Access doesn't close properly. A remaining background process can only be terminated in task manager
Since yesterday I noticed that in all my Access databases there is a problem when I close them. When I close a database, it leaves a background process that can only be terminated in Task Manager. Without this, it is not possible to (re)open databases! I have already checked some possible causes. It also concerns databases that I have not changed at all in recent months and that worked fine until this week. Therefore, I have to assume that it is a bug in an automatic update! It seems that it has to do with a malfunction in the deallocation of allocated memory in VBA source code. Did anyone experience the same problem? Are there already fixes or solutions available?SolvedFlorian1290Feb 02, 2022Copper Contributor89KViews8likes189CommentsAccess freezes when I copy a record
Windows 11 Office 365 Access Suddenly, when I copied a record in the database Access froze as if it didn't have enough memory. I tried compact and repair, repairing Office, uninstalling and reinstalling Office 365, exporting the database into CSV and importing back as text into a new table in a clean database, after that didn't work, I reduced the number of entries by 80% and imported as text into a fresh table. It still froze as soon as I control-C for 45 to 50 seconds each time. A completely different Access database is experiencing a shorter delay after each control-C Has anyone encountered this error or know a reputable contractor who specializes in such file specific issues?SolvedArt_MeniusNov 18, 2022Brass Contributor46KViews5likes112CommentsMoving Away from MS Access
The organization I work for is wanting to move away from Microsoft Access databases where possible, and we have started exploring what tools our current Access databases could be moved to. Is there a standard for what works best (Powerapps, Sharepoint, etc)? What have you found to be a good resource for guidance on this topic? Thanks!Brian_HayesFeb 25, 2020Brass Contributor122KViews2likes81CommentsProblem with combobox form controls
I'm using exactly the same accdb in two computers. One is Win10 the other has been updated (fresh install) to Win11. In the win10 computer, form's Combobox controls are working as they should, narrowing and presenting possible values as you type in it. But in Win11 most of the times that doesn't work and I type without getting any hint from the list. If I expand down the Combobox, the list is filled, so it is not a problem with the control source, and results matching what is already write are there. This is a really big problem and make very, very difficult to work, so I ask you please to check the problem as soon as possible.SolvedJF_RuizOct 16, 2022Brass Contributor10KViews1like50CommentsOffice update 2405 17628.20110 causes slowness in loading forms in MS Access
We experience issues with the May 30 release of Office 365, from version 2405 17628.20110 We experience issues with Microsoft Access. The issue that we experience is that loading and closing of forms takes longer and longer when you are using the application. Basiccally what we see is that the drawing of the form takes longer each time a form is opened. We have written a recursive function to illustrate this: When we execute the function, this are the results: ….. ….. …. In above overview you can see that when we start the access application the loading of the form takes approx. 0,3s, and the closing of the form takes 0,05s After 100 opens the timings are 0,5 and 0,3s After 200 opens the timings are 1,4s and 1s After almost 300 opens the timings are 2+s and 1,8s When we execute this same recursive function in an older version of Microsoft access the timings are stable. We have tested this with several forms. And we see this with all forms. The only difference is the loading speed – which depends on the number of objects that are drawn on the form. The more objects the slower and the higher the increase in becoming slower. Anyone knows if this bug is already reported / fixed by Microsoft?rkesselsJun 05, 2024Brass Contributor5KViews0likes44CommentsPlease help!!! Run-time error 3828 Cannot reference a table with a multi-valued field ...
I have a form that passes a string to a query. From the form, I want to convert the query results to a csv file. I have checked several posts on this subject and they don't seem to have any problems using the DoCmd statement...I am posting my code below.

Access 365. My status bar is half height. Record numbers etc. shows only half and are hard to read. Happened a few years back, but don't remember what the fix is. I'm a extremely low level Access user. But I've been using Word since it was on one 360 floppy. so Microsoft office has been my program forever. I updated from 2003 to 365. (May I say ...yuck?) Here's a screenshot. Tried changing screen resolutions, font sizes, and have spent 2 hrs browsing for an answer. Anyhow, hope someone can tell me the fix. I'll give an email as I might not remember to get back to this page. pdxaz714@gmail.com thanks for any helpSolvedSugginsAug 04, 2021Copper Contributor12KViews0likes41CommentsAccess to Access
I am a single user using OneDrive and 365. All of a sudden Access says I can't save edits because there is another user. There isn't. Occasionally the file locking file can be seen in Explorer but I can't delete it as "it is no longer in this location". Any thoughts?Ian_Johnston_1948Mar 04, 2024Brass Contributor4.3KViews0likes39CommentsMigrating Access back end to the cloud
Hi. I am an amateur. Using Access 365, I have created a small Access database for a local charity and I would like it be usable by 3 or 4 people at once and so I think I need to get the back end (the tables) into the cloud. I have tried to set it up with Azure SQL, SQL Server and I've tried to use SQL Express as a stepping stone. But, in every case, the technology is impenetrable. I have downloaded endless software packages that I think the guys in India have recommended (although the language barrier is very difficult) so that I have installed MS Data migration assistant, MS SQL Server Express, MS SQL Server Migration Assistant for Access, MS SQL Server Tools 2018 and SQL Server Configuration Manager. Can anyone direct me to a step-by-step procedure, suitable for dummies, that can help me achieve this?

Hello, We have a problem with the new MsJet40.dll version 4.0.9801.25 released with the Windows 10 KB4566782 Update All "replicated' MDB database can't be open anymore with an error message : " Impossible d'ouvrir la base de données 'MSysAccessObjects'. Ce n'est peut-être pas une base de données que votre application reconnaît, ou le fichier est peut être endommagé " (Sorry In french) When I revert to msjet40.dll version 4.0.9801.20 the database can be openned again I hope you can repair this problem. We are still using msaccess 2000, but I think this is a problem with all version using Jet engine Regards, DanDan2000Aug 13, 2020Copper Contributor15KViews1like38Comments
