Hi, I would like to recreate a record locking problem (error # 3218) our users are experiencing on an application we have developed. I currently do not have access to a network, so I would like to run multiple instances of Access on one machine. How do I do that?
Thanks,
Bill
I have a very elaborate Access 2000 application that uses three different SQL databases as the back end. Mostly the data is modified or selected via ADO connections.
The problem I am having is that recently users on Terminal Server are not able to open the application because for some reason the application is not allowing more than one copy of it to be opened at once. I checked everywhere and couldn't find anything that would not allow multiple instances but couldn't find anything.
Any ideas on what could be causing this? Any help is greatly appreciated
Not sure if this is the correct forum but its worth a shot.
When I try to open any database, MS Access will hang if there is already another instance msaccess.exe running. I even tried opening two newly created blank dbs with the same result. Has anyone ever come accross this behavior?
I have tried repairinging/reinstalling/checking and unchecking "Windows in Taskbar option"
Thanks for any help!
I am fixing a database that was previously built. It is use to show listings of items for sale. There is a form that displays all of the information about a particular listing, each with its own id code.
If I want to email a particular item and info to an email address i can, but i can only send one at a time. I click a button which then asks what format to save the report, i choose html, then it opens a new email message from Outlook and sets the file as an attatchment.
The problem is, i want to be able to send more than one listing at a time in the same email. But once the first listing is created and attatched i have to send that one before i can send another listing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is there a way to allow Access to open a second (or thrid...) copy of a form? We need this so we can visually compare the contents for record one with the contents of record two.
Thanks,

I have a table called providers with the following 3 fields:
Provider ID
Cancellation Reason
Visit ID
Date
It is possible to have multiple instances of the same provider ID, cancellation reason and visit ID on the same date. I'm trying to count just 1 instance based on visit ID if there are multiple instances of the visit ID and reason on the same date. Select distinct doesn't seem to do the trick.
I have an Access 2007 mydb.accdb file. If I click on it, it starts up fine. If I click on it again, then focus goes to the already open db.
If I do the same but with the .accde of the same db, for each click a new instance opens. This is not good, in that a single user then can have multiple instances running without noticing it, and that might mess things up. What Windows setting to use, to convince Win XP that only one instance of mydb.accde should run, similar to the .accdb?
After creating multiple instances of a form how should they be closed so as to ensure that all of their assets are disposed of and there are no memory leaks? DoCmd.Close seems not to work because it expects a name string which would be the same for all instances of the form.
Since a form's name is a read only property it cannot be modified when the form is created so it doesn't uniquely identify a particular form instance. I've tried setting the form reference to Nothing which appears to work, but I'm not sure whether this is the correct technique and whether it disposes of everything cleanly.
We have a form that will have one combo box for Associates (like Employee in the OPs DB) which I've got set to show only active Associates for new entry per the tips in the above thread, but we'll also have a combo box for Developer which I need to function the same way. I don't know how to add that part to the On Current event?
Code:
Private Sub Form_Current()
Dim strComboRowSource As String
If Me.NewRecord Then
strComboRowSource = "SELECT T_Associates.AssociateID, T_Associates.Associate, T_Associates.Active " & _
"FROM T_Associates " & _
"WHERE (((T_Associates.Active)=True));"

I recently bought a new computer and it was kinda cheap, so no office products were installed on the computer. A friend loaned me her copy of Office 2003 which didn't have Access on it. So, after installing Office 2003 I picked my old Office 97 CD and installed just Access 97. Then I go to open the database and get this annoying message.
Microsoft Access can't start because there is no license for it on this machine.
Can anyone help? Thanks for your time.

I have developed .net application ....at back end I am using ms access database. When I deploy my application at client end , I want only my ms access database should accessible to application only. Client should not be even to see which type of database i am using or its business logic .
View 7 Replies View RelatedI've come across an interesting problem a colleague has been trying to solve and even though I can 'see' what needs to be done and could probably program it on our mainframe, I'm really stuck on how to achieve the same results in MS Access
I'll do my best to explain the problem by showing an example of how the data exists in the DB and also how it 'should' be output on a report.
DATE OPERATOR COUNT
29/06/06 - Oper A - 32
29/06/06 - Oper B - 12
29/06/06 - Oper A - 10
29/06/06 - Oper C - 13
29/06/06 - Oper B - 10
The output needed however should read as follows
29/06/06 - Oper A - 42
29/06/06 - Oper B - 22
29/06/06 - Oper C - 13
Setting up a date selection shouldn't be a problem, its just adding the totals on each instance of each operator into one figure without ending up with a total of the number of times an operator appears on a date.
Any help and guidance about how best to approach this problem (macro/query/script) would be appreciated.
Trying to use Access97 on Windows XP and I get an error message.
"Microsoft Access can't start because there is no license for it on this machine"
I've tried everything and it still doesn't want to work.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled
I've tried to find the font, hatten, and it's not there
I've downloaded MDAC 2.8
I've check the permissions in HKEY CLASSES ROOT
I've tried c:setup/y
I've downloaded AcLicn97.exe and it tells me that it can't find Access
If anyone can help, please let me know
I have a text field in a table .. I would like the default value for that field to be the machine name. How do I do this? I know how to set a default value for a date or piece of text. I imagine it would be something like: machinename(), that's about as far as I get.

Hi,
I´ve installed office97 professional on a computer with office 2003 standard on it.
When I try to start access it tells me there is no license for it on the machine.
Has anyone else had this problem? Of course I have a license, and there has never been any problems with it in the past.
The 2003 version has not yet been registered, if that might have something to do with it.
Fuga.
I'm needing a pop up adding machine that will copy and paste a calculated value into a text box on a form when the calculator is exited....much like banking teller's have on their transaction pages.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAm fairly certain that I will be asked to design and implement a Machine Status Application.
Description below is very simplistic but believe you will get the idea
Basically simple stuff at Machine Operator. He clicks a command button on a display that signifies machine is okay or not. This updates machine status. Image it just toggles between Running and Stopped.
Each minute little process runs to at 1 to Run value or to Stop value. Okay so this will get a little more complex for sure.
Now I could end up collecting data on say 100 machines. Okay so I would not expect the status change to occur any more than once per hour on average so it would be a bit like having 100 very very slow users on the system.
Now the crunch. What effect (if any) would these 100 very very slow users have on performance and particularly the One much quicker user who is executing preset queries one after another for say 20 seconds every minute.
Thoughts and opinions welcome

I have a number of checklists for my machinery
i have attached a couple of check sheets I have attached my table structure and an example of my check list in XLS format
i need to track which of these checks are being carried out each week..
I have created 3 tables so far, 1 called tLine and 1 called tMachine and 1 called tActivity
tLine
LineID (PK) - Autonumber
LineDescription - Text
Not sure if my use of PK is right, should it be the MachineDescription that i make the Key?
tMachine
MachineID (PK) - Autonumber
MachineDescription - Text
Not sure if my use of PK is right, should it be the MachineDescription that i make the Key?
tActivity
ActivityID - (PK) - Autonumber
Activity - Text
StdTime - Number
Not sure if my use of PK is right, should it be the MachineDescription that i make the Key?

I am having a few issues i could really do with some help with please
Line 1 has a Filler and Capper
Line 2 has a Filler
Line 3 Has a Filler and a Capper
if i focus on the filler:
I have 5 checks to do on this however the Stdtime on activity 5 is different on Line 1 and Line 3 but the activity is the same.
if i focus on the capper:
this has 2 differnet activities and 1 activity which has the same description as the filler activity.
Problem 1:
Table Setup - not sure i am using the PK correctly etc, have read a few reference guides etc, but am struggling with this..
Problem 2:
how do i link the activitys to the machines and the machines to the Lines
Problem3:
how do i account for the same activity but different std times.
Problem 4:
I need to track these checks but i will try to get the table structure right first
I really would appreciate your help here please
Hi,
I'm trying to establish the link from my local mdb to an mdb on a commercial server I'm using.
The problem is there's no way to locate the remote access database when using the Link Table wizard.
Anyone knows how to establish that connection??
Thanks in advance!

Sorry to come to you with this one but my sql is terrible......
I have a recordset named Leave reason. Its numerical and can cover some 20 differing numbers. These are not always sequential.
Ive tried a crosstab - not good enough, Ive tried a form with =Count(IIf([Leave reason]=9,0)) in it, this works, but, it requires a text box for every possible number that could occur!
To labour intensive that.
So the bottom line is is there a small piece of sql that I can add in to the queries sql view to handle this issue, if there is can someone just lay down the code (yes I know Its naughty to ask) so Ill learn and be able to do it in some 30 other
queries of the same nature.
thanks guys - sorry its so drawn out

I have a database for storing part numbers of power supplies, very basic database. I also have a multifield search form and search query. All very basic stuff, however I am new to access and cannot seem to find out what the is causing this issue.
There are 174 entries in the database table, they all start with "0" for the part number, I have wild cards in my Query so that for instance if I searched 0 for the part number field, it should return all 174 entries, but for some reason it only returns 49 entries.
