Hey all. I posted this over at Mr. Excel too on the Access forums, but I thought maybe someone from this site might know the answer to my question.
I know pivot tables and charts are more up Excel's ally, but my question has more to do with Access I think. I've made a pivot table form from a query and everything is working fine except one thing. I want the table to refresh automatically. I don't want the user to have to go in and refresh the data manually.
I'm thinking I could put something on the forms "On Open" event but I don't know the specific coding. If anyone has any idea on this, I'd greatly appreciate some feedback.
My main form that displays the records also has on it a listbox for easier navigation to records. What i would like is when i delete the records, they automatically become removed from the listbox.
Currently what happens is that i have to close the form and reopen it in order for the deleted records to be removed.
I would like a line or two of codes that i can add to my delete record buttont that updates my quicksearch listbox.
I have a club member registration application consisting of a program database and a data database. They reside in the same directory. There is an autoexec macro which runs at the beginning. This macro has to find the DATAdb and make sure that the required tables are linked (Not all tables). If it cannot find the DATAdb and then has to make a call to the user to use a different procedure.
Now to find the DATAdb I have used the following code that works. The function GetPathAndName parses the string db.name and outputs the path and name of the PROGdb. Up to here no problems.
Code: GetPathAndName db.Name, FrontPath, dName
Then I use the following code to get the fullpath of the last database used and thereby find the path and name of the last DATAdb. The path of PROGdb is used in place of the existing path of DATAdb to check whether the file exists.
Code: Dim rs As Recordset, cPath As String, cName As String Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("SELECT Database, Type " & _ "FROM MSysObjects " & _ "WHERE ((MsysObjects.Type) = 6) AND ((MsysObjects.Name) = 'MembersTbl') " & _ "ORDER BY MsysObjects.DateUpdate DESC;")
[Code] .....
As the final step I use the table definitions to refresh links that already exist and connect tables that are not linked The code is below. But I can not get it to work. It links 7 tables instead of 16 and when tested in different folder says invalid operation and so on. There is fundamental error some place but I could not figure it out.
Code: On Error GoTo Error_Linking Debug.Print "TableDefs.Count="; db.TableDefs.Count For I = 0 To db.TableDefs.Count - 1 Debug.Print "TableDefs("; I; ").Connect="; db.TableDefs(I).Connect Debug.Print "TableDefs("; I; ").Name="; db.TableDefs(I).Name
Hi there, I've developed over the past 3-4 years a database holding data relating to workload figures for my place of work. It has grown to a large size (eg. one table holds 1-2 million records). I've been trying to run a particular pivot table based on the sql query below:
SELECT Tests.Test, Year([DAUTH])+(Month([DAUTH])<4) AS FYear FROM Sets INNER JOIN Tests ON Sets.SET = Tests.[Set Code] WHERE (((Sets.DAUTH) Between #4/1/2003# And #3/31/2007#));
When I try producing a pivot table using the above query it takes forever - has it running for over 8 hours last night - then access closed down with a runtime error. Does MS access have a problem with large databases? Is there any way I can improve the efficiency / speed of access with a download add-on? Or, will I have to resort to using something like MySQL on a LINUX OS which has fewer demands on system resources when using large databases.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks for reading.
I have a report that shows 3 pivot tables on the same page. What we would like to do is total (or perhaps subtotal) the three tables into a summary table.
each table has number code, name, data 1, data 2.
The three tables are identical with the exception of I filter on only specific number codes.
Currently I simply have a 4th pivot table with all the number codes and just hide all the rows except top and totals.
I would love to be able to use something like subtotal to simply display the totals (from my 3 tables)
When I start my database normally, I'm not able to add fields, change chart type, etc, by right clicking in a pivot chart or table. It works when I open the database while holding down the shift key though, so I suppose there is an option in my database somewhere that I have changed, but which one.
I have an Access database with millions of records.I am only interested in a subset of records (250,000+) that I would like to analyze in an Excel pivot-table. My issue is; how do I best export this information to Excel.I've tried filtering and exporting, but all records are exported. I've tried copy and paste but only 65K are allowed. Is there a better way to do this, perhaps linking the Access database?
I have built a database and within it my queries I use for reporting make tables in a separate database. This allows me to work in my data base and update info as needed. My problem is that my make table queries wont run if anyone has one of the report pivot tables open. I have added macros to all the Excel files that pull from the reporting DB but I still have several times when I cannot update because someone is using the pivot table, Is there a way to allow me to update the report DB's while the pivot tables are open? I have tried using manual refresh methods and disabling auto update on open but the result is the same.
I have a larget transaction data set in access with Datetime column/filed.
I have been running pivot queries to excel to do analysis of the data but the datetime field is returning too many unique values for the pivot table to run.
What is the best way to reduce the datatime field to date only and where should this be done?
i.e. should I have a calculated field that trims datetime or should I set someohting up in Powerpivot?
a co-worker set up several pivot charts in queries, that we now need to get into a distributable format. I had envisioned having these in a report, but access doesn't agree. Is there any way of getting the chart out of access, intact, to place in a word or power point file, or into a report? My attempts to get the chart into a report have all ended with the table-like grid coming up. Surely there's a way... thanks!
I work on a pre-created Access database, and the other day I was working on it, and was trying to export something to Excel to sort it and do some Pivot analysis.
Anyway, I must have pressed something, because now every time I open the database, rather than saying "record 1 of 20463" and showing the data from record 1, it shows "record 1 of 1" and all the data fields are blank. If I go to "Records" and "Show All Records" they'll all come up, but I don't want to have to do that every time, and as I import and export all the time, I'm worried that the next time I try it it'll mess up the years of data I have.
I have created a pivot chart using the Autoform and now i want to export this charts to powerpoint, i cannot copy that chart which i have created in in autoform, i can export the pivot table to excel sheet and draw again the chats but i cant copy or export the pivot charts directly, Is there any option for that. can anybody help me in this case?
Can anyone help me convert this pivot query to work in sql server please? I'll love you forever if you help me please :pTRANSFORM Count(Employees.MaritalStatus) AS MaritalStatusCount SELECT Employees.MaritalStatus FROM Employees INNER JOIN Offices ON Employees.OfficeId = Offices.officeId WHERE ((Not (Employees.MaritalStatus) Is Null)) GROUP BY Employees.MaritalStatus PIVOT Offices.officeLocation;
Can you do a pivot table from a query in Access 2000? I found links that shows new features in Access 2003 that allows it, but no definitive information if it can be done from Access 2000. My tables can pivot fine, but no luck on my queries? If not, is there an easy way to get a query to a table in order to do a pivot table?
I've written this code in Access to create a pivot chart in Excel. All the code listed is good except for the last line. The last line creates another instance of Excel. I can't figure out what the correct syntax is.
Set xlApp = New Excel.Application xlApp.Visible = True Set wb1 = xlApp.Workbooks.Open("c:chi estpivot.xlsx" wb1.Sheets.Add wb1.PivotCaches.Create(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:= _
Hi, I would like to rename my access file. My problem: I have many pivot in excel link to this database so if i rename it all the links will be down...How can i resolve this?:confused: (of course rebuild all pivots could be a solution but I have around 50 pivots behind my database) Thanks for your help!
I have a pivot chart based on a crosstab query. I would like the items on the category axis (x-axis) to appear left to right in the order that they appear in the query results.
Some specifics: Tables: tblFreq FreqID (PK, Number, Range 1-7) Frequency (text)
tblResp RespID (PK,Number, Range 1-5) Response (text)
tblResults ResultID (PK,AN) FreqID_FK RespID_FK
Query: TRANSFORM CInt(Nz(Count(tblResults.ResultID),0)) AS CountOfResultID SELECT tblFreq.Frequency FROM tblResp INNER JOIN (tblFreq INNER JOIN tblResults ON tblFreq.FreqID = tblResults.FreqID_FK) ON tblResp.RespID = tblResults.RespID_FK GROUP BY tblFreq.Frequency, tblFreq.FreqID, tblFreq.FreqID ORDER BY tblFreq.FreqID PIVOT tblResp.Response;
[code]...
Which I suppose is alphabetically ordered.I am unable to use OrderBy in the forms property sheet because tblFreq.FreqID is not an available field, even though it's an expression in the query.
So... I have the pivot table with the following columns...
Sum of Numerator, Sum of Denominator, and a computed field for Rate
My Rate calculation is: iif(Denominator = 0, Null, Numerator/Denominator)...
I have at least 15 of these rates (numerator, denominator, rate) on the same report..it works fine, but my business analyst has clarified the Rate requirement that if the denominator is 0 then the Rate should display 0 (instead of Null)..
When I change my Rate computed field to iif(Denominator = 0, 0, Numerator/Denominator) and press the "Change" button all the numerators and denominators on the pivot table are blanked out... I've refreshed the pivot table and everything; but, I can't stop this from happening. why the heck can't Access' pivot table be as robust as Excel's ???
Access 2010 doesn't seem to like the last line. It gives me an error saying the form name doesn't following access object naming rules.
Sub update_subform() Dim dbsCurrent As Database Dim qryD As QueryDef Dim strSQL1 As String, strSQL2 As String, strSQL3 As String Dim mytmp As String Dim proc As String, myot As String
In our company, passwords expire every 90 days (NO EXCEPTIONS) for DB2. This means that all my linked tables can't be accessed. There are many other users using the DB's and when I have to reset my password, I get locked out a lot because I can't seem to re-link the tables fast enough. It also seems that "refreshing" the tables from the Linked Table Manager doesn't work very well.
I am try to build a small invoicing interface in access 2007. I have designed a purchase invoice form with a table purchase_detail. When I receive products from supplier, products have a specific batch # on its cover.
I entered products in purchase invoice with these batch #. Now when I sale these items through sale invoice form, I need to get batch # automatically in batch # box from purchase_detail.
