Possible To Move All References To A Folder On Server?
May 28, 2007
hi guys,
i have 20 odd machines sharing the one access front end, however i find that i have to recompile the front end on some machines as the references dont match up. i'm assuming the office install is slightly different with the paths or something. there are just 3 machines that have this error but it is frustrating as i have to recompile and have 3 different copies of the one program.
is it possible to have all of my references stored on the server and they replace the current ones? i tried putting them in a folder and using the browse button but it only updated some references and not others. the obvious error i have with the 3 different ones is the trim function, it always throws an error where i use that.
I'm trying to automate a process of selecting a set of file/s and move them in a folder. When I click on a button, it should open a current folder that is setup in the code.
Lets say that I have a folder C:documents est, and very time I click on the button, it should open the dialog box with that path so I can select the files from another folder, drag them there and they will be saved in that folder.
This will form part of wider automation that will send an email stating that those file/s where placed in that folder.
I have in the same form where the button is placed, 3 check boxes that needs to be passed to the email as well that one or all the files where placed in the folder.
I have a form which has a field called quote directory, this contains the path of the quote documents and sub folders, I also have a field called project directory.
When a quote is confirmed I have it all working so a new folder is created with specfic details like project number etc.What I want to do is move the folder from the quote directory and put it in the newly created folder in the project directory.
I'm planning make a move from Access to SQL Server. To be honest I never used it before, but I told to my bosses that I'm a Gooroo in it.:) So can you guys give me an idea if it is really hard to make a move, to upload the existing databases and to get used to it. How long it takes? What books would you recommend? Or what forum?
I'm looking into buying SQL Server 2014 Standard Edition.I would like to move my split end back end to the SQL Server, however I'm having a little confusion with all the different licensing out there.I have 20 computers that will be accessing the SQL Server.
We have a server that we use to run a Microsoft Access application. This application creates folders, subfolders and files on the server.Users are in 4 different offices. Each office has at least 3 computers. Some users also work from home.
Users creates file through word, or scanning a document or by saving an email on their local pc.My problem is that users need to be able to save a file to a specific folder on server.
I have a access DB for my employees with pictures. The main form displays their info and a picture as I scroll page to page. But I also have contact report that will show all info and picture. I am having difficulties linking the pictures from a seperate folder on my server.
I have some code set up to automate scanning from access to a specific folder on the server. I have searched the web for different codes and have not come across anything that will scan an unknown amount of documents. The best I found was the code I am currently using, that will scan up to 10 documents separately, then convert these documents into 1 PDF. This is not ideal, however, because it would require the user to scan 1 document, wait, than scan another, wait, etc. Also, the code I am currently using will only scan from the glass, not the auto feeder, and I am unsure how to change this.

I am fairly new to databases and have goolged for this question. I have a database created that will keep track of drawing files in our archive. What I would like to do is, give the end-users the option to type in the file location and click a button to copy there files from their project folder directly to the archive directory on the server.
Would this be fairly easy to do or would it require the assitance of a access database programmer? Thanks for any help.
I'm trying to open a folder based on a BIN nr. This folder could be in a main folder that has diferent subfolder. As there where differnt naming used to create the folderes, one of the things they have always is the BIN nr. It alwasy start with a unique number and maybe I could use it to scan the subfolders and open that one that the BIN nr is equal as in the field BIN.
Now we have serveral 1000th of folders and finding them takes time.
I have designed a couple of DB's using Access 2002 in Access 2000 format. While these all work perfectly in Access 2002 there a few users still using Access 2000 and are experiencing errors (specifically with Graph.exe which is 10.0 in 2002 and 9.0 in 2000 and also with the Calendar Control which is 10.0 in 2002 and 9.0 in 2000).
Is there a way to use the 2002 versions of these controls in 2000 or do I have to create the DB using the Access 2000 versions (in which case would I need to design the DB in Access 2000 instead of 2002).
Can anyone suggest anything or point me in the right direction.
Anyone seen this before? The scenario is - A distributed application on ten machines - all running the MDE in runtime. All machines are running perfectly. Minor changes made to the application and new MDE built. After roll-out, six machines work perfectly with the new version. The remaining four run the application but experience the dreaded "#Name" in various places. Revert back to the previous version - and all run perfectly again. Cannot be missing files - have not called for any and previous version works. Cannot be broken references - six are running OK. Cannot investigate on any of the machines because they are running MDEs. ??
Is it possible to set which VBA reference boxes are ticked each time a database is loaded?
A problem is created when a person amending the database to the person using it has different setups and so some of the references show as "missing" and so compile errors show on loading.
Iīm having problems with the datevalue function. Now I know the date function sometimes malfunctions due to a references problem, so I'm thinking maybe this is the same thing. However, there are no missing references.
I tried searching the forum, but couldnīt find the answer.
Hi guys, ive been developing a database for someone. As some coding has been involved, I have added some references etc as I went along.
I'll be soon handing it over to them to use - will they have to add the references for the database to run on their comp? If so, is there more user friendly way of doing it than going into the VB bit etc?
I have a database with a form. The form has quite a bit of code. This database is on a network. On some of the computers the Form will not open. When I go into Microsoft Visual Basic Tools References I am finding the following.
MISSING: Microsoft CDO 1.21 Library MISSING: Microsfot ActiveX Data Objects 2.1 Library
I have created a list box that acts as search criteria. It has 4 columns, SerialNo, Company, System, Processor. I need to reference these columns in VB with a sql statement that basically says:
Select * from SystemInfo Where SerialNo = listboxSerialNo and Company = listboxCompany and System = listboxSystem and Processor = listboxProcessor
My question is how do I refer to each of the columns in the listbox in my where statement? The listbox has the name, 'lstcriteria'. I can use just that in the reference and it will use the serialno only. How do I parse out each of the columns?
I have an Access DB, which keeps having a problem with resources. When I go in and refresh the resource, it works fine.. For a while then same problem comes up again.
I've had to refresh the references several times this week. Is this down to a bigger problem?
Love this forum! It orginally helped me build a database to manage customers back in 2002 (using Access 2002). Becuase of our slow server, I was forced to spilt the database and it's been great for years (some glitches). Recently one of the users upgraded to Access 2003. When he sync's to the master file, the master has problems. "...contains a missing or broken reference to the file 'OWC10.DLL' version 1.1" I reviewed the references and it's looking for Microsoft Outlook 11, instead of 10. When other users sync, everyone now inherits this problem. Do you have any ideas for a solution so I don't have to fix reference problems? All users will eventually be on Access 2003 so having him stop using it would only be a temporary solution. Is there a patch or upgrade to fix this problem? Any help? thanks in advance....
How can I get my form filed to return the results of a query that I have? For example I have my query set to use the month and year that are in my form in a cbo to get the desired results for Balance Growth. I want this Balance Growth result to show in my form field after the year is updated in my cbo. Right now in my Balance growth field on my form I have it linked to the query but it has the #Name? in it. Thanks for any help.
I am using vba code to create a new MS Access 2002 database and copy the current database tables, forms,etc into it. The problem I have is there are several references that I need that are not set in the new database I created. One of them is the DAO reference. My question is, is there a way that when I copy the DB the references from one will be copied to the other? or is there a way to set the preference and priority using VBA?, DAO needs to be higher up on the list inorder to work.
I use the following code to create a new db Dim cat As New ADOX.Catalog cat.Create ("provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" & sName & ";")
I then use the transferdatabase command to copy the tables, forms, etc to the new database
is there a different way to copy the current db into a new db that will include the references
I also can add a reference using the following code Set ref = References.AddFromFile(spath) AddReference = true
i am having issues with certain users re references, I get weird errors when sending emails through Outlook, is there anyway running some code for me to check a users references?the below is what i have and everything works fine, so would like to check they have these

I'm simply trying to copy a group of cells I've got selected in a separate workbook to the existing sheet.This chunk of code works when I'm testing it in 2 sheets that are in the same file
Code: Selection.Copy With Sheets("testdump").Range("B" & y).End(xlToLeft).Offset(, 1) .PasteSpecial xlPasteFormats, Transpose:=True .PasteSpecial xlPasteValues, Transpose:=True End With
I need to make it work while I'm pointing to a different file. This Errors Out
Code: Dim appXL As Excel.Application Dim wbk As Excel.Workbook Set appXL = New Excel.Application Set wbk = appXL.Workbooks.Open(GrabIt)
[code]...
The application.copy works. I don't know how to structure the 'Pastespecial'. I've used the code to reference other workbooks many times. I'm actually editing in a code that was working for a slightly different application. The sheet I want the information in is open and selected. The sheet it's coming from is open in an instantiated instance.
I am cleaning up a database that has been around for some time and I wish to be able to check for references within REPORTS/VBA Module code/ Form Designs etc. anywhere there is likely to be a reference to either an Access TABLE or QUERY.... I know there is the 'Object Dependencies' function within Access that will go some way to telling you what relies on what, but this is simply not comprehensive enough in that it doesn't go down to Form design level where further references can hide...
Countless times I have checked and subsequently deleted tables that I considered redundant... only to find later on there was some SQL Source reference to a table or query buried in the design of a form that I had overlooked....
Any way to definitively check and to ensure that all traces of a specific table or query are accounted for...?
