Our company is currently rolling out an SP2 update to all of our PC's and this problem has reared its head on all of the updated PC's so far.
Basically when someone opens a database from a shared drive, they get an error stating that the file was made by an unknown publisher (seems to be a security warning), they click ok and then can open the file fine.
However, once someone is in the database, if anyone else tries to open it on an SP2 machine, nothing happens, the double click the file and it refuses to open. If they open Access, then click file>open and navigate to the file, they can open it. They just can't double click the file.
People using the SP1 machines can open the database with no problems whether someone is already in the file or not.
I'm guessing this is something to dow tih the SP2 security measures.
To try to sort it out, I made myself a self signed digital ceritificate and signed my macros, thinking that once the macros were signed, it would then realise who had published the file.
The only thing this does is brings up a second notice (after the initial publisher message) which gives you the option to trust content from my signature. Once this has been done once, there's no need to keep trusting it but the publisher message still comes up.
I went into the database properties and under the custom tab changed the "publisher" value to my name "Rob Jones". This still didn't work and when the database is opened it still says it's an unknown publisher.
Does anyone know how to either turn off this check or publish a database?? I've tried google / MS but can't find anything on the subject.
I work in three different databases, but for one of them (the main company db), if I right clicked the pinned Access program on the taskbar and click the pinned database, it does nothing if someone else has the file open already. If the file isn't open, it'll pop up with an "Unknown publisher" warning (new, never happened before this), but it'll open the file. If someone has the database open, it doesn't flicker or even try, it just does nothing.
I am able to open Access and click on the database in the "Recent files" and have it open that way. I don't know what to troubleshoot, its like it's not seeing the file, but I can go to the properties on the pinned db and it shows the correct file location. I'm the only one having this issue, the other users here can right click the pinned program and open the file like normal.
I've rebooted my computer; unpinned and removed from list; compacted and repaired; nothing is making a difference.
I have a little help program that I made with ccviz/Helpmaker. (its quite a nice program) Now I would like my users to be able to open it from a menu inside my Access database.
Hi to everyone Im not sure which thread i should be in, but here goes :confused: i want to create a members database for members on my forum with HTML! Ive been told to make the database with ACCESS ive played for 2 days and im now acctually getting somewhere, i would like members to interacte with it ie....add there own details to it. How do i do this and how do i get it to my server, well i did upload a tester but no one could see it and its says they need to have MS installed or something like that :eek:
Hi. I've written a database which I may need to install on a lot of machines which don't have MS Access. Does anyone know of any software I can buy that creates the set up.exe files that allow people to just install it regardless of whether they have MS Access? Many Thanks
I would like to start keys for different suppliers with different letters. For example a company named ABC would have product keys starting with a and then a series of automatically installed numbers. That is the series of keys would be a1, a2, a3, etc. and then a company named Village woud have keys v1, v2, v3, etc. How can I do this without having to manually install thousands of keys?
Hi, I've got some id card templates in publisher than i want to merge in access. i can merge the text details into access but i dont know how to link the photos. should i store the file path of the image in the database or should i embed the file.
would this work with publisher or do i need to use some code?
any help on this would be appriciated as i have no experience with pictures in access.
In an access table I have hyperlinks to various documents mainly word docs. I have recently added a Publisher doc and when I H/L to it it will open the application but not the doco.
Obviously Publisher behaves differently than Word in this regard.
I do need the link to open the doc. Is there a way around this please?
I have a list of publishers for software titles in a table.
1=Adobe 2=Macromedia
and so on and so forth. I have a form that pulls the publisher name and displays it, and it used to display correctly with the NAME but now all of a sudden it's displaying the publisher number "1" instead of "Adobe"
I'm currently using the following to edit a publisher document using access VBA.
Code: For Each pubShape In pubDoc.Pages(1).Shapes If pubShape.HasTextFrame Then If pubShape.Name = "Text Box 440" Then pubShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Text = Item1 If pubShape.Name = "Text Box 441" Then pubShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Text = Item2 If pubShape.Name = "Text Box 442" Then pubShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Text = Item3 If pubShape.Name = "Text Box 443" Then pubShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Text = Item4 If pubShape.Name = "Text Box 444" Then pubShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Text = Item5 If pubShape.Name = "Text Box 445" Then pubShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Text = Item6 If pubShape.Name = "Text Box 446" Then pubShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Text = Item7 If pubShape.Name = "Text Box 447" Then pubShape.TextFrame.TextRange.Text = Item8 End If Next
Obviously there are a lot of shapes/boxes etc in the document and this code is very inefficient and takes a few moments to complete. Is there a way to directly reference a text box and change its value. For word I have been using bookmarks but this doesn't seem to work with publisher.
I'm looking for something like pubshape.Value("text Box 440") = Item1 but cannot find the correct syntax.
Have been testing installation of Office XP Developer Access 2002 runtime package created using the package wizard on a WinXP Pro SP2 machine, for installation on a Vista RC2 5840 machine.
After installing the latest necessary updates such as Office XP Developer SP1 among others which were essential to remove the Path/File error I had, A new error displayed itself as soon as the runtime install package launched.
------------------------------------------------------------------- Visual Basic 6.0 Setup Toolkit (Error Window Title Bar)
The Office System Pack cannot be installed on this system because it requires Windows NT Service Pack 6 or later. -------------------------------------------------------------------
I assume Windows NT SP6 has no relevance to Vista ???
Maybe some other update will help here. I have googled for hours to no avail.
The code below allows me to open a publisher document that is already merged to the current record. What I need is to allow the user to open the document according to the group they are reviewing. How to accomplish this?
For example:
IF Group = A1 OR B1 THEN OPEN AB_1.pub IF Group = A2 OR B2 THEN OPEN AB_2.pub IF Group = A3 OR B3 THEN OPEN AB_3.pub
Dim pubApp As Publisher.Application Dim pubDoc As Publisher.Document Set pubApp = New Publisher.Application Set pubDoc = pubApp.Documents.Add.Application.Open("c:Publishe rAB_1.pub) pubDoc.ActiveWindow.Visible = True
I've inherited an access database with a multitude of functions and am trying to make heads or tails of a particular one. I'm wondering if someone can decipher what the results of the following does.
SELECT [table2].ORDER_NO AS Expr1 FROM table1, table2 WHERE (((IsNull([table1]![ORDER_NO]))=-1)) GROUP BY [table2].ORDER_NO ORDER BY [table].ORDER_NO;
My issue is with the where clause.
The way the DB is used limits my capabilities of running tests. For instance, Table2 is populated only at certain times (batch files insert data into it while processing and then clears it).
That being said. What I get from the where clause is that
- the result of ((IsNull([table1]![ORDER_NO])) must be = -1 as the criteria
I'm just not sure what ((IsNull([table1]![ORDER_NO])) translates to.
Have two controls GroupID and Shift which are linked with Criteria:
SELECT tblShifts.Shift, tblShifts.GroupID FROM tblShifts WHERE (((tblShifts.GroupID)=[Forms]![fmPersonalDetails]![GroupID]));
Have two other controls which are Position and Grade with same type of link.
Problem is When I try to edit the Shift control an error message comes up saying 'cannot edit bound to unknown field 'Shift'.
Have checked each of the property fields with the Position and Grade controls and are the same. Spelling is the same in the table. Are there any other obvious things I should be looking at because I'm pretty new to this and cannot find the solution.
I am trying to do something like MySQL's LIMIT with access. I'm getting an error that I don't understand with the following query:
SELECT TOP 30 * FROM Entries WHERE Id NOT IN ( SELECT TOP 15 * FROM Entries ORDER BY Id DESC ) AND Static = False AND Authorized = True ORDER BY Id DESC
I'm trying to create a database and it's going well accept for one facet. Some of my recipitents are not known by name. I am planning to use my database to issue letters, newsletters and the like but sometimes they will need to be addressed "Dear sir/madam" instead of "Dear Mr Smith" I was wondering to componsate for that in a database.
I've thought about using a "recipient" field, but I am not sure that would work too well as it would mean an extra field when it might not be needed (I can get "Dear Mr Smith" from fields such as Title and LastName).
I can't really get my head around it :(
One thing: Please don't think of me as some annoying mail-spam person. In truth I am a member of a charity but some of the businesses and charitable foundations we appeal to don't have named members for us to address letters to. Hence we need to use Dear Sir/Madam and the like.
:)
Please help me. I've hit my head on the wall so many times that I think I am going to demolish it!!
I am receiving the No Current Record message, but have been unable to determine the code that generates it. The database is a system that creates tasks and assigns them to users. In the header section of the Tasks form are several controls they can use to select Active or Completed tasks, refresh the data, sort by columns, etc. There are also three other forms (not subforms) that lay on top of the Tasks form to provide additional detail about the current task.
If they "complete" all their active tasks and click Refresh, all the tasks disappear, as they should, and everything works fine. If they then try to close the form, or click any control in the Tasks header, the No Current Record message pops up. I've put debug stops in every conceivable location, but the message appears to occur before any code is activated.
I did find that I can make the message not occur by commenting out the code that synchronizes one of the associated forms (Notes), but I still don't know what is triggering the message. Debug stops in Notes yield no results either, and clicking a control in the header of Tasks shouldn't affect Notes.
I ran into this error message with the SendObject method. I'm getting the email address from the "username" environment variable. Our company generally uses the logon ID as the first part of everyone's email address, but there are some users that get this error: "Unknown message recipient; the message was not sent" Not only that, if two sendobjects are used one after the other, sometimes it sends to the first person and then the second one is set up to send a copy back to the sending user, it doesn't recognize the recipient that's logged on and is actually trying to send the email. That's the one that comes from the environment variable. But I've tried hard-coding the recipient and bypassing the variable altogether and it still generates the same error.
When I open a query whether by double click or command button, the following error appears
What does it mean ?? this error appears sometimes not always. I can't figure out what this error refers to, as long as there no any error description or code.
Hey guys, I am trying to input data into a form, the form consist of mulitiple tables. Once I set it up I get a "#Name?" error in the text box, and when I try to input data into the text box, at the bottom of the form it keeps saying "control can't be edited; it's bound to unknown field 'FieldName'."
I have created a form and insert, delete some columns, controls in layout view. When all 's completed, i saw a dark vertical line on top right of the last colulmn but i could not delete it. I deleted column, set property but they all did not work. What i have to do now? Below is a screen capture from my situation.
I have two tables each with an ID field (autonumber/PK/No Dup etc).
I want to append two fields from one table to the other table. I have set up an Append Query to do this but it won't work - I get the following error - "The INSERT INTO statement contains the following unknown field: 'FiID'...."
