Two ODBC Connections Within One Pass-through Query???
Oct 23, 2007
I have a query that I want use as a pass-through query (SQL Server databases).
The query has a sub-query that references another database. The query runs fine in Enterprise Manager because EM allows me to access both databases.
If I wanted to I could link both tables through ODBC and then run an Access query that would do the same, however, I would rather use a pass-through-query for this.
The problem is that a pass-through-query in MS Access only allows me ONE ODBC connection (as far as i can tell).
My question is:
Is there a way I can run a sub-query (referencing a different database. i.e. second ODBC connection) which references a second database?
Is this possible?
Thanks
-Gary

Hello all, is there a way to change an ODBC connection in MS Access. I have 4 ODBC connections that I can choose from (all of them from the same server), and instead of manually recreating a new ODBC connection everytime, I would like to point it to the new connection. The ODBC connections (Tables) have the same information, but throughout different times during the month.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi!
I'll cut right down to it: I have an ODBC connection to a (SQL Server) test database on my development machine that is identical to the live database to which a (different) ODBC connection exists on the PC where this Access application is to be deployed. The problem is that when I deploy, there are some tables that have to be updates, because they still point to my test database. The other tables look like they use the default database for that user.
I used to be able to just copy the Access application and it would work without having to update any linked tables.
To clarify, the tables that work without a problem look like this in the Linked Table Manager:
t_mytable (DSN=odbc;)
And the problem tables have this:
t_mytable2 (DSN=odbc;DATABASE=my_test_db)
I don't seem to be able to clear that DATABASE= thing up. Can anybody tell me how this works?
If this question is overly trivial, I apologize.

I made multiple pass through queries that receive their data via an ODBC link which is established. Currently the username and password is entered seperately in every query but I was wondering if it is possible (and how) to make both look for the values in a table (OR somewhere else if possible) for these values. The following code (with edited information) is used in all queries.
Code:
ODBC;DSN=DSNNAME;Driver=Firebird/InterBase(r) driver;Dbname=Database.FDB;CHARSET=NONE;PWD=Password;UID=User;
The reason that I would like to do this is to ensure that the user can change it easily.

Good afternoon, I have a form with a subform and in the first txtbox of the subform in the GotFocus event I have a little procedure which checks the txtboxs on the parent to make sure that there is data in all four of the txtboxes. This works great the first time and it pops up a msgbox and it even setsfocus on the txtbox with no data in it, but if I tab into the subform a second time and there still is no data in one of the txtboxs on the parent form, nothing happens, no message and no setting focus on the txtbox with no data in it. Does anyone know of a way to get this procedure to re-set everytime a user tries to enter the subform? Thank you in advance to anyone offering and ideas and suggestions.

Hi,
we use access for localisation in our application. The business object which accessess the access uses DAO connectivity and we often land to
"Too many client tasks" problem.
is it wise to change the DAO to ADO? if so the above problem will go off?
what are the chances that the problem still persists?
is that access has any limits on the number of connections? like 64, 255? or is that ADO/DAO has any limitaions on the number of concurrent connections to access DB?
Pls help, your help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Venkat.

Hello Guy,
We use an Oracle base software called Trapeze and Microsoft Access sometime used as a front end to access the Trapeze oracle tables.
Due to the possible dangers of allowing the users Access, Is there a way to block the users from changing the oracle tables and only be able in MS Access to create reports and queries? Trapeze's security is antiquated and uses Oracle to validate accessibility. Since a user has to be created in Oracle, with update, delete, read, write, append rights, for Trapeze to work correctly, a user can connect directly to the Db through Access and make changes directly to the data, unless the ability to prevent them from modifying the tables and only create reports and queries that they can save.

I have a database that tracks my client information. The forms also include the agent servicing the client and the referral source from where the client came from. I also have tables and forms for each referral source and agent. Currently, if a client is referred by a referral source I go to the referral source table and make a note of it in a text box. Instead, could I tie the referral source and client table together? If, on the client form, I select that a client "Tom" came from my referral source "john" could it tie the client to the referral and note it on the referral form? My referral box on the client form sources the table of my referrals.

I want to restrict the number of times each person can open a database, but give them the option to force close the database on another PC, if they have left it with the database still open, prior to allowing them to have full access / functionality of the database on another PC.
In order to achieve this, I need advice on how to automatically record the computername as each person "logs in" to the database and secondly, send a command to close the database / Access on a PC with the stored computername.
Thanks in anticipation.

I have split my database and have the front end on numerous PC's. Is this the preferred method of a multi user database? The reason I ask is not all the data is making to the backend - only some records.

server administrators have expressed concern about my website that it is having a negative impact on the server.
He said this typically occurs when a website has a memory leak (where it obtains server resources and doesn't release them) or is opening database connections and not closing them until the point where no more are available.
I'm using asp.net to control Access and open the connections.
I don't know why it isn't closing them? the website is:
pedalcar.com
Any thoughts of what the problem is and what the statement I need to close the connections?

I'm trying to create a PTQ and just cant seem to find the source table.
The name of the source table is PRM1_ORG_MTRX3_N
If I write my query like this, I get an error code that states username.PRM1_ORG_MTRX3_N is an undefined name. It adds my userid to the beginning of the table name.
SELECT
T128.AS_OF_DATE,
T128.LEVEL8,
T128.LEVEL8_ORG_NAME,
T128.LEVEL9,
T128.LEVEL9_ORG_NAME
FROM
PRM1_ORG_MTRX3_N as T128
WHERE
T128.AS_OF_DATE like '1/1/2007'
Then I rewrote the query like this, and I got and error code that said PRM1.ORG_MTRX3_N is an undefined name. Does anyone know what else I can try here to get this query going? Thanks
SELECT
T128.AS_OF_DATE,
T128.LEVEL8,
T128.LEVEL8_ORG_NAME,
T128.LEVEL9,
T128.LEVEL9_ORG_NAME
FROM
PRM1.ORG_MTRX3_N as T128
WHERE
T128.AS_OF_DATE like '1/1/2007'

Can you do a pass through Query to a pivot table when your query has parameters? I'm reading like you can't, but nothing has been said concretely yet. When I do it, it gives me an error "Trouble Obtaining Data" when I try and set the layout.

I have an Access front-end connected to Oracle tables. When the user opens up the main form to add a new entry, I need to be able to pull the next sequential record number. However, I can't get this to happen, without filling out the entire record, saving, and then it will committ the number.
Can this be done with a pass-through query to the Oracle table, find the next sequential number, and then add it to my record id (ie, 06-1050, with 06 being the year and 1050 the next sequential number). I do have two fields in the Oracle table TXTYear and LNGNumber. This concatenated field is related to three additional tables that have more information. Each of these tables need to cascade a new record.
Confused? me too. any help would be appreciated.

I have split my database in Front End och Back End, and both are password protected. The Front End has been converted to ACCDE.
When I try to import to Excel from Front End and/or Back End using database connections I receive a message telling me that I am using an invalid password (even though I use the same password when I encrypt/decrypt FE and BE). I've tried using Access import, ODBC and Microsoft Query. (In some cases I 'm also prompted to set a username, which I do not know which it should be since I haven't set one in my database (except the automatic "admin"))
How do I go about to make this work?

I have a VERY simple select statement that I am using in a pass-through query: "SELECT * FROM dbo_vReturn;", but I cannot get this to work. Each time I run the query it generates an error: "ODBC call failed - Invalid object name "dbo_vReturn" (#208)".
The dbo_vRteturn is a view in the backend. I can open this table/view from Access using an ODBC connection but when I try to run the pass-through query it falls over!
Does anyone have any idea what is causing this?:confused:

Hi
I am struggling with what seems like should be a straightforward task. Unexpectedly however it has become an infuriatingly difficult one (no doubt due to my complete novice status).
I have a very basic d/base (3 tables) that I have been searching using basic SQL queries. I want to create a simple 'search' form that produces the results of my various queries without the need to work in SQL. Enter one or more search criteria, hit ENTER, results presented in datasheet perhaps?
Thought this would have been easy but I've had no luck. Can you please explain how I can pass a parameter from a form to a query?
Many thanks

I'm a couple of years removed from Access and shaking off the rust. I hope someone can help with something that may be obvious but I'm missing.
I'm simply looking to pass the begin and end dates to a query driving reports. The calendar form includes unbound text boxes, txtBeginDate and txtEndDate. My code populates the text boxes correctly; the user clicks on the calendar date, clicks the calendar day, then the Begin (or End) Date control, and each populates the respective textbox.
But when I run the query or report, I'm prompted for the parameters. This is what I have in the query's Date field criteria:
Between [Forms]![frm_Calendar]![txtBeginDate] And [Forms]![frm_Calendar]![txtEndDate]
I'm just drawing blank on what I did several years ago to make this work. If anyone can help, I'm most appreciative.

I'm getting an error (SQL command not properly ended) but main thing is, I can't get it to recognize the ms access db.
In a nutshell...I want to query the oracle db for a number and count, then scan a number into msaccess and have it 'find' the matching number in oracle and return the count only to ms access. More comments below between the code and here are table names for both oracle and access:
ORACLE: Table name is: batch_status bs
Field names are: batch_num and Batch size
MS ACCESS: Table name is tblbatchstatus
Field names are: batchnum and idcount
CODE in PASSTHROUGH QUERY:
select batch_num,BATCH_SIZE
from batch_status bs
(this works and selects all batch numbers and sizes from oracle)
(If I say 'where batch_num = 60024 -----this works also....)
However...when I add the below part...I get errors...it can't seem to match to access database....
SELECT tblbatchstatus.Batchnum, tblbatchstatus.Idcount
FROM tblbatchstatus;
where batch_num = tblbatchstatus.batchnum
And I want to just say: where batch_num = <<<scanned batch number>>> and return the id count.

This is my first time writing a pass through query pinging sql tables using an input parameter from a form. I have gotten as far as executing the query but I can't seem to display the result to ensure it's pulling the right records. I also want to be able to append the records to a table. Below is the code I have written so far:
Sub GETRT()
Code:
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim QDF As QueryDef
Dim STRSQL As String
Dim RS As Recordset
STRSQL = "SELECT * FROM LAB_MESR.ODM_RT_DAYS" & _
"WHERE LOCATION_ID=" & [Forms]![PARMS]![STR_NBR]
Set db = CurrentDb
Set QDF = db.QueryDefs("001:GET_LT")
QDF.SQL = STRSQL
End Sub
