Using Access to store OLE objects like Excel , Word docs and retrieve them

Hi folks,
I need a solution for this problem guys.
The logic is like this : A portable exe file and a database. Database contains files stored ( embedded ) in it like Excel , Word , notepad etc.
On running the exe file and giving necessary prompts or combo entries, it should display all files related to the selection and On clicking the link the document should open itself.
Why I use Access : Most of the PC contains MS Office. Otherwise I have to use a lightweight protable database.
Also it should be able to store files into it. As far as I know , Access can store excel and images etc. Is there any other protable db capable of storing excel and word docs.
After storing how do I retrieve the file. I have read about displaying images. What about excel files...

Portable as in the sense every one can cary the file and the MS access database and can access data whenever they want . They can carry it in their flash drive / USB drive. Only the data base would get updated with the data. So in effect , One could access the updated documents by the means of a query.
This should work in Windows environment

    I don't believe it will open a Word document, but Writepad allows for handwritten conversion of notes to text and then to email. Might help you some of the way...

    Can we assume that your 1080p30 is an AVCHD.mp4 file or other?
    You manually or the project automatically should set the project preset to
    NTSC
    DSLR
    1080p
    DSLR 1080p30 @29.97
    (If your frame rate is really 30 instead of 29.97, then go with DSLR 1080p30 instead of DLSR 1080p30 @29.97)
    See the following link for setting the project preset manually
    http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/04/pe11-accuracy-of-automatic-project.html
    For your export
    Publish+Share
    Computer
    AVCHD
    with Presets = MP4 - H.264 1920 x 1080p30
    Please let us know if you have further questions on this or need clarification on anything written.

  • ITunes store shows "accessing iTunes store..." for few seconds and after that its blank with an apple logo inside the status bar.

    Hi,
        I have recently installed iTunes latest version (10.5.1.42) on Win XP SP3.
    The problem is, when accessing iTunes, It connects to the internet, I can sign in (It shows my username in sign in bar), But nothing is shown in the iTunes store window in iTunes. It shows "accessing iTunes store..." for few seconds and after that its blank with an apple logo inside the status bar.
    ANU SUGGESSION???

    Sorry, no. The screen image you see is specifically saying you need to connect it to a computer. You could take it to an Apple retailer for help.

    It's not a good idea to use a network disk for both Time Machine backups and other things.  By design Time Machine will eventually consume all the space on its output disk, which will then cause problem for your other files.  I'd store those other files on an external disk connected to the Time Capsule.  The problem with that is that Time Machine will only back up files that are local to your Mac.  That means that you'll only have one copy of the files on or attached to your Time Capsule.
    By the way, you've been misled by poor field labeling on this forum into typing a large part of your message into the field intended for the subject.  In the future just type a short summary of your post into that field and type the whole message into the field below that.

  • Is it possible to have a PDF form flow to a second page IF the user needs to type in a lot of information? ( Like a Word Doc would)

    Is it possible to have a PDF form flow to a second page IF the user needs to type in a lot of information? ( Like a Word Doc would)
    An automated second page.

    There are two approaches.
    If you wish to use AcroForm technology, then you would need to write a bunch of JavaScript to enable this.  It has been done, but it’s not trivial.
    If you wish to use XFA technology, then it can be setup to happen automatically.
    Be aware that in both cases, even though both technologies are part of the PDF standard, that the forms will only be usable in this manner in Adobe’s viewers as many others don’t support JavaScript or XFA.

  • I have word docs and power points in Arabic which I should like to read on my Mac. Can anyone offer a view as to how I can do this.?

    I have much training material previously prepared on my former Microsoft pc. Some of the word docs and power points are in arabic on a memory stick now. However my Mac cannot read the arabic at all. Has anyone hd this problem and found a solution?

    Do you see disconnected Arabic or nonsense?  If nonsense, it could be an encoding problem.  Use the camera icon here to  post screenshot of what you are seeing.
    It is important to understand that MS Word for Mac has never supported connected Arabic.  You have to use some other app, like TextEdit or LibreOffice, and sometimes select the text and change the font to one of those provided by Apple, like Geeza Pro.

  • Excel document is automatically converting to a word doc and won't open

    I Installed Microsoft Excel and Word 2007 onto my laptop. Since the, whenever I create an excel document and save the same, it saves as a Word doc and when trying to open the doc, an error message comes up. Why is the Excel doc automatically saving as a Word doc? How to correct this issue?

    Hi judyf73891847,
    I don't think you're doing anything wrong. I'm not surprised that ExportPDF is having a hard time converting handwriting. One option is to disable OCR as described in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (O... | Adobe Community. Then, ExportPDF won't try to convert those elements into editable text. The only drawback to that is that you won't be able to edit those items when you open the converted document in Word.

  • Copying word.doc and excell spreadsheets

    I just bought a new Curve 8330.
    Can I copy word.docs and excell spreadsheets to my Blackberry?
    If so, how?
    Thank you for any help you may give me.
    Gordon

    Yes, you can.
    1. You can email the files to yourself and from the BlackBerry device, download to your Media Card.
    2. You can set the Media Card to Mass Storage Support, and move the documents from your PC to the BlackBerry while connected to the PC via the USB cable.
    See this:  http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/How_do_I_add_media_files_to_my_microSD_card%3F
    Now, if you have OS 5.0 on your device, (Look at Options > About, third line down beginning with a "v.4.xxx") you will have DocumentsToGo and WordToGo and SheetsToGo installed on your device (look in the Applications folder).

  • Access 2003 Embedded OLE Object + Acrobat Reader 9.2 error on close?

    This seems to be a known problem without a known solution.
    We have a SQL database backend and an Access 2003 frontend. The Access client displays scanned PDF documents via an embedded OLE Object field.
    Up until recently, we had been using Acrobat Reader 6.0 as the default viewer, but we switched up to 9.2 so that our staff could read external PDFs with security/encryption,etc. When an embedded PDF is viewed now through the Access client, an error is thrown when Acrobat Reader is closed, indicating that an OLE server was not registered, or needed to be re-installed. This did not happen with the Acrobat 6.0 client.
    Is there any automatic behind-the-scenes file updates being performed when Acrobat Reader 9.2 shuts down? It seems like some information is trying to be written (maybe a timestamp?) and is kicking back an error when it can't update the target file.
    Is there a workaround for this? I need the ability to read secured PDFs, but I also don't want my users having to needlessly deal with persistent error messages.

    Disable the protection mode in the preferences of Adobe Reader.

    Again, what product? And from the Apple Store, or the iTunes Store? I presume you mean the iTunes Store since you mention a "Purchased" list, but I'm not sure.
    Since you seem to have problems in English, you might want to try posting your issue - a complete description of the issue, please - in your native language. That might be easier for all concerned.
