I have inherited a 2003 db with unknown PIDs for the Group & User security.When trying to alter User details, I'm asked for a PID, so I'm trying to find the PID for the existing users.
I've gone to unhide the systems tables to get a dump of the data & hopefully find the PIDs but no luck so far.There is a Parent ID & if I run a query from the Users DB file, it appears as if it something like japanese writing ???
Access 2010 Where exactly do I find Import Specifications that I have created? How do you View System tables?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have our primary web based inventory system that I am exporting to Excel and using this as an import to Access for the main raw data for my database. This being inventory it changes daily so I am updating this table every day. When I try to append the table it ads all the records. I am wanting an easy way to add only the new records/take out the ones that are no longer there. Basically update the table with what is currently there.The only have I have found to do this is by running non-matching queries and update queries.

I am a newbie and I am having a problem with MS Access 2000 security.
I have created a workgroup information file for a database to secure a database using a user level security. Everything seems to work ok if I use this WIF. But if I join the system.mdw file the database is not secure and opens without prompting for login. Please let me know if there is a method to block the user from using the system.mdw file.
Hi
I've done every search I could think of, but haven't come up with a solution.
I'm having a problem with file system security settings of windows 2000.
I have a FE/BE database setup, the BE is stored on a network drive that all users have access to. The FE is stored in the same spot on every workstation (C:dataXXXXXX.mdb). The FEs demonstrate considerable bloat and I understand that the solution is frequent Compact and Repairs.
However, each physical workstation is used by more than one user (different shifts) and the compact process removes the Everyone file system access from the database and replaces it with Administrators, and the current user; thereby preventing anyone other than the compacting individual from accessing the FE on that computer.
Is there a solution??
thanks

I am relatively new to Access and VB. I am trying to create a log-in system that assigns a security clearance to each user and then restricts access to certain forms and reports based on security clearance. Right now, I have set up the log-in system - that seems to work fine. But when I try to lock the form based on security clearance, I get the 2450 - Form Not Found - error.
The code I am using on the form is as follows:
Private Sub Form_Open (Cancel As Integer)
If Forms!frmLogin!cboUser.Column(4) <> 1 Then
MsgBox "You do not have access to this form", vbOkOnly
DoCmd.Close acForm, "formname"
EndIf
End Sub
"Att Mr/Mrs Vezi Your DEFAULTED account has been handed over to XXX. Payment DUE IMMEDIATELY Ref 1315519509. Tel 0009377500"
I need to extract the word "Ref " plus the number that follows it from the above string. The problem is that the word "Ref " is not always in the same place and the number following it is not always the same length. (ie it could look like "Ref 123456 " or "Ref 1234567 ") The only commonality between the records is that the number will always follow the word "Ref ".
I have tried to find this on the forum but it seems all the answers are to do with manipulating the strings based on what the postcode is whereas I just want to extract the postcode as a separate string as simply as possible.
Basically, I have a text field called Add5 which has the last line of the address including the postcode.
Example: "Northampton NN1 7PQ"
I am trying to end up with two strings like this
Add5 = "Northampton"
Postcode = "NN1 7PQ"
I only need to do this in one place, I don't think it needs a module.
for example how can I extract the following number from the field ITEM 117145 5410076462162, 714774 117072 5410076462223 ,714768 117153 5410076462285,733289 998214 5410076462193 from this record. The field is memo. The common: the string "+" always is in front I tried this Expr2: InStr([ITEM],"+"), but it only give me first one.
The following is record

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a table with about 29,000 postcode values

I have imported several Excel files into Access to create tables in the database.
I teach online and basically I need to know how to extract certain bits of data from each table and put them together.
For example:
Table #1 is my student roster list and contains the fields: Firstname, LastName, SchoolName, and several other fields.
Table #2 is a list of schools throughout the state with fields such as: SchoolName, Registrar, ContactPerson, and so on.
There are several other tables involved but I’m trying to make this question as simple as possible and if I can get this question answered, I think I may be able to figure out the rest.
I would like to print a report out for each individual student that will include the school name from Table #1 and match it with the same school name in Table #2 and then extract the pertinent school information from Table #2 for that school.
I have more than one table with a list of schools. Should I name each field that pertains to the school name with a unique name?
To clarify….
Table#1 can have the same school name listed any number of times because some of the students attend the same school.
Table #2… Each unique school name will be listed only once.
These Excel files come to me regularly as they are updated and I am trying to find an easy way to extract the data that I need.
Can someone please tell me how to write this query?
Thanks so much for your help!
I currently have 8 tables in my Database.
How can i extract all the information in those tables and put all the data into one large table? I want to extract everything apart from one table?
and can I format the large table once the data have been put in i.e. insert new Columns at the start, and populate fields based on the value of other fields values?
Any ideas or help? thanks

I'm designing a database for a laboratory. There are many tables that will contain test results. They all have in common a field called ID( primary key) linked by a one to one relationship because one patient has reports in different tables. The ID is unique to each patient. For the Reports, i hit the rocks... How can i structure a report that can extract a patient's records from the different tables where they appear in the database?
View 8 Replies View RelatedHello,
My application I develop should retrieve some meta data from Access system tables. It should find:
- What tables are stored in database.
- What columns have each table in database.
- What relationships are between tables in database.
I opened systems tables of some .mdb file and took interest in such kind of information. But I got some problems by looking for what exactly I need. Please, could someone help me at these points:
1) I found that in system table MSysObjects I can find names and ids of tables created by user (for example by me). But how to determine that these tables are created by user and they are not let’s say a system tables?
2) I didn’t find any meta data about columns of tables! How to determine what columns has each table?
I created application which uses MS SQL Server to retrieve such a kind of meta information and there where no problems. But I stuck using Access.
I was looking for some information in Internet but ineffectively. Please, help me...

I have imported an Excel table with a column which has several values in one cell separated by "". In my case names of institutions afiliated with a patent. Example of the format of a single cell: MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY (US) RIVE TECHNOLOGY INC (US)

I currently have a front-end/back-end database, but at some point in time one of the tables has been modified and whenever the front end connects it comes up with a parameter request for a field that no longer exists. I have narrowed it down to MSysQueries, where there is a reference to this field. Is there anyway I can avoid this or change/repair the system table?
Compact and repair doesn't work unfortunatly.
