Opening a Password Protected Access Database Using VBScript -


i have password protected access database needs updated overnight. have written lite java application takes parameters (i.e. macro, path, file type, etc) , executes vbscript through command line. have way "store" user name , password, , pass vbscript, far have not found other postings on resolves problem. here sample code of opening access db, macro, , need accept username , password.

    set accdbobj = wscript.createobject("access.application")     accdbobj.application.visible = true      message = ("access password update started macro...")     loginformation message, path      accdatabase = accdbobj.opencurrentdatabase(path)     accdbobj.run macro      accdbobj.terminate     wscript.quit

keep in mind path , macro parameters passed in string.

give opencurrentdatabase method database password third argument. however, opencurrentdatabase doesn't return anything, don't think makes sense assign return value accdatabase. try way instead:

accdbobj.opencurrentdatabase path, , "password_here"

there 2 types of passwords access db file.

  1. database password: 1 password users must supply open db
  2. user-level security password: separate password each defined user

i wrote first part of answer assuming meant database password. however, noticed mentioned user name, suggests may using uls (user-level security). uls supported in older mdb db file format. access 2007, may using newer accdb format not support uls.

if using mdb uls, you'll need different method open database. use dbengine.createworkspace uls user name , password , call opencurrentdatabase within workspace.

Why does Ruby on Rails generate add a blank line to the end of a file? -

running rails generate controller foo home results in: class foocontroller < application controller def home end end (there's nothing on line in actual file, blank line) is there purpose blank line? it's common use newline indicate end of line, last line. many editors (like vi, use) add in newline silently. consensus text files (especially in unix world) should end in newline, , there have been problems historically if wasn't present. why should text files end newline? the tool used count lines in file "wc" counts newlines in file, without trailing newline show 3 instead of 4. it improves readability of templates used in generator. consider: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/railties/lib/rails/generators/rails/controller/templates/controller.rb to remove trailing newline, template have last line of: end<% end -%> instead of: end <% end -%> that seems less readable me. the discussion below refers ...
