Hello, I wrote an access program using version 2000 and the activex calendar 11.0 which came with the software. When i tried to run the same program on access 2003 none of my dates worked and I got error messages all over the place. Help!
View RepliesShould be a quick and easy question here... I'm getting close to splitting a DB. Back end mbd, front end mde. Searched the forum and a few other places. One subject didnt seem too clear... I developed the db in access 2002, a few of our computers are running 2003. Will I run into any problems with this setup??
Thanks
Hi all
Built an Access database using A2k3 but using the A2k format.
Having more or less completed the Database, I have tried it on several PC's that I have round the office here.
All works fine except for one form.
It works perfectly well on Access 2003 and also on Access 2000 version, but for some reason it wont work on on Access 2002.
I have added the screen shots. Anyone with any ideas?
Hi all, I have created a database for work in Access2003. I have two questions. The first is, many people at the work place use AC97 and some use AC2000. In order for everyone to use the database, i have saved it in AC97 format. It seems to open fine in Ver2000 and 2003, but i get this nag screen on load up with these versions saying "do you wish to convert the database". As I'm working off a shared drive, i don't really want anyone converting the dbase. Is there a way to disable this nag screen when loading in AC2000 and AC2003??
Second question, is it possible to have more than one instance of the database open at anytime? . If I've got the database open, my colleague can't open it. Its a simple database that writes records directly to a table. Thanks for any advice.
A few months ago I installed Office 2007 on my home PC and uninstalled Office 2003.
I am contemplating the re-installation of ACCESS 2003 on my home PC, but don't want to disturb my Office 2007 install.
QUESTION: Is it possible to have both versions of ACCESS (2003 & 2007) on my PC without creating problems for myself?
NOTE: I have two hard drives on my PC (C drive, the newer one; and E drive from my last PC). Perhaps I should install ACCESS 2003 on the E drive?
Hi I am trying to find the best way to synchronise several different versions of the one database, two of which are used by remote users so i can't really set one database on a central server, I am trying to come up with an as automated a process as possible as it will need to be done on a regular basis, has anyone any ideas??
it is a microsoft access 97 database
I will be updating it to a newer version as soon as possible
all help is greatly appreciated

Hello,
Is it possible to install two versions of MS Access on the same O.S. I already have Access97 installed. Now I want to install access 2003 without it up removing my previous access 97. If it removes/upgardes access 97 to access 2003 I will not be able to open my access 97 database.
Is this possible? and if so how?
Thanks--any help will be much appreciated.
Would having Microsoft Access 2002 and 2003 on my hard drive cause me to have error with my code?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi,
My office has updated to Microsoft Access 2007, but one of the third party softwares used requires a previous version of Access. A result of switching between the 3rd party software and Access 2007, is that 2007 installs every time.
Is there any work around to over come this problem?
Thanks,
Chander

I have a database in Access 2007 - 2010 that I push out to a couple of different co-wokers.One of my co-workers is using MS Office 2013 and the buttons I have on the forms and reports look inflated.Is there anyway to prevent this in Design mode so what I see in my version is the same as the new version of Access?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been hired to clean up and convert a flat filemaker database into access 2003 and I've spent the last two weeks learning the ins and outs of access and doing preparations. Well, today some high up database guy in another department told me not to use access because in the future when a new version of access comes out we will have to recreate the database from scratch because there are lots of problems converting between versions. I'm aware there might be some hiccups but I don't really agree with him. Plus once the database is up and functioning I don't see why we'd even have to upgrade it to a new version. It's just a small health centre patient database with info about patients and their treatments. Does anyone have any opinions about this. Thanks.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi, this problem came out of nowhere but looks like it's here to stay.
Our Access app generates various Access Reports.
Recently we installed a new version of our access app and since that version onwards, all pc's with Office XP/2003 print reports in black & white. Printing to PDF works fine though.
We can't find the reason for this. Which mean we had to go to all our clients to downgrade them from office XP/2003 to 2000!
We use mainly Xerox and HP printers.
Thanks!
Hi
I keep the production version of my database on a server, and a copy of it for development work on my desktop. Today I've made several changes to the development version, which didn't work. I then opened the production version held on the server in a separate MS Access window to compare the queries/results to see where the problem was and have found that the changes have automatically updated in the production version. Can anyone explain this? They shouldnt be linked at all. The 2 versions both link to a datawarehouse through an ODBC link, but shouldn't be linking to each other (I'm using Access 2003).
Cheers :)
I have been asked to add features (and fields) to an existing database containing private medical data. The idea is to add features to the empty database, test it with fake data, purge the fake data and deliver it to the user in another state with a simple update button. The Access 2010 database is in one piece (No front/back end).
I am looking for the best/shortest VBA method to move a lot of preexisting field data from the old database to the new version. I think I have it mostly figured out; I have code for counting, reading and writing the table names, field names and field data.
However, because the data types vary within the tables and there will be new fields in the new versions tables, my only idea, so far, is to code through the data table-by-table and field-by-field, a lengthy process with a large footprint. Moving entire tables or complete records may not be effective. Any faster way to transfer all these tables field data?
Is there a way to make access be able to store software versions and product keys automatically? Programs I am most interested in is like Microsoft Office suites and Adobe Acrobat and Photoshop and whatnot like that. I am not sure if this is even possible but I am trying to get my database fully functional with all the data and efficiency I can for at least 5 people so that I can try to sell access as a better tool than the service they are using now.

Hi All!
I'm new to ms access 2007.
How can I register my ocx files? like comdlg32.ocx?
Please help! My .mde file is running but somehow some of the features are not running.
I need to use various activeX controls in MsAccess2003. I downloaded a few activeX controls but I am having a problem with licensing. I registered the controls and the registration succeeded but when I try to add this ActiveX control on a form in MSAccess, I get the message that I don't have the license required to use this ActiveX control and that I should obtain the appropriate licence from the company that provides the licenced OLE object or ActiveX control. Any ideas on how to overcome this problem?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI use the Active X calendar control 10.0 in a number of forms*. The mscal.ocx file is in c:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice 10.
(*In the calendar's Properties it says it is "MSCAL.Calendar.7", which I think is just MS's way of confusing people.)
After splitting the deploying my app, it appears lots of my users either don't have version 10.0 or it is stored someplace else; for example, in C:WindowsSystem32. Because they don't have the correct version/path, everything crashes.
So, how can I easily determine whether users have the right ActiveX in the correct location?
The Microsoft web site says "To distribute your component as part of a Visual Basic application, you can use Package and Deployment Wizard". I don't have that wizard in my version of Access (2002 SP3 on Windows XP), so that's not an option.
Microsoft also says to "To enter the base address for your component, open the Project Properties dialog box and select the Compile tab. The address is entered in the DLL Base Address box, as an unsigned decimal or hexadecimal integer. The default value is &H11000000 (285,212,672). If you neglect to change this value, your component will conflict with every other in-process component compiled using the default. Staying well away from this address is recommended." It seems to make sense that I put the mscal.ocx in the database's directory on the server to serve as the "base address", but other than that this option scares the heck out of me.
Does someone have any suggestions how to easily ensure users have the right ActiveX version on their computer - and in the correct location? (I'm not a super-coder.)
As always, thanks
Christine
For selecting a Date /time value, I use activex control DTPicker5... What Activex object, or infact any object, can I use to select a color value ?

PS it may help to know that i am not a programer.
I'm using an activeX control and access gave me an error message showing that "I must register the ActixeX control. how can i do this?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI had a search client form. This form used to work fine, so i haven't tocuhed it for a while. Basically what happens is you double click on the client and it clones it to the form.
However just a second ago i tested the form again and an error appears "ActiveX component cant create object". I've made no modifications to anything involving this form so im bit stuck for ideas.
I also received an error message telling me to check - Visual Basic --> Tool --> Reference. That says "Missing: Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library". I have browsed for the file but had no luck in finding a file to replace it.
