I'm trying to get one database to be shared by multiple users so that the file on the server is always updated as others add new records....in real time. Is there a way for this to work? What settings will I need?
View RepliesI have a form which has a field named VendorID it gets data from the following query
SELECT TOP 2 V.VendorID, V.VendorName, COUNT(A.ClaimNumber) AS Total_assignment, V.VendorStatus
FROM dbo.VendorMaster V LEFT OUTER JOIN
dbo.VendorAssignment A ON V.VendorID = A.VendorID
GROUP BY V.VendorID, V.VendorName, V.VendorStatus
HAVING (V.VendorStatus = N'Active')
ORDER BY COUNT(A.ClaimNumber)
So, if we look at the code it should give me top 2 by ascending , but whats happening here is once i refresh it gives me top 2 and it stays the same until and unless i go to view mode and come back to the form mode( refresh) again. automatic code or something which can make this one update automatically?
I have an access file which connects to an ODBC database, and I want it to update at a set time interval.
I searched through the internet, and noticed that most solutions require a form and putting the requery macro in the form's events.
My file doesn't need a form, its only function is to act as a medium to store the data from ODBC and lets a BI Tool play around with it.
My question is, how do I make the access file update automatically at a timely interval (every 30 mins, 1 hr etc.). Is it necessary to create a form?
how to manually link or import a csv file into Access..But is there any option to automatically update it whenever the source changes?

I have a number of charts that correspond to form fields. Once the fields are filled out and the form is saved I want the data automatically to update in the chart. I tried inserting a button to allow the user to manually do it, but it says that it is unavailable. The charts update when i click refresh, however I dont want the user to have to do this.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe have shared MDE, when second user opens gets message: [B]You do not have exclusive access to the database at this time. If you proceed to make changes, you may not be able to save them later.
The message seems to repeat for each compiled object (Form, Report and Module).
Helptext states occurs when in design mode - but not in design mode!
Any ideas as to how we can suppress the warning?
I have a problem related to shared access to a MDB file:
- I designed an Acccess Database and need shared access to everybody for read forms , and also I need (just for me) to do some "real time" modifications in the tables. I work in a huge company and cannot make changes in the Access of each user, just can work on my laptop. The file is placed in a shared folder.
- I can assign policies to the folders (for example I made a read only folder, with admin rights for me, but when somebody opened the mdb, I got an 'open only advice, and couldn't update any table; It's curious because the users coudn't generate the LDB file but still the access denied me the chance to modify any table when the file is opened by anybody).
- I tried playing with tools-security, but I cannot change every user settings, it didn't helped me.
I've been looking for related links to this problem but still I couldn't solve it. And at this point I wonder if it's just possible to do that?
Thank you very much
Hi folks,
I've a BE/FE database where the BE is on the server and the FE on different PCs. I have got linked tables in my FE and the connection between them and the BE is correct; however, users cannot view data entered by others. They can only view data entered by themselves!!
I'm not sure if the records are getting locked that's why they can't see others inputs.
Any help will be very much appreciated,

Hi all...
I have an ACCESS 2003 application with front end in the local machine and backend on the shared network drive. I mapped this drive to E: in my computer and all my linked tables show the E:folernameDatabasename.mdb as the source.
When I install this application in an other computer where they have mapped the same drive to F: , I am getting error that says "E:foldernameDatabasename.mdb" not found. How can use absolute network drive(like \cscrd eamfoldernamedatabasename.mdb) name to link the tables?
Thanks in advance.
I am very new to VBA. I found some code that will allow me to add an appointment to my personal calendar with using access VBA and it works great. It also allows me to add an appointment to another calendar created under "My Calendars" folder.
I wanted to know how to change the code in order to add the appointment to the SHARED calendar instead.
The main folder is called "Shared Calendars" which is at the same level as the default "My Calendars" folder. Under the "Shared Calendars" folder the calendar is called "Tester".
Here is the code im using at the moment: I believe I have have to change the line of code that is in red but I don't know how.
Private Sub cmdAddAppt_Click()
On Error GoTo cmdAddAppt_Err
Dim outobj As Outlook.Application
Dim outappt As Outlook.AppointmentItem
Dim olNS As Outlook.NameSpace

I have an Access DB that 3 different Analysts use on a daily basis. I need to be able to have more than one person in the DB and be able to design Reports, Querry's, and Tables. If I try to open the DB, and someone else already has it open, I am unable to modify the design of anything. Anyone know a way around this?

View 5 Replies View RelatedHello All,
I have a bit of a problem. I have a main form with two subforms. The subforms are linked to the main form my two fields. The main form and subforms are each based upon a different query.
I have written VBA code that filters the SQL statements of the subforms based upon the value of the the REV field on the main form. When the user changes to different record on the main form, the subforms are supposed to change accordingly.
The problem is that the subforms on the main form will not refresh each time the user chooses a new record on the main form. If I change to a new record on the main form and then open the subform outside of the main form, the correct information is shown. The problem however is that the subform shown on the main form does not automatically refresh. I have tried numerous strategies, but to no avail. If I am on a record in the main form, and I exit the main form, and then re-open the main form, the subform data on the main form will reflect that of the record I was on prior to previously exiting the main form.
Here is some of the code that I have tried:
Me![qryRevText_ sf].Form.Requery
Me![qryAdminRevText_sf].Form.Requery
Me.Refresh
or
Me.[qryRevText subform].Form.Refresh
Me.[qryAdminRevText subform].Form.Refresh
or
DoCmd.Close acForm, "qryRevText subform"
DoCmd.Close acForm, "qryAdminRevText subform"
Please help me if you can. I would appreciate it greatly.
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
I have several dbf files that I imported into Access in order to establish relationships and export as spreadsheets. I have created a macro that does that. However, the dbf files are based on a query that changes monthly. I was wondering if there was any way to automatically update the tables from the dbf files once the queries are run without manually importing the tables again?
Thank you for any assistance.
Access 2010 doesn't seem to like the last line. It gives me an error saying the form name doesn't following access object naming rules.

I have MDB database linked to SQL SERVER through VPN connection.I created links to the sql server Links are dsnless..Everything works fine but when I lost VPN connection or sql connection has been broken I can't refresh links to the tables.I receive message 3146 sql connection failed..I must close database and start again...
I tried different methods like ado,dao, and vba docmd.transferdatabase,aclink... but no success, table cant be relinked.
Only way I can relink is to change ip adress in conn.string
E.g. 192.124.0.2 (1st ip- router server ip) and after connection failed i can use 192.124.0.32 (2nd ip - server local ip) and that's it if i lost connection for the 3rd time... i must restart application.
It seems that access database keep the previous connection..how to reset or drop database connection to the sql server and refresh links to the tables with vba code without closing access database...

Hi -
I have a client that would like to export an news email list from their Access database into an SQL database that we use to send newsletter emails.
Does anyone know of a simple way to;
a: Export a table of data from Access to a csv file automatically.
b: have an SQL database look for a updates to the csv and import all - or all new data into a table in SQL
Any tips would be grateful - I know the task here sounds over complicated but my client does not have the budget to redesign their Access database into SQL, I have CRON running on the same server as the Access database, this could be a handling method for the automation, but I'm not sure if again I am over complicating things here myself, and Access / SQL have the capabilities of doing these things independantly.
Many thanks for reading.
We are having a problem with mulitple users leaving an Access db open and then I am not able to make new reports, etc. without calling everyone to close their session.
Is there a way to automatically close a db if user has not used in certain amount of time?

I wish to automatically fill in a form in datasheet view with records from a table. Currently you need to select each record to fill the list. I think this can be done using VBA, I'm a begininner to programming but think I need the code to do something like this.
Lookup the table or query, DoCmd select the first record, DoCmd select next record, Loop to end of recordset??
Basically it is automatically entering/ filling in each row (record) in the datasheet for every record in that table or query.
Any idea's please.

View 7 Replies View RelatedHey all. I posted this over at Mr. Excel too on the Access forums, but I thought maybe someone from this site might know the answer to my question.
I know pivot tables and charts are more up Excel's ally, but my question has more to do with Access I think. I've made a pivot table form from a query and everything is working fine except one thing. I want the table to refresh automatically. I don't want the user to have to go in and refresh the data manually.
I'm thinking I could put something on the forms "On Open" event but I don't know the specific coding. If anyone has any idea on this, I'd greatly appreciate some feedback.
