I'm creating a database in Access 2000 in XP Pro (SP2), I have downloaded
Allen Browne's pop up calender for use in my database, and imported the
forms: frmCalender, frmExample and the Module ajbCalender. I have one date
field (Date) on my main Access Input Records form, I renamed it to
txtStartDate and set the click button property to:
=CalendarFor([txtStartDate], "Select the date")but then I cannot save my
form (Input Records) with this new button, as Access informs me that I now
do not have exclusive rights to my own database! I have noticed that a
lockfile.9 file has also created. Please can you tell me how to remedy this
as I really like your calender option.

The error message does not relate to the calendar control. It has no rights
attached, so it is not the cause of the message.
Access creates an ldb file when you open your database in non-exclusive mode
(shared). It should delete this file when it closes. If it crashes, the file
may be left there, containing spurious information. While Access is not
running, delete the ldb if you see it. Then try again.
You could also compact your database:
Tools | Database Utilities | Compact.
Hopefully that will get you going.

Hi Allen,
I have compacted and repaired my databaes as you suggested, I can run the
downloaded calender db from your website, ok, the problem I repeatedly have
is that when I import the two forms and the module from your calender db
over into my database I always recieve the following error...
The expression on Open you entered as the event property setting produced
the following error:Error accessing file. Network connection may have been
lost.
* The expression may or may not result in the name of a macro, the name of a
user-defined function, or [Event Procedure]
* There may have been an error evaluating the function, event, or macro.....
PS I am opening up my db in exclusive mode..

Jan,
If you don't have Office 2000 SP3 installed, you may have just run into a
nasty bug. For more information, see this article. http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;304548
To fix this problem, the SaveAsText option for all objects will help. You
will find information on doing that here. http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/corr...uptobjects.htm http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/...p/t-66320.html http://www.dbforums.com/t1080847.html

Hi, I'm a bit confused ... when would I rather write an database
application using MS Access and Visual Basic and when (and why) would I
rather write it using Visual Studio .Net?
Is it as easy in Visual Studio to create reports and labels as it's in
Access?`
The advantage of VS.net is that not every user needs Access, right? And
that would eliminate the Access version problem as well I guess.
