I have an access database replicated over a network. Recently and more
often, after I fill one record into the database, and then try to
replicate it, I get this message "scaling of decimal values resulted in
data truncation".
I think there is nothing wrong with my database, because the same
record, introduced on another computer gives me no errors. And after
replacing the faulty replica on that computer, everything works fine.
(for a while)
And I have another question... when I copy a replica (or even the
design master) on another computer, it's the same thing whith creating
replicas from the design master? 5 3058

I'm not sure. Have you compacted the problematic replica?

Copying replicas ONE TIME is OK. That is, if you have a computer
and
it has no replica on it, you can copy a replica there, and it will
work fine.
However, that replica can *not* then be copied back to some other
location and synched withthe replica set. Once a replica is in its
location it has to stay there -- any copying operation always
creates a new ReplicaID, even if the file is the same (it's the
different location that causes Jet to generate a new RreplicaID).
Replicas created by copying are *not* the same as replicas created
from the Design Master, unless you're actually copying the design
master. THe difference is in the replica priority, which controls
how conflicts are resolved.
If you're copying just to create a new replica, that's fine.
If you're copying over top of an existing replica, then that's
very,
very bad. -- search the microsoft.publi c.access.replic ation
newsgroup for the phrase "dead replicas."

Thanks. I think this helped a lot.
And I have another question.
Sometimes, when I make a replica from the design master, the macros
(which are also replicated) within that replica doesn't work. I get
this error "the macro or it's macro group (or macro name, I can't
remember) doesn't exist". But the macros are there, I can see them....
but they don't work.

You should never replicate anything but tables and queries.
Forms, reports, macros and modules should be in a separate MDB that
is not replicated.

Ok, now I know that.... at that time I didn't.
I am going to convert the entire dtabase in a front-end and back-end
database. (that's how I should do, no?) But for now I need a quick
solution... Is there a way I can make those macros work?

I don't know. I've never replicated front ends, so have never
encountered any such problem.

Hello all,
Currently we are implementing an Access database which has to send some (not
much) data over a WAN. We are using an Access front end and an Access back
end. Basicly the front end runs local, but at the end of the session the
front end needs to write the data to the back end on the WAN.
The responsible IT manager asked me to use a ODBC linkage between the
database, since this sends smalles packages of data (which minimizes the...

Hi,
I've been using an Access application I wrote for an office with the
front-end stored on all computers and the back-end on one of them serving as
an Access file server.
Now we're moving to a 2nd office 15 minutes down the road. Only one office
will be open at a time, so theoretically it'd be possible to copy the
back-end manually every night from one office to another, but frankly,
that's pretty annoying.

I suspect this isn't possible, but I recently moved a app to SQL Server
and it contains a Project table. Now I have a new CRM tool that needs
to be mobile, but should also synch with the Project table on SQL Server.
I really like the idea of replicating an Access database for the mobile
users and somehow synching with the SQL server for the Projects. Is
that doable?

Hi all,
I am working on portal which is using MS Access 2003 database. The
problem that I am facing is that once I received data from vendors I
have to upload whole Access Database file to server.
Initially it is not an issue but after increasing the size of database
file(nearly to 50 MB) it is now difficult to upload such file on
server.

If you are looking for opinon on what's useful in Access 2007, there's a new
article at:
http://allenbrowne.com/Access2007.html
Covers what's good (useful features), what's mixed (good and bad), what's
gone (features removed), what's fixed (old issues solved), what's broken
(new bugs), configuration, compatibility, should you buy, and links.
It is opinion, so you may disagree, but hopefully it's an informative
summary.
