I have followed the instructions to the letter and still cannot connect to the Access database on the desktop. I am running XP Pro with Office 2003. I am using MaAfee virus scan and I disabled Access Protection, buffer Overflow protection. On-Delivery E-mail scanner and On-Access Scanner iare still enabled. . The error log on my device reads "Failure to open SQL Server with given command" and Error connecting to Access Database.
Also is there a VB equivelent to the Visual studio application avaiable for download?
Currently i have a SQL database on our server and an adp file that allows the end user to open the database to play with the data.
On the client side the user navigates to the adp file from above and opens it which allows them to do their work.
I need the same database but for another department, so i copied the SQL and adp file to another folder and renamed it. I then open the adp file from the new folder created using Access 2002 on Win XP Pro SP2, click File navigate to connection and refresh the data source and server name but i cant see the new database i copied over.
I then stop/start the Sql server but same issue. I now think i might need an ODBC connection but when going into ODBC the other database has no connection setup in there therefore i guess i dont need to for the new database. I type the name of the new database in connection (Access 2002) and comes back with an error (Cant find it)
Any idea about this one? all im trying to do is have the same database with a different name and allowing clients to connect to it?
Ok, I need to give some details. I have a secure Access Database using WorkGroup Security logon. It is an Access 97 database (yes I know it is "old").
I tried to create a DTS package in SQL Server 2000 to connect to it, but I am getting the same error that I got before I "joined" the workgroup when attempting to access the DB. So I changed the Service logon identites to mimic <me> as the logon, and still I can't get it to connect. The user name and password I put in the connection are correct.
It seems like nothing is working and I am all out of ideas. Does anyone have any recommendations? Has anyone done anything like this successfully?
PS: I can manually logon to the database, and extract the data 1 table at a time, but I don't want to export 40 tables each time I have to load this data. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
MS SQL Server 2005 Express. I'm trying to connect to Access DB (having System Database) via OPENROWSET. Everything (client, server and access file) is on local drive.
This works (ODBC):
select * from openrowset('MSDASQL', 'Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};Dbq=C:MBK.mdb;SystemDB=C:SECURED.MDW;Uid=me;Pwd=pw;', 'select * from [Mbk]')
This works (Jet.OLEDB):
select * from opendatasource('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'Data Source=C:MBK.mdb;Jet OLEDBystem Database=C:SECURED.MDW;User ID=me;Password=pw;') ...Mbk
This won't work (Jet.OLEDB):
select * from openrowset('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'MS Access;Database=C:MBK.mdb;System Database=C:SECURED.MDW;UID=me;PWD=pw;', 'select * from [Mbk]')
saying ... "Wrong argument".
This won't work (Jet.OLEDB):
select * from openrowset('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'MS Access;Database=C:MBK.mdb;SystemDB=C:SECURED.MDW;UID=me;PWD=pw;', 'select * from [Mbk]')
saying ... "There are no permissions for usage of object C:MBK.mdb". It seems that it simply hasn't found system database file C:SECURED.MDW, cause when I change SystemDB=C:SECURED.MDW to something like BlahBlahBlah=C:SECURED.MDW the same message is shown.
So, what is the right syntax for stating System Database in OPENROWSET query string? And why 'System Database' won't work?
I installed SQL 2005 including backward compatibility, MSDN libraries and SP2 a new Windows 2003 server (chose mixed mode authentication). Installation was successful and I then installed an off the shelf database with Windows authentication which also installed successfully. I created a new group in AD, added the database users into the group and gave db-owner rights to the group in SQL as advised by the installation guide. However, when I try to open the database it gives an error message saying "Cannot open database.[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen(Connect()).] SQL server does not exist or access denied". I also tested it adding an individual user (myself) as a user to no avail. When I set up DSN in ODBC on my computer I can successfully test the connection but can't run the application. The connection is via TCP/IP. Any suggestions?
We have been asked to look into using stored procedures with SQL Server 7.0 as a way to speed up a clients site. 99% of all the articles I have read along with all the books all say Stored Procedure should be used whenever possible as opposed to putting the SQL in your ASP script. However one of my colleagues has been speaking to Microsoft and they said that that they were surprised that our client wanted to use Stored Procedures as this was the old method of database access and that now he should really consider using COM objects for data access as itis much faster. Has anyone got any views on this or know of any good aticles regarding this matter ?
i have a database that i am trying 2 convert from access to SQL Server...
but when i try to read the SQL Server tables through MSAccess i can't enter or edit data... the database properties, and the user permissions are NOT readonly in both access and SQL Server - so whycan't i write data?
I'm facing a dilemma. I have quite a lot of users who need read access to data for analysis purposes. By granting them read access you also give them the option to connect to the database using MS Access which puts locks on the data.
First I thought of generating stored procedures for all tables within a database those users need to query but when users execute a stored procedure with the name of the table, they get a resultset of all the data. They cannot filter the data by for example using select top 100* from usp_table where name like '%worf%'
I'm sure I'm not the only one here but I don't see any alternative then grant them those rights.
I've about read myself to death, and have yet to find the simple answer to the question of what is the best way to connect my MS Access 2003 front-end to an SQL 2000 back-end?
How do you setup a conntection in ssis to connect to an access mdb? I have used DTS to upload access tables to sql and want to do the same in the new ssis services. I migrated the DTS package but the connection in created for the access mdb does not work in ssis and is shown to be be illegal. The migration did not post any errors when it migrated the package.
We have just upgraded to SQL Server 2005 from 2000. We have an MS Access application that connects and links tables from the new SQL Server database. Users are getting errors when creating records for the first time on the subscriber databases. We have reseeded the primary keys on all the tables to no avail. The only thing we can think of that may be a problem is the version of ADO that we're using as a reference in the MS Access application. We have a reference to ADO 2.5 and don't know whether we should be using 2.8. Any suggestions? Thank you.
I'm new to SQL server, still in the beginning stage of learning SQL Server. I'm here would like know, besides using the Connectivity from the DTS Designer to connect to different databases, is it possible to connect the database, i.e: Access via stored procedure? and how? Pls advise...
I'm have been trying to look for the solution via a lot of SQL Server site, but fail to get what I want.
What I'm trying to do is something like : First connect to the Database and Query the data, after that insert it into another database....
I'm working on a project where I have to create a password protected form for teachers to submit reports about students. Originally I was going to use asp.net to create the form, but unfortunately the server I'm working with will not be granted asp functionality in the allotted timeframe.
To solve this issue I have another idea. So I will ask a few questions to help with research before I begin coding.
Is it possible to create a windows application that can connect to an access database hosted online? The windows app will need to be be able to update, insert, and select information from the database.
There is only going to be about 30-40 people using this windows application once or twice a week.
Thus I envision taking a password protected access database and dropping it onto a server. The windows application will have the online location of the database embeded into the code. (connection string) From there on out coding for the windows application should be the exact same as if the database was hosted locally on the computer, correct?
Also, 1. What is a good way to check and make sure the computer is connected to the internet before my application tries to access the database?
2. Are there any drastic security issues with this process that I should think about. The database will only be password proected, and the windows application will take a username/password from the user and check it against a table before they are able to submit info to the database.
I just need to be pointed in the right direction for this project. Thanks.
Okay Ive managed to confuse myself pretty good.I have an aspx page that attempts to connect to an SQLEXPRESS instance and add data to a table.Code as follows:beginning of page<%@ page aspcompat=true enablesessionstate=false language=javascript %><!--#include file="adojavas.inc"--><%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.OleDb" %>I have a toolfunction that when called upon runs this:if (xco >= -180 && xco <= 180 && yco >= -90 && yco <= 90) { status = "Can't connect to database."; // create connection to database var connection; connection = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection"); connection.Open("Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist Security Info=False;Initial Catalog=OutdoorsExp;Data Source=\.pipeMSSQL$SQLEXPRESSsqlquery;"); status = "Can't access table."; // create recordset var recordset; recordset = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset"); recordset.Open("dbo.FishType", connection, adOpenDynamic); status = "Can't append new record, record set does not support AddNew."; // append record for clicked location if (recordset.Supports(0x01000400)) { status = "Can't append new record."; recordset.AddNew(); recordset.Fields("LongitudeI").Value = xco; recordset.Fields("LatitudeI").Value = yco; recordset.Update(); } recordset.Close(); // release the file connection.Close(); status = "Can't propagate changes to drawing."; // refresh drawing var document = mapserver.Document; var componentIndex = document.ComponentSet.ItemByName("FishTable Data Points Drawing"); if (componentIndex >= 0) { document.ComponentSet.Item(componentIndex).Refresh(); } status = xco.toString() + ", " + yco.toString(); }Unfortunately this gives me an error instead of transferring the value xco,yco to the SQL Tables LatitudeI/LongitudeI column.Ive tried many different connections strings, and have played myself into a state of confusion now :(.I get this error:[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.[COMException (0x80004005): [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.]Ive tried named pipes and using IP to connect, and Im not 100% sure how to use SQL Server via "System.Data / System.Data.SqlClient".Any insights would be greatly welcomed!
I am trying to link SQL SE 2000 (Local server at head office) to MSDE 2000 (remote server). After creating the server group in local server, I try to register SQL server Computers (MSDE 2000) to place in it.
But I received this error message.

I checked the setup for client and server utilities.

Please, help me. I don't know what went wrong here.
The server that needs to be moved: SERVER A. The databases which need to be moved (present in SERVER A): DB-A, DB-B. The SERVER A machine is in X domain
The target machines: Could be any of SERVER T1 This machine is in Y domain.
While we are trying to create a new server instance of the Server A in SERVER T1, we are getting an error message as shown below:
Reason: SQL server does not exist or access denied. (ConnectionOpen (Connect())
The server that needs to be moved SERVER A could not be mapped to SERVERT1.
Problem: The tables concerned present in the SERVER A and the production server are same. These could be extracted to SERVERT1 using the SQL Enterprise Manager utility. Views and Stored Procedures concerned are only present in SERVER A. Problem lies in copying them. Manually doing so could pose great risks. What is the plausible work around for this?
How viable is it to use MS Access as a front end (via ODBC) to a SQL Server2000 database?The users would access via the internet using a netgear vpn setup.Thanks,Paul S
I have been for years using the following code locally in native ASP (except different UID and PWD and file path for the msado15.dll) with SQL Server 2000 on XP to do my development and then I upload to the web site later (uses different objConn etc when live). I've now tried to use the same for SQL Server Express and Vista and always get the "does not exist or access denied" error ( 2147467259).
I only want to use SQL Server locally from the machine I'm developing on as I upload the tested "ASP" code to the server which runs it. The SQL Server Browser is running and I have checked the Firewall exclusions for sqlservr.exe. Also I installed it with out Windows Logon (same as I had for SQL Server 2000).
Any ideas, I tried using the Data Source=localhost instead of explicitly defing the path except that had no affect either, I also changed the rshstest_data.mbf to rshstest.mbf as well also to no affect as there appears a difference with this in 2000 and Express?
Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks..

ok im a CS student, installed visual studio .net, and im trying to connect to a ms sql database (Northwind), but I keep getting a error that "[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen(Connect()).] SQL Server does not exist or access denied" in visual studio whenever I try creating a new database connection. How do I know if SQL server is installed on my system? cuz in my systray I see SQL server service manager, is that the same thing as SQL server? or do I need to download the full version or something? also could it be that a certain port on my system is not open that SQL server requires to be open? Thanks Ron

I am treating one of the XP Home system as 'Server' and installed SQL Express 2005 SP1. Enabled remote connections access.
I have total 4 XP Home systems, out of which one i am treating as Server, from the rest 3 computers, 2 are successfully connected to the Server and able to access SQL Express without any problems. But the 3rd system is unable to communicate with the Server. I disabled all firewalls in this 3rd system but still unable to connect to the server. I am able to ping the server, browse for shared folders on the server. Except SQL Express remote connection, everything else in the network is accessible from this 3rd computer.
Can anyone help me on how to troubleshoot this 3rd computer sql express connection problem to the server.
I don't have any error message to provide here. It just says, unable to connect to sql server, verify username/password etc.
Is there any limitation on SQL Express remote connections ?
I have been having problems after I make a connection from my application to a SQL Server 2005 database that is located on a different machine. After a few minutes it gives me the SQL Server Does Not exist or Access denied message. I am able to connect to it through SQL Server management studio. I am doing some data intensive operations by copying data from different tables on the remote server onto text files on my local machine. Any suggestions?
Lets get this out of the way first - I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT SQL SERVER, MSDE or MDAC
Sorry I don't mean to shout but I really don't know anything at all so please make your answers as simple as possible.
I have an application (Webmarshall) that has a SQL database from which certain reports are run. Whenever I try to run the reports it asks me for database details.
According to the application it is using LANCELOTWEBMARSHALLWebmarshall as the database
As this is all happening on one server, I presume it is local and not remote.
When I am presented with the dialogue box for the reporting module it asks for a server and a database, I have tried the following :
after successfully connect Access to the Server I want to add a table. I got an error message:
With this version of MS Office Access you are not able to make any drafts because this version of SQL server you are connected to does not support this. Check the MS Office update website for the newest downloads.
You habe connected to a version of SQL server which is newer than SQL server 2000.
Versions:
SQL Server runs on a MS Server 2003 SP1
Access 2003 (11.6566.6568 SP2) on an MS XP Pro SP1
all on actual patch level. Any ideas what's wrong?
