I'm trying to distribute an app also. Thanks for letting me know about the changes. I also, don't want to make all those changes, but might have to as well. What a drag.
Bob,
I believe the db from Skydrive was split and you have the FE. I didn't put the BE file on there, so you should get an error because of the tablelinker code. I believe it should still work for you? Let me know otherwise.
Thanks,
Rob www.tradexaccounting.ca
I did remove the link and I also deleted the file from Skydrive.
Thanks for downloading that quickly.
While you are here, I have instructions for the email I would send a customer just after purchase with the download instructions et al.
What do you think of this?
Downloading and Using...
[/URL] Thanks for making that available. I shall take a look at it this week end when I have more time.
Bob, Thanks for the warning. I already thought of that and I will remove now that it has been distributed.
I'm glad that Bob got it quickly.
Thanks for your concern.
Rob
Hi Bob:
Before you clickon the link to view the db, please do not sell or giveaway the db to anyone. It is copyright.
Thanks for looking at it and not selling or giving it away.
Like to hear what you think.
Rob
I'm not experienced in the programming side of things, i.e vb and some what experienced in Access. But I did make an app for accounting. The db is split, and I'm afraid of selling it exactly forthe reasons you mention in your post. I would love it if someone knew alot about the above enough to...
Gary,
If you read this here it's because I received an alert about an instant message,but didn't receive the message.
I will try to answer your questions re the selling of the Accounting db.
I'm going by memeoery here. It will be sold via the internet google and bing advertising,not direct...
That's good Bob that you also knew to develop fromthe beginning with the db split. I was just saying to pbaldy that I didn't know when I first began developing tosplit before development.
Everyhting seems to work fine on it as a monolithic db. I hope I have no problems after, but it is to...
I know that I'm potentially losing for the time being. I don't know anyone who has a network to test it on. That's a tempproblemI hope. As far as you testing even during or before development, I just read that was the way to go. I wish I had known that before development. Good workon...
Thanks PBaldy, I'll check out those sites. I haven't tested the db in a multi-ser environment, so I'm not sure if it will work. I assume it should. I also assume I couls split an .mde . I hope,once split,the db will work on Access 2002 and up.
Take care,
Rob
Well, it looks like the votes win here. I created this db with a lot of help from access and vb mvp's. Thanks to both of you for your input. I'm planning on distributing the db via a zip folder. I know how to split the db, but sending a split db to a user would be useless. I do not know how to...
