Hi guys,
I've been stuck on this problem for days now at work and its driving me insane. Basically there is a system in place at multiple locations that is an open source project running with ms access. This system holds customer records and order data, and its written in asp.
We have a web service that sits at each of these locations written in vb.net and it is called by our system, on one of our servers. The web service is used online, customers create orders, most of this data gets stored in our sql server database (which omg i wish they would use instead of access... ), and then gets sent over the web service. I open one connection to the database for the duration of the call, which inserts multiple rows into two tables.
At the same time, there is an interface running on the local sites, which refreshes every 10 seconds or so. I'm not entirely sure what happens in this code, because of the poor coding and many include files, but I can gather that it is at least doing a read of the database, and there is possibly and update being made too.
It seems as though if that interface is refreshing at the time of the order being placed with the web service, I will get a database lock error through the web service.
Is it possible in access to specify NOLOCK, or only row locks for updates? I Thought that access allows a number of connections to the database before it starts locking like this. I have that default lock setting in access to be 'no locks', i've, I found online some extra properties to add to the connection string in the web service that allow shared mode and no locking.
In asp with a record set, can i stop a table being locked with select and/or update statements? I feel like i've made a number of changes to all sides of things and nothing helps.
I've also been told they dont ever encounter problems instore, when staff create new orders locally. Multiple members can create orders at the same time too. This makes me feel as though its a problem with the web service, however I never receive the locking issue unless I have that interface running too.
I know its a fairly long post and may not make a whole lot of sense, but if you have any questions/answers for me, ill give you a clearer understanding.
Thanks guys!

Helpful folks,
Most of my previous experience with DB2 was on s390 mainframe systems
and the optimizer on this platform always seemed very predictable and
consistent. Since moving to a WinNT/UDB 7.2 environment, the choices
the optimizer makes often seem flaky. But this last example really
floored me. I was hoping someone could explain why I get worse
response time when the optimizer uses two indexes, than when it uses
one. Some context:

Hi - I have a database on a network, and each user logins using a
shortcut from his PC to the shared database. There is a table created by
a make-table query that locks up whenever more than one user is in the
database. It doesn't matter that the users open completely different
clients, forms, etc, as long as there are more than one user opens the
database this table locks up. And the function that recalculates the
amount doesn't work.

I'm using Access 2002, as front-end and back-end as well:
1) I faced database corrupted problems, when more than 1 user edit

I'm using All-records Locking, and open-exclusively as default.
But, still face the same problem: Database corrupted! (But, it allows
to be repaired)
2) I found that the relationship linkage between those related

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
