Avoiding Key Violations On Import

May 1, 2007

I have updated a database I created with additional reports, some UI
enhancements, etc., but have not changed anything about the table structure, field types, etc. The database has been in use for about a week by the user and I was working on my local copy. How do I provide the updated database to the user without incurring key violations on the auto-number PKs when their data is imported into the new version?

Key Violations

Jan 29, 2007

I have a form with a command btn on it that runs an append query. I am appending data from tble2 to Customer_Order. Customer_Order is a linked table from our MRP application. I'm only trying to append 5 fields right now. They are the fields that are required and won't accept a null in my linked MRP table. However I am getting a Key Violation error. Below is table structure for each table. The OrderID is a combination of 2 fields from a form - would that cause any problems? Any ideas?

tble2
OrderID - text, required
CustomerID - text, required
EntityID - text, required
BuyRate - number, required
SellRate - number, required

Customer_Order
ID - text, required
Customer_ID - text, required
Entity_ID - text, required
Buy_Rate - number, required
Sell_Rate - number, required

Append Key Violations

Sep 6, 2007

im trying to perform an append query, but for some reason cannot due to 'key violations'.

the primary keys in both tables are exactly the same. im trying to append a row from one table to the other without creating additional records.

i can do the append, creating additional records when i remove the primary key from the destination table, but that wont work. and im getting sick of cut and paste.

any thoughts?

Append Query Key Violations - Hairy One...

Jun 15, 2006

Hi All,

I have a major hair puller...

I have a system whereby I have a Front End (FE) and back end (BE) for storing data etc.

I am appending data from the BE to the FE into a local table to work on it (checking it "OUT" so no one else can work on it, then back "IN" when finished...)

Problem is I am getting a key violation when I Append the Data back in.

I have tried:
- Removing all FKs
- PK is autonumber and should autogenerate when appending back in?
- removed all relationships and lookups in both BE and FE tables

I have an issue as I can't see how this can be happening to 90% of the records. I just Appended them from the BE to the FE 2 secs ago, why cant they go back to the BE?

This is the SQL I am running (in VB) to append it back

strSQL = "INSERT INTO TblFieldValueBE ( QuoteID, QuoteTypeID, SectionID, SubSection, FieldID, FieldValue, MemoFieldValue, NumberFieldValue, CalcFieldValue, [Date], UpdatedBy ) SELECT TblFieldValue.QuoteID, TblFieldValue.QuoteTypeID, TblFieldValue.SectionID, TblFieldValue.SubSection, TblFieldValue.FieldID, TblFieldValue.FieldValue, TblFieldValue.MemoFieldValue, TblFieldValue.NumberFieldValue, TblFieldValue.CalcFieldValue, TblFieldValue.Date, TblFieldValue.UpdatedBy FROM TblFieldValue;"

TblFieldValueBE.ValueID is PK in BE (Local Linked Table)
TblFieldValue.ValueID is PK in FE

Neither are Appended in the Check IN or OUT function?

I have flattened all the fields in both tables to be just Text Boxes, with Number formats (ie. QuoteID)
Did have a relationship, but deleted it.

Have looked at Update and Append Query posts to, that is not appropriate for what I want to do, I want to DELETE * Where QuoteID = X so the data that is appended is the latest Data in the BE that has been worked on, and to save 000s of fields being duplicated everytime a QuoteID is called from BE to FE to BE...

Would appreciate your help as it has me stumped. Have checked all Key Violation and Append posts on this site and googled it, and spoken to a few "experts" around here........

Thanks so much!

Queries :: Key Violations With Append Query

Feb 14, 2014

I am having fun with key violations and cant seem to find out why?

I basically am deleting a Job but when i delete it i want to archive it hence the 'Archive' query and the History Tables.

It seems to be pasting everything in fine apart from the 'EmpJobHistory' Table?

I am getting the usual message "Key violations"?

I think i need the intermediate 'EmpJobHistory' Table because there will be Employees that are related to many Jobs and vice versa.

Forms :: Key Violations For 2 Records On Append

Jul 2, 2015

I've been reading through the Key errors but how they apply to my application. I am appending records into a table from a main form and a sub form. I can append twice and then I get the key error.

Can't append all records in the append query. Type conversion, Key violations for 2 records. I don't understand why the subform lists the first 2 with no problem but if there are more than 2 it throws the error.I have checked the possible reasons but there are no violations.

Tables :: Type Conversion Failure And Key Violations

Jan 23, 2014

I am trying to import records from Excel and I have two issues:

1) I have imported the excel file into a new table and I get type conversion errors just for fields 25, 26, 28 and 29 (and only for rows 2 to 25) but there aren't that many fields in the table.

2) The second is that I get key violations even though the indexing for all the fields for "table_candidate" is set to "no" (apart from the "cand_ID").

I can't see anything wrong with the records.

Queries :: Microsoft Access Didn't Add Records Due To Key Violations

Sep 12, 2014

I have a table called tblTarget, with 3 fields: Autonumber ID, Number F1, Number F2. F1 and F2 are indexed, allow duplicates, and are not required. I'm trying create an append query. SQL code is the following:

Code:
Insert into tblTarget
SELECT *
FROM (
Select 1 as F1, 1 as F2 from onerow)

-onerow is a dummy table.

When I run the query, I receive the error in the title: Microsoft Access Didn't Add 1 Record(s) Due To Key Violations. I've tried many syntaxes for the query, they all supposedly work, but they lead to this error.

Queries :: Append Query Validation Rule Violations

Jul 31, 2013

I'm trying to create an Append Query in Microsoft Access to add some data from one table into another table. I checked all of the properties and fields to make sure there are no validations. I have allowed zero length, and have tested the validation rules under the tools section of the design tab on both of the tables. When I run the Append Query, I still get an error that says 0 records added due to validation rule violations.

Avoiding 20 Levels Of Iif-Then-Else

Mar 14, 2008

I'm sure there's an easy solution to this somewhere...

I have a query that is supposed to assign a wage to a production job if the range output falls within a certain percentage range. For example, if they produce 125% to 130% of their goal, their wage is 15 cents higher. If it's between 130% and 135% of their goal, their wage is 30 cents higher. There are about 20 ranges that my bosses want set up. Short of making the longest Iif-Then-Else statement in history, does anybody have any suggestions? Should I use a separate table and somehow try to integrate it into the query?

Avoiding Duplicate Dates

Mar 2, 2005

Hi there

I want to avoid duplicate dates in the date field of my form. It's a little more tricky than it sounds though. Imagine two fields in a form; one list box of eleven values and one date field. Once i have chosen a value from the list box i enter the date in the second field. It is ok for one value to have the same date as another value (in another record) but i don't want to have duplicate dates for one value. Any idea how to SIMPLY overcome this problem?

Not really looking to fully understand how it all works, i would be happy just to fix the problem.

Cheers

Avoiding Divide By Zero Error

Aug 25, 2005

Hi all.

I have three subforms on my main form. They all display salary details from different sources, and each subform has 2 calculated fields in the form footer to show the average salary and the number of records on which the average has been calculated.

I then have a field on the main form to calculate the average of the averages which works OK unless one of the subforms has null or zero in it, in which case it returns no information.

Can anyone suggest a way of bypassing this divide by zero error? The code I'm using to calculate the average of averages is as follows:

Me!Text44 = ((Me![Frm1 subform].Form!text4 * Me![Frm1subform].Form!Text6) + (Me![Frm2 subform].Form!text4 * Me![Frm2 subform].Form!Text6) + (Me![Frm3 subform].Form!Text6 * Me![Frm3 subform].Form!Text8)) / (Me![Frm1 subform].Form!Text6 + Me![Frm2 subform].Form!Text6 + Me![Frm3 subform].Form!Text8)

Thanks for any help you can provide...

Avoiding Make-Table Queries

Mar 28, 2006

I have 4 queries needed to power one report. I've tried combining the queries into one so I can run the report off that. However, there is too much data and I get all sorts of errors. My only solution was to toss that data into a table thereby eliminating all the calculations and expressions and cleaning up the data. Is there a more elegant solution to this issue?

Avoiding Duplicity & Referencing Records

Jun 5, 2005

Hi,
nuther question from the forum dunce I'm afraid,
I want to ensure the user of the form cannot enter the same [cboPlayerName]
twice for the same [txtMeetDate] (thanks for the advice trubolotta, I changed
the name of the [Date] field.) The user will select the PlayerName from a combo
box. Can I have the list in the combo box diminish by each player as they have
been selected for a [txtMeetDate] I suspect a monstrous amount of code &
intellectual input will be required to achieve this. Basically, what I'm asking
(this time !) is how can I have my program search my tblScratchScores for
duplicate names for the [MeetDate] that I am currently inputting Data for?

Avoiding Duplicate Records Without Using Primary Key

Sep 21, 2015

I have a modest sized data base and have been having trouble keeping out duplicate records with the same last name, first name, and DOB. I know I could use all 3 fields as a primary key, but I would like a simpler way of checking for duplicates.

Forms :: Avoiding Duplicate Entries By Same User

Aug 1, 2014

If different people will be entering data into a "new donor" form, how do I keep them from adding the same person a second time?

It's possible people could have the same name, and it's possible that two people at the same address could be donors. So I assume I would want a "no duplicates" on the combination of name and address, right? But how to actually do that.

Modules & VBA :: Using FSO To Write To Text File - Avoiding Conflicts

May 21, 2015

I have a function to write some data to a text file (as an activity log, separate to the live data contained in the DB)

It uses the FileSystemObject.OpenTextFile method and works fine

However, I'm conscious that, although perhaps unlikely, there is the possibility (which is enough for me to worry about it) that multiple users could trigger the function simultaneously, which could cause a conflict when multiple FE's try to write to the same log file at the same time.

So I'm trying to add some code to prevent this from happening, by checking if write-access is available before proceeding.

Below is the piece of code I've added. Was considering, as an alternative, looping until the objFile is no longer Nothing, rather than depending on the Err.Number?

Code:
Dim objFSO As Object
Dim objFile As Object
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
...
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

[Code] .....

DB Design To Eliminate Duplicates While Avoiding Compound Key Fields

Nov 10, 2013

I'm getting back into Access after retiring and about 10 years of isolation (from Access). I have 2010 version and know that one should avoid duplicate entries and a way to do this is make those fields unique key fields. I have a Customers table and have bounced back between CusID (AutoNumber) and Compound Keys (CusFName and CusLName) as the key fields. The compound keys prevent duplicates but become very hard to work with later in code and expressions. The CusID is preferable from that standpoint, but can't prevent inadvertent entry of duplicate names.

Avoiding DB Login Screen Everytime We Run MS Access DB Queries Which Have Oracle DB

Oct 9, 2006

Hi -

Currently I have MS Access DB which has some Oracle database table reference using database link concept. I have entered DSN Name,user id and password which it asks when I try to run some queries which will fetch data from oralce DB linked tables.If some wants to use my MS Access DB, they need to have DSN and everytime they run queries related to Oracle database table reference, it will ask for DSN,user id and password. For this I need to share the user id and password credentials to everyone who wishes to use my MS Access DB which I don't want to. Is there a way to avoid the login window whenever some one wants to use my MS Access DB without asking for oracle user id and password credentials everytime? My ultimate aim would be encrypt password for others.

Thanks,
Ashok

MS Word Link MS Access Table Data - Avoiding Duplicates

Dec 7, 2007

Hi All,

I have an MS Access table that currently links into word as a mail merge. Great!

Sample data as follows:

Tutor Student
Mr A Donald Duck
Mr A Mickey Mouse
Mr A Minnie Mouse
Mrs B Joe Bloggs

I want to produce a mail document that allows me to address each tutor separately, along with the respective student names in a grid.

Now I've setup the document, but when I view each document it produces the list of all students for each tutor.

e.g.

Dear Mr A

Your students are:

Donald Duck
Mickey Mouse
Minnie Mouse

-------------------

Dear Mrs B

Your Students are:

Joe Bloggs

Is this at all possible?

Thanks:)
