Then I try open Login Form again and login again ... the result come out again ...
How to solve this problem ? Everytime the Form closed the criteria cannot work ad ... It will prompt me the parameter box want me to type again the criteria ...
Hi,
What looks simple is not turning out that way!
In our organisation a country may have one or more (often just two) provinces. Some provinces have one or more countries (as many as four). As an example, Philippines South province may have that part of the philippines to look after and Pakistan as well. The country (philippines) has two provinces, one north one south. The south has part of the philippines to look after plus pakistan. Clearly, then, a many-to-many relationship?
In due course I want to be able to pull out information relating to the country (e.g. Philippines) from either the north or the south province....the country info will be the same, but the province info will be different.
But I keep getting a one-to-one resulting from the following tables, which was the way I thought I'd need to create the many-to-many relationship. I'm beginning to think it mightn't be M:M after all!
COUNTRY
countryID (text type, since no names repeat)
PROVINCE
ProvinceID (text type since we use a 3 letter code eg FIN stands for Philippines North FIS for Philippines South)
COUNTRYPROV (link table)
ProvinceID
CountryID
I assumed that to relate the first two successfully, I create a link table by taking the two primary keys above and putting them into a third table, right?
But for some inexplicable reason, I can't then get PK countryID to relate to FKcountry ID one-to-many. It comes up as one-to-one. Similar when I drag PKprovince to FK province in the link table.
I'm obviously missing something very simple but what is it?

I have a ms access application in Front End and linked tables to sql server 2008 r2 in back end.. every time I open my application the linked tables ask to me for the user and password of the sql server user of the odbc conection. I want to connect to my sql database without login every time the user open the application, I know that can be possible if I start session from vba code...
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have access 2010, I currently have a database in place and operational. What I am wondering is there a way to have a form come up whenever someone opens access and asks for a password and login name. Also I would like to have a 2 tier system. One for Admins and the other for users with limited access.
Is this even possible to accomplish?
I have some code to delete a record from a table, which does not delete the record, presumably because of referential integrity settings. That is fine of course, that's what should happen. However I want to be able to notify the user if a delete did not succeed. How can I check this? I tried this code, but it did not return an error.
Code:
strsql = "DELETE * FROM " & tblAddress & " WHERE GenAddressID = " & Me.tb_edtID
Err.Clear
CurrentDb.Execute (strsql)
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
MsgBox (Err.Description)
End If
I'm getting an error message as shown in the screen shot I've been trying found where the error is in my relationship but just can't see it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThis is a real mind bender.
I am running a2k. I am merging two databases. table1 is in the backend database. table2 is linked to the second database.
I run an append query to add table2 entries to table1. The append fails for 96 recs saying key violation. Turns out I can rerun the append if I drop the zip code field.
I then try to manually change the zip code and receive the duplicate values in index, primary key, or relationship.
I ran a compact & repair the databases, still no go. I can't edit the value of the zip code. I import the table to a new database. Still can't change the zip code. I drop MANY of the indexes. Even the index on the zip code field. Run compact&repair. still getting the index message. I even re-imported to a new db again. Still same error message.
I may start again by importing JUST these two tables to a new blank db and see if I get the same issues. I'll keep you posted...but maybe there is someone out there who has seen this error before.
fyi-if I enter a new record, the autonumber field correctly increments to the next available autonumber field. (I say this because of another thread on this matter w/ autonumber fields and bug in A2003)
Hi -
Currently I have MS Access DB which has some Oracle database table reference using database link concept. I have entered DSN Name,user id and password which it asks when I try to run some queries which will fetch data from oralce DB linked tables.If some wants to use my MS Access DB, they need to have DSN and everytime they run queries related to Oracle database table reference, it will ask for DSN,user id and password. For this I need to share the user id and password credentials to everyone who wishes to use my MS Access DB which I don't want to. Is there a way to avoid the login window whenever some one wants to use my MS Access DB without asking for oracle user id and password credentials everytime? My ultimate aim would be encrypt password for others.
Thanks,
Ashok

I am still learning Access and coding so I am not sure exactly what everything means yet.
At the moment i have a straight forward login form, were if the username matches to the password the user can log in otherwise they cannot. However i need a login based on access rights. For example if a user A log in he is the administrator and has access to all the tables, to be able to synchronise, add/delete records. However if it is user B they can only read thad inforation form the datasbase.
one way i was thinking was about trying to enable and disable certain command buttons on a form. If the users is not admin to disable the add button etc.
Has anybody got any other ideas, or do u think this is suitable, or any examples of login screens
Hi all
I downloaded the attached free login script from somewhere. I configured it so that it points to my website index page after validation.
I've added another field in the database called delegation. An admin delegation would point to a separate index page with admin options allowing the user extra privelleges. I'd like to add a few more lines of code to the check_user.asp page to allow this. Any ideas. I appreciate any help.

I have finished the database application, and now want to make a user login for specific users to run the application (but not to change the internal desgin or data).
How can it be done ?
Do I need to split the database first before doing that ? :confused:
How do you set up a login screen (not the standard Database Password) within MS Access 2000
(So that a username and password must be input before opening the database)
Hi.. Been trying to work this out for a little while now. I run an IT workshop for adults with learning issues and although my other office skils are pretty good, my Access skills are a little lacking.
My clients login and out on paper at the moment but I would like to change this to a database type system. The entries would only be name and an automatic one to record actual time of login.
Can anybody help me with the automatic entries?
Many thanks

Hello,
I use Environ("Username") all the time, most frequently for logging who has done something to a record, and have once used it to log people into the database (very basic, much the same as logging who did what to records).
But I was wondering, how feasible is it as a security measure?
I often use it on the main menu of my DBs to give me a different menu (with more advanced options on) than other users.
Is it really that safe to use it as a means to allow people in, or stopping them? I know that obviously you have to stop them getting in other ways (holding shift for example), but assuming all of that is done, in theory, they should only be able to get in if they can log in as an authorised user?
Don't know why it is just struck me - just curious I suppose!

Dear all,
I have an application includes one table "info" and two forms "frmlogin" & "frmwelcome".
The table "info" contains many columns, two of them are [UserName] and [PassWord]. This table is filled with three records. "frmlogin" form contains two text boxes and one button. I want the user to enter user name and the password in those two text boxes, and when clicking the button, I want the application if that user is registered or no. If yes, he/she will be moved to the "frmwelcom", that display "Welcome [UserName]".
I did it, but I don't know where my error is.
See the attached file.
Sorry for bothering you.
Thanks & Regards

Hi all,
I would like to create a simple login system for my db whereby users differentiated by approvers (people who approve PO forms) or preparers (people who prepare PO forms). The problem is, I do not know where to carry on after creating the form for login. How do I go about doing it? I have seen some samples but I do not really understand the code. Hope that someone will be able to guide me along. Thanks a million.

How can I create a login form in Access to track user's input and the date and time of the input. I need to be able to see who entered specific information into the main form. On my main form I have a button to open a query and send that information to a text file but I would like the information to sent to the text file tab delimited. So far I have only been able to get it to go into the text file with comas to separate the columns. Any ideas on how to do these two things?
Thanks
Hi there
Im having a few problems trying to get my login form to function properly. I have created a username and login form.
- created 2 unbound text boxes with user and password
- created a button that performs the function of calling the username and password based on whether the user enters the password correctly.
When you input the password it continue to prompt you to enter the password when it is the correct password.
Does anyone know how to get around this?
Thanks

Hi,
Before we start - I'm a web dev / sql server grunt. I don't have much experience with access.
We've just performed our PC roll-over and we've moved from Access 2000 to 2003. We have alot of DB's around and some of which have *.mdw's. After the rollover was complete I've gone to the required computers and from ther 'Joined' the work group through the work group administration tool. This allowes the users into the required DB via the correct login.
HOWEVER.... drum roll.
No other databases which don't have any workgroups or logins are displaying the same login from my first DB. Entering the log and pass from the first database will then let you into this unrelated DB.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this problem?
Thanks for reading
