What Happened? Switched Servers

Oct 14, 2004

I have a database that consists of one server.mdb which houses the tables and a folder called users with an individual folder with a copy of client.mdb for each person (This helps see whos on and whos not). The server is in the networks root directory and the clients are in a users/name/ I just moved these files from a windows 2000 server to the linux server and now only one person can access the database at a time - The Microsoft Jet Database Engine cannot findopen file VET/tier2/server.mdb someone has the file opened up exclusively or you need permission to view the data. Nothing has changed other than the network path and I relinked the tables and compacted and repaired both the server and the client.

Help!

PS i switched from WindowsNT to Linux Server

The Most Weird Thing Just Happened ... Please Help... Thanks!

Feb 7, 2006

have a table call 'ClinicTimeTable' there is a column call 'ClinicDate', another column called 'DrID', different row could have same 'ClinicDate' and 'DrID', so I wanna to count how many Drs in a particular day, I have following code, but it acts so werid, it onlys work for some dates! say if I put 02/02/2006 then I can get the number of DrID by observing 'count', however, if I put 01/02/2006 like below, count is 0! but there is some records with 02/02/2006 (I open the table directly in Access), how can this happening? how can it only partly works? it will make more sense if it don't work at all.

Dataset ds = new Dataset();
query = "SELECT DISTINCT DrID FROM ClinicTimeTable WHERE ClinicDate = #01/02/2006#" ;
OleDbDataAdapter myAdapter = new OleDbDataAdapter( query, oleDbConnection1 );
myAdapter.Fill ( ds );
int count = dds.Tables[0].Rows.Count;

any helps will be so appreciated! I am going mad at this problem!



by the way, i just tested that if any day in Jan 2006 is fine, say if i search 23/02/2006 or 22/02/2006 is fine... can't imagine why...

What's Happened To The Switchboard Option

Sep 7, 2004

Hi

I'm working in Access 2000 and when I go to tools and then Add-ins to try and get a switchboard, it doesn't give me that option - only "add-in manager" which is blank. Does anyone know if I'm doing something wrong ?

Thanks

On My Form Day/month/year Has Switched

Oct 20, 2006

On my form day/month/year has switched to year/month/day. On a table there are three separate date cells. Order Date, Shipping Date, and Report Date. They are each formated to medium style. At first I also used an input mask then I found that Access would convert to the format I choose. I had missed one of the input masks during the removal and when I removed the last input mask Access now converts to yy/mmm/dd. What just happened and how do I reverse this? It is more convienant for some of the users to not have the input mask but the order has to be uniform.

Forms :: Field On Form Not Refreshing Until Tab Is Switched

Feb 12, 2014

I've got a form built on a tab control. The form is a sales order form with multiple tabs. One of the tabs is used to enter shipping information and cost. The problem I'm having is:

A field I have added to this tab which is a stored total of the sales order total plus the shipping charge is not showing up after I enter the shipping charge until I switch tabs and return back to the shipping tab.

It's been a while since I've dealt with these refreshing problems. Which event is happening when a tab control is switched so I can call it to trigger my field total?

Btw, the shipping information on that tab is a subform.

Distribute DB To Many Servers

Jul 7, 2005

I have developed a db (A2K) which will be distibuted through our companies franchising system to various licensees. These licensees generally operate in a single PC environment but occasionally they will be based on a server network. The single user is fine but I am stumped by the server situation as it impacts on the various links I have set up within the database to files etc that are part of the program but are external such as Excel, Word files. The current links are all set up as C:MainFolderNameFilename. Of course these all stop working when I place it on a server and link the users up via shortcuts. On our own installation I changed the links to the \MyServerMainFolderNameFilename format and everythings fine but due to the number of links this is a fairly lengthy process and I wouldn't want to have to repeat it at every clients installation.

Can any one please advise me if there is a way to set it up so that I could say enter the clients server name in a field. Then insert that field's contents into the pathway details for the links so that they all update automatically.

Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Tables In Multiple Servers.

Sep 19, 2006

I have a multiuser database where the tables are split from the rest of the database and is being used by three locations. That portion works fine, BUT the traffic makes it horribly slow to the end user. The servers are located in Dallas and both east and west coast users access the information. Just doing updates makes me tense!! So I duplicated each database and positioned them on each locations home based server. Runs great no problems....But the information needed for work and reports is now written to 3 databases all with different server names. ( I realize this is more of a network issue but there is no way around it) My issue is that I need to get to that data from all three locations and combine them so that it can be worked and reported on....THEN sent back to the database from which it came. I tried to build a macro that would go to each database, retrieve the information into one server location but when I put the path name in it defaults to my local database rather than the one I am pointing the path to. Anyone have any ideas on making this happen?

Servers,forms And Auto#

Jul 24, 2006

guys i need some quidance...

i have a server setup that i need some help with

i have a database file that holds 1 inventory table.

Then i have 2 other database files that represent 2 retail stores.

my problem is that the store files have a form which acts like a sales invoice. The sales order number is an autonumber. this worked fine in the past with local network setups, but now going to a server the issue is that the sales order numbers cannot be the same from one store to the other. Since its related to the inventory table it steals the invoice from one store to the other..

i tried formatting the autonumbers differently.. like /100 on one and /3000 on the other. And they are still the same autonumber anyway.. the format doesnt mean much other than a different display..

is there a way to control the auto numbers to be in a specified range of numbers...

i would like to be able to say for store 1 the sales order numbers can only be from 1000-5000 and store 2 6000-9000...

is it not possible with autonumbers?

ho can i do this?

Modules & VBA :: Sending Message To Users Logged Into DB On Different Servers?

Jul 23, 2013

I have some code that when a check box in a table is ticked, sends a pop up message to the users logged in (message is on a hidden form), then it closes the DB after a pre-dtermined period of time.

The problem I'm having is that we are a large site with a about 25 differnet servers that our users log onto via Citrix, when a user is on a different server it isn't displaying the message nor closing the DB down.

trying to achieve this? Or is there a better way to see who is logged in and get a message to them?

I'm using Access 2003 btw

Code I'm using below

Code:
Option Compare Database
Private Sub Form_Load()
Me.TimerIntderval = 10000 ' change to 300000 for about 5 minutes
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Timer()
DoCmd.Close
Application.Quit
End Sub
