"File not found" error (Error 53) when opening Access database
I'm getting a "File not found" (Error 53) error when trying to open an Access database (.accdb file). The error appears during the database startup process and points to a VBA subroutine declaration line: The error message mentions "The file was not found where specified" which suggests VBA is looking for a file during project compilation, but I can't identify what file it's looking for. Has anyone encountered this issue where the same Access file works with some SQL Server backends but fails to even open with others?
ODBC call failed. ORA-01406
Trying to link to tables on our server which has never been an issue. ODBC connection is fine, using Driver Oracle in OraClient 11g_home 1. Selecting Data Source ODBC Database and selecting Link to the data source by creating a linked table. At this point it asks for a password which is typical, next it would normally bring up the list of tables in the Oracle database to link to. Instead I get the error which states "fetched column value was truncated", once I hit OK to clear the error the usual window appears where I would see all the available tables to link to but no tables are listed, it's blank.Database in an "inconsistent state" and other errors
Hello. I was directed here for help by Microsoft Tech Support because the problem is "file specific" and not at the app level. I am not computer savvy and have never used a forum like this. Tech support just kind of dumped me here and said "have at it," so any guidance, help, etc. would be appreciated. I use Microsoft Office 365 as a personal/individual subscriber and my Access program started issuing error message over the past week. The biggest concern and problem is around db called Comic Books and I've attached the error message. When I click OK, it attempts to repair, fails and issues the second message. Another database--an earlier copy of Comic Books from mid December-- opens OK, but has its own problems, such as when I attempt to simply copy a table (see third error message). I don't know if these are related. Can anyone help me? Is there any hope for me ever regaining access to the Comic Books database which was last accessible and working on January 4? Thank you.
How do I reference query data from an Access Macro
I have a simple Select query that returns a number of records. In my Access macro (just for clarification, I do mean Access Macro and not VBA) I want to check how many records the query returns in an IF statement. In this specific case the check would be on zero returned records, but being able to check non-zero in the future might be useful. I have tried various internet searches but the only results I found relate to VBA. Suggestions on how to do this check would be appreciated. Thank You
ver2507 bug
I got an Access 2016, it updated itself to version 2507 (build: 19029.20156). Since then I can't use the linked table management interface. I can't refresh linked Excel sheets. The Version 2507 (Build 19029.20136) was still OK, but I can't downgrade my Office 2016. Is there any solution?
Calculating Age In Access
Hi All, Just got a question regarding calculating ages in tables in access. I am on Access 2016, and I have two columns, DOB, and Death Date. I only have one entry for a death date, and if there is not a death date I want to calculate it from today. Would I use a Calculated Field Type? What would I put in it? I found some Vba code, but I don't know how to put that into my table.MS Access Database Decommissioning
Hi folks, We have the following version of the MS Access Database and we are not sure when MicroSoft is decommissioning this version of MS Access Database. We have the latest version of MicroSoft Application installed as a part of our environment, but the actual MS Access Database is the following for one of the databases. Do we need to update this database called Pontiac to the latest version of database. The database itself is showing Access 2007-2016 file format - Access. Do we need to update this database to the latest version of database. We really appreciate your recommendations. Thank you
MS Access Forum Web Design Irritation
🙃 Can we take a vote and get a show of hands for how many MS Access Forum users find the little social media bar on the side of the screen not only unnecessary but also an annoying waste of virtual real estate? 😉 Any chance the site admins could reconsider the location of that annoying little intrusion to possibly find someplace else to try and recruit new members to your OTHER social media outlets? 🤣 A wise old saying that so many members of the current human population seem to have forgotten or never learned is, "Just because you can do something, doesn't necessarily mean that you should." If more people understood those words I would not be here right now typing these words... 🤪 LMAO Have a wonderful day everybody!Distinct Count Subquery, MS Access
Need some help in getting a Distinct Count result in this query. For context, i work in healthcare and of course an not share the actual data behind the query. My goal is to modify the current quiery - which returns total charges by account financial class (medicaid, commercial, medicare, sellf pay) and account date within a given month (post date, in the query), but add on a distinct count of hospital accounts in the grouping. Current SQL below, all data lives in the ez_hosp_chg_v. table. End goal is to return a distinct count of the bold/red data point: "HOSP_ACCT_ID" SELECT ez_hosp_chg_v.POST_DATE, ez_hosp_chg_v.TX_FIN_CLASS, ez_hosp_chg_v.ACCT_CLASS, Sum(ez_hosp_chg_v.ORIG_AMT) AS SumOfORIG_AMT, ez_hosp_chg_v.PRIMARY_PLAN_NAME, ez_hosp_chg_v.HOSP_ACCT_ID FROM ez_hosp_chg_v GROUP BY ez_hosp_chg_v.POST_DATE, ez_hosp_chg_v.TX_FIN_CLASS, ez_hosp_chg_v.ACCT_CLASS, ez_hosp_chg_v.PRIMARY_PLAN_NAME, ez_hosp_chg_v.HOSP_ACCT_ID HAVING (((ez_hosp_chg_v.POST_DATE) Between [enter start date] And [enter end date])); I've attempted incorporating a subquery like this distinct count example, but can't get the syntax correct in my version: source: https://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/threads/count-unique-values-in-a-query.327614/ Any help or pointers are appreciated. -Joe
