Too Many Client Tasks
May 4, 2005
Hi,
we use access for localisation in our application. The business object which accessess the access uses DAO connectivity and we often land to
"Too many client tasks" problem.
is it wise to change the DAO to ADO? if so the above problem will go off?
what are the chances that the problem still persists?
is that access has any limits on the number of connections? like 64, 255? or is that ADO/DAO has any limitaions on the number of concurrent connections to access DB?
Pls help, your help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Venkat.

Hi all
Brand new on here and desparate for some help and guidence.
So far with Access I have just used it as a store of addresses to mailshot prospective clients.
However, I now need a more complex database and this is where you might be able to help.
First things first, most of my clients are in universities. This means that I can be used by more than one person in more than one department at a university.
Does this mean I need to do three tables:
1/ "University Details" which gives the address details
2/ "Department" storing the departments of the unis we work for
3/ "Client" Name of the client(s) in that department.
After this how do I link them?
Thanks

I am just starting to use Access and have set up many simple forms, datasheets, reports, summaries, etc. I have not worked with macros, etc. and need help for this project. I have set up a task table
F1 - DateOfCall - date - now()
F2 - Client - text
F3 - DateCompleted - date
F4 - DueDate - date
F5 - problemDescription - memo
F6 - Resolution - memo
I need to run a query and/or report every week summarizing what has been done the past week. Would also like to view previous weeks. I need help. How do I go about doing this.

The timetracker that I am building stores the history of the task in multiple rows. Here's a simplified view.
Task ID | Assignor ID | Assignee ID | Description | Status
1 | 5 | 10 | I could not make this change. Please try at your end | assigned
1 | 10 | 2 | I made this change. Please check it. | resolved
1 | 2 | 10 | Please make a few modifications. | assigned
1 | 10 | 2 | Done. | resolved
1 | 10 | 10 | Cool. You're in for a raise! | closed
If i want to select task histories of tasks which are not closed, i.e. the status in the last record is not set to closed, how would i go about doing it? As of now I am doing this through code, where I cycle through the recordset and skip displaying the rows if the task has been closed. But I'm sure there's an easier way of doing this.
Any help will be appreciated.

Hi,
I am still confuse after reading threads on producing running sum on queries. help!
This query is to produce a time line graph of Progress Tasks with 3 main categories - New, Completed and Outstanding. So I got months on the x-axis and count on the Y-axis.
sample data.
say we look back for jobs in the month in feburary
Date Added; Date Completed ; category
11/1 ; NIL ; Outstanding
11/1 ; 1/3 ; Outstanding
11/1 ; 14/2 ; Completed
1/2 ; NIL ; Outstanding
1/2 ; 1/3 ; New and Outstanding
1/2 ; 14/2 ; New and Completed
so the total count of the categories for Feburary
New = 2 ,Completed= 2, Outstanding=4
can anyone help?

I'm creating a fairly basic case management system in Access 2007 and i'm wanting a way of populating a set of tasks when a case is created...
e.g.
I have a case table, which contains basic information about the case, case manager, ID, date created etc.
I've also got a task table with a list of tasks
When i create a new case I want it to pull in the list of tasks from the task table, the tasks are static so i wouldnt want them to update the task table but update progress on the tasks against the case.
Do i need another table for like casetasks where it populates the blank tasks and then they're updated with an ID linked back to the Case.

I would like to make an action list based on tasks. I try to make a query that does the following things:
-Taken.Priority=1
-show maxium 5 tasks sorted on make date(taken.ingevoerd)
-OR with a total duration of maxium 480 minutes (Taken.[Geschatte duur (min))
The last one is to hard for me to make. For example if the duration of 4 tasks is 420 minutes, the fifth task (100 min) should not be shown, because the criteria of maximum amout of minutes is reached.This is what I have made so far:
SELECT DISTINCT TOP 5 Taken.ID, Taken.Omschrijving, Taken.Ingevoerd, Taken.Deadline, Taken.Priority, Taken.[Geschatte duur (min)]
FROM Taken
GROUP BY Taken.ID, Taken.Omschrijving, Taken.Ingevoerd, Taken.Deadline, Taken.Priority, Taken.[Geschatte duur (min)]
HAVING (((Taken.Priority)=1))
ORDER BY Taken.Ingevoerd DESC;

I have been searching the web for a solution to this problem. I have created a scheduled task on Windows 7 to automatically run a macro from a command line, however, it seems to only run when the user is logged onto the machine. Is there a way to run Access without the interactive logon? I would rather not leave the machine logged in with this account, but if that is the only solution, so be it.

I need the ability to assign employees to a different task in each of four different timeslots on a daily basis. What I would like to do is as I assign an employee to a task in timeframe 1, I would like for them to become unavailable to assign to another task in the same timeframe.
For Example: Three employees to assign to three tasks at the 8 AM to 10 AM time slot.
Employee
Task
Time
Assigned
Emp 1, Emp 2, Emp 3
Task 1
8 AM to 10 AM
Emp 2-Task 1
Emp 1, Emp 3
Task 2
8 AM to 10 AM
Emp 3-Task 2
Emp1
Task 3
8 AM to 10 AM
Emp1-Task 3
It would be nice to set this up in a form where my person doing the scheduling can assign an individual to a task and that individual name disappears from the combo boxes, list boxes, or is "greyed-out" in a listing of employees available for the time period for the remaining assignments.

I'm working on a scheduling system for my fathers company that automates some redundant tasks. Most importantly the system manages the order of processes on different parts (ie, part "tubes" may be cut, then drilled, then welded, then shipped).
I'm trying to create a form that allows for the editing and viewing of all the parts and the processes for each part for a specific work Order. Ideally the information that applies to all the parts (Work order Number, due date etc) would appear at the top of the form with all of the processes to appear beneath (Separated into groups - all the parts to be welded shown together). My problem with using sub forms for this was that I need all the records to be shown without scrolling. Is there a way to dynamically change the size of each Subform to match the required size, or is there a better feature to use?

I want to count the number of tasks by department by week. I need the time so my date the task was added is formated as a date/time.
I created a query and added the department (twice so that I can group and count), and transaction date. I clicked on totals and added the count function under the department. I added this criteria to the task date: between [start date] and [end date].
Problem is that it's grouping by day and each one is different because all times are different. How do I group these by day and not time?

Hello, I am new to this forum and hope someone will be able to help me.
I understand that when querying using a split MS Access database it retrieves all the data to the client machine and then applies the criteria (hope this is correct) at the client side.
If I were to link to Oracle XE tables via ODBC, does a query using these linked tables still bring across all the records to the client or will it run the query on the server and just bring down the records matching that criteria?
Many thanks in advance...

I'm making a pop-up form for a certain of clients who require advocacy. I'm including a screenshot.
The thing is I don't necessarily want the form to go to a particular record, but rather be null until lastname/firstname field is filled in. I've written code to look up if there's already a client on the file and thus use that file, but am stuck when if there's none, and it's a new client, how do I make it so a new file is created?
Currently, the lastname and firstname's record source is a query looking up the corresponding fields in the related table.
Also, should I do something special for form's load property to ensure that no new record are created until lastname/firstname has been filled in?
Private Sub LastName_AfterUpdate()
If IsNull(DLookup("advocacyid", "advocacy", [me.lastname=advocacy.advocacyid])) Then
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
Exit Sub
Else
Let Me.AdvocacyID = DLookup("advocacyid", "advocacy", [me.lastname=advocacy.lastname])
Let Me.FirstName = DLookup("firstname", "advocacy", [me.advocacyid=advocacy.advocacyid])
Let Me.LastUpdate.DefaultValue = DLookup("lastupdate", "advocacy", [me.advocacyid=advocacy.advocacyid])
End If
End Sub

Greetings All,
I have a feeling that my problem is easy, but I have been in a panic over this project, that I cant think too straight anymore (I think I need a vacation!)
I have a simple form for tracking employee activity, such as rehire, death, orig hire, exc. This works find, except they now want to be able to make changes to staff details like new job title and such. On the same form. They don't want to change forms.
So I added a subform that connects to the Staff Detail table, using the Clock# that exists in both tables.
When the form is open, user must choose employee from drop down, once choice is made the clockno on the main form fills in, however, the subform clockno which it connected to the main doesnot update- unless, is you go into design view and then back to form view, the subform fills in with the right info, you can even use it in quierys -- However, if you change the employee in the main form, its clockno will change, but not the subform, you have to go the design view again. I have no clue. HELP

I need to set up a simple Consultant Booking DB.
Consultants need to be able to log-in when they are available and be put in rotation. Agents need to be able to select the next available Consultant. I also need there to be a waiting list.
I would like to be able to run reporting on Time on Waiting List, Time with Consultant, etc.
Is there a simple way to do this? I would appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction.
Thanks

MKC Clients_Quesries.mdb
MKC Clients.mde
MKC Clients_.des

Hi
I have created a db and am having serious problems, the size of the complete db is 3mb, and when split its 500k, the trouble I am having is that when putting the db on the network server and you try and open it based from home it takes so long for both the full db and the split.
The main db has one page that all staff need to see and have a quick response when opening on VPN client.
The form I want to open has a combo box that lets the employee select the company and all the information updates on the form.
I tried making a page in acces to do the same thing but having problems
Is this possible what I am trying to do or is there an easy faster option.
Thanks for your help

Right now i using client server application using
- Frond End : Ms.Access + Winsock with UDP protocol. ( This program like Yahoo Messenger )
- Back End : Sql Server
I made this program for Remote Trading.
every second server or client will be send data.
Sometime Server send data only to specific client, so when client logon to application, I save the IP number and after logout i clear the IP
the problem will be happen when the computer client Hang, server cannt send a data to that computer, and waiting for ever until server hang too after that all client will be hang.
and the question is How to check status computer already ON or Off
i mean before server send data, server will be check status computer with that IP, If status computer On then True else False, so if computer client off, server don't need to send data.
thx

Hi,
Firstly, I apologise if this has been posted before. I have done a couple of searches of the forums, but can't find what I'm after... and being new to access, I'm finding it hard to know what exactly to look for. How to even explain what I want is difficult!
I am designing a database for the clients we deal with a work. It started out as being a database of 'post' and correspondence, so the Idea was, we'd have a databse of all the clients... and by selecting their names, it would bring up a list of all the letters that have come in for them. I have managed this part fine - probably basic, but fine.
What I would like to do, is expand it to more than just 'letters'. Each client has done a particular 'work' with us, and each client has particular details that are unique. For example, a client will have made certain transactions through a bank account.
I hope to be able to click on a client, and have a screen or page pop up with details and comments about that particular client. I have tried hyperlinking but that doesn't really produce what I'm after. For example, I tried creating a "report" with a page for each client, so that I could have comments for each client - hyperlinked to the table. But all it does is link to the "whole report" and not a particular page for a particular client.
I'm sure this is sounding really confusing:
I have a client named "Peter Litman". His name and details are within a "client" table (listing all clients). I hope to be able to click on his name (or row) and bring information (comments, details etc.) about him. I thought this could be some sort of "pop up", or link to a special page. ??
The same would then apply with all other clients.
Any ideas? questions?
thanx.

I have two tables:
1. Client Info table which contains the following fields:
Clientid
LastName
FirstName
2.DatesDistribution table
Clientid
DateAttended
The relationship is one to many for these tables.I have been trying to create a query that will show the following:
Clientid
LastName
FirstName
DateAttended (where this field only shows the most current date that the client visited)
Example:
ClientInfo has 2 records:
Clientid=jsmith
LastName=Smith
FirstName=Jim
Clientid=tjones
LastName=Jones
FirstName=Tom
[code]...
I have tried grouping the records in Client Info table to get distinct names and using a Last function to get the most current date with little success.

Am looking to do a treeview type of search to hyperlink to client file/folders on my network. This way I can hide the main file source location in the network and files can just be accessible via Access program search.
So far I found this link [URL] and the 3rd bottom option seems to be the most promising but I cant seem to figure how to accomplish the hyperlinks.

I am creating an employee database for a client. The employee table has a performance column for each employee, and my client wants to be able to choose from four performance codes - Excellent, Good, Average, and Poor. They want to choose these descriptions instead of typing them in each time. How can I make this happen?

This post is really aimed at someone that has experience of network databases and the problems they can pose but if you can help at all that would be great!
I work for an insurance company and we have created a database for registering complaints on. The one we currently use is a single .mdb file which can be shared by up to 60 people at any one time. This is creating a lot of problems when the queries and some VBA code are run. I therefore made a server file which is just an mdb file with data tables in and NO forms or queries. This file is stored on a shared drive on the network server. We then created a client file which contains all of the forms and queries and code. This file contains linked tables to the server so when data is entered into the form, it "Sends" it to the server mdb file. The client is installed on each of the local machines c:. The problem with this was that if we made a change to the database, we would need to reinstall the client on every single user pc. This would of took ages. I therefore made an auto-update function that checked the version number on the server and if the server number was greater than the client number, a simple .bat fiile was run which copied the updated client file from the network to the relevant users local disk.
The problem we have now is that our IT department are concered that if we make a change to the client and all the staff log in at 9am for example, it will start doing multiple copying of a file around 8mb in size to around 60 machines. They are only running on a 2meg pipe so this could cause some problems. We are not looking to change the client & server idea but does anyone know if this will have a big impact and infact if the updates for 60 machine is the equivalent or lesser of 60 people sharing the single file i mentioned earlier. If the IT dept are happy with 60 users accessing the same file at the same time, which they currently are, why are they unhappy with it updating these machine using the new method.
Would really apopreciate any thoughts anyone has..
Thanks a lot.

I currently have details of my clients in a table called tblSites, this tble includes a field with an email address. I currently produce a invoice which is automatically saved as a pdf and an email generated with the invoice attached. However, a few clients do not have email addresses (these are sent by post). My code (see below) will successfully produce the email with the attachment, but if the client does NOT have an email address in the tblSites it comes up with the "Invalid use of Null" error. What I want it to do is continue the process of just saving the invoice with a Msgbox stating "This Client does not have an email address etc etc.
'Save Invoice as PDF and annotate Invoice Number, Date and site name
Dim StrFile As String
Dim slSQLString As String
Dim rsEmailAddress As Recordset
Dim slEmailAddress As String
StrFile = "C:Redwatch Invoices" & Forms!frminvoice!txtInvoiceNr.Value _
& "-" & Format(Date, "dd-mmm-yy") & "-" & Forms!frminvoice!cboSiteName & ".pdf"
[Code] ....
