Adding A Field To A Table In Access

Aug 4, 2006

I have created the code below to add a new column to a table each month. This may not be the best database design but it meets our needs for now.

However I am having difficultly with the code below. The CreateField Function is unable to accept the parameter periodDate. Any Suggestions on this would be apprerciated

Function DateField() As Long

Dim colFullName As Object
Dim dbsCurrent As Object
Dim yearInt As Integer
Dim monthInt As Integer
Dim table1 As Object

Set dbsCurrent = CurrentDb
Set table1 = CurrentDb.CreateTableDef("103TblCustomerBalancesCombined")

yearInt = Year(Date)
monthInt = Month(Date) - 1

If monthInt = 0 Then
periodDate = CLng(yearInt - 1 & 12)
Exit Function
End If

If monthInt < 10 Then
periodDate = CLng(yearInt & "0" & monthInt)
Else
periodDate = CLng(yearInt & "" & monthInt)
End If

Set colFullName = table1.CreateField(periodDate, DB_TEXT)
table1.Fields.Append colFullName

End Function

Modules & VBA :: Adding A Field To Access DB

Aug 6, 2013

I use the following 3 calls to add 3 fields to an Access db,

Code:

Call subCreateField("tblRootCanalTreatment", "lngMethodID", "dbLong", strPath, 606)
Call subCreateField("tblRootCanalTreatment", "txtReferencePoint", "dbText", strPath, 620)
Call subCreateField("tblRootCanalTreatment", "txtSpaceForPole", "dbText", strPath, 644)

The sub is indicated below,

Code:

Private Sub subCreateField(strTable As String, strField As String, strFieldType As String, strPath As String, lngVersion As Long)

Dim rstSerial As ADODB.Recordset
Set rstSerial = New ADODB.Recordset
rstSerial.Open "tblSerial", CurrentProject.connection, adOpenKeyset, adLockPessimistic
rstSerial.MoveFirst
If rstSerial!lngVersion < lngVersion Then

[code]....

Only the first field ("lngMethodID") gets created. The other two fields ("txtReferencePoint") and ("txtSpaceForPole") do not get created. If I exit the db before each sub call then all fields get added. Do I need to add some "refresh field" action or other action.

Access 2003 Database - Adding A Field?

May 31, 2006

Hi

I'm adding to a database that someone else set up. I went to the Design View page and clicked on one of the buttons at the bottom to add a text box etc etc. It all looks fine, but the field doesn't seem to be active - if I add some text into it for one page of the databse, the same text appears on every page of the databse. I notice that my "new field" is not listed in the fields list. How do I add it? I keep looking through "The Missing Manual" but without spending 3 days reading the whole thing (which I don't have time for) and learning much much more than I need to know just to get to the part that I need to know, it isn't helping me much.

Please can anyone enlighten me? My email is stu_paranormal@yahoo.co.uk

Thanks!

Adding Same Field Twice

Mar 7, 2013

I got a question about a database I'm trying to design. It's a small cable management system.

I want to create a form that shows where the port of a computer is connected to.

For example; A computer has one ethernet port. That port is connected to a switch. I can add the fields for the Unique hardware ID and for the ports of the computer. But I can't seem to chose a device where the computer is connected to.

Ive tried working with queries.. but nothing seems to work so far.

I created a small example of the database I'm trying to make.

How Would I Go About Adding A Field Or A Table?

Oct 2, 2005

The attachment is the database Im working on and I have a problem.
I need to add a supplier Product number in there some where so I could keep the numbe as reference and so it may be easier to enter items recieved.
in the form section, I will have Invoice with a sub form Invoice details.
I need to put suppliers Item number somehow so it would search and if the item is on the product list it would fill out the rest of the values.

should I make a separate table for suppliers product number or should I just include that into the invoice detail? I dont want to put it in the product table since I get same Items from different suppliers.

Adding A Field Name To A Query

Nov 30, 2005

I hope I can ask this question so that it makes sense.

I have a totals query that I'm using to make a Chart. The query works fine but I want to change the look abit. What I'm doing is quering a table looking for the total number of times that there is a check box in a field called PDC RTA and totaling the Hrs as well. The data comes back looking looking like this.
PDC RTA-----Count-----Total Hrs
-1 ---------- 6 -------- 53
0 -----------25 -------- 78

My problem is that when I chart this the -1 and 0 show up at the bottom of the bars on the chart. I would like to rename these to fields on the qry qrid then I can chart the new field names so that it will make sense to the user.

Make sense

Adding A String To The End Of A Field

Nov 20, 2007

I have a field that contains various text....(It's a note field that allows 86 characters).

I want to go in to the database and add the string "Conversion 2007" to the end of every record. So leave whatever is in there but add in the string. I would like it to add whatever it will fit, in the cases where there is not enough room.

I figured this was somewhat simple, but I haven't found anything yet.
Thanks.

Adding An Autonumber Field Automatically

Apr 27, 2007

Hi,

Can somebody help...
I'm trying to put via an automatic way a field to a table that autonumbers. When I use a select-query: ALTER TABLE tablename ADD COLUMN Id Autonumber, Access doesn't recognizes the type "Autonumber". Even in VBA when I use the .createfield method, I can't set the datatype "Autonumber". I'm pretty sure it must be possible (as access can store anyway the indexes.. actually, I want those indexes as numbers in a separate field).

Thanks a million for any help!!!

Adding Days Onto A Date Field

Jun 5, 2007

I am trying to add a certain number of days onto a date field to create a due date within a Table but can't work out how to do it. I know that to add days on I can use the function DateAdd but the only way I can see how to do this is to create and update query to run and add the date on. Is there anyway that I can set the field to automatically update the due date dependent on the priority of the record e.g. immediate (1 day) standard (3 days) and request (28 Days)?

Adding A Field To A Linked Table

Mar 27, 2008

Hi folks,

I am really struggling w/ the following & would greatly appreciate advice!

I want to add several Fields to a Linked Table in Access. The Access wouldn't let me do it because it is a Linked Table. What should I do?

There is also a nicely designed Form that goes w/ that Linked Table. So I figured that once I add the Fields in the Table then I can add them to the Form too. - But can't even add the fields yet....

HUGE THANKS in advance!
