Thanks for replies but they did not help. Then I searched the internet some more, and some expert wrote this: "If you're going to use the Access runtime, there are a couple things to beware. 1. If you choose to deploy an Access database to users using the Runtime edition, bear in mind that the...

I created a database on my desktop (WIN 7) using Access 2013. To test Access Runtime I used a computer with WIN XP Home, disabled Access 2000 and downloaded Access Runtime 2010. Then by memory stick I placed my database in the WIN XP computer and tried to open that database. It didn't work...

That didn't work either, but I have sort of solved the problem myself, although cannot explain the reason. I got my home net work up and running, and using Access 2007 on the laptop opened my difficult file on the desktop. It worked. So I exited and copied the file from desktop to laptop using...

The desktop says "Microsoft Access 2013 (15.0.4551.1506) MSO (15.0.4551.1508) 32-bit" so presumably is 32 bit. The laptop, in the same area says "Microsoft Access 2007 (12.0.6606.1000) SP3 MSO (12.0.6683.5000)" so don't know what that is. Sorry don't know how to 'Compile the database, or for...

I have Access 2013 on my desktop and have created a detailed database using it. I copied the file onto a memory stick and then connected the memory stick to my laptop that has Access 2007 on it. To my amazement Access 2007 was unable to open the file. Is this surprising and can I have...

Hi I am a long time user of Access 2000 and am happy to use design mode but my expertise is no deeper than that. I now have access 2013 on this computer. I belong to an organisation that has a database of members hosted on the internet. I am able to export the members onto my computer and...

I have made a new access 2013 database. I have created a linked table that has imported a substantial amount of data from an external data source, (an Excel spreadsheet). So far no problem. I created a select query that plucked data from the original table mentioned. Again, no problem. Then I...

Hi I am an experienced user of Access but my programming skills are very limited. I have used access 2000 for many years but only in a data storage way. I have recently purchased Access 2013 and wish to be slightly more ambitious
