Different Approach - FAQ Search Engine

Oct 15, 2004

hi..

I have tried to do a search on this but i cant seem to find something similiar. And I did a post of what i wanted to do here:
Click Me (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=74845)

This is my table structure:
http://www.geocities.com/gerald20000/Alpha/table.jpg

** I have keep this structure the simple. In actual of what i want to do, its more section under the 3rd lvl. as in more section under tblNAMe and tblRELATIONSHIP.

-> My structure:

tblQNA
CategoryNAME
CategoryMOOD
CategoryRELATIONSHIP

tblNAME
CategoryMALE
CategoryFEMALE

tblRELATIONSHIP
CategoryNEAR
CategoryFAR

tblMALE (Question related to Name - Male will be here)
MaleQuestion
MaleAnswer

tblFEMALE (Question related to Name - Female will be here)
FemaleQuestion
FemaleAnswer

tblMOOD (Question related to Mood will be here)
MoodQuestion
MoodAnswer

tblNEAR (Question related to Near Relation will be here)
NearQuestion
NearAnswer

tblFAR (Question related to Far Relation will be here)
FarQuestion
FarAnswer

So what am i trying to do? People would put in a question and an answer into a box. After that, the person can choose which category does the inputed question belongs to which category(male? female? .. ).This is actually a FAQ search engine.

So ppl will have an option to search for keywords and match questions. There should also be an option weather it should search from tblQNA or tblName or tblGOOD. So it has different level of searching. This is why it has such tree. So after searching, it will display the possible matched question (display question only). then the user can click which question to view the answer (together with the question).

Hope to get some advise. Is this how the best way to implement? OR is there a better method? pls advise and thanks in advance. ill be trying to do the access now. ill post as i goes along.

cheers

Query - Search Engine

Jul 17, 2006

I would like to create a query where I can search my selected fields on a particular field. However I do not want to do this in the standard way. I would like the query to appear in a 'search engine' type format (like a form but with a search). Is this possible????

Search Engine In A Form

Jul 19, 2006

Hello everyone,

Here I am again all lost in the beyond side of Access. So, I would like to create a "search engine" , through a macros if possible, so that the users can find the one thing among the hundreds of specs available to them in this form/subforms assebly.

My form has two subforms inbuilt in it, hence it can be really time consuming to find the one piece of information they are looking for. And I was hoping that there was a way they could just type for example "rated voltage" in the search box and they would jump to the one textbox titled "rated voltage". Just like most of us do when reading a large document online, we just use "find" to get what we are looking for.

Thanks,

Creating A Search Engine Help

May 27, 2005

Hello,

I have a form with about 30 fields on it, all connected to a table with file information. I want to create a search form using all 30 fields, so that if a user inputs information in any one of these fields and clicks search, it will find records based on the combination of what he/she inputted in the fields. For all the fields that he/she leaves blank, the search engine will ignore in its search.

I have already created a query that does this somewhat. For each field, I have used this as the criteria:

IIf(IsNull([Forms]![File Search Form]![SearchFieldName])=False,[Forms]![File Search Form]![SearchFieldName],[FieldName])

I have put this in the criteria and they are all linked by an And statement. It works fine, except that the program does not seem to match Null fields together. So, if the user leaves a field blank, the search won't ignore that field, it will only show records with some piece of data in that field. All records that are Null in that field are cut out.

So, I guess my question is: how would I make the program be unbiased towards fields that are Null and let it include records that have null in the field? Am I going about this the wrong way?

Any way, hope it was clear. Thanks in advance. =)

Help? Microsoft Jet Engine Error

Jun 20, 2005

Okay - well, I have figured out how to edit the schema file but now I am getting a different error message when I try to do the export:

The Microsoft Jet Database engine could not find the object "Form888.txt". Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and path name correctly.

I believe that it is spelled correctly and I have changed the path a few times to see if it was that and it's still not working. Can anyone help me with this please?

Microsoft Jet Database Engine ERROR

Jul 7, 2006

Hi,

We have been having intermittent problems with an MS Access 2000 front-end application linked to a SQL Server 2000 database recently.

From the switchboard a user was sometimes getting "There was an error executing the previous command". When she shut the application and opened it again it works fine for a little while - then the error occurs again.

I removed the generic error handling code from the code for the Switchboard form and I got the error message: "The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot find the input table or query 'Switchboard items'. Make sure it exists and that its name is spelled correctly."

I have been searching this forum and the web to find out what the cause of this error message is but I cannot find anything to go on or to try that might help get rid of this problem.

Does anyone know why this error occurs? Any idea how to stop it of happening?

Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

MS Jet Database Engine Stopped Process ...

Aug 14, 2007

Dear All,
I prepared times ago a database that contains important data that will be frequently updated.
Since yesterday I cannot load the database anymore. I get a pop-up with following statement:
Quote
The Microsoft Jet database engine stopped the process because you and another user are attempting to change the same data at the same time
Unquote
If I click ok, the loading process will be aborted.
I'm the only user of this database, neither the database nor the directory containing the database is sharable. It is located on the harddisk of my computer which nobody from outside can access.
What can I do to recover the access to my database?

I use MS Office 2003 but tried to open the database also on MS Office 2000 with the same result.
The Help function of MS-Access does not really help.
Who knows how to solve the probleem????
With regards
Siegfried

Disable Microsoft Jet Engine Message Box

Jun 3, 2006

Hi,

I have a form that contains 3 required fields i.e. linked to other tables using an ID. If the user tries to close the form without entering data in the required fields I get the message:
"The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot find a record in the table 'table name' with key matching field(s) 'myID'

I have created an If Then Else statement to check if the required fields have been filled in, and if not display a MsgBox. the problem is that Jet database engine message pops up.

I've tried using DoCmd.SetWarnings False on the form but this doesn't stop them.

Any ideas?
Cheers

i get this error the time i enter info into a registration page from where i am getting all the customers info

Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80004005'

The changes you requested to the table were not successful because they would create duplicate values in the index, primary key, or relationship. Change the data in the field or fields that contain duplicate data, remove the index, or redefine the index to permit duplicate entries and try again.
in line 74
and my corresponding query is

Set Commrs2 = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Command")
Commrs2.ActiveConnection=strconnect
line 74: Commrs2.CommandText = "INSERT into registration(username,fname, mname, lname, sex, address, city, state, country, pincode, phone, mobile ,email)VALUES('"&logid&"','"&fname&"','"&mname&"','"&lname&"','"&sex&"','"&add&"','"&city&"','"&state&"','"&country&"','"&pin&"','"&phone&"','"&mobile&"','"&email&"' )"

Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80004005)

Apr 5, 2005

I am trying to access a Microsoft Access database located on a server on my network from my web server. The folder containing the access database has been shared on the network with everyone having full access. I created a virtual directory on my web server pointing to the share on the other server and when I try to connect it says:

Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80004005)
The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file '\server1databasejt_test.mdb'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data.

The code to open look like:

Set objConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
dbPath = server.MapPath("/Database/jt_test.mdb")
connectString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & dbPath & ";"

I have tried everything I can think of to get this to work and nothing works. Any ideas?

Error Message: Microsoft Jet Database Engine

Oct 19, 2006

I am trying to make changes to a particular field in Access but whenever I try to do this, I get an error messsage saying that Microsoft Jet Database Engine Stopped the process because you and another user are attempting to change the same data at the same time.

There is no once accessing the database at this time and this error message appears only when I go to that specific field. I've also tried to delete the whole row but it wouldn't allow me to do that saying the program has been locked.

Any solutions? Thanks,

Microsoft JET Database Engine Error '80004005'

Oct 7, 2004

I have a recursive script that seems to timeout after a few dozen requests, the database is returning the typical "Microsoft JET Database Engineerror '80004005' " error ("Unspecified error").

The code is pretty straight forward, it is a function that calls itself to generate a tree structure for a site map. It works great the first few dozen times but seems to 'time out' and return the above error after a few dozen records (building the tree).

The code looks like this :

Function BuildContent(id,depth)
' open the children
Set GetKids = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
GetKids.ActiveConnection = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=d:usersXXXXhtmldb1.mdb"
GetKids.Source = "SELECT ID,Name FROM category WHERE parent = " & id & ""
GetKids.CursorType = 0
GetKids.CursorLocation = 2
GetKids.LockType = 1
GetKids.Open()
GetKids_numRows = 0


if GetKids.EOF <> true then
MyLinks = countlinks(id)
MyCats = countkids(id)
response.write "Number of Listings (" & GetKids("Name") & "): " & Mylinks & "<br>"

maxdepth = 1
BuildContent = "<ol>"
while GetKids.EOF <> true

KidsCats = countkids(id)
KidsLinks = countlinks(GetKids("id"))

if MyCats > 0 then show = true
if KidsCats > 0 then show = true
if depth < maxdepth then show = false

if KidsLinks > 0 then show = true
if MyLinks > 0 then show = true

if show = true then
BuildContent = BuildContent & "<li><a href='" & GetKids("id") & "_e.asp'>" & GetKids("name") & "</a></li>"
else
BuildContent = BuildContent & "<li>" & GetKids("name") & "</li>"
end if
if depth < maxdepth then BuildContent = BuildContent & BuildContent(GetKids("id"),depth+1)
GetKids.MoveNext
wend
GetKids.Close()
Set GetKids = Nothing

BuildContent = BuildContent & "<br></ol>"
end if
End Function

there are a couple of support fuctions :

Function countkids(id)
Set GetListing = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
GetListing.ActiveConnection = MM_Connection_STRING
GetListing.Source = "select * FROM category WHERE parent = " & id & ""
GetListing.CursorType = 1
GetListing.CursorLocation = 2
GetListing.LockType = 1
GetListing.Open()
GetListing_numRows = 0
countkids = GetListing.RecordCount
GetListing.Close
Set GetListing = Nothing
End Function

Function countlinks(id)
Set GetListing = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
GetListing.ActiveConnection = MM_Connection_STRING
GetListing.Source = "select * FROM records WHERE parent = " & id & ""
GetListing.CursorType = 1
GetListing.CursorLocation = 2
GetListing.LockType = 1
GetListing.Open()
GetListing_numRows = 0
countlinks = GetListing.RecordCount
GetListing.Close
Set GetListing = Nothing
End Function



I think the DB is being called too often, too quickly but I have no way of slowing the script down. If that's the case, is there a way to slow the code execution to give the DB time to catch up?

Otherwise, is it a driver problem (Microsoft JET Database Engineerror '80004005' ) and would switching to a OBDC connection give me better results or should I be using a different db driver?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Forms :: Database Engine Could Not Lock Table

Jun 23, 2015

I am having a problem running a make table query which is based on the same tables that I am using in a sub form.

Basically, the user selects certain records in the subform (which is in datasheet mode) using a check box, then once selected he hits a command button where there is some code that will run the make table query, which I use to filter other tables in a related reports.

However I keep getting this silly "database engine could not lock table" message relating to the sub form name. The subform is not linked to any records in the main form as the main form is unbound.

The solutions offered by putting DoEvents or Me.refresh/Me.requrey in the code do not work.

Microsoft Jet Database Engine Stopped The Process Error

May 21, 2007

Hi All

My department has customer database using microsoft access with the main table being a linked table to SQL-Server database down in IT department.

I've only been recently made aware that the staffs have been having problem when trying to change or delete old data. It keeps on bringing up the error message

The Microsoft Jet database engine stopped the process because you and another user are attempting to change the same data at the same time.
which is hardly the case since each staff are assigned only one customer to work on.

While it is technically possible to have many people working on the same data, business wise, it is impossible to do that.

I still come up with the same error even when the IT department confirms that no one accessing the SQL-Server table and I was the only one logged in.

This leads me to believe that there is something in the code that somehow preventing the table being edited or deleted. The problem is the database is so huge and was designed by my predecessor so I do not have any knowledge of the complete working of the codes behind it.

If it's the problem with the code, can anyone tell me what sort of codes caused this? If not, can anyone tell me what happened?

Any help would be most appreciated.


Thank you

The Microsoft Jet Database Engine Stopped The Process Because You And Another User Ar

Mar 18, 2008

Hello!

I am working on a database that uses a table from another access database. I am not sure but I think the problem started after this line was added to the code:

Set dbk = OpenDatabase("D:My documentsJapiOritaColorBazeKnjigovodstvo1.1.md b")

The database still works fine on one machine. When I copy it to another machine, that is when I receive 3197 error.

When I copy database to another machine without the code that contains the line from above, and copy the same code in the same form after opening copied databse, the problem is solved.

Does anybody know why is this happening? How can I fix this?

Thank!

Database Engine Could Not Lock Table .... Etc Error Message

Feb 14, 2006

I have a live db running on a VPN network (FE/BE both centrally located on a main server , users 'view' their own personal front end through the VPN tunnel) ) and have recently provided a new updateto the FE. Until this time , most users were problem free but one persisted in getting the above error message. Now the new update is in place , they all get it, and this is when no one else is using the db and a single user logs in and tries to use the system. I guess it must be an internal fault ( ie my fault ) but then why does it work for some and not for others?. It also works no problem on my system at home. The user runs Access 2000 and the db was developed in 2003 ( default file format 2000)
Any help most appreciated
Thanks in advance.

The Microsoft Jet Database Engine Stopped The Process Because You And Another User Ar

Dec 4, 2006

I have created a db that is used strictly for data entry. I have one main form with about 6 embedded subforms and the db is broken down into a FE/BE. I currently only have one user in the database and sometimes when the user tabs into one of the subforms the will receive error 3197. I have searched the forum and have read that this error may be caused by a OLE or memo field but I have neither. There is no pattern to the error it seems to happen sporadically. Any ideas?

Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80004005) - Unspecified Error

Sep 28, 2004

Hi all,
I got Win2000 and I just developed an intranet solution installed on my web server (IIS). The application worked nicely and there were not any problems. Few days ago I re - installed my OS and I installed the IIS and my intranet solution but there is an error and the application doens't operate correctly with the Access database.
When it tries to retrieve data from the database the following error appears:

Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80004005)
Unspecified error

The line of the code which is indicated by the error is the following:

objConn.Open("Provider = Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source = "&loc&"; Jet OLEDBatabase Password="&passwd)

I updated Microsoft JET and MDAC. I really don't know how to resolve this problem.
Any help will be appreciated,

List Box Causing Database Engine Could Not Lock Table

Jul 12, 2014

I've added a list box to my form that displays a table. This table is completely independent and gains it's data from an Append query. There is also a Delete query, which clears the table for a new set of data, and an Alter query which resets an AutoNumber column in the table (so that new data sets always start numbered at 1).

Here's the problem: Since I've added the listbox and set the RowSource to the table, whenever I run the Append query I receive the error: "The database engine could not lock table 'tblLineSheet' because it is already in use by another person or process." I've made sure to close the table, but to no avail I still get this error. Without the List Box I don't encounter this error.
