Using access forms

how can i use ms access forms as a front end tool to get & input for oracle tables?

ms accessMS ACCESS can be configured to use ODBC to connect to Oracle
Oracle treats MS Access the same as every other client in that Oracle DB will process valid syntax SQL statements

  • Using Access forms after migrating data to Oracle

    Hi,
    One of the features provided by the original Migration Workbench appears to be the ability to modify a migrated Access database to use an ODBC connection to Oracle so that the original forms could still be used. I have just been through the process of migrating the demo Northwind database into Oracle using the SQL Developer Migration Workbench but this doesn't appear to be an option.
    I am missing something or is this feature not available using the migration tools in SQL Developer?
    And if it is missing what would be the easiest way to achieve this? From my limited exposure to Access converting the Northwind application manually appears to be rather painful.
    Many thanks,
    Vince

    Hi Vince,
    As you have correctly stated, the option to modify an MS Access database for the purpose of using the original forms is not available in Oracle SQL Developer Migration Workbench. As this option is no longer available, the easiest way to achieve the same result is to manually update your MDB file to reference the migrated Oracle tables. Once your MS Access Forms are referencing the link tables, you can continue using the forms as before. I would suggest doing the following:
    NOTE: These steps should only be carried out after you have migrated your tables from Access to Oracle using Oracle SQL Developer Migration Workbench. I would also recommend that you take a back-up of your MDB file before carrying out the following steps...just to be on the safe side!
    1. Create a new System DSM (using the ODBC Data Source Administrator dialog, via the Control Panel > Administrative Tools on your OS), using the connection details to access the newly migrated Oracle database schema. Test the connection, to ensure it's working correctly.
    2. Open your MDB file in database view - double-click the MDB file, holding down the Shift key.
    3. Remove the original Access tables.
    4. Using the Insert > Table menu item in MS Access, start the New Table wizard and create Link Tables to each of the migrated tables in your Oracle schema. NOTE: Rename the Link Table(s) so it matches the original Access table name. This will save you from having to edit each of the Forms, to change the Record Source it's based on. The form will still have a reference to the original table name, so by reusing the same name your form should just continue working as before. The only difference is that the data is being retrieved from the Oracle database now!
    If you have any questions regarding any of the above information, just respond to this thread & I'll get back to you.
    I hope this helps.

  • Adding data to multiple tables using one form in Access 2010?

    Hi All,
    I have a access database with two tables and I want to create a single form to enter data into that tables.
    How to adding data to multiple tables using one form in Access 2010?
    I don't have to much knowledge of access database?
    Please help me
    Thanks
    Balaji

    You really don't enter identical data into 2 tables.  You enter dat into one single table, and then you have an unique identifier that maps to another table (you have a unique relationship between two tables). 
    Maybe you need to read this.
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/access-help/database-design-basics-HA001224247.aspx
    Think about it this way...  What is you update data in 2 tables, and then the data in one of those tables changes, but the data in the other table does NOT change.  WHOOPS!!  Now, you've got a BIG problem.  For instance, you have a customer
    named Bill Gates.  In one Table you update Bill's address to 1835 73rd Ave NE, Medina, WA 98039 and in the other table you accidentally update Bill's address to 183 73rd Ave NE, Medina, WA 98039.  Now you have 2 addresses for Bill.  Why would
    you want that???  Which is right?  No one knows.  If you have one address, you just have to update one address and if there is a mistake, you just have to update one address, but you don't have to waste time trying to figure out which is right
    and which is wong...and then update the one that is wrong.
    Post back with specific questions.
    Knowledge is the only thing that I can give you, and still retain, and we are both better off for it.

  • Can't access adobe from my smart phone to use my form created in formscentral I receive an error message that says "unsupported browser". There is a link to download a supported browser but the link directs me to another page that says "browser no

    When I try to access adobe from my smart phone to use my form created in formscentral I receive an error message that says "unsupported browser". There is a link to download a supported browser but the link directs me to another page that says "browser not supported at this time". This happened to me while using my IPhone 5, a friend that uses an IPhone 6, and another friend that uses a Samsung Galaxy S5. I just need for my employees to be able to access, complete and submit work orders created in formscentral from their phones. I would like to use the data collection feature in formscentral but at this point any suggestions on how to accomplish this are welcomed. Thank you

    Further info - I changed my security settings to allow apps from anywhere, and again tried to install.  I again got an error message
    that the update failed to install, and to contact Customer Support.

  • Is there a time limit for how long a free form can be used/accessed?

    Is there a time limit for how long a free form that is created can be used/accessed, or is it soely dependent upon when the 50 respondent max has been reached?  I am creating a form now, that will likely be distributed in early January, and I want it to be accessible through the end of June, 2013.  (I am simply using the option to create a single form for free- not the 30-day trial). 

    There is no time limit. The limit is the 50 responses.

  • Want to use Adobe forms departmentally.  How many users per license?

    How many people can use Adobe Forms per license/how many computers can we download software to?

    Adobe FormsCentral is a web-based app so there is nothing to download - you access from the web browser.
    Each users who creates forms needs a license of FormsCentral. In a month or so you'll be able to by a team pack (5,10,25) at reduces prices for a larger group who wants to create forms.

  • How many times can I use a form?

    Hi Everyone,
    Can anyone explain what this means? (text below) If I make a form in LiveCycle Designer and then I extend it so that other users can fill it out...Does that mean that only 500 people can use the form?
    If so, then...I am dumbfounded and disappointed.
    What must be purchased in order to allow more than 500 people to use an extended form?
    Thanks All.
    "15.12.3. For any unique Extended Document, you may only either (a) Deploy such Extended Document to an unlimited number of unique recipients but shall not extract information from more than five hundred (500) unique instances of such Extended Document or any hardcopy representation of such Extended Document containing filled form fields; or (b) Deploy such extended Document to no more than five hundred (500) unique recipients without limits on the number of times you may extract information from such Extended Document returned to you filled-in by such Recipients. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, obtaining additional licenses to use Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Pro Extended shall no increase the foregoing limits (that is, the foregoing limits are the aggregate total limits regardless of how many additional licenses to use Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Pro Extended you may have obtained).

    There are two parts to your question, even though one is implicit.
    Question 1 (implicit): Can I have an unlimited number of people fill in and submit the data for a form?
    Answer 1: Yes.  Reader has always allowed an unlimited number of people fill in a form as part of a web transaction and submit the results.  And, there have always been an unlimited number of times that someone can store the form (with no data filled in) on local systems or media or print the form.
    Question 2: Then what is the 500 user limit referred to with the reader extensions talking about?
    Answer 2: Reader Extensions is a capability enabled by the LiveCycle Reader Extensions server, or Acrobat (in the limited cases you quote from the EULA) to let a user save a form on a local system with data filled into it.  You can read more about it on the product page; the number of forms or recipients are part of the terms of the server license. Acrobat Pro can reader-extend a subset of the capabilities of the server product (only local form data save, signatures and commenting; not pdf spawn pages, web services or ODBC data access) and it only allows the 500 users in the two cases in the EULA for form data save.
    To make this more clear, consider two cases... a form that is not reader-extended (RE) and one that is.
    Not RE: You can get a form from a website, fill it in, and then submit the data by HTTP or email. However, if you save the form on your local system, the form that is saved is the blank form without the data.
    RE:You can get a form from a website, fill it in, and then submit the data by HTTP or email. But also, the user can save a copy of his form with the data filled in for his archival purposes. They can also start filling out the form, save it locally, come back and work on the data later, save again, and then finally submit.  The submit can be done by the same HTTP or email methods as above or the user can even choose to send the entire form back and have the werver process extract the data. (If you choose to reader extend through Acrobat, this use case is subject to the EULA limitations).
    I hope that helps.

  • How can LabVIEW press a command button in access form?

    Situation: access database with a command button, who generate a code after pushing
    Task: LabVIEW open the access database, pressed the command button and read out the code
    Status:
    use activeX to open the access database - ready
    press the command button - open
    read out the code - open
    Problem: Is there a possibility that LabVIEW press automatically the command button in the access form?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    First off, you are confusing your terms. Access is not a database. It's an development environment for creating applications that use databases. By default, Access uses a DBMS called Jet that is built into Windows, but it can use others like SQL Server or even Oracle.
    Second, in terms of pushing the button, that is totally dependent upon what functionality Access' ActiveX interface chooses to expose to external applications.
    Third, what does the button actually do? The statement, "..generate a code.." is meaningless. Does it perform a query? Does it generate a report? Does it modify records?

  • Issue in OIM 11gR2Ps2 while provisioning using access policies

    Hi,
    we  are provisioning resources using access policies, we  are facing any issue while provisioning resource using two access policies. we are populating the main process form data using two access policies, according to  the access policy priority we are seeing the first access policy form data value in the user process form, but the second access policy value is not showing in the user process form, for example we are populating processform  fieldvalue1 using access policy1 and processform fieldvalue2 using access policy2.
    Thank you,

    Hi,
    we are facing issue in the following scenario
    we are provisioning a resource based on the user position through access policies, for example  a user  position "contractor" is satisfies two rules based on the rules he will get two roles, these two roles trigger two access policies, and two access policies giving same resource for example "AD", in AD main  process form there two lookups(lookup A,lookup B), we are giving looukp A value in acess policy1 and lookup B value in access ploicy2, when ever user gets AD resource through these roles, after provisioning when we see the user process form only lookup A value is there and lookup B is empty.But i want to get both lookup A,lookup B values, what i observed was based on the  priority access policy values are comming to user resource form, the next access policy form values are not reflecting the user process form.
    Thanks,

  • Using a form control (textbox) as an SQL Server parameter

    Hi
    i am trying to use a form textbox control to filter an SQL query but i do not know how to do this. In fairness, im from an Access background originally and can easily do it in Access lol.
    Is it better to connect to the SQL database using code and create an SQL string to get / set data? if so? how can i do that?
    or
    do i use a table adapter which is my current method but i do not know how to integrate a text control as a query parameter.
    for reference-
    Query = SQL Server View (Same as access Database Query)
    Thanks for any help

    Hi,
    Unless, you are writing dynamic queries, you might want to
    define your outerj SQL in MS Access and then issue a simple
    SELECT in Reports against the outerj MS Access query (to MS
    Access this query is just another pseudo table).

  • Maximum number of responses using distributed forms?

    What is the maximum number of responses allowed with distributed forms?

    That depends on how many people have access to the form. If you distribute it to 500 or fewer recipients, then you can collect and use data from any number of responses. If more than 500 recipients, you can use data form no more than 500 responses. By "distributed forms" I'm assuing you're using the Distribute Form feature of Acrobat, which Reader-enables the form in the process.
