Reverse Engineer Access Macro From .NET

Jun 7, 2010

A co-worker has inherited a Microsoft Access macro that executes a series of SQL operations against a Sybase database by calling OpenQuery on a bunch of action queries, which use linked tables over ODBC. I would like to help him convert it to an SQL script that we can execute directly against the database. And since we have quite a few macros like this, I'd like to come up with a conversion tool.

I expected to be able to access the details of the macro using COM interop. So far I haven't been able to find a way to get to those details. [Code]. I don't think any of the members of AccessObject provide the information I need. But I can't find anything else that even mentions macros. Anybody ever done anything like this? Is there some DoCmd or SysCmd operation that will work here?

Calling Access Macro From .NET?

Mar 20, 2011

I call an Access macro from vb.net like so: Acc.DoCmd.RunMacro("Macro1")

The Macro in Access has many OpenQuerys and Msgbox with a message saying "data done" at the end.

When I execute the macro from vb.net, it shows the data done message and then done. However, when I analyse the table's to see if data has been appended, it hasen't.When I run the same macro from within Access, it works fine. It does show many messages like "You are about to run an append query that will modify data in your query" and I hit yes and does take slightly longer, but it does do it. In VB.NET, the only message I get is the final messagebox.

Good Program Book For Hardware Test Engineer?

Nov 3, 2009

I am a EE graduate from about a year and a half ago working in the semiconductor industry as a hardware/test engineer. I wan't to learn VB to do lab level data test and acquisition. I am learning this in my free time at work and home, and I would be using VB to talk with different electronic equipment through GBIP to source, measure, and record data. Anyone have any good ideas of a good book for such applications?? I know there are a ton of books and courses out there, but 99.9% of that information is not going to be needed for my industry application. I also took a few C classes in college, and I have some experience with labview so I am not a total noob to programming. So if anyone has a good book, or refferences that would be really appreciated.Also what version of VB would you recomend me learning?

Disable Macro And Start-Up Values While Opening MS Access DB

Mar 26, 2009

"How to avoid Linked Table manager message while opening the Access DB."I have asked how to disable Macro (programmatically vb.net) while opening the MSAccess DB and I got some good reference and code samples to do so. But unfortunately I could not able to achieve the expected result. I have tried API to enable/disable Keys (SHIFT) at run time and also use some command-line options programmatically but still it's not working even not getting any error as well.One of my AccessDB contains Macro and it calls a form while opening the DB. And the form has some link to Tables and it creates interrupt asking proper path to the table and halts the application till the user intervention.Other one calls form in start-up while opening the DB. It causes opening of all the forms while running the Application.

Excel 2007 Macro Opens Access Db But Then It Disappears?

Sep 24, 2009

This code worked fine in Excel 2003, but since upgrading to Excel 2007 (Office 2007) it's not working. In Excel 2003 it opened the access db form and stayed open. In Excel 2007, you can see the db open, then the form, but then it immediately closes. I've checked to code and it still works fine in 2003. Can anyone tell me how to fix this? Here's the code:

Sub OpenDatabase()
Set a = CreateObject("Access.Application")
strDB = "C:Weekly FilesWeekly Db.accdb"

Quit An Excel Macro Externally (from A GUI Not From Macro)

Oct 21, 2010

I'm have a program (GUI) that interfaces with excel to execute macros. We're using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel to call/run the macros and this works great.What I can't figure out is a good way to cancel the macros from the GUI.One idea we had was to use the excel.application variable that runs the macros to write a "stop" value to a specific cell in the workbook, and in the macros (they are all mostly loops), check for the "stop" value in that cell. This crashes my GUI with this The program '[2188] BVLReports.vshost.exe: Managed' has exited with code -336589910 (0xebf00baa).And excel gets tied up, and won't respond. I know how to Exit Sub from within the macro if the "stop" value exists, so I don't need answers on how to check/cancel from inside the macro. Any ideas on a better way to write this "stop" value or a better way to cancel the macros externally?

Create Reverse PTR For DNS And WMI?

Dec 14, 2010

So far I coded CreateARecord to create the ARecords on my DNS server and it works like a charm, but in the GUI version of DNS it allows you to check a small box that creates a Reverse DNS PTR in the reverse lookup zone, Part of the code below is from VB6 which was code that allows for creating a Reverse PTR in the reverse zone, does anyone have a DOTNET version of that that checks to see if the zone exist just like the one below?

Code:
Private Function CreateARecord(ByVal RecordName As String, ByVal IPAddress As String) As Boolean

.net - Assistance With TCP Reverse Connection?

Jul 3, 2010

I am creating an authentication server for some projects I'm working on. This authentication server works by receiving and transmitting data to users trying to authenticate. The user can send data to the server succesfully but when sending back it requires port forwarding. I read a way that I would not require port forwarding by using reverse connection but I have no idea how to get it working. I found a tutorial and tried to implement but when it tries to connect to read the stream it says the connection is refused.
