Copying Data Without The Header Row
Apr 6, 2008
Hello All,
Does anybody know a away of copying access data into other applications without the header row. An example being if you copy access data into excel it includes the header row in the spreadsheet. I often have to copy access data into industrial application software but usually paste into excel first (to get rid of the header rows) then from excel into the application. I would like to eliminate this step if I could but not sure how to copy without the header row.
Regards
Daryl

I have form named home page in this homepage form in the form header i have inserted some fields from some tables like province, district, community etc. these fields are unbound and are used for filtering purposes, when i select a province all districts related to that province displayed and when i select a a district all related communities displayed, there is a one to many relationship between district table and community table,
What I want is, when i select a district on the form header(it is unbound as i explained before) of this homepage form, the DistrictID should appear in community subform under DistrictID(as there is a one to many relationship between district and community) .
For more clarification find the snap shot attached...

Hello there, I'm having a problem very much like the one described by this user (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=113742&highlight=SQL+blank+spaces) where an SQL statement I am using to read data from one table and copy it to another is filling the remaining field space with blanks.
I didn't notice until a VBA module I worked on later on which was to read data from the new table and copy the selected record into a form said it could not find the records. The code:
Do Until blnFound = True Or rs.EOF
'DEBUG: answer = MsgBox("ok", vbYesNo)
'DEBUG: MsgBox rs("Account Name")
If rs("Account Name") = strAName Then
MsgBox "DEBUG: FOUND " & rs("Account Name")
blnFound = True
End If
rs.MoveNext
Loop
The record selector just goes straight to EOF because rs("Account Name") never matches strAName (as strAname has all those damned spaces after the useful data).
I wondered if perhaps there was some way to use the code in the other thread to read the length of useful data and then chop off the garbage spaces afterwards, but I'm worried it would be incredibly slow when running through the thousands of records. Also, the field has legitimate spaces in between words (most of the account names are two or three words in length).
The SQL statement responsible is as follows:
strASQL(i) = "INSERT INTO " & strTableName & "([CAccount No], [Short Name], " & _
"[Account Name], [Telephone], [Fax], [Contact Name], " & _
"[Mail address1], [Mail address2], [Mail address3], [Mail address4], " & _
"[Analysis1], [Analysis2], [Analysis3])" & _
" SELECT [CAccount No], [Short Name], " & _
"[Account Name], [Telephone], [Fax], [Contact Name], " & _
"[Mail address1], [Mail address2], [Mail address3], [Mail address4], " & _
"[Analysis1], [Analysis2], [Analysis3] " & _
"FROM tblCustomer WHERE [" & strField(i) & "] LIKE '" & strValue(i) & "';"
strASQL, strField and strValue are arrays and this SQL statement runs in a loop, as this is part of a search form for multiple possible entries. It all works fine except it always adds those damned spaces :D
Any suggestions?? Cheers.

im creating a fault logging databse, i have a form that shows all the "machines" details, (including its previous faults in a subform)
i have another form for inputting new faults.
what i want to be able to do is when you click on the "log new fault" the form will open up with some of the same details as the machine i was just looking at. e.g. it will auto copy over the "machine number" and "machine serial"

I have already asked this question before, but only one person responded, and it was not what I was looking for.
I would like to create a code that takes(copies) each record's data from a field and paste it into another existing field within the same table. I have about 2000 records... Your help will be highly appreciated.
It will have to be a VBA code or macro because I have to alter the strings that are copied before they are pasted into the other field.

Hi:
I am looking for some guidance in doing the following:
I have a tableO that contains a list of objects that have associated attributes, specifically a list of system_names (object) and the associated attributes (additional fields in the table) that include port_name, port_direction. Think of each one of the records as a template that will supply data to another table, called the Instance table (tableI). The concept is that the user can populate the template with various objects and associated ports, and direction.
The table cols are;
PK|FK|system_name|port_name|port_direction|
The data for this table is manually entered via an associated form.
At some later time, the user want to make a copy of an object(e.g. a record in tableO) by populating Table I (the instance table). The first few fields of tableI are named identical to tableO. Table I contains additional fields that further refine the template, by adding a object_property field, and a port_direction_property field.
Table I looks like:
PK|FK|system_name|port_name|port_direction|prop1|p rop2
The forms interface allows the user to fill in the fields in the TableI (intance table) directly, or, lets the user scroll through the list of objects in the template table, and chose a template, copy the fields:system_name|port_name|port_direction into the same fields in table I, and then add values to prop1 and prop 2 manually.
I made the combo box control that will list the objects from the object column of the template table (table O) and make the desired selection. I have a radio button adjacent to the combo box that when clicked, will copy the selected record and designated fields from the template object table (tableO), into the same fields of the instance table (table I). The instance table is displayed on an adjacent form.
After the fields are copied to the instance table, the user can type in the data into the additional fields (e.g. prop_1, prop_2), and complete the record.
I do not know how I can do the 'copy' from tableO to table I when the radio button is pushed. I know to allow an action when the radiobutton is 'clicked'. Table O and tableI are not currently related.
Can you provide some guidance?
Thanks a lot for your time

Hi,
I'm looking to include a button on a form that opens a new entry in another table and copies some field entries from the first table into the second table. I tried an append query, but it seems to be unable to be displayed in a form. I just want to copy data from one form to another. Thanks.

HI all,
i have a form THE OREDER FORM and on it there is a subform that stores a list of codes and corresponding products for a particular order.
Now what happens is that sometimes ORDERS have the same product codes, so what I wish is to see if it is possible in same way or another to copy the data on the subform to create the next record as the previous one, and thus avoiding re-choosing all the products.
any help and ideas will be appreciated thanks

This is surely just going to be a simple dim statement or code.I have 2 forms, one is plancontrol and the other is contacts. The plancontrolform holds a record of contacts for different forms - the contacts form is merely a seperate form to choose which contacts you want to add. (it was to messy keeping it all on one)The contacts form uses cascading combo boxes to choose a contacts. This all works fine but after a contact has been chosen, i want to (through a command button) add it to a viewable list. Once the user has selected all the contacts they want they can close the contacts form. The names will be automatically entered into the plancontrol form. This is not my normal type of database as it is linked to Otulook, therefore some of the rules i abide by i cannot!!Any ideas? Should i (and how do i) keep adding the names to plancontrol as i go along, or just do it all in one go at the end? p.s. plan control is a continous form.thanksKev

Hi,
i need help regarding copying previous data in a table (as a cloning method).
i have a form with continous records. near each record, a button was created that opens in another form which contains various fields.
in order to facilitate time, i created a button on the second form to be able to copy previous data for the respective records on the first form.
but the problem happens if there are 3 fields all of them have to be filled in to be able to perform the copy operation.
for example:
port = rs!port
vessel1= rs!vessel1
vessel2 = rs!vessel2
rs.movenext
rs.edit
all fields must be filled that is port, vessel1, vessel2...and if only port and vessel1 field is filled, this cannot be copied for the other records.
can anyone give me suggestions about how can i make it in a way that it copies data irrelevant of what fields have been entered.
any help will be much appreciated.
thanks a lot.

I have a form Based on a tables called:-
TBLInvoice which contains to fields relative to the question
UseDefaultDescOfServices = Yes/No Type
DescriptionOfServices = Long Text Type with Rich Text Enabled
And second table called TBLCustomerPOs which contains a field
DefaultDescriptionOfServices = Long Text Type with Rich Text Enabled
What I am trying to do is if the UseDefaultDescOfServices = Yes then copy the data in DefaultDescriptionOfServices to DescriptionOfServices and make the field read only and turn off the boarder on the field. If it set to no then the user can enter his own data, turn on boarder and make the field editable.
However I am failing at the first hurdle, i.e. I cannot copy the data. Below is what I have tried to do but it doesn’t do anything.
If [TBLInvoice]![UseDefaultDescOfServices] = -1 Then
[TALInvoice]![DescriptionOfServices] = [TBLCustomerPOs]![DefaultDescriptionOfServices]
End If

I have a field that has a description of the project I'm working on, which has client information on it. I want to take all 600 of those records and copy them to fields in the same table, so that I can remove the client information, which will allow me to pull whichever of those two I need when I run a query.

I have two identical access databases. I copied the master file to my desktop to work on it while someone else was in the shared file. I edited about a hundred rows in the Data Entry table (the records exist in both files), and now I want to copy those changes back over to the master file without messing up any of the other data. I'm not sure what the other people changed in the file, I just know what records I have that need to be copied over. Again, they exist in both files, I just want to overwrite the records in the other file with my updated records without affecting other data.

Ok, I'd like to appologise first as I wasn't sure that this question/problem would fit appropriately into the "Forms" forum, and also for the length of this post.
In the database I'm currently building, I have a form that is used for adding new product purchases for a given customer. So far, after much googleing and and head racking, I've managed to get everything in working order, save this one problem I can't solve.
The form uses the following SQL to populate its field list;
SELECT Products.*, [Expense Codes].[Montant de Paquet] FROM [Expense Codes] INNER JOIN Products ON [Expense Codes].[Expense Code ID]=Products.[Expense Code ID] WHERE (((Products.[Commencez Date])>=Date()));
Sorry for the french text, this is for use by a French company
On the form I have a combo box that lists the product packages available (combo 1 for reference), Prod 1, Prod 2 and Prod 3. This is a field in the products table which is linked to a seperate table called Expence Codes. This table holds my master list of product codes, and their off the shelf price in a field called 'price'.
By using the above SQL, I have the price field ("field 1" for reference) on my form auto update when ever the value combo 1 changes. This is working as I would like it to.
Now for the issue I'm having. I would like to take the value from field 1 to be copied to a field in my payments table, this is to facilitate a final billing value being correctly calculated and invoice being created. However, I'm at a loss as to how to acomplish this.
I have thought of using an update query to add this information to the payments table, as the relivent record will already be created, but Im not sure if this is the right way to go. So any ideas on what I'm doing wrong, could do better or need to do are more than welcome.
Thanks for reading this far and I await any replies :)

I have linked a SQL table to my ms access database. In order to view the SQL table as read-only and still be able to update the access table I have setup a form with a subform.
I know it would be a dublication of data but is there a way thru code of copying the data on the subform to my access table. I was hoping I could put a button on the form that would copy this data. My idea is after the copy is done all the information I need will be in my access table. I'm new to this linking idea and am worried I will only have half the information I need if the link breaks etc.
Thanks

I currently have a form with the below fields (example names)
FRMFormName001
Field001
Field002
Field003
Field004
RPTReportName001
Once the info is filled out we click a button that converts it into a report and once the information is confirmed correct you have to click another button Email it off, this is currently done by a macro creating the report as a attachment PDF File.
The system has now changed and they now want the details in the body of an Email, is it possible to make the details be copied straight into an Email body by a simple macro button click or similar?
