MSDE and Access 2000

Hi everyone,

In using the SQL Server Database Wizard in Access 2000 to create a new
access project, I get two consecutive error messages and then the wizard
shuts down. The first, which apprears immediately after starting the wizard
is a message box stating something like "the property value is too large".
After clicking through and filling out the values in the connection and
database dialog, I get a second dialog box with the message "Overflow" and
the wizard terminates.

My operating system is Windows 2000 Professional with Access 2000 and MSDE
2000.

Does anyone have any thoughts about what might be causing these errors?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Stephen

Have a look at Microsoft Knowledge Base Article Q272384
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;EN-US;272384

It describes the overflow error when creating a MS Access project on MSDE
2000.
Apparently, installing MS Office Service Pack 3 should fix the problem.

Hope this helps!

Martin

Thanks, Martin. I'll take a look at the article and see if it helps. As
far as the office version, I'm using Access 2000 (9.0.2720) and Office
2000, but I don't know the service pack status.

Open Access -> Help -> About Microsoft Access

At the end of first line it should say e.g. SP-1, SP-2 etc depending
on what service pack is installed.

Hi all, Here is my situation. I have an application that uses SQL 2000. The client has a program that uses MSDE. The client MUST have the MSDE version of the Database.

On my clients server, they have both MSDE and SQL 2000 installed the...

Since an ASP.NET/ADO.NET website is run on the server by a single "asp_net worker process", therefore doesn't that mean that even 50 simultaneous human users of the website would appear to the database backend as a single user.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
