My office is upgrading from office 2000 to 2003 this weekend. Should I run the
"Tools - Database Utilities - Convert Database - To Access 2002 2003 Format"
I have about 10 small databases various users access. Is it good practice to run this or just keep it in an office 200 format? Thanks.
Neighbour has got a new `puter which came with Office 2007 (without Access )
He needs Access to run an app for his business.
He still has a copy of Office 2000 Pro.
Are there any issues with installing Access 2000 alongside Office 2007. ?
The app calls Outlook to send emails.
Will there be any problems when Access runs this - ? -
Dim stAppName As String
stAppName = "C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOfficeoutlook.exe"
Call Shell(stAppName, 1)
TIA

If I design an .ADP project in 2007, will users be able to use this if they only have Office 2003?
...or is there a way of making an exe file with Access projects?
Ever since my company upgraded everyone to Office 2003 I have the following issues:
When I click the checkbox that automatically send an email I get the following Pop-up.
"A program is trying to access e-mail addresses you have stored in Outlook. Do you want to allow this?
If this is unexpected, it may be a virus and you should choose "No".
Then you click either yes or no.
After you click yes you then get the next Pop-up which basically says the same thing and you have to click yes again and it finally take you into outlook so the email will go.
Is there anything to get rid of this nuisance? We did not have to do this with Office 2000. I have lowered the security to as low as it will go and still this keeps happening.
Thanks in advance.
Good morning,
We just switched to Access 2003 (from 2000) last week, and now none of my reports will open. Everything else works fine, I can open tables, queries, forms, etc., but I can't even open a report in Design mode.
Has anyone else had this problem? Is it an Access 2003 quirk or am I doing something wrong? Any ideas on how to fix this would be great. Since all of the other objects work I guess I could just redo the reports--there are only thre of them. I seem to remember something funny happening when I moved from Access 97 to 2000 too...
Again, any help or ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I'm trying to locate the Developer Extensions so that I can compile my Access 2003 application to distribute to my end user.
I'm getting totally lost in the myriad of documents and links on the MS website that keep sending my round in ever decreasing circles. I've downloaded Visual Studio Express - Visual Basic Edition but can't seem to find it in there.
Can anyone point me in the direction of the software that I need to be able to distribute my Access 2003 applications.
Our Access database is multiple user. The front end is on the local drive and the data file is on our main server. Our database has numerous queries, forms and reports accessed by command buttons or directly. Various queries are set to merge with Word documents.
What are major or annoying problems that have been encountered by converting. Our database is contains our membership information and is crucial to our operation. Detailing problems/solutions if possible would be extremely helpful. Asking for allot but very concerned about conversion.
Thanks for any input.
Hello,
I have installed Microsoft Access 2003 and Microsoft Access 2003 Developer Extensions. I can create Access application by using the Package Wizard.
But after I upgrade from Microsoft Access 2003 to Microsoft Access 2007.
I can't use the Package Wizard.
How can I do to solve this?
Thanks.

Hello Folks, i was wondering whether any one knows any dll or file that stores office xp icons. I wanna extract them.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI needs some advice on how to proceed.
Our company is devolving some operations to a sub office for 3 out of 11 business units. we have a central DB that we use to record monthly events the problem is that the parent group has to be able to update records for all units but the sub office is only allowed to see and edit their records
At the moment the data is all stored in one table and we use a Front end back end with local front ends for access I have a table to say if a unit is part of the sub office or not and in the sub office front end i have a Query which links the 2 tables together and filters the records to show only sub office
SELECT tbldatatable.*, tblShipName.Manager
FROM tblShipName RIGHT JOIN tbldatatable ON tblShipName.ShipName = tbldatatable.Ship
WHERE (((tblShipName.Manager)="nv"));
the remainder of the forms and querys all run from this query rather than the tables
the problem is the join makes it a non updatable record set
what is the advice on how to achieve what i need as i cant see a simple way to proceed
thanks

Not sure if this has been posted yet. Microsoft has released beta of Office 2007, this includes a new UI to many of the old office programs. For the time being you can get it here:
http://www.microsoft.com/office/preview/beta/getthebeta.mspx
Beta 2 of Internet Explorer 7 has also been released:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/default.mspx
And I know I've posted on this before, but just so it is in the same place, Visual Studio 2005 can be downloaded here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/products/trial/
There are also many business-oriented programs in beta for testing. If you own a small business, or think your company may have a need ~ test it out, get a feel, for free.
I just found out something that was pretty cool about Office 2007, specifically Access 2007 and Outlook 2007. Working with them together, you can create an email form to gather data for Access and when the email is returned, all filled out, Outlook will export the data into your specified Access table.
I just played with it a little and it appears to have some issues when dealing with multiple tables, but for a simple data gathering it would seem pretty cool. In fact you can set it up so that it won't automatically process until you want to, or you can have it process right when the email comes in.
I had a Label in the form that when i started design the Form, I supposed that will be permanent.
After few records, users needed to change the Text on that Label depending the customer they reffer to.
Therefore i attached a Microsoft Word Document OLE Unbound Object to give permission to users to change
the text when they need it.
But if u change the text in one record then will change to all of the other records.
Can u give any idea how i will manage to have a default label for all the records and users when they need
to change the Text only for a particular record.
Is this possible? Or I need to declare it as a Field on a Table therefore can be saved in every record?
Please any idea...
Thank you
Hi Guys,
I hope I am in the right forum area. I have just upgraded to XP Home and have a choice of Office systems to install. However I have Office 97 Developer Edition that I use for Access Databases and this must be installed. I can also install either Office 2000 or Office XP Professional. What are the problems with having any of these combinations and Access 97 with the developer.
I have heard that there may be licencing issues or I may have to install in a particular order. Any advice would be appreciated.
Many thanks
Chris
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 thinking of starting to use office XP for a small system I have. My question is:
Is office XP more compatible with internet explorer in terms of VBA automating? I have had to work around internet explorer quite a lot in office 97, and I haven´t been able to do what I want.
Fuga.
Hi, I have created a database with Office developer 1.5 and I am having problems creating my runtime version. I have been told that the VBA included in this program wont do the job, that I must purchase a full version Visual Basic 6.0. Is this true?
Thanks all
Just wondering what the consensus is on MS Office 2007 package. I find it tasty and is quit different from the past versions. That being said, I am relearning the options and finding many new features that weren’t available in the past.
I am very impressed with it thus far.

I produce a report from a query. One of the fields combines in a calculated field based on numerous other fields, a sentence that may be up to five printed lines of text. While it views correctly in the Report's Preview screen, it is less than perfect when I send it to a Word 2002 document using the Office Links/Publish with Word tool. Despite producing the same font face and size and having the same left/right margins, it truncates unpredictably and inserts a hard-return. It will take a five-row report field and produce a five-row Rich Text Format field...but often with a few lost words at the end of the final row. Some rows have an inch of unused space at the end of them in the RTF file...wasted space.
Any suggestions as to cause?
Hello
At our firm we have a mix of Microsoft Office (2000) Standard licenses and Microsoft Office(2000) Professional liceneses.
After reading through a lot of literature from Microsofts own site it is possible to create Data access pages to enable users to view and have basic inputting into an access back end database.It also states that you need a qualifying License to use microsofts 'web components' to be able to do this.
Now another of our offices has decided to 'check' with microsofts helpdesk about wether or not you need a seperate access license for each user and suprise suprise Microsoft state you do.
Their own site states that Office standard IS a qualifying license see here
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnacc2k2/html/deploydap.asp
but microsoft are saying otherwise....
Anyone know if i am commitiing an offense or am i just being bullied by microsoft.I have asked them to produce the legislation that states i am doing wrong but they have not yet responded
cheers
Question:
I notice that I have ACCESSRT.msi and ACCESSRT.CAB on my MS Office Professional CD. Why would I need VSTO? For the packaging wizard? Why can't I just install these files on the computers of my users and then an .mde file?
Why would they have included these files if this wasn't their intention?
It just seems silly that I would have to pay $799 for files that are included on my disk. (Microsoft? Silly? Surely you jest.) I would need VSTO for absolutely NOTHING else but this.
Can someone "enlighten" me on the thinking here?
I would also clarify this is for interoffice work only (if it makes a difference) and not something I'm distributing for a "paid" end user.
I am building a database for users to input escalations in. The users that are actually keying the information in, do not have MS office. When they try to access the DAP html file, a message appears at the top of the page that states "The page requires the Microsoft Office Web Components.
See the Microsoft Office Web site for more information."
Can data access pages be used without office being installed? I have heard that it could also be the users internet explorer security settings.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi,
I have a link table to my contacts folder held within the public folders on the exchange server. The link table was created automatically using the wizard and connect fine. When you open it, all fields are showing except for the email type and email address.
I cannot think of any reason why it would not show this. When you look at the table, the fields are actually there they just dont return any records? Even more frustratingly, every so often you can open up the table and they appear only to disappear again the next time!!
Any ideas?
