thanks in advance for your help
I have created an Access Front End Database that many people in one of the departments use. Each user has their own copy of the Front End on their Computer. The Back End is on a SQL Server.
On one of the forms I created a Duplicate Record Button using the Wizard in Access. I have ONE user who has trouble using this button.
She uses it to copy records over and over and over. Then she changes just a few pieces of data as needed.
She often gets one of two error messages:
The Clipboard isn't responding, so Commercial Workflow(name of DB) can't paste the Clipboard's contents.
or
The command or action 'PasteAppend' isn't available now.
I have tried to recreate these errors on my computer with my front end. My Front End is the master they copy from. But I can not recreate the error.
I did check a few things on her front-end and my front end and found 1 setting different
On the Clipboard there is an options button and the first setting “Show Office Clipboard Automatically" on my front end is not checked and hers was checked. I changed that and the next day she was still having problems.
I have done a lot of searching on this and I just keep coming up at a dead end. Can anyone out there help me?
I am using some vba code (see below) to put some data into the clipboard for pasting elsewhere.But it seems to fail sometimes, I think it fails when the data is too long.Is there a maximum?
The code below fails on the stmt, "DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy" No specific error msg, just the dreaded "Microsoft Access Must Close...."It seems to happen when the length of the textbox is over 1000 characters.I tried inserting some DoEvents statements, but it made no difference.
Private Sub btnCopy_Click()
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("tblLogs", dbOpenDynaset, dbSeeChanges)
If rst.RecordCount = 0 Then
rst.Close
Set rst = Nothing
[code]....
Is there a way to prevent the col headers from copied to the clipboard when copying a datasheet? When I paste to excel i don't want the headers - ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to copy a caption from a form to the clipboard so that I can later paste it into another application.
The code I have found via a search on this website 1) Clears the clipboard and then 2) copies the caption from a nominated field. 2) doesn't work as I sure I have the statements wrong.
Call EmptyClipboard
Me.B7_DB_GCUH.Caption
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy
I am looking to create a button in access that will allow a field to be copied the the clipboard based on information in a query and then separated by a ";" and then can be pasted in another program.
I have created a database to keep track of membership. In the Member Personal Info Table I have collected their email address's and then created a query "Active Member Personal Info" for Active Members to have their name and Email displayed in the query. Now I am trying to take the 140 members email address and paste it in a gmail BCC line by clicking paste rather than doing each individual record and then copying and pasting.
All,
I've done this time and time again with no issues...but now I'm getting a message when I try to paste in 1918 records, it only sees 983...says my clipboard may be damaged or the data on the clipboard is corrupt, any clue why?
I have linked a SQL table using ODBC and using access to plug in data.
Thanks for any help! This is driving me nuts....

I'm after a macro or something to allow me to map a button on a form so that when it's pressed it copy's a certain field to the clipboard?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to make a template form for a helpdesk, at the bottom would be a "Copy to Cliboard" button that when pressed will copy to clipboard in the format of:
label1 textbox1
label2 textbox2
label3 etc...
I got the jist of it, but got lost somewhere along the way, this is what I have so far:
Code:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Private Function fcopyfields() As String
Dim strapp As String
Dim strapplabel As String
[Code] ....
It's falling apart at the button click.
I would like to place an image file located at e.g. "C:MyImagesimage.png" into the clipboard. I have not been able to figure out how to do this. I have been able to place Text into the Clipboard using the DataObject late binding sub below.
Code:
Public Sub PutInClipBoard(strString As String)
Const DATAOBJECT_BINDING As String = "new:{1C3B4210-F441-11CE-B9EA-00AA006B1A69}"
With CreateObject(DATAOBJECT_BINDING)
.SetText strString
.PutInClipBoard
End With
End Sub
I found the following code to copy the results of a query to the clipboard.
Code:
DoCmd.OpenQuery "DataLoadTemp_qry", acViewNormal, acEdit
DoCmd.SelectObject acQuery, "DataLoadTemp_qry"
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSelectAllRecords
RunCommand acCmdCopy
DoCmd.Close acQuery, "DataLoadTemp_qry", acSaveNo
It works great, except that it is also copying the column headings. Is there any way to copy only the results without the headings?
I'm copying this data to the clipboard because I want to be able to paste it in a program called DataLoad which will load this data into one of our company's legacy systems.
I'm trying to copy the outcome of a query to the clipboard. as follows
DoCmd.OpenQuery "changeboard query", acViewNormal, acEdit
DoCmd.SelectObject acQuery, "CHANGEBOARD QUERY"
RunCommand acCmdCopy
DoCmd.Close acQuery, "Changeboard query", acSaveNo
It doesn't work because in the open query there is nothing selected.
If I select the lines by hand the copy command works fine.
However I can't find the command in VBA to select all the lines in the query.
I would like to be able to join 2 text boxes and then copy them to clipboard. My initial fumbling has had me to joing the 2 text boxes as a string and then set that string as the value of another hidden text box and then copy that text box.
strOut = Me.Title & Me.Description
Me.CopyTxt.Visible = True
Me.CopyTxt.Value = strOut
Me.CopyTxt.SetFocus
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy
Me.Title.SetFocus
Me.CopyTxt.Visible = False
This does work but I would like to format the output if possible to remove the element identifiers? The string copies out as below.
Title Information<div>Description Information</div>
Is it possible to remove the <div> and any other elements that may appear either using my method or another way. Not sure if they are appearing as the Title box is plain text and the description is Rich?
In my database I have a field with contents I want to copy and then paste into Excel. Whilst in development, I've made sure the field is visible so that I can see when it has any content. I have placed a button next to the field that copies its content to the clipboard. This works fine and can be confirmed if I open Notepad and paste the content into it with no issues.
The problem starts when I open Excel. I've tried opening it using another button and manually and the same thing happens when I try and paste the clipboard content into it. It's empty! I can't even directly paste into Notepad once Excel has opened. However, if I go back to the database with Excel already open in the background, I can hit my copy button and the content pastes into Excel with no issues. This proves my code is fine.
I have a form with two Text box fields "Username" & "Password"
I want to create a copy button next to each field that will copy the contents to the clipboard.
The password field has the code:
Code:
Private Sub Command228_Click()
Me!Password.SetFocus
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy
End Sub
The username field has the code:
Code:
Private Sub Command229_Click()
Me!Username.SetFocus
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy
End Sub
The Username copy button for some reason gives me the following error:
Run-time error '438': Object doesn't support this property or method
Why it doesn't like this field?
I know how to put things on to the clipboard, DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy
I just want to view the current contents of the clipboard in access 2003 using vba.
I Found this code whilst searching for a solution:-
Dim DataObj As New MSForms.DataObject
DataObj.GetFromClipboard
MyString = DataObj.GetText
But it needs the Microsoft Forms2 Object Library
This is not in the list of references, how to get it?
Or how to read the clipboard a different way.
I am copying a range from excel (multiple rows) and paste it directly to access table using:
Code : DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdPasteAppend
Sometimes it does not work and I need to use paste special as text.
Is there any way to paste special as text using VBA ?
I work at a hospital and I have been able to copy and paste data from a patient list into an Excel spreadsheet into a list I can customize to track patients I work with. I had a macro that would take the data copied and pasted and organize it in the way I needed it in a design that works for me.
I'm trying to convert this system to Access to give me more control over the data and to try and make the process of creating the list a little more automated. I also have an Access database for "tracking", which is required by hospital management so I was hoping I could use the patient list database to streamline the process of entering interactions into the tracking database.
I'm not sure how to get the copied and pasted patient list into an Access in a way that will let me manipulate it in Access to do what I want it to do without having to add several steps of a) pasting it into Excel, b) importing the spreadsheet into the Access database, and c) cleaning the data that ends up in the final Access table.
Is there a way to import data in a spreadsheet or table format directly from the clipboard, which would allow me to skip Excel altogether? I'm using Access and Excel 2010.
