Append Query...Appending EXPONENTIALLY ??!??
Jan 24, 2006
Ok so I am making an application which requires me to add a record.. ok fine, but then i also need a cancell option, which would delete the record... np, BUT if the user cancells, I don't want my Auto number increasing... So I am writing to a temporary table which mirrors the original one, and then if the user clicks cancell, i delete the temporary record... If the user clicks "save" then i want to Append that new record to my original Table and then delete the record... HOWEVER, when i appended this record the first time it added 2 identical records to the original table, Then 4 the next time, Then 8, 16, 32 , etc etc I'm not quite sure how I did this but i hope its a common problem that somebody has maybe done themselves and will be able to help me out...
Attached is a Skeleton with the original Table, and the Temporary Table, along with the same query currently i have some data entered, When you attempt to add another record to the temp table , and then run the append query, it will add 8 identical records... TRY IT! and then HELP ME!! please!

Hi Guys and Girls.
I have about 100 or so tables that I need to append back into one table :eek:
However all of these 100 tables all begin with the number 100 at the beggining. I know that you can append tables - but as far as I know you can only do one at a time. Is there any easy way to do this - for example writing a small SQL statement - saying select all tables that begin with 100* and then append into a master table :confused:
Alternatively are there any programs on the net that can do this (I just wrote a massive macro to import them from a text file in to access- not realising this problem would happen!) :(
Unfortunately each of the tables has the first row as the column heading too?
Any help would be much appreciated!!
Cuurently using Access 97 though.

I have a local table that I am trying to append to a linked table. The fields are exactly the same. When I try to append the entire local table to the linked table I get an error code.
ODBC- insert on a link table failed.
[ctreeSQL]-17002 CT- Key value already exists in index (linked table field) (#-17002)
If I specify the criteria in the field to refer to a specific value in the local table, it updates it just fine. I want an append query because I don't want to manually update 500+ records!! I don't believe an update query would work because the values are not in the current linked table... so nothing to update!

ok im having some serious problems here. im using a tutorial to make a database for my small business and everything was going great, except this 1 problem ive been having for like 2 weeks now. i had my 2 main tables linked together using another table which is my foriegn field i think? anyway i used a query to make this table and to add the data from my other 2 tables to it. now i want to add the data from my suppliers table to it aswell but i dont know how. my original query wasnt saved cause the tutorial told me i didnt need to save. i think what i need to do is append this data to query like i did when i first made it but if the query isnt there anymore how can i append it? does this mean i have to start my database from scratch and do all 3 tables at once? or can i make a new query? ive tried making a new query to add this data to the linking table but no go. im horrible at explaining this so hopefully some pictures will help.
heres my relationships. what i want to do is make my tblSuppliers link to my tblItems. i think i need to link it to tblCategoryItems and do the query thing to add the data to it. is this correct? or is there another way i can do it?

in this pic you can see how the first 2 fields were populated for me by the query but now i added an extra field which i want populated with the supplier ID. i tried to manually add the number of the supplier here but it didnt work either. i think i need another primary key for it to work but i cant add another primary key to this table cause access complains.
http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a174/ragrim3/blah.jpg
this is getting realy frustrating that i cannot do this and i would be overly thankfull to anyone who has the time to help me out here. 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 need to build up a string containing values separated by commas. The following almost does this.
I use an update query in which the "Update to" field for 'String field' contains
[String field] & IIf(Len([String field])<1,"",", ") & [Related table]![Value to append]
I would like to have the [Related table]![Value to append] in ascending order.
I.e. I would like the result to look like "A, B, C, F, H", not "B, C, H, F, A". Any suggestions as to how to apply the sort?

i have several comboboxes and textboxes in a form called
inputorders.frm. I am trying to get all of them to an append
table which would allow to show the control values in a table on
the form with a command button:"add item". I'm using a
append query that will only run by itself. Getting the "enter
parameter values" msgbox and not the values from the form.
I really don't know what i'm am doing wrong. It is a single row and
I can't get the appendquery to work with the command trigger event
What is the correct way to code the query along with the command
button to trigger the query with the control values automatically displaying
in the table.
THanks for the help,

i have a table with tons of records in it. There is a field called "date to return by" that previously had a default value of Date+30. Now, some things changed in our company, and under certain conditions, the "date to return by" for new records will be Date+14, or Date+30. At first, i tried making this relationship in a table as a default value, but, you cannot make a relationship like this in a table.
So, i made a query to evaluate the relationship.
what i want to do, is have a query that will have all the same fields the table had and evaluate whether a records' "date to return by" should be Date+30 or Date +14, and then put that new record back in the table.. but, this will only be for new records, as i will be keeping all the old records in the table as they are.
how can i do this?
all of my reports read off of my table so i want to keep the table. can i make a query that will put new records into a table one at a time as i make them?

I'm making a database for tracking purchase orders for contract workers in my department. Business rules dictate that a PO is created for each unique Contractor-Project instance.
I pulled a report (.csv format) of weekly timesheets from the company's project management database system. Some of the fields include: EmpUserName, EmpID, ProjectID, ProjectName, WeekEndDate, Hours. I linked to the file in my database and ran a query on it without WeekEndDate so that I get the total hours each contractor has worked for each project they've billed to. I created a table called tblContractorProject and appended the records to it. I'm going to be pulling this report each week so I can see if any contractors start billing to any new projects so I can create a purchase order for it. Is there a way to write an append query that can recognize if the EmpID and ProjectID combination is new and doesn't already exist in the table?

Hi,
I am trying to implement an update query per the instructions at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;127977 to append records from table2 to table1.
I would like to add a criteria here saying update (and append) only records that match the criteria table2.dateofreview <= #12/17/2006#
This does not seem to work. The same query works without this criteria.
To test this, I created just one record in table2 (table1 is blank at this time) and manually entered the dateofreview as 12/17/2006 and tried to execute the query. It is not able to show any records.
Won't this query work *with* a Criteria?

we have a calculated field in an append query Line_Cost which eventually creates a purchase order.
We have to have a minimum order value of £1500.00, so, we need to total the values before running the append query.

In some cases I create pass-through queries and use these in an Append or Make-table query to bring data locally.
All is well and fine until source data changes and the pass-through query runs too long and times out.
If needed, I can extend the timeout value in the Parameters of the pass-through query no problem, but when I try to open the Append or Make-table query in Design view to do the same, the pass-through query is first triggered and then throws the timeout, and I cannot access the Design view of the Append or Make-table
Is there a way to open an Append or Make-table query in Design view without invoking the source query?

Ok, this is what I want to do :
I want to 'append' individual records from 2 tables and place in an archive table or within another database, whichever is the best option.
I then want to be able to 'delete' the relevant records from one table.
The tables are tproperty and trents. This property paid rents but has since been sold. Therefore it no longer belongs in the database, however client wishes to keep details of the property/person/and rents paid in past, for any future ref. These tables are linked in relationships to tlessee and tbilling.
I've read books/notes/looked on here for inspiration and the right direction! If I choose 'append' which seems pretty straight forward then a 'delete' query, how do I choose only one record? Is a make-table onto a different database a better option? It would appear that the whole table is copied over? Can't understand the issue about auto-numbers being copied over? Do I have to use an append/delete query for each individual property that's ever removed?
I'm at a loss! :) Thanks

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.

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.

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
