Microsoft Access Open Session Prompt

We currently use Crystal Reports 6.0 32-bit with an Access 2.0 database. When I click on the refresh button or Verify Database within Crystal, I get the Microsoft Access Open Session error that prompts for a user ID and password. I also get this error even when I access the sample reports that came with Crystal Reports. I have tried this with Crystal Reports 6.0 and 7.0 (32 bit). Any one know what the problem could be?

Hi
It might be possible that some of the dll files have got corrupted. You can search if you have duplicate dll files of Crystal reports on the machine.
Try repairing the software from Add/Remove programs. After installation restart the application.
If that doesn't help go for a uninstall of the software and reinstall.

  • How do I open a pdf stored in a Microsoft Access database using Visual Basic studios 2012

    Currently I am unable to find a valid method of being able to open a pdf stored in a Microsoft Access database using Visual Basic studios 2012. I've tried displaying the entire database on a form, but when I do this all the other columns show up with
    the correct data besides the one containing the pdf's, it just displays <binary data> in each row down the column. I also tried another method with which you use the database as a dataset and can drag and drop the rows and columns into the form, which
    again works for all the other columns besides the one containing the pdf's but this time I'm unable to interact with the column  at all. 
    Not too sure if this is in the correct place, but any answers or help would be appreciated. Cheers.

    Alex,
    This forum is dedicated to Project and Project Server. You might get better response, if you post to a Visual Basic forum. Here are couple I could find.

  • The Microsoft Access database engine cannot open or write to the file in Report Builder 3.0

    I am trying to build a report in Report Builder 3.0.  I created the Data Source to point to my Excel file and the Data Set.  I drag a couple of fields on to the canvas and then choose Run.  I get the error:  "The Microsoft Access
    database engine cannot open or write to the file.  It is already opened exclusively by another user".  I am using the Excel driver.  Why am I getting this message?  How can I fix this?

    No, now I am getting the error message again.  It is quite long:

    The problem is, if I open SQL management studio (as domain admin with UAC elevated permissions) on my File server or any other computer, when trying to browse my linked server i got error:

    NTFS must be fine since it works from same server using same accounts.
    As I understand, adding my access file to Access trusted location could be a problem. I have tried now to add my access database file location to trusted locations for user which is my SQL service user (Windows Service - AD managed service account MYDOMAIN\SQL1$)
    and my test user which I use to connect to sql server as a client from sql management studio. (Account is Domain Admins and have full permissions on SQL server also)
    I have added this .reg:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Access\Security]
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Access\Security\Trusted Documents]

    "Description"="My file server"
    "AllowSubFolders"=dword:00000001
    "Path"="\\\\myfileserver.mydomain.com\\files\\"
    I have done this for SQL service account user and my personal test account as I said. I have tried to logoff and restart sql service and all servers also.
    The same problem still persists.
    Anyway, thank you for giving me a hint.

  • Launching Microsoft Access from Internet Explorer to view a downloaded MDB file opens the wrong file (not a problem if I use Firefox)

    When clicking on a link (in Internet Explorer 9) to download an Access MDB file and then choosing to open the file directly in Microsoft Access (2007) instead of saving it, the file is copied to Temporary Internet Files but Microsoft Access tries to open
    a different file and displays an (Unrecognized database format) error.
    When I click on the option to open the file, the MDB file is copied to Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5 but instead of that file, Access tries to open a different (incorrect) file located in Temporary Internet Files\Content.MSO (e.g. in the above error
    message, NativeView.do is an XML file containing an error message).
    I don't see this problem with Word, Excel or PowerPoint files. When opening a Word file (without saving) the Word file is copied to Content.IE5 but an identical .tmp file is created in Content.MSO which when opened in Microsoft Word displayed the required file
    correctly. The same happens for Excel files. PowerPoint appears to be handled a little differently (no .tmp file created in Content.MSO but the required file is still copied to Content.IE5) but the PPT file is still opened correctly in Microsoft PowerPoint.
    I think the Content-Type "application/msaccess" is fine because Internet Explorer does launch Microsoft Access. It just tries to open the wrong file (or so I think). However, it looks like the file type is not being determined. Here is what I noticed
    when trying to open different Microsoft Office files using Internet Explorer:
    The last one is the MDB file. As you can see, only for this type of file, the "Type" (Microsoft Office Access 2007?) is not displayed in this Open/Save dialog box.
    On Firefox, I don't see this problem. When I tried clicking on the link to the MDB file in Firefox, Microsoft Access was launched and the file was opened correctly. Is there something I can do so the MDB file is opened properly using IE? I can add/change headers
    in the HTTP response that writes this file to the output stream (on disk) if that helps.
    Thanks for your time!

    Sounds like a problem symptom to be discussed in either an IE forum or an Access forum, not here.  How did you come to post here?  ForumsRedesign.  That might be an on-topic issue for this forum.  <eg>
    Can you find your way to either of those other forums easily from here?  Another on-topic question for here I think.   ; )

  • Concurrent users unable to open a shared Microsoft Access MDB database

    I have a share on a Cisco NSS2000, the NSS is in Workgroup mode (Firmware 1.13).
    Every user have read/write rights on this share.
    When I try to open an access MDB database from this share it happens that only a single user at time can open the database.
    The second user that try to open the database get a "Cannot lock file" error message.
    So, when a user has the Access DB opened, no-one other can open (or connect to) the same DB.
    It's impossible to open the DB using the access IDE ("Cannot lock file" error message).
    It's impossible to make multiple connection to the DB using OleDB ("Cannot lock file" error message).
    I've tried give full access to the mdb file.
    I've tried give full access to the mdb folder.
    I've even tried to give full access to the temporary LDB file.
    I always get the same error message.
    Is there a workaround?
    Thanks, Max

    I've finally been able to update the firmware to the latest 1.16.
    Now everything works fine, problem solved! :)
    Thanks,

  • How can I open encrypted Microsoft access files on a mac?

    How can I open an encryted Microsoft access file on an iMac?

    As Office for Mac doesn't include Access, I'm not at all sure you can.
    You could try Open Office, NeoOffice or Libre Office (all free, open source) and see if their database applications can do it.

  • I can't run visa interactive control window. ERROR MESSAGE: "Unable to open session "ASrl::INSTR" Status name VI_ERROR-RSRC BUSY Visa cannot curently access this resource.

    Thanks for answer.
    Gita

    The port is open by another resource. You note that you should also get an error if you try to access the port in hyperterminal. Try rebooting your computer and the first thing you try is opening a VISA session with Visa Interactive control(VISAIC).
    If that fails, then you have a driver accessing your ports.
    If it works then it was just two applications that were trying to access your port (LabVIEW and VISAIC are seperate apps even thought they both may be using VISA.)
    Closing VISA sessions:
    LabVIEW will only *automatically* close VISA sessions if you have this option set: Tools>>options>>Automatically close VISA sessions.
    Otherwise you need to explicitly call a Visa close on the resource.

    Hi Diovizor,
    Make sure that you do not use [http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Clear%20Recent%20History Clear Recent History] to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox.
    Also please make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) Private Browsing mode.
    You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Preferences > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
    To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Preferences > Privacy > History: Firefox will: Use custome settings for history. Uncheck "Always use permanent Private Browsing mode"
    Hope that helps!

  • Open a Microsoft Access file using LV

    Hi, 
        When my VI finishes executing I would like it to Open up a Microsoft Access file and delete an Excel Table.  I have gotten it to delete the Excel Table, however, it will not open the Access file.  I have tried using Open File and I have tried open/create/replace, but they are not working.  I am almost positive I am putting the directory and file extentsion right as well.  I am using LV 6.1.  
    Thanks 

    I have recently added data-basing using labview and access.  I am using labview 7.0 and the DB toolkit.  I have no problem connecting to access using the jet 4.0 engine, where I can read modify and edit access data.  What are you trying to delete? a table, remove entries or delete the entire file itself.  There are two ways to connect to access, using an activeX control or through ODBC.  I have never used activeX for access but have used it for excel, this was not too difficult but there is a lot of methods and properties to wade through to get things working.  I might be able to help you, but will need a little more info on what you need to do with access.  Using the DB toolkit and ODBC, you will not need access on the machine to use the database, which is a nice option if you plan on distributing the application.  I am a DB novice but have been learning fast, I think Mike Porter knows alot about labview and database connectivity, hopefuly he will help out here.

  • How do I open a Crystal Report from Microsoft Access?

    I'm looking for step-by-step instructions on how to launch a Crystal Report from a Microsoft Access application (for a dummy like me).
    My Crystal Report uses a connection to the Access database as the data.
    I have Microsoft Access 2002 with Microsoft Visual Basic 6.5.
    I have Crystal Reports 2008 CR Developer 12.
    I'll need to know where to find the Visual Basic code references, and/or ActiveX Controls, if applicable.
    Thanks

    I concur with Don. Just a bit of help - a sample VBA app is here;
    https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006013432008E/rdc_vba.exe
    But as Don mentioned, you will have to downgrade to CR XI r2 (or lower) to implement the above solution.

  • RDS 2012 External access for Session Hosts over different port to default 443

    Hello there
    I am having problems solving this problem as you may see on other posts, so I am going to try again.
    I have two Server 2012 machines for RDS. Server 1 one with all roles (Gateway, Broker, Session host etc.) and second machine, Server 2 as a session host only. I am running RDWeb Apps, with CA certificate installed and
    everything works fine internally.
    Due to limitations on the router I had to change the default SSL port on the gateway (Server 1) to 4043. I have this and 3391 for UDP open to Server 1 from the router.
    Working externally, I can login to the RDS site and open apps form Server 1, but when I try to open an app installed on Server 2, I get a certificate error.  The error is:
    “Your computer can’t connect to the remote computer because the Remote Desktop Gateway server address
    and the certificate subject name do not match. Contact your network administrator for assistance". 
    The certificate address the error points to is referring to is an SBS 2011 cert for RWW and email. Experimenting, if I use 443 on the Server 1
    gateway instead of 4043 and change the router accordingly, it then works. I can open apps form both session hosts externally . But not if is set to 4043. 
    For the record Server 2 session host also gives this error:
    Event ID: 1280 Warning Microsoft Windows TerminalServcies-session broker client 
    Remote Desktop Services failed to join the Connection Broker on server sever-vm1.local.
    Error: Current async message was dropped by async dispatcher, because there is a new message which will override the current one.
    Because everything works fine using default 443, I figure this is a communication or firewall issue between the gateway and the session host on Server 2.  
    Can anyone help here? 
    Many Thanks 
    MIS5000

    Hi,
    Thanks for your comment.
    Have you check the connection on your second server?
    Can you ping the server 2 from server 1?
    As from the event ID 1280 it seems there is some network connectivity to RDCB server. Also please “Add the RD Session Host server to the Session Broker Computers group” & RDWeb server's computer account needs to be a member of the local TS Web Access Computers
    group on your RDSH server.  You can get the detailed information from this article.
    In addition, do you have certificate purchased and install from trusted root authority. There is some requirement to use certificate for RDS environment, please consider following points.
    1. The certificate is installed into computer’s “Personal” certificate store. 
    2. The certificate has a corresponding private key. 
    3. The "Enhanced Key Usage" extension has a value of either "Server Authentication" or "Remote Desktop Authentication" (1.3.6.1.4.1.311.54.1.2). Certificates with no "Enhanced Key Usage" extension can be used as well. 
    You can get more details regarding certificatehere.
    Hope it helps!

  • Open Session: unexpected error

    Hi everybody,
    I'm using BO XI R3.0 and since couple of last days I'm having problem with opening Universe Designer. The message I'm getting is "Open session: unexpected error". This happens after I provide user name and password for the access to the system.
    Does anyone know the solution to the problem beside uninstalling Client tools etc. (I already did that) because the same happens when I want to open Desktop Intelligence, Translation Manager, etc.
