Hi all,
I wrote a vba program which I couldnt get to work correctly, so I redid the whole thing in java and now I get the output I'm supposed to get. I'm wondering now if I can execute this java program from a button on my forum in access? and how should I do this if this is possible?
Thanks
I am making an application in Java and I want to use Access as the database.
I wanted to know if I had to handle record access or is this done automatically by Access.
for example, if one user is editing details for an employee and another user wants to access the same record, do I have to write the procedures to ensure that only one user can access this record or will this be hadled automatically by Access.:confused:
How to copy a table(both structure and data) during runtime using java programming.
Looking for equivalent access commands for the following sql commands.
1. create table newemp select * from emp;
2. alter table newemp add userAns int;
3. update newemp set userAns=0;
4. drop table newemp;
What is the proper way to store in a field if I want to store current date AND time as a timestamp. I chose Date/Time as the data type and General Date in the Format. Now I wanted a timestamp whenever a new row is added so I placed =Date() in the default value but it only shows me the date, not the time?
Second question if you know Java: I retrieve this date in a java.sql.date and .toString() shows me the correct result in the default format but when i use the DateFormat.format() method on it, i get a Null Pointer Exception. What could be the problem?
Is there a way to find version number of MS Access using java code.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI would like to place a button on a form that maps to a program on a user's computer. For example, the button says PROGRAM and then the user clicks on the button and it opens an executable located at c:PROGRAMprogram.exe
I am assuming that I can do that with access, but how?
Thanks for any help!
How do you use a button on a form to call another access program? We have 8 access programs that we want to be able to call from one form.
Thanks

Hello,
I once used a program, when you click this .mdb file, it opens a main Form interface that user can run programs such as view report etc. That is, all tables, querys reports, other forms are behind the sence (user does not need to know them).
Could anyone tell me how to do this? Thank you for yoru help.
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 RelatedI am trying to design a database for the company i work for, and I am wondering what is the best program to use.
My database will be shared on a network, and many different users will be using it at once. Also, I need this database to allow vpn connections so that certain people can access the db from outside of the office. I am not sure if db programs would deny a vpn user access, it might not make a difference how people are accessing info, but i think its worhtwile to mention that.
I appreciate your help, even though you opinions may be just a little biased. but thanks none-the-less.
Hi all!
I have created a database with auto-archiving features. I have "working tables" that are populated when the product is moved to the correct process, in this case when it reaches the test department. When the product is moved out of the relevant process, the database runs several queries which archive the relevant data and deletes the records from the working table.
There are two working tables in the test department, one for test failures and one for rework activities. The question at hand is WHEN should I populate the working table for rework activities:
Option 1: Populate the table when the product moves to the relevant process. This will create and delete thousands of records from the working table every day. Using this method will cause my table to bloat to 50,000+ records that are constantly updated, appended, and deleted.
Option 2: Populate the table when (and IF) the product fails a test. This will keep the table to a much smaller size (around 2500 records) but requires the database to run several queries in the middle of the data entry process, significantly slowing my program.
So which is the faster/better process: Filtering a table of 50,000+ records or appending the working table when you need the data?
Hi,
I have a delimma and am not sure how to proceed. It falls under the "You want what? When?" category. Basically, I have created an Access program with several (13) related tables and numerous forms. This program mimics an interview we are using for research and has a lot of VBA coding behind it with quite a few skip patterns, value checking, etc. During the testing phase, I was asked to allow the user to be able to go back and check a response to any previous answer at any given point in time. I hear numerous clicks of people running away from this question. This one has me frustrated and not too happy. I am wondering if there is some way I can show a copy of any form and the data contained within it for the present ID? IF it is a copy then the data, I presume would be locked and the user would not be able to change it. Also, I would want to bring the user back to the point where they were prior to going backwards. Feel my pain yet? Of course as I ponder this I can envision that they are going to want to change a value, because maybe a respondent "changed their mind" about a previous question. But, I am sure they would not want to work their way back to where they were, but want to jump back (forward), all the while I need to insure that any skip patterns that may have changed due to a change in data are followed and if a question that was answered before is now skipped then that data needs to be cleaned. I am concerned that as I begin to meander through this issue that I will have "duplicate ID" issues because as I move backward, possibly through several forms and tables and then move forward again the DB will think I am adding two items rather than changing the one. I.e., it will think I have two identical IDs because it already has one from the original pass and as it moves forward and runs through the automated saves that the second pass would represent a duplicate ID, thus crashing the program.
I know this is a multi-pronged question, but I would like to hear some suggestions as to how others with more experience would handle this. I am grateful for your time in reading this and would be even more so for any responses.
Peace!
I have a bunch of files where I have to copy one piece of data from a field and paste it into a different field on many records...in sort copy once, paste many times. Currently I use Ctrl C for copy and Ctrl V for paste. I'd write a query to do this for me, but not every record is going to recieve the data.
I'm getting tired of having to press Ctrl V on the appropriate records. Is there way to program a function key to do the Ctrl V thing? That way, I'd only have to press one key as opposed to pressing two keys.
Any help offered is truly appreciated. Thanks!!
Following program i have written in access. what it does is from the query i have created picks up the sizes of doors. calculates hit1 by qty then it needs to put the value into another table alongside the correct sizes. the problem im facing is how do i update the value into another table. heres the listing.
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Dim Db As Database
Dim Rs1 As Recordset
Dim Rs2 As Recordset
Dim lf, rh, drw1, drw2, drw3, drw4 As String
Dim q1, q2, q3, q4, q5, q6, qty As Integer
Dim hit1, hit2, hit3, hit4, hit5, hit6 As Integer
Private Sub Command70_Click()
Dim rs1fieldcount As Integer
Dim counter As Integer
''Assign a mdb
''+++++++++++++++
Set Db = CurrentDb
counter = 0
Set Rs1 = Db.OpenRecordset("custdoorsize")
Set Rs2 = Db.OpenRecordset("cusdoorsbase", dbOpenDynaset)
rs1fieldcount = Rs1.Fields.Count
If Rs2.RecordCount = 0 Then
MsgBox "No record found in query"
Else
this is where the value will come from
Do Until Rs2.EOF
If Rs2.Fields!left_door_size <> Empty Then
lf = Rs2.Fields!left_door_size
hit1 = 1
q1 = hit1 * Rs2.Fields!qty
End If

This is where it finds the correct sizes where it will display the qty value

I am using Microsoft Developer and wish to email the program to my customer. With Developer, there are tons of files and a few folders, not just one exe. I realize I must zip to send a exe, but the folders are a problem, since WinZip, which is what I have, will not accept the folders, only files. I could ship like that but it would be a mess on my customer's end. Any suggestion would be helpful.
The reason I want to send this way is just for speed. Of course I can copy to CD and send that way.

I have a database made in MS Access. It has forms that allow the user to do certain things, such as add to the database, and so on. I only want the user to be able to run a program that will run the one, main form i've created it (as well as any other form that the main for lnks to). how do I do this?
View 14 Replies View RelatedHello. I have tried using the search function on the board but I cannot find an answer.
Is it possible to create an executable program to run the database?
I would like to have a computer that does not have Access installed, to be able to load and run the user interface that allows them to manipulate the database, as well as write to it. It doesn't matter if the tables are encrypted or not.
Thanks for your time.
EDIT: It appears that after writing this post, I realized I hadn't used the search term "executable." I found an answer here (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showpost.php?p=586646&postcount=2).
hi,
whenever i key in some data into a form i will transfer the data into a table.
whenever i want to change some data in the form i will delete all the records in the table and re-add all the data from form into the table.
the abv method works. however, i find that it is not effiencent because it every time delete all the records and re-add in records.
how shall i code the program to make it only edit/delete the specific records only instead bulk delete and bulk add?
refer to (program.zip)
Private Sub cmdSaveFltQpi_Click()
Dim Db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim sql As String
Dim f As Form
Dim i As Integer

Set Db = CurrentDb()
Call DeleteRecords 'delete all the previous records
sql = "SELECT * FROM [tblFltQpiMonthly] Where tblFltYear = " & f.cboFltQpiYear
For i = 1 To 12 'transfer the data from form to table
Set rs = Db.OpenRecordset(sql)
If rs.RecordCount >= 0 Then

I'm just wondering if anyone has made a very advanced budget management program using just access?? I tried to make one for myself but I just want it to advanced for my little knowledge of access. I would love to be able to keep track of all my expenses including everything bought from groceries to hair cuts. I would love to be able to take my receipt from walmart and enter everything bought and the price for each item. Then I would love to be able to at anytime search for soap and thing with soap in the Item name will be displayed with the location and the date and price. This way I can keep track not just what I spend on groceries but what I spend on mountain dew or what i spend on hamburger in a given time. This is just way to complicated for me! I hope someone can help me out here maybe give me a shell and let me try to fill in certain parts or if someone already has one that works kind of like this maybe i could just change a few things to the way i want it! I really appreciate this!!

I'm, pretty sure the answer to this is a resounding NO, but I thought I'd try it anyway.
I have an AutoID field that records the record number which I then use as a "CaseNo" in the database to track the progress through the system.
Is it possible to program this AutoId to include the year? That is CaseNo 1 would become CaseNo 2005/1.
It would also help to start at 1 again for the first case entered in 2006.
Thanks for any assistance.
Before I start on this seemingly endless journey of learning Access 2003, I thought it appropriate to ask the question;
Will this program do what I need it to do?
I apologise in advance if this is not the right place to ask the question, I am a complete beginner to Access 2003.
I want to make an electronic log book for the guys at work, there are 5 people of different trades who would need to keep the log.
A typical entry would be as follows
Mon 22/3/06 Alan Smith B Shift
Compressor house (heading)
No 1 compressor (plant)
Oil pump (component)
Filter cleaned (action taken)
Personel (heading)
John Jones (personel)
Phoned in sick at 15:00hrs, will phone tomorrow to update
Boiler house (heading)
No 4 boiler (plant)
Water vlave leak (problem)
Tightened gland (action taken)
There are many headings, probably hundreds of plant, thousands of components and actions taken
We would need to view events to particular plant or areas between certain dates, some personel would need to enter data, some would only view the data without being able to enter it, few would need to alter the data.
Is Access 2003 capable of this, should I start the journey?

Hello all!
Please forgive me for being a COMPLETE novice at Access, but I am trying!
What I need to do, is have an ordered list, which has check boxes along side each item.
When the relevant items have been checked, I need to be able to save or export to CSV, with ONLY the items which have been checked!!
I need the list to be pulled from a seperate source (like an excel spreadsheet) so that it can be updated easily...
Can anyone help?
so...
Item 1 [X]
Item 2 [ ]
Item 3 [ ]
Item 4 [X]
Item 5 [ ]
Item 6 [X]
would produce a CSV file:
Item 1, Item 4, Item 6,
Simple enough?
Greetings:
I am looking for a program that will repair a MsAccess 2000 .mdb file. So far all I have been able to find is those that repair the tables, does anyone know of a program that will repair the entire file including the forms?
Thanks

well i am trying to make a very simple program that would help me learn the capitals of each country. yes it is a weird thing to do but i just it might help.
anyway i started doing it using access and made a table with three columns primary key number, country and capital.
I started making a form and im tryin to make it so the program would randomly pick a country and i would have to choose from a list box the capital and i would have a command button which when i click will tell me if i am right or not and if i am not then it would say the right capital.
How should i do this?
p.s ino the basics of using the code builder
help much appreciated.
