Any ideas why a particular query would run very slow in access 2007 when it runs fine on 2003. This is running on a terminal services environment and the database connects to a ms sql 2000 server. I will try it outside terminal services when I can but I can't understand the problem. Im not talking about slightly slower its something like a factor of 100 or 200 slower (I had to limit the dataset just to get a return within a day).
The database was an access 2000 mdb for compatibility across computers but I have tried converting it with out any luck.
I have an access database that runs fine on our current systems (mix of office 2002, 2003 and windows xp/2002.
However we have one new machine here running windows vista and office 2007 and the database runs super super slow. just about every operation takes 10 times plus to run!
I have looked at the sticky subject at the top of this forum and it's not the problem linked to here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/935366/ as this uis the only vista machine we have accessing the database. the same problem also occurs when running locally on my home machine (again vista and office 2007). From memory if is fine when running it through office 2003 on vista.
Anyone else have similar problems and find a solution?
I'm having trouble with access. Basically it has been very slow to load (over 30 seconds when not opening a database) and when opening a database it just crashes.
Has anyone any idea what could cause this as it worked fine before ?
On trying to import an Excel 2007 file into Access 2007 I get the following:
1) Choose "External Data," Import, Exce 2) Select small file in MS Excel 2007 format. 3) Click on Import the source data into a new table ... 4) Choose OK
Immediately get "Microsoft Office Access has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution to the problem..." This message never resolves, so I have to click 'Cancel'.
Then I get "Microsoft Office Access is trying to recover your information..." I have to click "Cancel" here as well and then kill MS Access in Task Manager.
Event Viewer gives following message, which is of no help: "ID: 2, Application Name: Microsoft Office Access, Application Version: 12.0.6211.1000, Microsoft Office Version: 12.0.6215.1000. This session lasted 710 seconds with 120 seconds of active time. This session ended with a crash."
Trying to import a small Excel 2003 file leads the same result. The same happens with a CSV file.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Office 2007 as well. I am using Vista Ultimate.
I want to add Year = 2008 and StateDues ='120' for all contact records who have a record in table Dues for 2007
SELECT tblDues.ContactID, tblDues.DuesYear, tblDues.StateDues FROM tblContacts LEFT JOIN tblDues ON tblContacts.ContactID = tblDues.ContactID WHERE (((tblDues.DuesYear)=2007));
I have tried a subquery but it won't run in Access:
Update tblDues SET tblDues.Year = '2008', tblDues.Amount = '120.00' where tblDues.ContactID in (select tblContacts.ContactID from tblContacts, tblDues WHERE tblContacts.ContactID = tblDues.ContactID AND tblDues.DuesYear = '2007');
This returns "This operation must use an updateable query"
I have a youth soccer database and I have fields for the Father, Mother, Phone, Address and Parental Support (coaching, concessions, Organizational, etc). The Parental support fields are attached to yes-no checkboxes. What I want to do is run a report that generates a list of people that have indicated they are willing to help by checking any particular box, coach, asst, fund raising, etc what is the best way to handle this ??
I have summarized a table(a) of 589 records into a table of 119 records(b).
I am trying to calculate a factor in (a) as a percentage of the total in (b) for each record in (a).
(a) can have multiple records for each corresponding, summarized record in (b).
I do this by dividing each of the many records in (a) by a summarized record in (b) with a common field in both.
Basically, I am dividing
Round(([(a)]![netchrg] / [(b)]![netchrg]),8)
All I get is 0.00000000
I have checked my join relationships. I started by checking the 2nd bubble. It did not work. Eventually, I have tried selecting all three bubbles on the joins and that does not get me any different values.
I would have thought that the 2nd bubble would have given me all of (a) and match it to the the records is (b) for the calculation.
I have even tried eliminating the joins completely but I still get a 0 value.
I have verified that both tables have values in the netchrg field.
I installed Office Enterprise 2007. Then I installed DEveloper Exrtensions, then Access Runtime 2007. All appear to have installed OK - they appear in Program and Features. Instructions on runtime packaging tell me that a Developer option should appear in the resulting drop-down when I click the Office button (top-left round thing) when I have a d/b open in Access. It's not there! I have un-installed and re-installed the extensions and the runtime - still nothing! Help! I do have Runtime 2002 (XP) on the same PC, is that relevant?
I get a very strange error when trying to create a find duplicates query. When i try to select a table that has duplicate values it brings up a message box and it says that i must pick a table that has at least one field that's not a memo or OLE data type. I look at my table and I have niether of those in it...pretty much just text and number fields. Does anyone know what's going on?
I have an expression that sets an AI Buy It Now value that is 125% of AI Value and rounds it, which follows AI Buy It Now: Round(([AI Value]*1.25)/10)*10
I need to add to this expression that I only want this calculation applied if AI Values are greater than 999. But I can't figure out how to add this stipulation to the above expression. I have tried IIF but it is not working.
SELECT tblCurrencies.CcyID, tblCurrencies.Ccy FROM tblCurrencies ORDER BY tblCurrencies.Ccy;
Now - I have a separate table of balances, which is linked to the currency table by the same CcyID, and which also has identifiers to link it to other tables (e.g. AccountID)
As part of the above query, I want to return the count of unique AccountID's in the balance table for each currency. So in other words, I want to know, for each currency, how many unique accounts exist?
Each AccountID could appear one or more times in the balance table (one-to-many relationship), so I only want to count the number of unique ID's.
So I started with the following :
Quote:
SELECT tblCurrencies.CcyID, tblCurrencies.Ccy, Count(tblBalances.AccountID) AS NoOfAccounts FROM tblCurrencies INNER JOIN tblBalances ON tblCurrencies.CcyID = tblBalances.CcyID GROUP BY tblCurrencies.CcyID, tblCurrencies.Ccy ORDER BY tblCurrencies.Ccy;
But this just gives the number of AccountID's per currency (regardless of duplication within them)
I found this article which informs me that a Count(Distinct) query won't work in Access and to use subqueries instead.
I am currently creating an Access 2007 database for calculating salesperson commissions. I have a table with 5 fields I'm working with: SalesRep, SOWRep, TerritoryRep, Period and Commission. I am trying to build a query that will calculate commission for a salesperson for each record where their name appears in one of the first three fields. Each time their name appears, they get the commission listed in the Commission field for the stated Period. I have managed to do this part successfully. My problem now is that I am creating a query that will sum all of their commissions by Period. I have run into a situation where sometimes a salesperson will not appear in one of the rep fields, resulting in NULL values in the previous queries. How can I create a final query that will sum correctly even if there are NULL values returned on the previous queries?
Here is what I have so far:
November: Avg((SELECT [SumOf1/3GM$s] FROM [BaxterActualMargin1] WHERE [Period] Like "November*")+(SELECT [SumOf1/3GM$s] FROM [BaxterActualMargin2] WHERE [Period] Like "November*")+(SELECT [SumOf1/3GM$s] FROM [BaxterActualMargin3] WHERE [Period] Like "November*"))
I am new to Access 2007. I have a list of companies of are constantly updated,deleted, and created which are listed on a table. I have a form with an unbound text box with a sumbit button that opens a new form with the information of the name of the company in the search box. Unfornately, if the name of the company is not perfect, the record is not found and the form opens a new record. I want search box tyo autill, or "wildcard" when I begin to input a name of a company. I tried a combo box but my boss does not like it. He wants a wildcard search.
I am writing a small database using MS Access 2007. I have in it a function for running queries and printing reports. Printing works just fine if any one of the multiple query criteria is give.
I also want to trap errors and present a message if the user clicks the "Print" button without a query criteria. At the moment I only get a run-time syntax error message which has a "debug" button for accessing the entire code. I want a message that will say "There was no search criteria".
This is the code for printing:
Code: Private Sub cmdPrint_Click() Dim varWhere As Variant varWhere = BuildFilter ' Update the record source Me.RecordSource = "SELECT * FROM q_Vehicles " & varWhere
I have DB in access 2007. I have a report that is uses a select query to generate the information for the report. It has been working great, But however lately like maybe with in the last month, it has been causeing Access 2007 to crash. I am having the same issue with another DB that uses the same information but that information is imported in. both Databases have worked great up until two months ago. Microsoft states that it is because of the program. I have tried to repair the DB by using the Repair option. I am confused as to why this would be happening. I can create a new report and it seems to work. but I do not want to change all the DB on everyone's computer just for this reason. I also have two buttons on my report that utilize macros to close or print the report.
Access 2007 query that has a specific date range between #6/1/12014# and #7/1/2014# returns the date I need. How do I now get it to pull just occurrences on Fri Sat and Sun of the month of June?
Hi everybody, I have an access database which is around 40 MB after compacting it and I feel that it is slow especially when I open cross table form. Is there any way to speedup the databse. Note: my databse is on the share drive in my work.
I have developed a DB for work and it has grown, it is about 60Meg, all of a sudden when I am opening Design View in Reports, or queries it started running really slow.
I always Compact on Close I have Split the DB.
Still no Joy, I have a brand new Dell PC so nothing wrong there.
What is happening? it is a nightmare to get anything done.
I've been searching for an answer for a long time, but i have a database with approx 100 forms, 100 tables (most linked to SQL Server) only a small proportion are front end tables, 50 or so queries, 20 or so modules.
Anyway the problem is, is that the database is slow, to open and to develop in, i have a decent system to develop on with a 3GHz CPU and 1 GHz RAM, but i dont get this problem with any of the other access databases i deal with.
It's kind of a lagging effect, then once it has been written into memory it's quicker... but why would that be different between the systems, as most the systems i deal with are fairly similar in size and in complexity.
For example when loading the logon screen, which is a simple unbound form, it seems to lag, there is 1 combo box which has a front end table as its row source, like 6 records. Then a username and password text boxes which are not bound to anything. Why should this be lagging? After like 2/3 secs its then ok, once ive logged in and then go back to this logon screen its fine, so i think it has something to do with memory.
Anyone else had anything similar happen to them and did they do anything to minimise this lagging effect?
My acccess (.mde) application suddenly slowed down. I have increased the size for some fields in some Tables. Is it could be the reason for this? Is there any way i can get the speed back.
I not a big time DB person so please be gentle. I am a computer technician at a school district and need some help. We use a program called Aeries made by Eagle Software for out attendance and grading. It uses an interface that runs through Microsoft Access. There are two version of this software. One is the SQL version and the other just uses an Access DB on a server. We have the Access DB version running Access 2003. It was explained and accepted in the beginning that we didn’t really need the SQL version because of our district size which is some where around 1500 students. Our district consists of 6 school sites that are all connected with a fiber optic backbone running at 200mb with a minimum of 100mb to each desktop. We have a DB for each site running on 1 very beefy server in a central location. I’ve run my problem by the software maker and don’t feel like I’m getting much help. The problem I am having is slowness during login. When the first user of the day attempts to login the program is fast, about 10 seconds from “ENTER” to the main menu. As soon as that 1st user clicks one of the menu buttons anyone else who attempts to login to that database after that experiences at least 30 seconds from “ENTER” to the main menu. I’ve watched what files are accessed and when. I see that when the 1st user logs in, the systemxp.mdw file is accessed and a systemxp.ldb file is created. Then when the user clicks a button on the main menu, the sch05xxx.mdb is accessed and a sch05xxx.ldb file is created. The sch05xxx.mdb file is the main database file for any particular site. The “xxx” would be the site number. As soon as that file is accessed or that lock file is created the user will experience the long login times and sometimes as long as 4 minutes. I don’t believe this is a hardware problem. During the same time that users are slow I have made a copy of one of the databases onto the same HDD on the same server and as long as I’m the 1st person to open it, it will fly. The 2nd person is slow just like the rest. I also don’t think it’s a permission issue, at least not in the domain. I’ve run all these test logged in as myself and have Domain Admin rights to everything. I believe this is a “split database” with the tables on the server and the forms, and queries on the users computer. I read an article here, http://www.microsoft.com/office/previous/xp/columns/column05.asp called “Why is Access 2000 slow for more than one user?” Has anyone else had this problem or have a solution? If I’ve missed something and you need more info please let me know.Thank you for your time and I appreciate any responsesJohn
I have access 2003 installed on two different machines. One machine was built 6 months ago with the best hardware available. The other was an older slow IBM.
For some reason, I am experiencing what appears to be some serious time delay (talking in the range of seconds, sometimes tens of seconds) when building a report that has a subreport in it on the fast machine. Yet when I load the exact same database on the slow machine, the report opens instantly.
I am using MS Access 2000 in a Windows Terminal Server 2003 Environment and the performance is incredibly slower than running the same job on a Stand Alone CPU with Access 2003.
Any idea? Access 2000 is running slower on a TServer? May the Access version difference explain the difference?
Is Access slower at summing null records than SQL server? I have a query which takes less than 1second in SQL server but takes about 5-10 in Access but can't think why there is such a lag in processing speeds.
I have completed a database for a company with 60 000 clients and over 100 000 job records.
The database works at very resonable speeds on the Server computer, or the computer on which I installed the back end of the database.
Each of the other 3 computers on the wireless network, have a local copy of the Front End on their machine, and reference the Back End (BE) on the server computer.
Each of the Client computers have varing speeds when accessing the BE, some as slow as 10 minutes for a simple search, filter or just loading a form.
What can I do to improve performance across the network?
Do I need to install additional components on the other computers to improve the db performance?
