access thread: Bypass FTP Software


Message #1 by George Oro <georgeoro@y...> on Mon, 21 Jan 2002 00:42:05 -0800 (PST)
Hi Guys,



I have one Access 2000 Membership Database and every

time there's some update or changes I need to ftp to

our server to update the web site db that makes me

crazy. The update and changes is very often, is there

any way to incorporate on Save button that, if Record

is New or Edited run FTP using code instead of opening

WS_FTP Pro.exe and upload.



Please help...



Cheers,



George

> Hi Guys,

George 

The first challenge is to get permission to the folder and Access database 

file on the web server. ( See the Web Server's Administrator)



Next would be to get connected to that Web Server via a Network Protocol, 

ie Netbeui, TCP/IP. 

Protocols like FTP and HTTP are transfer protocols and Access  use the 

network's protocols address tabels in other databases.



Once you have the right and means to establish a connection, You can link 

the Table(s) in the Access Database on the Web Server to the your code 

database (You have split the Code:Queries, Forms, Reports, Macros and 

Modules from the Data:Tables haven't you)



Once you have a link you can code the Form to update the linked table.

You ought to be using an unbound form and optimistic locking for this.

Refer to Access Developer Handbook (97 or 2000)



Hope this makes it a bit clearer



Regards 



Greg Frazer
