Windows Server 2003, IIS 6.0, Access 2003) has been nothing but problems.
I have setup IIS to work with ASP, I've also setup a system DSN. The access file was copied over from the previous server. We're running Access 2003 and now I can't seem to get this ASP script to work.
When I try to upload a file to the script I get this error:
Line: 42 Char: 7 Error: HELP!!! Error: [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Invalid SQL statement expected 'DELETE','INSERT','PROCEDURE','SELECT', OR 'UPDATE'. Code: 0 Url: (URL address blocked: See forum rules)
Its included in a file called FileRead.htm here is the part that refers to the error lines: Code: var TheFile, FileStrm;// Retrieved field namesvar M_ssn, M_inits, M_Lname, M_Fname, M_DSSN, M_ruc, M_paycode;var M_normamt, M_payamt, M_pgrp, M_poe, M_pltcd, Payrollnum, Payrolldate;// var Trash, FieldData, FieldNames;var TrashLineNum = 1;// Create the file Stream Object (ReadOnly)TheFile = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");FileStrm = TheFile.OpenTextFile(FName,1,false);// Setup the Database Connectionvar SQLCommand, TheRS, TheConnection, DSNString, Commands, MyDC;FieldNames = new Array("ssn","inits","lname","fname","dssn","ruc","cco", "payamt","normamt","notsureone","pgrp","poe", "pltcode","recstatus","paychgflg","paystatuscode", "payrollnum","payrolldate");// Connect the the DatabaseDataLib.ConToDB();MyDC = DataLib.GetDC();// Get Payroll NumberPString = prompt("Enter Payroll Number","025");Payrollnum = parseInt(PString,10);// Get Payroll DateDString = prompt("Enter Payroll Date","20000101");Payrolldate = DateLib.FromMil(DString);// Setup the Database Connectionvar NumRecs = 0;//MyTest = DataLib.GetRS("PaydayUpdate1");alert("About to cross into the CurExtract!!!");MyRS = DataLib.GetRS("SELECT * FROM CurExtract");
I set an alert after this line but it doesn't pop up.
ANY HELP WOULD BE VERY GREATLY APPRECIATED. I'll be checking this very frequently.
I would like to convert a database, which was made for me, in order to enable it to be used on my current system.
I get the error message below when trying to open the database in Microsoft Access 2003.
The database was made using Microsoft Access 2.0.
Will I need Microsoft Access 2.0 to update/delete the database all the time?
Or can I convert this to be used with Microsoft Access 2003?
I have tried opening the file exclusively and I get the same error.
I have selected Show Help and it advises me to import all the objects from the database into a new database. This can`t be achieved as I can`t open the file to retrieve the contents.

Hi helpers, I need to have a specialized field for my voucher's local date which is totaly based on different calendar and formats with the system's. (English) So I created a feild in my table, as text data, and gave it a YYYY/MM/DD input mask in forms, but this field in many places like combo boxes, and reports controls is shown as a number, such as 31940. pls note that there is no similar calendar format in Windows system for my purpose. How can I avoid this, I mean I need this text (my local calendar date) to be shown as it is and entered. I dont need this feild for calculations, so text is appropriate. thanks in advance.
I am new to Access and I have just imported my old ham radio logs from a DOS based Smart database - rememeber that one.
I have created a reasonable functioning table. I have also created a Query to sort certain records for which I want to print labels to affix to my radio card which I wish to send to other radio stations (called QSL cards). I have created a Report to run the Query and to print a label. Here is my label. It is a mixture of text strings and data from my log database Query.
To Radio 9U9Z QSL QSO dd/mm/yy UTC Freq Mode RST 24-Feb-07 18:44:00 18.148 ssb 55 73's de Mark N1XX (WAB 11XXX)
Here is the code for the date time etc line - the 3rd line down on the label above - taken from the design view
I am not sure how to format the date to print just the hours and minutes. I would have hoped that since the main log table was using a short time that it would have folowed automatically. In fact the time was printing as 12 hour time and I had to go into my Windows XP preferences and change the pc to a 24 hr clock to get it to print as a 24 hour clock. I tried setting the pc to an hrs and minutes time but it didn't fix my label format. It still shows seconds. I would like to get label to print 24hr hours and minutes and be able to set my pc back to a 12 hour clock format.
Thanks for your help. I still have loads to learn with this database program.
I am constructing a databse for Time and Attendance and wish to have a cumulative total column for the hours worked in the month, the Time in/out, lunch and TotalHours fields are using the ShortTime format but when the total hours exceed 23:59, obviously the field will not accept this Data, any ideas how i can record the TotalHours worked in a month. Many thanks in advance for any suggestions.
I need to format a worksheet in excel after I transfer data to it. I createobject("excel.application") to open an excel spreadsheet. My problem is I need to freeze the first three rows, i.e when you scroll down the spreadsheet the first 3 rows always stay in view. The only way I have seen to do this is use the windows menu form the excel application. I am creating this excel spreadsheet each time a report is run. Does anyone know how to this is VBA??

Ok so I have a new project. I have run all queries and appended them to my tab inventory. My mission is to take all of the query's and create a table that combines all missing parts info (I.E.> date, part#, plant, location, inventory, reorder pt.) How do i do this and if you need more information please message me back. I would greatly appreciate any help.
I have a report writer in access which i use to generate reports from act! (a CRM software by sage).
Recently, there has been some changes and development in act! software (we added new fields into it). I am trying to update the tables in access with the new fileds, but am not able to do so.
For a databse which I am going to create, I would like to have an authentication system which utilises the database users which I specify, however instaed of using a password the idea would be to use a fingerprint scanner to logon. T^his would be for an A - Level IT project and I would seriously like to know how to integrate biometric security into a database. If anyone knows how to do this please post CLEAR instruction possibly with some SCREENSHOTS if possible.
This query is in relation to an Access 97 database.
A problem that we are consistently having is that whenever people are using the database under different user names, it only allows one user at a time to use it. So basically if three of us are on it updating files or enquiring on client details, two of us are locked out leaving only one in. Any help in this matter is greatly appreciated.
Please consider the situation below: There is a central server and there are many client PCs connected to the server. On each client PC, there is an access database file that will be frequently updated by the user of the PC.
What I want to do is to allow the user on each of the client PC to backup their database file to the central server;
At the server side, it is free to use any architecture(eg using file system or another database to store the file) to facilitate the backup purposes. One of simplest solution is to upload the entire database file to the central server everytime. However, the problem is the access database file on each client PC is quite big, hence it is better not to upload the entire file but only to upload the updated data to the central server.
Is there a way to synchronise the data with central server without upload the entire database file? What kind of architecture should built up in the central server if there is a way?
First up, a pre-emptive request to excuse me if I show my ignorance - I'm not really an Access user/developer, I'm a SCM person.
We have a team that develops Access dbs and they are looking to integrate better with ClearCase. At present, they use the UNIX client and transfer whole, binary Access dbs, then source-control the binary file. They would like to be able to integrate better - my understanding, from them, is that VSS will control individual tables/forms, etc. I assume this is because it integrates via the SCC interface.
I cannot find anything about the SCC interface in my Access tool (just part of the Office distribution handed out to all desktops here) apart from a reference to Office XP Developer.
Can anyone provide me with any more information (even if that is just to point me elsewhere)?
Using VSS is not an option, by the way - the SCM standards specify ClearCase or Subversion (which would access the SCC interface via the PushOK proxy).
Hi there, I am doing a project for my A level computing, and for my mum's financial advising.
I am to assume no knowledge of computing on her part, and so i cannot make it up to the end user to know how to mailmerge. I was wondering if you could help. I can have it in a query, form or table form, whichever is best for this, but i need to be able to make a button which exports a record into a MS word mailmerge. This is just to make a simple letterhead. I need a button that says " Write to client ", and once it is clicked it needs to open a letter addressed to them. This is my problem. I have noticed when the data is in a report, there is an export to MS Word button, which is very close to what i want as i could use that and get a good enough mailmerge, but is there a way to run this from a macro or using VB? I did VB last year for my computing project and so i understand a fair amount of it. I want to just make one word document, which will open as mailmerged with the clients data. Please help if you can, I am sure it is possible as i can see you can mailmerge from access, and there is even a button to do it.... kind of, i just need to be able to make my own. Thankyou so much for your help. Steve ( Microsoft Access 2003 )
I work for a College within my area and have recently been asked to create a database for storing and testing data. With mild experience, I believe I have done well so far but a co-worker asked me the other day if there was a way to create or modify the hotkeys in Access. I've tried researching this on the Net and only found lists of which hotkeys do what. If anyone knows whether or not adjusting hotkeys is doable, please let me know.
I am trying to sort out some data. Because it is too huge for microsoft excel, I have to use Access to open it. But when I managed to open the data and wish to edit the data, it keep popping out this message "Updating data in a linked table is not supported by this ISAM"
I have 2 combo boxes. When the form loads the user selects a value from the combo box if the value is not 10 or 99 i want the user to be able to select a value from the list in the combo box else i want it to put in 0, 173 respectively when i put the formula in the control source i can get the values 0 and 173 to work but if the user selects a different value then i am unable to select any thing from the list?? can someone please help me thanks
hi everyone i just want to ask how to create a database microsoft access and connect it to my webpage...like for example a certain content in my web is downloads (music, videos etc.). then i want to add another music in my web..how can i do that in microsoft access hope u can help me guys...thanks!
I will firstly give you the low down on the business that I am doing the database for. It is a Car Restoration Business, where we deal with vintage/classic/muscle cars and restore them to the former glory.
I do not know Microsoft Access very well, I have attached a file with what I think is a databae I could be wrong. The main function of this database is to search for suppliers for a specific car part for a specific car.
So if I want to find a doorhandle for a 1970 Ford Mustang, I need the suppliers pertaining to those criterias to come up.
I have a database that will be used by a few users who are not very comfortable with Microsoft Access. I have a login screen and a introduction/splash popup. I was wondering if it is possible to bypass the Microsoft Access pop-ups that ask the user if they want to "block unsafe code.." or The security popup that says "This file may not be safe" so that the users go right to the login screen I created within the database. I am worried that there will be variations in answering/clicking these Microsoft Access questions thus causing a variety of complaints when trying to access the database. Thank you
