Backup On Exit
Oct 13, 2005Hiya,
I have a database which on exit runs calls the following module and backs up the database to anther folder
Public Function BackupCopy()
'This function will allow you to copy a db that is open,
'You must set a reference to the 'Microsoft Scripting Runtime' for the CopyFile piece to work!
Dim fso As FileSystemObject
Dim sSourcePath As String
Dim sSourceFile As String
Dim sBackupPath As String
Dim sBackupFile As String
sSourcePath = "C:Database"
sSourceFile = "MyDB.mdb"
sBackupPath = "C:DatabaseBackups"
sBackupFile = "BackupDB_" & Format(Date, "mmddyyyy") & "_" & Format(Time, "hhmmss") & ".mdb"
Set fso = New FileSystemObject
fso.CopyFile sSourcePath & sSourceFile, sBackupPath & sBackupFile, True
Set fso = Nothing
Beep
MsgBox "Backup was successful and saved @ " & Chr(13) & Chr(13) & sBackupPath & Chr(13) & Chr(13) & "The backup file name is " & Chr(13) & Chr(13) & sBackupFile, vbInformation, "Backup Completed"
End Function
but after backing up correctly it brings me the following error
"Run-time errror '424':
Object required
any ideas what might be going wrong

Forms :: Option To Create A New User Or Exit Database
May 20, 2015I have a fully functioning login screen with a combo box for name and a password box. It also has an option to create a new user or exit the database. On my main form I want the employees to have to log out of the database as opposed to close it out. How would I go about this? Also I need tracking login and logout times for each employee.

Nov 5, 2014come up with the below code to create PDF documents based on a query. It has been working great but I have a change that I need to make and can't figure it out. The code below creates all the documents in one folder "serverD$DocumentsInvoices" but I need it to create a separate folder for each PDF so that the file (Invoice1234.pdf) will be in the folder (serverD$DocumentsInvoicesInvoice1234Invoic e1234.pdf). That folder does not exist, so I need to create it and then save the PDF into it.

Backup BE Database
Jul 6, 2005I recently created a database with an FE and BE, and I want to be able to back up the BE from the FE. In the FE, I added a menu item "Back up database...", and it works good for the FE, but I want it to back up the BE, where the data is located. The reason that I like the menu item is that it opens a "Save Backup As" dialog box, and it also adds the date to the name of the database. Also it will be easier for the people that are using the db.

Jul 10, 2006what would possibly cause a "Backup Database As" dialogue box to appear? it's the same as the "save as" box and allows you to save a copy of the access file you're working on but it says "Backup Database As" at the top.
it seems to come up periodically and im not sure what might be causing it.
thanks
Backup Database Is 'read Only'
Feb 13, 2006Hi All,
I created a database in Access and of course password protected the backend version. As a matter of course I backed up the mdb to cd in case of emergency.
Our network has been taken down due to some virus being bought in by a laptop user so I wanted to reinstall the mdb from the cd to my c: drive.
The problem is that the file is saying that it is 'Read Only' which I think is down to the password protection i put on there.
Question:
Is there a way I can get round the security?
I promise I am not a hacker!
Cheers

Backup Database Online ?
Jun 12, 2006I read a lot of threads and some KB articles before this, but am still confused.
Can a copy of the BE database be made on the Server while users are logged on ? Max No. of users is 7.
Does copying a BE while work is going on lead to corruption in the database.
Right now i make a copy of the database thru code and then compress the copy for a backup.
Autiomated BackUp Of Back End Database
Aug 17, 2005We are currently running a FE / BE splitted database abd would like to back the back end up (to a sepearate location) every 15 minuutes by using the On Timer event.
Troiuble is, I believe I cant use the CopyDataBaseFile method whilst other users are in it and it would be too much hassle kicking everyone off!
Manually copying and pasting is good, but would really like to crack this one
Any suggestions please?

Search Employees Backup Database?
Dec 16, 2011Attached i have a Database with 3 Tables.
-Table MA's. is the just a table were you can select if an Analyst is at the office or not. so if the check box is selected the analyst is available.
-Table Backups. We have Alias which is a reference code to a supplier the 1 Analyst and then Backup 1 and backup 2
-Table suppliers are just de supplier details.
what i whould need is when in the MA's table an Analyst is not selected a macro or query should search for backup 1 and replace it. when the backup 1 is not available as wel than backup 2 should be put in place.
When no backups are availeble then a message can put in the cell like"No Backup Available'.
This result can be put in a new table named. Decksplit with then the Supplier Alias, Supplier Name, Analyst
Making Daily Backup Of Database?
Oct 29, 2013As my database is growing and hold more and more data i want to make a daily backup to the local hard disk (it works on a network now) automatically.The way i want it to work is as follows :
When a user quits the application i want to check if there is a copy already existing with the date of today.
If it does it skips the copy process and just quits.
If it doesn't, i want it to make a backup in a directory. if the directory doesn't exist it must be made.
The backup file name must hold the date of today off course.
I realize that i have to have a procedure to delete obsolete (outdated) backups as well, but ill worry about that later.
Off course Ive tried this a few times, otherwise i wouldnt ask it here. But i seem to fail every time..

Jan 24, 2014I am trying to use VBA to backup the BACK-END of a split database (so I can automatically archive selected data). If I use FileCopy I get a message that the BACK-END database has not been found.Obviously I could 'unlink' the BACK-END, copy it and 're-link' it..Is it possible to copy the BACK-END tables(not just the links) into the FRONT-END and get at them that way?

Modules & VBA :: How To Create New Lock File Within Current Database
Apr 7, 2015What I'd like to do is have an "export button", where the OnClick event, exports a single table into a new accde file. This would allow the end users to zip this file up and send it to me.
Because of all sorts of stupidity, I have no network capability and must send data back and forth via email.
I have digressed to a replication table that needs to be uploaded, once data is entered by the users...
Because the files can get relatively large (for emailing purposes), I am trying to figure out how I can get just one table from them vs. sending the whole application file back to me... It's pretty vital that they not be able to edit the table because that could really mess up the process.
So any way to create a new lock file from within the current Db?
Modules & VBA :: Exit A Subroutine From Within Control Loop
Jan 30, 2015 Sometimes I find the 'need' to exit a subroutine from within a control 'loop' e.g. if.. then..else with... while... et al.
I suspect this is 'bad form' but is there any 'cost' in doing this?
There presumably will be if objects have been set and are not reset to Nothing. In this case it presumably is not a problem resetting to Nothing outside a With.. - what about inside a with..??
Access 2007 Backup Menu Won't Back Up My Database
Jan 23, 2008I'm using Access 2007, with what I think is a normal database that I've built up over the past month (maybe 15 tables, <1000 records, 20 queries, 4 or 5 reports and macros). I'm not an experienced Access programmer, so I don't think I'm doing anything fancy with security settings or any other such stuff. (If I have, it's surely by accident, not by intent.)
When I try to back up the db using the simple office button -> manage -> backup method, access generates a date-stamped backup filename and opens a file save dialog for me, but it ALWAYS fails to backup the database. I always get the same error message when I click save, whether I save on my machine, or on a network drive.
"Could not use '<path to the current database dir><backname>.accdb; file already in use."
This same error occurs when I create a new blank database with a single Table1 in it, so I don't think it's my database.
Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening? I scoured the net for help, but nothing. I checked various Access forums, but nothing. So I arrive here after I've done my homework... thanks
