I have a standard shared Access DB application (i.e. central BE on the network, multiple users running their own copy of the FE on their local machine) Has been in production for a while, no major issues.
New user has been added in recent weeks. My error logger has picked up an error he hit earlier today - doesn't appear to have been fatal (he hasn't come to me with a problem, suggesting he just "OK"d the error prompt and continued on - I need to confirm this with him though...)
Error was 3343 "Unrecognized database format 'C:TempMyDBMyDB.accde'."
Can see it was tripped on a particular form which queries certain data into a subform (so he was obviously able to open the FE and connect to the BE fine; it was several steps down the road where the error has occurred).
One of our encoders experienced this error when trying to open the database (local). I tried to open it on my end and I could replicate the error she's getting. I have searched for possible solutions but to no avail. How to recover the corrupted database.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have made a database, splitted it and then made the front end as accde. After that I copied both Front end & back end files in a shared folder. It is working fine as long as I am using it from my computer, but when I go to the other computer and try to open the front end, it gives the message of Unrecognized format error. This problem is only with the accde file, all other files are opening except this.

I have my access database made using Access 2007.I have been working on this for about 6 months at work. I decide to make a copy of it to take home so I can work on it at home. At home I have Access 2013 and Access 2007. However when I try to open the copy I brought from work it gives me an error message saying "Unrecognized Database Format (File location and name..)"
View 6 Replies View RelatedI created a database for my Dad's farm and it was all going well until I have been away for a while. I ensured the DB was backed up properly before I left but he didn't know how to back it up himself apparently so now we are in trouble.
Anyway, one day he went to open the DB and got the "unrecognized database format" message and the file doesn't open at all. The DB was created in Access 2013 and has only ever been used in 2013 (though my Dad uses runtime as he doesn't have a full license like me).
There is a couple of months worth of data which would cause a real headache if it was lost so fixing the file is the best outcome if at all possible, I tried the "compact and repair" from inside access without the DB opened but got the same message. I noticed that there is 3rd party software online claiming to fix all access files but they sound a little too good to be true and a good source of infecting my computer with a virus.
I have Microsoft Access DataBase file 2007. I tried to open it I got an error message "unrecognized file format".
The machines are DELL Windows 7 32bits with Microsoft office 2007.
While this file is worked with DELL Windows 7 64its.
Why I got this error and how to solve it?
I have windows 7 and office 2003 installed.
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 have read through just about every post on this forum related to "Unrecognized Database errors" and have not found a solution to my direct problem.
Stats:
Database is running Access2K on all machines; db is on network location, no sharing issues or permission issues have been identified, no other databases in this network location have had this problem. also, we have tried compact-repair and also have tried re-creating the database and neither have proved successful.
I can open the database just fine if I am the only one opening it. If someone else tries to open it once I have it opened one of the following occurs:
1. Nothing. Hourglass appears for a split second, then nothing happens.
2. Error message "unrecognized database format "mydb.mdb"" appears. If I click OK and both users close the db, it can be opened just fine again by the first user. It doesn't matterwho opens it first, but the second user gets this message.
Any ideas why this is happening?
Thanks!
I have a query with the following SQL code:
Code:
SELECT Expanded_Equipment_List.ID, Expanded_Equipment_List.PlatformName, Expanded_Equipment_List.OrgName, Expanded_Equipment_List.ArchName, Expanded_Equipment_List.SystemName, Expanded_Equipment_List.SubSystemName,
[Code]....
Now this code works just fine. However, I am trying to make a graph with EoL values on the x axis, and a sum of QTY on the Y with SystemName in the legend. This is giving me a "The Microsoft Access database engine does not recognize 'FORMS!Main!cboArchitecture' as a valid field name or expression' error.
After some research, I have tried adding FORMS!Main!cboArchitecture in the query's parameters as text

Hi
Happy new year everyone,
I have designed a Access 2000 report which is getting data from a query. However when I run the report is asking to enter a parameter value which is Format$. Running simple the query is all fine but when running the report asks for this parameter and it seems that in does not like my formatting to display dollares values. I have in expression builder the following:
=Format$([Due_Date2],"mmmm yyyy",0,0)
My report is grouped on Dates formatted as month and year but all seems fine.
Does anyone know why is that or had a similar issue?
Thanks

I split a database (without first making a copy of it) on my local machine and put the front end on a shared network drive. now no one can open any of the forms since the back end is on my machine.
is there a way to undo this or to split the database on the network drive so that users can get in?
i want to avoid having to redo the database from the ground up.
I have a working database which runs fine in accdb mode. But when i compile it and run the accde file I get the error "The expression you entered has a function name that XXDB nameXX cant' find."The problem is that the autoexec macro cannot find the VBA public function that is called with runcode command.
The accde file is running in the same folder as the accdb. It is a split database, I am only working on the Front End..I have tried, amongst others:
- Creating a new vba module and copying all the functions across
- Renaming the target function
- I reckoned there was a corruption somewhere, so I created a blank database and imported all the form/code/etc across from the broken version, which imported fine. The accdb ran but the compiled version failed again
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?
In the database that I use at work sometimes when we OPEN it we get an immediate error saying out of memory, therefore we close it and reopen and all is good.
This is a problem when the average user logs on as they don't close it, they just continue on and then start experiencing issues.
I thought that the memory was supposed to clear when you close the database.
We run the debugger and no errors are ever found, we also run the compact and repair.
This can happen 1 in 10 or maybe 20 times when we open the database.
"The key or key combination ^{Break} in FunctionKey_SubForm has invalid syntax or is not allowed"
- -
The "FunctionKey_SubForm" is a macro in this database.
It only does it on my computer when I opens this specific database.
This database works fine (copied it elsewhere) on everyone elses computer and also when I use it one another computer, whether the database is on the server or on the C: drive.
Since it works fine on all other computers, it's a setting in Access which is throwing up the error (even if it is " invalid syntax or is not allowed"), not the database.
Database works fine after I click through it but it's irritating and I don't recall changing anything.
