Append Without Duplicate Rows?
Oct 22, 2006
I need to append time log to time_log table. I could append table without errors.
But if I append the second time it duplicates. I cannot index Employee ID & Date coz there will be multiple entries.
Employee_ID, Date, IN, OUT
I need an append query which doesnt duplicate rows.

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.

I need to append some rows into a table, before I add these rows i need to delete all of the old rows.
I can't use a Make Table query because I am updating a linked table in another database.
So how can I (automatically) delete all rows in that table before or during the append process.
Thanks
Steve

Hello,
I have an append query attached to a text box called client on a form, and every time I enter data into this text box and click the next text box last name I get this error from microsoft office Access that says
(You are about to append 0 rows)
(Are you sure you want to append selected rows?) I click yes and every thing to work fine. I just wish this error message would go away.
I'm using Access 2003.
Thanks--Any Suggestions would be very appreciated.

Hey all. I'm trying to append rows to my database with some VBA code.
The code looks like this:
vInsertLoanSQL = "INSERT INTO Loan(BookID, MemberID, StaffID, BorrowingDate, ReturnDate) VALUES (" & vBook & "," & vMember & "," & vStaff & ", #" & Format(Date, "dd/mm/yyyy") & "# , #" & Format(vDueDate, "dd/mm/yyyy") & "#)"
DoCmd.RunSQL(vInsertLoanSQL)
The variables are all filled out.
The table that it's being inserted into, Loan, has an Autonumber primary key (not included in the INSERT script) and a number of other fields that have no zero-length restrictions, no "Required" fields set to Yes and no Indexes. The table in question is also completely empty, there are no rows (they have all been deleted) - so I have no idea why I'm getting that "Microsoft can't append all the rows in the append query" error. It says its a key violation but I really can't see how its possible.
Anyone out there know whats going on?

I have a list of projects and am creating a query that tells me their duration based on beginning and ending dates. These beginning and ending dates can be edited by the user, and frequently, there are multiple beginning dates. When I query the projects, instead of getting unique project numbers on the left hand side to create unique rows, I get many of the same projects with different start dates. I would like to use the FIRST start date only for every project and not have multiple rows with the same projects being counted multiple times.
Is there any way to delete the excess rows and keep the original row? I've read a lot about using DISTINCT and UNIQUE INDEX with SQL but it seems as though these are only available for tables and not queries. Bright ideas, anyone?

Good morning to you all.
I have a problem that I thought would be quite simple......
But 3 days later I am still trying.
I have a form which populates a table by one set of users (Simple enough) they can only add records.
I also have another set of users who want to access that table through a similar form but with a couple of added fields.
They will not be able to change anything only add their comments to what they see in the new fields supplied. Once this has been done it cannot be edited ever.
So I made a "Make Table Query" and added 2 new fields to that, so when I clicked on the query it came me the last update from the previous table. Problem was everything that was added in the extra fields were deleted!!!!
I would like to update the 2nd table with items that have been newly added to the first table, leaving all the items on the second table the way they were!!!!!!!
Anyone got any ideas please

I am working with an Excel file of raw data aggregated from an annual customer relationship survey that has been sent out since 2010. The file has approximately 20,000 rows, meaning the survey has been taken around 20,000 times. Unfortunately, each time a customer takes the survey, it is included in the raw data as a separate entry. Therefore the file has numerous duplicate email addresses, corresponding with unique data for each time the survey was taken. Another issue regarding the data, is that in the first year the survey was sent out, the distribution mechanism "broke" and the survey was sent out multiple times (and completed multiple times) in the same year by the same customer, so the surveys are not necessarily uniformly distributed, if that makes sense.
I have been interested in isolating the common respondents (those who have taken the survey across multiple years, albeit not necessarily consecutive years). Up to this point, these respondents have been isolated manually using a pivot table, however I am now looking to enter the raw data into SPSS (a statistical analysis package), in order to view the drivers of these common respondents.
Therefore, I would like to be able to isolate these common respondents and the data corresponding with their surveys from the raw data in a separate worksheet or file. I have tried various formulas to do so in Excel to no avail. Is there anyway to accomplish this in Access or would a more complex database be needed?
Ideally the final product would have the common respondents' information from multiple surveys in one row and would be able to be filtered by feedback date (found in the raw data), so that hypothetically one could select a month and be able to tell how many customers considered to be common respondents completed a survey within that month.

I want an append query to create a new record in a table and populate that record with fields from a form. Some of these fields are free text, others are from combo boxes.The append query adds vastly too many records (albeit all populated with precisely the same information) - and the number it adds seems to depend on which combo box options I choose.
I have a similar append query which pulls information from earlier records in the table, and combines that with free text and combo boxes on a near-identical form, which works fine and always just adds one row.

I am trying to connect individual responses to a survey to a series of variables describing each environment where the survey was conducted. I have about 1,400 individual survey responses (of about 34 questions each that have been separated into columns) and about 42 environments that are described with 30 different criteria each. They are matched by the environment description
- A line for each respondent and their survey answers
- On that same line would be the criteria of each environment.
Thus, the environment criteria should be repeated several times..However, when I join the fields in a query and require both fields to be equal, When I prioritize the environment panel, I only receive 42 records and the survey responses are blank. Prioritizing the survey panel gives 1,400 rows, but omits the environment info.
how do I populate the environment information variables on each row of the survey responses, even if that information duplicates the same variables on other rows?

I have a competition ranking contestants. A contestant can compete multiple times, each time with a unique registration number.
I am trying to sort by score to rank the contestants, however the contestants can only receive one rank - their highest score (not a sum of their scores, only one score). ? ?
Example:
Registration Name Score
2345 Sally 247
3456 George 230
4672 Sally 255
What I want to see:
4672 Sally 255
3456 George 230

Append rows as follows:
Emp1 | Attendance |
Emp1 | CSAT Score |
Emp1 | Quality Score |
Emp2 | Attendance |

The Attendance, CSAT Score, Quality Score are from a table named PARAMETERS where each department will have them listed as
Dept1 | Attendance | >90% |$10
Dept1 | CSAT Score | >8.0 |$10
Dept1 | Quality Score | >3.5 |$20
Dept2 | Attendance | >95% |$15
...etc...
I can do the lookups needed to find out which department an employee belongs to, but how to get the Employee to be listed in multiple rows like this.

We are working on an Access (2007) database that is on a SharePoint Site (2007).
Currently the form is operational, but there is one last thing that would be nice to have.
The table is "Updated Headcount" which contains "EMP_ID" which are unique numbers stored as text.
In the event a new employee is entered in the system by another user on this site we would like to prevent any duplicate "EMPID"s from being entered and saved on the SharePoint, we would also like to alert the user and prevent the data from being saved.
All data is currently bound, so once the user makes a change it is made, no submit button is required.
We are running into some difficulties in doing a dlookup from the value entered and comparing to a column in the table.
TABLE - UPDATED HEADCOUNT
COLUMN in UPDATED HEADCOUNT - EMPID
FORM CELL user will input an EMPID - newEMPID
FORM CELL used for a dlookup to compare what user has entered to what is already in the table - duplicateEMPID
So below is what we are trying to do, we are sure there are a few commands missing....
=IIF(newEMPID=dlookup([UPDATED HEADCOUNT]![EMPID]), newEMPID, "Error, EMPID already exists")

Not sure if what I want to do is possible, or at least possible the way things are set up.
I have a massive table - c. 6 million rows. It contains data along these lines:
Plan#, Item, Price, Description, Colour, Value, Location, etc.
The primary key would be Plan# + Item. Each Plan# has approximately 1,000 Items, and there is only 1 Item per Plan#. There are only a limited number of Items (c. 1500) and all or only some Items might be assigned to the Plan#. All items under each unique ID# belong together, sort of in a set. So this huge table has approx. 6,000 unique sets (based on Plan#).
To add to the confusion, Item A under Plan#1 may have different information (Price, Description, Colour, etc.) from Item A under Plan#2. I know this isn't a great way to set up data but this is what I have to work with.
Over the years it's possible that the exact same combination of Items with identical values might have been set up for multiple Plan#s. What I need to do is find any Plan#s which have the exact same combination of Item, Price, Description, etc. So if Plan#R has 200 rows and Plan#S has 201 rows, it automatically doesn't match. If Plan#R has 200 rows and so does Plan#T, all information in each record must match between the two Plan#s (with the exception obviously of Plan#).
I don't think this is possible, and if it is I am sure it's not going to be easy. So far the best I can do is to come up with finding duplicates on Item, Price, Description, etc. but that's only one record at a time and doesn't tell me if the two Plan#s match.
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks!!!

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 would like to covert it to....

I don't think Access has any functions for this but I am not 100% sure. I know this can be done in a Module but I am not sure of how to code it.

Hi Im trying to update a row this is the SQL im using
UPDATE HouseEntry
SET [Date]=(SELECT [Term Dates].Start FROM [Term Dates] WHERE [Term Dates].Term =1)
WHERE
EntryNo=40;
When I run it I get an error saying "Operation Must Be an Updatable Query"
If I physically put it in the date e.g SET [Date]=#09/15/2005# It works
so there must be a problem with my Select Statement.
Any ideas???
Cheers

The following is for a successful pet grooming business.
I have a Customer Table with a Customer ID as primary key. I have a Pet Name Table with a Pet ID as primary key. One customer can have many pets. The Pet Table is linked to the Customer Table via the Cust ID. I have a Visit Table with an Auto Number for each visit. The Visit Table is linked via the Pet ID number. Each pet can have many visits. That's the problem. We have exceeded the 64,000 rows in the Visit Table. All three linked tables support all the queries, forms and reports. How can I continue beyond 64,000 visits.
Thanks, Jed

Hello there,
I am making a roster for 25 people. In my form, the start of the roster is 0700hours until 1900 hours (increments of 15 minutes each) so I have 48 check boxes, which are ticked when one is rostered on for that time.
I am getting crossed eyed looking across the screen at these 48 tick boxes each for Monday through to Friday.
I have searched high and low and cannot find anything on how to have 24 check boxes (7am to 1pm) in one row and the other 2 dozen (for the next 6 hours until 7pm) on the next row, to be less painful on the eyes.
Can this be done?
I would be grateful for any ideas on how to start.
Thank you.
Regards,
Ligaya
