I built a ms database and I'm just wondeirng about the compatability of using 2007, what kind of issues can i expect to run into and does this sound like there will be a major overhaul needed in the programing, or should it be pretty straight forward.
View RepliesI am running Access 2000 on the network. Recently I upgraded one of the users to Access 2007. All is well, except she cannot get into one of the databases when other "2000" users are in it. When she was using Access 2000 this wasn't an issue. Is there a way around this?

Neighbour has got a new `puter which came with Office 2007 (without Access )
He needs Access to run an app for his business.
He still has a copy of Office 2000 Pro.
Are there any issues with installing Access 2000 alongside Office 2007. ?
The app calls Outlook to send emails.
Will there be any problems when Access runs this - ? -
Dim stAppName As String
stAppName = "C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOfficeoutlook.exe"
Call Shell(stAppName, 1)

Wondering if anyone had tried this yet, and if so, encountered any problems. I have a few existing DB's in the office. Split with backend on server in mdb format. I am now using both 2003 and 2007... BUT.. Now that the runtime is out I would like to make my future updates in 2007. So the question is... Has anyone used a 2007 file format frontend with a 2000 to 2003 file format backend? I understand that the new field properties wouldn't be available in the mdb backend, but besides that, would they still link properly?Thanks
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have created a database in Access 2007 that now works well, and one that I'm quite proud off. However, I can easily convert it to an Access 2000 format as can anyone else here, but when I load it up there is a major problem.
I have used the tab control in my main form and that has three tabs on it. However, it's positioned correctly in Access 2007 it's not positioned correctly in Access 2000 as I have to move the tab control down a bit, but that would seem fine. So I lowered the tab control form and changed my form layout slightly, but even then the tab control over all over the Access 2000 form whenever I interact with the tabs - most bizzare.
Any help? Thanks.
Can anyone direct me to someone that does work with Office 2000 Developer
to complete a database runtime version. I paid Microsoft for help that was expensive and all i got was suggestions to but more software. I own Office 2000 Developer 2000 version 1.5. Its a small job so I dont know where to start looking for someone to hire.
Thanks
My database is written in Access 97 (I know get out of the stone age) but we have a mix of office 97 and office 2003 users. Anyway I'm afraid that one of the few people that have access 2000 or higher will open my database and convert it. I found (through here) code to check the version but it is attached to a form opening which is way to late. Is there a way to have access check the version as soon as you click to open the database and if it isn't 97 close the database?

I'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?
I have written my very first database in Access 2003 but it tells me that it has been saved in Access 2000 Format.
My questions are:
1. Why has it done this?
2. Can I change it 2002 or 2003 format?
I've been having some problems with sharing an MS Access 2000 database across a network.
The database is setup to open in shared mode and has been tried both with and without record locking, with the same issue occurring.
The main users are:
User 1 (Administrator) - MS Access 2000 Full Version (WinXP Professional)
User 2 - Access 2000 Runtime + Access 97 (Win XP Professional)
User 3 - Access 2000 Runtime + Access 97 (Win XP Professional)
The problem is occurring when User 3 opens the database. For some reason it opens in exclusive mode and locks out Users 1 & 2. This issue only happens with User 3, and does not happen with User 2 who has the same software setup.
The database was previously an Access 97 database (no problems) and has been converted to Access 2000, this share issue has been happening ever since the conversion.
Any ideas as to how this shared issue could be resolved? :confused:
BTW - I am familiar with FE/BE setups. This database is accessed by all from a network drive and not setup as FE/BE. This was never an issue, as shared access worked fine when the database was in Access 97 - the problem has only been since converting to Access 2000. I do not have access to the PC of User 2, and User 2 does not have any PC knowledge to install a FE, which means I would need to create an install package (which I'd rather not do). Are there any ways to resolve the shared access issue without changing to FE/BE?
I design the db in 2003

Hi
I have a database that currently has security in place so that users input their own usernames and passwords to access the database. The users have recently been added to a windows 2000 server and I want to be able to use their windows 2000 server logon credentials to provide them with automatic access to the database. Is there anyone out there who knows how to set this up? It is a rather urgent request if you could get back to me either on this forum or via email

I am opening and closing a series of Excel 2000 Workbooks using Access 2000 VBA and want this sequence to be able to complete without any human intervention.
However, there are 2 instances when this stops and waits for a human option to be selected:
1. When the spreadsheet is password protected
2. When the spreadsheet has automatic links I get the message:
"The Workbook you opened contains automatic links to information in another workbook. Do you want to update this workbook with changes made to the other workbook?"
How can I code it so that in situation 1 it skips this file and in situation 2 it automatically defaults to do not update?
Any help most appreciated.

If I have a report in MS Access 2000 generated based on the criteria selected of a project with work order "9999" with the labor costs, materials costs and the Totals of each crew1, crew2,... and I would like to have those expenditures populated in corresponding cel in Excel for each crew, HOW would I do it?
To think it out loud, could I create a button on a form, so when I select the criteria for the work order, and when I click the button, it should refresh/update the Exel file with the new data...?? How do I write VBA code for that...?
Please help...Thank you so much....
I have a relatively small database of approx 28 MB - for 5 users max on Access 2007 -since the upgrade from '97 I have noticed a significant degradation in performance over the network - not so much on my machine which is the server/host machine but on the clients. All are Pentium/Celeron processors and recently I have beefed up the working memory to approx. 750MB/ 1GB on all these machines.
Even so, on occasion, I might type something in a field on a form - Access seems to 'fall asleep' for 10 seconds or so and then wake up again. Indeed, the window caption states (Not responding) .... This is not happening all the time but enough that when it does happen it is particulalry frustrating. Has anyone else had a similar experience?
I am thinking of splitting the database into a front / back end to resolve this issue but perhaps it is not a network traffic problem / the database isnt really that big considering others that I have read about on the forum that run into 100 of MBs! - can anyone suggest this a sensible idea / or could I regret at a later date?
Thanks for any help/suggestions you may have.

Hi everybody,
I have recently been doing a conversion for my boss for a access 2000 database (both front and backend) to a MSSQL backend.
I finished the conversion today (as quite a lot of the code / queries ran slow due to access running the queries locally rather than on the server). And tested it on my and my boss's machine with no problems so he gave the go ahead to update everybody to our new mssql 2000 backend with the modified frontend.
This is when the problems started; We had two different sets of forms for accessing one of our databases systems - the log system, one is the original dynaset based form, and the other is a newer set which uses snapshot views and preforms updates via queries. Nobody uses the old dyanset system apart from my boss and one of the administrative team as they have things on that window which they need to see. About 30 minutes into the release of the new database the system frooze up on my bosses computer and nobody could create a new log (the server was timing out). I assumed this had something to do with the old dynaset's creating locks on the table.
I offlined the database and kicked everybody out of the front end, turned it on again and tied again, this time banning everybody from the dynaset system. Within 10 minutes another computer frooze up, again with a timeout on the insert query. I discovered that after you had added a new log to the database it would timeout on all subquent additions (something it hadn't done during testing) . Further investigatiion showed it was the snapshot list window causing the error, so coded the add log window to close the list before preforming the insert query and then reopen it afterwards. This allowed my machine to make multible additions without flaw. So I released a new client to everybody. 15 minutes later it was timing out again, but this time there you could not even make one new record.
I checked for locks on the table though the server management table and couldn't find any for the Log table. I have restarted the SQL server box and with no avil. So I reverted our backend to the access mdb file and told people to use the old client.
I am at a complete lose to why this is happening, if anybody has had any expericences like this or knows the cause please tell me.
Some information on the database in question.
It was made as an access 2 database all intergrated into one file, then it was seperated into two files (frontend and backend). Upgraded to Access 97, then to 2000 before this final update to MSSQL 2000.
The log system has two main tables. The first is the log title / info table which links (one to many) to a log entry table. This problem only occurs on the main log table and does not appear to be reoccurring anywhere else within the database. The main log table has just under 18,000 rows in it.
Thank you in advance for any help,
Dom
Greeting All,
I am trying the beta version of Access 2007 and realize that when converting Access 97 to Access 2007, the new db in Access 2007 has an extension of .accdb. I rename the db file name to xxxxx.mdb and the VB app fails to recognize it.
Is there any way to convert the xxxx.accdb (Access 2007 beta) to xxxx.mdb so that I can try my app against the Access 2007 db?????
Thank you for your time,
ConKi
I am trying to copy/replicate an Access 2007 database. My objective is to have a new copy of the database, without any records in it.
Can't find anything in the Access help about this -- what I find in my old Access 97 does not apply.
Thanks
I am kinda new to 2007 and have at the moment a simple database.
I want three things
A: Use the database on a server.
B: Restrict the use to users etc as i used to be a ble to do in Access 97 i think (do i have to make a MDW if so how ?) 9I tried ACCDE but does not seem to do anything)
C: When users use the datavase not see all the normal access editing stuf..

I have built a database with Access 2007, and intend on sharing the database amongst two users.
I am running Vista, and the two PC's or on a peer to peer network. Both with Vista.
I have split the database, and put separate copies of the front end on each of the PC's.
The backend of the database is on the public drive on my PC.
Access opens and functions correctly on both PC's with 1 User logged in.
However, if both users are logged in, my collegues PC crashes when it tries to open forms. This does not happen on my PC.
Does anyone have any ideas on what I need to change. Thanks in advance.
I have a .accdb Access 2010 (new laptop) database I want to work on in Access 2007 (old desktop) - but it won't let me. Says "you must have at least version 14.000" But in 2010, when I do a File>Save database there aren't any other options other than .accdb.
Is there a way to do this?
Just upgraded to Acccess 2007 and have ownership problem extracting queries from a 2002 db.
When trying to import into a new 2007 or export from the 2002, get "you have no permission" message
Have created a new user tried to change owner of the db, but no permission
File security looks correct in that I am owner of the file with full permissions, but Access doesn't recognize me as the owner
Tried logging in as admin, but it isn't the owner either
This is not critical, just very time consuming, this is a test project, but it would be nice not to have to rewrite about 30-40 queries and equivalent forms
Any guidence appreciated
I am not sure where to post this question. I remember finding a forum just for Microsoft Access 2007 questions, but I couldn't find it again... Indifferent
Anyway, I have created a database, and have been testing it with my application. I have some data in this database. I was wondering if there was a way in Microsoft Access 2007 to create an empty copy of the database for release. In other words, I would like to create a copy of the database with all of the tables and columns, but without the data (rows) that I had entered as part of using my testing database...
Does anyone know if I can do this?
If anyone knows where this Access 2007 forum is, or resources that might answer my question, please let me know, as I would greatly appreciate that.
Thanks Again,
