H Hi Arnel, I don't have the .DLL file inside this folder on my PC. However on my colleague's PC which has been updated to the new OFFICE 365, I have selected Microsoft Office 16.0 Access Database Engine Object Library, and I don't get a .DLL error, so all is working OK on the new update...

Hi Both. When I select Microsoft Office 16.0 Access Database Engine Object Library and select OK, I get an Error in loading DLL File message. Is there a .dll file that I need to download do you know? Thanks

Hi All. So our company is upgrading for Office 2010 to Office 365. I have attempted to open the .MDE Front End that we currently use and get a message about the version not being compatible. My plan was to upgrade the Front End, Back End, and Design Copy that I use all to .ACCDB files. I...

Hi Isaac, I don't have the admin rights to be able to do a clean install of 2010 in my workplace unfortunately. I will try doing it at home on a clean install of 2010, and see if the issue is solved. Thanks

Hi Gina, I am opening the database in Access 2010. I created a blank database in Access 2010 and imported all objects from a 2003 - 2007 .mdb file, and saved this as a .accdb file. So I believe it is therefore classed as a 2010 database. Thanks

Hi arnel, I have unticked the Microsoft Office 16.0 Access Database Object. I have then browsed for the acedao.dll and selected open. Am I meant to now see an option to now tick Microsoft Office 14 Access Database Engine as I don't currently see one? Yes we only have Microsoft Office 2010...

Hi bastanu, I tried what you said and initially nothing happened, then after around 30 seconds or so the following popped up: When I click OK I get the following: Also. I have just been working from an MDE on a PC that I don't normally use. The MDE also uses the call shell function...

I am using x32. I have searched for the acedao.dll and it is located in the following folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14 Does this need to be moved elsewhere?

That's something I'll definitely look in to going forward. How big was the backend that you had? This is only currently around 134mb, which doesn't seem like it would cause an issue, but I'm new to this so could be wrong.

The references that were checked in my new front end that I was trying to compile are: I have opened the old front end and the references that are checked are: I assume that I would have to add a reference for the Microsoft Office 14.0 Access database engine Object, and the only one that...

I've never compiled the database before. I've just had a quick check on how to do this from the link below: https://www.fmsinc.com/MicrosoftAccess/Performance/Decompile.asp I entered the following ("C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14\MSACCESS.exe" /decompile) and opened the...

I have created blank databases and exported the Frontend to one and the Backend to the other, so they're now both .accdb files. When distributing a new version of the front end to users in the past, I have Saved and Published the backend and created a .mde file. I am now given the option to...

Hi Arnel, I'm not sure what you mean by dir the .exe There are 8 people who use the button within the department. It currently works for 2 members of staff, but not for the other 6. This makes me think that it is something to do with our IT team, and some users having installed new updates.

Hi conception, So the mdb error continues to occur, but less frequent than previous. I am going to follow your advice on creating new files. So I opened up our version of Access which is the 2010. I have gone to import the backend data in to a new database, and have now come across the...

Hi Roger. How would you go about updating the old MDB files? conception native has advised me to create a new blank database and import all objects in to it, is this what you've done too?

Hi Gasman, This is the location of the file. The file path within the properties is H:\QA90PRO32\QA90pro.exe I have changed the code behind the button to include the following .exe file stAppName = "H:\Visi Download Backup\Visi-Download\Visi-Download.exe" Call Shell(stAppName, 1)...

Hi arnelgp. I have removed the rem and get the following: When I enter Shell "H:\QA90PRO32\Qa90pro.exe" in to the Immediate Window, I get the following: Hope this makes sense, thanks for your reply.

Hi All. I have taken over a database which the code was written for many years ago. One of the forms contains 2 buttons that open a .exe file. One button opens the .exe that is stored on the user's home drive, and the other opens the .exe that is stored on their C: Drive. Around 4 weeks ago...

Sorry, I don't understand exactly what you mean by internal formatting? I have updated the Front End a couple of times this year to include new features, do you mean the formatting in the code in the front end could be causing the issue? In the past this unrecognised database format error has...

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately I don't have the admin rights to perform this fix so easily. Getting our IT team involved will likely take a few weeks for any action. I will get this reported to them and request for them to perform this workaround. I will try a few other things in the...
