I am trying to make connection from Microsoft Excel to Access database file on Box drive installed on computer. But I am not able to connect to Access DB file.
I want to replace C:\Users\raghavgupta\ with %USERPROFILE% in connection below, but not able to connect and follow the below process. Can you assist me in this?
Here is the error message:
Assuming the fixed path actually works, try %USERPROFILE%. Keep in mind that % may be a special character in the context you are trying to use it and needs to be escaped.

I'm trying to download a file from my remote server on DigitalOcean, to my local machine on Windows. I haven't been able to figure out how to correctly specify the path to my local destination without getting a "No such file or directory" error. My Windows user is "Firstname Lastname" and some error messages seem to indicate that it doesn't know how to handle the space in the name. This questions has been asked multiple times, but they all use example paths. Here are some example I have tried to do not work:
user#ipaddress:/var/www/html/wp-content/themes/akd/css/overwrite.css C:/Users/Firstname Lastname/Desktop
C:/Users/FirstnameLastname/Desktop
/Users/Firstname Lastname/Desktop
Users/Firstname Lastname/Desktop
Does anyone know the correct way to handle this situation?
I am wondering if anyone can help me? I have no real clue on how to do what I am attempting and I am just guessing based off the bits of information I have.
We use Microsoft Access to pull information out of our Trading program, we set this up via a DSN using an ODBC Connection.
We then pull the information out of Access into Excel. We have always gotten data from the Access databases as a Connection rather than a query if that makes sense? This way we can keep amending the Connection String and The command text to suit where as if you get the data via a query the options are greyed out in the connection properties in excel (I hope that sentence makes sense)
I need to add a second connection to an excel workbook, to get queries from two different databases, however I am struggling to create a connection from scratch, where for the last 12 years we have just been amending an existing connection and saving the spreadsheet under a new name no one here knows how to create a new connection.
I have tried the following > Get Data > From Database > From Microsoft Access Database
This imports but I am unable to change the SQL command text so its no good.
I am trying to add a connection via OLEDB using the following Connection String
Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:\Database\Dormant Accounts.mdb;Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (.mdb)};*
But I am getting the error Details: "OLE DB: Could not find installable ISAM."
Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 is installed, I have been googling all morning trying to find answers to this question but I am having no joy, Does anyone have any ideas how I can get this to work?
If it helps, the connection string we always copy and amend from is the following
DBQ=C:\Database\Revenue Report.mdb;DefaultDir=C:\Database;Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (.mdb)};DriverId=25;FIL=MS Access;MaxBufferSize=2048;MaxScanRows=8;PageTimeout=5;SafeTransactions=0;Threads=3;UID=admin;UserCommitSync=Yes;*
The only changing variable would be the file name, this works but I have no idea what the provider is or if this was even set up as an OLEDB connection.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, please let me know if you would need any more info
I need to access log files from my network folder through Groovy script I'm very new to the groovy scripting. Please help me
Here I'm using Ready API
Expected result is to access my network log file and print the error logs
well,
If you are running the project with a credential(windows user) that has access to the required file, you can access directly.
String fileContents = new File('<>').text
Assert the content as you like.
If you don't have direct access, first you need to find a user that has the access.
Then you can do one of 2 options:
Add a network drive and use the network drive as a local drive.
Import libraries that use protocols SMB1 or SMB2 like jcifs, or similar. ( avoid this )
PS: It's not a good practice to use a groovy script to access a network folder, whatever the need that you have.
So basically I have a SQLite3 Database that I am using for a Discord Bot. Is it possible for me to access my database file to check what's inside while the application is hosted and live?
I've considered that it is probably possible to do this from the command line within my terminal that I use to access the virtual host, but I do not know where to begin/what to input.
Ideally I would want to be able to view the file inside the DB Browser for SQLite program, for visual purposes, but for starters I want to know if its possible to see the live-updated database remotely, as my application is hosted on a virtual host/machine.
You can install phpliteadmin (https://www.phpliteadmin.org/) on your server to view your database.
Otherwise your can download your database file and view it in a client (Example of online client: https://extendsclass.com/sqlite-browser.html)
I have been working on linking an MS access database to an excel pivot table. The MS access is saved to a file share, which on my computer is mapper to an "S" drive.
Problem:
After I finished making the report I sent it around but it didn't work for others because the connection was to the "S:" drive which is not available on other people's computers. I changed the connection on the connection properties to the actual network name, but I still get the same error when others try it. It works fine for me though.
Error:
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] 'S:______accbd' is not a valid path.
Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected
to the server on which the file resides

I would follow the method of elimination to solve this problem.
1) Map other users' S drives to the same network share location as yours.
2) A more elegant solution would be to use actual network location for your Access file.
3) If step # 2 doesn't work, I would test users' access to the network location of the Access file. You might need to have your network admin grant them read privileges to this directory.
what version of access you are using?
try also in MS Access:
turn on in options "Allow trusted locations on my network (not recomended)
and then add your network location to list of "trusted locations".
