Hi all..
I need to open an application when user clicks a command button...From this forum I have learnt that I can use SHELL command..but when I use this command to open an application, it opens a new instance of the application everytime...Can I bring the application to the foreground if it was already open?
Thanks in advance.
I am designing an application in Access 2003 and it's pretty much working now.
I have a main form set to automatically open (through database startup).
sometimes, access disappears before even showing the form. The ldb file remains in the folder and access does not show up in Tasks (so it's really terminated).
I do have On_Load event code in the form, but nothing drastic and I went through and made sure that all subs have Error Handlers.
It doesn't give me any error messages, just disappears. This also happens when I try opening the main form from the open Access app, but not as often.
Usually, if I open by holding Shift, enter the form in Design view and close it, it then opens no problem.
Any ideas? I searched and googled, but to no avail.
Thanks!
it is possible to Open access application like desk application done with java or vb, or install access application as exe or similar methods. My requirements is to giving a access application to customer with data base for printing an invoice. when he running the aplication he can see access open and tables, queries forms left hand. how to hide these thing ?
View 4 Replies View RelatedThis seems like a very silly question but I wondered if someone could tell me how I open up another mdb file from a form?
I've tried the following
On Error GoTo Err_Command976_Click
DoCmd.Quit
Dim stAppName As String
stAppName = "S:updateUpdateMDEUtility.mdb"
Call Shell(stAppName, 1)
Exit_Command976_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_Command976_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Command976_Click
End Sub
But I just keep getting "Invalid Call Procedure or Argument"
Many Thanks

We have an extensive reporting application in Access and would like it to be available through a web application. I've went down the road of migrating this application to SQL to use SQL Reporting Services; this is a good tool but I am wondering if MS Access has an easier solution for me other than migration to SQL.
I'm looking for a solution that will make these reports available over the web for many users. Price tag is a consideration...need to know if there is any.
Please help...thanks in advance for any thoughts!!!!
I have a shared 2000 db and for the last few days someone has been leaving it open. In '97 you could open the .ldb file and see who it was, is there a way to find out in 2000?
Also, I have seen something on remotely removing users who leave the application open but can't find it now. Does anyone know how this is done? The data must be refeshed daily and hasn't been for the last four days due to this lock.

Please help. When trying to launch MS Access 2000 I get an error: " Can't find the database you specified, or you didn't specify a database at all. Specify a valid database name in the command line, and include a path if necessary." When I try to open a valid Access file, the application simply doesn't display anything.Please help to fix the problem.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThere are around 100 customers.And on application open, need to check if customer has paid invoice. If the customer has paid/not paid need to change the status accordingly. Form on open event changes status of only the first customer.Form on current changes status only if we move to the specific record. Is there an event to trigger to check the entire table records on application open?

I have this Access application. Now I want to see the databases and fields defined.but when I open the access file, it straight opens the access application.
Then when i press Alt+F11, it opens VB Editor. Then when I click on Design mode it comes back to access in the design mode, but still does not shows the design mode for databases and reports and all.
I can remember there is one more step I need to do after getting into the design of the form.But I cannot remember that
Could anyone please help me out
thanks

I am developing an application in access xp (2002) and want to distribute it as a runtime application. I do not have the Office xp Developer version and thus need to buy the MS Office Developer. It is still available and if so, where can I buy it? Or can the Visual Studio Tools for the MS Office System make a runtime version from access 2002?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi
I have created a website that includes an Access database providing a directory of manufacturers and suppliers to complement a magazine version.
The requirement now is to distribute the catalog on CD as well and the challenge is how to supply a query function?
I created a cd version of the website and it works fine - except if the user does not have Access installed the queries dont work.
I know the MS Developer Edition is the preferred route but it is very expensive for a simple application like this - does anyone know of an alternative approach?

Hello,
I have an Access application which was written on Access 2.0. I need to run it (as is). I saw that it was possible to run it using some kind of Access 2.0 runtime environment - my client uses the following command to run the application:
Msarn200.exe application.mdb /ini application.ini
Where can I get this MSARN200? Do I have to find the Access 2.0 installation itself?
Hello everyone. This is my first post (for not asking help :) )
I look at topics for start up options etc and I think all of this it’s ok but there is a smarmiest way to start your application. So here we go..
We make a vbs Script
Set WSHShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WSHShell.Run """C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE11MSACCESS.EXE""/RUNTIME ""C:Documents and SettingsEvalDesktopDataBaseUI.mdb"""
And we start The Access In runtime and open your Db
Note this working with Access 2003 .If you have an other version just change the access directory “C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE11MSACCESS.EXE”
Where is your Office Access
Then you can make a shortcut of your .vbs script and rename it ass you like
You’re Application Name. You can change the Icon (If you have a Program File’s Folder Place your icon) Right Click Properties/Change Icon
Then your app is starting in Access /Runtime and everything is fine :)

Using the MDE-menu function in MS Access it returns an error. MS Access is not able to make a MDE-file of my database. I prefer to make a runtime of my database, but surfing the internet I can not find a way to do this. Can you give me directions for this?

View 4 Replies View RelatedMy MS 2000 Access application is crashing and returns a msg something like this: "Your Access application caused an error and Access must be closed"
This occurs only when I execute some forms; always the same forms cause the problem.
Somebody told me to copy the .mdb to another place in my HD and change the names of the forms.
I did it and it always works well!
Any good reason for that?
My app is not yet splited in FE and BE. Splitting would help?

I dont want anyone to change my code or import or read my code..I am not sure what is possible..Could someone please tell me how I can do that?
Thanks.
Does anyone know if it is possible to send an email when a button is clicked?
