Does anyone know if it's possible to use the records stored in an Access 2002 database to log users into an ASP.net page? I'm trying to code it in vb.net but im not sure how it could be done. Basically I think I need 2 text boxes on the ASP page where the user can enter their name and password. I then somehow need to retrieve the name and password from fields in the database (using ADO.net i think) and compare them with those entered by the user. If they match then I want to load another page, and if not then I want to display a message saying login details are incorrect.
Any help on this subject would be much appreciated- the fields i have at the moment are called 'User' and 'Password' in a table called PERSON.
Is there a way in Access to logout users from a database in order to make updates without having to setup a FE/BE situation? My company is using Novell Client 4.90.0.0 SP1a. I have read some logs where you choose File --> Open (exclusive), but I do not have that option (using Access 2000). Any other thoughts?
I have a database set up that utilizes the user level security offered by Access. So basically everyone logs into the database, entering their user name and password.
Is there a way that I can log the currentuser() to a table when they sign in? And is it possible to assign a time stamp as well?
I have a form from which people view records out of a db. I would like to log the date/time and the key record they view into a table The usage table has a date/time field & a string field for the viewed record.
I can run an append query to update the Usage table but can't figure out how to get the date/time into the table ?
Is it easier to write the whole lot out to a file ?
Just a question, I am developing a database for the company I work for and being new to Access, I have successfully made a login menu when the database starts up. The employee selects there name and begins data entry. Is there any way to log the activity of each employee, which records they inputted, date and time and so on?
I have an access 2010 web database, modified from a microsoft template (Desktop inventory database) that several users will need to log in to. The database contains a table of products.
The challenge is, every user needs to only see a subset of these products and never see the whole list.
At the moment i have some code to modify an existing query based on the logged in user's details. As they log in, some tempvars are created and these are used to modify the query criteria.
This works well when the first user logs in, but the moment the next user logs in, the query is modified again and the product list refreshes and now his products are shown and not the first users! Im thinking i need to dynamically create a permanent query for each user on log in?
Here is my code so far:
Button on login form has the following code that collects the user's details
Code: Private Sub cmdLoginMine_Click() Dim ID as long, strEmpName as string,strZondsc as string,strgrpdsc as string ID = DLookup("ID", "Employees", "Login='" & Me.txtUser.Value & "'") strEmpName = DLookup("FullName", "Employees", "Login='" & Me.txtUser.Value & "'") strgrpdsc = DLookup("MyGrpdscs", "Employees", "Login='" & Me.txtUser.Value & "'") strzondsc = DLookup("MyZondscs", "Employees", "Login='" & Me.txtUser.Value & "'") TempVars.Add "tmpEmployeeID", ID TempVars.Add "tmpEmployeeName", txtUser.Value
I then call a function that modifies the existing query, populating it with this users details for the criteria
Code: qryEdit strgrpdsc, strzondsc, ID Sub qryEdit(strgrpdsc As String, strzondsc As String, ID As Long) Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef Dim qdfOLD As String Set qdf = CurrentDb.QueryDefs("InventoryQryforDS")
[Code] ....
The results of the query are shown on a form, which is what is currently requerying and showing the wrong data. The data is shown on a form, linked to one of the new style navigation buttons as shown.There cord source property of the form is the query that's populated as described above.
I was wondering if there is a simple way to check if any changes have been made to a record when the form is closed because I would like to create a log of records that were changed. I'm sure I could create some variables to store the fields when the form is opened then check if they're still the same when the form closes, but I figured there's probably already a built-in way of doing this (since the undo button must obviously use it)
I am trying to output the following code to a log file. What I am trying to do is when a user opens the database and the switchboard opens up it logs the user to a log file. The code works fine when run from the modules section providing I leave the DoCmd.Output command out. Any thoughts on what I am doing wrong here. This is my code.
Sub ShowUserRosterMultipleUsers() Dim cn As New ADODB.Connection Dim rs As New ADODB.Recordset Dim i, j As Long
Set cn = CurrentProject.Connection
' The user roster is exposed as a provider-specific schema rowset ' in the Jet 4.0 OLE DB provider. You have to use a GUID to ' reference the schema, as provider-specific schemas are not ' listed in ADO's type library for schema rowsets
Set rs = cn.OpenSchema(adSchemaProviderSpecific, _ , "{947bb102-5d43-11d1-bdbf-00c04fb92675}")
'Output the list of all users in the current database.
I am trying to implement a username and password system on my DB. What I have done so far is created a table with username, password, permission level and datestamp. So when the db is opened, the form pops up and someone has to sign in. When they hit the 'login' button, there is a field that will populate the time in which they signed in. This will also allow me to see who is logged in. When they are finished, they will end up on the login screen where there is a close button. When they hit the close button, the field with the datestamp will be cleared. This will allow me to know that the user is no longer on the db. Here comes the question, if a user just closes access without hitting my 'close' button, my datestamp field will not be cleared. I have tried using the "onclose" event, but of course i used 'me.datestamp = "" but the form is already closed, so it says 'can not change the value of this field.' How can i clear the value of the datestamp field for a specific user when a user closes the program the "improper" way.
I am trying to add the name of the employee show up in on the opening form after logging into the database. I am able to get the user right (Admin only), but not the name. In the Default Value in Properties, I have it set to =CurrentUser() and I have the Employee field in the Control Source to record current user.
How can I make this so it indicate the user logged in?
i am currently developing a database what i need to do is to restrict user to view selected record and change them. i have build a login form in which i have two areas as a user name in combobox and a password text box. i have another form in which i have a combo box named area what i need to do is to limit the area combo based on the selection of the user login form previously. for example if a user select LAS VEGAS in user combo and enters its password after clicking the button login the another form appears in which thier respective stores and sales are saved, their is a combo box named area in which i want to limit it by LAS VEGAS i mean it would only show LAS VEGAS in drop down based on the previous selection in login form.
The past couple of days my database has been doing some very strange things and I am wondering if there are just too many records to search through in a query.
First of all I keep my data in a separate file from the queries and reports and link the two databases together. (not sure if that even matters but thought it was worth a mention)
The problem happens when running a query, for example: I ran an existing query to pull in specific email addresses based on location. Instead the results were phone numbers, but the header said it was the email field.
I was able to fix it by running the compact and repair database function but it keeps happening but at random times. What may be causing this?
Any insight would really be appreciated. I'm a self taught database manager so haven't necessary learned all the tricks.
I work in a hospital where each ward has its own identical but UNLINKED staff database. I wanted to make a single database but the management was adamant that for confidentiality they should each be standalone. I lost this argument!
Data is stored in 7 tables: Identity, annual leave, sick leave, qualifications, etc.
Too late, someone has realised that staff may transfer from one ward to another, so the whole record needs to be transferred. What's the best way to do this?
So far the process I have come up with is: Choose the person you wish to export from the source database Run 7 queries to export the records from the various tables e.g. to Excel Create linked tables in the target database to pick up these records Run import queries.
I set up a macro to run the 7 export queries, using the "OutputTo" action and specifying .xls for the output format. But the files created don't appear to be readable by Access. In Explorer, they only have the Windows icon and are just "files".
Does anyone know a better way to tackle this problem?
I have an old database, which is very comprehensive, filled with client names, addresses, and other information.
I have been given a new database, which is more relational and effectient, which splits the client addresses into a seperate table.
I need to add the old data to the new database - so is there a way of doing this whilst maintaining the links between the old addresses and the rest of the old data? What I don't want to have to do is end up going through 3000+ entries sorting out what new CompanyID I should assign...
I have been trying to figure out how to do this and the transferdatabase function wouldn't do what I needed. I have a table that has a bunch of records, each being a request for cad work somebody wants me to do. I change the status of each one to pending, working, or complete. Anyway I want to only keep the completed task records in the database for 90 days. After that the records will be exported to an archive database and purged from the working database. The problem I face is not getting the records I need “I used date stamps ;)” but getting the records I filtered to append the archive database table and not overwrite it. I made backups ;) of my db and am testing on those and cant figure this out. Below is the code I used to export. Like I said it overides the table rather than append...
DoCmd.TransferDatabase acExport, "Microsoft Access", _ "X:Archive.mdb", acTable, "tRequest", _ "tRequest" MsgBox "its done" Any ideas, pointers, stern words and a link to a post I missed, anything to help is appreciated. :o Thanks, Eric
Is there a way to have a query pull all of the table names within a database and display the number of records in each table? The names, number of tables in the database, an number of records within each table will always be changing, which is why I wanted to use a Query to pull the information.
I have already tapped into the MSysObjects table to retrive the Table names (via a Query), I am however stumped on how I am going to display each tables record count. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I have a form which a user selects an activity from a combo box. On some occasions a user may need to enter the same activity a number of times. I want to add a text box/combo box that a user can enter or select a number. When the user hits the submit button i want the records created in the database to match the number specied fied in the text/combo boxes.
I think i may need to use an INSERT statement but totally confused how to do this.
I am trying to create a page that can display 4 different records from a database, each one in a different div container, for a news page.
I have an access database containing news records - headline, news and date. Each record also has its own auto-numbered ID.
So far I have managed to get the asp page to display all of the records in a list by using:
recordset.movenext Loop
and I have managed to get just 1 displayed by using:
SQL = "SELECT * FROM tblNews WHERE ID=1" and changing the ID number.
But I can't seem to find a way to display each in a different div container on the same page. Can anyone help please? I think this is really obvious but I just can't see it!
I'm trying to add a record to the members table in the access database located at c:dbmyforum.mdb. So I looked it up and did a copy and paste from an example, and edited it to match what i need. here's what I've got:
Code:<html><body><%set conn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")conn.Provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"conn.Open "c:/db/myforum.mdb"sql="INSERT INTO Members (SN,Password,)"sql=sql & " VALUES "sql=sql & "('" & Request.Form("sn") & "',"sql=sql & "'" & Request.Form("pw") & "')"on error resume nextconn.Execute sql,recaffectedif err<>0 then Response.Write("No update permissions!")else Response.Write("<h3>" & recaffected & " record added</h3>")end ifconn.close%></body></html>
But it keeps coming back with errors. What am I doing wrong? I'm sure that the info from the form is going through, and I've checked the sql several times, although I'm not sure about the vb script cause I'm new to asp(trying to learn it now).
I'd like to be able to show recruiters the database as an example of my work (to get an interview, etc.). Of course, I can't just show them a copy of the database with all of the private information on it, so I'd like to be able to show them a copy of the database with no records. Is there a way to export/copy it so I can do this in Access 2007?
I have a split database with the back end on a sharedrive. I have the front end saved on my own drive and the same for my colleague.
When I view the front end version of my colleagues, I can see a records on there that she has input but I can't see them when I open my own copy of the front end plus when I view the back end I can't see the records there at all.
