Oracle Criteria

Oct 18, 2006

My firm uses Access 2000 FEs to an Oracle 8 data warehouse.

I'm having trouble with a (native Access) query of Oracle joined tables using a text value from a combo box column, not the bound column, as part of the query criteria, not a pass-through query. I know, I know. but I've inherited it all.

The query return nothing. When I filter using specific string characters from the combo box column or a pure text criteria, the query returns data correctly.

It occurred to me that Oracle can't use the displayed column from the combo box as a query criteria. I'll try a text box tomorrow.

Any ideas?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Oracle, DB2 Or SQL Server?

Apr 19, 2006

Oracle Express Edition, DB2 Express Edition-C, and SQL Server Express Edition.Which one would you develop for / work with if you had a choice (SQL Server, Oracle, or DB2)?I am thinking of making a database application with one of the above and the criteria is:Great support, communityRock Solid and stable; where some clients do not have a DBAFastEasy to back-up and restoreRelatively easy to program and developEasy to deploy and scaleThe general direction I am getting from a few people is leaning toward SQL Server Express. They say it is easier to work with than Oracle, (supposedly Oracle is not for the faint hearted especially when there are network issues) but Oracle is faster and maybe more stable than the others. Haven't really heard anything about DB2...MySQL is out, simply because of the price of an OEM for a desktop application that can be expanded later is too high for what I want to do.Thoughts?Thanks

Oracle's Access

Jun 9, 2006

I donot have much information at this time, but siiting in an Oracle fusion meeting, the Oracle reps mentioned they have a product to compete with MSAccess. Of course it runs on Oracle instead. They said Oracle had to come with a competing product because to many Access databases turn into Sql Server databases.
That is about all the info. I have right now on this. Thought it an interesting subject however.

Oracle Tables

Apr 21, 2006

Hi,

I have made a link through ODBC to a Oracle table but when I view the table through Access 2003 I don't get the same data, some postings are dubble and others are missing. The number of rows are correct and it is also possible to create reports with a correct result.

I have also created a Form to be able to add and amend posting in the Oracle table, but the result is the same as when I just view the table, missing and dubble postings.

Any idea what could be wrong?

Thanks

Oracle ODBC Connection

Apr 19, 2006

Hi, I have a front end that i have developed in access which manipulates a table stored in an oracle database. I have an ODBC connection to the oracle table.

When i open the access front end i am confronted with the

Oracle ODBC Driver Connect and am promted for username, service name and password.

My question is... Can I in any way take what is inputted into the driver connect for username and password.
For example to deactivate/activate some command buttons depending on the username that is inputted

Can anything like this be done or is this driver connect a totally individual thing?

Thanks

Oracle Vs Access And Excel

Apr 20, 2006

Hi guys,

I'm just looking for some general views and opinions here and would love to know what people think; advantages/ disadvantages etc.

We have a system of spreadsheets traking various ongoing projects in our organisation which are sitting on 6 different regional servers. This poses a number of problems as you can imagine - no way of collating the data or generating reports centrally. Updates/bug fixes cannot be carried out because it would require chaning each workbook individually and so on and so on.

I am trying to make an argument to create a new Oracle based database or similar which will be held on a central server and accessed through the company's intranet.

What I'm trying to do is compile a list of the possible reasons to do this or not as the case may be. Opinions or arguments for and against would be most welcome.

Thanks
Liam

ODBC Connection To Oracle.

Jun 12, 2006

Hello Guy,

We use an Oracle base software called Trapeze and Microsoft Access sometime used as a front hand to access the Trapeze oracle tables.
Due to the possible dangers of allowing the users Access, Is there a way to block the users access to Administrative Tools, to create ODBC connectivity to our databases? Trapeze's security is antiquated and uses Oracle to validate accessibility. Since a user has to be created in Oracle, with update, delete, read, write, append rights, for Trapeze to work correctly, a user can connect directly to the Db through Access and make changes directly to the data, unless the ability to prevent them from creating their own ODBC connections.".
Any ideas on how to prevent them to create that ODBC connection?Thank for your help.

MS Access/ Oracle Connections.

Hello Guy,

Due to the possible dangers of allowing the users Access, Is there a way to block the users from changing the oracle tables and only be able in MS Access to create reports and queries?

ODBC Connection To Oracle

Aug 22, 2006

I have a Acces 2000 front end that links to an Oracle 9i back end. Everytime i open a form/table the ODBC dialog box appears asking for username/password/server. Is there a way to bypass this using vba code so that when the Access app starts the connection is established behind the scenes and therefore preventing the dialog box appearing.

Importing From Oracle (dba_tab_columns)

Running Access 2000.

Tried using a link table however it gives me an error saying that I must specify owner because several tables with that name exist. I hit ok and the window closes, I never receive a chance to specify owner (sys?). Is there a way around this or another way to create a table that is constantly accurate with my Oracle table?

Dear All,

I'm trying to link to Oracle through ODBC...everyhting is set up, and I can connect and I can also see the tables..The problem is...there are just toooo many tables in the link window!!!....

Access/Oracle Link HELP!

Jun 28, 2004

I was hired to write some reports in Access 2000 for a small company (max of 6 users at a time). The database was created by someone else and he decided that moving to Oracle was the answer to some of their issues (losing data due to record locking). The guy did not know Access at all so that DB is screwed up (another issue all together). I had no problem creating the reports and they ran fine on my home and work computer. When I imported the reports into the Access DB at this company they ran fine (but VERY slow). I then got a call 3 days later from them saying the reports wouldn’t run. The owner decided to upgrade to Access 2003 to see if that would help but that created another set of new error messages. When I try to run the report it gives two messages: "can not perform action/make changes in record primary key" and "record not found". These reports are based on simple select queries. Trying to run the reports freezes the application. I even tried to open the tables and it either freezes the app or takes about 15 minutes to open. These tables are linked to Oracle 8i. The newest OBDC drivers have been installed and the newest Oracle 8I edition has been installed. Since I can run the reports in Access I assume the issue is the link with Oracle. I have very little Oracle knowledge. From what I can tell the data is stored in Oracle and Access pulls the data via the links. Has anyone experienced this? Does anyone know how to fix the issue? Your help is very much appreciated!

Importing Records From Oracle To Access

Mar 22, 2007

I'm using the following tools/systems:

* Oracle 9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.5.0
* Microsoft Access 2002
* Access is running on a XP Professional desktop

What I'm doing at the moment is:

* Linking the Oracle tables in Access via ODBC
* Using Access to run develop & run queries against the linked Oracle tables

What I'm trying to figure out:

* What is the easiest way to export the query results to a local (on my machine) Access table?

Some of the queries return < 65000 rows, so I can export to excel & import the excel file back into access. Unfortunately this doesn't work for the bigger queries.

Suggestions?

Access Database Migration To Oracle

May 10, 2005

Hi, I have a question regarding improving the performance of an Access front-end linking to Oracle tables.

Basically what I have done so far is migrate around 35 or so tables into an Oracle 9i database. After linking the tables in Access and prototyping some of the existing forms/reports/queries in Access, I noticed that the speed performance of everything was noticeably slower. Any suggestions as to how I can resolve this issue? For read online queries and reports, I understand that I can use a pass-through query to speed things up. However, all the forms need to allow for data entry and based on my understanding, the pass-through query solution would NOT work for this.

Any suggestions? Any help would be appreciated.

SQL Pass Through Query/ms Acces To Oracle

Jun 3, 2005

I'm getting an error (SQL command not properly ended) but main thing is, I can't get it to recognize the ms access db.
In a nutshell...I want to query the oracle db for a number and count, then scan a number into msaccess and have it 'find' the matching number in oracle and return the count only to ms access. More comments below between the code and here are table names for both oracle and access:
ORACLE: Table name is: batch_status bs
Field names are: batch_num and Batch size

MS ACCESS: Table name is tblbatchstatus
Field names are: batchnum and idcount

CODE in PASSTHROUGH QUERY:
select batch_num,BATCH_SIZE
from batch_status bs
(this works and selects all batch numbers and sizes from oracle)
(If I say 'where batch_num = 60024 -----this works also....)
However...when I add the below part...I get errors...it can't seem to match to access database....


SELECT tblbatchstatus.Batchnum, tblbatchstatus.Idcount
FROM tblbatchstatus;

where batch_num = tblbatchstatus.batchnum

And I want to just say: where batch_num = <<<scanned batch number>>> and return the id count.

Tables :: Using Oracle As Back-end For Access?

Apr 23, 2013

I have written a few solutions in Access (using access 2007). Now I going to create a few new ones for my company. We use Oracle for our main database and was wondering what would be the advantages and disadvantages of using Oracle as my backend while Access is my front end?

Also, should I create the queries in Access or in Oracle?

finally, is there anything I need to do differently?
