I try to create a view in Access Project but in design view I only see "all columns" in a table. The individual columns are not listed. This happens only with a certain SQL Server database. Any suggestions ?
View 1 RepliesHello,
I've created a Report Model Project that can be used by Report Builder to generate ad-hoc reports. I'm trying to create a connection string in my Report Server Project that points to the Report Model Project data source view.
All I can do is create a regular datasource, which bypasses the metadata contained in the Data Source View.
Basically I want my Report Server Project and my Report Builder reports to leverage the same metadata. Is this possible? If so how do I get the connection string?
Thanks!!

Write a CREATE VIEW statement that defines a view named Invoice Basic that returns three columns: VendorName, InvoiceNumber, and InvoiceTotal. Then, write a SELECT statement that returns all of the columns in the view, sorted by VendorName, where the first letter of the vendor name is N, O, or P.
This is what I have so far,
CREATE VIEW InvoiceBasic AS
SELECT VendorName, InvoiceNumber, InvoiceTotal
From Vendors JOIN Invoices
ON Vendors.VendorID = Invoices.VendorID

For some reason in a Team Foundation Team Project that has multiple project types (SSRS, SSIS, WebSite, C# Business DLL...), the SSIS project makes itself the startup project to the team project. If I explicitly set another project as the startup project to the team project and then select an SSIS package in the SSIS project in the team project, the SSIS project becomes the startup project automatically.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have recently moved from Access mdb to Access project.
I have found that for the same data, an MSDE database occupies more than double the size of an Acess database!
I had upsized a database with a table, comprising about 200,000 rows.
Where as the Access database occupied 40 mb, the MSDE database occupied 120 mb!.
Tried shrinking the database and reduced it to 113 mb.
Is this to be accepted?

Hi all, we currently have an access databse with linked odbc connections to an SQL server database.
Performance wise I don't think this is great.
Anyone have any general information about doing an upgrade to a micrsoft project database, and what are the pros and cons of access projects compared to Access databases with linked tables.
About 30 -40 users currently hammer the access front end during the day.
Not sure if this is the right place to ask but I'll try...
I have to execute an integration service package in an .adp project. In other words, click of the button on the adp window has to start a package or a job.

How do I grant a user access to a particular project? I have set up some reports and want other users to look at them as a template to build their reports and keep getting projectname.rptproj.user is denied.

Most of our users are using MS Access project to work with our data in SQL Server 2005. The problem we have is that in order for them to access the tables they need to be given db_datareader and db_datawriter permission on the database. Our goal is not to give access to the tables themselves but to views. Therefore, we've created several views and placed them into a particular schema. Now we want to give access to that schema, but when we assign select, delete, insert, and update to that schema user in ms access project aren't able to view these tables. When we give them db_datareader permission they are able to see the views but in parentencies does not show the correct schema; therefore, when you try to open that view it errors out saying it doesn't exist. Also since they now have db_datareader they are also able to access the other view and tables in the database.
What we are looking to do is give our Access Project users the permission to link to SQL Server 2005 views by schema only.
Sorry if this is the wrong forum for this, but was as close as I could get. I am an amateur stumbling thru this to "learn by doing". I am trying to set up an access front end for a SQLExpress database, currently all local for experimenting. Trying to import Excel data to a table in the database, using Access "get external data" function. I get errors and the data wont import. Error message won't give me a clue to what is wrong. All fields are named the same. If I convert the excel to a csv or tab delineated, it imports correctly. Just not the excel. Any ideas?

I am getting the overflow? message (MS SQL Server Database Wizard) on attempt of creating a project in MS Access using SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. I am actually able to open an existing DB.
I was wandering why is this happening and what can I do to create such a project
Thank you
hi there,
we canīt open most of the sql server tables from our Access
project any more, which has to be related to collation or
extended property problems.
trying to open any table will result in the information
"The stored procedure has been executed but did not return
any records" after the first try
and later on nothing will happen any more; tables wonīt
open.
basically this started to happen after recreating the sql
database due to resolution 1 in Microsoft Knowledge Base
Article - 318989:
collation of the server is Latin1_General_CI_AS
collation of the old database was
SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS, which led to the error
described in the article.
collation of the new database is set to <Database
Standard>, now i have the problems described above.
anybody some good help on that?
ps: we canīt really rebuild the user database all the
time, because we got flight data in about 4 billion
records in there, so we will need anything quick and
easy...
thanks

Hi,
When using an Access Project 2002 connected with SQL Server Express in OLE DB it's impossible to work in creation mode. A message explains that this Access version is not compatible with this SQL version.
Is there a service pack ?
Hello,
I have an Access .adp file that's connected to a SQL Server. I can run small queries just fine, but some of my queries take several minutes to run. When I try to run a lengthy query I get an error message that says "Timeout Expired".
I believe that this error is the one that is described here on MSDN online:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/243464
I tried to implement a solution similar to this in .adp file by creating this subroutine:
----------------------------------------------
Sub BypassTimeout()
CurrentProject.Connection.CommandTimeout = 0
MsgBox "The subroutine ran"
End Sub
-----------------------------------------------
I know that the subroutine is running because I'm seeing the message in the MsgBox statement. (This sub runs everytime the .adp file is opened).
However, doing this still doesn't seem to prevent me from getting the "Timeout Expired" error message when I try to run a lengthy query.
Does anyone know a way around this? I believe the default timeout is 30 seconds ... but SURELY microsoft did not intend for .adp files to not be able to run queries that are longer than 30 seconds.
I have a project need to store the information of reservation. For example, somebody wants to reserve a laptop. She will sign in the date from calender to use.

I have conntected an Access 2003 project to a database in SQL Express and when I try to create a new view or stired procedure I get the message
This version of Microsoft Access doesn't support design changes with the version of Microsoft SQL Server your project is connected to. See the Microsoft Office Update Web site for the latest information and downloads (on the Help menu, click Office on the Web). Your design changes will not be saved.
Is it a limitation or have I not got the appropriate permissions set up
And if it is a limitation does it matter

Looks like the Office 2003 MS Access has no support for creating a linked server and implement design changes. While you could link to the SQL 2005 tables, which show up as queries in MS Access 2003, any further use of the linked queries are not supported unless the Access 2003 version came out after the SQL 2005 release. What kind of an update is needed, or fix is needed so that Access projects can be developed?
View 6 Replies View RelatedThere is a form in an Access Project (.adp, Access front end with SQLServer) for entering data into a table for temporary storing. Then, byclicking a botton, several action stored procedures (update, append) shouldbe activated in order to transfer data to other tables.I tried to avoid any coding in VB, as I am not a professional, but I havefound a statement in an article, that, unlike select queries, form's InputProperty can't be used for action queries. Therefore, parameters can bepassed to action stored procedure only by using ADO through VB.As I'm not very familiar with VB, I had to search in literature.So, this is a solution based on creating Parameter object in ADO and thenappending values to Parameter collection.Please, consider the following procedure I created for passing parametersfrom form's control objects (Text boxes) to a stored procedureDTKB_MB_UPDATE:Private Sub Command73_Click()Dim cmd As ADODB.CommandSet cmd = New ADODB.Commandcmd.ActiveConnection = CurrentProject.Connectioncmd.CommandText = "DTKB_MB_UPDATE"cmd.CommandType = adCmdStoredProcDim par As ADODB.ParameterSet par = cmd.CreateParameter("@DATE", adDBTimeStamp, adParamInput)cmd.Parameters.Append parSet par = cmd.CreateParameter("@BATCH_NUMBER", adVarWChar, adParamInput, 50)cmd.Parameters.Append parSet par = cmd.CreateParameter("@STATUS", adVarWChar, adParamInput, 50)cmd.Parameters.Append parSet par = cmd.CreateParameter("@DEPARTMENT", adVarWChar, adParamInput, 50)cmd.Parameters.Append parSet par = cmd.CreateParameter("@PRODUCTION", adVarWChar, adParamInput, 50)cmd.Parameters.Append parSet par = cmd.CreateParameter("@SAMPLING_TYPE", adVarWChar, adParamInput,50)cmd.Parameters.Append parcmd.Parameters("@DATE") = Me.DATEcmd.Parameters("@BATCH_NUMBER") = Me.BATCH_NUMBERcmd.Parameters("@STATUS") = Me.STATUScmd.Parameters("@DEPARTMENT") = Me.DEPARTMENTcmd.Parameters("@PRODUCTION") = Me.PRODUCTIONcmd.Parameters("@SAMPLING_TYPE") = Me.SAMPLING_TYPEcmd.ExecuteSet cmd = NothingEnd SubUnfortunately, when clicking on the botton, the following error apears:"Run-time error'-2147217913 (80040e07)':Syntax error converting datetimefrom character string."Obviously, there is some problem regarding parameter @DATE.

One single table when openen from a MSAccess project file gives error:
The setting for DecimalPlaces property must be from 0 through 15, 255 for Auto (default).
After which the table is openend normally. I don't recall setting Decimal Places to the table. The only numeric fields are two INTs that are also ID's (PK and FK). This error occurs also when recreating the db project. These fields can not be edited eitther from MSAccess nor Enterprise Manager.
What can be done on the table, resp. MSAccess to change this?
Any idea why I cannot see (in Enterprise Manager) all the coulmns of a selected table? All I get is * all columns - not each one, meaning I cannot select individual columns in my new view. Could it be the version? I am running SQL 7.0 SP1
Thanks
I'm having an odd issue with SQL Server. What happens is the following: I create view1. I then create view2 which uses view1. I then create view3 which uses view2. Then, if I make a change in View1, my other views are messed up. What happens is that columns in view3 (and view2) will be switched. Therefore, if a crystal report for example references view3, I'll suddenly get an exception due to a field in the cyrstal report thinking it's going to get an integer but gets a date instead. It's as if the columns were moved around. Is this a known issue with SQL Server 2000? Has someone else had that here? Has someone resolved that here? thx.

I have a view that I created from 4 SQL tables in order to query data for a report. I can't change the format of columns in the original table but would like to format the columns in the view as a different data type.
The original table has the values formated as varchar, the info in the columns is numbers and I would like to have the values changed to decimal when the view is queried.
Is this even possible? Any help would be appreciated.
Hi All,
I have a simple question. If I have a view that query from joined multiple tables and return a lot of columns (more than 100). If I run a simple query just return several columns (e.g. 4-5 columns), will SQL Server query all columns first from all joined table? or can SQL Server query only necessary column from related table?
Does anyone have idea how to join table that can reflect both left and right join?
Table A Table B
Column1 Column2 Column3 Column4 Column1 Column2 Column 3 Column5

B Feb 3 C Mar 4
B Mar 4 C Apr 3
C Apr 2 D May 2
E Mar 1
Result Table
Column1 Column2 Column3 Column4 Column 5
A Jan 6 (= 5+1) xxx yyyy
B Feb 3
B Mar 4
C Mar 4
C Apr 5 (= 2+3)
D May 2
E Mar 1
So the result table is a join on column1 and column2 (both are primary key), with column3 is a sum aggregate. Table A has additional column4 and Table B has additional column5, so quite difficult to union (In fact, there are a lot of column differences between table).
Thanks for the help.
Hi,
I'm setting up Transaction Replication b/w SQL Server 2K and SQL Server 2K5.
I have published Tables, Views and SPs as articles.
One of the views has more than 300 columns. So when i try to replicate it, I'm encountering the
following error Message.
"Error 20068: The article cannot be created on table because it has more than 255 columns."
When a view can be created with more than 255 cokumns, why the problem arises when we replicate
it?
Can any one help me on this?
Thanks,
SBR.
