I have an ODBC connection to our company's data that uses Macola. I can enter criteria in the fields in Access to filter that data, but when I try to put a parameter query in such as [Enter order number:] I always get an "ODBC-call failed" message, error# 3146. Can I even solve this problem, or am I just not going to be able to actively change the criteria unless through a pivot chart or table, or by hand? Can anyone help? Thanks.
View RepliesI have a new user who is trying to connect wirelessly. I set up the ODBC connection on his laptop but when he tries to run a report that uses queries looking at linked tables he gets ODBC call failed. Is it because he is trying it wirelessly. I'm just the data guy so I don't know too much about networking.

I have a standalone Access DB with 4 linking tables therein. They all point to tables that are stored in a server Access DB. I can open 3 of these tables in datasheet view without any problem, except one.
Whenever I try to open it, I am prompted following msg "ODBC call failed etc... server API error (#669) etc..."
And when I click OK to close the Error msg box, then another msg box appears with the msg: "Microsoft Access can't open the table in Datasheet view"
I've deleted the link table and recreated it. But I still can't open the table in datasheet view.
Does anyone knows what's to do? :confused:
This error comes when try to run a query in Access. Does someone knows how to fix it?
ODBC --call failed.

Any help on this will be greatly appreaciated. Thanks a lot.

Using Access 2003 and SQL Server 2005.
The Access database uses linked tabled to the SQL Server.
I have a 1 table query where I am trying to return data for a search form.
Here is the query:
CaseID = Forms!Search!cboCase
This works fine. However, when I try to get the query to return all records when there is no case selected using:
CaseID = Forms!Search!cboCase OR Forms!Search!cboCase is null
I get an ODBC call failed.
query itself doesn't work.
I am running Access as a front end to SQL and maintain all reports and forms from a .mdb. I then release an .mde to a different location for end users to use.
Each time I release an .mde and a user attempts to run a report an "ODBC call failed" error appears. So I have to re-link tables on users pc's. The Users ODBC connections are set up the same as mine.
Has anyone any ideas why this may be happening?
Thanks

I am facing a problem with ODBC call failed error latly.The problem doesnt occur on my development PC but only on other PC's.I'm a beginer in Access, vba and I cant find a solution to make it work on every machines.
Code:
Dim qSQL As String
DATA = "#" & DatePart("m", DATA) & "/" & DatePart("d", DATA) & "/" & DatePart("yyyy", DATA) & "#"
qSQL = "SELECT Sum([IL]*[TO])" & _
"FROM PUBLIC_S INNER JOIN PUBLIC_SD ON PUBLIC_S.U = PUBLIC_SD.U " & _
"WHERE (((PUBLIC_SD.DAT)=" & DAT & ") AND ((PUBLIC_SD.ANA)='" & ANA & "') AND ((PUBLIC_SD.IA)='" & ia & "') AND ((PUBLIC_SD.AN_C)='PIMSS'));
Set Db = CurrentDb()
Set rs1 = Db.OpenRecordset(qSQL)
I have a query that uses an odbc table.
The query prompt for a date: [Enter Date]
After entering the date, I get error: "ODBC Call Failed"
Yet...when I set the criteria to the date I want: #01/01/2005# I can retrieve the data, no problem.
Any idea why I get the ODBC Call Faile error when prompting for the date?
Thanks....

Hi! I have a query setup that feeds off of three combo boxes on a form. It is setup to allow a user to search and calculate revenue for a selected time period by company, then department, then page. If all three or just company are selected, there are no issues running the data. However, if only company and department is selected I receive an 'ODBC--Call Failed' message. The issues seems to be stemming from the department field as I can link the department table to the main table and the query will run without error. The problem with that bandaid is that the query takes more than 15 minutes to run that way as opposed to about 2 minutes to pull more data at the company level.
Any suggestions on why this is happening or a fix that can be put in place? Any help is greatly appreciated.
I can provide more details if needed. Thanks!
When running a query in Access 2013 or 2010 we get an ODBC call failed. However when we run just the form, which the query connects to, it works just fine.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi All....getting an "ODBC --call failed" error when trying to re-link tables in the Linked Table Manager in Access. I'm having a problem connecting to one particular Oracle database. I am able to connect to other DBs with no problem.
I can also connect to the problem database through SQL Navigator. And I've been able to connect to it in Access in the past. Any ideas?
Thanks!
i am using access as a front end to SQL Server 2005 and link tables via ODBC.
Today when I run a query (normally works fine) I receive an ODBC Failed message box. I have tried opening each link table connected to the query and can open fine.
can anyone suggest other reasonf or this failure?
I am running a report that is built up of several backend queries.
I have identified the query that is causing the ODBC Failed message to appear, but cannot identify what is causing the problem.
I have tried to recreate the queries starting form the base query (which works fine).
Cannot anyone suggest anything?
Thanks

I Need help,
I have an access 2002 front end and I am linked to a sql server express 2005 backend and in one of my tables I am getting this error when I add a record to a work order table. The error is ODBC connection on INSERT failed on linked table.
A few strange rhings happen. It only involves customers with over (approx.) 140 work orders (there is a one to many with customer to work order). All other customers seem to be immune to this.
Also, if you go to the tables directly from a access database window, you can still add/edit or delete records, but in the form view, it gives you an error.
I have tried several things including changing code (the orgional code was set dbs= currentDB and dbs.execute("INSERT.......)
I have found similiar posting but no real direct causes. does anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this?
Thanks

I'm beginning to lose the will to live over this one. I've been merrily developing a large application (ADP) in Access 2000 and 2003 over the past 5 years. The size of the ADP is now around 30MB and it contains the following quantities of objects:
23 modules
424 forms (409 with modules)
296 reports (284 with modules)
My problem is that whenever I use the decompile switch and then recompile I get the dreaded "The Save Operation Failed" message on saving the code and the whole ADP is then rendered corrupt. My only option is to create a new ADP and import each object type (Modules first, then forms then reports) separately, compiling as I go. This seems to work OK but when I open a file I've been working on in Access 2000 on an Access 2003 PC it seems to decompile it by itself and then won't compact/save. Does anyone have any ideas about this? I've searched Google and can't come up with any reasonable suggestions.
My program is an Access 2003 database that connects to SQL 2000. I have a continuous form that shows between 10 an 25 records. I have coded an update button that when clicked updates a check box on each record displayed and then updates the form. Normally this works perfectly. However, sometimes when the button is clicked nothing happens for aproximately a minute then the user gets the error ODBC - call failed and no records are uodated. I have tried resetting the view from Dynaset to Dynaset (Incosistent Updates) and extending the timeout to 300. I have also tried extending the MSAceess Page timeout setting to 5000 instead of 5 under ODBC. Nothing has helped. Does any have any other solutions? Or a way to get a more specific error. I am really just guessing that it is a time out issue.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi,
I'm attempting to create a foreign key field in a sub-query by using Left() and Instr() to parse the text of my key field and return the characters prior to the second "-".
Example: 002-C100-4569 ---> 002-C100
When I build a second query with a relationship between the foreign key field previously mentioned with the key field in an associated query, I get the error "Invalid Procedure Call"
Here is my foreign key generator string:
CirNo: Left([tbl_IntExt].[ASSETID],InStr(5,[tbl_IntExt].[ASSETID],"-",1)-1)
The query data breifly displays, followed by the error messge, then all query fields display "#Name":mad:
The overall goal is to create a query to update the values in 002-C100-4569 (Child) with values from 002-C100 (Parent).
Any help or advise is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

I am trying to run a query in an Access Database from another program using ODBC.
The query contains a user defined function and works fine when I run it in Access.
When I try to run the same query externally via ODBC I get the following error:
"ERROR 1 - [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Undefined function 'replace_chr13' in expression"
If I replace my user defined function wit a standard Access function such as LCase, the query can be accessed externally fine!
Can anyone suggest a solution?

Is there anyway to check if a connection can not be established or the database is being updated
asp page sends friendly message to user that the database is being updated or temporary down or please try again in few seconds.
Any help and idea will be highly appreciated in advance

The code below should add a record to another table when a box is ticked. It worked fine when I wrote it in a local Access 2003 form.I have since migrated the tables to Azure and connect via ODBC, and now I get this error:nOpenRecordsetBug.PNG
A search for Identities told me to modify the code as in the second screenshot, and I now have a different error: InvalidArgument.JPG
i am using access against an Oracle DB through an ODBC driver, and when appending records to a local table, if access gets an Oracle record error "#deleted", the append query aborts. . . that's fine, but I can't figure out how to trap the error to get the rest of the records. . .
ugh! see attached graphic
thanks

My tables are sybase linked tables to my Access front end. I get this error whenever i click away from my mainform while my not-null fields (textboxes) have not been entered. So, i would like to put an error message "somewhere" that tells the user to fill in the necessary fields and highlight the necessary textboxes in red, instead of this scary ODBC message
http://img82.imageshack.us/img82/6829/error0el.png :eek: :eek:
When i put my error handling in the afterUpdate or afterInsert Event. I still get the above error msg instead of my msgbox.
Where do i put this message? or should be question be, "what the proper way to handle this intimidating error? :)
Here's my error handling:
On Error GoTo Err_Form_AfterInsert
'do something
Exit_Form_AfterInsert:

I'm having to recode some old MS Access DBs so they will run in the following environments:
Office 2000 on WinXP
Office 2003 on WinXP
Office 2010 on WinXP
Office 2000 on Win7
Office 2003 on Win7
Office 2010 on Win7
When I wrote my code for Office 2000 on WinXP things were simple because directory paths were the same across all computers and I could hard code pathing when using a shell command to launch other files.
My new approach is to make a function call to the Windows registry to determine the default executable and path for opening a file based upon its extension (see apicFindExecutable in basWindows API module).
I'm able to use code to create a shell call and debug print it to the immediate window. If I put my cursor in the immediate window at the end of the shell call and hit [enter] the external file will open as desired. If I try to open the external file directly through code, I get a file not found error.
To recreate the error take the following steps:
(1) browse to files that are accessible from your computer
(2) click the PREPARE DATA AND OPEN MAIL MERGE DOCUMENTS command button
Shell function call is made by the fnOpenFile function located in the basOpenFile module. There has to be a trick here that I'm missing.
