BE on 365 w/ Access 2013

need a sanity check from those that are further along on this:
1: Made a web database, just tables only, via Access 2013 which defacto is at 365 teamsite... let's call Wdb
Opening then a local traditional database - Lets call Local.accdb, and selecting the option to link to a Sharepoint List - - - that Wdb is not displayed/available so therefore the tables/lists inside are not either.... that's the first sanity check
point. whether there is any way to link to Wdb.
Part deux: With a traditional db i.e. Local.accdb; with local not-split tables - then one can export/split to sharepoint lists - appearantly as long as there are no Look Up type fields....
C: SP lists are only available to a classic FE link only if they are not inside an Access container on SP (i.e. not Wdb)...and so if you had more than 1 classic FE application at the same 365 account one has to be sure that no 2 tables have the same name....because
all tables/lists on SP are co-mingled - - perhaps they can be segregated into folders - am not an SP admin and so inexperienced on that point.....
4: after the split to SP (part deux above) there is a link to a list "User Info" that SP throws in....what is that for? and does it offer a feature to design around/with?
As an aside ; have watched A.Kallal's youtube on this which I remember as publishing via 2010 while here am exclusively in A2013..... the goal, via A2013, is linking a classic FE to the cloud BE.....
experienced advice most welcomed on this.....

1/. A Web 2013 db is not a sharepoint list but a SQL Azure database. You will need to link to this via standard remote linking techniques using ODBC with connection strings like
gstrConn1 = "ODBC;Description=mydb;DRIVER=SQL Server Native Client 11.0;SERVER=xxxxxxxxxx.database.windows.net;" _
& "UID=db_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx_ExternalWriter;database=db_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx;" _
& "Encrypt=yes;Pwd=xxxxxxxxxxxxxx;"
deux/. You can also export to a Azure SQL Server. (ODBC Database)
C/. As i understand it you can link to any lsit that you have permissions for.
4/. (shouldn't this be iv??? as you already used this form! lol) not sure about this never used this feature.
With A2013 linking with ODBC to the SQL Server database as in 1/ above works well. a desktop system will work and share with the cloud.
Good luck

Can't Edit Data in Access 2013 Web App

I have an Office 365 P1 account that I have been using to create apps in Access 2010. I tried Access 2013. But when I launch an app, it loads in my Office 365, but editing data is not enabled (the Add and Edit buttons are displayed, but not enabled).
I have tried creating a new custom web app with one simple table and a view, as well as creating one using a Microsoft pre-built template, and simply creating the app and launching it. In both cases, the app displays, but I cannot add or edit data.
Is there something with my Office 365 account that is limiting my ability to work with Access 2013 web apps?
Thank you!

Hi KrisMarshall7,
In regarding of the issue, please provide us more information to assist you better.
What the file format is your Access 2007 file? MDB or ACCDB?
Where do you want to add the columns? Table, form or query?
As far as I know,
the limitation of columns in a table is 250. Thus, I suppose that the database had some hidden columns. Please try to check it. Steps:
Right-click any field title, then select Unhide Fields. A dialog box will appear. Click the check boxes of any fields you would like to be visible again, then click Close.
Hope it's helpful.

George Zhao

Access 2013 Web reporting seems to be missing

I have a simple request from a user to print out a list of the database in a nicely formatted form. Should take 10 minutes (or so I thought). The version is Access 2013 web.
It appears that this simple request is not easily done. There appears not to be a reporting function in the Web version of Access. I spent a long time looking for it and decided that it just isn't there.
For my second choice I decided to deploy the desktop version and create the reports there, but can't get a connection to the SQL Server where the Access Web App stores my data in SharePoint.
I found a web link showing me how to hook up Excel to the SQL server supporting the web app database. I have gone to the Web Access FILE\INFO screen and selected the Manage Connections section. Followed the instructions
for enabling a read only connection and then copied and pasted the server, database name, username and password into Excel using the "From other sources" button, then selecting the "From Data Connection Wizard", Selected other/advanced
and then SQL Server Native Client 11.0. It does not find the server when I test the connection. I constantly get a time out.
I am using a 365 SharePoint server to host my access web site. I called 365 Tech support and spent hours trying to work this out with people that didn't know anything about Access. The SharePoint people didn't understand the problem of not
being able to connect and was eventually told that it wasn't a feature they offered.
As an aside, with 18 years experience in developing Access applications, I am looking at other products to replace Access. I didn't jump into Access 2010 web because of the way SharePoint handled the database, but this is worse. Hate to walk away
from the experience I have, but seems I have been left little choice.

See if this blog post that our support team created helps you with the connection information. This can create the desktop Access application linked up to the Access 2013 web app tables you have.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/the_microsoft_access_support_team_blog/archive/2014/03/24/how-to-make-external-connections-to-an-access-web-app-new.aspx
Also, you might just try clicking the Create Reports button in the Access web app client interface and Access will create the reporting database for you with links to the web app tables. On the File menu (when using the Access web app in client) make sure
to click the option to Allow Any Location under the Manage button. After that, just click the Create Reports button on the File menu (right above the Manage button) and wait a few seconds. Access will create a new desktop database linked up to all of the Access
web app tables. You can then create as many reports or other desktop objects as you like.
Hope that helps,

Sequencing Access 2013

Thank in advance for any replies.... I understand that Office 365 has an method to create an App-V Sequence and to disable certain features/apps. However my company would like to separately sequence Access 2013 so that it could be deployed totally
separate from the Office 365 sequence or package.
Could you tell me if this is possible and if so where I could find details on creating a sequence for Access 2013 apart from Office 365. It is possible that we could also be using a standalone license Access 2013.
Thank you!

Hi,
If we want to deploy a Stand-alone App-V Sequence Access 2013, we might try to set the Product ID in the CustomConfig.xml file as ProPlusVolume and used ExcludeApp tags to exclude all apps except for Access:
Lync
Excel
Groove
InfoPath
OneNote
Outlook
PowerPoint
Project
Publisher
SharePointDesigner
Visio
Word
Here is the similar issue and our customer has verified it.

On the other hand, if you want to get a Volume license of standalone Access 2013, please connect the MS Volume Licensing Service Center to get more help.

Can't Find ODBC drivers to link MS Access 2013 and MySQL

Can't Find ODBC drivers to link MS Access 2013 and MySQL.
Is one available?
Thanks,
Larry

Could to associate the problem at Office 2013?
I just installed the ODBC Driver; The data source machine was available; When selected I had received the message. When it was selected I had received the message:
"ODBC -- falha na chamada.
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] O DSN especificado contém uma incompatibilidade de arquiteturas entre o Driver e o Aplicativo (#0)"
In english, could to say: "ODBC -- fail on call.
... The specified DSN contains a architectural incompatibility between Driver and App (#0)"
I don't know yet the reason for this. Anyone knows?

Fields missing from dbo.MSP_EpmProject_UserView when connected via ODBC to Access 2013

Odd things here ---
Both the dbo.MSP_EpmProject_UserView and the MSP_EpmProject tables, are missing a number of fields including: ProjectName; ProjectAuthorName; ProjectManagerName, etc. Looked in the schema to make sure I wasn't crazy, and they are listed there
just like in 2007.
Using Project Server 2013 (on-prem) and Access 2013.
Suggestions?

Hello,
I've not tried from Access before so cant comment on that but I assume if you connect using Excel 2013 the data and columns are correct?

Access 2013 and SharePoint Foundation/Server 2010

I have a real simple scenario that keeps happening.
I simple click external data -> More -> SharePoint List from Access 2013 and point it to a SharePonint 2010 list ... then link the list. It will link and show the data. Once... After closing the access file, it just freezes when opening
it again.
I've tried this on several windows clients (win7 and 8) and 2 different SharePoint 2010 installs (1 being Foundation, the other being Server). Both are service packed.
Any ideas?

I believe i too am running into this issue.
I have a CRM application i created in Access 2010 which links to lists on Sharepoint Foundation 2010 (As bundled with Small Business Server 2010) using SSL. I have this application running on various client machines, some on the local network and some via
the internet. Until now we have been entirely Access 2010 and whenever a new client was required i just copied over the Access front end and it just worked.
We have a new PC which has Win7 Pro 64bit and Office 2013 Pro. I copied over the front end but when i try and open one of the linked sharepoint lists Access just hangs with the spining circle. I have no problem accessing these lists on SP via Internet Explorer
and furthermore if i select "Open with Access" and link a list it then opens within Access 2013 OK, (although Windows Security does prompt for the users password). However, if i save this database and re-open it i can no longer open the list!!
I have noticed that if i run Access 2013 as administrator and open the front end application then there is no problem.
Possible permissions issue???
If i repeat what Eric describes, Access 2013 shows me all the lists on out SP site and successfully links it (i.e. It appears under Tables) however, unlike Eric the list won't open (not even once).

5、Where the access crashed I used the ODBC trace to get the trace log of the ODBC API.
The ODBC API called by Access before it crashed are the follows.
I also ansysised the log,and I did not find any Abnormal.

6、I also did the test with the Access 2010,and with the Sql Srever/Oracle.
The results are the follows.
1) With the Access 2010(X86 or X64) and Access 2013 X86,it successes when I export the table to the DB Symfoware.But only with the Access 2013 X64,the Access crashed.
2)With the Access 2010(X86 or X64) and Access 2013(X86 or X64),using the Sql Srever/Oracle,it always successes .
According to all the descrived above, I wonder if it a bug of the Access2013 .
Could anyone can help me ?
Thanks for any help.

George Zhao
Thank you for your help.
I have already install
the latest patches of the Office 2013.But it doesn't work.It is down also too. And ODBC
drive of Database Symfoware is the newest driver of the Database Symfoware. Now I wonder that
if it si a bug of the ODBC
drive of Database Symfoware,I should fix the bug,but I have analysised the odbc trace log and I do not find any wrongs ,so I think maybe it is a bug of the Access .
I have see many situations about the Access down on the internet .

Unable to open connection to MS Access 2013 .accdb file Under WCF Web Service Project Using Windows 8.1 64bit

I am encountering the following error when trying to connect to an Access 2013 database:
The 'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' provider is not registered on the local machine.
I have Visual Studio 2013 SP3 running on Windows 8.1 64bit OS which also has Office 2013 installed (which includes MS Access 2013). My project is a WCF web service using .NET Framework 4.5.1 using any cpu as target. I have tried reluctantly
to install the older drivers as described by in the below article:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/1d5c04c7-157f-4955-a14b-41d912d50a64/how-to-fix-error-the-microsoftaceoledb120-provider-is-not-registered-on-the-local-machine?forum=vstsdb
and also went through the "Add Data Source" wizard in the Project menu to have the connect string automatically built. Even with the automatically built connect string I can not connect to the .accdb file from within my WCF web service.
What's odd is if I use the Database Explorer in Visual Studio it has no problem connecting the my Access file. I inspected the connect string and tried to use it as well but still get the same error. Even stranger is that I have no problem connecting
to the Access DB in an ASP.NET project on the same PC. I am also able to connect to the Access file using a simple Windows Forms application. So I'm wondering if it has something to do with trying to connect to the Access file from a WCF web service
project.
What I'd like to know is if anyone has been able to get this to work in an environment as I described above as a 64bit WCF web service project? I tried to switch my project to 32bit but when I do I get a different error which reads:
System.BadImageFormatException: Could not load file or assembly 'file:
Almost to the point of trying to get this web service project done with SQL Express but would like to know if it can be done with MS Access 2013. Any information anyone can provide to help me get past this issue is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Have you installed the 64-bit Access driver on your machine? See
Data Source Names and 64-Bit Operating Systems for the differences in odbcad32. Call %SystemRoot%\system32\odbcad32.exe to check the drivers.
How do you host your service? Stand-alone or IIS or embedded to another application? Keep in mind that IIS7 runs it in its application pool which is defaullt 64bit. Thus the bad image exception, when compiling your service as 32bit.
When you need the Access database for your service to store informtation, then I would switch to SQL Server (Express) or XML files depending on your actual needs.
Also check whether your account under which your service is run has the necessary NTFS file permissions on the access file and the folder. This is getting even more complex when it's a remote folder.

Data Model damaged, Cannot connect to Access 2013 from within Excel 2013

Hello,
Recently I am not able to use PowerPivot for Excel 2013 and I cannot connect to my Access 2013 database tables from within Excel 2013. Whenever I try to click on a slicer in my Excel worksheet, it gives me the following error: "Excel was unable to load
a necessary component. This component might have been damaged or deleted. Reinstall the client software or data source driver software for your database."
I am using Microsoft Office Pro Plus 2013 on Windows 7, 64-bit version. I have tried reinstalling Microsoft SQL Compact Edition 2005 and reinstalling Office 2013. I have run out of ideas and am a loss what to do next ?
Can anyone help point in the right direction for a possible solution to this problem ???
Would appreciate all help.
Thank you.

Access 2013 Installation - Cannot continue unable to download a required file

We have working installations of office 2013 - Home and Business on two machines and we are trying to install Access 2013.
Both machines are running Windows 8.1
We have purchased 2 standalone physical media of Access 2013 to install on the machines.
We place the disks in the drive and get a small indicator that the disk are being read and then nothing.
We tried running \office\setup32.exe -v (we have 32bit office version already installed) and get message saying. "we're sorry, we can't continue because we weren't able to download a required file. "
We are connected to internet and i have tried disabling the firewall and antivirus but get nowhere. I do not wish to uninstall office unless i absolutely have to. Any suggestions please.

Are these machines on a domain?
It my be possible that your WSUS does not have the files available. If so add those files to the update library or remove the machines from the domain, install and then re-add to domain
*which is not recommended but is a possible solution if nothing else is available

Office 2013 updates fail on computers with Access 2013 installed

I have about 10 workstations with the combination of Windows 7 enterprise 32 bit, Access 2013 and Office 2007 installed.
SCCM offers up both Office 2007 and Office 2013 updates to these machines, but the Office 2013 updates, fail to install.
The same thing happens when I go to Microsoft updates and manually install the required Office 2013 updates.
I read that one of the updates required Office 2013 sp1.
But when I downloaded it, it won't install: KB2817430 "The expected version of this product was not found on the system."
This is the second month I've had the failures. I removed KB2878316 and KB2889927 from my deployments and packages to stop repeated install attempts.
But this month I've got a new on failing, KB2899493.
Is there a way around this problem?

Thanks, I couldn't really find anything but it looks as though this could be just the way it is.
from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2784668
When you start a version of Access on a computer that has multiple versions of Access installed, the Windows Installer may start, and
a message that states that the Windows Installer is preparing to install Access may be displayed before Access starts.
Every time that you start Access 2003, Access 2007, or Access 2010 after you use Access 2013, the Windows Installer repair operation registers
that version of Access. Similarly, the Windows Installer repair operation registers Access 2010 every time that you start it after you use an earlier version of Access. This does not occur when you start Access 2002, nor does it occur when you start the same
version of Access again.
Is this likely to also apply even when running App-V?

Office 365 pro plus 2013 update won't apply automatically

Hi
We have started to use office 365 pro plus 2013 click to run. The issue / problem we have is that the updates are installing but does not apply. The version of word,excel.. Is old
and i need to manually go to example word and account to apply the updates. I want the updates to automatically apply.
In the config file i have enabled updates. <Updates Enabled="TRUE" />. I have also enabled updates thru group policy and checked that the policy is applying.
In the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\15.0\ClickToRun\propertyBag i have the following keys:
updatesenabled = 1
UpdatesDiscoveryPeriodComplete = 1
updatesreadytoapply = 15.0.4535.1511,en-us
UpdatesDiscoveryPeriodStartTime = 13026393682226
updatesthrottlevalue = 313
version = 15.0.4535.1004
Does anyone have this problem and know how to make the updates apply automatically. I know that if there are office applications open it won’t apply or update but i have a test
computer with no office applications running in the process list and still it won’t apply the updates.

How to create a table with just its structure in Access 2013?

I have a front-end and back-end Access 2013 database. I want to send it to an MS Access development company. I cannot send it with any data because it has our members social security numbers and other personal identification data. In MS Access 2003
I could save a table with just its structure.
How do I save a table with just its structure? I want to learn how to do this.
Thanks for the help.
Robert

On the Create tab of the ribbon, click Table Design.
This opens the table design window, in which you can define fields and indexes without entering any data. Don't forget to save the design when you're done.
