I have a simple query linking two tables using the primary keys from each. The problem is that every time I go into design mode of the form that uses the query to populate a list box I get a Data Type Mismatch error and when I look at the query, Access has changed the join from the Pk in one table to the field after the PK in the other field. I have attached an image to show the change. Note that the join should be from the first fields on each table. I am really stuck with this guys, it is gettin me down and preventing me from developing the database further and my boss is on my case. Can anyone please help me? I have checked all the table relationships and they are fine. Thank you.
I am trying to execute the SQL below (tested in other programs, works fine) but access is giving me the "join expression not supported" error. How can this query be used in MS Access? I have tried breaking some of the joins clauses into separate queries, but I can't get it to work and it is making things much more complicated. Also note that moving the join conditions to the where clause could impact performance (this is a very large DB) Could I execute this via code somehow? Thanks.
SELECT lp.loan_id, lp.days_delinquent, lp.current_balance, pc.product_name FROM mtgwl.loan_payment lp inner join mtgwl.deal_loan_relation dlr on lp.loan_id=dlr.loan_id and lp.time_out='9999-12-31-23.59.59.0' and lp.as_of_date='2006-04-30' and dlr.time_out='9999-12-31-23.59.59.0' and dlr.type='DEAL'
inner join mtgwl.deal_loan_relation pdr on dlr.deal_id=pdr.loan_id and pdr.time_out='9999-12-31-23.59.59.0' and pdr.type='PRODUCT'

My boss and I are in a jam. We have been using Access to run a reporting process, but one of our tables will exceed the maximum fields allotted this month. Our thought, dump the table into SQL Server and use the GUI interface provided in Access Projects.
Unfortunately, the query designer seems to have a few drawbacks. The one that effects us the most is in using UPDATE queries where more than one table is used to determine records to be updated. In attempting it, we get the message: "The designer does not graphically support the Optional FROM clause SQL construct".
Now I know we can manually create Update Queries, but we often need 1,000+ in a short period of time. Manually punching in all the fields involved and other code just isn't timely.
Question: Is there some alternative, service pack or anything else that would allow us to graphically create these Update Queries using Access Projects or even SQL Server 7.0? I would hate to have to scrap all the work we did over something that seems so minor.
I just restructured my DB and I was wondering if anyone can give me some advice on whether or not my joins/relations are correct. I left some joins/relations out because I wasn't sure what relation I should use.
I am trying to develop a query in MS Access 2010 to join two tables using three joins one of which is a (between) date range. The tables are contained in Access.
ABCPART links to XYZPART. ABCSERIAL links to XYZSERIAL. ABCDATE links to (between) XYZDATE1 and ZYZDATE2. [ABCTABLE] ABCORDER ABCPART
From the searches of this site Ive got it down and working to send an email with attachment via access. Thanks
The one thing I cant find is how to change the "From". I don't want these emails send via my name but my department. I usually just change the <From> to the department name in Outlook and send.
I cant seem to figure out how to make it work in access.
I would like to change my Forms to Access Pages, Therefore they can be used like webpages. I converted them in access, however the command buttons dont work. Anyone have any ideas? Also I have been looking everywhere for any information on adding the ability to use a writing tablet with my access program. any ideas here? Thanks for your help :)
how am I suppose to change the form name in the forms in VBA access, now see I would not want to change the names by using the coding.
Please note that I have got so many forms, however I have worked with the default names to start some of them would be, form1, form2 Now, when I am trying to follow the best practice approch, by changing the form name by right clicking and hitting rename, I am unable do so as it is popping up and giving me a statement as below.
"The form name 'Form2' is missspelled or refers to a form that does not exist" and continued in the next line as below
"if the invalid form name is in macro, an Action failed dialog box will display the macro name and the macro's arguments after you click OK. Open the Macro window, and either the correct name."
I have in a cell in Excel: MM/DD/YYYY...I want to add it to my Access database as: YYYY/MM/DD...This is what I have so far in Excel VBA. It is giving me a date error. I have tried both as MM/DD/YYYY still did not work.
Code: n=1 accDateSub="01/01/2011" Dim conn As New ADODB.Connection conn.Open ConnectionString:="Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=c:pathfile1.accdb;" thisSQL = "INSERT INTO [Table1] VALUES (" & n & ", #" & Format(accDateSub, "yyyy/mm/dd") & "#);" conn.Execute CommandText:=thisSQL
I have to coordinate a dbase in the US, one in the UK, and one in the KSA. I have multiple documents that may, or may not, be in each of the three dbases. I need to merge all three, and maintain them so that the document additions, as well as any changes associated with that document, (i.e. "revisions"), are updated. Having looked at access and having read through some of the Access forum questions, I understand that it can do that, but after having identified the information from the dbases that will go into access, I'm trying to establish a consistant process for maintaining and updating it. Can I export my information from each of the dbases, into an excel spreasheet, (1 for US, 1 for UK, and 1 for SA), and have the access dbase search for the document number, compare the data following the document number, and if it's the same ignore it, and if it's different, update it?
I'm trying to muddle through this and get access and excel to do as much of this as possible, as it's a very tedious and time consuming process to manually check each one, one or two times a week.
My database is now live within our office and is working fine.
The databases which I have imported the data from, where done by my dad, who being old fashioned, used CAPS for everything he typed. So for quite alot of the data, its all caps, and it would be great, but not essential if we could revert the text to normal sentences.
Is there any trick or code that I could run that would go through certain tables and reformat the text in to a better format??
I built a database application, and I need for more than just myself to use it at the same time. I have just learned that I should have built a project instead. Can I change my application "Maintenance.mdb" to a project or do I have to start over?
When I send a database to server it changes all of my special charters to unicod charterset, I suposed that server is on american charter set, I would like it to change to central europien windows - 1250 code page, is it posible and how? it is very importand to me. thx
I'm having a problem changing the hyperlinks in my access table.the hyperlinks point to locations of various documents on the server i.e. Server Quality DocumentsDoc1.docx
we have 2 domains at work so on one domain the hyper link works but on the other it doesn't.I did a find and replace so i have formatted all hyperlinks as such..Server.mydomain.localQualityDocumentsDoc1.doc x
However, this approach hasn't worked as it has only altered the 'text to display' and not the actual address (if i right click the hyperlink -> edit hyperlink the address is still ServerQualityDocumentsDoc1.docx).Is there away to change the Address fields of all the hyperlinks in one go?
I am connecting to a table in our accounting software using MS Access ODBC Connection. I would like to change the value in a table for every record in the table 7,000+. In the latest version of the software a new field was added to the Vendor Table that by default is unchecked. I would like to have this field checked for each vendor. Is there a way that I can change all the records at once instead of going row by row to make the changes?
I have a small Access DB (multi-user) on a network that keeps turning into a read-only DB, with a message bar saying please save as . . . and it will not let you complete that. It seems to lock the application, and when I can get everyone out and copy the file out I can finally get it back to its normal state.
I have an Access 2000 database in which i am importing some data programmatically through VB6. However for some reason Access is changing the data that i am sending it (i know it's access doing it as a manual import does the same thing)
Example data (dashes signify different columns 4 total)
8/31/11 - 08:30:45 - 1 - 003
this gets changed by access to
8/31/11 - 8:30:45 AM - 1 - 3
Note it changed the time to am/pm format and my 003 became 3 . I have all the database fields set as TEXT and not numbers / date & time so I would think that it would treat the data literally however that is not the case and my data gets messed up.
How do i tell access to stop messing with the data and treat it literally and not change anything ?
I created a report from a query and there is many fields therefore it made the report 22" wide. I rearranged the fields with in 8" but in the property field when I put 8 in there it does not change and it goes right back to 22". in print preview there are 6 pages and only 3 with info showing the other 3 are the extra width of the report.
I have a Header with basically four rows of Text, all in Calibri. The top row is White text, 14pt, on a Dark Grey Rectangle. The other rows are Supposed to be Calibri, 12pt, Black text on White Rectangles. The issue is that when I am in Design View, it displays properly, But when I go to Layout View, the Black Text changes from Calibri to Garamond. If I look at Design View again, it Displays as Calibri, but even if I go to Layout View, Change the Font, and go to Design View again, the next time I try to Print, it changes to Garamond again. Everything else stays he same, whether the text is 12-14pt, the Color, Bold, Underline, Italic Settings. Only the Font Changes.
I am using Access 2010 and have set up a contact database using the contact template. On each Contact I have put a picture of the person but if I attach an attachment to the contact sheet it then changes the picture to paper clip for the attachment and I wonder if there was a way of stopping this?
Hey everyone! I just have a relatively quick question.
Situation:
I have a database where i have 2 tables. One table has items in one column, and the width, length, and height of the item. Another table has the exact same fields, except the only items are ones that need updated as far as their dimensions. The fields with those items include their new dimensions. How can I create a query to pull down all of the items with the correct dimensions?
