Append Help!
Feb 27, 2007
I have 3 tables which I export as 3 separate text files each having different fixed length records.
Is there a way to append these three tables together? Union all does not work because they have different columns and field lengths.
I really need to figure this out today.
thanks!:confused:

hi Guys,
I have been looking at different post and checking Microsoft help files as well, but still can't seem to fix this problem.
I am having 2 tables. The first table is connected to a form for viewing and entering data, and in the second table i am just copying 3-4 fields from the first table.
I am trying to use the insert statement to insert records in the second table, and everytime i click on the "Add" button to add the records i get the following error "MS access can't append all the records in the append query ... blah blah blah"
However if i close the form and reopen it, and goto the record (as it is saved in the first database) and now click on the add button to add the fields to the second table/database, it works.
What am i doing wrong???
Any inputs will be greatly appreciated.

I´m trying to improve my appl. but I´m stuck trying to figure out how to append multiple rows on a table using the Append query.
My problem comes since I have 4 tables with the following fields:
1) Orders
OrderID (number)
CustomerID (number)
Date (date)
etc...
2) OrderDetails
OrderDetailID (number)
OrderID (number)
ProductID (number)
QuantitySold
UnitPrice
etc...
3) TmpOrders
OrderTmpID (Autonumber)
CustomerID (number)
Date
etc...
4) TmpOrderDetails
OrderDetailTmpID (Autonumber)
OrderID (number)
ProductID
QuantitySold
etc...
The problem comes since the Tmp tables are used just to record temporarly the information before the transaction is completed.
Whe the salesman at the desk finish the sale, a command button is presseed and an append query runs to transfer the data from Tmp tables to the Definitive tables. Another query (Delete) is excuuted inmediately after the append qry. and it deletes the information recorded on Tmp tables.
I need to reset the autonumber or create a field that records the line number so I can add up to the Maximum OrderDetailID found on the definitive table, but the problem is how to create the "controlled" autonumber.
Please help.

Hello,
I have this survey application with the following tables - tblRespondent [PK RespondentID, other fields], tblAnswers [PK AnswersID, FK RespondentID, FK QuestionID, Answers {yes/no}, Notes {text}], tblQuestions [PK QuestionID, FK CategoryID, Question {text}], tblCategories [PK CategoryID, Categories {text}]. All ID fields are numbers, and all PKs are auto-numbers.
I also have a form based on a query that in turn is based on tblRespondent. That form is my main form, and I want to get the questions on it with the help of a subform, which is where my Append query comes into play.
When I enter a new respondent in my form, I put in some biographical information first, and then would like to send the newly-generated RespondentID to tblAnswers, together with QuestionsIDs from tblQuestions so that the Answers table receives a record for every question that I have.
I'm not having any luck with this, and am probably making some mistake somewhere.
It would be great if somebody could point me in the right direction.
Thank you.

I have a database that contain foreclosure records. I'd like to create a query that will ask for a date and all records that are LESS than the date will be moved to a different table.
I'd also created an icon on my form and I'd like to attach this query to it.
Any help will be appreciated.

I use a query daily that appends records to a table. I used it this morning but now it will not append records. It is odd because when I switch from design view to results my records are there but when I run it the records do not populate. I am not getting a pop-up message like usual either. It appears as if my access 2003 has disabled that function, which I can;t even find to turn back on. Any suggestions?? Thanks.

Hi,
I am building a database to hold information of training courses and staff that have requested or completed the training course.
I have built a form which the team leaders can use to request training for their team, basically when the form opens up it asks for team name and training session and then appends the names and training session ID to the main table. This then allows the team leader to tick the "request training" tick box which updates the table for each member they request trainig for.
They would then send this using a custom command button which is linked through outlook.
The problem I am encountering is that if they were to selct the same team and training session again it would then append the same data to the table and this would create duplicate entries.
How can I set it up so it appends only once and then any other time the same data is selected by team leaders it would populate the form with the existing date rather than appending the same data.
thanks in advance.

i'm using the Microsoft Access XP template "order entry", i have populated the product table with products. and i wrote an append statement.
INSERT INTO [Order Details] ( ProductID, OrderID )
SELECT Products.ProductID, Orders.OrderID
FROM Products, Orders
WHERE (((Orders.OrderID)=[Forms]![Orders by Customer subform]![OrderID]));
(i need the where clause the pull the OrderID from the Order by Customer Subform, i hope i did that correctly, someone please let me know)
On the Order Details subform, i'm trying to get it to display all the products at once.
Is there any way to get this SQL statement to execute after the form loads and refresh the output on the subform? Or is there any other way i could do this
I'm thinking we might have to do this in VBA, not sure
Let me know, Thanks

Hi,
Any assistance someone can give me with this append querry issue is appreciated.
I have a table called tblRoleAssignments that has three fields RoleAssignmentID (PK), RoleprofileID & ApplicationrightID. It looks something like this.
RoleAssignmentID,RoleprofileID,ApplicationrightID
58, 12,317
59, 12,796
60, 12,1
61, 13,179
62, 13,84
my append query will write new records depending on the RoleprofileID's I entered, for example If I run my append query on the above list I get the following output
RoleAssignmentID,RoleprofileID,ApplicationrightID
63, 0, 317
64, 0,796
65, 0, 1
66, 0, 179
67, 0, 84
My problem is when I run my append query I want it to enter a specific value in the role profile ID column (taken ideally from a field on a form that will be loaded) so instead of the query entering a zero it writes to the table a vaule I want. Below is how I want my append querry to write the data if I wanted the RoleprofileID to be set to 35.
RoleAssignmentIDRoleprofileIDApplicationrightID
63, 35, 317
64, 35, 796
65, 35,1
66, 35, 179
67, 35, 84
Any ideas????????

I think i need to use an append query for this but have never used on before so just need to know if it is the right thing to do.
I have two tables [tblPoles] and [tblPoleInstructions].
I have a form set up for [tblPoles] so the user can enter the data required. One piece of data required is a start date. The only fields the tables have in common are the PK which is the Pole Number and the start date.
I want the user to be able to enter the start date on the form for tblPoles and it to be automatcially entered into tblPoleInstructions. Is an append query the right way to do this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have made some amendments to my brothers Database. Now I have a problem. How the hell do I append the data from his old one into his new one? It all seems very complicated. Can anybody advise? Basically the tables of primary interest are:
Append From tblCustomers1 to tblCustomers
Append From tblCustomerContacts1 to tblCustomerContacts
Append From tblOrders1 to tblOrders
Append From tblOrderDetails1 to tblOrderDetails
Append From tblPayments1 to tblPayments
How is this possible as Orders relate to Customers, Order Details relate to Orders, Payments to Orders, Contacts to Customers.....my brain is scrambled!!
Help on understanding Append queries appreciated.
Regards,
Phil.
PS: Have attached a small sample DB.

I have a simple one here I think, but I am a newbie to SQL and Append Queries.
I have an Order Tracking Database with three tables:
Orders (contains PK OrderID)
OrderDetails (Contains PK OrderDetailsID and FK OrderID)
Updates (Contains PK UpdateID and FK OrderDetailID)
The Orders table contains customer info and an order number (OrderID). This is manually entered, not an Autonumber. The OrderDetails table contains line items for products sold with that order. The OrderDetailID is an autonumber, and each record contains the OrderID field as a FK in a one-to-many relationship. Basic stuff. The Updates table is used for tracking the status of each product associated with an order as it flows through the back-end sales process, from production to shipping. The UpdateID field is the PK (Autonumber) and each record contains the OrderDetailID as a FK in a one-to-many relationship.
I do a monthly update of Orders and OrderDetails into those respective tables in Access on a monthly basis. I am just using cut and paste from a .csv file at this time. I am doing this because our company uses a Siebel program for tracking front end sales, but it does not do any back-end tracking at this time. So, I export the monthly sales as a .csv and import into Access. It seems to work fine for now, but it has been suggested in other discussion groups to use a temp table of the raw .csv data, import into Access, and create an Append query to update the Orders and OrderDetails. I will look into that.
The problem I have today is how to get Access to automatically create a new record in the Updates table for each OrderDetailID. So, when I paste (or later append) OrderDetails into the OrderDetails table, Access creates at the same time a new corresponding record in the Updates table. Each OrderDetailID can have many UpdateID's (one-to-many relationship).
I think I need a SQL statement that says "Update the Update table UpdateID with a new autonumber if the FK field OrderDetailsID within the Update table is null" or something like that.
Please help.

I have a Form with a combo box that takes in formation from a table and auto fills it. But i cant get that autofilled info to enter into the main table.the one that the form is based off of. I tried to use an append query to move the info from one table to the other. It didnt work. does anyone know why this error pops up i cant see anything wrong...
Concrete Pumper Database Set 0 fieldsto Nulldue to a type conversionfailure, andit didnt add 3 records due to key violations, 0 records due to lock violations and 0 due to validation rule violations...
in detail what im trying to do is this. database is for remote control concrete pumpers.
I have a form based on a table. In this table i have fields such as model #, button 1 configuration-button 12 configuration date entered, date shipped etc.I created a form from the table and Instead of entering each of the 12 button configurations I would like to have that entered automatically when a model # is selected from a combo box. So i made a table with just model # and button configurations and set up a combo box on the form to match. now i need to get the button config from the button config table to be entered into the MAIN TABLE when entered into the form by combo box. oh man...i dont know if im too far gone or what...this may not make sence so please give it your best...I appreciate any input at all. I thought i could do it with an append query and a macro but now i dont think so.
thank you

I have a database with a table linked to an Excel spreasheet. I am trying to create an append query to load data from the linked table into a candidate table. Each record in the candidate table has a candidate number which is automatically generated and is the primary key. When I run the query it cannot update the table because of key violations. I haven't got the candidate number as a field in the append query, do I need to put it in there? and if so how should it be setup? Any help would be much appreciated. :)

I know when you see these you will think, "What are you doing?" So, I will tell you. I have to append certain records to another table multiple times. I have a field that stores the number of times the record needs to be appended. I thought that I could do it with SQL and a loop, but I can not get it. Any ideas?

HI there,
sorry a bit of a newbie to access. I am trying to do an append query, or should I say I have done an append query.
I am trying to build a database. The first query pulls data from a server with four tables linked into this, when you fnally get the ODBC to connect the data comes through. I have a delete query to clear down my Import table and then an append query to put all the dat from my query into this. This is where it goes all wrong and its so basic.
INSERT INTO tbl_ImportCenceo ( [email id], process, type, changedate )
SELECT qry_email1.[email id], qry_email1.process, qry_email1.type, qry_email1.changedate
FROM qry_email1;
It has worked once and now it wont??????. The data runs and is in the append query but it is not transferring it to the import table. Can somebody tell me why Pleaseeeee!!! this is doing my head in!!!!.
Thanks:eek:

Hello Gurus
I have D/ase (2000)
and one of the queries appended a set of wordings from another table (I'm in insurnace so these are endoresments)
my qry works on the append basis I pick an endorsment from a drop down list and push a button and in gos the wording in to a new field (memo format)
all is fine - now the problem if the wording is over 255 chars long I only get 255 chars - now i know this is something to do with text - the fields where the info is coming from is a memo and the field it is going into is a memo - its the append query that decided to format that field to a text size - any ideas on how to get the querie to append memo instead of text size
many many thanks if someone can shed some light on this

I have two tables: a project table, and attendance table. I am appending name, id, date, status, etc from the project table to the attendance table. However, I only want the field "status" with XX to be appended once to the attendance table. For example the field "status" with XX would be appended once for that individual's record and date to the attendance table. The field "status" with YY would be appended continuosly for each date to the attendance table. So, I need to build a check before the query appends to the attendance table to check for specific data in the "status" field of the daily attendance table such as XX. If XX is already listed in the status field of the daily attendance table, then that individual's record would not be appended from the project table anymore.
