Tables :: Copy And Paste Text Field To Multiple Records
Aug 10, 2015I have been unable to find a simple way to copy a text entry from a Table Field and paste it to multiple records in Datasheet view.The Toolbar 'Paste' procedure copies to the selected record only and I am unaware of how to select multiple records, as per a spreadsheet procedure.

Mar 26, 2006OK, here is a weird one, at least it seems weird to me. I have a field on a table, or query result, doesn't matter which, and it looks like this:"55264"25468"4562"123etc, etc.Now I need to copy that and paste it into the notepad in Windows. When I do that the pasted data looks like this:"""55264""""25468""""4562""""123"I have looked at it on the clipboard and it also looks like the above. I really need this data to paste to the notepad just like it is stored on the table (with one double quote only). It's one of those strange sounding things, please do not ask me to explain why...I just need it like that.Why the heck does the extra quote get added to the front and one get placed on the end?Test it yourself and see.Thanks

Nov 20, 2012I am trying to copy a table and paste as another name. I do this all the time with this table as it is a process I have to do. It is giving me a -1524 error. I also tried to export it to another database and it won't allow that either. I get the same error.
I have tried this with other tables and it does fine.
Linked Table, Cannot Copy/paste New Records
Feb 16, 2006I have an Access database with linked tables from Sybase SQL Anywhere, via an ODBC data source. I have just linked the tables recently, all the data used to be in native Access tables. It is fairly common for members of our team to open these tables in datasheet view, and copy/paste several records to create new records, then edit a few fields on the new records. This used to work fine with native Access tables, but when we try it with the linked tables we either get an ODBC error - "primary key value already exists" or the new records show up with #Deleted.
The root of the problem is this: In the old Access tables, the primary key was an autonumber field, and Access was smart enough to assign new ID's when you copy/pasted records. In the linked table, the primary key is type "Number" in Access, and Access is not smart enough to let Sybase assign new ID's when you copy/paste records in datasheet view. Access is trying to force the existing ID's into the primary key field, and Sybase says "too bad so sad".
Of course, I could just write some quick append queries to copy/paste the data. And in the short term, that's exactly what I will have to do. But is there any way, long term, to allow members of my team to do it the "quick & dirty" way by copy/pasting in datasheet view? I have tried to change the primary key to an autonumber field in design view, but Access doesn't allow that. Is there a way to do it in code, or a way to force Access to allow Sybase to always handle the primary key field?
Cannot Export, Import, Copy/paste, Rename Table With Data!
Feb 22, 2006Hello everyone.
I've been in a new position for a new company for less than three weeks, and I need some help.
The Access database that we use has been in operation since 2002, and it has never been Compacted/Repaired (I asked my coworkers and supposed IT people, and they said "what's that?").
After adding *one* new field, I've reached the horrific "error 3190" (max 255 fields).
I've tried all of the following, allowing at least 12 hours for them to run, but I cannot:
export the data to Excel
import the data into a new database
copy/paste the records (because there are 12100+ and the max is 9500, I think; and because of the way the dd/mm/yy converted itself to dd/mm/yyyy)
or rename the table with the data.
Please, someone help me.
Copy & Paste From Access Table To Excel Without Header Info

Does anyone know how to exclude the header information when copying a record from an Access table and pasting it into Excel. When I paste into Excel, it is also pasting the header information from Access which I do not want. I only want the data to be pasted.
Thanks for the help in advance.

Tables :: How To Remove HTML Tags Displayed In Table When Copy / Paste Data
Jan 19, 2015When I copy data from Outlook or MS Word that contains bullets or other HTML formatted text, into MS Access text control, the HTML tags are displayed in the tables.
The memo field in the table is set to Rich Text and so is the text control on the form.
Below is an example of the data I'm copying from Outlook email:
Fire Alarm Activation
Actual/Smoke Present
False
Planned Drill/Testing
Evacuation
2. Utilities/Power/Communication Failure
Now, below is what it looks like in my table or output in a report:
<ol>
<ol>
<li><strong>Fire Alarm Activation </strong></li>
</ol>
</ol>
<ul>
[Code] ....
How can I copy and paste and remove the html tags?
General :: Copy Single Record In A Table And Paste It Predefined Number Of Times
Sep 25, 2012I would like to be able to copy a single record in a table and then paste this record a pre-defined number of times 10,20,30 depending on requirements. The reason I need to do this is that I want to set up a number of identical records that can easily be amended into unique records. This will vastly reduce the amount of work and time spent entering records individually.
The only way that I have been able to achieve this is to copy and transfer the master record into Excel, and then copy the row and paste it into a range of cells. Copy the range of cells back from Excel and then paste this range back into the Access table.
This works but is long winded; what I would like to know is is there a simply way of achieving this.
Prevent "you Are About To Paste # Rows Into A New Table" Message
Nov 11, 2006Hello there! This might not be the right section to post in but it's regarding tables. Basically I have some SQL statements that copy data to a new table, which is written in VBcode and operates on the click of a button.
Basically the only problem is the messages:
"You are about to paste # rows into a new table/table"
"The existing table <name> will be deleted before you run the query"
The kind of message depends on the way I organise the SQL (either using it to append data (as in INSERT INTO tablename SELECT blah blah) or overwrite (SELECT blah blah INTO tablename).
I'd rather use the latter because it facilitates the desired wiping of all previous data and replacing it with fresh records. However I don't want to have to click "yes" every time this is done? Is there some VBcode perhaps, like the On Err code that I could use to get access to not pop up these messages? :D

Only trouble is that I have one field in the table that is dependant on the parent table. [The customers email address which I populate with a query/combo box. There could be many, depending who the order was for.]
Q: What function could I use after the paste funtion to ammend that field automatially setting it to 'null'
Q: I looked into WM_PASTE but I'm really struggling!
Many thanks

Copy And Paste Control At Runtime
Feb 24, 2008Hi Guys,
I'm trying to make a report where i will have a variable number of charts. My approach is to have one "template" chart, and copy and paste it at runtime, and then alter each new chart's properties (data source, etc) to suit
My question, and i'm sorry if it's basic, is how do i copy and paste my first chart (called "Chart1") as another control named "Chart2"?
thx for the advice

Copy/Paste Command On A Form
Jul 25, 2006Copy/Paste
I have a textbox on a form that automatically shows the current date. Below that, I have 3 other textboxes for dates (each representing a step in a process). Often, the same date is imputed into each of these boxes. I would like to have an “Autofill” command button that would take the date in the first box and place it in the other three. This is so basic it’s hard. My usual searches turn up nothing. Any suggestions welcome.
Disabling Copy And Paste Function
Sep 22, 2006Hi there,
I am a database designer for a UK Insurance company and have recently needed to rebuild our complaints database. One of the problems with the previous database was that staff were copying text from an application designed by Pacific Solutions (PACSOL). When the data was pasted into our Complaints database, it was causing some serious issues that made the database crash. This had started to affect people's confidence in our ability through no fault of our own. We then found out that this was due to the character set of PACSOL not being supported by access.
What we would like to do in the new database is prevent users from copying and pasting text into the system. Perhaps by displaying an error message when they press CTRL+V or do edit - paste.
Does anyone know how this can be done?
Thanks
Gareth

Access 2003 Copy Paste Problem
Mar 27, 2007I have several Access 2003 databases that the Copy Paste functions become disabled (grayed out) on a random basis. If I reboot, copy paste are active until they are used once or twice and then they become disabled. This happened on a client´s windows xp system and my windows 2000 system. Not sure, but it may be related to the amount of data in the copy buffer.
Has there been a recent access update that causes it to not clear the copy buffer? If so, how can I clear it without having to reboot?

Copy And Paste Security Permissions From Copies Of A Db
Jul 11, 2007I have to make a new copy of a db starting with a blank db and importing all the objects into the blank. (Corruptions issues).
When a blank db is made, and the objects imported into it, the security permissions do not copy over. The only way I know how to get the security permissions back is to redo them in the new copy. It's a big db. Lots of time. Ugh.
Is there any way to copy and paste the security permissions from one db to another?
Thanks
