Ok, I know you guys have heard about this problem quiet a few times, my search told me that. But my problem has a bit of a twist. The message appeared when I tried to open the database yesterday, so I went to the backups and tried to open them. All the backups for the past month give the same message. The problem is with the FE only, the BE is working fine. The backups are connected to the same workgroup as the FE and BE. Has anyone seen this before and know what might of happened?
Ever since I switched from using a Mapped Drive to using the UNC path for my linked tables, i occassionally get Unexpected Error (40230).
I noticed this first when i manually re-linked using the link table manager, it linked the tables, then gave me this error several times, likely reflecting the number of tables i linked, but the links refreshed.
I then noticed this error when i used the acCmdZoom method on a textbox control on a continuous form. It opened the zoom, then gave me the same error several times, likely reflecting the number of records on the form, (i just hit the esc key to scroll through all the errors quickly.)
Any thoughts would be much appreciated,
*** UPDATE, Ok, I just did a Linked Table Manager again, got the error 112 times (or so), which is nowhere near the number of tables linked. After the error occurs once, and you perform that operation again, the error does not happen. Same thing when zooming, the error occurs sever dozens of times, but when i perform the zoom again, it does not repeat the error.
Why does my sub form which is contained in a Tab, not display unless a certain field is populated with something? It's not a required field. Infact it is one of two identical fields... a relationship and a lookup to another table. It doesn't matter if the second one if filled in or not. Just this one. The record is in the database, I choose from a drop down in the header... and the subform then requeries and displays the information. However, unless this 1 field is filled in.. the subform remains blank. It is getting on my nerves!!
I have the following tables, tblAudit and tblCriteria. The first records companies and period of audit, the second contains the criteria against which they will be audited. The audit period determines which criteria apply. Results are recorded in a third table, tblAuditResults.
My problem is when I try to add a new result by selecting a criteria via a combo box a new row is inserted in the criteria table as well as in the result table. Inserting a row in the criteria table is wrong.
A report field data is sourced from a query which displays its values as a string eg "George Renee", however in the reports it displays data as a number eg 42. It is true that the query field obtains its data from a table which gets its data through lookup Wizard. I really want the report to display string type.
I am getting this error message: "Unexpected Error from External Database Driver" when I try to import some .dbf files into Access. I just did some quick research, and it was suggested that I remove or rename the borland driver. Not sure how I feel about attempting that, plus, where do I get a new borland driver once the old is removed/renamed.
I've got a query pulling data from a view I created that gives all the data I need. The query gets it's criteria from a form with 10 combo boxes, a radio box with 3 options and 2 date fields for the timeframe to run the report in.
The issue: over half the columns of data that the radio buttons can limit results by have null values but only two of the columns are excluding records where the values in them are null. As any combination of the combo boxes are null I'm using the following format for my criteria per column IIf(IsNull([Forms]![Margin Dialog]![InstallerOption]),[Installer_from_Web],[Forms]![Margin Dialog]![InstallerOption]) That is an example of a column that works, the following is a column that is excluding null values no matter what I do IIf(IsNull([Forms]![Margin Dialog]![AOIOption]),[ProductType],[Forms]![Margin Dialog]![AOIOption]) I am not seeing the error and could use some thoughts.
i do a query and outer join this table with a query and it produces LESS records = 3733
:confused:
now i always assumed (never assume it makes an "ass" out "u" and "me" !) that the records would be the same as the table you were joining from, obviously i've assumed wrongly, but why?
the query i'm using as my lookup query is grouped and i think that is causing me problems...if i turn it into a table, it works as expected
:confused:
and i check the obvious: no filters or SELECT DISTINCT...
I have an entry Form which is used to record prospective new members of a society in a Table named 'Foreigners' in a Membership Database using Access 2010. The entry form also records the name of the 'Interest Group' to which the prospective member is initially affiliated.
On entering this Group Name, selected from a drop down list from the Groups Table, The Group ID & Leader Member ID are automatically recorded.
However, I don't wish to record the Leader Member ID, what I wish to record is the Leader's Member Name which is identified by that ID in the related 'Mail List' Table.
In the Properties sheet the relevant source for this field is shown as Leader, but what is displayed is the Leader ID...
I have a website which uses a series oif ASP/VBscript scripts to access and update an Access database. It has run for years on a shared commercial service.I also have a replica of the wesbite on my home pc for development and testing running under XP Pro and IIS. All works fine.
Recently I have had to switch my home setup to my laptop (also XP Pro and IIS). The scripts all appear to work ok except when I try to UPDATE certain tables.
Some give "Syntax error in UPDATE statement." Some give "Data type mismatch in criteria expression." Some work without error
Yet the identical script and table on the main site and my home PC work fine and have done for years.
Code: SELECT Reference, InStr(1,FunctionThatReturnsLongString(), ResponsiblePerson) As MyField FROM MyTable WHERE (Reference ='ShouldBeOut' OR Reference = 'ShouldBeIn1' OR Reference = 'ShouldBeIn2')
It returns 3 rows, with values in MyField of 0, 23 and 355.
Now I add 1 more where clause to filter on MyField and the query looks like this:
Code: SELECT Reference, InStr(1,FunctionThatReturnsLongString(), ResponsiblePerson) As MyField FROM MyTable WHERE (Reference ='ShouldBeOut' OR Reference = 'ShouldBeIn1' OR Reference = 'ShouldBeIn2') AND ( InStr(1,FunctionThatReturnsLongString(), ResponsiblePerson) > 0 )
So, you would think that it should return 2 values (ShouldBeIn1 and 2), but it doesn't. It only return the value where the Instr returns value of 23. The one with the value of 355 also disappears. Why would that be? Surely Instr does not return a byte?
I am trying to determine the state that a job is located in. If the ProjectID begins with a 2 then it is in California. If it does not then the job is located in Nevada.
Does any one know of a place online where you can get the tables (for free I hope) for a city state zip comboboxes, or at least the tables for all cities in the US.
If the check box is null (grey) - the default value, I do not want to include it is the sql statement. If I use the code below I get the error 94 Invalid use of null. How else can I exclude this ststement is the check box is grey.
thanks
If CheckStaged Then strWHERE = strWHERE & " AND s.Staged = " & CheckStaged End If
1) how can i have a record automaticly fill in the next date from the privous record? (Example if record 1 has date:10/14/05 i want record 2 to fill in in that same feild 10/15/05?
2) how can i have a reccord automaticly fill in the same number from the privios record? (Example if record 1 has Number :34 i want record 2 to fill in in that same feild 35?
I keep on changing these numbers, so its vitel that it repeats the privous record
"This database is in an unexpected state; Microsoft access cannot open it.
"This database has been converted from a prior version of Microsoft access by using the DAO CompactDatabase method instead of the Convert Database command on the tools menu. This has left the database in a partially converted state.
"If you have a copy of the database in its original format, use the convert database command on the tools menu to convert it. If the original database is no longer available, create a new database and import your tables and queries to preserve your data. Your other database objects can't be recovered."
The database is on the server. Nothing was changed. Someone in our IT department says they simply opened it and then closed it. I think that they had their access program set to compact and repair on close.
I have tried to import the tables but am gettting the same errors.
I have the original database but it is an old backup that is missing data.
Hello out there: We have a application that imports information from a csv file into our customer order table. After we process the order we have to export this inforrmation to our UPS shipping program to process the shipments.
Problem is that the UPS program only recognizes the abbreviations for state names. Is there a way to run a macro, code or update query that will change the state names to the correct abbreviated version before we do our export?
I am trying to get the Top 10 NPI's by State and By County based on the Current_Year_Members_Outreached. Below is the query I created but I haven't been able to verify if the results are correct because when I execute it runs and some results show but in the lower right corner of the screen it says "Formatting Page" and seems to be taking forever.
My source table only has 67k records which doesn't seem like a lot. So, I have two questions:
1. Does my query below look correct based on what I am trying to achieve? 2. Is there a better way to right this query to get better performance?
Code:
SELECT A.STATE, A.COUNTY, A.NPI, A.[SumOfCurrent Year Members Outreached] FROM Qry_Provider_Distinct AS A
I need help with the code for a combobox. The thing is that I've created a form where the user has to select the country, then the state and finally the city. What I need is that once the user selects the country, the combobox of the state shows only the states of that country and then the combobox of the city shows only the cities of the chosen state. I'd appreciate all the help given. Andrew.
I have a database will all the FM stations in the USA/Canada, I wish to plot the frequency and calls to the correct city on the state map as per the attachment, can it be done? If so, what are my steps and what maps can I use?
I'm stuck on something that should be simple, but maybe it isn't:
Problem 1:
To speed data entry in a contact table, I want an entry in the Zipcode (postal code) field to automatically populate the City and State fields from the data in a Zipcode table (Zipcode-PK, City, ST (2 letter code)). The Zipcode table has only one city /st for each zipcode, so it can be the primary key (always a five digit number, sometimes with leading zero(s)).
Sometimes there are several names for a City associated with a particular Zipcode, so I want the City field to be able to be overwritten with a different city name if the data entry person needs to do that. Alternatively, I could establish a separate primary key for the zipcode table, and allow several choices for the rare zipcode that has more than one city name in use.
If I did that I wouldn't have to store the city and st in the contact table (which is better database design, I realize), but I really do want to be able to store the city and state in the contact table because there will be times when the right zipcode isn't known, and the city and state are known, and forcing the input of a possibly incorrect zipcode would be undesirable.
Problem 2: I've got a table with 4,000 records where I have the zipcode, but the city and state information were lost, and I want to be able to re-populate those fields by writing, I guess, an update query that taps the info in the zipcode table.
Problem 3: When entering addresses, sometimes there won't be info about a certain zipcode, and I need some automatically generated dialog that allows adding city and state info for a new zipcode that won't slow down the entry of contact records.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Send an email if you prefer.
Apologies first if there is an easy answer to my problem.
I have set up an option group with 3 checkboxes with choices Yes, No, Maybe. On data entry you can click any of the three boxes but after clicking one how do you revert to a situation with all 3 checkboxes cleared. I don't want to use a default checkbox as that would add another row but I just want to clear out the boxes so it looks as though none of them have been ticked.
I am trying to create a suitable expression, either on the form itself or in the underlying query, that calculate the balance after each transaction, like a bank statement. What is the best way to do it?
i want to have a button where the operator can cancel when on a current record. i want an if. if form has changes made but not saved then undo else close.
I'm trying to do something with Excel and Access. From Excel 2007, I need to open an Access database exclusive, import from Access to Excel a table, do some work within Excel, and then start a macro within the Access database. Briefly, here’s what I have
1) To open the database exclusively:
Set connDB = New ADODB.Connection With connDB .Provider = "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" .Mode = adModeShareExclusive .Open strdbpath 'path to database End With
2) To import from Access:
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM [" & tn & "];" 'tn is Access table If connDB.State = adStateOpen Then Set objRS = New ADODB.Recordset objRS.Open strSQL, connDB, adOpenForwardOnly On Error Resume Next objRS.MoveFirst If Err.Number = 0 Then On Error GoTo 0 fieldCnt = objRS.Fields.Count For fieldNum = 0 To fieldCnt - 1 ws.Cells(1, fieldNum + 1).Value = objRS.Fie(fieldNum).Name Next fieldNum ws.Cells(2, 1).CopyFromRecordset objRS End If End If
3) To start a macro:
DoCmd.RunMacro "Daily Import"
Everything seems to work until the ‘DoCmd’ statement where I get a “You can’t carry out this action at the present time” error message.
