I often run lengthy make table queries form multiple linked tables in a database with my PC unattended (often overnight). I would prefer not to have the following conformation screen “You are about to paste xxxx row(s) into a new table” but rather have Access just paste the rows.. This would prevent the database from become inactive prior to me clicking “Yes” and spoiling my query.
Is it possible to have Access bypass conformation and how would this be accomplished?
Hi, I am extracting data from linked db2 table using access make table query. First I create a select query and can view the linked db2 data, but when I change to a make table query I get an error message, "invalid argument", when I run the make table query. There is no selection critera specified. Has anyone had this happen? and Do you know a solution?
i have a table with 7 columns. Assume THE columns are a,b,c,d,e,f,g. In this table there is only one row and each column is given a number value. For example, a is 1, b is 5 and so forth. Can i make a pie graph in access with these 7 labels, and show there totals in the graphs?
counting in access on a make table query.I work for a recruitment company, and have a table for the vacancies we raise. I then have a table linking to this where you can record the candidates submitted for each role. The 'CVSubmitted' and '1stInterview' are a check box yes/no. I now want to run a query where I have a sum of the total number of CV's and 1st Interviews for each role.
I am developing a simple database for students to register courses using Microsoft Access 2010. I have 4 tables: Student, Register, Course, and Section (1 Course can have many Sections).
Then, there is a criteria that a student can only take up to 6 courses. Hence, may I know that where and how can I include this constraint? I believe that it should be in the Macro (Before Change) of the table Register...
My relationship is: Student -> Register <- Section <- Course
I'm building a make-table query for which if the result is null (no record correspond to the set of criterias), a default message like "there was no activity during the period" would appear in the table (not a message box...I need the message in the output table). The best I could think of is an IIF function but it doesn't seem to work... Is there any way to do this without using VBA?
I have what is probably a stupid question but I've been struggling with this one for a while. I have an ordering database which has an Orders table (containing Order ID, Date, Supplier etc) and an Order Line table within which I have a combo box for Product name, supplier, price, VAT rate, Line price etc. At the moment, I have the order line table as a subform within the Order form (run from the Orders table). The problem I'm having is the subtotal and total fields. At the moment these are in the Order Line table as I cannot figure out how to get these in the Orders table. In summary, can I make a calculated field in one table that calculates values from another table (linked by Order ID)?
I'm trying to copy the structure of a table to make a temp table. I'm using CopyObject (which also copies the data). So when I delete the data from the temp table, it also deletes data from the source table. Is the data linked? It should just be deleted from the temp table. Below is the beginning of the code. I've stepped through, and at the last step shown, the data in the source table deletes.
Code: Dim strFile As String Dim temp As String Dim tbl As String Dim db As DAO.Database
Hi, I have a problem, I have a table were I list networkservices and their logical ports and I have another table were I list IPaddresses used by different machines. I'm using a multivalued lookupfield to pick which services I'm using for each Ipaddress, and thats working fine, but now I want to make the ports which is listed in another column, to automatically show in it's own column in the IPaddresses table depending on which services I'm choosing for the different IPaddresses. Is this possible?, and if it is how can I make this happen?
I wanted to know if it is possible to change the name of the Table which is going to be created using a Make-Table Query via code (VBA).
For example if my Make-Table query currently creates a table with the name "Table1" I want to change it to name "Table2" and then change it Back to "Table1" or "Table3" etc.... depending on the users selection.
I've got a problem with a make-table query that creates a new table which is then populated with new values that relate back to the original table the trouble is the make-table won't run with that relationship in place.
Is there a way to delete the relationship then reinstate it after the query? or any other way round that someone can think of.
I have created my first Make-table query and it actually worked!!!Yeah! But now, is there a way to make this table updateable each time the query is run?
I have come across a snag in my access project I am currently undertaking and need some advise on what should be done next. . .
In a nutshell, this project's primary purpose is to perform a search on a table of information based on many fields and generate a report based on the records which match the search. I have the search form working (similar to this one here) http://allenbrowne.com/ser-62.html
It displays the results from the table based on the search criteria. The form is great for viewing the results which match search criteria; however, I am having trouble doing anything else with the data (perform operations on the data, send the results to the table, etc. . .). How should I go about moving this data to a table?:confused:
I have used/am using the "INTO tbl_temp_copy" to create a temp table from a query called tbl_temp_comp. Everytime I run my query it deletes and then creates a new table with the same name - and this is what I have been wanting.
However now I would like to create a table with the date in the table name so:- "INTO tbl_temp_copy_Date()" but obviously this does not work and I do not know if it is even possible?
Anyone able to do this or know that it cannot be done?
I have a make table query that deletes the old table every time the new one is made. However every time the new table is made it resets the field property for the “Date” field to “Text” rather than “Date/Time”
Does anyone know how I can avoid this problem please?
I’ve tried an update query but Access won’t allow me to perform the sum function that I require the actual query to perform. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.
I have a table with 3 fields. The fields are down1, down2 and down3. . I would like to use this table to create a new table (downtime). What I need too do is loop through each record in the table and place the three fields independently in my new table. For example, I would like to go to the first record in my original table, than place down1 as my first record in my new table, down2 as my second record and down3 as my third. Than I will go to the second record in my original table and place down1 as my fourth record, down2 as my fifth record, down3 and my sixth record and so on. I want to make a toggle button that will do this.
I have 3 tables with which i want to extract columns from each of them and place them into a new table. The problem i have is that none of the tables share a common member. each table contains the same amount o rows spo when outputted to the new table will match up
One table gives values for E-1 (execution week - 1 week) E-2 (two weeks til execution) and so on all the way up to E-15. This is called Weeks table.
There is a simple action that updates that table every week with new values.
Second table creator takes user input for what date the E-0 starts on (from the Weeks table). Multiple weeks tables are created based on > E-1 and < E-2 and so on and so on but this is all derived from input from the user when running the make table.
I would like in the criteria for the make table for the various schedule weeks to automatically pull the E-1 column (example being 11/25/2012 11:00 pm) instead of having the user input that information in everytime and every week to make new tables.
How do I make a table from another that will only display the duplicate records in a field .... I have add'l fields in addition to the partno but not relevant.
i.e. partno new table will show: 0001 0001 0002 0001 0001 0003 0003 0003 0003
Is it possible to make my Splash screen invisible after someone checked the "Do not show me this screen again" just while that current session? Is there a way of using flags and a system table or query that would allow me to do so? Thank you:)
:confused: I am using a Make Table Query to filter a Linked Excel Table. Is there a way to cut/drop the first 8 characters of the text out of one of the fields as it creates the new table?
Field NameExcel DataFinal Data Model_NameLATITUDE D600D600
Also, the final table has two Relationships with two other tables. When I run the Make Table Query once a week, I have to break the relationship to get it to run. Is there an easier way to dial with this?
