Amelia, As lomng as you are copying the files back and forth, there should not be a problem. However, if you are attempting some type of synchronization concpt, that does not work.

The list I get is actually the Repository list. If I click on "Search for a Source" from there, I get a drop down list of sources. I thought this was weird, but just me. It really doesn't seem correct.

You would install from the CD and then download the Access 2000 version patch from http://www.clooz.com/download.htm. You already have the serial number for that patch. If you have problems with the installation, you might need to buy the upgrade CD for $5 plus shipping.

If you purchase the upgrade CD, it has an installation routine on it for installing the Access 2000 version. Once it's installed, you can open your database within it.

It may be that somehow the "read-only" attribute was set on your database. You can check this by going in to Windows Explorer, find the file and right click on it. Select Properties. If the Read-only box is checked, uncheck it. This happens if you move files onto a CD and then off again.

This problem is actually an Access problem with sorting autonumber fields that have had numbers deleted. There is no fix for this problem in Clooz' current state. I'm working on moving Clooz into Visual Basic and hopefully that move will allow a lot of enhancements and better options for users. Please be patient. I work on this with one programmer and both of us are extremely busy.

What did you convert, the Clooz file or your database? You shouldn't be changing database structures. If it was the Clooz file, just reinstall. If it was your database, e-mail me a copy and I'll take a look at it. At 03:59 PM 2/20/01 -0500, Amelia O.

This problem was discovered after the current CDs were made. Downloading the 1.22 patch on the Clooz Web site at http://www.clooz.com/download.htm will fix the problem. You need to have a serial number for the download, which you'll need to obtain from me. You must be a registered user to get the serial number, so please send your name, address, and which version of Clooz (stand-alone/Access 97/Access 2000) you want to download and I'll check my database to see if you're registered or not.

Hi all, This may have been addressed already but I couldn't find a resolution to the problem.

Follow up: I just started getting the following error message: "ODBC can't load C:/Window/System/" This message isn't limited to Clooz operations. I did a search at Google.com and found info suggesting that it is related to data base programs, such as Access, that were uninstalled, but not completely removed. I did uninstall Clooz and reinstall it to see if the Source issue cleared up. It didn't. And Clooz still runs fine otherwise, despite the error message. Just wondering if it's related to the Source issue. Pat

Hello List, I have always had a problem in using Search to find the ID number I have specified. It will go to an ID number, but not the one I asked for. Search for Given Name and Surname work just fine; it is just a problem with Searching for a specified ID number. Anyone know why it does this? Hortense Wilkinson [email protected]

When I tried to open my Clooz Access 2000 database in the standalone version it said it was the wrong version. So I went to Access 200 and used the utility to change it to a previous version. Now when I try to open it says Error 3011.The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object 'Document". Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly. mdUtility:fnAttachTables. Have I done something to mess up the files? How can I fix it? Amelia

Hi all - - I, too, have some "search" problems which may be related. Surname works fine, but using the ID will never take me to the exact #, but to one some what smaller. the gap grows as the size of the number increases. This is not fatal, but a big nuisance. Other times after the ID has been entered into the search box the results are to go to #1. The ID is correct, and primary. I have to "work around" by going to the Surname, Given name. Puzzlement!!

I have just started using the program, and use a laptop for research trips and a desktop at home for actual record keeping. I can't figure out how I can copy what I record on the laptop to the main computer. When I copied the file I was using on my main computer to my laptop, it will not me open it. I get the error message: Error 351 The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file XXX It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data. mdUtility:fnAttachTables Thanks for any help Linda

I haven't ever compared them, but it is easier to get the online one up to date. If there are any discrepancies, I would expect the downloaded manual to be the most current.

They both work about the same for me as long as I don't include a given name that doesn't match. If I happen to include a given name that's not in the list, it won't go to the closest name tho I wish it would, and it won't let me exit through the door icon. ----- Original Message ----- From: Frank G.

Currently my problem is that doing "Search" on "Given Name" works like greased lightning. Search on "Surname" or "ID" doesn't get me anywhere even though I follow the same simple steps. Has any one else had or is anyone else having the same difficulty? -- frank g. higgins [email protected]
