Hi all, I have encountered two problems when using linked tables; the linked
table is connected to SQL server 2000.
1) How can I add the N prefix of a string constant in a query in order to
search for double byte characters? I found that the search returns no result
if no N prefix is added. If I use passthrough query, it works. Any
suggestion if I do want an access select query instead of passthrough query
in this case?
2) There will be a table locks in the SQL server if I browse a link table
directly. Is there any possible way such that the cursor if at client side
instead of server side so that no table is locked if I browse a table? Thx!!

Not sure I can help with the first question - without access to the
tables, etc.
The second one - if you create a pass through query to the MS SQL
table you will not lock the table as you browse. Directly linking to
the MS SQL table will cause significant locking/performance issues on
SQL Server

Actually the database is given for a semi-technical user to use that
his level of query technique is just up to building simple query. It
is not exepected that he is able to build any pass through query. So I
just want to find out if client side cursor is possible to use so that
the result set is downloaded to Access first so that no table locking
is done. Me****@Computer SOSNJ.com (MeadeR) wrote in message news:<32******* *************** ***@posting.goo gle.com>... Not sure I can help with the first question - without access to the

If you create a pass through query, say:
Select *
From tblMSSQL
and name it ptSQL
you can then call that query from another access query and/or query wizard - such
as:
Select *
From ptSQL
That's one of the best things about Access - one query can easily call another
so you can build complexity one step at a time ah***@hotmail.c om (Freelobly Li) wrote in message news:<17******* *************** ****@posting.go ogle.com>... Actually the database is given for a semi-technical user to use that

Hi all,
I've got a Front End / Back End database that was working just fine.
One day i opened the FE to find that if I tried to open one of the
linked tables from the database window, nothing happened (hourglass
for about 2 seconds then nothing).
I tried relinking the tables and got the same response. (Access even
completely bombed out once with a Dr Watson failure).

Hello,
I am having a problem with linked lists. My program is based on a
client server model. The client sends some packets of data to the
server. The server reads those packets and is supposed to store the
data in a linked list. It looks like everything works except for the
fact that the linked list only stores the last value sent and the
number of nodes in the linked list is way to high. For example the
client sends 4 create...

Hi,
I have gone throught the group and Microsoft's online help and have
seen many suggestions but I am still seeking clarity:
1. I have an excel spreadsheet. Column A contains text that may be
greater than 255 characters.
2. I have an access database. I link (not import) to the contents of
the excel spreadsheet. In the design view in access, Column A has the
data type "memo".

If you have access to the database that the linked table is in, modify
it there. You can't modify a linked table. Alternatively, you can
import the linked table, then it won't be linked any more and you can
modify it. There are potential problems with this strategy, as you will
be working on a copy of the original table, so any new data that goes
into the original table from elsewhere will not be reflected in your
database.
