    Lock file behavior. Does not delete itself.

    I definitely closed the database. I even re-booted my pc. I donot have auto compact and repair. I do a compact and repair about once a week. Its really strange, because I VPN from home when I arrive at home, and the LDB had a different time. At that point, I just loaded the application and then...

    Lock file behavior. Does not delete itself.

    Confused about the lock file behavior. I noticed a lock file tonite when I was leaving the office. The users said they all closed out of the app. I looked at the lock file and my pc was the one in the file. I did not have the app open. When I got home, I checked the situation again, the lock...

    Need design advise on option group and storing the value

    My user would like to tag their account records as a type 1 Or type 2 Or type 3. I originally set this up as an Option Group (with checkboxes) and stored the value "1" or "2" or "3" into a text field in the table. However, the fields on the form are checkboxes and this is causing some havoc with...

    How do you export a large table into excel

    I have a user with a table of 210,000 rows. She exported it into EXCEL and received only 16,000 rows. I thought Excel would convert 64,000 at a time. Should she copy from Access and paste into Excel???? Does she have to do it in increments????

    Access 2007

    Does anyone know if the new version will address compacting and repair. For instance, if you delete a table will the database automatically handle that bloat issue. Any improvements on the corruption issues.... Thanks

    It works on some computers and some it does not? One of the sites we work with have a testing room with 17 computers and all of a sudden this error comes up on one of our apps, but it works fine on other computers in the room and throughout the building. Any ideas?

    Does IBM have a front end for DB2 for queries

    I have been using Access to query our mainframe DB2 tables. This works pretty well, but we would like to know if IBM-DB2 has some kind of front-end for developing queries.

    Anyone use InfoPath...

    So, essentially it is a waste. Microsoft should have put that energy into Access. My department uses PDF forms for a variety of cases, sometimes they come to me to do changes. Sometimes modifying a radio button in a pdf can be an experience, that's one reason I am looking at InfoPath. We might...
