Table relationships lost when ran splitting wizard. WHY?

Ed
I am running Access 2002 and just ran the built in Access wizard for
splitting a database into a back end (with tables) and front end (with
queries, forms, modules, etc.).

After running the wizard, I opened the table relationship view and noticed
that all the relationships are missing. Is this supposed to happen? If so,
why? I've noticed that queries are behaving strangely now, seemingly
because the relationships are not established.

Am I supposed to go into the back end database and reestablish the
relationships? Or, am I supposed to do that in the front end database.

This behavior seems odd. Is this an Access 2002 bug?

Thank you for your help!

Ed

It shouldn't but then I've never used the splitting wizard. I'd go into the BE and
see if the relationship view is still there. You may need to click on the Show All
button on the tool bar.

If the layout is missing then use the appropriate sysrels tool from
www.trigeminal.com to copy the relationships window layout.

And if the relationships are not indeed in the backend you can still use the sysrels
utility to copy the relationships window layout. You'll have to drag and drop the
relationships yourself but that'll be less work.

Tell us more.

No, relationships are always created in the MDB in which the tables reside.

Tony, in one app I did I set my relationships in I visited the relationships window
later on and the window had myriads of tables in it, lines crisscrossing all over the
place. It looked like a spaghetti western. Is that normal as you define an application
and build and expand it?

No. Or rather some of mine do indeed look like spaghetti but then I
designed the layouts that way. <smile> One of mine prints on a 48"
plotter and takes three feet of paper.

I have had that happen when I import the BE into a new BE. The
tables are placed on a grid and the lines are running all over the
place.

But this is where the sysrels utility comes in. It will copy the old
relationships window layout.

Just as an add-in to this thread there is a utility on my site that
allows you to save/restore multiple views of the Relationship window.
http://www.lebans.com/saverelationshipview.htm
NEW - Jan 21/2004 A2KSave-RestoreRelationshipWindow.zip is an MDB

Allows an unlimited number of different Relationship Window Views to be
saved.

Michael I finally took a look at the BLOB data in the MSysObjects table.
I was able to decipher the indvidual window coordinates from the data.
Without voiding any NDA you are under can you tell me if the location of
the window coordinates are fixed/static across all versions of Access?
Or do I need to continue to decipher the header for this BLOB?
For anyone interested the relevant BLOB is in the MSysObjects table. The
desired row has a NAME field = "ADMIN".

It is perfectly safe, and this is what happens any time you modify schema
outside of Access (using ADO or DAO, etc.) and then later open the window in
Access -- it properly discards items that are no longer present.

Well, its no NDA violation since I dod not know if they ever plan to change
this. Of course, if they do then they have a wizard to update (the Print
Relationships wizard), so they may well keep it stable.
For anyone interested the relevant BLOB is in the MSysObjects table. The
desired row has a NAME field = "ADMIN".


Actually, it is whatever user name is the person looking at the
relationships window (thats why SysRel lets you save it under any name at
all).

Ah, yes, I recall a tip from someone, somewhere who stated that if you wanted a
different relationships view to logon to Access using a different userid.

Yes, if you call Jet directly then there are all kinds of ways around rules.
In this case, the table in question is not secured using Jet security, so it
is easy enough to write data (for tables that have actual Jet security
permissions-based restrictions, this method would not be helpful).

I still think saving it in the actual Access format would be cooler. And
there is no shame in having an external library, you know!
