Question:

I am having difficulty deleting a user from my database due to an error related to the "wovw" table. Despite thorough searching, I cannot locate this table in the database structure. I am using MP2 with Microsoft Access and would appreciate any assistance in resolving this issue. Thank you, Nathan.

This indicates that the user has been mentioned in a completed service request.

When using MP2, you cannot delete records that are linked to active records in other areas. Before deleting a user, ensure they are not connected to any open work orders. If they are, either close the work orders or assign the user to another employee. Repeat this process for any additional error messages, such as those related to tasks. In such cases, reassign the responsible person to another team member. For more information, visit our website at http://www.flemingtechnical.com/. Thank you, Donal.

What intrigues me is that the user is not linked to any existing or previous work orders. Additionally, upon reviewing the tasks, no results were found.

Have you attempted to access the database in Microsoft Access and examine the WOVW table?

I am uncertain if I have accessed the correct database containing all the necessary tables I typically use. I opened the mp250.mbd file in the MP2 data directory, but I could not find the WOVW table in it.

Hey Nathan, it sounds like you might be dealing with hidden tables or possibly a corrupted database. In Microsoft Access, you can reveal hidden objects via the "Options" on the "File" menu, then go to the "Display" form and mark checkboxes about hidden objects. If it's a corruption issue, you may need a specialized tool or rebuilding your database might be a viable option. Also, remember to backup your data before performing any major operation. Hope this helps!

Hey Nathan, it sounds like you might have a ghost table on your hands. Sometimes, when a table is deleted, references to it still persist in system tables due to an error. This can cause issues like you're experiencing. Instead of hunting down the "wovw" table in your database structure, try looking for any lingering references to it in your system tables. Hope this sheds some light on your issue, and best of luck solving it!

Hi Nathan, it sounds like you might be dealing with a renamed, corrupted, or missing table. I recommend checking if your database schema matches your codebase. Also, ensure to validate the foreign keys and other constraints that might be preventing the deletion. If the problem persists, try repairing your Microsoft Access database because it sometimes fixes untraceable issues. Hope this helps.

Hi Nathan, it sounds like your database might be referring to a table that no longer exists or was perhaps never created. Given that you're not finding a 'wovw' table, there might be a chance that the error is originating from some leftover or out-of-place code. Before deleting, I would suggest taking a deeper look into your CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete) or any stored procedures that may highlight where this 'wovw' might be in use. Also, double-check the relationships between your tables, to see if any foreign keys are preventing the deletion. Hope this helps you on the track to resolving your issue.
