We keep having our backend tables corrupt. We want to upgrade only the backend tables to SQL server. I don't even know where to start. What version of SQL server? I guess I find out if we have an existing licence in the company? Any help on this?
View RepliesIs there an easy fast way to do this:
We are having problems upgrading to SQL server for only our backend tables. The problem is we have SQL reserved words that can only be used by SQL Server. There is a huge list I was given. I assume this applies to all objects, in our ms access database. Any suggestions on how to at least 'find' all of these at once? Or fix this easily? I know which tables would not upload ...but in looking through them I don't even see which reserved word is causing the issue???
Also..our front end application with stay Ms access 2003. Do I still need to update any reserved words in that or just the tables?
Hi everyone,
I recently added a new page to an existing database in 97. All the previous pages run with a case number. I then upgraded to access 2003 and now the case numbers are out of snyc on the new page.
Can anyone help.
Hi
At work I was just updated to access 2003. I am trying to update a data base that I created in access 2000. Whenever I try to open a data access page I get the following error. "The installer encountered an internal string error. Installation failed." I've updated the Web components and that seems to have gone ok. My IT people are at a loss.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

I am currently upgrading to win 2003 servers. When I open an access 2000 database on the server I get a read only warning.
I have check all the permissions to allow the users access, but the warning remains.
I do not have the problem with any other documents on the server.
If anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate a response.
Hello,
Could you please someone take a look int my problem? I have made an Access database with forms, reports and everything. We used it on the LAN and it worked fine. Now I would like to enable users to reach the data even from home, for which I thought the terminal server would be the best (due to mostly slow connection type).
I asked our provider to install Windows Server 2003 R2 on our remote server. Then I installed Access 2003 and copied the mdb file to that server.
The file can be open but it blocks all VBA codes in the forms, modules, etc. I think this is related to the security issues and something called sandbox of Access and tried to follow the instrudtion on the help section, but no success.
Please guide me to run my mdb on Windows Server. Thanks!!

I am in the process of upgrading Access b/e to SQL b/e using .mdb and linked table as the front end ( as given as the best solution in many of the posts).
I remember reading in this forum ( Comment made by Pat Hartman) that forms should be based on queries rather than using a filter criteria.
I have a continuous form with project records. The user can double click one of the records to view further details of the project on a separate form. The code I have used to open the form is as follows:
strdocname = "frmProjDetails"
strParm = ""
strLinkCriteria = "[WProjNo]=" & "'" & Me![ProjNo] & "'"
DoCmd.OpenForm strdocname, , , , acFormEdit, , strParm
Would this be a reduction in performance? Should the record source of the details form be changed to a query that has a where clause pointing to the selected record?
Thanks...Priya
Hi,
In 2000 and xp i used this code to count the rows of a sub form : -
subform_controlname.form.recordset.recordcount
this no longer works in 2003 and i just get #Name? appearing instead???
Any idea's on why that is??
Thanks

We are sharing an Access 2003 database amongst two departments that contains twelve (12) tables that are SQL Server linked tables. Nine (9) of the tables work just fine for people in both departments. Three (3) of the tables cannot be opened until the user refreshes the link(s) using their ODBC DSN.
We do not understand why nine of the tables work without issue but three will not.
Has anyone ever run into this issue before? Does anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this issue?
Thanks
In our company we use a windows 2003 server. Our database is ms access 2002. The back end of the db is situated in a directory on the primary HD of the server.
All our workstations use windows professional. The DB works great when inputting data from workstations using widows pro.
I use a vista (ultimate) laptop. It appears that when I enter data from my vista laptop at times it corrupts the backend of the db. None of the other workstations do this.
Is vista a problem here in this situation?
Hi all,
having some serious troubles with a MS Access 2000 project running on a Windows 2003 Server environment.
If I compile the project it doesn't produce a compiling-error. Everything seems to work fine. Creating a .mde file and running it on a Windows Server 2003 produces some serious errors. The project seems to be starting correctly but opening a form or simply trying to close the application causes MS Access to crash! :mad:
I tried the project on 2 different Windows Server 2003 environments, 1 having MS Access 2000 installed and 1 having only MS Access 2000 Runtime installed. Both are experiencing the same problems.
The following references are used in the project:
- Visual Basic For Applications
- Microsoft Access 9.0 Object Library
- Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.6 Library
- Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library
- Microsoft Jet and Replication Objects 2.6 Library
- OLE Automation
- Microsoft Office 9.0 Object Library
- Microsoft ADO Ext. 2.8 for DLL and Security
I tried the following solutions to solve the problem:
* Removing MS Access completely and reinstalling it.
* Compiling and creating a .mde on the Windows 2003 Server which has the full version of MS Access 2000 installed.
* Using JetComp to repair the database.
* Creating a new MS Access 2000 application and copy all Forms/Modules into it.
Nothing helped so far..
The same project is running correctly on Windows 98, ME, 2000, 2000 Server and XP Pro/Home. Both Windows 2003 Servers are fully updated, including updates regarding MS Access.
Help...
Our company recently switched over to a Microsoft 2003 server and I
noticed in our database, before several employees could work in our access database. Now only 1 person at a time can enter the database.
I splited the database and added shortcuts of the front end on each
individual's desk but again only 1 person at a time can make entries. We all share a M drive. How do I fix it so we all can work in the database at the same time?
Before the upgrade, we had the 2000 server and everything worked fine
w/ the access database; we all could work in the database; however, w/
the new 2003 server we are having problems as I explained above.
What can I do to fix this problem? Thnaks.
I have an access db in a small lan (12 clients)
I want to make an upgrade and to go to an more powerfull tool than access
It is possible to do that easy with mysql sql server ........... or something else ?
Thank you
Hey,
I'm recently starting a new job and one of my tasks is to clean up their Access 2000 database. After looking through it and realizing how much crap there is in it, I was thinking about starting a new one for them from scratch. I was wondering if there are any pros/cons to redeveloping the database in 2003 verses 2000. Its a pretty small company with usually about 6 people concurrently working on it throughout the day.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!!
By the way, my FO line manager wants an IT report, i am wandering if there is any possibility to search and export users. The report should show in the status column who are disabled, who are enabled, date created and date expired in date column in active directory windows server 2003 environment?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi everyone,
I'm new here and I have a problem I cannot solve. I tried searching for ideas, but I could not find any help.
Here is my problem.
I have a database form used to scroll through records. I use the same form for searching. The user clicks a search button, I clear the form, they enter their search criteria (perhaps in multiple fields). Since upgrading to 2007, the clearing of the form takes many times longer than it did in 2003. I am using the following code to clear the form.
For Each Ctrl In form.Controls
If TypeOf Ctrl Is TextBox Then
Ctrl.SetFocus
Ctrl.ControlSource = ""
Ctrl.Value = ""
End If
Next
This code executes instantly in 2003 and takes almost 1 minute in 2007. Any thoughts as to why this is so different in 2007?
If there is a different way I should be clearing the form, please let me know.
Thanks for your help.
I've got Access 2000 and was wondering what I needed to upgrade to Access 2007. By this I mean, front page of manual, ID code, etc. And is it something I have to present at purchase or something that Microsoft validates online. Does anyone know?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI've been having serious problems with my ASP scripts. Ok, for
the last week or so I’ve been working with you people and my
ISP to resolve this damn problem. Just last Monday, they told
me that it had been fixed. And it was true! I tried it and
everything once again worked fine. I made a dozen tests, and
everything worked fine. But when I tried it again two days
later, it's suddenly back to crashing again, the exact same
damn problem I was having before! I’m so frustrated I could
kill. I don’t think I did anything. Yes, my ASP code still works.
Yes, the HTML code still works. It’s when the code attempts
to open a *.mdb database it crashes.
Call up my demo script (then click "Reservation.") : http://christiansencustomsoftware.com/guestbk/dindex.htm
which will demonstrate the problem.
A newsgroup I work with writes: “This sometimes happens when you try to use the new MS Jet provider on a Access 97 database, upgrade your Access database to 2000, should work just fine.”
Ok, so how can I upgrade my Access database to 2000?
HI, Im new to this, so I need some help if you can on the subject of upgrading a database created using access 1.0 to the latset version of access, can this be done ? Many Thanks
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a date field on one of my forms that gets populated automatically when a new record is created. I also have a subform on the form that lists the tasks that still need to be accomplished this month.
Some problems have popped up as people got new computers with new versions of Access:
Access 2002(10.6501.6825) SP3 - No problems.
Access 2002(10.6771.6817) SP3 - The Date field isn't recognised on a new record (#Name?), but it's fine on the old records (displays date).
Access 2002(10.6771.6825) SP3 - The reminder subform is blank (white), as if it doesn't exist, but the date field works fine.
Any ideas why this might be/how to fix?
Thanks! This is really frustrating. If it didn't work for anyone, I would find a way to fix it, but because it works for some people, I don't know what to fix...
Hello,
I have installed Microsoft Access 2003 and Microsoft Access 2003 Developer Extensions. I can create Access application by using the Package Wizard.
But after I upgrade from Microsoft Access 2003 to Microsoft Access 2007.
I can't use the Package Wizard.
How can I do to solve this?
Thanks.
I have two database applications and they are:
- the (A) application is for administration use.
- the (B) application is for normal users use.
the idea is that: I made the (A) application for administrators who have full control over the database objects (tables, forms, queries, and so on ...).
the (B) application I have created for normal users who will have only to use forms to insert some data and display data only.
but the two applications has a respective table called "vacation request" table. where I linked them, so the both administrators and users can share the data.
The real question is that: How can I prevent the users from seeing the database objects in their application. I used the database options which have helped me in hidding the database objectives when the users open the application, but unfortunately they managed to access to the database objects by pressing the special keys.
I would like to have an access to the (B) application when I want to make some modifications to the forms and then lock it from users where they only have to use the forms for requesting vacations and view the vacations.
I've been using the following code successfully in Access 2003 & now I need to migrate to Access 2010. The purpose of the code is to use the items that the user selects in the list box to build the criteria of a query. Access 2010 keeps giving me a syntax error when I try to run the query & I don't know why:
My code is:
On Error GoTo Err_Command151_Click
' Declare variables
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef
Dim varItem As Variant
Dim strCriteria As String
Dim strSQL As String
[Code] .....
The syntax error I get in Access 2010 is:
Syntax Error in query expression 'SELECT * FROM
qryContractListSummarybyDateContract3TYPEBREAK WHERE
qryContractListSummarybyDateContract3TYPEBREAK.Rep ortableName IN('Adbri
Masonry NSW');'
Attached is a screenshot of the relationships in a database I built a couple of years ago. It's worked absolutely fine in Access 2003 and currently has over 18,000 customers with associated information in it.
However, when I open the database in Access 2007 the performance is awful. All the forms are very slow to respond when tabbing between form elements. I've experimented by reducing the number of form elements calling on related data on a given page and whilst this improves performance it reduces usability - something I don't want to compromise on especially since Access 2007 should be able to cope with this.
My next question is therefore whether I've got the most efficient underlying table design and I can't see any other way of doing it than my current method so I'd be grateful for any feedback or advice anyone has.
I am working on a massave aplication that has been running in Access 2000, but recently several of the file sharing users have installed Access 2003 because of the limited availability of Access 2000. All the users are using the same file off the server.
The problem we are having is that when we reference a subform in the "[Forms]![FormName]![SubformName]![FeildName]" Access 2003 does not recognize it and returns an error. I have found that if I will modify it to "[Forms]![FormName]![SubformName].[Form]![FeildName]" it is recognized in both 2000 and 2003.
To try and change every instance of a subform reference will take forever and I am garuteed to overlook something. We reference subforms all over our program, missing any one of them would be a disaster. Before I went to the tedious task of looking through everything I just wanted to throw the situation out there and see if any of you had any great ideas on how to get it fixed efficiently. I would apreciate any ideas.
