Changing Source Database String On Append.

Feb 12, 2007

Hello,

I think i've done this before but I can't seem to remember the process so any help would be great. What im trying to accomplish here is I have a database that will be updated(new data appened) to on a daily basis from many other databases, but the data that is to be appened can come from various destination drives ie (C: drive, D:drive, CD, Thumbdrive, etc). I set up a dialog box that prompts the user to select the source database, but im not sure how I can store that source destination string and update my append query with that source database string. I believe there is a way to do this. Am I making any sense? Any help would be so great. Thank you in advance.

Forms :: Changing Format Of Field Based On String Length

Jun 11, 2014

I have a continuous form that displays data from a table. What I am trying to accomplish is to change the format of the field if the string length is equal to 11, to "@@@-@@@-@@@@-@". Otherwise if it is greater or less than 11 then no format.

I have tried it using code:

If Len(Me.FormFieldName)=11 Then
Me.FormFieldName.Format = "@@@-@@@-@@@@-@"
End If

Is it even possible and if so is my syntax correct or am I way off base?

String Length.

Aug 19, 2005

I have a fax number field iwhich has a mask. +(000)-00-000-000 in a table of many records.
The problem is that every record has a number in the first part of country code +(001)which must have come there by mistakes, few records have complete and true fax numbers.

I need a query that can Update this Fax_Number field where the length of the string is less than 7 digits.
Some thing like UPDATE Contacts SET Contacts.Fax_Number = ""
WHERE ((Len("Fax_Number")>"6"));

How can i do this. Thanks.

How To Split Up This String

Sep 15, 2005

I have a string:

Cars > Car Import > Car Import: Car Import

The first section is the Category, the second is the Product, the third is the SubProduct and the fourth is the keyword.

What is the best way to split each of these words into its own variable? I think I can do the first and end one but not the Car Import and Car Import one.

Thanks,

Dave

I have a 67 binary code string produced from a query which concatenates these 1's and 0's.

What I need to do is have access decide what a particular string value/range is and return the process name. e.g

10100000000000000000000000000000000001000010000000 00000000000000001.The process name would be COMP UNRESOLVED MSA

00000000000000000111010000000110000000000000000000 00000000000000001

The process name would be MSA NEW

There could be about 60 different Process Names

Need Help With String Formatting

Dec 15, 2005

Hey everyone, I need some help with formatting a string for use with the DoCmd.RunSQL() method. I can't figure out how the hell VB deals with escape characters for the purpse of variables inside strings. I have this line right now.

strSQL = "INSERT INTO OS (OS) VALUES(" + OS.Value + ")"


This is supposed to insert one row into the "OS" Table, in the "OS" field. In my form there is a textbox called "OS" and I'm trying to insert that value into the DB table.

Two things.
1) Yes, I know, I have a lot of things named "OS"
2) Yes, I know I don't need to use a string here, but I'm just presenting this is an abbreviated example, in my full program I do in fact need a string.

String To Date

Jan 16, 2007

I have just inherited a database that has dates stored as strings ex.: 01/01/01. I really do not have time to add a new field and convert the string date to date format (this would cause a lot of rewrite to the application that is using this table). I am trying to use the 'between' to display records that are between specific dates. Also, I am using Cold Fusion as the front end, if that makes any difference. Below is an example I thought might work but did not:

<cfquery name="acty_due_month" datasource="customer">
SELECT acty_end_dt
FROM activity
Where DateValue(Format([acty_end_dt], "MM/DD/YY"))=10/30/05
</cfquery>

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

i have a string of numbers seperated by commas stored in my database. i need to count how many numbers there are in each string and then display all the results with less than 36 numbers contained.

String Searching

Mar 20, 2006

I have a problem with an SQL query that is used to create a report, the query itself works fine, however I need to get it to do something extra. Basically we have a column that contains 1-3 letters. The letters are A, B and C. The query searches the database and returns result depending on which of the letters we entered. We do this using the like statment -:

SELECT * FROM TableUser WHERE UserType LIKE B

So the above SQL statement returns all entries with the letter B in the column UserType. Also we my need to search for AB, which returns all entries with AB and ABC. The problem is that we sometimes need to search for AC, which should return the values AC and ABC. The problem is that it only returns the values AC and not ABC. I know why it does this as it is searching for a string like 'AC', I am just not sure how to get round the problem. Is there a way of searching the string for the Value AC so that it returns the entries AC and ABC.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Cheers
Andy

Search A String...

Mar 25, 2006

I'm trying to create a query that searches the string in a field, for a substring that the user specifies when the query is run. This is the SQL code:

SELECT tblStatement.Date, tblStatement.[Payment Type], tblStatement.Details, tblStatement.[Paid Out], tblStatement.[Paid In]
FROM tblStatement
WHERE (((tblStatement.Details) Like "**"))
ORDER BY tblStatement.Date;

between those two asterixes on the WHERE line, I'd like a string that the user has been prompted for. I've tried this:

WHERE (((tblStatement.Details) Like "*[Enter a String]*"))

But that fails to work, I guess because its in quotations. If I simply had Like [Enter a String], then I get the prompt, but I'll need to enter a string which exactly matches what I am looking for. In other words, I need a query which will search say, "abcdefg" for the user defined input: "abc", which will return that result. I just dont know how to get this to work :s
