Uploading Forms To Central Database
Jun 14, 2006
Hi there,
I have a problem and wander if anyone knows a solution?
I have a central database that runs on a stand alone machine (soon to run on a server with VPN connection), it has a form that enables us to report faults this works fine however i would like to be able to send the form out to our operators (all over the world) for them to fill in when needed. then what we would like is for them to send it back to usand then for us to upload it to the central database.
is this possible or is there any other option?
Thanx tom

Database: Access 2007
I have designed a touchscreen input system using Visual Basic.net and this writes to an Access Database. Each Touchscreen has its database locally so it can still work even if there are Network problems.
Now what I would like to do is have all these local databases write to a central database say every minute but only write new records to the central database. The Central Database can either be Access or SQL.
What is the best way to do this?

I have started working on an existing MS access application (Front-end & Back-end) built with VBA. The frontend linked to a back-end access database which contains only tables. Because of the nature of the work involving vehicles. Each user has their own copy of identical databases with their individual data stored in backend.
Right now we just copy each back-end database via ftp and store it as usr_backenddb_date.accdb Back end databases contain around 16 tables with most of them containing a autonumber field as a primary key. Further tables are connected with each other referencing the primary key as a foreign key .
I would like ideally create a function in vba that lets me select the database and merge all the data from that database to a identical central database. For the initial part, I am thinking of combining each individual table in each database and changing the autonumber field with SQL with possibly trying to cascade the change so the refrences remain intact.
Constant Access to one back end db via internet (or server) is not really possible as the users are able to connect to internet (network) only few times a day. There are over 100 backends (for each vehicle) with over 1000 records in each.

Hello,
I have searched and searched for this but I dont seem to find a solution that suits me.
This is the situation. I have a a database wich is used by multiple users through a front-end. The back-end resides on a server.
Is it possible to select an attachement (word, excel, picture, etc) with the front-end and automatically save it to a folder on the back-end?
This way all the attachements are in a central place and NOT in the database.
I know I can easely solve this problem by saving the attachtments to the database itselve but I dont think that attachements belong in a database.
i hope that you guys can help me.
Thanks in advance

I want to push a table from Access to a specific SQL Server database.
Is there an easy way to do this? I have an ODBC connection to the SQL Server Database and I can import tables from SS to Access... but is there a way to do the reverse?
Thanks much!

Hi there
im trying to build a database that stores a large number of photos and would like some suggestions on how i can upload multiple photos (20+) at one time without uploading each one individualy, preferably through a form.
To outline the problem, each member of the team has a camera that they take to jobs, when they return i want them to be able to open a new form, enter the job number (the primary key) onto the form and then somehow drag and drop the pictures from the camera onto the form to upload them.
Is this possible through Access? is this the best way of uploading multiple photos easily? and how do i build this?
Thanks in advance
MJ

I am currently working on a project for work on re-creating our database for our daily audits. We enter daily information on a form which feeds to the table and in return we run the queries to get the percentages and all that good information. I was asked to be able to load a picture of to a particular record. Can I do that from the form and that link to the table and to the queries that run?

I built a form that will allow each page header to take the info needed depending on who is using the data base. I seem to be having a problem having the Logo uploaded so that it can be used. Since I am new to Access, my only example would be like a web page. use the location of the picture in the code and it pulls it up for each page associated. I guess this would be 2 questions. How do I add to my form the upload of the graphics and how do I get the reports and forms to pull that picture into the header every time.

I have a large database of items we sell on Amazon, I am looking to automate the process of uploading the inventory.
I am uploading a tab delimeted text file using the following code,
With CreateObject("msxml2.xmlhttp")
.Open "POST", strURL, False
.setRequestHeader "Host:", "mws.amazonservices.co.uk"
.setRequestHeader "User-Agent:", "VBA"
.setRequestHeader "Content-MD5:", md5hdr2
.setRequestHeader "Content-Type:", "text"
.send c2a
Forms!Form1.Text3.value = .responseText
End With
I am confident I have the signature and the MD5 Header, but I cannot get the data into Amazon!
I keep getting a non-descript error "InputDataError".
When debugging my Play API, I was told that the "send" command was not uploading the file contents, it was uploading the filename! So c2a is a string variable that contains the tab delimited data. This works like a charm for Play, but no joy for Amazon.

I have an access database that has been written by someone else (I am a novice when comes to access!) and to which I have been asked to regularly upload data from excel.
There is a Macro written to load data from spreadsheets, and generally this works without problems. However there are a few spreadsheets which come up that result in a message box saying "Error in [name of spreadsheet] xls file in row 0" - I have checked for errors and null values in the spreadsheet but have seen this before as it generally tells me the error is in row 245 for example, but have never seen this error in row 0 before!

I've split my database into a front end and back end which was relatively easy. I did this so that multiple users can have their own front end. But if I have to go in and change the back end and front end, does that mean I have to remake all the front ends? Right now I'm finding that if I delete my linked tables on the front end and then import them into the back end again and change everything on one screen and then split it again is the only option I know of.

I am having a problem in creating forms.The database table consists of 3 fields , one of the field's value must be a concatenation of the values entered in the other two fields.The user must choose the values of the the two fields using combo boxes, after he choose the values, the third field must be filled automatically.
For example:The fields id and mid are set to 12 and 20 respectively using combo box.The third field wid must take the value 1220 ans store it in the table.
Hope that i made it clear and wish that i can get the solution.Thank You

I have updated my copy of a database which included updates to a number of forms. I now want to import those changes into the proper database, so I used the Import function. I didnt get any errors when I imported everything, but the forms do not work as they did in my copy of the database.
One of the forms that dont work comprises of a number of drop down boxes, I have updated these so that the user has a filtered selection, to do this I put an SQL function in the Row Source property. This SQL function has been copied over correctly in the imported form, in fact when I go into the form in design view to check this fact then revert it back to normal view (after having not changed anything) it then works and all the other drop down boxes that didnt work on that form now work! How can viewing a form in design view and not changing anything make it now work?
So I could go into each form in the design view, check the Row Source property, then revert back to normal view and it would solve the problem of my forms not working, but, this database that I am importing the forms into is the back end of a split database and the first thing that the front end of the database does is import the changed objects into its database but the forms dont work.I have made changes in this way before and not had any problems before.

I'm trying to export a form to another database. I've tried both simply copy/paste and using the export function. In both cases the form is copied to the other database, but my buttons go missing. Is there a way to move the form to another database and keep it intact?
