Switchboard issue
Published (2009-11-07 09:56:00)
Hi All, Could anybody tell me please why a switchboard created in Access 2007 produces an error message, something like "Error: Var("Switchboard")" in both Access 2000 AND 2003, despite saving the database in the relevant compatible file format? There is nothing at all complicated about the switchboard, and it was just created using the switchboard manager and the drop-down menus therein. In other words no...

its like anything - say fixing a car if you ask a mechanic what to do, and ignore his recommendations - you cant expect him to help later on when you get in a fix. and if you ask silly stuff, he probably wont bother trying to help in the first place.

First off welcome to the forum. You could do worse than have a browse through the Sample DB Section of the forum. Here's one stock control DB I found there may well be others. You could also have a trawl through this site it may have something.

I have had a similar issue with Access 2007, however, I went with the theory that the computer was old/not updated with the latest windows updates. I did realize that if I hit refresh (F5) the graph would show on that computer.

I'm assuming that all the tracking numbers are the same number of digits. You can use the following code: Code: dim sMyNumber as text sMyNumber = mid(me.TrackingNumber,17,12) This will tell access to go the 17th number and grab the next 12.

+1 I would add: Don't get shirty and defensive when we ask for details of your existing application/code/data or if we ask for an explanation of what you're trying to do in a real-world context. We're not the slightest bit interested in stealing your idea, or data - it's just impossible to help you unless you properly explain what it is you're trying to do.

I use multiple back ends a lot. I have for years without any issues. I even have back end in different formats. Some table in an Access database and some table in an SQL server. With multiple back ends, you can not enforce RI between table in different back ends. You have to write your own code to enforce it. I am really curious: What was the reason not to have multiple back ends?

You want to make sure that the database is split up into a front end (Has the forms, queries, reports) and a back end (Stores the tables). You link the tables from the back end to the front end. You also want to make sure that EACH user has their OWN copy of the front end on their local drive. This will prevent corruption and not bring down everybody if the front end experiences issues.
