Updating the front end on local server

[oxicottin]

Christ, that was a workup as my DB was pointing to the workserver location and have the relinks did not work.

Anyway, it behaves OK with me as far as I could see?

However on that DB I used Tabbed Forms.?

Thanks for looking, no biggie it doesn't hurt anything. After the first time you open it, its normal again!

I have one more thing I want to do to this updater I'm using. I wanted to be able in the formatted message box that it gives the user to also add what the changes were done in the database.

In the on load of your first form you paste the code from (tbl-code_repository) and in that code I changed the standard message box to a formatted message box with a function in the module (bas_FEUpdating). I wanted to create a table (tbl-new_version_discription) and be able to enter how and what goes into that messagebox. Any ideas how it can be done?

I kept a version number and a memo field in a table, so I could see he changes per version, as one of my DBS was quite dynamic in that the bosses always wanted something added on, or I found a bug.?
You know your version number (hopefully the last and greatest number?, just lookup the contents of the memo field.

Using Access 2016. I have an issue trying to Split my database. It stops in middle and says one of my tables is corrupted or too complicated. The table seems fine. Any suggestions? Thank you in advance.

Firstly, make a copy of the database if you don't have backup copies already. Then Compact/repair the database. That will probably fix the problem.

If not, split the tables out by creating an empty db, import the tables into it. Then delete the tables from the FE and then link to the tables in the BE

Hi Cronk, tried to Compact/Repair, but the same result. I created a blank database on our network, then imported all the tables. Compact/Repaired them. I was prompted if I wanted this locations to be a trusted site, I chose, Yes. Deleted the tables from the Frontend. Linked the Frontend to the Backend Tables. Compact/Repaired the Frontend. Opened my Switchboard Form. The Form is a Dashboard and Main Menu. The dashboard pulls in data from the BE tables to display the statuses and mileages of a vehicle fleet. It took about 3-minutes to load the Switchboard Form. First time running on the network. Refreshes take about 2-3 seconds to update. Other than that it seems fine. Thank you very much for your assistance!
