I have around a hundred tables all with exactly the same format and headings that i would like to combine into one long table, but the copy-paste append data to table function doesn't do what i had hoped. How can I join my tables together? And is there an easy way to do all 100 at once?
I have a text box and sometime the word in that text box is too long. So, is it possible to make the whole word appeared when the mouse is on the text box? I don't want to extented my text box.
I have just solved one problem concerning creating hyperlinks based on values in other fields: See Previous Thread (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=124590)
but now I have another, the hyperlink I have created links to a document, while for the majority of time it is a word document it is not always, occasionally .xls or .pdf
So I need a way of building into the hyperlink code the file extension, my thoughts are it would involve check boxes and if statements (one check box for each) but I am unsure of how to do this, can anyone help?
My code is currently:
Private Sub H_Enter() Form!H = "hyperlink#C:Documents and Settingscew1My DocumentsWORKSpecs" & Form!S & Form!PC & ".doc#" End Sub
I am new here and dont know much about access but I have to do some things.
I have a table filled in access. This table (dlb_tbl) contains serveral colums. One colum named "type". The records of this colum has to be changed like this:
one record: 0RD00S101 this has to be changed into: EDH01-RD00S101
So there has to come a new extension EDH01- and the 0 has to be deleted. This has to be done to the whole colum. How can I make a query to do this?:o
Several post in the recent past asked the question of how to package the db for distribution and how to run the Access db in computer not installed with Access. Before Access 2007, you must purchase another program for about one thousand dollar to do this. Microsoft now offer these two programs "Developer Extensions" and "Runtime" for free. The Developer Extension is a program that will package your db into an installation disk. You can package the Runtime program in the install disk for users that use computers without Access 2007. Here are the links to the MS website for the download.
I have an old program with ade file extension and I would like to add some filters in one of the forms but I don't have design view or layout view option.
I am new with Access and I am setting up a data base that will have 16 tables and each table with have over 3,000 customers. The reason for 16 tables is that we will be inputting information on a monthly basis for each of these customers (12 of the tables) and I also have 4 tables that will be perfomring different "tasks" for each customer (one is just to keep the notes we make for each customer, one will be to show any billing done, one is going to be a summary of the entire year along with some additioanl information not entered elsewhere and the final one is our customer information table).
The customer account number is the primary key for all of my tables.I want to know how I can add a new customer (either using query or form) at one time that will populate all the tables. Right now I have everything set up as tables but I can set up queries if need be.
Greeting All, I am trying the beta version of Access 2007 and realize that when converting Access 97 to Access 2007, the new db in Access 2007 has an extension of .accdb. I rename the db file name to xxxxx.mdb and the VB app fails to recognize it.
Is there any way to convert the xxxx.accdb (Access 2007 beta) to xxxx.mdb so that I can try my app against the Access 2007 db?????
How would one go about scanning a hard drive for all mp3 files (i.e. *.mp3) and importing all of the titles into a database? I'm sure the dir function comes into play, but it seems to only handle "current" directory and not sub directories.
I was just curious is all..... haven't really dabbled that much in the file/directory functions.
I have a pretty basic TransferSpreadsheet module that works well except that if the Zip code has the four digit extension, it's not importing.
Option Compare Database
Dim myCheck Function MeridianLinkFileImport() DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, "tbl_MeridianLinkFileImport", "R:DEPT-BRCONSUMER LENDINGMarketing Campaigns2014 Auto Loan PrescreenReport from LoansPQ.xls", True, "Sheet1!A3:AO50000" End Function
If there is no extention, it is importing fine... 85086 works fine but 85018-4710 doesn't import.
What I need to do is remove the ".tif" part of the data. because of the way the path is output with regards to the tif image number, I'm having difficulty in targeting only that data that comes before the ".tif" extension.Is there a method I can use that will remove the right 4 characters and in conjunction with my expression above produce the following:
I am using Access 2007 on my front-end and SQL Server 2014 on the back-end. I have a table of Car Dealers and a table of contacts at the dealerships. These tables are SQL tables. The user can select a dealer and then see everyone that works at that dealership. When they look at this there is a field called Email. This is a hyperlink that they can click on to open Outlook and send an email. The table called DealerEmails is an Access table. My table layout is:
DealerEmails ----------------- ID (PK) DealerContactID (FK) Email ModifiedBy ModifiedDate
Now I'm trying to write the code to add a new contact. My code works but I need to obtain the AutoNumber from When I add a new record to the table dbo_DealerContact. My code is:
Code: Option Compare Database Option Explicit Dim adoDealerContacts As New ADODB.Recordset Dim daoDealerEmails As DAO.Recordset Private Sub cmdSave_Click()
[Code] ....
I tried to add Me.Dirty=False, but this still returned a value of 0 into my variable intDealerContactID.
I also tried moving intDealerContactID = .Fields("ID").Value outside of the With block.
I'm aware that there is a command in SQL @@Identity. But I'm unsure how to use it in this context.
Is there a way to get the primary key from dbo_DealerContacts so I can insert that into my Emails table?
Hello. I have a mdb access file. When I open it, I can see lots of tables. How on earth do I open a form? Do I need another file, if so, what extension should I look for on my computer?? I really dont want to create a new form, since a person who did it has told me that its all have been already done. I just need to open the form and enter the data in. Thanks for any help!!!:)
I want to release an Access program to the production environment for users. I remember there being a file extention that can be used so the users cannot access the DB or Code.
I have a database that tracks staff training in a health trust. It's pretty simple, tb_staff, tb_courses_done which is 1:n and a tb_courses 1:n on the staff_id of tb_courses_done.
I want to know how to go about adding a table(s) that will allow me to book staff onto courses and track if they attended or not. At present it's 1 staff member has many courses so any courses entered are "done." I have a main form with staff details and it has a subform where I add completed courses.
This might sound like an easy qestion but i just cant do it, and need someones help!
I got two Access tables that are set out exactly the same, and im trying too add the figures in both tables together, too produce the results in another table.
Hello all, Is it possible to add logos and headers to mdb tables. This is required because the tables are to be printed out and presented. The database itself is manipulated through java swing, so I would like the table to be ready to print out when opened. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
Hi..I have three tables A ,B and C, which have fields A,B and C respectively. I want to do that following default calulation
A.a=B.b+C.c meaning adding two columns of different tables and storing it in a third column. It works for me in the forms but I want to do that in the table. Is there any way to go about it
Background info: I have created a database that consists of 22 tables that contains hundereds of electronic components seperated by type. In each table are columns for evey project so that i can determine what projects each component is used in.
Everytime there is a new project i need to add the new column to every table. Is there a way to add the column to every table in one step rather than having to do it seperately for each table? Every table set up the same, same number of columns and column titles and everything.
i can do simple additions in access but i have been asked to calculate fields in different tables
all i need to do is
i have 2 tables in my database Table 1:main_database Table 2:Security 2_3
and i have in table 1 got 1 field called Estimated security value and in table 2 i have 2 fields called Sec 2 estimated value and Sec 3 estimated value
all i need to do is add all of the fields together in query or field in a form
i have tried =([Estimated security value]+[Security 2 & 3]![Sec 2 estimated value])+[Security 2 & 3]![Sec 3 estimated value]
I am new with Access and fear that this might be a very elementary question - apologies. Basically, I would like to create a few different tables that all have the same base information (like the primary key and name of the data), but different additional information. The only thing that I can't seem to figure out is how to be able to add a new entry to one table and have it show it up in the other tables. Is this possible? Thank you!
