Accent Marks & Foreign Characters
Oct 7, 2005
Hello,
I'm having an issue with foreign language characters (that have accent marks) not being accepted in our database input fields when a user tries to enter them into the textbox. i've enabled foreign languages, checked help menus, used the character map in accessories, and even tried using the alt+# method but to no avail.
since our company works with many foreign countries, many of the firms names have all sorts of crazy accents (à ã ç ö š ǐ ø) and as you can see from that example, one already showed up incorrectly as a box instead of an "i" with the "u" looking accent above it. I've attached a screenshot to this post so you can see what i'm talking about, however in the example it's the "s" with the "u" looking accent that doesn't show in access, as opposed to the "i" replaced by a box in this post.
My question is, is there any way of adjusting our system so as to make sure all accents are allowed? If you also have a list of steps that I can follow, I can try to redo it your way since the ones I've tried have not worked.
Any help would be greatly apprecaited. Thanks in advance!

When I view data in linked tables in MS Access containing foreign characters (umlauts, accents, etc), the foreign characters are not being displayed properly. It is not a font or Access setting because I am using a separate similar database (also containing linked tables) where the foreign characters are being properly displayed.
Is there a setting I'm missing in the linking of the tables? Not sure where else to check.

I try to make my second database in Access. I need to summary 5 numbers, and then minus the lowest and the highest of them. For example (1+2+3+4+5)-1-5=9
In excel it looks like this: =SUM(C2:G2)-MAX(C2:G2)-MIN(C2:G2)
In access (Expression builder) i made this code: [J1]+[J2]+[J3]+[J4]+[J5] - it's the summary of five marks, but how can i erase the highest and the lowest one?

Hi,
This is probably real easy to do, but ........ I have a field in Access that looks like this:
"12:12:01 PM 12/5/2005, 5:00:01 AM 12/6/2005, 7:00:25 AM 12/6/2005"
From this string, all I want is the last Date entry (mm/dd/yyyy). Thus in this result, it would be 12/6/2005. I know how to use the Right(), Left() and Mid() functions, but I do not want quotation marks included in my result.
Any help would be great ......

I have a statement which is driving me nuts...i'm a beginner with using SQL:
Private Sub Command45_Click()
Me.Graph0.RowSource = "SELECT (Format([Date],""" """mmm""" ''yy')) AS Expr1 FROM Chart_Unsafe_Daily GROUP BY (Format([Date],'mmm'' '''yy")), (Year([Date])*12+Month([Date])-1);
End Sub
The statement is RED for an error, i'm sure it is because the quotation marks within the statement are incorrect.
Can anybody help me out?

Hello I am trying to design a CD label 'report', it's going well except that the title field of our productions has to print with quotation marks around it'. The name of the field is, yes you guessed it, TITLE. I know it must be a simple solution but I'm at a loss to find it or understand it. I'm just a dumbo. Thanks for your time and expertise.

If anyone wants to test this out to verify its a true bug it would be helpful:
Create a tab control.
Place a treeview control (with checkboxes = Yes) on one of the pages.
Populate the treeview.
Check some boxes.
Move to the next page of the tab control.
Return to the page with the treeview.
Viola! The checkboxes you checked previously are all unchecked.
(Not just visually, but property-wise as well).
One step forward, two steps back.
Actually, the work around is to remove the treeview from the tab control and then change the Visible property of the treeview to False if on a different tab page, and True if on the page you want it to display on. But c'mon why can't it work the way you'd expect it to work!

I am using DoCmd.TransferText to import a CSV file to a new table.
The problem is some of the fields contain quotation marks which really messes things up for me later on.
Is there some way I can go through the whole table and remove them?
Maybe a Query?
Or VBA?

In the highlighted line of code attached I am comparing two strings one from a snapshot recordset and one from an array.
The logic fails, you can see in the watches window both values equal "DESIGN and the elseif statement should execute but it does not.
The only reason I can see for this is that the values are equal to "DESIGN and not DESIGN. Where this single quotation mark comes from I do not know. It is not visible in the tables and it does not appear when the values are printed into excel.

I created a query in Query Builder which contains a DCount with multiple parameters and it runs as it should. I am trying to convert it to VBA, but my inability to put in the quotations marks correctly is frustrating me terribly.
Here is the SQL version from Query Builder:
UPDATE [Daily Status Update Table] SET [Daily Status Update Table].NumberOfChases = DCount("[ChaseOtherID5]","[Chases_View_ALL - TX_Mbr 9 Digit]","[ChaseOtherID5] = 'U - Initial Contact' AND [ChaseStatus] = 'A'"), [Daily Status Update Table].ChaseStatus = "A", [Daily Status Update Table].NewStatus = "A", [Daily Status Update Table].ChaseAssignment2 = "Unscheduled"
WHERE ((([Daily Status Update Table].ChaseOtherID5)="U - Initial Contact"));

I am having a frustrating problem with a report filter I have been using for years. The filter works fine if the data is a number, but I am using it for text this time and it simply will not filter the report because I am unable to have the text display as per below. I need to be able to put a qutotation mark before and after the text so that the report filter will recognise and apply the filter appropriately.
The report filter requires this [RA] = "MT"
and this is what I currently have [RA] = MT
This is what the code looks like -
DoCmd.OpenReport "Rpt AMR", acViewPreview, , "[RA] = " & RScoloumdetail(5)
I just need a quotation mark before and after RScoloumdetail(5)
This filter does not work....

The calculated field converts all percentage marks perfectly fine with grades except 100 which returns to a stupid "E" . I've been trying all sorts and now give up.
Code:
Grade:IIf([Percentage]<20,"U",IIf([Percentage]<30,"G",IIf([Percentage]<40,"F",IIf([Percentage]<"50","E",IIf([Percentage]<60,"D",IIf([Percentage]<70,"C",IIf([Percentage]<80,"B",IIf([Percentage]<90,"A",IIf([Percentage]<100,"A+")))))))))

I have a table in Access 2010 containing the results of a survey. One of the fields in table is the actual quotes from customers who gave direct feedback. I have created a simple report containing all of the quotes. My manager would liek them included in a summary Word doc but wants quotation marks around every quote. It's too many to manually after the report is exported to Word. Is there a way to include quotation marks around the field in the report design view?

I found this code on a website that uses a form to search all tables in my database. Problem is that when I click "search" I get an invalid argument error. I am guessing that there is a problem with my SQL string. Missing space? Missing quotation marks? etc etc.... Anyway, here is the code:
Dim tdf As DAO.TableDef
Dim fld As DAO.Field
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim strSearch As String
Dim strTableName As String
[Code] ....

I import data through different files into a table, the data comes in different formats. I have a problem sometimes some records have double quotation marks and carriage returns. I know how to replace them as
Carriage Returns
Replace([FieldName],Chr(13) & Chr(10),""
Double Quotation Marks
Replace([FieldName],Chr(34),""
But if i want to use an iif statement because in the field there could be a Double Quotation Mark or Carriage return then it does not find the record
iif([FieldName] like Chr(34),Replace([FieldName],Chr(34),"",[FieldName])
