MS Access Script to import data from external mde database to mdb database
Hi, Does anyone know of a way I can write a script that imports a table from a particular .mde file? I don't seen any obvious way to do it as a macro. Any suggestions if it can be done as a macro or as a written module? My ultimate goal is to have script that clears info out of 1 table in an .mdb file, imports an identically structured table from a .mde file, runs an append query I have in place to copy the data from the imported table to the table in my.mbd file, and then delete the imported table. Any help that could be provided would be greatly appreciated. Best wishes, George Hadley ghadley_00@yahoo.com With DBEngine(0)(0) .Execute "DELETE * FROM Suppliers WHERE SupplierID IN (SELECT SupplierID FROM Northwind.mde.Suppliers)" .Execute "INSERT INTO Suppliers SELECT * FROM Northwind.mde.Suppliers" End With Is this code I would run as a module? Yes or you could use the strings in two separate saved queries. ...

Create MS/ACCESS database app for non-ms/access users
Is it possible to create an MS/ACCESS database application and package it for users who do not have MS/ACCESS loaded in their PCs?

Do you know? If so, please answer this post. Thanks. I think it comes down to semantics. "Licensed" vs "Loaded". No you can't create an app that will run on a PC with nothing loaded. Yes you can create an app that will run on a PC where nobody's paid the fee to run MS Access. You still have to install something on that PC, however. What it is is a freebie version of MS Access that only runs applications - doesn't allow anybody to develop an app. You develop the app on your PC, which has MS Access installed. Then somebody installs the freebie ("Runtime Access") on somebody's PC and they can run the app you developed without having to pay any money to anybody. -- PeteCresswell Sue, If Access isn't present, some version of it must be installed to run an Access database.

I think you're going to have to expand a little bit more in your question here, as is not 100% quite clear what you're trying to do. You might want to make a little bit of a distinction between MS access, the development system that allows you to write code, build forms, and build reports, and that of the database engine that you choose to use with MS access. When you build an application MS access, you then choose your database engine, that might be oracle, SQL server, or perhaps more often leave the default jet database. So when you say make a client access application, are you talking about a piece of software that you plan to install and each computer? The fact that your introducing the issue of java further complicates your question. Perhaps your question is simply you have some java code running on a server, and with to open a mdb file (an access database file). In this situation you're not really using MS access at all here (you using what is called the jet database engine to read that mdb file). For all the trouble in this type of sce...

request for explanation on access an database in ms access
This is the code that I found on the internet for accessing an ms access database: import java.sql.*; class Test { public static void main(String[] args) { try { Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver"); // set this to a MS Access DB you have on your machine String filename = "d:/java/mdbTEST.mdb"; String database = "jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ="; database+= filename.trim() + ";DriverID=22;READONLY=true}"; // add on to the end // now we can get the connection from the DriverManager Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection( database ,"",""); } catch (Exception e) { System.out.println("Error: " + e); } } } What I don't understand is the declaration of database. What I did was putting the database in the same dir as the sourcecode and use "jdbc:odbc:CafeJolt.mdb". But this doesn't work. And the above code does, why is that??? Actually it's not Java question. It's ODBC question. You have to have ODBC connection. Depending of Windows it's usually something like this (for my Windows 2000): Start->Sttings->Control Panel->Administartive Tools->Data Sources(ODBC)-> User DSN -> [Add]-> Driver to Microsoft Access(*.mdb) === And here, finally you can choose file name. ...

I use the Microsoft Application Blocks to access the database.

Hi The technical support guys at my company have set up my system so that the server containing the MS Access database is on one server, while the pages that should access the database are on another server. When the pages and database are on the same server, I usually just connect through ODBC.

Wanted
I am wanting to be able to write reports against an ms-access database that is part of another package. I only want to report from the database. What I need is a package that will allow me to create the reports and then be able to distribute a run-time version. The client may not have Office so the package must run standalone. It could get to the Access database through an ODBC driver. Does anyone know what packages available? It looks like Crystal Reports has taken out their runtime version with their latest software but that was only a footnote in a book that I was reading. Please provide me with a list to start researching. Thanks, Joe There used to be other third-party report writers, but I don't know how many have survived over the years -- Crystal Reports appears to have been the most popular of these packages. (It is the only one that I have observed closely in use, and I saw some impressive work done with it on web applications against SQL Server.) Unless the magnitude of the distributable would be a problem, you can create your reports in Access, and distribute the Access application to run them with Access' runtime support. You'll get the Access runtime support in the Office Developer Edition for Access 97 - 2002, and in the Visual Studio.NET Tools for Office 2003 System for Access 2003. If you have difficulties with deployment using only the Packaging and Distribution Wizard, you can use a third-party installer such as Wise InstallMaster or Instal...

Best way to access a remote MS ACCESS database
What is the best way, via the internet, to access a remote Microsoft Access database? I was thinking of using VPN, but I thought that I would check here to see if there is a better way. Any suggestions? Thanks Do you mean remotely controlling an Access database, or linking tables over the internet? The first is doable, the second is a recipe for disaster. Remote Control: If your remote OS is Windows XP, you can use Remote Desktop (although only 1 person can access the PC at a time; this will change in the upcoming Service Pack for XP, but that may not help you now). Otherwise, GoToMyPC offers similar services, as does Terminal Server (a component of a Windows Server machine), PCAnywhere, et al. Linking to remote tables: You will almost certainly encounter severe problems with corruption, and your performance will almost certainly be so poor as to be unworkable. I attempted this once, with a web server in Canada and my machine in Augusta, GA. Even tiny data requests on a very well optimized data structure took waaaay too long to process ... it's simply not workable, IMO. Other alternatives would be covert the app to a web-based and place your data on a web server. Access/Jet isn't really designed for those workloads, but running a small site with minimal transactions and users can be done. Otherwsie, consider switching to a more robust data platform like MySQL, SQL Server, etc. -- Scott McDaniel CS Computer Software Visual Bas...

Accessing 2 tables having same name but different databases ms-access
Hi, I have an application with MS-Access as backend and JSP/ tomcat as frontend/webserver. For getting better response time(as access is very slow compared to other RDBMS's), I have split the main DB into two DB's on different disks on my server for better performance.I have kept the table names same but changed the DB names. How do I access tables from both the DB's? This is what I have done; I made different connection to the respective DB's i.e. con and con2. When I want to access data, I am using 2 result sets for retriving data from the tables, but getting no result. Here is my code: rs2_1=stmt2_1.executeQuery("select * from Requests where Status='Released' AND LoginName='"+login+"' order by Req_No"); rs=stmt.executeQuery("select * from Requests where Status='Released' AND LoginName='"+login+"' AND Req_No> 5500 order by Req_No"); So, rs & stmt are for latest records and rs2_1 & stmt2_1 correspond the records from older DB. I think, I'm forgetting some small thing but cant get it. Please advice. What do you mean "no result"? Does "next()" return false for both rs2_1 an= d rs? If you're really trying to improve response time, you should probably be ru= nning the two queries in separate threads ... but as you acknowledge, Acces= s may not have as high performance as other RDBMSs.
