Tables Read-Only

Apr 16, 2007

I believe I may have asked this question before but…

I have a FE/BE database. Is there a way to set the tables as “read only”? I’d like the FE to be read only, but allow users to see all the tables, not just forms etc. However, if they open the BE, they would have full control.

Thanks,
SKK

Allow Combo To Read From 2 Tables

Apr 8, 2006

Ok, what i have is a form on which a user has an Option Group for selection on which records are shown (consumable and Non-consumable), also on the form is a combo box which reads from Table Asset Categories. However what i want to do is allow this combo box to read from another table depending on which option is selected in the Option Group. ie change its Table and row source, but i can't figure this out. I thought something in the region of:

If Me.OptionGroup = 0 then recordsource = "Asset Categories"
Else RecordSource = "Consumable Categories"
End IF

Any Help Please

Queries :: Database For Log Activity - Delete Only Appended Records

Nov 3, 2014

I have a database that is used by managers to log activity of staff. We wanted to allow staff to write to the DB, but not allow them full access. We decided to accomplish this by adding a VBA function to an Excel sheet that they already use every day. It allows them to select a description, start time and end time and writes records to a database containing just 1 table.

The database used by the managers periodically runs an append query, and then a delete query to update with details of entries made by staff, and then clear the table to avoid duplicates during the next append.

I'm sure those of you with experience can already guess what's been happening and are shaking your head right now. It seems like entries made while the append query is running are being deleted when the delete query runs. So potentially I append 4 records, but delete 6 as 2 new entries were made before the delete query ran.

Is there a way to delete only the records that have just been appended? Or is there a more acceptable way of achieving this without using a delete query?

Need Help With Updating Number In Tables (read Post For More Info)

Sep 13, 2007

I am new to Access, so bear with me.

I am using Access 2007.

I have 4 tables created, and they are breaking out information for recording files that are being created from a PBX.
The tables are created as thus:

tbl_1
Key:ext_id | extension

tbl_2
Key:loc_id | location

tbl_3
Key:f-type_id | filetype


tbl_4
Key: mass_id | filename | date | loc_id | ext_id | f-type_id


Now I have created the relationships between the tables for the various ID's. My issue is the following:

I will be automating this process, so when the data is imported to the various tables, I need the relevant keys from tbl_1 tbl_2 and tbl_3 to be added to tbl_4 when the new data is brought into the tables.

As to the process of importing the data, I was looking at using PHP to facilitate this. Any ideas, help or direction would be greatly appreciated. I have looked around the net for an idea of how to solve this, but, being so new, I am not exactly sure how to word the question.


Thanks!

Now how do i import these data to a table into respective fields in a table.

Tables :: Password Protect A Linked Table Or Make It Read Only

Nov 14, 2012

I have a table that I imported from another database. I used import Access - Link to the table source by creating a linked table. - then downloaded in my database.

I want to use the linked table to create relationships and forms but do not want to even accidently edit it. The table gets updated in the database on a weekly bases and I am hoping it gets updated automatically in my database as well. does it automatically get updated or do i have to set up something?

Also, I want to protect the data in that particular table and either password protect it or make it read only. Can I do that? If so, how?

Read Only In Access? Is It Possible?

Mar 21, 2005

My Access database is situated in a folder which has permissions to only let some people write into it.

The problem is that we would like users with read access to open the database to view but get the following error:

Couldnt use ...path... File already in use.

The database always has more than one user in it so this may be the root of the error message.

Solutions which cannot be implemented are moving the DB to a higher folder or giving write access to this folder to the read-only users.

Thanks in advance for any ideas.

MS Access Read Only Prompt

Jul 11, 2005

I am using windows XP SP2, Office 2003.

I have created a database to store information from a mine site. I have set up a switch board and most users will just view reports or graphs that have already been designed.

I want the general users to open the file read only without having to open access and use the open read only command. I also don't want to go down the path of database security if it can be helped.

I read in the help page that there is a read only prompt that can be flashed up when the file is opened. Unfortunatly the help page suggests, Tools > Options > Security Tab (tick read only prompt). In office 2003 this option no longer exists (if it ever did)

Any ideas, would be good if i could add something to the shortcut and then have some uses use this shortcut.

Thankyou
