Access Db Online
Sep 24, 2004Greetings,
I have created a database to track applicants’ eligibility process. Mainly, a Head of Household will call or apply in person for a medical assistance for self or for child #1, child #2 etc. I created two tables tblHeadHouseHold and tblApplicants with a (one-to-many relationships) and, a main form (frmHeadHouseHold) and a subfrom (sfrmApplicants). So far, the database works fine and just recently, I was approached first, to make this database available online, so that applicants can go to a given center (clinic) to fill in the application, and we then pull the application from the office. Second, to add a new field (source of Application) where applicants learn about our program (Friend, School, Doctor, Advertisement, other) to create a ‘Source Report’, how many from friend, how many from school, from Advertisement etc.
I’m using access 2003 and would like to know:
1. What I need to make the existing db available online
2. Given the type of report I need to generate for ‘Source of Application’ shall I use check box, drop downs,
or a lookup table?
Thank you in advance,

Creating Online Format Of Database
May 25, 2005I currently have a database on my hd and four other ppl have a copy on theirs. (We are in different physical locations which makes it very slow to put the database on our server).
Currently eveyrone is sending me files that i upload to my copy of the database so i have all of their data.
the obvious setbacks to this is that the data is not live and some of the changes might be missed etc.
i would like to move this and house the tables on my company's intranet
what would i need to do to accomplish this?
Putting My Database Online.... My Options??
Feb 13, 2007I would like to put my database that I have created online so I can update it from anywhere, and was wondering what are my options - does access have a feature to do this? Or will it involve using dynamic coding to update the tables? I would like to use the forms that I have already created etc ... but is this possible?
I have my own server if this helps?!

2 Problems With An Online Access Database
Jul 28, 2007I am developing a very simple little app online that is giving me 2 main areas of trouble. Basically, all this app does is take information from a form and put it into an access db which is located on a web server (it also sends out an email to the admin when the form is submitted, but that is working fine). So there is one page that is the form and it is pointed at a second page that does the insert to the db, sends the email and then displays a Thank You message. I set up a ODBC connection on the web server to the database that seems to be working fine ( I can run a SELECT query against it and get info out of it - I put one dummy record in the db just for testing).
I'm having 2 main problems as follows:
Permissions - the sys admin is hesitant to open up the folder that contains the DB (and nothing else) to allow for write/read control to the anonymous internet user account. Just to test it, he did and I was able to run the query on the page (although I had problems with inserting - see problem 2 below). The sys admin suggested that I "use different credentials" to access this db in this folder and set up a separate user account/password for this purpose on this folder. 2 questions:
1.) how dangerous is it to allow read/write access for the anonymous internet user account?
2. what kind of code (.asp) could I use to access the DB using the separate user account the sys admin set up?
Insert to the DB not working - When I do run this page, it seems to run fine, with seemingly no errors, but when I do a SELECT query against it, none of the data is there. here is the code I am using:
<%
Dim objConn
Set objConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
objConn.ConnectionString = "DSN=RVU_contact_db"
objConn.Mode = 3
objConn.Open
strSQL = "insert into `contacts`(first_name,last_name,email,phone,addres s,city,state,zip,subject,message,department) " _
& "values ('" & request.form("first_name") & "','" & request.form("last_name") & "','" & request.Form("email") & "','" & request.form("phone") & "','" & request.form("address") & "','" & request.Form("city") & "','" & request.form("state") & "','" & request.form("zip") & "','" & request.Form("subject") & "','" & request.form("message") & "','" & request.form("department") & "')"
objConn.execute strSQL
objConn.Close
%>
I notice that there is a .ldb that seems to stay open in that folder, even when I do a objConn.Close, and I don't seem to be able to delete this off the server.
Any ideas on how to solve these problems? Any help on any of the above greatly appreciated.
Sincerely

2007 Store Online Or Offline?
Oct 23, 2007I found a web site that reports 2007 bugs that says this:
Do not use offline folders to store your databases.
Actually, the full thing says:
Update Sep 14, 2007: There is now a known issue where a database stored in offline folders is lost when compacted. There is also another bug where you lose the objects from the Navigation Pane when you delete an object, if the database is stored in an offline folder. Do not use offline folders to store your databases.
What does this mean? I shoudn't have my database on a server? I should have it on the web? Eh?

Online Tutorial For Form Design?
Jun 4, 2005I am new to Access and not a sophisticated user of computers. I've been given the task of redesigning some forms on an existing data base. I understand how to put the new fields I'm adding into the table associated with the forms I'm working on, but I've having a hard time actually moving stuff around the screen and getting it lined up.
Is there an online tutorial or reference I can go to that will teach me the layout basics?
Online Form -> Email -> Access Database
Jul 13, 2005I’ve recently added form functionality on my website, which runs with the aid of a perl script and sends the results via an email message.
I’m currently able to import, or link, data from a specific mail folder (Outlook 2002) to an MS Access database (Access 2002). However, my problem is the message body, which contains the data I’m interested in, is all placed in the one field.
I would like the data contained in the message body to be imported into separate fields but I have not been able to figure out how this is done.
I can arrange the data within the email message body to conform to a particular format if needed, even HTML, but I can't work out how to import the data into separate fields.
Tried searching this forum but couldn’t find the answers. Perhaps there is a better way of processing online forms, one which I’m not aware of.
My web service does support mySQL and also has ODBC dirvers for Access but this to me seems like an over kill approach particularly since I don't need access to data from the website (active pages)
Can anyone help?
Thanks.
Offline DB Showing Online Results Through Frontpage
Oct 5, 2006I have googled and search for this subject and am more confused now...
I am running an offline A03 db with XP and have a hosted website. Right now I have a separate db online that is used for the results on the website, and it works correctly. I used frontpage to create the form.
Now with our offline db I would like to enter the information on a form, and have the results show up on our website, to avoid keying the same info multiple times.
The data that shows up on the website will not be edited, but the table offline will have some fields for edit, that will not show up online.
Is there a way to connect an offline table/query to show up as results online? And if so how or examples? Thanks in advance.
Online Entry To DB - Views On Flat File (CSV)
Feb 13, 2007Hi Guys,
Does anyone have any experience of writing to an Access database via Web.
Do you think it is feasible, for an online entry form, to have 'customers' input their details or wahtever, then this info is sent to some sort of flat file?CSV is it called?
Then the admin can check these, then import to DB quite easily?

URGENT: Protecting Access Databases Online
Sep 20, 2006Hi All,
What's the best way to go about protecting an MS Access database online? Hoping to launch tomorrow, but no can do without protecting the DB first
Basically, I have a database containing some personal information and I need to block people from downloading it, while still allowing my ASP pages to read/write/modify its data.
Can anyone point me in the right direction here? Any relative links, methods, tutorials, etc, would be a fantastic.
I've looked into User-Level Security Passwords, but am not sure if there's a better way to achieve what i'm trying to do (i.e. setting up specific access rights to the folder in which the MDB file is contained).
Thanks in advance...
