General :: Database Or Object Is Read Only?

Aug 25, 2012

Been using XP all this time, just got a new computer with Windows 7. Still using old Access 2000, not my call to update as this is the decision of the guy who owns the database.

Anyways, I opened Access for the first time, just a blank database so I can set up the user account. When I go to Tools > Security > User and Group Accounts and try to assign a password to Admin, I get the error message that it cannot update because the database is read only.

Where did this come from? I have never seen this message before, and the person who owns the database has a couple computers with Windows 7 that I have set this up on and did not run into this issue.

I realize that there can be some compatibility issues with Windows 7 and Access 2000 but it has worked on other Windows 7 computers, and not using the virtual XP mode.

General :: Cannot Update - Database Or Object Is Read-only

Aug 24, 2013

I have 2 tables and from them I do a query called "Query_Dates". There, I created 4 calculated fields which compares fields of the two tables previously mentioned.

What I am trying to do is everytime the calculated fields are equal to "Diff", gets the value from the second table (ADHOC) and and puts it in the 1st table (Master_Table). In total there are 4 fields I would change depending on other 4 fields called (CheckRR, CheckQual, CheckProd, CheckCap).

The problem is that it gives me an error 3027, object is read-only.

Below, you can find the code.

Private Sub Comando27_Click()
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Dim rsd As DAO.Recordset
Dim supplierName As String
Set rsd = Application.CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Query_Dates", dbOpenDynaset)
Set rst = Application.CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Master_Table" , dbOpenDynaset)

[Code] .....

Cannot Update. Database Or Object Is Read-only - User Rights?!

May 7, 2007

Hi together.

I have a problem getting this error message "Cannot update. Database or object is read-only" in my Access form application.

The funny thing is, when i run this program under a Administrator account, it's working...but its not working with the User account.

Of course the User hast permission to this folder, it's just a folder on the "C:" drive.

Is there a special right i have to modify that the user can work on it?

thanks

Runtime Error 3027 Cannot Update Database Or Object Is Read Only

Sep 30, 2005

Hi

I'm having trouble with my database (Access 2000). I'm trying to export a file into a text file by clicking on a button. Below is the code. Where the code is in bold that is when the runtime error happens.

If i export the code manually by right click on the query > Export then this works, but for some reason by clicking on the button will not work.

Private Sub cmdExport_Click()
Dim sExportFilePath As String
sExportFilePath = DLookup("[DateExportLocation]", "tblSettings", "[ID]=1") ' Path if file to be exported
DoCmd.OpenQuery "qryUpDateTransmissionDateAndTime", acViewNormal, acEdit ' Update dates time
DoCmd.TransferText acExportDelim, "ExportFile", "qryExportFile", sExportFilePath
End Sub


I appreciate your help

Runtime Error 3027 Cannot Update, Database Or Object Is Read-only

Dec 20, 2006

I create a front end and back end that resides on the lan. Front has everything besides the table which resides on the back end. Front ends table are linked to the backend. I have two computer that i am testing it on. Both of them runs Access 2003 runtime and windows has been update to the latest version, both xp machine aswell.Both has user right to read and write to that directory on the lan. Ldr exist when either of them uses access file. The strange thing is when i run a command to copy some data from one table to another one. one of the machine give me the following error "3027 Cannot Update. database or object is read only". While on the other machine it runs flawless. Another weird thing is if i modified some values in table by using forms it works great on both so i am a bit clueless where the problems is. its seems my problem is copying from one table to another. i dont have problem modyfing one table. Here is the code i use to that halt my ms access database.


Dim dbs As Database, rsProposal As Recordset, TES As String, stdocname As String, stLinkCriteria As String

TES = Me![TESID]

If TES = DLookup("TESID", "Proposals", "TESID =" & "'" & TES & "'") Then
MsgBox "Proposal Already Exists for TES ID: " & vbCrLf & _
" " & TES, vbOKOnly, "Proposal Already Exists"
GoTo Image264_Click_Exit
Else
If MsgBox("Do You Really Want to Create" & vbCrLf & "a New Proposal for TES ID " & vbCrLf & " " & TES & " ?", 289, "Create New Proposal?") = vbOK Then
Set dbs = CurrentDb
Set rsProposal = dbs.OpenRecordset("Proposals")
With rsProposal
.AddNew
![Long_Desc] = Me![Description]
![Short_Desc] = Me![Opportunity]
![Dest_Site] = Me![Install Site]

![Date_Completed] = Me![Close Date]
![Status] = Me![Status]
.Update
.Close
Set rsProposal = Nothing
dbs.Close
Set dbs = Nothing
End With
stLinkCriteria = "[TESID] = " & "'" & TES & "'"
stdocname = "Form Prop - Detail"
DoCmd.OpenForm stdocname, , , stLinkCriteria
DoCmd.Close acForm, "Form TES - Detail"
End If
End If

"Cannot Update. Database Or Object Is Read-only" On Import.

Jul 27, 2005

I'm sure I've missed something obvious but...

I'm getting the above error when I try to import from a text file and can't work out why; I get the same error using TransferText in code.

However, if I open the file, parse the data and put the data onto the table one record at a time (in code), it works fine (but slowly!)

The import file is a straightforward tab-delimited text file.

Can anybody help please?

General :: Database Becoming Read Only At Random?

Jun 24, 2014

I'm sure it's not random, but it doesn't seem to follow any sort of rules. My database has become "Read Only" 3 times now causing all workers using the database to stop work until IT can fix the issue. All IT does is kick everyone out of the folder that my db is in and suddenly it is no longer read only.

General :: Need To Add Data To Read Only Database

May 7, 2015

I have read only access to a database maintained by a vendor. I am using an append query to search for new records in that database every time my database opens through a macro. This adds any new records to my table. I then add additional information to each record in my table. This is newly acquired information, not calculated, and it is different for each record.

My question is can I keep my table up to date with the vendor table without running the append query macro at open every time as my database may remain open for extended periods of time during updating of records.

General :: How To Get Size Of Each Object In Database

Aug 11, 2015

I have adopted someone elses database. It is a front end with about 100 linked tables/forms/reports/modules. The problem is that the database is really large. I would think by looking at the objects that it should be around 5mb tops, however after compacting it is still 63mb.

Is there a way (vba or otherwise) to look at each object and get its size in KB?

Once I can figure out which object is taking up too much space I can work on making them smaller.

We have a database on a PC located on our network. The database is located in this computer's shared folder. Another database grabs data from this database occasionally.

General :: Exporting Queries - Database Is Read Only Error Message?

Apr 16, 2013

I routinely export queries etc from my development database to the 'live' master database used by users. Every so often I get the error message 'The database Mydatabase.accdb is read only'. Then I can't export anything to it. I don't know why it should suddenly become read only. How do I make the database changeable, and not read only?

General :: Split Database With Multiple Users - Read Only Kiosk Mode

Dec 17, 2012

I have two separate database files, a front end with all my forms and a back end with all my tables. The backend is stored on a network drive, is there any way of being able to store the frontend on the drive with the backend? Users do not use the actual computer to store information or access files, everything is usually saved on the network drive. I have created a shortcut that launches the front end database in the read only kiosk mode.

General :: No Permission To Open Database Object Error

Jan 20, 2015

I have a 2003 .mdb file and the associated Workgroup Information File which normally resides on a network in a folder V:V-Base-DatabaseDATA. I have the Workgroup Information File.

The database is unsupported and we need to migrate the data to a new web based database.

When I try to open the database with the shift key down I get the following message :

You do not have the necessary permission to use the V:V-Base-DatabaseDATAV-Basebe.mdb object.

What is the best way to access the data and do I need to do this on the server instead of a local drive off site?

Users_Database Or Object Read Only

Feb 27, 2007

I got the user and admin passwords working so that when you open the database it asks you to logon and I set permissions so that users can't delete data from tables only adminstrators can.

I emailed it back to work and still had the original on my workstation saved in a different location when I unzipped new and supposedly improved version into a new folder location now when you open up and add in a new user both versions comes up with the following read only error see picture.

Even on the original database that I didn’t modify or save back to!! Any ideas?

I’ve tried going into the tools/options/advanced setting it to shared or exclusive and no locks, also the properties in explorer comes up with read only and you change and apply and then you go back into properties and read only is back on! :mad:

Forms :: Exclude Object From Read Only?

Dec 16, 2013

possible to exclude certain boxes when a form is set to read only?My database essentially has 4 user levels (Developer, Admin, User and Guest), and whenever a Guest opens up a form, the form opens as Read Only and a message box displays telling you this. However on most of these forms, there are search boxes which allows you go straight to a specific record, but they don't modify any data, but because the form is read only, I can't type in these comboboxes. So is there anyway to exclude these boxes from being read only?

Modules & VBA :: Object Read Only And Type Mismatch Error For Serial Number

Jun 15, 2015

I'm having an issue with the database being read only and a type mismatch due to OpenRecordset. I know this database use to work when it when it was just

CurrentSerNum = RecSet(0) +1 was doing the incrementing.

I need the database to increment in a different way now.

Q=manufacture location
1st number is new=0 or used=1
2nd and third number =82
4th is single digit year aka 2015 = 5
6 and 7th are work week aka 25 for this week
8,9,10 are incremental numbers for the units made that workweek, so 001,002,003.
Then week 26 starts the increment starts back at 001.

Code:
Private Sub MakeThoseProducts_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_MakeThoseProducts_Click
Dim NumericSerial As Double
Dim WorkWeek As String
Dim WorkYear As String
Dim WorkWeekNumber As Integer
Dim WorkYearNumber As Integer
Dim Location As String

[Code] ....

Read Only Database

Jul 12, 2006

Hi, I am trying to create a database from scratch, however I need multiple users to have access to it. I do this nearly everyday and have no issues on the LAN we use.

This week I have been struggling to create a database on a different LAN. I create the database however I get the message that it is read only when I close it and enter it again. This means that other people are also unable to open it at the same time, and when they managae, they only get read only access.

Could this be a strange unfamilar-to-me LAN set up? Or is there something fundamental that I am not doing when creating this database?

Thanks for any help

Read-only Database?

Jul 17, 2007

hello,

You helped me solve my linking issue with my front-end/back-end database, but I've got another question. Whenever I open up the front-end ( the shortcut to it anyway), I can't open it in edit mode- only edit. Even if I do a fileopen and select the type of open I want, it doesn't work. How do I open it in edit mode so I can link the table?

thanks again

Backup Database Is 'read Only'

Feb 13, 2006

Hi All,

I created a database in Access and of course password protected the backend version. As a matter of course I backed up the mdb to cd in case of emergency.

Our network has been taken down due to some virus being bought in by a laptop user so I wanted to reinstall the mdb from the cd to my c: drive.

The problem is that the file is saying that it is 'Read Only' which I think is down to the password protection i put on there.

Question:
Is there a way I can get round the security?

I promise I am not a hacker!

Cheers

Smudger
