Open Access97 MDE With Access2000
Aug 4, 2005
...not too much in the archives on this one, so any help appreciated...
We have an Access97 MDE with a split backend that is shared over a network.
Most of our users have WinNT installed and the Access application works fine. We have a user who has Win2K and Office2k and every time this person tried to launch the Access97 app, he receives the following error:
The database that you are trying to open or convert is currently in use, or you do not have permission to open it exclusively.
I have checked the Security Permissions for that user and he actually has full rights (Admin) for the Network folder.
Anyone else experienced this ?

My organization recently upgraded from Office97 to Office2000. A database that we had on 97 is giving us errors when we try to run it under 2000. I have been able to fix some of the errors. This one has me stumped.
I'm getting an error 13; type mismatch and it is calling out this line:
Set Mydb = DBEngine.Workspaces(0).Databases(0)
Any help is greatly appreciated. This is the complete function:
Function RegistrationData(Reqinfo As String) As String
On Error GoTo error_registrationdata:
Dim Mydb As DAO.Database
Dim MyRS As DAO.Recordset
Set Mydb = DBEngine.Workspaces(0).Databases(0)
Set MyRS = Mydb.OpenRecordset("REGISTRATION")
Select Case Reqinfo
Case "CommandName"
RegistrationData = MyRS.COMMAND
Case "CommandCode"
RegistrationData = MyRS.COM_CODE
Case "CommandAddress"
RegistrationData = MyRS.COM_ADDRESS
Case "CommandManager"
RegistrationData = MyRS.COM_MANAGER
Case "CommandPOC"
RegistrationData = MyRS.COM_POC

RegistrationData = MyRS.COM_PHONE

RegistrationData = MyRS.COM_FAX

The Access2000 database is on a server located on our office network. Our office has a mixture of WindowsXP and Windows2000 as the operating system. We are using Novell Netware for the office network. I am wondering if the Novell Network is "confusing" Access???The check box option to open Access2000 as a multiuser database ischecked. Also "No locks" is checked. When the database is opened weget the "LBD" file with "access.lockfile.9". When I look at this file,I see my name and the word "Admin", which seems normal. However, ifanother user attempts to open the database, they can't and they get amessage that another user is using the program.According to Micorsoft, Access must be in a shared directory. Sinceeveryone can read/write/create/delete to the directory it appears "shared".Nevertheless, is it possible that the Novell Network has a conflictwhich prevents Access from being shared? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I took the database home (to my home network) and had limited sharing success. First, the folder that access is in must be fully labeled as shared, read/write privileges by themselves don't seem to allow multiuser access. Second, after closing the database, I would get a "can't find" the database message from windows explorer even though the file was visible.

I'm familiar with SQL but not with Access97 - some wierd syntax here!
I'm creating a Query that is to Delete records from a table depending on a non-key field in a second table.
I first tried an INNER JOIN
DELETE Activity_Preferences.*
FROM Activity_Preferences INNER JOIN Activity_Key
Activity_Preferences.Activity_Key=Activity_Key.Act ivity_Key AND Activity_Key.Complete=1;
which was initially accepted but then complained about the INNER JOIN after I went in a second time to 'fix' the error.
I've finally got the following syntax accepted:-
DELETE Activity_Preferences.*
FROM Activity_Preferences, Activity_Key
WHERE Activity_Preferences.Activity_Key=Activity_Key.Act ivity_Key AND Activity_Key.Complete=1;
But when executed still gets the following error (same as for the INNER JOIN):-
'Operation must use an updatable query'.
What else is needed?
J.

I have a multi user 97 DB which also has a 2000 front end with tables linked to the 97 version. The 97 version won't open on 97 machines, 'unknown database format'......at first I thought someone had converted it but it doesn't look like that has been done. When I open on a 2000 machine there is no option to 'convert to a previous version'.
I have run compact and repair on both DB's.
Any ideas what the problem could be.
Thanks

I am a long time user of ACCESS but use ACCESS97 for specific reasons. Have ACCESS97 operating on a PC with Win2000 and WinXP Home. Recently had to buy a new PC with WinXP Professional. Cannot seem to install the software. In the process get some error messages. First,
"An error has occurred at changing workgroup data base"
I click OK then get,
couldn't create SYSTEM.MDW file; after setup completes, reboot and run Workgroup Administrator before you run this application
I don't know what to do next. Do not know what the Workgroup Administator is. Two questions:
1. Is it possible to run ACCESS97 on this OS?
2. If so, can you advise on how to do the installation successfully?
I appreciate any help that anyone can provide. Cheers!

Hi All,
I've been working on many other domains but very new to Access world. Anyway,coming to the point.I have a database built on Access and the reporting is being done on Excel.Till now,there is no connection between both.Users are doing copy/paste procedure for reporting in excel.i tried to connect both and get the data directly in to excel with out copy/paste procedure(i.e., just by refreshing the excel sheet would do). But when i create an ODBC connection between them, it says that the required permissions are not given to you by the administrator.I'm trying to create a file DSN.so,can anyone tell me what exactly i need for this?is it the admin rights of access database (or) the admin rights of the folder where the mdb file is located?little confused on this.I already have the admin rights on the folder where the mdb file is located but still getting the error.admin rights of the datasbe cannot be given because no one knows the password of administrator ID of Access database(little funny but it is the fact!)
can anyone please let me know how can i get through this problem as this would be the crucial thing for this project.
Regards,
Ravindra

I bought a database about 10 years ago and still uses it. Since then we changed our address and need to update all the forms as the address is hard coded into the forms. When I tried to modify any thing it tells me I don't have the Permission. I tried to contact the programmer, but he's been out of business years ago and was unable to contact him.
How do I reset the permission on MDB? I tried Tools->Security->User/GroupPremissions and it only shows Admin user with "Read Design" checked on all object names. And if I check on any other permission it says I need administer permission.
I tried upvmsa2k.zip "Users' passwords viewer v3.2" and it shows admin user with garbled up password. Also tried MDWRecovery, but it says there's no user or password.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.

I noticed that I did not put a question mark next to this the first time I posted it, so maybe it was not clear that I was hoping for a response. Here I go again. We are trying to reinstall Access97 (the OS is Office XP) and having problems getting all of the drivers to install. Using the "Add or Remove Programs" in the Control Panel to make sure that all drivers have been installed, it says that the Excel drivers are installed, though it is grey, which I take to mean that it is not completely installed. On the computer in question, it says that the database drivers take up 1329k and the excel drivers are" installed" (no size listed). On my computer, on which the excel drivers are available, it lists the database drivers as 2009k and the excel drivers 258k (it does not say "installed"). Anybody have any ideas?

does anyone know if it's possible to "install" the runtime version of access 97 (we do have developer's edition, so can distribute the run-time version) to a thumb drive so that it would run without having to install it on each computer that one was going to use the thumb drive on - is there any add'l software that would make this possible/ - the application is for figure skating clubs - with distribution of up to 1000 copies - the idea is to distribute them to member clubs and various officers could use the application and exchange up-to-date data by passing on the thumb drive - this also would hpefully avoid all installation problems with pc's having various versions of access already installed, etc. - thanks for any suggestions- jim

I am importing a text file into Access97 using fixed width with import specifications that specify NO to indexing. However, when I run the Macro, it automatically indexes the first field (which is a long integer).
Why? How do I import the text file without having the index automatically added?

I am working on a report in Access2000 which is getting information from several tables via a number of queries.
I am using nested IIf() functions to combine text formatted data in a calculated query field before using it in a report.
One such IIf() function is
Desc_col: IIf([HOVR - UDP].[SERVICE] Is Not Null,[DA] & " " & [SEQ] & " " & [TYPE] & [MO] & " " & [SUB] & " - " & [HOVR - UDP].[SERVICE],
IIf([MinOfCCT] Is Not Null,"I/O DIST CAB " & [UDP - JC CIRCUITS-05-F].[PWR] & " - CCTS " & [MinOfCCT] & " thru " & [MaxOfCCT],IIf([DESCRIPTIO] Is Not Null,[DESCRIPTIO],"Spare")))
When I have tried to do the same thing with date fields it does not work. The function is fine as long as it is not nested.
That is
Rev_col: IIf([Rev_HOVR] Is Not Null,[Rev_HOVR],"")
and
Rev_col: IIf([Rev_Elec_equip] Is Not Null,[Rev_Elec_equip],"")
both work.
But when I combine them into a nested function
Rev_col: IIf([Rev_HOVR] Is Not Null,[Rev_HOVR],IIf([Rev_Elec_equip] Is Not Null,[Rev_Elec_equip],""))
I get an error message "! Data type mismatch in criterial expression"
There is no data mismatch in the original tables from which the information was extracted. The dates are all in DATE/TIME and set to "General"format in the tables.
I am wondering if I will have to use Visual Basic function to combine these fields. However that poses a problem. When I've looked at this I find that runtime VB is no longer available in Access and I do not want to go out and buy it on the offchance that it will work.
Can anyone tell me if there is another solution to my problem?

Is there a good replacement for the use of local forms in an Access database? We have a large A97 replicated database application that we are trying to update. We use local forms for data output. Since these are no longer available we are looking for a workaround.
many thanks

Hi,
I want a user to click the report, and an input box appears asking for a product number. This product number is used in a recordset (VBA code in the report) to fill the text boxes in the Detail section.
Code:Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer)Dim rst As DAO.RecordsetDim db As DAO.DatabaseDim itemCode As StringSet db = CurrentDb()itemCode = InputBox("Enter the Item Number", "Complete Catlog Prices")Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("SELECT * FROM [Catalog Prices Complete] WHERE Prefixprodno = '" & itemCode & "'", dbOpenDynaset)Do Until rst.EOF Me!txtCat = rst("Volume") 'error 02448 cannot assign to this 'Me!txtPrice = rst("Price") rst.MoveNextLooprst.CloseEnd Sub
I'm sure my text box is called txtCat though. Is it an array I should try to fill? If so, any suggestions :S
Thanks,

Dear Guys,
How to Establish the connection between Ms-Access2000 & Oracle using DAO Connection through Code?.
I created one table in Oracle and I created User-DSN in ODBC.
I linked that oracle table into Ms-Access MDB using Link table option in ms-Access.
Now, Whenever I open that mdb, we need to establish the ODBC connectivity automatically through code (I mean, we need to refresh automatically).
I need to hardcode all the information in the Ms-Access code.
My User DSN Name: abcd
Oracle Database Name: abcd
Schema Name(User Name): abcd
password: abcd

I have a report based on a query that has data for many dates. At the moment I have put a specific date in the criteria of the query so that I could build the report format. So it now displays all the data for the date i have in the criteria section. I will need to run this report several times per week so the specified date (and corresponding data in the report) will need to be changed to a new date when I open the report i.e. when I open my report I want to show data in the report only for a specified date.
Can I create a date parameter box open up when I open the report? Can I create a form with a button that when I click will open the report displaying data for that date? What would be the best way?I also need to display the specified date on the report.

Problem:
Visual Basic run-time error 7792: You can't open a subform when it is also open in Design view.
I have a subform with properties for SourceObject, LinkMasterFields, LinkChildFields changing according to objects and events in the master form.
The subform was bound to a query before which meant that the subform load event was happening as soon as the master form is loaded. I needed to restrict the subform loading until a certain point so I removed the SourceObject property for the masterform's subform. The subform on the master form is now Unbound.
(This is because I'm now running some code on the FormLoad event for the subform which needs to be restricted until the LinkMasterFields and LinkChild Fields properties have been assigned correctly otherwise it takes ages to load.)
Now I'm getting the above error. Obviously, i do not have the subform open anywhere in design view. No Visual Basic windows are open. I've closed the db, closed access, reopened it and clicked on nothing except the masterform. The error occurs when I raise the event in the master form which assigns the sourceobject property to the subform, i.e.
Me.sfmQryAllOV.SourceObject = "sfmQryAllOV"
Can anyone help me? I've googled this but finding no answers.
