I have 3 combo boxes on my form and I am trying to update the second by the choice made on the first. I have a query for each box that when a selection is made it makes a table of information I use in the next box, and after I select something from the first box I get this error, but it does populate the second list. Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks.

I have a form with a combo box that contains a list of customers. Select a customer from the combo box and the form fields populate with general customer info. The form has a subform on it with a combo box where you can select products. Select a product from the combo box and the subform populates with customer-specific product info.
If I open the main form and select a customer, then without doing anything else I select another customer, everything works ok. It’s when I select a product on the subform, and then try to select a different customer on the main form that I get “Run-time error 3211: The database engine could not lock table tblCustomer because it is in use by another person or process.”
Can anybody shed some light on this? I’ve been confounded by it for days.
Hello everyone,
I have written some code that will add some entries to a table:
Set myTable1 = db.TableDefs("Weekly_Card")
Set rst1 = myTable1.OpenRecordset(dbOpenDynaset, dbOptimistic)
While i < arrayCounter
With rst1
.AddNew
![ProjectID] = projectNames(i)
![MemberID] = usrName
![WeekNo] = noWeek
.Update
End With
i = i + 1
Wend
The problem is that when i am trying to execute this code a form is already open that is bound to the table and so i get the followng error:
"3211" Runtime error
"The Database engine could not lock table "Weekly Card" because its already in use by another person or process"
Now my questions are:
Is there a way to access the table and add data to it whilst it is being used ?
Is there a way around this problem?
I am using Microsoft Office access 2003.
Thanks in advance

I have a DB with multiple import processes to take in information and populate various tables. This has been in place for some time and works with no issue.
The import process involves the creation of a local staging table, to which I import the received data, normalise it according to my own table structure, remove any duplication (i.e. same data imported repeatedly) and append the cleansed data to the main tables.
I've just added a validation step to check for data integrity. In other words, for duplicate data, rather than simply purge it as I was doing previously, I now check to see if the data has changed in any way and prompt the user if necessary (with the option to either ignore the change or update the existing record)
However, since I added this extra step, I am getting the following error message during my import process :
Error 3211 : The database engine could not lock table 'tblStaging' because it is already in use by another person or process
It only appears a) when a data change is detected and b) when the option to update is chosen, and seems to occur after the update has taken place (i.e. I can see the records suitably updated)
But I can't replicate the error while debugging so it seems to be a run-time issue. It's definitely not another user as the staging table is deliberately local (specific to that user's front-end)
I suspect I can probably solve the problem by adding some kind of DoEvents call or brief pause somewhere but the problem is, I don't know where the problem is occuring, so I don't know where to add the line? Or if that would even solve the problem at all?
Is there an easy function I can call to check if the staging table is locked? Which I could then use to debug and identify exactly where the lock is causing a problem? Or even apply the DoEvents to release the lock? (It must eventually get released as if I step through the code, I don't get the error?)
I have a form that contains a subform. The subform is a datasheet which calls the results of a query of 4 tables (tbl_companies, tbl_deals, tbl_products, tbl_vl).
In the main form there is a button which opens a report with a historical record of dates of value changes of each product up to a chosen date. This chosen date is determined by inputting a date into a text box.
This report also sources (tbl_companies, tbl_deals, tbl_products, tbl_vl).
When I try to open the report, I get the run-time error "3211".
'The database engine could not lock the table "Tbl_companies" because its already in use by another person or process.'
I'm guessing that because the query for the subform is already calling the table, the query for the report can't call the table at the same time?
I have this:
Private Sub GetTotal()
Dim ctl As Control, intScore As Integer
For Each ctl In Me.Controls
If ctl.ControlType = acCheckBox Then
If ctl = True Then
intScore = intScore + ctl.Tag
End If
End If
Next
Me.Points = intScore + Nz(Me.extra_points)
End Sub
which should and does take the tag element of a check box and add or subtract from intScore.
However upon making the form tabular it doesn't work...
any help here?

I am using Access 2000 with a search feature to find students by entering an ID_Number. It finds the person in the database and it is supposed to show a pop-up message if the person in the database has either one of MAJOR_CD on their records. It returns this error:Run Time Error '13': Type Mismatch.
Any ideas on how to solve this?
Many thanks,
Dion
I have a simple note section on my form (data type set to memo). This is where my staff enters any notes when they speak to a student. For some reason, on a handful of records (3-5 of 3,000 records) a run-time error occurs when the user attempts to edit or add anything to the notes.
Does anyone have any ideas on why this is happening? :confused:
I have an application which I did in 2003 version and then converted it for 2002 version.
Everything works fine in 2003 but when I open in Access XP 2002 version then I get the following error.
Run-time error '2467':
The expression you entered refers to an object that is closed or doesn't exist.
I debuged the application and found the following cause.
I have two forms 'ManageCustomers' and 'AvailableIDs'. AvailableIDs is as subform of ManageCustomers and set to unbound.
Now in VBA of ManageCustomers I am doing the following:
Form_AvailableIDs.RecordSource = someSource
This statement is producing the above described error. It works fine in Access 2003 but in 2002 this error occures.
Thanks in advance for your time.
I've been using this database now for a good few years without many problems but now that I upgraded from 2000 to 2003 It's been playing up on me :confused:
The problem only occurs on my PC & not anyone elses, so I don't think it's a database problem but maybe something on my machine. I have not upgraded any other PC's yet. Only mine as a test.
The database is split & shared on our sever with each user having a copy of the front end on their PC
I even copied a working front end from another PC to mine but it still fails.

I've installed/removed access 2000 & 2003 a couple of times now but nothing seems to help.:confused:
Oh...I have checked the references
the only difference I see is that 2000 has Microsoft Access 9 object library & 2003 has Microsoft Access 11 object library

Im building a new database using Access 2003 SP2 on windows XP SP2 with 1 GB RAM.
When i try to execute the following line of VBA code I get an "out of memory" error:
Form_Confirmation.txtDept = cboDept.Text
Before this line of code I don't query any data or open any DAO connections, Im only checking the entered values in various text boxes and combo boxes on a form. I have also tried rebooting my computer and it still gets stuck at the same line.
What i basically want to do is just move data entered into text boxes on a shipping order form i created and present that data on another form to confirm the entered data. The error occurs when i try to move data from one form to another. The database is still only 1MB with only 5 tables, each with only a few records in them just for testing.
Do i need to install a service pack or download something to fix this error?
I get the subject run time error when I try to past a record. The error reads:
"The value you entered doesn't meet the validation rule defined for the field or control."
Then it takes me here in the VBA:
Private Sub cboEmployee_AfterUpdate()
Me.RecordSource = "qryHours"
Me.Refresh
End Sub
More info:
The form I am using is a continuous form. The record source for the form is "qryHours". The combo box "cboEmployee" is a drop down they use to select their name, which updates the form with the hours they have logged into the system.
Because the projects they work on are the same from week to week they would like to copy and past records, making keeping track of their time less time intensive.
Any ideas?
Hi!
Short Introduction.
Table 'People' - the table contains info about people. two of the fields are 'PersonalEmail' and 'ReferrerEmail'. It means, each person has it's referrer. Referrer is one of the existing persons in the table.
Queries.
* I have some queries that calculate statistics for persons - No problem.
* I have queries that find 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th generation for defined person from table 'People' (it means i chose in form any person and want to see, what his 1st generation - where he is the referrer, 2nd generation - where his 1st generation is referrer and so on...) and combine this data with the person statistics, that calculated in the queries i've described above. - No problem.
* I'm trying to calculate total statistics for generations described above - query. I succeed to do it only for first 2 generations and get the error: Run-time error '3035' and the message is: System Resource Was Exceeded (it's my translation :) ), when i'm trying to run the 3 generation query.
Could you explain me what happened?
I am attempting to set up a query which will perform aggregate functions on records from two fields (Speed, Volume) and group them by a time field (SensorTime). This should essentially result in several months of data being combined into a succint 24-hr time period, divided into 288 five-minute intervals.
The problem is that Access will group some of the time values together, but not others. After some detective work I discovered that many of the times that APPEAR to be equal are actually different values when carried out to the 15th decimal point. I learned that this is a result of rounding error within Excel, from whence I originally imported the data.
My question is: can I apply a ROUND function to times in the original table, thereby solving the problem in all the resulting queries (and if so, how)? Or will I need to round the time values in each individual query (this would take some time)? Or is there a better way to equalize these time values that I'm not aware of? I know Excel has a "Precision as displayed" option but I couldn't find anything similar in Access.
Eagerly awaiting advice!

I have a Switchboard form that gives the visitor several options from which to choose. All work fine except one.
The one in question loads just fine. This form has an unbound combo box used to search the database. When the user selects an option from the combo box the subform is then populated with the information. All of this works fine. The problem arises if the user tries to close Access (not the form, but rather closing out Access). We get a "run-time error 2455: you entered an expression that has an invlid reference to the property form/report". I've tried clicking on Debug, but Access closes and I cannot see what is causing the error.
Like I said, the other forms work. If instead the user opens another form from the Switchboard and then closes Access, there are no problems - it closes like it should. The error only occurs for this form and only when Access is being closed, not the form.
Anyone have any ideas how I can trap this or how to stop it?
Thanks.
Code:
cboNumber1_AfterUpdate()
Me.txtPerson1 = Me.cboNumber1.Column(1)
Me.txtEthnicOrigin1 = Me.cboNumber1.Column(42)
Bound to Column 1
table field 1 = Number
table field 2 = Person,
table field 43 = EthnicOrigin
I had this running ok until importing fresh table data now I get run-time error with:
*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

When I try and open one of my forms it comes up with:
run-time error 2105
You can't go to the specified record
when I click to debug, the problem occurs when it tries to set focus on on of the fields in the form on the on open event of the form.
If anyone has any suggestions on why this error is occurring they would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Hey Guys,
I have created a feild that automatically names an object using the sendobject command.
This is done by a copy and delete method. I can give more info on this if necessary.
My problem is that on occasion I get a Run-time error 2033. Name conflicts with existing module, project, or object library.
This error doesn't occur all the time, just on occasion, and doesn't always appear to be consistent each time it happens.
This is one of the last errors that need to be worked out prior to releasing this database to a number of users. Any help or explantion would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

This is my code for the insert into command.
I can't seem to figure whats wrong.
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
If Not IsNull(Text96) Then
DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO walkers (Walker, Firstname, Lastname, Date, Visits) VALUES('" & Text96 & "', '" & Firstname & "', '" & Lastname & "', # & Date & #, " & Text98 & ");"
Text96.Value = Empty
Text98.Value = Empty
End If
I believe it has to with the date, if I take the date out it works...
thanks for any help...

Hello I am getting a strange error message run time 2105.
I have created a macro on a menuform to open myform and go to a new record. When this myform opens, I get the run time error and it says you may be at the end of a recorset.
The problem is given to me because probably I have added the following code to the exit event of the SSN fields which is the first field that has focus on my form:
If Len (Me![ssn]. & vbNullString = 0 Then
msgbox "You need to enter a SSN"
Cancel = True
Else
Cancel = False
End If
End Sub
I need to force data entry in the SSN field but the run time error comes up.
Any idea? Thank you.
I want to get rid of subforms and want to use Dlookup function for retreiving data. Every time, I use Dlookup, I get this error message
Run time error:
You cancelled the previous function.
I am failing to debug this.
