Seemingly Random 'object Invalid Or No Longer Set'

Jul 21, 2006

Hi all,
I have an Access 2002 (SP3) frontend and SQL 2000 (SP3a) backend.
2 sites, 2 SQL servers ( identical hardware and software).
Replication using Push Merge every 5 minutes.

10 users at 1 site and 15 at the other with Access 2002 frontend stored locally on each users PC.

I get random 'object invalid or no longer set' messages just appearing on the workstation screen without the operator doing anything. about 3 or 4 a week, but not on the same workstation at 1 of the sites only, but only during the working hours of the other site. We have out of hours users who never experience this issue.

Occasionally the error is preceeded by a SQL ODBC connectivity error but this rare.

I had been informed it was network issue but I have been running continuous
ping from a suspect workstation to the sql server and back.
When the error occurs there are NO dropouts in the pings.

It doesn't follow volume of data changes either as one site can make hundreds of changes and we don't get the error and then it can be after 10 changes the error occurs.

I have been researching this now for about 2 weeks to no avail, if anyone can point me in the direction of good resources you will make my year. :D

ERROR [HY000] Object Invalid Or No Longer Set.

Sep 27, 2005

I have an application that inserts records to a database, and it works perfectly on mysql

when i try to insert the records on access after inserting 340 records i get this error message that says

ERROR [HY000][Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Object invalid or no longer set.

Is there any reason why i'm getting this message?

I'm connecting fine to the database because i'm inserting records, but it suddenly stops and i don't know why

Object Type Argument Blank Or Invalid

Apr 26, 2005

I have a macro run from an autokey (F12) that uses SendTo to send the current report that's on screen to an email as an attachment. This has been working perfectly for years and all of a sudden when I hit the F12 key I get:
The Object Type argument for the action or method is blank or invalid.
It's fine to just right click the report and use Send To but this is a pain for my users who just want to hit F12 as before.

Anybody help?

Thanks

Pathetic... I Cannot Figure Out A Seemingly Simply Query

Jan 17, 2007

Alright people... I'm ashamed to even ask but here goes.

I have two tables:
1) Employees
2) Neighborhoods

Table Employees has a comprehensive list of all employees and their information (including phone numbers).

Table Neighborhoods has lots of information about each neighborhood we're working in and it also specifies what people play certain roles in each neighborhood. For instance, there is a field for "Field Manager" and "Sales Consultant". These two fields are exact matches of "Full Name" from Table Employees.

All I want is for my Neighborhoods Table to be updated or a new table be created that imports the "Field Manger Phone Number" into the Neighborhoods Table and the same for the "Sales Consultant".

-----------------------------

To be explain one other way, this is what I want:

Table: Employees
Field: Full Name
Field: Phone Number

Table Neighborhoods
Field: Field Manager (already equals Full Name)
Field: Sales Consultant (already equals Full Name)
Field: Field Manager Phone Number (This is the field I want pulled from Table Employees)
Field: Sales Consultant Phone Number (This is the field I want pulled from Table Employees)

-------------------------------

I've tried my best to create an Update Query or a Make Table query but I have not gotten any good results. Can someone please help me out with this being very descriptive as I am certain I'm just goofing one simple step.

Thanks in advance.

Difference Performance Levels For Diff Users With Seemingly The Same Set-up?!

Aug 18, 2005

Afternoon Folks,

I have a database that multiple users have access to.
We all have new pcs of exactly the same spec.
We all have the same oracle ODBC, which is linking to tables in an oracle database on a Sun F15k Server.
The linked tables are set-up using my oracle account with saved password.
We are using the same network.
We are all using Access 97.

Queries that are run in this database are returning results in just a couple of seconds for other users, and 20-30 seconds for me.

Can anyone suggest any factors that may be causing this discrepancy?
Or things that I can run/do to improve performance?

Cheers in advance, James

Modules & VBA :: Event Calls Seemingly Unrelated Procedure

Apr 11, 2014

I have two forms:

frmOpeartions
frmManagers

frmOperations allows the user to assign a manager to an operation by selecting the manager record from a combobox. Occasionally the user may need to setup a new Manager record if one hasn't been setup already. In this case there is a "New" "button" (it's actually a label with an on click event) that the user can click to open frmManagers and add the new manager record.

The code to open frmManagers is:

Private Sub lblNewManager_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmManagers", acNormal, , , acFormAdd, acDialog
Forms!frmManagers!cboMoveTo.Visible = False
Forms!frmManagers!lblManagers.Visible = True
End Sub

Once frmManagers is open the user creates the new Manager record and then closes the form using a similar label with an on click event:

Code:
Private Sub lblClose_Click()
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmManagers", acSaveNo
End Sub

frmMangers also has an OnClose event that will refresh any comboboxes on other forms that refer to tblManagers to make sure that new Manager records will be available immediately for the user to choose from:

Code:
Private Sub Form_Close()
If CurrentProject.AllForms("frmPlants").IsLoaded Then
Forms!frmPlants!cboPlantManager.Requery
Forms!frmPlants!cboQCManager.Requery

[Code] .....

So the problem comes when the user clicks the Close label (acting like a button) on the frmManagers. The code successfully closes the form and the on close event successfully refreshes any comboboxes on forms that may be open, but then for some reason it attempts to run again or perhaps continue running the onClick event that opens frmManagers. Since the form is already closed it gets hung up on trying to change the visible properties of the controls and the code fails.

Object Library Not Registered/ActiveX Component Can't Create Object

Jun 9, 2005

Hello

I am using Access 2003(11.6355.6360) SPI

When I attempt to create a new DB - by performing Blank Database I immediately get a message 'Object Library not registered'.

If I 'OK' that box and try to create a table, I can do so - create Table in design view.

When I then try to Import external data - an excel file I get the message 'ActiveX component Can't create object'.

I have looked ob various sites for help and forum information regarding these errors but have found nothing conclusive, with specidfic regard to Access 2003.

The version has been loaded on my machine about 1 year as part pf Office Professional but this is the first time I have attempted to run Access itself.

Does any forum member have any ideas as to how this problem could be resolved.

Thank You

Rgds

Forms :: Object Doesn't Contain Automation Object Table Name

Jan 5, 2015

I am currently building a database for the company I work for that is fairly similar to the Northwind Database; however it is made from scratch so hopefully some of the common problems with that database won't find their way into mine.My problem is that when I go to my Orders form, I pick a customer from the main form, which creates a record on the Orders table. When I then go to the subform to choose a product/line item, I get the error in my title ("The LinkMasterFields property setting has produced this error: 'The object doesn't contain the Automation object 'OrdersT.") as soon as a product is chosen from the drop down list.

Forms :: Subform - Object Doesn't Contain Automation Object

Jul 17, 2013

The error is:

The LinkMasterFields property setting has produced this error: 'The object doesn't contain the Automation object 'tblIndividual.' '

Then it also gives me the same one on another table.

I think it has something to do with the link master/child fields. I've tried all kinds of relationships with the three tables and can't figure it out.

I've tried uploading the database here but it won't. It's on my Sky Drive.

The Object Doesn't Contain Automation Object X

Dec 27, 2006

I'm getting an error message (informational only):

The object doesn't contain the automation object 'ClientID.'You tried to run a visual basic procedure to set a property or method for an object. However, the component doesn't make the property or method available for Automation operations.

Check the components documentation for information on the properties and methods it makes available for automation operations.
This happens when I start entering data in the field "productname" of a subform.

So I'm assuming something in the form or in the code of the form is referring to ClientID. but I've checked it, and there is nothing referring to it anymore. Well, at least as far as I'm aware of.

This afternoon access crashed without any error, it just closed. Upon reopening the DB again, all my work of the past one and a half week was gone. Normally I always backup the data, but these past days I didn't due to christmas and still working a lot too. So I forgot.

I did some redesigning in the process this evening, deleting and adding some fields and code.

I can't get rid of this error. Can anyone help? Or point me in the right direction?

Also the DB is 3.5MB in size. While it is completely empty. And I can't imagine that some empty tables, queries, forms and a bit of code can be so much. But that's for a later time to worry about I guess, unless one of you says: this and that, maybe that works... Otherwise, I would really be very glad already if the error disappears....

No Longer Secured?

Jan 14, 2006

I created a DB program for my last job that resided on a stand alone PC. It has the Access generated user level security (so there's a "secured.mdb" file) and can only be opened via the desktop icon. In the past, when I copeid the db to a flash drive, took it home to work on it, it always said I didn't have permissions to run it unless I placed it in the right spot on my computer where I've got it set up with a secured file and the desktop to open it.

Yesterday, I noticed that I can now open it anywhere, including my laptop, and it just opens. My concern is, I don't trust the business where the program is being used to not take it and call it their own (I trust the management team, however).

ANy ideas why it no longer looks for the user level security now?

I'm running XP Pro on both machines, Access 2002 on the desktop and 2003 on the laptop.

Thanks.

Functions No Longer Working

Sep 29, 2005

Not exactly sure if we has anything to do with sql server so sorry if it isnt strictly relevant.
I have a database on sql server and am using an access data project as the front end. Have finsihed this and is working fine till I try and use it on another computer on the network. It still connects to the database fine (well on most machines on the network not sure why not on the others) but the problem is access functions in my reports and forms seem to have stopped working and show up as ?#name
Examples of the kind of functions I am talking about are

=Format$([DateFrom],"Long Date")

=[SumOfMinutes]60 & Format([SumOfMinutes] Mod 60,":00")

any suggestions?

SendReport No Longer Works

Oct 24, 2005

I'm using Access 2000 along with Oulook 2003. Since we changed email servers, the send report no longer works. The addresses no longer appear to be valid. I can manually put all the names in every time an email is sent, but that is defeating the purpose!

I even tried changing the addresses to what an outsider would use rather than our internal name list; (milko@valspar.com instead of Mary Ilko) but this didn't work either.

Here's the code:
Private Sub cmdMailApproval_Click()
OnError GoTo Err_cmdMailApprovalClick

Dim stDocName As String

stDocName="rptForApprovalReport"
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acViewPreview,, "[Batch#]=forms![frmInbound]![Batch#]"

DoCmd.SendObject acSendReport, StDocName, acFormatSNP, "FirstName Lastname",,,"Pre SHip Approval", "Please see the attached."
DoCmd.SendObject


Thanks in advance for your help!

Date() And Now() No Longer Recognized

Apr 6, 2006

I have a replica database in Access 2000.

I changed a form in the design master that had nothing to do with the date or a date field. Everything appeared fine.

Now I updated the replicas, and an error is happening on all replicas as well as the design master. Any reference to Date() or Now() causes errors.

If it's a field on a form it has an #Name error. If Date() or Now() is on a report, a popup to enter parameters appear for the date. This database with these codes have been working for years.

Is it safe to say it's no longer recognizing Date() or Now() ?

Any ideas on a fix?

'Left' Function No Longer Working??

Jan 8, 2008

I developed a database in 2005 and used the 'Left' function in many of the queries to obtain the the correct text for output to reports. The database worked extremely well for a year and a half.

I have not accessed it for the past year. Recently I opened the database for use with a new project and I keep receiving the error message:

! Undefined function 'Left' in expression.

I haven't changed any of the expressions and do not understand why this funtion no longer works.

Any ideas?

Access Reformats My SQL - And Then It No Longer Works!

Apr 5, 2006

Situation: I have written a fairly straight forward nested query which aggregates sales & activity data (num_calls, date, etc.) by customer specialty (CODE_ESP_ACC1) in a single query. The SQL I have written to achieve this is as follows:


SELECT Q002.GP, Sum(Q002.Num_Calls) AS Total_Calls
FROM (SELECT Q001.CODE_ESP_ACC1, Count(Q001.ACT_ID) AS [Num_Calls], Iif([Q001].[code_esp_acc1]="MG" or [q001].[code_esp_acc1]="MF",1,0) AS GP
FROM (SELECT [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].ACT_ID, [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].TER, [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].ACC_ID, [11 Physicians with main specialty].CODE_ESP_ACC1, [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].DATE
FROM [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM] LEFT JOIN [11 Physicians with main specialty] ON [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].ACC_ID = [11 Physicians with main specialty].ID_ACC
WHERE ((([06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].POSITION)=1))) AS Q001
GROUP BY q001.code_esp_acc1, Iif([q001].[code_esp_acc1]="MG" Or [code_esp_acc1]="MF",1,0)
HAVING (((Q001.code_esp_acc1) Is Not Null))) AS Q002
GROUP BY Q002.GP;

This works absolutely fine. I can save this query and run it many times without problems. However, if I then re-enter SQL edit view, Access reformats it as follows:


SELECT Q002.GP, Sum(Q002.Num_Calls) AS Total_Calls
FROM [SELECT Q001.CODE_ESP_ACC1, Count(Q001.ACT_ID) AS [Num_Calls], Iif([Q001].[code_esp_acc1]="MG" or [q001].[code_esp_acc1]="MF",1,0) AS GP
FROM (SELECT [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].ACT_ID, [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].TER, [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].ACC_ID, [11 Physicians with main specialty].CODE_ESP_ACC1, [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].DATE
FROM [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM] LEFT JOIN [11 Physicians with main specialty] ON [06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].ACC_ID = [11 Physicians with main specialty].ID_ACC
WHERE ((([06 Act 2005 Hosp - IM].POSITION)=1))) AS Q001
GROUP BY q001.code_esp_acc1, Iif([q001].[code_esp_acc1]="MG" Or [code_esp_acc1]="MF",1,0)
HAVING (((Q001.code_esp_acc1) Is Not Null))]. AS Q002
GROUP BY Q002.GP;

... and this no longer works (syntax error in FROM statement).

To save you sifting through the SQL, the error is caused by Access replacing the soft brackets () aroung the outermost FROM statement with an object identifier-style hard bracket []. - specifically, the outermost SELECT statement now reads
SELECT Q002.GP, Sum(Q002.Num_Calls) AS Total_Calls
FROM [
instead of

SELECT Q002.GP, Sum(Q002.Num_Calls) AS Total_Calls
FROM (
and the alias for the subquery reads
]. AS Q002
instead of
) AS Q002

Changing the Access alterations back to my original fixes this problem - so the problem is more an annoyance than a disaster. However, I have no idea why Access is doing this to my query, nor how to prevent it from doing so. Does anybody have any experience of this behaviour in Access and any ideas of how to fix it?

Help! Replies appreciated.

Some Forms, Tables, Etc. No Longer Visible

Mar 1, 2006

Several years ago, my colleague and I built some databases (using Access 97, if it matters). We are both responsible for the maintenance of them.

Recently, the hard drive in my PC crashed, and the IT group replaced it. Now, when I open one of the databases, I cannot see all of the Forms, Tables, etc. Thinking the database had been corrupted, I asked my colleague to open it on his machine. Everything was there, and can be viewed from his PC.

All was well until my hard drive was replaced. Has anyone seen this before? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

MS Access Combining Fields Into A Longer One

Jul 27, 2014

i wish to combine multiple fields (there are no fixed number of fields, they vary depending on the data, so i guess union queries are out of the question) into one large field. For example:

TABLE 1:
PNumber
PName
C1
C2
C3

1
AAA
0.1
0.2
0.3

2
BBB
0.4
0.5
0.6

So i wish to combine the fields C1, C2 and C3 into a larger fields containing all the data. So considering the example above, it should look like this:

TABLE 2:
PNumber
PName
C1+C2+C3

1
AAA
0.1

1
AAA
0.2

1
AAA
0.3

2
BBB
0.4

2
BBB
0.5

2
BBB
0.6

I plan on entering data into TABLE 1 using a form and running a query, or some code etc so that it looks like TABLE 2.

Data No Longer Visible In Tables

Apr 30, 2013

I am using an application that uses an Access database, and I believe the original database was created in the 97 version. The application queries the database and allows a person to view the data in the database to select a particular instrument to test. When the MS Office was upgraded by our IT we are no longer able to view the data in application. The fields, rows, and columns appear, but the numbers and letters are not visible. The data is really there, but can't be seen.

I have attached a screenshot of the view that shows the white columns and rows.
