Error Establishing Connection With MS Access Database!!
Apr 9, 2006
hi guys,
this is my first thread on this forum...,, i am new out here..
i am not able to establish a connection with a MS Access database. I am using DSN Connection for it..
The error that i am getting is...//
Error Type:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80004005)
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file '(unknown)'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data.

I am having trouble establishing a subform connection (relationship) to a main form. I am using Access 2003.
I am creating a medical record database where I already have one form / subform relationship established that works. However, I created another form where I want to indicate the Physician(s) information within the main form and his specialties within a subform. I need to use the subform because one physician can have more than one specialty.
My fields within two tables are: Doctor (Table) ID Doctor First Name (Key) Doctor Last Name (Key) Doctor Address Doctor City Doctor State Specialty (Related Field)
Doctor Specialty (Table) ID (Key) Doctor First Name Doctor Last Name Specialty (Related Field)
The problem I can’t establish the relationship.:confused: Also, when I look at my relation diagram – does each table have to relate to another? Can I have two separate relationships indicated?
I have MDB database linked to SQL SERVER through VPN connection.I created links to the sql server Links are dsnless..Everything works fine but when I lost VPN connection or sql connection has been broken I can't refresh links to the tables.I receive message 3146 sql connection failed..I must close database and start again...
I tried different methods like ado,dao, and vba docmd.transferdatabase,aclink... but no success, table cant be relinked.
Only way I can relink is to change ip adress in conn.string
E.g. 192.124.0.2 (1st ip- router server ip) and after connection failed i can use 192.124.0.32 (2nd ip - server local ip) and that's it if i lost connection for the 3rd time... i must restart application.
It seems that access database keep the previous connection..how to reset or drop database connection to the sql server and refresh links to the tables with vba code without closing access database...
Hi can anyone help me, im struggling to get my database connected to my site, it is connected to dreamweaver through ODBC but will not open, the problem i believe is in the lines of cole in bold. Any help would be much appreciated.

I have been trying solve this problem for a few days. however, the best i can come into is the above code, however , the following error still approached me.

Cannot start your application. The workgroup information file is missing or opened exclusively by another user.
old Access database that's been upgraded through to Access 2000 or 2003 (probably 2000), but not beyond. Was rebuilt in Access 2003 format around 2006/2007 (by someone else who no longer works here). Being used now in Access 2007 and 2010. Uses DSN to connect to SQL Server backend. Last week it was SQL Server 2005, moved the back end on Saturday to SQL Server 2012. Changed the DSN when moving to the new server. But I don't think this has to do with the DSN (it's getting data just fine).
There's a data entry form. User enters a Generator ID, event triggers it to look for the details for the generator and load them into a generator subform. After it loads the information into the subform, and before the user does anything else, it throws "This connection cannot be used to perform this operation. It is either closed or invalid in this context."It triggers post update of the Generator ID:
Code:
Private Sub txtGeneratorID_AfterUpdate() On Error GoTo Handle_err Me.txtGeneratorID = UCase(Me.txtGeneratorID) Call FillHandlerSubform(Me.subGeneratorInfo, Me.txtGeneratorID.Value) If GetGenStat(Me.txtGeneratorID.Value) = "N" Or GetGenStat(Me.txtGeneratorID.Value) = "OB" Then MsgBox "Warning Generator Status! " & UCase(Me.txtGeneratorID.Value) & vbCrLf & _ "This Generator has a status of N or OB!", vbCritical, "Bad Generator Status!" Cancel = True End If
[code]....
It doesn't throw this error in the development copy of the database, dev copy works just fine. It only throws it from the production version. They are located on the same network, just in different folders. They are pointing to the same database on the same SQL Server using a DSN file located inside the folder where the .mdb file is located (this is a change in the front end, prior to this it was using a DSN on each individual machine, but I changed it to stop that).
I have access application which was running fine recently but for some reason everytime I run it now it gives an error on the adodb connection string saying compile error.
Its doing this on every adodb connection I have in my database.
I have tried registering the dao an ado dlls but still the problem persists.
I think the damage to my database is not recoverable, but i'm still hoping. My computer crashed when I was working on my dtabase and after restart the db is not working anymore :( If I try to do something, anything (!!!) all I got is an error message: "Error accessing file. Network connection may have been lost." But the db is on my computer, I don't use it over the network. What can I do to make it working again? Thanx!
I have a combo box that is populated by a query. The problem is that the query pulls data from a different database than the rest of the form and it prompts the user for a password to access this database. Is there any way of coding the password into the form so that the connection to the database is opened automatically without prompting the user? Thanks.
I'm trying to use a banner ads .asp program called Admentor. My problem is that this uses DNS less connection and I can't get this working on both the pages showing the ads and the admin panel.
I know it's the path to the database that causes this. If I change this to suite the webpages showing ads, it work's, and if I modify it to suite the admin panel it work's. But not both at the same time.
Should'nt this path be relative to the sites root ?
when using this string, the webpages showing banners is working, but when clicking on these, the site calles a redirect .asp page that also uses this database connection. Then it fails, since this page is located in another folder in the site and therefore also gets another path to the database.
How can I get this to be a relative path working on all pages not been worried about folders, subfolders and correct paths to the base ???
hi, below are the codings i input. I just cannot get the connection to open. error is at "objConn.open" I have also given the user full access right. folder attribute however, always reverts back to "read-only" whenever i try to turn "read-only" off. Please help!
Set objConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") Set objRs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
Hi, I went to school over 4 years ago learning ASP but I forgot almost everything.
I am able to setup a connection to a an Ms Access file and get information using Windowx XP's IIS.
I need to change the code where the location of the Access file is on my computer to my webhost.
In other words, I have uploaded all the pages and the Access db file but now the pages can't find the Access db because the file was original on my computer in a certain folder. Now that it is uploaded, I need to change the location where it searches for the db from my computer to my webhost.
I have not dealt with ASP for almost 5 years ago.
Please give advice, or websites or 3rd party programs that can do this for me.
I am trying to build a webiste where you enter the username and login then be able to retrieve information or update, or add new or delete from the Access db.
This should be a simple problem for most you professionals out there.
I apologize first of all if this question is bounced up and down through out the forum all the time, and if there's already a topic on this, then it'd be perfect for me. But im not having any luck.
I do not know how to upload my database in a way that it will work when i try to use a page through microsoft frontpage to display results from it.
What are the accurate steps into creating a database connection? Thanks a bunch
Really don't know the answer to this question and I thought I'd come to the experts. I have created an Access database that I use to push & pull data from an SQL database through linked tables. I created an ODBC connection on my PC and set it so the links keep the username and password for the ODBC connection. All that works great...Now my question - Is it possible to somehow "store" the ODBC connection within the Access database so that I don't have to go to every PC that is going to be running this database and create an ODBC connection? The Access database and the SQL database both exist on our network and all those that will be using it have access to both. If someone has the answer I would really appreciate it.
Im doing a login page for my website, and i am having trouble connecting to the DB:
'Database connection info and driver strCon = "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};uid=;pwd=letmein; DBQ=" & Server.MapPath(strAccessDB)
where strAccessDB = "cs334-45/Kosy/Kosy.mdb"
cs334-45 is my computer name in the virtual directory.
Im getting this error:
Server.MapPath(), ASP 0172 (0x80004005) The Path parameter for the MapPath method must be a virtual path. A physical path was used. /Kosy/check_user.asp, line 21
I dont understand. I thought that the virtual directory was mapped to the physical directory anyway? So why do I have to enter a virtual path?
We have split a database and have about 6 users connected to a gigabit switch. There is a noticeable delay of about 5 to 15 seconds when we search by an account name. We are working with a split form, where it has the database records listed at the bottom half of the screen.
Is there a way to improve the performance? I tried a persistent connection, but it didn't seem to work and would occasionally get an error message.
I have a back end 2002 DB. I would like to disallow access to this through odbc connection. Is there some way this can be achieved? Thie directory where it is located is unfortnately cannot be restricted as the front end mde also resides there.
I am new to the use of access. I have defined the database in the dsn and named that 'abexp', now when i go to access open the database and then create a module and try to establish a connection to the abexp, it gives me an error - database has been placed in a state by an unknown user that prevents it from being opened or locked. Can someone tell me what am i doing that is incorrect over here. i am trying to get convert from sql server to access.
I am looking to automate the process of linking my Access DB with an ODBC connection to an SQL DB with VBA (unless there's an easier way to do it?) - some sample code - if this is possible at all?
we have Oracle 11g as main database and for viewing purpose, we have created an mdb (Access 2007) using Link tables via ODBC connection (system DSN).While querying, count queries are working fine with accurate record counts but, all select queries are not working fine. It filters and displays with wrong records. There is no issue in query building.how to get correct records through odbc connection to Oracle database.
please help I am working with access database I have limited experience with access. I am unable to figure this particular problem. Microsoft access can't append all the records in the append Query microsoft access set 0 field to null set to convertion failure and didn't add 2 to records to the table due key violation 0 record due to key lock violation

I have created a db for a nonprofit counseling org. I had created the first half, mostly administrative tasks, called Phase1, and put the BE on a network drive and the FE on multiple users. Now in developing the clinical portion, Phase2, I linked to four of the tables in Phase1 BE file.
Now I tried to split Phase2 the same way as Phase1 and got an error "Subscript out of Range". I think because of already having some external links in it. I checked for the file and Access actually created the BE file for the new phase2, all of the tables are in it minus the four I was linking to. But, access didn't create a FE file. The original still has all of the objects, tables and forms etc. My question is; can I link to the tables in the new BE file even though those tables still exist in the original file?
