GetObject Error 429 - ActiveX control cannot create object
Hello everyone,
I am trying to get my code to work after a recent upgrade to Office 97 to Office XP and some to Office 2003. My code below worked in Office 97, but now blows up in Access Runtime. Basically what this code does is it checks to see if the user who created the file opened the file, and if they did, open Access, change a few records, notify via Lotus Notes, then close out. I get the error on the GetObject line. Public Sub Completed() Dim Conn As ADODB.Connection, rstTestGroup As ADODB.Recordset Dim strSQL As String, db As Object, rst As ADODB.Recordset Dim rstTestTime As ADODB.Recordset On Error GoTo ErrorHandler Set Conn = New ADODB.Connection Conn.Open "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};" _ & "DBQ=\\files-2k1\ENG\QA\Database\CQATemp\MonthlyProduction.mdb" Set rstTestGroup = New ADODB.Recordset Set rstTestTime = New ADODB.Recordset Set rst = New ADODB.Recordset 'See if the person is allowed to complete the test Worksheets("COVERSHEET").Select strSQL = "SELECT tblNames.EmployeeID FROM tblNames " _ & "WHERE tblNames.XLNames = '" & Range("O6").Value & "'" rst.Open strSQL, Conn, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic If Right(rst!EmployeeID, 5) < NetworkUserName Or IsNull(rst!EmployeeID) Then MsgBox "Only the person doing the production can complete it.", vbInformation + vbOKOnly rst.Close Set Conn = Nothing Exit Sub End If strSQL = "SELECT * FROM tblFormedTestGroup WHERE TestGroupID = " _ & Worksheets("COVERSHEET").Range("C7").Value rstTestGroup.Open strSQL, Conn, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic rstTestGroup!Completed = False With rstTestGroup If !Completed = False Then !Completed = True !EndDate = Format(Date, "Short Date") .Update rst.Close Set db = GetObject("\\files-2k1\ENG\QA\Database\CQATemp\MonthlyProduction.mdb" ) <---create Error 429 here db.Run "SendMail2", ThisWorkbook.Path & "\" & ThisWorkbook.Name db.CloseCurrentDatabase Set db = Nothing MsgBox "Your test has been completed and is being submitted for review.", vbOKOnly + vbInformation Else MsgBox "The production has already been completed.", vbOKOnly, "Completed Error" End If End With ErrorHandler_Exit: Set Conn = Nothing Exit Sub ErrorHandler: MsgBox Err.Number & " - " & Err.Description Resume ErrorHandler_Exit End Sub |

Maybe the path to the file has changed.

Nope it hasn't, but I think I might know the reason why.
Since we put the Access Runtime on the machines that didn't need the full version, you can't get to the modules. I was calling a specific module that it couldn't get to, hence the error. If you were running the full version, it worked as intended. I just changed the code from DAO to ADODB to get the same task done and it worked. Eric |
