Flash movie to enter data into access

I have a simple microsoft access database (table with a handful of fields).
I want to make a flash form that operators can use on mac and pc to enter information into the database.
I know little about databases and although I've worked as a designer with flash for years, i know little about the latest scripting too.
Is there a simple way to do this?
Thanks in advance for any comments

The answer is sort of.
Flash that is served up from a webserver cannot access a database directly with out some back end server that actually does the hand shaking.
There are a number of ways to do it though.
1. Create webservices to pass the data to and have the webservices access and save the data for you.
2. Use page scripting with .NET aspx pages or PHP pages deployed on your webserver to communicate to the database. You would use the loadvars or URLLoader in AS3 to post the variables to the page and then let the page process the data.
Those would be the simpler methods providing you have access to a PHP or .NET solution to act as your backend.

  • Why would entering data into a basic form be so slow?

    We have a form created in Acrobat 8.0 that has about 30 fields. They are only fields to be filled in and then the form is printed.
    Until we updated Adobe Reader to version 9.1.1, we had no issues entering data into the form. With versions 9.1.1 and above, data entry gets slower and slower as you move down the form.
    Entering data into the first part of the form is rapid. When entering data into the middle part of the form, you can type characters and then watch as the characters slowly appear. When you get to the end of the form. the characters you type can take about 5 seconds each befor they appear.
    Can't figure out why version 9.1.1 and higher cause data entry to get progressively slower as you move down the form.

    Hi,
    I realize that you mentioned that it worked in 9.1, so perhaps the problem is not related to RDP performance.  However, you still might want to have a look at Ericom Blaze, a software product that accelerates and compresses standard Microsoft RDP. Blaze accelerates RDP performance by as much as 10-25 times, and helps deliver higher frame rates and reduce screen freezes and choppiness.
    You can read more about Blaze at:

  • I have manually inputted data into a blank spreadsheet and would like to use a form to enter data into that sheet !!! How do I do that please

    I have manually inputted data into a blank spreadsheet and would like to use a form to enter data into that sheet !!! How do I do that please

    Leigh,
    After creating your table, Tap the Tab marked "+" and select "Form" - you will be asked which table to use. (You should get into the habit of naming your tables - if the table name isn't visible, select the table and tap the Styles (Brush) Menu > Table > Turn ON table Name, then double tap on the Table to edit it.)
    Select the table you wish to to fill with a form and you will see a new form based on the header data.
    The form will allow you to add one row at a time and when you get to the last row, there is an option at the bottom of the form to add a new row using the "+" button. At the top of the form is the row header which you can rename by double tapping.
    You can also rename the form on the Tab by double tapping on the name.
    Try it out.

  • Numeric Keypad does not enter data into Excel

    Is there a way to turn on/off the numeric keypad for the imac intel based apple computer when using Microsoft Excel?
    I want to enter numeric data into the cells of a spreadsheet in the Excel program, but I can not figure out how to get the numeric keypad to work to do this. It will only work as a directional keypad, moving the active cell left or right, or shoot to the end of the spreadsheet. Consequently I forced to use the use the row of numbers above the keyboard (which is also the row of numbers below the function keys) to enter data.
    Strangely, the numeric keypad will enter data with other programs, such as Word or when entering data into an online page.
    I have searched Apple help without success.

    Make sure that NumLock has not been engaged. To toggle that on and off, press Shift-Clear ("Clear" is the key immediately above the 7 on the keypad).

  • Cannot enter data into table with column named DATE

    I have a table as follows:
    CREATE TABLE PACKINGLINE (
    SNO VARCHAR2(13),
    "DATE" DATE DEFAULT SYSDATE,
    PRDORDNO VARCHAR2(12),
    NOW DATE DEFAULT SYSDATE,
    CONSTRAINT PACKINGLINE_PK PRIMARY KEY ("SNO", "DATE"));
    Note the "cleaverly" named DATE and NOW columns (yes, that is the name of the column... our company was bessed with a very clear SQL server DBA in the past)
    This SQL statement works:
    INSERT INTO PACKINGLINE (SNO, PRDORDNO) VALUES ('1000808972', '100080897');
    However when I try use SQL Developer as follows I cannot enter data:
    1. Open SQL Developer
    2. Click on "Tables" then on my table named PACKINGLINE
    3. Click the "Data" tab
    4. Click the [+] "Insert Row" Icon
    5. Enter the same data as above
    6. Click Commit
    7. The following error is shown in the log window and I cannot commit the data change.

  • Two fields, two scripts. User can enter data into field 1 or 2

    Hi all,
    New here, and to acrobat forms, so please bear with me!
    What I'm trying to achieve is a form that calculates total invoice value, based on a total number of hours worked, and a rate. The user fills in the total hours, but then the problem is that some people know their fixed rate, and others have a changing rate. Those with a changing rate simply know the amount they are invoicing for. What I'd like, is a way for the TotalInvoice value to be calculated by Rate*TotalHours when the user enters a value into the Rate field... OR ... for Rate to be calculated by TotalInvoice/TotalHours when the user enters a value into the TotalInvoice field.
    I can make it go one way or the other (so the script is only in TotalInvoice field or the Rate field), but I can't manage to get it to go both ways. Is this possible?
    To summarise: User can enter manually into Field1 and value of Field2 is calculated, or user can enter manually into Field2 and Field1 is calculated.
    Thanks!

    What you propose can be difficult, becuase you're describing a circular reference between the two fields. When the 1st value changes, you want the 2nd value to be calculated based on the 1st value. But when the 2nd value changes, you want the 1st value to be calculated based on the 2nd, ad infinitum. There are ways to short-circuit the loop, but it depends on whether you need to do the calculation only when there is manual entry, or whether you need it to work when either field value changes programmatically or by importing form data.
    Sometimes it's just easier to have the user press a button to calculate and set the other field value.

  • Entering Data into AppleTV

    It is unbelievably frustrating to enter Data ( Passwords, network settings) into AppleTv. Has anyone found a way around this? I cannot understand why data cannot be entered like any other client on a network...make it hardwired only...(that should solve security issues).
    I have now spent about 5 hours trying to figure out what is going on and reentering data...very frustrating!!!

    Yes...that is what I thought until I had to change some settings. With static IP addresses and WPA2 security ( I try to take Apple at it's word that they are security conscious) there should be a better way of inputting data like this...besides...if it is easier to change it encourages users to make security a concern and change things every now and again...is this not what the gurus of the net suggest in any case? I will not stop loving Apple...but every now and again they have just not thought things through.

  • Entering data into Reports-WebDB2.2

    Hi,
    I am trying to enter html into the add text section ("Help Text")of the report. However, the information that i am entering is defaulting to the centre when it is being displayed. i have tried adding html tags <Align> to align the data to the left side of the page., However it does not seem to be recognising it.
    Any advice?
    Thank you

    Let's make this simple:
    a) Your book seems to assume you're doing development remotely.
    b) You are not doing development remotely.
    c) Therefore, you shouldn't follow every step listed in your book (i.e. ignore the stuff about Telnet).
    Assuming you installed mySQL in the standard location, you can use this batch file to start mySQL on your machine:
    @echo on
    cd c:\mysql\bin
    mysqld
    @echo off
    cls
    Use this batch file to shut down mySQL:
    @echo on
    cd c:\mysql\bin
    mysqladmin shutdown
    @echo off
    cls
    You can play around without a login or password in development. For a production environment, you're going to need to set up users and grant permissions.
    Spend some time reading the mySQL documentation.

  • Allow agent to enter data into agent desktop?

    Hi Guys,
    wondering  if anyone can comment on this.  our customer is looking for a way to enter data /code into CAD as the call arrives based on teh user issue.
    for example, lets say we define a code in script or workflow/enterprise data some how (not sure if this can be done) a code 60 for users who has 'internet issues'.  so as soon as teh agent mention that issue we can catagorize this call into code 60. so agent would choose (from drop down menu in cad from the available such codes) or manually type in the code?
    then Historical reporting can be used to pull all the calls with those codes associated.
    is it possible? pls let me know.
    vijay

    wrap up code is one option..also another option is to include it in the enterprise data as it shown here in this youtube video.

  • Entering numbers into Access

    I am using an update statement to enter a number into an
    access databse where the field is set as an interger format. The

    When this is processed I revieve the following error:
    ODBC Error Code = 37000 (Syntax error or access violation)
    [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error in
    UPDATE statement.
    SQL = "UPDATE tbl_images SET mnname = 'Whitney Looking',

    I assume this is caused by the database recieving the number

    Could someone please let me know how I need to format the

    Dan's point about using a column named "order" is most likely
    the culprit. Words like SELECT, WHERE and ORDER are reserved words
    in SQL and should be avoided as names for database fields. Try
    changing the name of your database field and running the query
    again.
    Also, I noticed the fields "approved" and "makeimagelive"
    seemed to also contain bit or integer values. Try using the same
    formatting with those fields as you did with the order field.
    In fact, you can replace all of your query values with
    <cfqueryparam> and let coldfusion decide which ones will
    received surrounding quotes based on the cfsqltype.
