I just finished a week long database project. All ready to show the users - who have 2007. I have 2010. I can't get it to open on their PCs even though it's saved as 2007 set. So I try to import it into 2007 - nope no going. Can I install 2010 runtime on their PC and have that database automatically open with it ....
On trying to import an Excel 2007 file into Access 2007 I get the following:
1) Choose "External Data," Import, Exce 2) Select small file in MS Excel 2007 format. 3) Click on Import the source data into a new table ... 4) Choose OK
Immediately get "Microsoft Office Access has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution to the problem..." This message never resolves, so I have to click 'Cancel'.
Then I get "Microsoft Office Access is trying to recover your information..." I have to click "Cancel" here as well and then kill MS Access in Task Manager.
Event Viewer gives following message, which is of no help: "ID: 2, Application Name: Microsoft Office Access, Application Version: 12.0.6211.1000, Microsoft Office Version: 12.0.6215.1000. This session lasted 710 seconds with 120 seconds of active time. This session ended with a crash."
Trying to import a small Excel 2003 file leads the same result. The same happens with a CSV file.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Office 2007 as well. I am using Vista Ultimate.
I have MS Access on my PC however wish to move the accdb file to a network location to allow other network users to have access to it.
Unfortunately a few of the other users do not have MS Access. Is it possible for them to still open the database without any admin or background - I would like them to be able to use the forms and 'front end'.
I am trying to make my form open directly when i open my access file.accdb. When i double click on my .accdb can it be done to open directly and only my form. I found a way to open my form but it opens the access program in the background.
Hi I am having trouble trying to import (manually) Excel 2007 spreadsheets into an Access 97 database on Windows XP.
I have an Excel 2007 workbook saved as .xlsx. When I try to import it by changing the "files of type" drop down list to "Excel" and typing in the file name of the 2007 file with the .xlsx file extension I get an error message
“The Wizard is unable to access information in the file ‘Filename’. Please check that that the file exists and is in the correct format.
I have changed the registry to allow .xlsx files to be imported, but still get the error. I have changed the registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareMicrosoftJet3.5Engi nesTextDisabledExtensions To include .xlsx
Any ideas you may have would be greatly appreciated.
where "CustomerFormatted" is the sheet I am trying to import in to the "Customer" table.
The error I get is Run Time Error 3011, The MS Access engine could not find the object "CustomerFormatted" make sure its name is spelled correctly ....
Is there any other way I can import an excel sheet in to an access table?
Hi, I have been opening password protected access 2003 databases with ASP / ADO for years now. However now we have updated to office 2007 everything gone bottoms up.
I have an access 2007 database (newly made, not converted from 2003), and a fresh asp page. I've gotten the new connection string information for Access 2007 from the internet yet the page cannot open the database.
When I try to open the page the error i get is - "Not a valid password" - 80040e4d. I'm 100% sure the password is correct, the driver is right (the server has office 2007 installed, and the new access driver from the M$ website). Every page i've seen on the internet says that the code I'm using is correct, yet asp still can't open it.
If i remove the password from the database it opens fine, so it's not a corrupt database, or bad path in the code.
If you can shed any light on my problem I would be eternally grateful - been working on it for hours now!
I have created a database in Access 2010 and I am not able to open the same database in Access 2007. I have read somewhere that it is possible to open. I get the message, " Unrecognized database format". In Access options, the default file format is, "Access 2007".
I want to hide the top toolbars when my users open my database in Access 2007! i have an autoexec macro to maximise the window which gets rid of the navigation bar on the side but cant work out how to hide the top bar? do i need to write code? if so what code and where would i input it.. any help would be much appreciated...
I have a fully operational Visual Basic program that uses MS Office XP and it's related MS Access. Because of security concerns, I recently upgraded to MS Office 2007 and MS Access 2007. I can open MS Access 2007 using the shortcut on the desktop and run any of the database queries. When I try to run the Visual Basic program (called prjPathfinder) and open Access 2007, it says "Error 5: The type initializer for prjPathfinder.Upgrade Support threw an exception". It then shows the first form in prjPathfinder but does not open Access 2007. What am I missing?
When I open the report on XP/Access 2007, it works just fine.
When I open the exact same accdb with a Win7/A2007 machine, the report does not open. If I debug and display the error, a msgbox appears "The OpenReport action was canceled."
I have other bound reports and those open with XP/A2007 or Win7/A2007 just fine.
It makes me VERY nervous that the same exact ACCDB in A2007 runs differently on different OSs (XP vs Win7).

how can i see this data into access 2007 or excel 2007.i want to link these table data with excel 2007 or access 2007 but with above problem i can't do it
hello, is it possible to programmatically set or change the password to an accdb file from within an application? (my app is written in VB 6) i know this was possible in the old mdb format but what are the options for the new format? i must use the accdb format for security reasons.
I have a mdb access 2000 database that I want to convert to accdb. I can't for the life of me get it to work as when I try the save as access 2007 it always tells me I have the database open exclusively which is normal as I am the only user at the time when I want to convert it... not quite sure how I can open my database not exclusive? I have tried read only but doesn't work either...
I have a (Access Data Project) ADP project which was created in Access 2003.I need to convert it into an ACCDB file with Access 2007. How to do this besides exporting each and every table, query,report etc one by one ? I was hoping there was something where I could import or export the whole thing in one go.
I am trying to connect to an access database format 2003 from my access 2007 database. I would like to create a recordset from a table in the 2003 database and bind it to a listbox in my 2007 database.I tried to the following code that didn't work.
Code: Dim DNHConn As ADODB.Connection Dim Rs As ADODB.Recordset Dim connStr, xSource, xSys, xUsr, xPsw On Error GoTo errH
[code]....
When I try to execute that code, I get an error that the apllication can't start because the worgroup file is either missing or opened exclusive by another user.
Is there an easy way to convert an old ACCESS db from version 2003 to version 2010?
My ACCESS db is .mdb and I want to convert it to .accdb as version 2010. It has hundreds of modules that may take awhile to export. Exporting is the only way I know to transfer from one db to another.
Have an Access db created with Access 2003. Was not updated with Access 2007, and now need to work with it in Access 2010.
Saved the Access 2003 db, a *.mdb file as a *.accdb and imported the data from the *.mdb db.
The import failed and the error report and in the report the Issue Type Error and the Issue Type ID is ACCWeb107014. When I checked this error, the follow explanation was given. However, the tables have a PK.
ACCWeb107014Error text A Table should have a Primary Key and it should be a number with field size 'long' to be compatible with the Web.What it means The indicated table has one of the following problems:
The table does not have a primary key.The data type of the primary key is not Number.The primary key Field Size is not Long.
I am in the process of updating a database to 2010 (.accdb) and cannot get past a problem. We are using Access 2010.
I updated the back end data to .accdb with no problem. I can't link the front end to that data without updating the front end to .accdb as well. There are no tables in the front end.
I try to update the front end to /accdb and I get the error message 'You are trying to convert an encoded database. Decode the database, then try again.'
How do I decode the database? I tried setting a password and then unsetting it, but that made no difference. I have not previously encoded the database.
can't finish the update to .accdb data. The alternative is to stay with 2003 MDB data. Is that a bad thing?
We have a split A2010 accdb, and the backend is now 1.8Gb so I need to do something If I put each of the 4 main tables in 4 separate backend accdbs, will the fact that the frontend then needs to link to 4 accdbs in some way impact on performance? Another possibility (given that 90% of our work only needs the recent data) is that I split the 4 main tables into 'archive' and 'current' (= recent) tables, with all the 'archive' tables in one accdb and all the 'current' tables in another accdb: but that would make it more difficult to run reports etc over the entire data Putting the 4 main tables in 4 separate backend accdbs seems like the answer to me - but are there any other considerations to this.
I have a database with extension .accdb. When I open it, everything is locked. I can't access VB Editor, Navigation Pane, Ribbon, nothing. It just opens a form and the only thing that can be edited are the text boxes on the form. I can't use Shift when opening it, that does nothing. It does not prompt for a password when opening.
I'd like to have a custom icon for the accdb file for the users. I recall doing it for pre-2007 databases, but I can't figure out how to change the 2007 db. Is it possible with 2007?
