RE: [MS_AccessPros] Re: How to Run a procedure in the background?

 

Hi Onno.

The earlier part of the  thread is missing,  so if this is not do-able, apologies.  I would put the 2nd Access file in Windows Task Scheduler and use an AutoExec macro with a RunCode item to run whatever this job is.

Hope that helps,

Steve

hi Bill, thanks so far. 

So i can create a second front end database to run the update procedure.

Now how can is start that from the main frontend? 

Should i use the shell command to start another  the second frontend, and then how should i automatically start the procedure ?

Or is there a more flexible way of interacting with a second frontend from the mail frontend without the screen freezing while the second frontend is running the update?

Thanks for your thinking ..

 Onno
