I had the same problem with a form that had 5 subforms, each with multiple queries. I submitted the question to every forum and discovered that there's no easy cure. The connections limit is 256 but there's no function to tell you how many you've used up. Connections to a back-end database count double. After spending lots of time re-engineering my recordset actions and being very meticulous about closing connections, the final solution was to bind the subforms to temp tables and fill the tables as each tab is clicked. So, your solution is the correct one. - Darrell -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Tony Septav Sent: Thursday, July 07, 2011 6:00 AM To: accessd at databaseadvisors.com Subject: [AccessD] Cannot Open Anymore Databases Hey All Just curious. I was working on a report, I would view it and when I returned to the design mode I would get the error message "Cannot open anymore databases". The report is based on a union query, which is made up of 6 subqueries. each of these subqueries is based on the results from about 3 or 4 other querys. If I manually run the union query I don't get any error messages, as I mentioned I only get the error message when working with the report. Am I correct in assuming that the results of each of these queries results in 1 instant of the database being opened and I have exceeded the 84 (whatever) limit to the number of databases instances that can be open at one time?? I solved the problem by appending the results of each of the 6 queries to a temp table and using the table for the report. T.
