Append Table With A Varable Option For Out Put????
Jun 14, 2007
I have here a test DB that I am using to work on my real DB.
I am trying to take the data in table 2 and append the update column to table 1. [column1], [column2], or [column3], based on what value is currently in control type table.
Control type can be 1, 2 or 3 and is set when the macro first runs.
(I don’t have the macro in this DB yet)
I tried writing a iif formula in the Append To: section but that didn’t work or I didn’t do it right.
Please advise how I can incorporate a time variable (in elapsed minutes) in a formula and have it update automatically every minute:
example: count the number of minutes elapsed from a point in time multiplied by a fixed rate (such as Gallons per minute) to produce a value of gpm over a period of time.
I am using an Access database for a foreign language dictionary project.
One of the forms I use is populated by a query (qryLemmaTable) to retrieve information from tblLEMMA.
This form works precisely as I intend it to work, but there is a glitch on it that is driving me mad.
The form in question has an option group with 11 radio buttons that correspond to the parts of speech associated with each word in tblLEMMA.
When I click on the button optAdjective I apply a filter and the only records that are displayed are adjectives. (The same applies for Nouns, Verbs, Prepositions etc.)
Here is the glitch: even though the radio buttons apply the filter correctly, no “black spot” appears in the button. Other signals on the screen let me know what word type is selected, so I can accomplish what I want, but I want the “black spots” too!
Perhaps this will be a clue: For each radio button I use the following code in the GotFocus event. Me.FilterOn = False Me.Filter = "wordtype = 'A'" ‘(or N, etc) Me.FilterOn = True
And this for the Lost Focus event Me.FilterOn = False
Is there a way to append a pivot table to a table or possibly make a query based on a pivot table? I need to get a count of Part Numbers and I need the average price for all these parts. Additionally I want to ignore a count of less than 3.
Also I am having trouble filtering on the count in the pivot table... haha, so I was gonna Query on it later on.
I have a table with names in it that is in a relationship with my master db. I want, if possible, to be able to automatically add a new entry to that table, allowing it to grow and remember past entries over time.
Example: Movie Database, with table listing lead actor/actress that has relationship to the Star field in database
If movie star is in table, they select name
If movie stare is NOT in table, they can add that name in and the table will be updated for future entries. then, when another movie has that same star, the name will automatically be in the list (reduce keying errors so sorts will work).
Is that possible, or do they have to manually add in new star each time in the table before they can update the database?
I am rebuilding an application for a client and I have an Access table that I am using as a temporary table. Once the user is done entering information into the temporary table through a form, the user presses an update button that appends the records using an Append Query in Access to an SQL Server Table.
The following error message occurs:
"ODBC -- insert on a linked table 'linked tblname' failed.
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server] Explicit value must be specified for identity column in table 'linked tblname' when IDENTITY INSERT is set to ON. (#545)
I am using a form, subform combination to record a bill with many details. The bill summary is posted into a tbl_TransactionsMain table in SQL Server using the ADO AddNew method. The PK for the tbl_TransactionsMain is then entered into the temporary table in Access. When the temporary table records are appended into tbl_TransactionDetail the error message occurs.
What is also interesting is while typing out this post I thought to test the error by manually trying to run the query. The query worked like a charm! :confused: When the orginal error occurred off of the form I tried to run the query manually and it failed. I am guessing that this might have something to do with the ODBC timeout.
I think SQL Server/ODBC connection is not liking how I have a set of records in an Access table with foreign key numbers assigned when I am attempting to append the records. I am new to SQL Server and any ideas are most appreciated! :)
I have a fairly simple append query that appends two columns of data to another table - all good. Except, the destination table has a field 'ServiceDate' that I would also like to be completed at the same time with today's date. I presume that this is =Date(), but where do I put it to make this happen?
I have two tables, submit and imgdest. Submit is edited by front-end users to load pictures for back-end users who then delete the images when they're done with them. Submit is edited by a form, in the form I've placed a button (Command37) that has code:
Code: Private Sub Command37_Click() Call InsertData MsgBox "Completed", "0", "Completed Backup" Exit Sub End Sub Private Sub InsertData()
[code]....
This code was working for a short while, now anytime it's run I get error 3027 - Cannot update. Database or object is read-only. However, I can open the linked table and manually change information in it with no problems.
I have a database with existing tables.I now want to add a whole bunch of records into my access tables.A lot of the data is repeated, and lends itself to my doing it in excel with it's better copy and paste abilities, and it's ability to easily increment alphanumeric fields.I can't seem to succeed in append importing to the bottom of my access table from my excel spreadsheet. All columns are the same.Can this be done, and if so how please?I'm on XP Pro with Office 2003 Pro.I'm also very much a newbie in Access.
I have a form with a listbox that displays the name of a table. Once the listbox item is selected, the table name is set to a variable called myFile. I want append the records from the table (myFile) into another table.
I have a unbound field form that I am using as a survey. For one example I have a question with several different optional answers (1=high, 2=medium, 3=low) How and where should I update my table with the actual answer if a user picks button 1, 2 or 3 to read in my table high, medium or low.
Hi I wonder if someone could help as I'm relatively new to this. I have tried to search for my answer but I'm not finding stuff that answers my need.
I have 1 table with products (tblProds) and 1 with stocklevels (tblprod_Stocklev). the PLU field is in both tables
tblProds tblprod_stocklev PLU PLU Descritption StockLevel_1 CategoryMaster StockLevel_2 CategoryGroup StockLevel_3 Category StockLevel_4 etc....
My query filters using 3 combo boxes using the category fields and the Option group sets its value to the corresponding number in the stocklevel table from a form (1 for stocklevel_1 etc). I have the category filter working as I need (ie selecting all records if left blank)
So to the question: How do I get my query to retrieve only the stocklevels for the required branch? :confused:
how I could run an append query from table A to table B that only appends data that is not in table B.I want the primary keys of A to be exactly the same as B, because I will use B as a blank slate (another append query to append info to another table C with all the fields as 0 except for the primary key).
For example,
Table A - Supplier Table B - Things that supplier does (blank) Table C - Things that supplier does (information)
Lets say table A has 1,2,3,4 for supplier.Table B has 1, 2, 3, 4, as primary keys as well but all the other fields are zero.I insert PK "5" + data into table A through a data entry form, and then when I click on "save" in the data entry form, I want to macro an append/update qry (I don't know which one is supposed to be used in this instance) that will insert PK-5 into table B, so that I can append the blank slate info into table C.
I am attempting to append 2 fields from one table and one record to another table. I have been using DLast("field","table") in an append query to get this done. However, it blows up occasionally and points to the wrong record.
How does one easily and reliably select the right record to use for an append?
I've a form to create new customers accounts. The form has a drop-down control listing the cities in the "cities" table. This drop-down control has a hidden column (id) and a visible column (city_name). The user can choose a citie from the list and the city id (1st column in the drop-down list) will be stored in the "city_id" field in the "customers" table.
Problem:
I need to allow users to enter cities not listed in the drop-down control. When they entrer a new city, I need to create a new record in "cities" table for the new city.
I tried opening a dialog using the NotInList event, and the dialog pops up as espected, but also pops up an ugly msgbox wich says that the typed text isn't a listed item.
I have an Option Group I created (simple Yes-No) in a form that links to a Yes-No field in a table. I have the default set for this field to "Yes" in the form. The option button works when the form is first opened. If I cange the option to "No", that works. Here's the tricky part that is giving me eye twitches...
If I change the option back to "Yes", the radial button doesn't reflect the change...but it does change the table data! Why do the radial buttons stop changing? Even when I close the form and open it again, the data in the table is no longer reflected with the buttons in the form.
Not all the choices (numeric codes) for my form's option box are being saved to the associated table.
I am using the options choices in the option group to enter data into a table and do additional things - clicking one option is supposed put a code in the table and then take you another form, while clicking a different option will make a new option box visible so I can collect additional data.
My option group has three options, only the data from the second option, which makes a second option group visible, is being saved in the table. If someone clicks on the first or thrid option, which takes them to another form, the data from that option choice does not get saved to the table.
I have a table called "Workorders" that I have created a split form for and have customised it so that it had combo boxes etc to enable the user to change the record data.I then needed to add some existing queries to the form so that I could calculate some totals from records in a few other tables. This all works fine EXCEPT that I can no longer change any of the fields in the records.
I am sure that it is something to do with the fact that the 3 queries I added to the form use the "Grouped by" option and based upon my Googling, this is probably the issue.Here is one of the queries:
SELECT DISTINCTROW [Workorder Labor].WorkorderID, Sum([BillableHours]*[BillingRate]) AS [Labor Total] FROM [Workorder Labor] GROUP BY [Workorder Labor].WorkorderID;
I need to have the totals and I also need to have the ability to change the data..
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.
I linked table rawdata from a database called competitor from a ODBC Database. I run a query with to make a table with a criteria where it retrieves roughly 10 columns with 719,000 rows. And it gives me this error.
(Cannot open database". It may not be a database that your application recognizes, or the file may be corrupt.
I asked the creator of the database and they said the database grows automatically and it was created with the same Access version as i am using to run the query.
Also when I do a RUN without creating a table and just selecting and displaying the data it does not give me any issues.
