General :: Getting Rid Of Password On Opening All Database
Jul 11, 2014
I was exploring using User-level permissions on databases so I, the admin, can have full permissions to edit/change etc. the database and certain users can only add/edit data. But I inadvertently have now set Access to ask me for a password for any db I open. Even if it's my own personal one. Can I set up Access to only ask for login info on certain db's, not all. I know that 2010 did away with User and group level permissions but was able to add it back through customizing the ribbon and adding this feature back to it.

I do not have a split db. I am prompted to enter my password when the db opens which is fine. However, when I close the db it prompts me to enter a password (not normal) and when I enter it it says invalid password. Also, when I try to change my password it says invalid password and when I try to compact and repair my db it say invalid password.

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.

I am having problems opening my databases. Access automatically opens them in 'Read Only' mode, and I cannot find a way to avoid this - so I can never add data to the original tables ....

Normally when I hold down the shift key when opening an Access database it opens in development mode. When I do this on a certain database it does not. It still opens in program mode. If I hit F11 it goes into a sort of development mode but I do not get the ribbon bar at the top etc.
Has something been set on this database to stop it opening in development mode? Can I switch it off?

Is there a way to open an Access Database from a batch file or VBS file wait for 20 seconds and then close the Access file. Preferably I would like the Access file to run in either invisible or minimized mode. I would like the Access Database to close again after the 20 seconds has elapsed.
(The reason for this is so that the Database can refresh itself from Sharepoint on another users machine so that the excel reports on his machine are up to date).

I have a split database with multiple users. Since I split the database, it runs slower than the unsplit version. I understand this happens. I would like to have a message pop up when the database is loading. It takes approx 2 mins to load. Users get impatient and start clicking. So, I wanted to have a message pop up to let them know it is opening.
I have the same problem with forms loading, I have 5 forms and each takes about 4 secs to load, so thought about a loading message there too.

In my database there are fields of type Date/Time, their default value is set to now(). But the problem is that those fields are automatically filled up by English system date. I want my own country's date format, without changing my system date format. So I decided, whenever database is opened it should ask for a date, so the user will give today's date and that date will be used automatically on those fields.

I have created a Db in MS Access 2010 and under Options > Current Database I have done the following:
- Used drop down to select a form I want to display on opening
- Unchecked display navigation pane
- Unchecked allow full menus
This works how I want it to, perfectly. I then send it to a client who also has MS Access 2010 and when they open the file the form I have told it to open doesn't open, the navigation bar is displayed (with the form I want to open highlighted) and the full menus show but are locked.
What's going on? Is it some security setting the client has that isn't letting the opening procedure execute properly?

Hi,
Firstly thank you for your help, this should be a simple one I hope, but is cracking my head on the wall. Have searched and searched and can't find an answer.
I have an Access Db that is not password protected, but is asking for a password.
It opens on any other machine fine?
I think my version of Access is playing funny buggers with me, any suggestions?
I was trying to implement some security on this Db, which is why it happened I'm sure. I ran the security wizard, set-up two users and admin with passwords, I have the output file to "recreate" something too.
Issue is, I then copied this Db to another computer for use on there, it worked without a Password, so didn't need to worry about it, now I can't open any Db on my machine??
Your help on this obvious pointer would be great!

Question.
Our db is protected, in other words, when an user opens the db, no possibility to open any menu is availiable. However, if the user is smart (some are :D) then opening the db with the [SHIFT]-key held down the db opens and those users can edit the tables etc.
It would be just enough for our situation to have the possibility to set a password to the [SHIFT]-key when opening the db.
Is it possible? and if it is, please explain to me how
Thanks in advance.

Hi All,
I have three excel files (ActualHires.xls, ActualPromotions.xls and
ActualSeparation.xls). These are password protected files (with the
same password). They are linked to an access database and whenever the
files are opened, one must supply the password and click the 'Enable
automatic refresh button.' What I was wondering was if this could be
done in access with a command button. I have pasted some code below
that I found but now I'm getting an error.
This is the code:
Dim BookNames As Variant
Dim B As Long
BookNames = Array("O:ExcelFilesActualHires.xls",
"O:ExcelFilesActualPromotions.xls",
"O:ExcelFilesActualSeparations.xls")
For B = LBound(BookNames) To UBound(BookNames)
WorkBooks.Open FileName:=BookNames(B), _
UpdateLinks:=3, Password:="*******"
WorkBooks(B).Close SaveChanges:=False
Next B
But when I click the button, I get this error:
Run-time error '9' Subscript out of range.
and this line is highlighted:
WorkBooks(B).Close SaveChanges:=False
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Is there a way to open a form from a form in a different database? I'm pretty sure it needs to be done in VBA and have seen some code floating around that suggests it can be done, but I'm thinking there's more to it, like maybe one or both of the DB's need to be in a different format?

I have access 2010, I currently have a database in place and operational. What I am wondering is there a way to have a form come up whenever someone opens access and asks for a password and login name. Also I would like to have a 2 tier system. One for Admins and the other for users with limited access.
Is this even possible to accomplish?

Hi, I have the SQL query below where I am JOINing two tables for two different databases. Both databases are password protected.
Query from MS Access
SELECT T2.cl_ser_id AS Expr1, T2.cl_idno AS Expr2, T2.cl_name AS Expr3, T2.cl_surname AS Expr4, TL.SiteRef, TL.Date, TL.Time, FROM [db2.mdb].tablenames AS T2, [db1.mdb].TransactionLog AS TL
My problem is accessing the second database from the first one.
db2.mdb is password protected !
If I remove the password from the second database.. the query works perfectly. Although due to security reasons, both databases must be password prtected.
Thank you for your help.. as always :D

This is technically not about Access I suppose, it's about an application called Simply Accounting, which uses the Jet Database engine. Please bear with me, because the expertise for Simply seems to be mainly about Accounting and not the the tech side.
If your not familiar with Simply Accounting ( SA from now on in this post ), it keeps its data in an .SDB file, which I gather is a renamed .mdb and it's security information in an .SDW file. An .LDB file pops up when users open the database, and disappears when the database closes. Sound familiar?
I'm trying to gather some information on how this security system works, as I have only an acquaintance with databases.
Basically my problem is that I have a SA database with 2 users, both of whom can log in to the DB independently but not concurrently. The database resides on one of the users computers, and the other accesses it from the network.
Environment:
2XP Pro WS, MSOffice, MSWorks, Simply Accounting, Avast, AluriaAntispyware.Peer to Peer LAN.
Identical User Accounts and Passwords on both PC's, ie User1 has the same UID and PW on both computers as does User2.
The problem:
User1 on PC1 can open database in single user or muli-user mode. If User2 on PC2 attempts to login and open database while User1 is has it open, User2 get a bad username/password error.
However if User1 on PC1 logs off, User2 on PC2 can open the database (which resides on PC1 ) successfully.
This worked well on their previous LAN on their old gnarly slow spyware infested computers, however on the new computers it does not work. Inf act if I move a copy of the DB over the old computer, multiuser use works perfectly.
I'm thinking it has to do with the way tyhe password files work...something to do with SIDs maybe...like maybe if users are connecting concurrently, the fact they are presenting SIDS from 2 different machines is screwing things up?
Perhaps the database is comparing SID from WS1 with SID from WS2 when User2 on WS2 tries to connect, and seeing they are different thinks it's a different person?
Anyway, if you know something about this, please please let me know
Thanks
Len

I am having a problem with a database. On one particular computer, a user tries to save data into a current database. The database prompts the user for a password. No password is set on the database. From what I have gathered from searching the internet, it appears that the database would be corrupt, but not so fast. About 20 other people use the same database and have no problems entering data into it without getting a password prompt. Even the same user that is having problems can enter data into the database from another PC, it is only this one PC that it is prompting the user for a password. Has anyone else experienced this problem and what can I do to fix this issue without re-imaging the PC? Thanks.
