Modules & VBA :: Connect To Mdb From Accdb
Oct 20, 2013
I am trying to connect to an access database format 2003 from my access 2007 database. I would like to create a recordset from a table in the 2003 database and bind it to a listbox in my 2007 database.I tried to the following code that didn't work.
Code:
Dim DNHConn As ADODB.Connection
Dim Rs As ADODB.Recordset
Dim connStr, xSource, xSys, xUsr, xPsw
On Error GoTo errH
[code]....
When I try to execute that code, I get an error that the apllication can't start because the worgroup file is either missing or opened exclusive by another user.

Access 2007, split database, 9 users. I have been able to link the BE tables with the Linked Table Manager. I use the DNS name path because everyone has different drive mappings. I can open my linked tables as a RecordSet and AddNew and Update records. However, I cannot Seek and Edit the linked tables. I understand that I need to open the BE tables directly in order to do this. Now, I can do a connection like this, and it works for me:
Dim dbs As DAO.Database
Set dbs = DBEngine.OpenDatabase("R:DataTask_be.accdb")
But, as I said, everyone has different drive mappings. Therefore, I need to use the Network address instead of a drive letter. I tried this:
Set dbs = DBEngine.OpenDatabase("ServerMyBackEndDataTas k_be.accdb").

I have been trying to come up with a solution for a problem I am having for a while to no avail. We have a backend database that stores various tables full of data. We then have a custom Excel Ribbon that connects to the database and pulls in the different tables depending on the user selection form the ribbon. Everything is working well on that end. The problem I am running into though is that in the development phase of the ribbon and database we had multiple versions and so there are still some people who are using old versions of the ribbon and therefore not connecting properly to the database. Is there some type of code I can add into the database and ribbon where it checks for a specific version to ensure the user is using the most recent version?
Basically, before any type of query is run to connect to the database the ribbon would have some sort of label on it somewhere and the database would check for that label and if it is correct, the code proceeds and if not a message box appears that tells the user they are not using the most current version of the ribbon and exits the sub?

I'm trying to tie a from into the results from and AD Query. I'm not that experienced with doing this kind of thing so I may be going about this the wrong way. Anyway here's what I've got so far:
Code:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Dim cn As ADODB.Connection
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
With cn
.ConnectionString = "Provider=ADSDSOObject;Trusted_Connection=yes;"
[Code] .....
When stepping through the code, it all goes well until it hits the line that actually connects it to the form "Set Me.Recordset = rs".
When this line is executed, Access crashes and attempts to restart.
PS: Access 2010, Win7 64bit

I am trying to connect to excel from Access database. Once I make the connection I want to delete data from a range on a specific sheet. There are 4 columns on the spreadsheet but i wouldn't know how many rows. So for example, A150... but I may not know what the last row is. How would I be able to delete data from a range of columns to the last row?

I have a mdb access 2000 database that I want to convert to accdb. I can't for the life of me get it to work as when I try the save as access 2007 it always tells me I have the database open exclusively which is normal as I am the only user at the time when I want to convert it... not quite sure how I can open my database not exclusive? I have tried read only but doesn't work either...
thanx for any advice you might have...

I have a (Access Data Project) ADP project which was created in Access 2003.I need to convert it into an ACCDB file with Access 2007. How to do this besides exporting each and every table, query,report etc one by one ? I was hoping there was something where I could import or export the whole thing in one go.

Is there an easy way to convert an old ACCESS db from version 2003 to version 2010?
My ACCESS db is .mdb and I want to convert it to .accdb as version 2010. It has hundreds of modules that may take awhile to export. Exporting is the only way I know to transfer from one db to another.

Have an Access db created with Access 2003. Was not updated with Access 2007, and now need to work with it in Access 2010.
Saved the Access 2003 db, a *.mdb file as a *.accdb and imported the data from the *.mdb db.
The import failed and the error report and in the report the Issue Type Error and the Issue Type ID is ACCWeb107014. When I checked this error, the follow explanation was given. However, the tables have a PK.
ACCWeb107014Error text A Table should have a Primary Key and it should be a number with field size 'long' to be compatible with the Web.What it means The indicated table has one of the following problems:
The table does not have a primary key.The data type of the primary key is not Number.The primary key Field Size is not Long.

I am in the process of updating a database to 2010 (.accdb) and cannot get past a problem. We are using Access 2010.
I updated the back end data to .accdb with no problem. I can't link the front end to that data without updating the front end to .accdb as well. There are no tables in the front end.
I try to update the front end to /accdb and I get the error message 'You are trying to convert an encoded database. Decode the database, then try again.'
How do I decode the database? I tried setting a password and then unsetting it, but that made no difference. I have not previously encoded the database.
can't finish the update to .accdb data. The alternative is to stay with 2003 MDB data. Is that a bad thing?

I have MS Access on my PC however wish to move the accdb file to a network location to allow other network users to have access to it.
Unfortunately a few of the other users do not have MS Access. Is it possible for them to still open the database without any admin or background - I would like them to be able to use the forms and 'front end'.

We have a split A2010 accdb, and the backend is now 1.8Gb so I need to do something If I put each of the 4 main tables in 4 separate backend accdbs, will the fact that the frontend then needs to link to 4 accdbs in some way impact on performance? Another possibility (given that 90% of our work only needs the recent data) is that I split the 4 main tables into 'archive' and 'current' (= recent) tables, with all the 'archive' tables in one accdb and all the 'current' tables in another accdb: but that would make it more difficult to run reports etc over the entire data Putting the 4 main tables in 4 separate backend accdbs seems like the answer to me - but are there any other considerations to this.

I have a database with extension .accdb. When I open it, everything is locked. I can't access VB Editor, Navigation Pane, Ribbon, nothing. It just opens a form and the only thing that can be edited are the text boxes on the form. I can't use Shift when opening it, that does nothing. It does not prompt for a password when opening.

I just finished a week long database project. All ready to show the users - who have 2007. I have 2010. I can't get it to open on their PCs even though it's saved as 2007 set. So I try to import it into 2007 - nope no going. Can I install 2010 runtime on their PC and have that database automatically open with it ....

Hello my helpfull friends,
I am going to build a multi-user database with the tables en queries stored on a server. So I will deploy multiple front ends.
Here is my question:
What is the best way to connect to the BE?
Should I link the backend using the linkingmanager (bound to a recordset) of access 2007
OR
should I interact with the data in the backend using undbound form using a disconnected recordset
OR using SQL
I would prefer the first option because it's the easiest way.
But what do you guys (and girls) recommend?

Hi all,
I'm designing a db in which I have a list of teacher names, and for each record (each teacher), there is a list of subject that this teacher teaches.
what i did is the following:
I have designed a form with teacher name, and a form for subjects.
I have added a button in the teacher form, next to each teacher name, this button we take the user to the subjects form to add the subjects for this particular teacher.
To link these to form, I have added the primary key of the teacher table (TeacherID) in the subjects table, so the relationship is one-to-many.
but I couldn't get to connect them.
I want the subject form to get the TeacherID from the teacher form to connect each teacher with his subjects. How can I do that?
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Best Regards,
CS.
