The Object Doesn't Contain Automation Object X
Dec 27, 2006
I'm getting an error message (informational only):
The object doesn't contain the automation object 'ClientID.'You tried to run a visual basic procedure to set a property or method for an object. However, the component doesn't make the property or method available for Automation operations.
Check the components documentation for information on the properties and methods it makes available for automation operations.
This happens when I start entering data in the field "productname" of a subform.
So I'm assuming something in the form or in the code of the form is referring to ClientID. but I've checked it, and there is nothing referring to it anymore. Well, at least as far as I'm aware of.
This afternoon access crashed without any error, it just closed. Upon reopening the DB again, all my work of the past one and a half week was gone. Normally I always backup the data, but these past days I didn't due to christmas and still working a lot too. So I forgot.
I did some redesigning in the process this evening, deleting and adding some fields and code.
I can't get rid of this error. Can anyone help? Or point me in the right direction?
Also the DB is 3.5MB in size. While it is completely empty. And I can't imagine that some empty tables, queries, forms and a bit of code can be so much. But that's for a later time to worry about I guess, unless one of you says: this and that, maybe that works... Otherwise, I would really be very glad already if the error disappears....

I am currently building a database for the company I work for that is fairly similar to the Northwind Database; however it is made from scratch so hopefully some of the common problems with that database won't find their way into mine.My problem is that when I go to my Orders form, I pick a customer from the main form, which creates a record on the Orders table. When I then go to the subform to choose a product/line item, I get the error in my title ("The LinkMasterFields property setting has produced this error: 'The object doesn't contain the Automation object 'OrdersT.") as soon as a product is chosen from the drop down list.

The error is:
The LinkMasterFields property setting has produced this error: 'The object doesn't contain the Automation object 'tblIndividual.' '
Then it also gives me the same one on another table.
I think it has something to do with the link master/child fields. I've tried all kinds of relationships with the three tables and can't figure it out.
I've tried uploading the database here but it won't. It's on my Sky Drive.

In simple terms please explain what an Automation object is. The Access help is any help!
When I try and enter a value it comes up with "The object doesn't contain the Automation subject "Surname"" The only surname field I have is on the header of the form and is not related to the field that prompts the message.
Any ideas much appreciated

Need a second opinion on this one, if someone has the time.
The boss is asking me about this:
Small db to track keys issued to individuals.
2 tables:
#1. ID, (with auto numbering for ID,) and basic name, SS #, etc.
#2. ID and Key number, Date Issued, etc, without auto numbering.
1 to many relationship (#1 to #2).
Cascadeing Update and Delete, and referencial integrity.
He has a form and subform based on a query, wants to do basic info entry on main form (for table #1), then tab to subform to enter specific info for (for table #2).
Problem is, when he tabs to the subform, he gets "Automation Object "Keys Issued" Not Available" error message.
I've found that in his querry, he is pulling the ID from both tables.
I can stop the error by eliminating the the ID from Table #1, using only the one from Table #2.
Is this just a fluke, or do you think I may have hit on the root cause? Any suggestions for problems to watch out for?
Thanks in advance,
BeckieO

Hello
I am using Access 2003(11.6355.6360) SPI
When I attempt to create a new DB - by performing Blank Database I immediately get a message 'Object Library not registered'.
If I 'OK' that box and try to create a table, I can do so - create Table in design view.
When I then try to Import external data - an excel file I get the message 'ActiveX component Can't create object'.
I have looked ob various sites for help and forum information regarding these errors but have found nothing conclusive, with specidfic regard to Access 2003.
The version has been loaded on my machine about 1 year as part pf Office Professional but this is the first time I have attempted to run Access itself.
Does any forum member have any ideas as to how this problem could be resolved.
Thank You
Rgds

I am creating an form in a database and whenever one of my procedure's run it creates this error message:
The expression ON Load you entered as the event property setting produced the following error:
Member already exists in an object module from which this object module derives.
*The expression may not result in the name of a macro, the name of a user-defined function, or [event Procedure].
*There may have been an error evaluating the function, event, or macro.
An ideas?

I keep coming up with the warning- object does not contain the automation object "SelectCountry" .
I have searched through but can not find this in the object properties. Is there a way to do a search through all code or properties through an automated search within Access?
Thanks

table1 = 21 records
table2 = 21 records
table3 = 441 records
ex 1. (table1+table2)=(table3)
ex 2. (table1+table2)and(table1+table2)makes(table3)
as confusing as that sounds it gets worse
I want to find a way to do a true or false expression for the bottom formula.
There are nearly 195,000 possible combinations for ex 2, so you can see that after a short time you will find yourself doing repeats if you do not have something in place to tell you that you have done this combination before.
So, is there a way to have a msg box come up saying "Ooops, you have already tried this combination before"??

I want to run code when I change a page in the Tab Control object. The code I run depends on the page selected.
I tried the 'On Click' code of the page, but that didnt seem to run when I clicked on the pages.
The 'On Change' code of the Tab Control object seems to run whenever I change a page.
So the question is:
1/ Is it possible to run code when an individaul page is clicked on?
OR
2/ What is the syntax of identifying which page is selected?
If TabControl = 1 then
....
Else
...
????

Is there a way to tie a send object to a combo box on a form? I know I can write a query to pull information from a selection in a combo box using the [form][formname]thing. What I'm trying to do is I've created a database that allows many users to enter a request in a form. then when the form is complete they need to E-mail the form to their respective manager. I want them to choose from a combo box, then click on a button and the form is e-mailed to their manager for approval. I've gotten everything else to work accept for being able to choose the manager. I know I could also leave that blank and it will ask for them to enter the recipients name. If that's my only option I'm ok with that.
Thanks
PS If this issue has already been addressed I couldn't find it.

Hello everybody.
I have an Access application with a browse button that allows to search for files on computer. It does not work on all computers.
Computer A and computer B both are running XP Pro and Office Pro 2003.
Browse button works on A but throws ".. no object ..." error on B. It also works on a computer running Office 2002. Office was uninstalled [typical] and re-installed as full install on B and that did not fix the problem.
Here's my browse button code.
Private Sub cmdBrowse_Click()
' Prompts user for back-end database file name.
On Error GoTo Err_cmdBrowse_Click
Dim strFileName As String
Dim oDialog As Object
Set oDialog = Me!Xdialog.Object
With oDialog ' Ask for new file location.
.DialogTitle = "Please Select New Data File"
.Filter = "Access Database(*.mdb;*.mda;*.mde;*.mdw)|" & _
"*.mdb; *.mda; *.mde; *.mdw|All(*.*)|*.*"
.FilterIndex = 1
.ShowOpen
' If user responded, put selection into textbox on form.
If Len(.FileName) > 0 Then Me![txtFileName] = .FileName
End With
Exit_cmdBrowse_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_cmdBrowse_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdBrowse_Click
End Sub
So, what's the difference between my A and B? Does it have to do with Activex controls?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi,
I've downloaded a database which creates cascading combo boxes; it's called CreateCascadeCombo, for which I am grateful to whoever took the trouble to create it.
However, after it has done it's work and vreates the form in my own datbase, it says to make sure the latest DAO Object library must exist in the same database. How do I ensure that is is? I'm using access 2003.

I have created a database with Access 2007 and would like to remove some tables and reports that do not work as I had planned. I have tried to select them from the navigation pane and use the right click menu, however the delete option is grayed out.

Is there a way I can print something that will tell what each table and/or query is dependent on and what depends on each one? I don't mean relationships, just the dependencies. I'm trying to clean up a database but it was built before I started and I use some of the prebuilt stuff and don't want to delete anything I need, but the query and table lists are excrutiatingly long. :(

I have a form based on a calculated query.
To allow users to edit some of the non-calculated fields I change the form's recordsource to a non-calculated query, but I still get "Database or object is read only".
I tried putting "msgbox currentdb.udateable" just after where I change the recordsource and I get the message "True" so db should not be in read only state...
If I open the form with the non-calculated query as source to start with, I can update the fields just fine.
What do I need to add to my code after Form_frmMyform.RecordSource="qryWriteable" to allow writing to the recordset?

I'm trying to force a user to enter text into a field. To this end, I've created a subroutine for the exit method of the text box they are supposed to fill out. I check to see if the .text property is null, and if so create a message box that pops up a notification telling the user they need to fill in said field. After that, I try to use the Me.txtReason.SetFocus (the text box is called txtReason) to return the focus to that text box, but instead it moves on to the next text box. Is there a way I can prevent the user from leaving the text box until they've entered some sort of data into it?
Thanks,
Dave

Greetings, all.
Run into a snag with a payroll db, appreciate any help you can give me.
Main Form, with ordinary payroll/personnel info--clock no, first and last names, S.S.no., etc.
Subform for entering regular hours worked, OT hours worked, etc per Period Ending, keyed to main form by SS no. Pretty basic stuff.
Problem is, when we try to enter the first data in the subform, we get this error message :
"You can't assign a value to this object.
*The object may be a control on a read-only form.
*The object may be on a form that is open in Design view.
*The value may be too large for this field."
We get the message in the first field we go to, no matter which field we go to first.
None of the "may be" conditions apply.
When we hit "OK" the message goes away and we can enter our data, the records are created corrected. But as soon as we move to the next record, we get the same error.
Any idea why we're getting this error message?
Thanks for looking,
BeckieO
