Ok. This has nothing to do with Access, but I couldn't find a website that would give me fast feedback on this problem.
I am trying to open a file in Microsoft Word, but it says I need to install a Microsoft Office Words converter. Anyone know where I can download this ONLINE?? I have version 2003.
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.

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.
I had a fully working database that I decided to clean up by standardising naming formats etc. I have changed the tables names and changed all VBA links etc to the new table names.
This all appears to work fine. The database is still doing exactly what it should be doing. The only problem is whenever a record is updated I get the following error,
"The Microsoft Jet Database Engine cannot find the input table or query, "***". Make sure it exists and that its names is spelled correctly".
Where the missing table is the previously renamed table. All the updates etc work correct to the renamed table but I get this error whenever it is updated. I tried renaming the tables to their original names but then I got the same error for the new names.
Anyone got any ideas or will I have to rebuild the database.
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 have a user running office 2007, with a program called Dev_Tracker wthat uses a front end of access 2000. This program allows a user to log in their project hours. The skinny is that when they lauch the program and try to make an entry they receive this error message:
Run-time error 3075
syntax error in date in query expression tbl_timesheet.weekof=#2.4.2008# AND tbl_timesheet.user=dworden.
If the user logs into another machine it works fine so it appeare to local to the machine. I have cleaned the registry and done other tweaks but no luck.:confused: Any ideas would be helpful.
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 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
This is my first post here so please forgive if it seems rather elementary.
Here's the deal, I am a web developer finishing up my senior year of college. I have a client that is using a Microsoft Access database on a web site and the site is built with ASP. I have never really used these two items together before and need to write some scripts to do simple database functions.
I have a lot of experience with PHP and MySQL databases and SQL query statements but I haven't figured out the syntax to go with Access and ASP.
Is there a good beginner's site that covers this? I have scoured the web and found nothing useful.
Also, the following line of code gives me the following error:
objConn.execute("UPDATE Sheet1 SET Salutation='Jose' WHERE Salutation='Mike'")
gives the error
" Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80004005'
Operation must use an updateable query.
/tester/tester.asp, line 22"
That is line 22. I am connected okay because I can do select statements. The table name and field name is correct as well but I don't know why I get this error.
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
