Hi.. Been trying to work this out for a little while now. I run an IT workshop for adults with learning issues and although my other office skils are pretty good, my Access skills are a little lacking.
My clients login and out on paper at the moment but I would like to change this to a database type system. The entries would only be name and an automatic one to record actual time of login.
Can anybody help me with the automatic entries?
Many thanks

Hi,
I want to make database only for time spent in office. In that database i want people to login and when they finish there work press logout. The table would consist nt username, time logged in and time logged out. This would enable time spent at work. When the person presses login it would stamp the time on the table along with the username.In this only check i want to enable is if the person presses login again then it says already logged in press logout. So no duplicate entrys in the database unless person first logs in and then logs out. I want to enable check before entering the data in the table. Attached is the database for further analysis. Please advise.
Thanks and Regards

I would like to create a simple login system for my db whereby users differentiated by approvers (people who approve PO forms) or preparers (people who prepare PO forms). The problem is, I do not know where to carry on after creating the form for login. How do I go about doing it? I have seen some samples but I do not really understand the code. Hope that someone will be able to guide me along. Thanks a million.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have access 2010, I currently have a database in place and operational. What I am wondering is there a way to have a form come up whenever someone opens access and asks for a password and login name. Also I would like to have a 2 tier system. One for Admins and the other for users with limited access.
Is this even possible to accomplish?
I have tried to make a login screen, I have also searched for information and tried some of the examples but, I just can't get one to work.
Is there someone or somewhere where I can get information on how to build one step by step in simple easy instructions....(access 2003).
Also, how do you get access to open all the windows, tables, queries etc in full screen mode.
I have expaneded them and shut it down and then reopened it but they still want to open out of full screen mode.
Thanks, everyone has been a great help in creating my first Access program.

Hi I am in need of help again.. Want to thank Ghudson for his help previously.
Now I am stuck in a stupid problem.
I have a log out button, but I cannot code up the button, where when I want to log out, it will automatically saves the record in a temporary database[auto generated] and it will date the database record on the day that i save.
I am using this [URL] .... in our project but have made a minor change so it logs people out rather than close Access completely. It works beautifully but I want to take it a step further.
Instead of hardcoding the times in these two values
intMinutesUntilShutDown = 10
intMinutesWarningAppears = 2
I'd like to give users the options to set these themselves as not everyone will be the same. I am thinking I would have to check for who is currently using the database, this is stored in a hidden form in the following field.
[Forms]![frmwhoson]![whoson]
This username matches the users First Name in table Employees and in this table I have two fields to store these values
logmeoutafter
showlogoutmessagefor
So passing these values for the current user rather than having the logout times hardcoded.
Dear all,
I have an application includes one table "info" and two forms "frmlogin" & "frmwelcome".
The table "info" contains many columns, two of them are [UserName] and [PassWord]. This table is filled with three records. "frmlogin" form contains two text boxes and one button. I want the user to enter user name and the password in those two text boxes, and when clicking the button, I want the application if that user is registered or no. If yes, he/she will be moved to the "frmwelcom", that display "Welcome [UserName]".
I did it, but I don't know where my error is.
See the attached file.
Sorry for bothering you.
Thanks & Regards

The VB code is like this
Option Compare Database
Private intLogonAttempts As Integer
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
'On open set focus to combo box
Me.cboEmployeeLogOn.SetFocus

Me.txtPassword.SetFocus
End Sub
Private Sub btnLogin_Click()
'Check to see if data is entered into the UserName combo box
If IsNull(Me.cboEmployeeLogOn) Or Me.cboEmployeeLogOn = "" Then
MsgBox "You must enter a User Name.", vbOKOnly, "Required Data"
Me.cboEmployeeLogOn.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
'Check to see if data is entered into the password box
If IsNull(Me.txtPassword) Or Me.txtPassword = "" Then
MsgBox "You must enter a Password.", vbOKOnly, "Required Data"
Me.txtPassword.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
'Check value of password in tblEmployees to see if this
'matches value chosen in combo box
If Me.txtPassword.Value = DLookup("EmployeePassword", "tblEmployee", "[EmployeeID]=" & Me.cboEmployeeLogOn.Value) Then
lngMyEmpID = Me.cboEmployeeLogOn.Value
'Close logon form and open splash screen
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmLogon", acSaveNo
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmMainMenu"
Else
MsgBox "Password Invalid. Please Try Again", vbOKOnly, "Invalid Entry!"
Me.txtPassword.SetFocus
End If
'If User Enters incorrect password 3 times database will shutdown
intLogonAttempts = intLogonAttempts + 1
If intLogonAttempts > 3 Then
MsgBox "You do not have access to this database.Please contact admin.", vbCritical, "Restricted Access!"
Application.Quit
End If
End Sub

Second if there is a way that I show the name of the Employee in the destination form by knowing his ID (passing the ID to the other form).
That’s all if any one can help please
I have built a login form which shows or hides all tool bars depending on the
user name and password. Can I also control the other permissons like being
able to edit forms and tables? I know I can do this using the MS Access
built in functionality, but can I do it programatically from my user login
screen.
I set the tool bar visibility, close the login form and open the main
switchboard using the "on click" button of my login form. Can the above
permissions controls be done here as well?
Thanks in advance.

hey,
can ne1 tell me how to create a User Login form in Access??? i want disply this form 1st, when i open the bd???? i am very new to Access. :)
thanks :) :)
I'm currently having issues with my login script on my opening form... it's supposed to close the application if it gets 3 failed attempts, but it's not closing... it just keeps giving me a popup and letting me type the password again. Here's the Code:
'Check to see if data is entered into the UserName combo box
If IsNull(Me.cboEmployee) Or Me.cboEmployee = "" Then
MsgBox "You must enter a User Name.", vbOKOnly, "Required Data"
Me.cboEmployee.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
'Check to see if data is entered into the password box
If IsNull(Me.txtPassword) Or Me.txtPassword = "" Then
MsgBox "You must enter a Password.", vbOKOnly, "Required Data"
Me.txtPassword.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
'Check value of password in tblEmployees to see if this
'matches value chosen in combo box
If Me.txtPassword.Value = DLookup("Password", "tblLogin", "[UserID]=" & Me.cboEmployee.Value) Then
lngMyEmpID = Me.cboEmployee.Value
'Close logon form and open splash screen
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmLogin", acSaveNo
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmMainMenu"
Else
MsgBox "Password Invalid. Please Try Again", vbOKOnly, "Invalid Entry!"
Me.txtPassword.SetFocus
End If
'If User Enters incorrect password 3 times database will shutdown
intLogonAttempts = intLogonAttempts + 1
If intLogonAttempts > 3 Then
MsgBox "You do not have access to this database. Please contact admin.", vbCritical, "Restricted Access!"
Application.Quit
End If
I have a login form which works fine, but I would like it so that when the caret is in the password field that if the user presses Enter it will do the loginBtn_Click event.
This is what I've tried so far...
Private Sub txtPassword_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
If KeyCode = vbkeyEnter Then
kecode = 0
loginBtn_Click
End If
End Sub
Any ideas or suggestions would be awesome.
how can I create login form that it opens on main form and if login successfully it closes and shows main form and if login unsuccessfully alert.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a multi user login form for my Access 2010 database. I will have 2 different types of users (administrator and staff). The administrator will be able to see all tables and forms and edit/ add to them. The staff will only be able to view a switchboard form and 2 forms (as well as using combo boxes to look up specific records). However, I don't want the staff to be able to view the tables or edit anything.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi Guys,
I am trying to set up a login form in my DB. I have followed the instructions from some of the previous posts on this site.
I have a table called tblUsers with 'UserId', 'UserName' and 'Password' as the fields. I also have two text boxes 'txtUserName', 'txtPassword' and a 'cmdLogin' command button on my form with the following code:
Private Sub cmdLogin_Click()
If IsNull(Me.txtUserName) Or Me.txtUserName = "" Then
MsgBox "You must enter a User Name.", vbOKOnly, "Required Data"
Me.txtUserName.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
'Check to see if data is entered into the password box
If IsNull(Me.txtPassword) Or Me.txtPassword = "" Then
MsgBox "You must enter a Password.", vbOKOnly, "Required Data"
Me.txtPassword.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
If Me.txtPassword.Value = DLookup("Password", "tblUsers", "[UserID]=" & Me.txtUserName.Value) Then
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmLogIn", acSaveNo
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmWorked"
Else
MsgBox "Password Invalid. Please Try Again", vbOKOnly, "Invalid Entry!"
Me.txtPassword.SetFocus
End If
End Sub
Unfortunately, this code is not working in my database (MS Access 2000). I think the error occurs on the line on which it checks the password against the stored password (If Me.txtPassword.Value = DLookup("Password", "tblUsers", "[UserID]=" & Me.txtUserName.Value) Then).
I get a Run-Time error'2471' message saying "The expression you entered as a query parameter produced this error: 'The object doesn't contain the Automation object for 'smith."
NB 'Smith' is the user name entered into the login form 'txtUserName' box.
Any idea why this may occur? I would be very grateful if you could let me know please.
Thanks alot for your time. And keep up the good work guys! :)
Kind regards,
Zaf
If the database sits dormant or unused for 10 minutes the login window needs to reappear for a possible new user.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a table called 'Klanten' which contains the rows 'password' and 'login' (and several rows not needed for this form)
So I'm trying to make a login form which first checks if something is entered (this part of the code seems to work).
Private Sub Knop13_Click()
'Check to see if data is entered into Username
If IsNull(Me.Username) Or Me.Username = "" Then
MsgBox "gelieve een login in te voeren.", vbOKOnly, "Required Data"
Me.Username.SetFocus
[Code] ....
But from then on i seem to have some issues.. The part of the code underneath seems to only work for the first 'login' and 'paswoord' in my table called "Klanten".
-Username is the name for the field where they enter their 'login'.
-Password is the name for the field where they enter their 'paswoord'
If Username.Value <> DLookup("[login]", "Klanten", "[Username]='" & Username & "'") Then
MsgBox "Invalid Username. Please try again.", vbOKOnly, "Invalid Entry!"
Exit Sub
End If
If Password.Value <> DLookup("[wachtwoord]", "Klanten", "[Password]='" & Password & "'") Then
MsgBox "Invalid Password. Please try again.", vbOKOnly, "Invalid Entry!"
Exit Sub
End If
Then as last part i would like to goto another form called 'Mainmenu' if both the Login and the Paswoord is correctly entered in the fields Username and Password. Here i have the most issues as this doesn't seem to do anything at the moment
If Password.Value = DLookup("[wachtwoord]", "Klanten", "[Username]='" & Username & "'") And Username.Value <> DLookup("[login]", "Klanten", "[Password]='" & Password & "'") Then DoCmd.OpenForm "Mainmenu"
End Sub
I have a fully functioning frmLogin that appears when the database opens. After correctly logging in, it takes you to the appropriate switchboard. The problem is that I set autokeys to allow F1 to automatically open the switchboard, but I don't want users to hit this to bypass my login screen. The reason for keeping the switchboard open is to force the user to close the database using the switchboard(eventually I want to limit the user to only the forms that I have created in a split database).
My other option that I tried first was writing a module that would detect when all forms are closed, then open the switchboard. But I kept getting Error91 and got frustrated/stopped attempting this method. Using the hotkey gives the user a similar functionality, but less conveniently so(since its not an automated process, etc.).
