This may sound a bit silly, but my Access 2003 refuses to start.
I recently re-installed Office 2003 after a fresh installation of WinXP. Word, Excel etc work as normal. This is the message that comes up when I attempt to start Access:
"Please wait while Office 2003 Prof. Ed. configures. Required data is being determined"
after that nothing happens.
Any ideas?
Please note that I'm using the German versions of OS and Office. My translation probably doesn't match the original message.
I just started working for a company the other week and they threw this query onto my lap with an unrealistic deadline. My programming experience is primarily in VB6, so I am not completely familiar with coding Access queries.
I was given code that was written for SQL, and the programmer that came up with it is unfamiliar with Access, so I am stuck trying to decipher this. If anyone could help me out, I would greatly appreciate it, as I am thoroughly confused and don't know where to begin. Here is the programmer's original code: while exists(select top 1 accNum from NoteFile where patindex('%' + char(10) + '%',dbtrref) > 0) begin --Insert note into table insert into #TL19Note(AcctNumber, Note) select accNum, (case when patindex('%' + char(10) + '%', dbtrref) <= 0 then dbtrref else left(dbtrref,patindex('%' + char(10) + '%',dbtrref)) end) from NoteFile
--Delete note from Note String update NoteFile set dbtrref = right(dbtrref,len(dbtrref)-len(left(dbtrref,patindex('%' + char(10) + '%',dbtrref)))) where len(dbtrref)-len(left(dbtrref,patindex('%' + char(10) +'%',dbtrref))) > 0
--Delete rows with no more notes delete from NoteFile where len(dbtrref)-len(left(dbtrref,patindex('%' + char(10) +'%',dbtrref))) <= 0 or patindex('%' +char(10) + '%',dbtrref) <= 0 end
--Eliminates any that are CRLR or just spaces delete from #TL19Note where len(Note) < 10
--Update the date update #TL19Note set NoteDate =left(Note,patindex('% %',Note)-1), Note = right(Note,len(Note)-patindex('% %',Note))
--No '@' means no time? update #TL19Note set NoteTime = '0000' where left(Note,1) <> '@'
--delete the '@' - we know which ones have it because NoteTime is null update #TL19Note set Note = right(Note,len(Note)-patindex('% %',Note)) where left(Note,1) = '@'
--Update NoteTime, take time out of note update #TL19Note set NoteTime = left(Note,2) + substring(note,4,2), Note = right(Note,len(Note)-patindex('% %',Note))
I recently bought a new computer and it was kinda cheap, so no office products were installed on the computer. A friend loaned me her copy of Office 2003 which didn't have Access on it. So, after installing Office 2003 I picked my old Office 97 CD and installed just Access 97. Then I go to open the database and get this annoying message.
Microsoft Access can't start because there is no license for it on this machine.
I know that I can startup MS-Access manually and bypass the startup options, including any macro that is set to run automatically, by holding the Shift key down when launching the application. I have:
Code: Public Sub AccessStuff() Dim myaccess As New Access.Application myaccess.OpenCurrentDatabase(" orfs006slsops_repts\_RS DevSOPSOP.MDB") Dim db = myaccess.CurrentDb() End Sub
which works nicely and opens the database just fine. However, this mdb has a startup macro defined in it. I can't hold down the Shift key since I'm doing this from a program. In this case, how can I bypass the startup macro?
Hi guys. I have some forms in my access database and i want load one of it automatically when i double click on my access.mdb . I be happy if some one teach me how i can do that.Thanks
Trying to use Access97 on Windows XP and I get an error message.
"Microsoft Access can't start because there is no license for it on this machine"
I've tried everything and it still doesn't want to work. I've uninstalled and reinstalled I've tried to find the font, hatten, and it's not there I've downloaded MDAC 2.8 I've check the permissions in HKEY CLASSES ROOT I've tried c:setup/y I've downloaded AcLicn97.exe and it tells me that it can't find Access
This is my first project using Access so take it easy on me. I'm trying to convert the Excel application to Access since I think Access is more flexible/powerful. I'm not sure if this requires programming (VBA-over my head) or just need some complex formulas to get the mission accomplished.
The objective is to be able to copy and paste data from a customized form directly to Access. These data will automatically be added into a summary sheet based on volume and amount.
Im looking at creating a database which includes some sort of diary system but I havent got a clue where to start, how to structure the tables, etc.
I am new to our company so I am looking to streamline some of their processes. Basically there are 4 people in our department and at the moment we use Excel as a mini diary system for our work on a day to day basis (our company uses Lotus Notes not Outlook and the diary system is a load of cr*p, plus also I want to integrate this into a database I have already written for our developers). Going down the page we have a section for each week which contains 4 rows (1 for each person). There is then 5 columns in each section which represents Monday to Friday. Our office administrator then goes in each month and updates the dates manually for the entire month.
Do I need to have a row in my database for every day of the year or is it done in weeks? I did a search for Access diary threads but there doesnt seem to be much info and the example one on iSam seems to have been taken off :(
I am new to Access and I could really use some help to point me in the right direction. I want to organize my tables properly from the start so I do not run into problems down the road. If anyone can give me some advice on topics to read it would be a big help. Here is what I am doing so far.
My database must record warranty claims. A customer could have multiple warranty claims with multiple parts that failed. Each part can be linked to multiple failures but in a claim one part and one failure must be selected.
Example: A motor can fail in many ways but I need to know how it failed for this customer.
I would like to be able cascade the combo boxes so when a part is selected the failures related to that part are updated.
TblClients ClientID AutoNum PK (1-many with tblMain) CustomerName text Address text (rest of the customer data fields)
TblParts PartID AutoNum Pk (1-Many with tblMain) Part text PartDescription text
TblFailure FailureID AutoNum Pk (1-many with tblmain) Failure text FailureDescription text
TblMain ClientID PartID FailureID
I guess my question is when I make a form based off TblMain, do I need a partfailure table to let me cascade my combo boxes?
I've downloaded and installed the new SQL server 2005 express edition CTD (June ed.) along with the Express Manager.
How do i get an access database into SQL server?
Now that it's installed, what next? When i try to upsize, it asks me to choose a server, and gives 3 options, and i'm not sure where they come from. Where does this list come from? are they previous installations of the MSDE on my computer? are they servers that ar available over our LAN?
i read that the default name if an instance of SQL server express is SQLEXPRESS but that's not on the list...
do i need to create a new instance of SQL server on my computer to house the database?
I really just want to try it, to see if it's something we should do, but i can't get it to do anything at all. i don't know where to start...
I've done some searches, but nothing tells me where to start. I'm getting really frustrated with this....
Good day all. A bit of back ground, I've built a data base (with much help from the folks here) to track the training of my people. Someone way higher then me has decided to completely revamp our field training. There are now two "tiers" based on rank and training level. My first thought is to make two seperate tables for the information in each tier. What I would like to do is make the training specific to each tier show up on the form that I use to track this training based upon the persons rank. Ie an Airman would only show the tier one tasks and a Master Sergeant would show the tier two tasks. I'm thinking this could be done with a quiery but have no idea how to go about it. Any input or suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance, Tim
I unticked all the boxes in the Tools > start up window. I closed my database then reopened it. Now, I can't put these settings back again as I can't see the Tools tab.
I have created one access application which will reside on server and many users will access it from there local PC. But whenever we start the application on local PC, it displays worning message that "Code is unsafe , it may harm your PC do you still want to run the code?" and another message box asking same question. CAn we supress this worning? CAn we design the application in such a way that it will not ask such aquestions and will open application immidiatly when we double click the file. Please reply ASAP. It's very much urgent...
I have a query that is generating two colums, one the states the Start Date and the other that States the End Date. I need to display another column that displays the time difference between the two. Any ideas how?
How would you make two prompt boxes which ask for the start and end date so you can select all the data between the two dates...
[Start Date?] And [End Date?]
E.g., 01/01/2006 And 07/01/2006 So I can select all the data between that week. I also need to use this for the remaining weeks in January and February. This is really simple...gah. Thanks guys.
Hi All:given a table with, let's say, Job Numbers that start with a letter (such as RES2345) or just plain numbers (such as 253180001 or 9817) how can I set the criteria in the query to just give me jobs that start with a number?I first trimmed the field to eliminate blank characters and then I used the Not Like "A - Z" but it still gives me jobs with letters at the beginning of the name.thanks for all your help in advance. :D
I have a button that runs a macro to delete records in 12 tables. I want to create a message box before that macro runs warning that you are deleting records in 12 tables and are your sure you want to run the macro.
I need a message box with an ok and cancel button. Where do I put the msgbox funtion in this code?
Thanks !!
This is my code:
Private Sub cmdRunDeleteMacro_Click() On Error GoTo Err_cmdRunDeleteMacro_Click
In my db I have a password log-in for each user. During the log-in process, I have a query set to run:
Code:SELECT tblSetOut.LogNum, tblSetOut.WoNum, tblSetCont.SetContName, tblSetOut.OrdAssign, tblSetOut.WoStat, tblSetOut.ThirdParty, tblSetOut.DateIn, tblSetOut.DateOut, tblSetOut.ThirdTimeIn, tblSetOut.ThirdTimeOut, (DateDiff("n",[ThirdTimeIn],[ThirdTimeOut]))/60 AS [Release if Greater than 24]FROM tblSetCont INNER JOIN tblSetOut ON tblSetCont.SetContInitials = tblSetOut.SetContInitialsWHERE (((tblSetOut.WoStat) Not Like "released" & "*") AND ((tblSetOut.ThirdParty)=True)); It opens up in read-only form that the user can print or exit out of.
What I need to happen is for the query to run based on the user's log-in name. There are three tables involved (tblSetOut, tblSetCont, and tblSecurity). The tbl SetOut and tblSetCont are joined at the field SetContInitials. The tblSecurity (field SC_NAME) is joined to tblSetCont at SetContName.
For the life of me, I cannot figure out how to capture the log-in name to filter the query.
I want to use a batch file to start the DB. This will check if the Front End is on the users machine and if not copy it over.
It will then check what version of Access they are running and use the appropriate shortcut to open the Database.
This all works fine except that the Batch File does not close down until the Database is closed. Is there anyway to close the Batch File automatically while the database is running?
The Batch file I am using is
@echo off rem ************************************* rem ** Batch file to copy FE ** rem *************************************
rem ** Copy Database **
if not exist "c:DB" md "c:DB" if not exist "c:DBFE.mdb" copy "NetworkPathFE.mdb" "c:DBFE.mdb" if exist "C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice10MSACCESS.EXE" goto Office10 if exist "C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice11MSACCESS.EXE" goto Office11 if exist "C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOfficeMSACCESS.EXE" goto Office

*Can anyone tell me if or how to reffer to the options from Tools-->Startup in VBA code? I`m asking that because i want to open a database in different ways taking in account the logged user. *And another question: in access 2000 is possible to make .mde files? Because the option is dissabled in tools--> database utilities menu.
I have a database table which is basically a calendar containing 4 columns (i) the date, (ii) special info about that date, (iii) morning volunteers and (iv) afternoon volunteers.When I go to this table the cursor is positioned at the very first date and i then have to scroll though record after record to get to the current date.How can I get it to remember the last date used?I am using Vista and Access 2003
I have a start date on a form. The fields data type is short date I need to create a validation rule so that when a user enters a date it can only be a saturday date which is entered.
I have been testing data entry forms in a new database. Is there an easy way to reset the whole thing, autonumbers and all to new, as if nothing had ever been in the tables?
