Problem Opening Database With Access Runtime
Oct 9, 2007
Hi
We have an access database which 3 of us use at work.
All 3 pcs use access runtime to modify the database records
The problem we have is that when you try to open the database with pc3 it just does nothing if pc1 or pc2 has the database open. So we both have to close it and let pc3 open it, then we have to reopen it.
Has anyone else encountered this problem?
The pcs are all configured the same way, are the same model with the same Windows XP Pro image on them.
Help please?
Thanks
Paul

I have a listbox that another subform on the same main pulls results from the column(0) id from (using text box that pulls the list record selected)
When you click once it (listbox) shows the records in the second form for the corresponding. When you double click it opens the record of the selected (listbox)
This works great in Runtime 2010 for all my 32bit staff and vista
however in 64bit win 8 with any runtime including 2013 64bit the database listbox works for a while, then slows and then stops opening the record on double click and when I say slows it slows to a crawl speed like it is looking up the query in the subform instead of just opening the record with the double click.
I was thinking mouse double click settings but they seem fine and as I said before it works fine for a while.

Hello everybody,
I have a question.
I have a button on a form.
When I press that button, another database should be opened.
I tried this:
Dim dbMyDB As Database
Dim rsMyRS As Recordset
Set dbMyDB = OpenDatabase("C:DocumentenJohnnyStyle_be.mdb")
Set rsMyRS = dbMyDB.OpenRecordset("nslArtikel", dbOpenDynaset)
But it didn't work.
Thank you very much in advance...

Hi There
Im probably being thick, but...
ive just upgraded our sales database from access 97 to access 2002. everything is fine apart from when i try to open the database twice on one machine - it wont allow this. In access 97 this was allowed and i normally had atleast 3 databases (all the same database) open at once.
is there an easy answer??
many Thanks

I recently found a need to pass a message on to everyone that opened a certain access database. So in I thought the easiest way of doing this would be to use the startup page & macro on the Northwinds Sample Database that comes with access.
However, I kept getting an error because the ok button was pointing the main switchboard which doesnt exist on my database, so I tried deleting the following to see if it would sort the problem: -
' Closes Startup form.
' Used in OnClick property of OK command button on Startup form.
DoCmd.Close
DoCmd.OpenForm ("Main Switchboard")
Now I think I've made things a whole lot worse. When I opne the database I get that first startup form and of course the button doesnt work and everything else is disabled.
I could really do with some help on this one.
Thanks,
Marc.
P.s. Cracking forum guys, if it weren't for places like this people like me would be in a whole world of ****!!

Is there a way to open an Access Database from a batch file or VBS file wait for 20 seconds and then close the Access file. Preferably I would like the Access file to run in either invisible or minimized mode. I would like the Access Database to close again after the 20 seconds has elapsed.
(The reason for this is so that the Database can refresh itself from Sharepoint on another users machine so that the excel reports on his machine are up to date).

I am trying to open up an Access database as read-only from another running Access database. The code I have to open the database currently reads:
"""C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE11MSACCESS.EXE"" ""f:commonpattyTraining Database.mdb", 1)
How do I change to read only?

When I launch my Database file, it would normally run some scripts (I don't actually know what they do, the file is not used by me, only colleagues).
Instead i get this error:
The expression On Load you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Object or class does not support the set of events.
When I click 'OK' another error appears:
The expression On Timer you entered as the even property setting produced the following error: Object or class does not support the set of events.
Once i click 'OK' on this error, another error sometimes occurs:
The expression MouseMove you entered as the even property setting produced the following error: Object or class does not support the set of events.
But strangely enough the third error doesn't occur every time i move the mouse.
After these errors have been closed, all i have is my 'form' with a loading bar. I cant access the actual database. Nor can i get into the Visual Basic to try and find the cause. This is happening to multiple clients of mine, and me personally.
Running Windows 7, Server 2008 (64bit), Windows 7 (64bit)
Running Access 2007 and Access 2010.
I have tried changing permissions on the file, this doesn't work.

Using Access 2007, can I return a value for CurrentProject.FileFormat WITHOUT opening the database?
I'm looking for a way to determine the file version of a given Access database without actually "opening" the database in Access (I don't want it to ever be visible at all or in any way).
So to open a database in Access 2007 "without opening it," I'm using:
Code:
Dim db As DAO.Database
Set db = DBEngine.Workspaces(0).OpenDatabase("C:Path-ToFile.accdb")
From here, there are at least two different "version" indicators that can be used, as in this example:
Code:
Debug.Print db.Properties("Version").Value
Debug.Print db.Properties("AccessVersion").Value
Now, if you run this code on an Access 2002/2003 .MDB file, you will get:
Code:
4.0
09.50
If you run this code on an Access 2007 .ACCDB file, you get:
Code:
12.0
09.50
Note two important factors:The db.Properties("Version") seems to be returning the JET version from what I can see in research. This is NOT what I'm after.
The db.Properties("AccessVersion") returns THE SAME VALUE for an '07 ACCDB as it does for an '02-'03 MDB, since Microsoft never updated it, apparently.
Now.... the one way that I have found that ACCURATELY describes the version of a given access database file is to use:
Code:
Debug.Print CurrentProject.FileFormat
...as this will always return, for example, 2.0 for an Access 2.0 .MDB file; 10 for an Access 2002/03 .MDB file; and 12 for and Access 2007 .ACCDB file (and there are others; these are AcFileFormat bitmask constants as described in Access support).
BUT, this CurrentProject object doesn't seem to be available (so far as I can see) when using the "open without opening" method described above.
SO, is there any way to return the FileFormat value without opening the database visibly? (Merely basing it in the extension isn't right either.... that would be easy but not accurate as several formats use MDB.

I'm wondering if there is a way to open an access database (ive started with a microsoft template for an inventory management database) outside of the access environment. I'd like the program to run more like a .exe file rather than a database, but still having the links to and the functionality of the microsoft database
is this possible?

Hi
Apologies if this has been covered before - I promised I have searched and not found an answer.
I have just purchased the Access Development Extensions so that I can deploy my database's to users without Access. So far, I've managed to create an intallation file fine. Hwever, the database is to be used by multiple people and needs to be split.
If I create the runtime application of the frontend, all of the tables point to the backend on "my computer". I then need to give it to my client who will store the backend on thier server. How do I then make the front end (all locked becuase it's runtime) point to the backend in the new location?
I hope that makes sense.
I'm supposed to be installing this tomorrow, so any help would be much appreciated
Thanks

Hello all!!
That error keeps on appearing in my application and no way to sort it out...
The error is the following:
Runtime error 3734: the database has been placed in state by user 'Admin' on machine ... that prevents it from being opened or blocked.
I tried to sort it out by doing:
set db= opendatabase(database,0)
but still appearing the message.
could i solve it by checking if there is an actual opened connection before starting a new one? and in case that that there is an opened one, close that.
Don't know what else to try!!
Thanks in advance

I haven't done any testing yet on splitting the database I'm working on but a question came up today about networking.
This database is going to be used by a few equipment operators to record machine readings on the manufacturing floor. There is a wireless network and we are in the process of confirming that the wireless signal reaches all the areas. The users will be using ruggedized windows tablets to enter the data.
The BE of the split database will reside on a network drive to ensure everyone that needs it will have access and it will be regularly backed up. etc.
Since there is alot of heavy machinery, there may be some spots where connectivity will be weak or non-existent while they are entering their readings.
The question is how will the runtime FE handle it if connectivity is temporarily interrupted?

I'm in the middle of developing a database for our engineering group to track projects. I've got a question:
I'm using Runtime because none of our group has MS Access loaded on their system. So, I'm providing a link to the participant to download the free Runtime Software and providing a Shortcut to the database in the shared area.
My question is, when I split the database and provide the users with the front end do they still require runtime? Do I still provide them the link to download the free Runtime software and if so, do I save both the back and front end with the .accdr extension? I'm assuming that since they will have the front end on their systems individually they will no longer require the Shortcut.
The way the system is currently, it seems that only one user is permitted in the database at a time as it is locked out. I would like for more than one user to be able to access the database at a time. I've set the Default Open Mode to Shared so I'm not sure why it gets locked down when a user is accessing it.

Hi
I'm having trouble with my database (Access 2000). I'm trying to export a file into a text file by clicking on a button. Below is the code. Where the code is in bold that is when the runtime error happens.
If i export the code manually by right click on the query > Export then this works, but for some reason by clicking on the button will not work.
Private Sub cmdExport_Click()
Dim sExportFilePath As String
sExportFilePath = DLookup("[DateExportLocation]", "tblSettings", "[ID]=1") ' Path if file to be exported
DoCmd.OpenQuery "qryUpDateTransmissionDateAndTime", acViewNormal, acEdit ' Update dates time
DoCmd.TransferText acExportDelim, "ExportFile", "qryExportFile", sExportFilePath
End Sub
I appreciate your help

I create a front end and back end that resides on the lan. Front has everything besides the table which resides on the back end. Front ends table are linked to the backend. I have two computer that i am testing it on. Both of them runs Access 2003 runtime and windows has been update to the latest version, both xp machine aswell.Both has user right to read and write to that directory on the lan. Ldr exist when either of them uses access file. The strange thing is when i run a command to copy some data from one table to another one. one of the machine give me the following error "3027 Cannot Update. database or object is read only". While on the other machine it runs flawless. Another weird thing is if i modified some values in table by using forms it works great on both so i am a bit clueless where the problems is. its seems my problem is copying from one table to another. i dont have problem modyfing one table. Here is the code i use to that halt my ms access database.
Dim dbs As Database, rsProposal As Recordset, TES As String, stdocname As String, stLinkCriteria As String
TES = Me![TESID]
If TES = DLookup("TESID", "Proposals", "TESID =" & "'" & TES & "'") Then
MsgBox "Proposal Already Exists for TES ID: " & vbCrLf & _
" " & TES, vbOKOnly, "Proposal Already Exists"
GoTo Image264_Click_Exit
Else
If MsgBox("Do You Really Want to Create" & vbCrLf & "a New Proposal for TES ID " & vbCrLf & " " & TES & " ?", 289, "Create New Proposal?") = vbOK Then
Set dbs = CurrentDb
Set rsProposal = dbs.OpenRecordset("Proposals")
With rsProposal
.AddNew
![Long_Desc] = Me![Description]
![Short_Desc] = Me![Opportunity]
![Dest_Site] = Me![Install Site]
![TESID] = Me![TESID]
![End_User] = Me![Contractor/Purchaser Name]
![Date_Due] = Me![Proposal Due Date]
![Date_Completed] = Me![Close Date]
![Status] = Me![Status]
.Update
.Close
Set rsProposal = Nothing
dbs.Close
Set dbs = Nothing
End With
stLinkCriteria = "[TESID] = " & "'" & TES & "'"
stdocname = "Form Prop - Detail"
DoCmd.OpenForm stdocname, , , stLinkCriteria
DoCmd.Close acForm, "Form TES - Detail"
End If
End If

We have two computers in a work group. On computer1 I have the back-end and front-end database files in the shared folder and 2 users out of 4 can access the database no problem. When the other users try to access the database they receive the error message "Microsoft Access can't Find The Database 'C:Documents and SettingsAll UsersDocumentsdb.mdb' Make sure you entered the correct path and filename" On computer2 I have the front-end database files in the shared folder and pointing to the same back-end database on computer1. Again 2 users out of 4 can access the database no problem. When the other users try to access the database they receive the same error described above.
I expect that this is some sort of windows permissions issue?
There are some clues to this fact ..
The two users that can't access the database are limited accounts, but I tried making them administrators and this had no affect.
Their shared documents folder does not have a hand underneath it?
Any help on this appreciated as it's really starting to annoy me now!
Thanks.

Hi,
I saw many posts in here. Most of the posts are said that we need to use Access Developer Edition to distribute the Access Runtime for our clients.
Can we just buy/use the Access RunTime Modules and unlimited licenses without using Access Developer Edition?

Hi All,
Just a quick one.
I have access 2003 installed, which I use to make systems ( doh )
Anyway, I have just installed Access Runtime on the same machine so that I can test my databases on the runtime version to make sure that all works ok.
However, I have installed several times now, but I can not find runtime anywhere to run it...
Can you not use runtime if you have full blown access installed ?
Or am i just having a blonde moment ???
Thanks in advance.
Max
