Total Access Admin Frequently Asked Questions


What versions of Access/Jet does Total Access Admin support?

Total Access Admin lets you monitor all your Microsoft Access/Jet Engine databases, with support for Microsoft Access 2010, 2007, 2003, 2002, 2000, and 97.

The latest version includes support for Access 2007-2010 ACCDB database formats. You'll need to have Access 2007 or Access 2010 32 bit version installed to support this database format.


Does it support the 64 bit version of Microsoft Office/Access?

Yes and No. Microsoft Access 2010 comes in 32 and 64 bit versions. Only one of these versions can be installed on a machine. Both versions create and use MDB and ACCDB databases that can be used with either version (and earlier versions of Access).

Total Access Admin 2010 can monitor databases created by Microsoft Access 2010 64-bit, and report the users that connect and disconnect from it. So if the database is placed on a shared drive, Total Access Admin 2010 can monitor it.

To do so, Total Access Admin 2010 needs to be installed on a machine that has Microsoft Access 2007 or the 32 bit version of Access 2010. It cannot run on a machine with just Access 2010, 64 bit installed on it. However, it can run on that machine if Access 2007 or the free runtime version of Access 2007 is installed on it.

I want to manage multiple databases with Total Access Admin. How many licenses do I need?

Total Access Admin lets you see and monitor an unlimited number of databases across your network. Of course, you need to have the correct Windows and network permissions.

Each user who installs and uses Total Access Admin must have a license. If multiple users want to use Total Access Admin to manage databases, each needs a separate license. Quantity discounts are available.

Read the License Agreement for full licensing details.


Can I use Total Access Admin to monitor multiple databases at the same time?

In the latest version, Total Access Admin can monitor multiple databases (with the same security settings) simultaneously in one screen.

In prior versions, each database needed to be opened in a separate instance of Total Access Admin. That may still be necessary if your databases use different workgroup settings or passwords, or you want to perform different actions on each database.

You can have an unlimited number of instances of Total Access Admin open on the same machine to monitor all of the databases you need. They can all log the user activity into the same database.


How do I configure my database to use the Idle User Logout feature?

For your application to support the Idle User Logout feature, you must include some additional functionality. Sample databases are provided in your Total Access Admin folder. Source code examples are provided for both ADO and DAO database library references.

The easiest way to implement this is to import these items from the sample database into your application:

  • Table: FMS_IdleLogout
  • Forms: frmStartup, frmAdministrator

Please refer to the Idle User Logout topic in your user manual or help file for full details about importing these objects.

If your application has an existing Startup routine, or if you want to integrate the functionality into existing forms, you may want to support the Idle User Logout feature without importing our sample objects. If you are more experienced with Access/VB6 development, you can implement the feature by doing the following:

  • Create a table named FMS_IdleLogout, with a Yes/No field named "Enabled", and an integer field named "Seconds".
  • Add refresh logic to your database to periodically examine the value of the enabled field. If it's set to true, determine how long the user has been idle, and close the database if they have been idle for the specified amount of time.

Refer to the Idle User Logout topic in your user manual or help file for full details about implementing this feature.
