I'm an experienced mainframe programmer, but new to programming in Access. I have an application written in VBA that attempts to export the results of a query to an Excel spreadsheet using code like this - -
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputQuery, qryCountView, "Microsoft Excel (*.xls)", strXLSOutputFileName, False
-
I have found on some occasions that the application falls over because the query code just seems to have disappeared. I cant find any repeatable set of circumstances that seem to cause this.
Clearly there are workarounds, such as running the query into a recordset then exporting that etc., but I really want to know if anyone has discovered a reason for this.
(Eddie Wang posted a similar question on November 13th, 2005 - Thread #22250 but didn't seem to get a satisfactory answer. Anyone found anything since?)

What do you mean by your query code disappears? You mean the query gets deleted? The query doesn't run correctly? Are there any error messages? Queries don't just disappear unless someone or some code is deleting them.

Hello,
We are in the process of examining our current main application. We have to
do some major changes and, in the process, are questionning/validating the
use of MS Access as front-end. The application is relatively big: around 200
tables, 200 forms and sub-forms, 150 queries and 150 repports, 5GB of data
(SQL Server 2000), 40 users.
I'm wondering what are the disadvantages of using Access as front-end? Other
that it's not...

Architecture: Access 2003 client, Oracle 9i repository, no Access security
in place, ODBC linked tables.
100 or so users, in 3 or 4 groups (Oracle roles actually): Admins, Updaters
and ReadOnly. Each group sees a different set of menu options when they
open the client and login to Oracle.
For the sake of speed I use pass-through queries here and there for updates
and deletes. I update their SQL property in code and execute them.

How do I create one SELECT query in VB .NET that pulls from a SQL Server
database and a MS Access database? The SQL server table has a unique
identifier as a PK and the Access table has a autonumber (replication ID) as

Currently, I am using SQLCommand to access only the SQL server data and DAO
to access only the MS Access data. Is there a way to create a...

Hello All,
I have Access 2003, and am trying to build a database for my small
company. I want to be able to create a word document based on the data
entered through a form. the real question is this: can Access create
the document and place it as an OLE object to the relevant table?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello folks,
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.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
