Does anyone know what's the best way to send a mdb file via the internet. I've tried sending is as an email attachment and putting is on a webserver for downloading. Both wayes only gives errors.
in Access i have made a report with data and now my goal is that if i click on a button the data will be exported to a existing Excel file under the other existing data so in row A6. Is this possible true a VBA code?
I have a database which is being used for maintaining documents status. Its working fine in stand alone PC. I want to share it on internet. But problem is, I can upload the complete file, then download and use. Its not updated. So is there any way to upload this db onto internet and work there only the way we do in single PC?
Hey, I am currently designing a database for my group of friends. Things such as ,Name, Age, Musical Instrument, Band (of which they play in), Favourite Band etc. would be in there indefinately.Its not a complex Db and so I was hoping to put it on my website but dont know how i would do this...I would like it to be on the internet as if you were just looking at it on your own computer and webmaster could edit any fields after it is finished. Is there anyway of doing this? If yes is there any way of doing this without the viewer having to download the Db?
I have created an access database for work. Due to the size(70MB) of the database our internal network appears to have difficulty executing any queries or has long delays. I dont think the size is the issue, however I am now looking for ways to place on "internet" page but only want users to run the reports off control buttons /macros of the forms view not see the tables or query design. Any suggestions of best to approach this, Also any input about "project" or "ADP" woud, be very useful, thanks Andy
I have an Access 2002 database (about 120mb) which was replicated using Replication Manager (version unknown). It is set up to use Internet Synchronization. We use it on state government LAN and WAN as well as the Internet. It works well in most cases, but on a few computers we get the error "Http address not found" when synchronization is attempted. The address is indeed visible to those computers. We have determined that reloading Windows (XP Pro) will usually solve the problem at least for a while but when GIS mapping software is installed it reappears. More worrisome is that some brand new laptops with factory-installed Windows are showing the same problem, which means it could get worse as we upgrade equipment.
I was wondering if it is possible to connect a MS Access front end to a MS SQL server on the internet in a secure way through ODBC or some other means. Anyone have any ideas?
Is it possible to transfer data over the internet if the BE is in one country and the FE is in another? If so, could someone explain how I would go about doing this? I'm in the Military and when we deploy it's normally to a far off country.
Hi all, I have done a multi user database for a private company (and thanks to all those that helped me out) but now I need to do another database to put onto the Internet so the general public can view it and order the products. Obviously some of the database needs to be private (so I can update records) but some needs to be viewed over the Internet. I would like the general public to be able to view the products over a web page, not download a program to view the database.
I have made the database already so I can pull up a web page (from within access) and order the products - all I need to know is how to do this over the Internet?
I don't expect anyone to hold my hand through this, I just ask if anyone has a link to a walkthrough so I can do this?
Regards, James
PS Have another question - I have 17, 500 records and I wish to add a new Field, how can I change the values of the Field without going thorugh them one by one? e.g If the Record has 'Rarity = U' then I want the 'price' (which is the new field) to equal 1.
I am trying to create a database such that everyone in my company will be able to access it, but without having to install access and put a link to the DB on every computer. Ideally, I would like to have some sort of web applet that uses the DB on a central server and allows users to add and modify entries without having to know anything about Access.
Iīm thinking of starting to use office XP for a small system I have. My question is:
Is office XP more compatible with internet explorer in terms of VBA automating? I have had to work around internet explorer quite a lot in office 97, and I havenīt been able to do what I want.
There is an online form which we need to fill out for each of our inventory units. This form has several dozen fields though. We have to fill each one out for every unit that we ship (which is about a hundred a day).
But the good news is, about 25 of these 30 fields are always filled in with the same value (our name, address, city, state, zip, insurance, insurance no, carrier, carrier no, etc).
What we want is a way to fill out these fields for us automatically, and all we have to do is type in the remaining 5 fields ourselves.
My temporary solution was to create a form with 5 fields and a Submit button. Then using AppActivate "Inventory Adjustment - Microsoft Internet Explorer", we would use the SendKeys function and virtually "type" in the 5 variable values and the 25 other "hardcoded" values, using the Tab key to move in between fields.
However, we have encountered some issues using SendKeys. For one, the cursor doesn't always start in the correct place, and the fields become horribly offset and skewed. Also we notice that sometimes the cursor moves "too fast" apparently and skips pasting some of the values (an issue we tried to resolve by using "wait" commands, but it didn't help consistently enough).
Is there a better way to use Visual Basic to fill in fields in an Internet Explorer window? :(
I was wondering if someone could try and connect my database to the web. I would like to view the names of the CDs in her collection over the Internet.
I would like to use a local Access front end to edit tables linked to a SQL Server database located on my Internet host provider's server. I haven't been able to find any information about how to do this or whether it is even possible.
If I need to set up an ODBC source, how can I do that for a non-local (Internet) SQL Server database?
I created a button that opens a link to a URL and copies information from a record to the clipboard to paste on this webpage. The users are not using it correctly (they need to close the page each time they need to do the next record).
what i want to do is to close ALL IExplore windows via access if there are any open then open the URL again. Sounds pointless but we have to close it because of security.
We have a webpage hyperlink to a network drive that contains a database...but this particular database doesnt open. It shows Access running under process in Task Managerk, but the application doesnt show up as running. Our other databases open fine...for some reason this particular one refuses. I get a message when opening the link that the publisher could not be verified. It almost seems like a security issue with Internet Explorer. I've lowered all security to the lowest levels and enabled everything. These links are only accessed from within the company. Any ideas would be great. Thanks, Jeff
Page loads, transaction is submitted, everything works fine 99% of the time, however, on occasion, the page loads a mini error page where you have to click a blue link for it to continue. Here is where I am stuck, if the blue link appears, I get an error that the object is not set, if I move my cursor up one row (For Each htmlInput) it will continue without error. How do I get IE to give the error message a chance to load before checking it out?
Code:
'click the SUBMIT button For Each htmlInput In HTMLDoc.getElementsByTagName("Input") If htmlInput.Value = "Submit" Then
