Applies to: Office 2010
Topic Last Modified: 2011-08-29
Use the OMPM Reports tool to review and report on compatibility results that are identified by the Office Migration Planning Manager (OMPM) file scanner. You use the OMPM Reports tool after you deploy OMPM, scan files for compatibility issues, and then import the results into a database. If you have not performed these steps, see Office Migration Planning Manager overview for Office 2010 to get started.

Important
The OMPM tool has been updated as of July 2011, The release is available at the Microsoft Download Center (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=199599). Numerous fixes and enhancements are available for the OMPM File Scanner, the Office File Converter (OFC) tool, and the Version Extraction Tool (VET). If you are using a previous version of OMPM, you cannot re-use existing client scan results, databases, or any exported data by using the new version of OMPM. You must create new databases and re-scan clients by using the new version.
You can use OMPM Reports to perform the following actions:
Review OMPM File Scanner results for Office 97 through Office 2003 files for a specific scan, or for a specific computer
Create a list of files with conversion issues
Export the list of files that have conversion issues to an XML file that can be used by the Office File Converter (OFC) or the Version Extraction Tool (VET)
Configure OMPM Reports
OMPM Reports (OMPM.accdr) is in the Report folder in the OMPM download package.
Important
Use of OMPM.accdr requires the 32-bit version of Access 2007 or Access 2010. If you are using the 64-bit version of Access 2010, you receive the following error message when you attempt to view reports: “Execution of this application has stopped due to a run-time error. The application can't continue and will be shut down.”
To use OMPM Reports
In the Reports folder where you installed OMPM, double-click OMPM.accdr. Click Yes at the security prompt.
On the OMPM Welcome page, in the Server drop-down box, select the computer that is running the Microsoft SQL Server or Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition database that you are using to store scan data. If the server is not the default for a computer, it must be specified as the named instance in the form <ComputerName>\<ServerName>. By default, SQL Server installs itself as the default instance on a server, but SQL Server 2005 Express Edition installs itself by using SQLEXPRESS as the named instance.
In the Database drop-down box, select the name of the database. Click Connect. If you have already connected to a database, OMPM Reports automatically opens the database. If you want to connect to a different database, click Connect.
Review Scan Coverage and Errors
Use the following procedure to review the scan results for a specific scan. Only scanner coverage and errors are reported. Use the Office 2010 Compatibility report to review the upgrade issues that are identified by the scanner.
To review scan coverage and errors
On the OMPM Welcome page, select Scan Coverage and Errors. This brings up the Scan Results page.
Select a Run ID at the top of the Scan Results page to view the results for that run of the OMPM File Scanner.
To view the scan results for a specific computer, select the computer in Scan results for each computer in the run selected above. The scan results appear in Scan errors for the run and computer selected above.

Review the files that are listed in this view with file owners to assess the need to update them to Office 2010 compatibility.
Engage with a developer to correct these files by using the Office Code Compatibility Inspector (OCCI).
Review Access Compatibility
Use the following procedure to discover issues that apply to migrating Microsoft Access versions 97 through 2003.
To review Access compatibility
On the OMPM Welcome page, select Access Compatibility. The Access Reporting page opens.
On the Access Reporting page, look at the date of the last analysis (next to Analyze). If you have run a scan after that date, or if you have never run Analyze, click Analyzer Settings on the Access Reporting page, specify the settings that you want, and then click Analyze. If you do not have to configure the settings and want to start an analysis of the scan data, click Analyze on the Access Reporting page.
Note
Clicking Analyze prompts you with the message: "Analysis can take quite a long time and should not be canceled mid-run. Are you sure you want to continue?" If your scan data covers fewer than 100,000 Access databases, the analysis usually takes only a few minutes. If there are more than 100,000 databases, the analysis can take a long time. You might prefer to run the analysis overnight.
To search the Access scan data by field, select QuickSearch on the Access Reporting page. This page lists files that OMPM has analyzed. Use QuickSearch to find a specific database file by name, or a list of databases in a specific path or on a specific computer.
To view or print interactive reports for Access data, select Reports on the Access Reporting page. The View Reports tab opens. On the left navigation pane, you can select from the following reports:
Database and Issue Details A list of issues for each database file.
Database Issues Grouped by Issue A list of all databases that are identified as having a specific issue.
Executive Summary An overview of issues for all analyzed databases, without the file-level details.
Active versus Old Databases A list of analyzed databases that shows whether they are active or inactive, based on their LastModified property.
Conversion Issue–Database is an MDE file A list of .mde files and .mdb files that have identical names.
Conversion issue–Replicated database A list of databases that use replication.
Conversion issue–Reserved name in Form/Report/Macro A list of databases that contain a reserved name in a form, report, or macro.
To view interactive charts that help you find databases that have certain attributes, select Charts on the Access Reporting page. The Database Charts screen opens. You can then select from the following charts:
Date Last Opened Database count per year opened.
Database Rating Database count by level of user intervention required.
Access Version Database count by version of Access.
File Size Database count by file size.
Conversion Issues Database count by conversion issue.
Warning Level Database count by warning level.
To view databases and database objects on a per-file basis, data, select File Details on the Access Reporting page.
To view database issues on a per-file basis, select Conversion Issues on the Access Reporting page. For a list of Access errors, see “Access errors” in this section.
