Re: Database Window Missing

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



I also agree 100% on the SQL Server migration. The client will not budge
off a penny to improve what is currently in production, a bunch of Access
datbases used in a financial business as their reporting tool. Some of the
databases on completion of processing grow to 1.2 GB. Personally knowing the
2 GB upper limit for Access and explaining some of the benefits to SQL
Server, the client still does not want to spend anymore than a penny on a
solution. It is frustrating and disappointing because, when I am gone, there
might be that day the replacement exceeds the 2 GB and then there may be
problems.

As for the size, 80 mb to 320 mb in how many days/weeks/months? Are you
adding alot of forms/tables/queries? If the database is growing this size
because of the data you storing you might want to consider upsizing to a SQL
Server because you're grow to out grow the capabilities of Access rather
quickly.

The database window is missing from my application. I have tried all the
normal option settings and clicked the appropriate menu bar buttons that
would display the window, nothing happens, blank screen where the window
would normall appear.

Observation, the database window screen does seem to have the horizontal
scroll bar all the way to the right and pulling the bar to extreme left
does
not seem to make difference. Horizontal scroll bar returns to extreme
right
position.

The size of the database is also increased from a normal 80 MB to a much
larger 320MB. Compact and repair makes no difference, same size retained
and
no database window appearance.

Any ideas on next move?
