Data similar to this is imported into the database I am creating for my users. If you notice, in the servername field, some records have no information. Those records imply that the servername above it is the servername in question. Is there any way, via SQL to say something to the effect of:
If the previous records servername field is 'Server 1' then fill in the servername field for the current record with 'Server 1'
Ive thought about transferring the entire table into an array in VBA, and trying to manipulate it that way, since the data is never going to exceed a full page or so. However, im not even sure how to do that yet :P
I'm accessing an iSeries database with MS Access and Client Access ODBC driver. This works fine for reports and such, but not for editing or updating.
Trying to use edit queries, I get error 3073 (..must use an updatable query). But if I just open a table in Access and don't use a query, you should be able to edit directly into the table. But for me, this isn't possible.:confused:
I have an MS Access 2007 desktop database that has been in use for many years. Of the numerous tables, I have three tables that now require users to update some fields via the web. I do not want to move to SQLServer Express, SQLite, MySQL, PostgreSQL... as they are not my skill set.
My question is what is the best architecture to achieve this end so I can automate the presentation data from my desktop to the web pages and have any updates appear back on the desktop?
Is there a way to edit/replace tables in a query after you've copied the query? Basically, I have created a query and would like to copy the quesry. However, I would like to easily change some of the tables within the query. Is there a way to edit/replace the tables?
I have a commitment table in my database, and normally people will input commitments through a form.
However each month I will have a flat file upload from excel directly into the Commitment Table, these will be up to 1500 lines. (they are downloads from other systems, that we want to have in our database and i can't link directly to these systems).
I created a macro to do this, and attached it to a button and tested it and it works fine.
My issue is this, once I've uploaded it once, next month what I would like to happen is when I upload it again that it changes the original commitment should any of the details be different or it inserts a new commitment if it didn't already exist. (After I have uploaded the original data, I can download it to get the commitment ID to attach to the excel files if necessary.)
I have query that runs ok but will not let me edit the data when I run it. I have 4 tables going to that query , if I delete a certain table I can then edit the query.
I have ODBC linked tables to a DB2 database.When I try to edit the values in some of the tables (open the table in dataview and edit one record) I get a 3021 Error -No current record.On other tables (linked the same way) I don't get this error
If I try the update by running a query on the same table, I get no errors.
The system I have is a german Access 2010 on german WinXP and a connection to DB2 LUW v9.7
Is there any set of settings necessary for ODBC to work with access and vice versa?
I have a table structure that I guess could be called a dual one-to-many-to-one, as can be seen in the attached Relationships screen print. Customer loan files are maintained in an AllFiles table, tied to the Customers and Loans tables through the CustomerFiles and LoanFiles tables. Users access the data from an unbound form called FileProcessing, where they can select a customer, and a loan for that customer. The files linked to that customer and loan then appear on a form called Files. However, I need the data on Files to be updateable, and I'm having a hard time coming up with a Files datasource that can be updated. The SQL that retrieves the needed data is:
Code: SELECT AllFiles.* FROM (AllFiles INNER JOIN CustomerFiles ON AllFiles.FileNum = CustomerFiles.FileNum) INNER JOIN LoanFiles ON AllFiles.FileNum = LoanFiles.FileNum WHERE LoanFiles.LoanNum=[Forms]![FileProcessing]![tbLoanNum] AND CustomerFiles.CIFKey=[Forms]![FileProcessing]![tbLoanCIFKey];
I tried creating another query that just had the AllFiles table linked to the above query, but the data still couldn't be updated.
why the first code is working and after adding a few lines it gives me a syntax error. It highlights the AS ETI. I usually work on the query grid, but I read somewhere there is a limit to the length of expression. So I ended up editing the expression in SQL view, but somehow doesn't work.Working before editing:
Code: SELECT [Salaries YTD].[Emp#], [ETI Filter].ETI1, Sum([Salaries YTD].DaysWorked) AS SumOfDaysWorked, IIf([SumOfGross] Between 0 And 2000 And [ETI1]=1000,[SumOfGross]*([DaysWorked]/(DateDiff("ww",[Forms]![PeriodSelector]![FromDate],[Forms]![PeriodSelector]![ToDate],6)*5)*0.5),IIf([SumOfGross] Between 2001 And 4000 And [ETI1]=1000,1000,IIf([SumOfGross] Between 4001 And 6000 And [ETI1]=1000,1000-(0.5*([SumOfGross]-4000))))) AS ETI, DateDiff("ww",[Forms]![PeriodSelector]![FromDate],[Forms]![PeriodSelector]![ToDate],6) AS Weeks, Sum([Salaries YTD].Gross) AS SumOfGross1
I have a query that selects records based on certain flags in each record. I can view the record in datasheet view, but I need to be able to edit the records selected by the query using another form. Is there any way to automate this process?
I'm trying to secure my database so users can't edit tables, forms, reports, queries, etc.I'm splitting the database, making an ACCDE for users:
1. I inserted code to disable the bypass key. 2. I inserted code to hide the Quick Access Toolbar (QAT) in the On_Load sub of the form that opens with the DB. 3. Deselect Navigation Pane, Allow Full Menus and Allow Default Shortcut Menus are deselected 4. Then, I use the immediate window to show the QAT, I then create an ACCDE.
How do I link this ACCDE with the original ACCDB? Am I supposed to delete tables from the front end and link the forms/reports to the back end DB?
I'm using the following code to allow the user to pick a record from a continuous form and edit it in a new window. For some reason my where condition isn't working properly as the edit form always opens to the first record instead of the record associated with the "Edit" button that was pressed.
Code:
Private Sub lblEdit_Click() DoCmd.OpenForm "frmEditPlants", acNormal, , "[PlantID] = " & Me.PlantID, acFormEdit, acDialog End Sub
I have a query where I group by EmpID, so duplicates do not show up. In this query I have two fields with no data. These fields are to be filled in after the query is run in a form. However, these fields are not editable due to the group by feature. I tried two unbound fields, which does allow me to type, but doesn't save the changes once I click out of the field. The field then reverts back to blank.
I have a form for displaying the Club Members info (like Name, Address etc). I'd like on the top right of the total debit of each Member to be displayed. For that reason I construct a Total query. Problem is that when I'm trying to relate the MemberInfo form with this query, all my records are locked due to the restriction that forces a Group By query.
Since in my case the info provided by this query is eitherway only for read puposes (just displaying the Balance) can you suggest me a trick or something to bypass the Access restriction concerning the Group By queries?
I am using a template database that I downloaded from the Microsoft Access template website and have been modifying it and adding new forms and tables etc. I have used the forms wizard to create a number of new forms to edit a number of the tables. The forms are "split forms".I can't seem to get many of the forms to stay the size that I set them to! They seem to have a mind of their own and often when I think that I have sized them correctly, I then open the form and they display in full screen mode or larger!
I want to lock the view of certain tables and queries so that users could not perform any change at their own. Is there any way in VB to protect it with password....
Hi all, I have a search form that pulls data from a query. The data is displayed in a subform. I would like the user to be able to edit the data from the subform. I have set all the allow properties to yes and it still doesn't work. Does this problem have anything to do with relationships.
Thanks to all, this forum has been a great help for me.
I have a form called contractors. It works exactly like I want it but it won't let me edit it. The form is based on a query. I have checked the query as stated to do on some areas of this forum and I am able to change it by typing something in a field and it also updates the form for me but I can't edit the form directly. I have allow edits, allow deletions, allow additions set to yes and I have no locks on it. Any ideas?
I have also checked help in access on this to no avail. I am attaching the database so somebody can hopefully help me.
A few years ago a consultant created a database for my company and trained one person on how to use it. Unfortunately, this person shortly left and the system was never used! I would like to get the system up and running, however I am a complete novice with Access and although I have figured out the basics I am having trouble with the one form that we use to enter data. Two of the drop-down or combo boxes must be completed by the person entering data in order for the record to be saved. How do we turn off this mandatory setting for each combo box? Or how do we add an option to the combo box that at least says N/A if the data enterer does not have the information on hand?
i have created a small application for my assignment using ms access. i apply several function to dis system. initially it works but then i dono why suddenly it came out wif an error sound which mean u cant even edit anything in the form..it sounds ridiculous but dis happened to dis system. i have checked all the properties settings for that form. i compared wif my previous system which i didnt apply the complex function which just pull some data from database. all seems ok wif the settings for the new one...
Hi, I am having a problem with my queries or tables... I am not even sure which of the two I am not doing right. The test query I have written is really a simple one so I am not sure if anything can wrong with it. I have 3 tables with one - one to many relationship and 1 many-to-many relationship (IN access it's 3 entities + 1 relationship tables). All I am trying to is to see "conclusion_id"s associated with "INT_Reg_no" used in query. For example I want to see "conclusion_id" associated with "INT_Reg_no" 1.1. When I put this in I should get 2 conclusion numbers (Conclusion_id 1 and 2) but I only get one (Conclusion_id 2).
the below script in my query is to automatically increase the date by one year, this works fine but i would like to be able to back date the script if necassary.
i have checked the properties and the field is not locked. but it wont let me change the date.
i'm trying to work with this database. i want to know how to change a few things we have a command button that generates a letter i need to edit that letter as it contains names and numbers no longer in the office
