Appending New Records From A Query Into A Table?
Sep 8, 2014
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,
can someone please help me with this problem.
currently im working on a student management system with MS ACCESS. Im stuck on the create_assessment_form that allows you to query previous assessment results or to create a new assessment. It has a subform that shows the assessment results of all the students relating to a selected assessment_ID.
The query of the results are working properly,
But I need everyone's help for the creating new assessment part.....
When I create a new assessment, I have to choose a course_ID the assessment is relating to.
>>>Question<<<
How do I make it so that it will generate a list of assessment_results record for each of the student relating to the new assessment?
maybe my explaination is a bit messy. Please let me know if you do not understand my question. But I really need an answer to this question urgently!!!
Thanks in advance...

I have a single table database for inventory. Every 3 months or so, some records get changed or updated. My manager wants to keep an archive of all of the records that have been changed so we can go back and look at an history of all of the records. So, My thought is to create an "Archive" table, appended all of the current records to it. Then, when changes are made, create an Append Query, or what ever works, to copy just the changed records from the Main to the Archive table. There are only 200 items in the inventory so it is not a large database.

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?

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 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!

I have a 2 databases exactly the same I need to append the records from one of them to the other. The only tables that need appending are "Transactions" & "Details"...that's it.
Transaction Tbl:
TransactionID (PK) AutoNumer
TransDate...
Detail Tbl:
DetailID (FK to TransID)
DetailDate...
The problem is how do I combine them because TransactionID is an Autonum?
If I append one Transaction table to the other one (without the autonum of course), a NEW autonum is assigned then I can't link the DetailID's when I append the detail tables together.
What to do?
I only have 44 total transactions to worry about so it's mostly curiousity.

Hello,
i'm new with access and was wondering if i can get some help with an append query?
I'm getting an error message that state the following below:
*Microsoft Access can't append all the records in the append query.
Microsoft Access set 36 field(s) to Null due to a type conversion failure, and it didn't add 0 records to the table due to key violations, 0 records due to lock violations, and 0 records due to validation rule violations.
This is my append query below:
INSERT INTO CustExportHoldCiti ( Custodian, CustAcct, Ticker, Cusip, CurrCode, SecurityName, Shares, CustCost, CustValue, POI, OriginalDiscount, HoldingType, Loc, Expr1 )
SELECT DISTINCT [CitiBank Current Holdings].Custodian, [CitiBank Current Holdings].[Account Number], SecSymbolsAll.SecSymbol AS Ticker1, [CitiBank Current Holdings].CUSIP1, [CitiBank Current Holdings].Curr, [CitiBank Current Holdings].[Security Description], [CitiBank Current Holdings].Shares, [CitiBank Current Holdings].CustCost, [CitiBank Current Holdings].CustValue, [CitiBank Current Holdings].POI, [CitiBank Current Holdings].OriginalDiscount, [CitiBank Current Holdings].HoldingType, dbo_Locations.Location, [date] AS Expr1
FROM [CitiBank Current Holdings] LEFT JOIN (SecSymbolsAll LEFT JOIN dbo_Locations ON SecSymbolsAll.LocationID = dbo_Locations.LocationID) ON [CitiBank Current Holdings].Ticker = SecSymbolsAll.SecSymbol
WHERE (((SecSymbolsAll.SecSymbol) Is Not Null));
I can't figure out what is wrong with it. Thank you for the help.

I have a query that will pull records, and append them to the table. The only problem is that not only will it pull all the "new" records, but also all the "old" records. I just want to append the records that are not already in the table. Any ideas? I have tried using the primary key, but then it dosnt import any records. There will be say 1850 records. And out of the 1850, 1 would be a new record.

Okay,
I'm not sure if this is the right discussion to ask this, but it seems the closest to my question, so I apologize if i'm mis-posting.
I'm doing a "run-time" insert into a table, from the VB Script. A button pops up an InputBox, and the returned string is added into the table, via a SQL command. However, upon execution of the SQL command:
st=InputBox("New Entry")
call DoCmd.RunSql("insert into table1 (field1) values ('" & st & "');")
I get a warning dialog pop-up from access, informing me that it's about to append 1 row(s) into the table. Is there anyway to deactivate that dialog warning box so it doesn't pop up every time i use an insert into statement?
Thanks

I have a database where we regulary import excel data to generated from a form sent to our clients. The excel data that we import normally holds around 10 to 40 records at a time.
The current process I use to do this is to run a macro that creates a new table (tblImportForm), and then run an append query to append those records to our existing main table (tblJobDetails). I should also mention that the macro first deletes the existing tblImportForm before creating a new one with the same name with the new data.I have used this method rather than appending the data straight into the existing tblJobDetails as I found I came into more problems with generating IDs etc.
What I want to do is have a report come up after the data has been imported/appended, that lists the new data imported with the new record IDs generated in the main table tblJobDetails. It would be easy to do this is if I only needed the data or could use the IDs in the first table I import to, but the idea of the report is to give the user the new IDs (PrimeKeys) from the second table that the data is appended to.I could maybe do a count of records in tblImportForm and then produce a report using a query from tblJobDetails that pulls that number (the count) of data from the last record backwards? But I don't know exactly how to do this.

The goal I am trying to accomplish using VBA within Access 2010 is to append/add certain records to another database (Customer Service) from my database (Client Request). I tried using a macro to append then update records in my database but there is a "lag" time as to when the information is updated in the 'Customer Service' database causing my updates not to occur.
Here is the SQL from my query:
INSERT INTO Issues ( Customer, Title, [Due Date], [Opened By], [Opened Date], Priority, Comments, [Job Number], Description )
SELECT [TBL003_Combined Data].CUSTOMER, [TBL003_Combined Data].TITLE, [TBL003_Combined Data].[DUE DATE], [TBL003_Combined Data].[OPENED BY], [TBL003_Combined Data].[OPENED DATE], [TBL003_Combined Data].PRIORITY,
[Code] ....
And here is how I "thought" I could fix it through Access VBA:
Function UpdateIssuesDatabase()
Dim con As Object
Set con = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
On Error GoTo UpdateIssuesDatabase_OpenError
con.Open _
[Code] .....
I have highlighted where it is giving me the issue.

Here is my issue. In a table with an Auto Number index some records have been deleted. I have been able to recreate them along with their original auto number. The problem is that I do not know how to append these records forcing the original auto number. I have tried changing the auto number field to a number field in the table, this works except I cannot change it back to auto number.
I am sure I’m not the first with this question or issue. I did search through a couple hundred entries about auto number before I posted this question.

I am developing a database for incoming inspection. I have set up two tables, one with spec callouts per product and the other table contains fields where I want the specs from the tblSpec table to be Append into the tblMeasurement table. Now, within the tblMeasurement table (where I am trying to append specs from the tblSpecs table into), I also have additional fields for actual measurements from received goods.
My plan is as I go through and select the Vendor, it populates the associated products to that vendor (no problem there). When I want to select the product, I would like the specs from the tblSpecs to dumped into the tblmeasurement table that correlates to that product on the form.
How can I have this automatically append after selecting the product? I am not sure if I have my relationships set up correctly or not, but I cannot see to append when I am trying to execute this function while in Query view.
I have the db attached in a zipped format.

I have to import a file from an external website into a table (tableA) that I have established. The issue is that I don't need all that data, just specific ones (the website does not allow me to select the specific data to export). I created another table (tableB) to capture the data that I require for my report.
How do I take raw data from tableA to append to tableB the required fields that I want?

Hi
I am trying to write an update query which will return a value within a new table, based on a date in my import table.
The date format is dd/mm/yyyy and I want to return the month in another column (ie 01 to 12).
To complicate matters, I want to return a value based on some additional logic. My invoice statements run on a cycle of 17th of the month to the 16th of the next month.
So if a date value in a line item of text in table 1 says 17/11/2007 to 16/12/2007, I want the value returned in my new column to be 11. If the date range is from 17/12/2007 to 16/01/2007 then I want the value returned as 12.
My American colleague wrote the following expression, but due to the different way we write dates in Europe, can't quite get this to work.
Expr1: IIf(Day([call date])<17,Month([call date])-1,Month([call date]))
I'd be grateful for any thoughts.
best regards
Mulhouse.

I have rather complex select statement (at least for me) that produces a summary of how a team scored in a league competition that week. I would not even worry about this issue, except that people float around as alternates and I deduced it would be easier to compute and store scores for a team the week they shot with a given group of people versus keeping track of who shot on what team over a 10 week period.
The selection takes 40 individual scoring records and consolidates them into 10 team summary records. I have verified that the query works, but implementing it has turned into a problem.
Problem one: my knowledge of recordsets is almost purely theoretical at this point, having never worked with them. Therefore commands and structures are a problem - mainly, I'm not sure what code is needed to post a recordset to a table
Problem two: the select statement that works as an Access query is bombing in VB
My code to date:
Dim RS As Recordset
Dim DB As Database
Dim strSQL As String
Dim inpWeekNum As Integer
inpWeekNum = 0
'InputBox "Enter Week Number" 'eventually request week number from user. an integer from 0-9
'strSQL = "SELECT tblRoster.* FROM tblRoster WHERE (NIGHT = 'Fri');" 'a test str. this worked.
strSQL = "SELECT tblRoster.TEAM, tblScores.WeekNo, " & _
"Sum([A1T1]+[A1T2]+[A1T3]+[A2T1]+[A2T2]+[A2T3]+[A3T1]+[A3T2]+[A3T3]) AS TeamTotal," & _
"Sum([A1T2X]+[A1T3X]+[A2T2X]+[A2T3X]+[A3T2X]+[A3T3X]) AS TeamXs" & _
"FROM tblRoster LEFT JOIN tblScores ON tblRoster.HEDR = tblScores.HEDR" & _
"GROUP BY tblRoster.TEAM, tblScores.WeekNo HAVING (((tblScores.WeekNo)=0))" 'hardwired week number
' "GROUP BY tblRoster.TEAM, tblScores.WeekNo HAVING (((tblScores.WeekNo)=inpWeekNum))" 'user prompted week number
Set DB = CurrentDb()
Set RS = DB.OpenRecordset(strSQL)
Do While Not RS.EOF
'Appending Code here... 'obviously missing code, but I know that it does cycle through as I would expect it to.
RS.MoveNext
Loop
'This was a previous test based on a canned qry I had saved (that resembles the above qry.
' this successfully posted, but only one record
'DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO [tblTeamScores](TeamNo, WeekNo, TeamTotal, TeamXs) " &_
' "VALUES (" & TEAM & ", " & WeekNo & ", " & TeamTotal & ", " & TeamXs & ")"
The select statement correctly produces this output in Access (for Week 0):
TEAM WeekNo TeamTotal TeamXs (how does one properly post a table in this interface?)
1 0 2397 182 0 3152 333 0 3292 664 0 2014 135 0 2836 186 0 3652 577 0 2024 198 0 1108 29 0 2630 2210 0 1977 11
Anyone out there have some suggestions? Am I even on the right track?
Thanks.
-Brian.

I currently have an unnormalized table that consists of individuals (employee profiles) which currently has a field for attachments. I am using the "attachments" for photographs of each employee however I dont want to maintain photographs for former employees, or if I do not forever. I was told to normalize the table by removing the "attachment" field and placing it in a new table with referene to the employeeID.
Since I currently have something like 200+ records where I want to relocate the employee picture, i tried to create a make table query off the origional table and only referencing the employeeid and "attachment" to the new table however I keep getting an error when running the query. The error indicates something to the affect of having multiple values.

I want to import an Excel spreadsheet into a table in my Access DB.
I am using following: DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, 0, "tblSchedule", "C:mailinimport.xls", false
This code works but it is appending to the table.
What is the best way to update the table - or would it be best to delete the old table and then to create a new one to import tha data into?
If the latter would be most elegant solution, can anyone help with some code that would do this ?
Thanks

I have a linked ODBC table in my database that contains data like this -
Code:
Task Serial CrewAmount
00_INSTALL ENGINE INTO PEDESTAL STAND 707308AS30.2
00_INSTALL ENGINE INTO PEDESTAL STAND 707308OMB0.2
01_BORESCOPE INSPECTION 706496AS114.24
01_BORESCOPE INSPECTION 706496AS223.24
[Code] .....
What I would like to do is remove the duplicate values for the Task field, but show how much time each Crew has spent on each Task per Serial. The end result would look like this -
Code:
Task SerialAS1AS2AS3OMAOMB
01_BORESCOPE INSPECTION 70649614.2423.2428.78
00_INSTALL ENGINE INTO PEDESTAL STAND 7073080.20.2
01_INSTALL OIL TANK 7073085.67
[Code] ....
What is the best way to achieve this result? I've played around with Append queries, union queries etc, but nothing seems to give me the result I'm after.

Hi,
I need to grab a record from an input table/record set and de-concatenate it based on the underscore and append each instance to an output table. I know this must be possilbe, we do simular things in GIS programming all the time. Below is my "logic"/psuedo code :)
'loop until end of file
strColumnA = tblNewRelationships.PLACE
strColumnBin = tblNewRelationships.NAMES
'loop until strColumnBout is ""
strColumnBout = Left(strColumnBin, Find("_", strColumnBin, 1) - 1)
strColumnBchop = Right(strColumnBin, Len(strColumnBin) - Len(strColumnBout) - 1)
strSQL = "" 'put strColumnA into tblRelationships_2.PLACE and strColumnBout into tblNewRelationships.NAME
DoCmd.RunSQL strSQL
strColumnBin = strColumnBchop
'end field loop
'end row loop
Any help is seriously appreciated.

I have a table in MS Access 2010 that is a link to an external data file in .csv format. I assumed that it was not possible to append data to a linked table until recently. I appended 3 records to the linked table and discovered that the 3 records were appended to the table and the external data file it was linked to.
What am I missing ?
