Hi folks,
I am new to Access programming. I read in some web page on googling that Access is for developing Desktop database. Books inform that Access projects can connect to Server database.
I would like to know if Access can also be use for Server side programming.

I have split my database, the data is in a DB on the server and the forms, reports, etc is on the client desktop. My question is "Is there an advantage to having all of my combo box queries (Lookups) on the server side (defined in the table as a combo lookup) or should I put the all on the form so that they reside in client side DB.
View 7 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I am programming a database that contains approximately 3700 records stored in a relational table structure.
When I split the database and moved the tables to the server side, my performance worsened drastically: a query that runs in under 5 seconds when the tables are on the client side takes over 45 seconds in the split database (with tables on the server side).
I've tried a variety of solutions (including changing the subdatasheet name property to [None] in the tables, creating an MDE file from the MDB file), but they haven't helped much.
Any suggestions about how to speed performance are greatly appreciated! Thanks so much!
Hello,
I am new to these forums, and am an idiot in Access. i work for a small nonprofit and manage a project through our state Division of Rehabilitiation Services in providing Assistive Technology Services tp their clients (DORS is an agency which provides services to people with disabilities to gain meaningful employment, increase their independence or be successful in pursuing educational goals).
I have been trying to create a database to track the authorizations/clients I serve, some of them have worked but are a bit too complicated in which i am sure can be put together easier (more efficiently) and basically I am afraid to implement it as it would probably fail. Mainly a merger between a number of templates avaliable for free.
What my question is, is how much does it cost (in general) to hire someone to create the database for me. I am basically looking for a database that will be able to store client information (name, contact etc... information about their disability and their goals (employment, education etc...) who their counselor is and their contact information (multiple clients per counselor).
Now each client may have multiple authorizations (I.E. An Authorization for an Evalutation and then for training). So I need service records related to the specific authorization and then the ability to store invoices and reports related to that authorization as well. I would like it to link to a report as I create them in word and save them on a server. I would also like the ability to have the reports sent to the counselor via e-mail from the database.
Hope this makes sense, if anyone would have a generalized going price for somthing like this in terms of hiring someone to complete it that would be GREAT. Thank you,
Justin

So I'm trying to manipulate Access to create a Directory for my church. I'm trying to get a report to show the church staff, which I was able to do, but I was wondering, is it possible to get the records to show side by side instead of one on top of the other?
I included a picture of the design view showing what I would like to see. Excuse the way the numbers are written, it's hard to write with a mouse.
Form with three sections. I have three queries selecting different set of set in a table, I would like to show all three in a form side by side. How can I do this? I use form wizard bit it only uses one query as a source.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi, I am just about to start the implementaion of my A2 computing project, hopefully using both access and pascal to create a bar ordering and stock control system. My question is how and how easy would it be to link both the pascal side of the system and the access application so that they are sychronised? The access application would be used as a front end to my system, and a store of inforamtion where as the pascal code would be used to carry out the necessary calculations.
any ideas woud be appreciated
many thanks

Hi,
I want to Delete only FK on the many side first and the record on the one side by one click of a button. I wrote some code which sometimes works and sometimes it does not!!
I wonder if any one have a better idea or doing this please?
Private Sub Delete_Click()
Dim db As DAO.Database, rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim n As Integer, i As Integer
Dim vStart As Integer
Dim vEnd As Integer
Dim vSite As Integer
Dim vRCCID As Integer
vSite = Forms![frmSite].Form![SiteID]
vRCCID = Forms![frmSite]![Roads Construction Consent].Form![RCCID]
vStart = Me.PhaseStart - 1
vEnd = Me.PhaseEnd + 1
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("tblPhase")
rs.MoveLast
n = rs.RecordCount
rs.MoveFirst
If n > 0 Then
For i = 1 To n
If rs![SiteID] = vSite Then
If rs![PhaseNumber] > vStart And rs![PhaseNumber] < vEnd Then
rs.Edit
rs![RCCID] = Null
rs.Update
End If
End If
rs.MoveNext
Next i
End If
rs.Close
db.Close
Set db = Nothing
Set rs = Nothing
'/////////////////////////////////////////////
DoCmd.RunSQL "DELETE RCCID FROM tblRCC WHERE RCCID = " & vRCCID & ""
'//////////////////////////////////////////////
End Sub
tblRCC is the one side of the relationship and tblPhase is the many side.
Any help will be very much appreciated.

I have a report with some text boxes on it. Sometimes the text in these boxes can be a very long string of characters (maybe a path to some folder). In this case I do not want the text box to grow. I just want the report to show me the right-hand side of this path and cut off the left. How do I do this when still aligning my text to the left?
I have inserted two combo box in the form with lookup in the table. Now I want to select values in these boxes and filter the records having those values on click of a command button placed on the form.
How can it be done without using VBA? Is it possible with use of macro?
Kindly guide.
The following code is only for testing the usage of control variable. I want to use set statement to assign the textbox object reference to the varialbe myControl.
When I clicked the button, the system always tells me 'the object reference missing'. It seems the set statement doesn't work, but I don;t know the reason. could anyone of you please spot it out for me?
Many thanks

I know this topic has been discussed, but i could not find one thread on the general purpose of exporting an excel table/form to excel.
I would like to place a command button on my FORM, and let the user click this button and export the data into excel.
I tried using the transferspreadsheet method, but could not corrrectly, if at all get it working, and the help section within access2003 onlu covered importing into access from excel.
Please, if anyone has any links to sites/tutorials/ threads i misssed actually covering this topic/or thier own help, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Ok. So, here's the task
There are multiple employees on a table, each with a period of time for which they worked. I am trying to gather these times together to see how many complete records I have for the time period of 4/1/1999 to 12/31/2004. So, for example,
Employee 1 works from 4/1/1999 to 12/31/2000.
Employee 2 works from 1/1/2000 to 12/31/2004.
(From these two records, there will be 1 complete record of 4/1/99 to 12/31/04 AND 1 remaining record for the year 2000 left over.)
Employee 3 works from 1/1/2000 to 12/31/2004.
(From these three records, 1 complete record + 2 2000 + 1 each for the years 2000-2004.)
Employee 4 works from 1/1/2001 to 12/31/2003.
(= 1 complete + 2 2000 + 2 2001-2003 + 1 2004)
Employee 5 works from 4/1/1999 to 12/31/1999
(= 2 complete + 1 2000 + 1 2001-2003)
And this goes on for all the employees. I need to find out the end amount of how many complete records and remaining dates all the employees have worked. I hope this was at least, somewhat clear. I remember doing something similar to this ages ago in programming class, but since then, my mind has degraded. =P Any help, insights, or advice would be greatly appreciated on how to get this done. =)

I have a form which gets information from the user and upon pressing a button I produce address labels for the user. The form calls a report which does the job. This works. Now the user would like to have parameters like fonttype, fontsize and fontcolour together with margins, row and column space so that the output can be better tailored to his needs. I have inserted combo boxes on the form to get these parameters from the user, but how am I going to insert these parameters in the report layout through programming. What should be the approach?
View 5 Replies View RelatedWe're currently looking at changing a couple of my more complex Access 2003 databases to Access Front End with a SQL Server Back End. This should give us better stability and reduce network traffic loads. I was looking at the Access help file on Upsizing and came across the following paragraph. On face value to a novice like me this would seem the easy option - but is it?
"Create an Access database front-end to an SQL Server database back-end so that you can create a front-end/back-end application.
This approach requires very little application modification since the code is still using the Jet database engine. "
Would anyone recommend this approach?
I am importing an Excel file into a table in SQL Server that was created by an AS400 program.
I linked this table in MS Access. The date fields from the SQL Server table are split out. DSREQM is the month and day. DSREQY is the year. When opening the table it looks like this:
DSREQM DSREQY
215 6
I need to be able to convert this is a field to 2/15/06. However I cannot get this to work. For some reason when I execute the query it comes out as 8/02. Here is what I have:
DelDate: Format([DSREQM],"mdd") & "/" & Format([DSREQY],"y")
Any ideas?
Hi
I am attempting to write an application, using Access2003 as the front end. The Backend May be either Jet (ie an MDB), or SQL Server.
I am trying to make it so that the same code works regardless of the back end.
My approach has been to set the forms recordset to an ADO recordset like so:
Set Rs = New ADODB.Recordset
'Rs.CursorLocation = adUseClient
Rs.CursorLocation = adUseServer
Rs.Open strSQL, gcn, adOpenDynamic, adLockOptimistic
'
Set Me.Recordset = Rs
Anyone done this, and willing to sahre information/pitfalls.
First problem I am encountering is that Jet only seems to like .CursorLocation = adUseClient, and SQL Server only seemns to like .CursorLocation = adUseServer

I'm trying to help someone with Access on a CITRIS Server. I'm working with them VIA email. They say they're having problems communicating with printers and would like to utilize their email with Access. Can someone fill me in on common problems using Access with CITRIS Server as far as printers or email or anything else?
To be perfectly honest, I know nothing about CITRIS servers. Is CITRIS a hardware system or computer type of is it an operating system???
I need to be able to add a feature to an Access project that will select a group of records based on an area code( user will have to be able to select a desired number like 100, or 1000), mark those as selected, and create a single csv file...The area codes are stored in the SQL SERVER database...right now they just export groups of #'s based on area code to excel select the amount they want and cut and paste into a flat file for another application to use...they would like to be able to select a number from a list box or type it in...like 100 ( which means take a 100 #'s from all different area codes) then have them automatically noted in database as being selected..and then export all selections to one csv file... should I do part of the work in the Sql Server behind the scenes..the format of the csv file also needs to be specific in that the first row is the columns separated by commas and then the data follows all text fields enclosed by qoutes..
Thanks for anyone's help ..Im very inexperienced with VB and Access
I have created an adp, and have created stored procedures for all of my forms. In the SQL Server database I have given my users permissions as db_datareader and db_datawriter, however they were unable to open any of my forms because they didn’t have execute permissions on my stored procedures. I finally had to give them permissions as db_owner so they could use my forms. Do I have to give them db_owner permissions to execute my stored procedures? I know I can go in and assign them execute permissions for my stored procedures, but there has to be a better way. Does anyone know how to give users execute permissions on stored procedures without having to give them db_owner permissions or having to grant execute permissions for each stored procedure individually?
I am still in the development phase of my project and having to assign users or groups with each stored procedure I create could really be a pain. Can someone please help me?
I am accessing a SQL Server 2000 database from MS Access. While I can view the tables and can add records, I cannot edit or change them. How do I get around this?
View 10 Replies View RelatedI am trying to build a form to make deletes from our sql database easier for some of my coworkers.
They have a combo box that they select a patient name from, then based on that patient id, they have a second combo box that shows all appointments that patient has been to. All right so far, yes?
I want, after the first two selections are done and we have a patient and an appointment selected, to have a textbox that returns the count of the number of medical documents based on that appointment id.
I am trying to use a text box for this.
Code: "select count(appt_id) from template_audit where appt_id = " & Me.cboAppointment
I don't know what property of a text box to use to return a single sql statement into it. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.
