:Hi,
At the moment I'm writing a production database for work, which include parts in/out, production planning, kitting lists and other forms. What I'm after is a way that when the database opens it asks for a password and depending what it is, is what you can do. Administrator can do all, Stores can only enter parts and scheduler can only enter planning and so on.
How easy is this? :o

Hi guys,
I've seen different log in forms and tips on multi-user use but can't seem to find info on the following...
We have 6 people at work and I'd like to assign which user updated a form or created a new record...this would be particularly useful on the sales part of the database to track who made a call to a particular customer...
Best ideas anyone?

I have a multi user database in Access 2000 that is on a server. The individual users have shortcuts pointing towards the server instance. One user and one user only when opening the shortcut gets the error "you do not have exclusive rights to the database" .
All other users can enter the database with no error box. I have checked the advanced setting under options and they are correct. Ironically if you go to start and open access then navigate to the database shortcut. It opens with no error.
I have successfully created a user id & password prompt which works excellently.
The database i have created has three forms inwhich two departments access. I have an issue where one department is only allowed to view a search screen and the other department is allowed to enter in information and search. I also have a section for managers to login and run reports.
In my userid & password table i have created and field called Level which includes: Administrator, Manager, Bookings,User
Admin - Full Access
Managers - Full Access - But not able to edit queries and tables
Bookings - Order Form, Search Form
User - Search Form
Here is the code i have used:
Login OK Button:-
Private Sub login_Click()
If txtPassword.Value = DLookup("Password", "tblAccess", "[UserId] = txtUser.Value") Then
CheckFlag
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmUserLogon"
Else
MsgBox "INCORRECT PASSWORD! Please try again"
End If
End Sub
Module1:
Option Compare Database
Public Flag As Integer '1: Reports Opener 2:Log 3:OpenUKSupplier
Function CheckFlag()
Select Case Flag
Case 1
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmReports Menu"
Case 2
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmbooking"
Case 3
DoCmd.OpenForm "Frmsearch"
Case Else
'Should never be here
End Select
End Function
Where would i add the code to the module or to the event?

I have read a lot about if multiple users want to share an MDB, they have to create BE and FE and split the database.
I understand having to do that if all those users want to write to the MDB simultaneously.
I have a situation where one person will do data entry (write access), and two other users will just want to view and perhaps just search the database (read).
If only one person is writing at any time, do I have to do all that splitting and FE/BE configuration?
I've create a form with subform that work like a charm, now they want in a multi user environment. What is the best way to achive this?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have created a login form, with a user name and password. It works great. However I need to use the login form for three different command buttons, on my main access form. The same login form will be used but It will need to open three different forms depending on what command button was selected on the main page.
Main page- PID
3 command buttons- building, documents, assessments
login form- login
3 documents- build, docs,assess
I open main page, PID- click on buildings the login form pops up and I enter the correct username and password the building doc opens. Got it?? The same process for each, I would like to know how is this possible? How do I change the differnt documet that opends according to the command button that has been pushed? :confused: Thanks in advance
So I have a login system established with loginID, passwords, and different user types. I also have a User Change Password form. However, this form only allows the user to change their password to something new. Also, for some reason the form only allows the first user in the table (ID#1) to be changed regardless of who is logged in. I was using an embedded Macro. I need to be able to have the old password entered and verified before the password can be changed to something new.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI plan to create a multi-user application on access 2000. There would be more than 20 users simultaneously logging in the database. The database would be kept in Server with high config. The users would work on the database (server) from their workstations. Forms/Queries/Reports ... are in the workstation (client). The database may growup to 70 MB every 3 months. The application will run on the database for 3 months which will be replaced with a new one after that period. Is it a good plan to do so on Access 2000. Am worried about the network traffic. Will the users face it as a very slow application ???
(SysConfig workstation: Win2K Pro/ 128 MB RAM/ 40GB HDD/Pentium-4)
Any suggestion is appreciated. Thanx in advance.

Hi
If I want several users to access a database from their network pc's, should I place the access database .mdb file on the server and set the Sharing properties, then install the access application on each of their stations.
They need to each be able to use the database when they need to and read or add data, reports etc.
I am using access 2003.
Thanks

I maintain a database that is used by several people in my office. Only about 4 different people actually use the database but I would like the database to have multi-user support. As of right now the tables, forms, modules, etc. are all in a single mdb file. Can someone recommend a method for making this database accessible to several users at once? My main concerns are accuracy (changes commiting in the proper order) and low chance of corruption.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHey everyone,
I am in desperate need of your help. I have a split database that I am trying to enable multi users access to the database. I created a folder on the share drive with the front end and a folder on share (BEN) with the backend. I have changed the settings via options, advanced options, and checked that shared box however it will still not allow everyone into the database at the same time. Is there something that I am missing? Should I then right click and copy and paste the front end to local PC since the tables are split and still on the share drive???? I plan on using security in the future will this cause a problem???Thanks
Hi,
I need to allow my MDB to have 15 users accessing at the same time. They will be updating different parts of the same table using different forms. The system will also do an automatic update from another system in 15 mins interval.
Is it possible? If so, how do I configure my access database?
Please help.
Thanks!!!
I would like your opinion on this; I have a ms access database that will be used in a multi-user environment, across different Teams. Data will be loaded from text files several times a day in a MS Access table, users will retrieve the data from the tables and displayed in a form. Their job will be to add comments and select drop down boxes for actions they have taken. Since the data is downloaded in the tables and retrieved from the user instead of the user keying in the data from scratch I would like to know how to best design this. I’m thinking of having a query run to display the data in the user form but is there a way that I can have the data refreshed every so often so that users can be presented with the new records that are being downloaded. What best practice should I use to avoid conflicts like example splitting the database or using record locking options
Any help is appreciated! Thanks
1) I develop my application(Ms-Access 2k) and put into company network directory.
2) The problem here is only 1 user allow to access per time.
3) Is there any setting I miss out?
Hello Everyone! I have a project that is driving me crazy!! :mad:
I have a form on a database that retrieves data from a query; this database is in a multi-user environment. What I am trying to accomplish is to allow the form to bring up the next available record that has not/or is NOT being worked on yet. The form I built does a re-query every time the user goes to the next record and looks for anything that has not been worked on yet. It does this by looking at the timestamp the user has placed once completed the record on the form. I also placed my record locking option to Edited Record. However when the users sign on simultaneously they still get the same item on their screen. Is there a way to create some sort of locking mechanism that would allow the form to display to the user the next available record that has not been or is not being worked on by a user at this time? Theoretically I am looking at something like this: Once a user opens the form and the record is displayed on the screen, lock the record and avoid any user from viewing or editing this record. All other users should be directed to the next available record, every time the user hits the next button move to the next available unlocked record and immediately lock it from viewing or editing from everyone else.
I appreciate any help you can provide me on this!!
Hi everyone,
can anybody help me on this. I have two PCs connected and i am trying to execute an Access file from the client PC. This appears to be possible but the problem is that i cant save any new record and Active X or OLE seems to be the problem according to the message box appeared when i execute a form. The file works normally when executed from the server.
Any ideas?
It appears that the problem comes when Vba Code is executed for example i can save records from the tables but not from the forms where VBA code is attached
Hi all, question about using a table for temporary storage. When a user clicks a button after selecting critiera, a form is displayed with fields bound to a TempTable. On this form is a subform which pulls 3 peices of data from a table called QuestionsTable. As a user clicks through the subform, two fields are populated by the user and get stored in the QuestionsTable.
Once done, the user clicks a button and a SQL statement grabs the data from the main form (TempTable) and subform (QuestionsTable) and shoves it into the Archive table. A SQL statement then runs to delete the contents of the TempTable, and Delete the *modified* data in the QuestionsTable (by simply setting the 3 fields which will change to " " or Null).
Now my problem. If two users are in the same form and one clicks save, the SQL statements eraase everything... so the 2nd user will be mid process and their data will poof.
I want to assign a Session ID each time the main form is loaded. This is set via AutoNum in the TempTable. My question is, how can I copy 3 fields (Question, Comment, Result) from the QuestionsTable and insert them into the TempTable, then have the subform load the 3 fields from the temptable (so in essence, everything is loaded from TempTable).
Did that make sense? Sorry if it didn't, I'm reaching my deadline on this and have a bad cold
I have a form "log_file" that I am going to be placing a nework. All I have done is create a new DB, create a table, and create a form. Now I want to make it so users open up the DB file and only see the form and cannot access/edit the table. Basically, It is okay if they go back and forth through the records and change those, but I don't want them to be able to edit the form either.
I'm just not sure where to go from here. If there is more info I should provide please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

I use a database that someone else set up and is no longer here. To get access to the database you need to enter a user id and password. I have a new user who has been getting into the database using an established user's id and password.
I went into the file and found the table with the users, their id's and passwords listed, and added the new person to the table, but I still get an invalid user message when trying to access the database with the new user's information.
I went through the Access Help and tried a couple things it said for adding users to a password protected database, but either I didn't do it right, or the way to add a user is different from what I am getting from Access Help.
Lastly, this database is different in that if I would add a report, it only shows up on my computer when I access the database, the report doesn't show up on anyone else's. That is odd to me, but it is how it works.
Thank you for any help you can give.
code for the "Forgot Password?" button on a login screen? I want an email notification sent to me if someone has forgotten their password, and/or automatically reset their password to a default value based on their user name.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have this code to change user password
Private Sub Command3_Click()
If IsNull(Me.cboEmployee) Or Me.cboEmployee = "" Then
MsgBox "You must enter a User Name.", vbOKOnly, "Required Data"
Me.cboEmployee.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
[Code] ....
But it doesnt change the password....
Into the form named: Administratorsfrm, I added a textbox defined as usertxt and also a textbox named passwordtxt as well as a button named logincmd.
The user defined is the Network user and this is added automatically to the usertxt field everytime when I open the Administratorsfrm form. To do this I use the next code:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Dim wshNetwork As Object 'New wshNetwork
Set wshNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
Me.Usertxt = wshNetwork.UserName
Set wshNetwork = Nothing
End Sub
I would like that the user types his/her password (Network password or Unlocking computer) and after this could Login to the database application. I mean, the user will type his password and then the event should compare the password typed with the network password or unlocking password and if this is correct should open the database application (Main Menu Form: Mainfrm)
