Hi, I have created a database with Office developer 1.5 and I am having problems creating my runtime version. I have been told that the VBA included in this program wont do the job, that I must purchase a full version Visual Basic 6.0. Is this true?
Thanks all
I'm trying to locate the Developer Extensions so that I can compile my Access 2003 application to distribute to my end user.
I'm getting totally lost in the myriad of documents and links on the MS website that keep sending my round in ever decreasing circles. I've downloaded Visual Studio Express - Visual Basic Edition but can't seem to find it in there.
Can anyone point me in the direction of the software that I need to be able to distribute my Access 2003 applications.
Hello All,

Hi Guys,
I hope I am in the right forum area. I have just upgraded to XP Home and have a choice of Office systems to install. However I have Office 97 Developer Edition that I use for Access Databases and this must be installed. I can also install either Office 2000 or Office XP Professional. What are the problems with having any of these combinations and Access 97 with the developer.
I have heard that there may be licencing issues or I may have to install in a particular order. Any advice would be appreciated.
Many thanks
Chris
I had a Label in the form that when i started design the Form, I supposed that will be permanent.
After few records, users needed to change the Text on that Label depending the customer they reffer to.
Therefore i attached a Microsoft Word Document OLE Unbound Object to give permission to users to change
the text when they need it.
But if u change the text in one record then will change to all of the other records.
Can u give any idea how i will manage to have a default label for all the records and users when they need
to change the Text only for a particular record.
Is this possible? Or I need to declare it as a Field on a Table therefore can be saved in every record?
Please any idea...
Thank you
Hi guys,
I have basic knowledge of microsoft Access and do very little with script and coding. I also design websites and can code in HTML and have good skills in Dreamweaver etc.
If I want to create a database driven website is Visual Web Developer 2005 a good software choice??
The way I see it the software will allow me to use my design skills and database knowledge to create the data driven website without needing alot of knowledge about MYSQL and PHP etc.
Thanks

Hello,
When I view my orders page, there is nothing displayed.
I have to query this by Orders.aspx?CustomerID=Sam to display Sam`s orders.
Is there a way that Sam can view all his orders as Sam is the username and the CustomerId?
I specified this query string, but to no avail:
SELECT DISTINCT [OrderID], [CustomerID], [OrderDate], [TotalPrice] FROM [Orders] WHERE ([CustomerID] = ?)
Thanks,
Jane
Several post in the recent past asked the question of how to package the db for distribution and how to run the Access db in computer not installed with Access. Before Access 2007, you must purchase another program for about one thousand dollar to do this. Microsoft now offer these two programs "Developer Extensions" and "Runtime" for free. The Developer Extension is a program that will package your db into an installation disk. You can package the Runtime program in the install disk for users that use computers without Access 2007. Here are the links to the MS website for the download.
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...&displaylang=en
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...&displaylang=en
I have a main form that has a combo box (cboCurrentEmployeeName) to select an Employee Name. And then there is a subform within the same form that displays the list of active tasks.The record source for the subform is a query. The query is as follows. Please note that the tables are joined on employee-id and not the employee name.
SELECT TasksEntries.Project, TasksEntries.Task, TasksEntries.StartDate, TasksEntries.Status FROM TasksEntries INNER JOIN (SELECT EmployeeId FROM Employees WHERE Employees.EmployeeName=Forms!frmMainForm!cboCurren tEmployeeName) AS EmpList ON TasksEntries.EmployeeId=Emplist.EmployeeId WHERE TasksEntries.Status<>'COMPLETE';
The names of the fields in the subform are Project, Task, StartDate, Status and these are present in the subform only and not on the main form..I added an after update event on the cboCurrentEmployeeName which is as follows
Private Sub cboCurrentEmployeeName_AfterUpdate()
Me("StartDate").Form.Requery
End Sub
When I select an employee name from the combo box I get a runtime error 2465: Microsoft office can't find the field StartDate referred to in your expression. I get the same error doesn't matter what field I use.
Question:
I notice that I have ACCESSRT.msi and ACCESSRT.CAB on my MS Office Professional CD. Why would I need VSTO? For the packaging wizard? Why can't I just install these files on the computers of my users and then an .mde file?
Why would they have included these files if this wasn't their intention?
It just seems silly that I would have to pay $799 for files that are included on my disk. (Microsoft? Silly? Surely you jest.) I would need VSTO for absolutely NOTHING else but this.
Can someone "enlighten" me on the thinking here?
I would also clarify this is for interoffice work only (if it makes a difference) and not something I'm distributing for a "paid" end user.
Hello,
I have installed Microsoft Access 2003 and Microsoft Access 2003 Developer Extensions. I can create Access application by using the Package Wizard.
But after I upgrade from Microsoft Access 2003 to Microsoft Access 2007.
I can't use the Package Wizard.
How can I do to solve this?
Thanks.
Hi,
I saw many posts in here. Most of the posts are said that we need to use Access Developer Edition to distribute the Access Runtime for our clients.
Can we just buy/use the Access RunTime Modules and unlimited licenses without using Access Developer Edition?
My office is upgrading from office 2000 to 2003 this weekend. Should I run the
"Tools - Database Utilities - Convert Database - To Access 2002 2003 Format"
I have about 10 small databases various users access. Is it good practice to run this or just keep it in an office 200 format? Thanks.
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

Here is the part of Connect.asp that errors:

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.
Sincerly,

Hello everyone,
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.

Access looks great!
Hello Folks, i was wondering whether any one knows any dll or file that stores office xp icons. I wanna extract them.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI needs some advice on how to proceed.
Our company is devolving some operations to a sub office for 3 out of 11 business units. we have a central DB that we use to record monthly events the problem is that the parent group has to be able to update records for all units but the sub office is only allowed to see and edit their records
At the moment the data is all stored in one table and we use a Front end back end with local front ends for access I have a table to say if a unit is part of the sub office or not and in the sub office front end i have a Query which links the 2 tables together and filters the records to show only sub office
SELECT tbldatatable.*, tblShipName.Manager
FROM tblShipName RIGHT JOIN tbldatatable ON tblShipName.ShipName = tbldatatable.Ship
WHERE (((tblShipName.Manager)="nv"));
the remainder of the forms and querys all run from this query rather than the tables
the problem is the join makes it a non updatable record set
what is the advice on how to achieve what i need as i cant see a simple way to proceed
thanks

Not sure if this has been posted yet. Microsoft has released beta of Office 2007, this includes a new UI to many of the old office programs. For the time being you can get it here:
http://www.microsoft.com/office/preview/beta/getthebeta.mspx
Beta 2 of Internet Explorer 7 has also been released:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/default.mspx
And I know I've posted on this before, but just so it is in the same place, Visual Studio 2005 can be downloaded here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/products/trial/
There are also many business-oriented programs in beta for testing. If you own a small business, or think your company may have a need ~ test it out, get a feel, for free.
I just found out something that was pretty cool about Office 2007, specifically Access 2007 and Outlook 2007. Working with them together, you can create an email form to gather data for Access and when the email is returned, all filled out, Outlook will export the data into your specified Access table.
I just played with it a little and it appears to have some issues when dealing with multiple tables, but for a simple data gathering it would seem pretty cool. In fact you can set it up so that it won't automatically process until you want to, or you can have it process right when the email comes in.
If I design an .ADP project in 2007, will users be able to use this if they only have Office 2003?
...or is there a way of making an exe file with Access projects?
Ever since my company upgraded everyone to Office 2003 I have the following issues:
When I click the checkbox that automatically send an email I get the following Pop-up.
"A program is trying to access e-mail addresses you have stored in Outlook. Do you want to allow this?
If this is unexpected, it may be a virus and you should choose "No".
Then you click either yes or no.
After you click yes you then get the next Pop-up which basically says the same thing and you have to click yes again and it finally take you into outlook so the email will go.
Is there anything to get rid of this nuisance? We did not have to do this with Office 2000. I have lowered the security to as low as it will go and still this keeps happening.
Thanks in advance.
hi there...
where can i find free access developer tools? please help..
thanks
