I Cant See A Table's Contents As It Is
Jan 21, 2007sorry for the title. i didnt know what to write.
this is the situation:
i have a form where it populates a table in access (ssmdata) from an oracle table w_ssm_data). this works perfectly.
Then the form read the hole new table in access (ssmdata) to update a specific field.
Problem:
If i open the access table (ssmdata) it is sorted by the flight fields. However, when the form reads the table in order to update the specific field the table seems to not to be sorted by the flight field.
More info:
The ssmdata table in access has many primary keys (flight, departure,arrival,caterer,frequency and aircraft).
If i take a look to the W_ssm_data table in oracle it is not sorted by flight and it is sorted in the same way the form is reading the ssmdata table in access.
example:
table in access:
flight dep arr caterer aircraft frequency
1 a b a 111 67
1 a b a 222 134
2 c s c 111 5
table in oracle:
flight dep arr caterer aircraft frequency
2 c s c 111 5
1 a b a 111 67
65 t h t 252 1
when the update step starts it reads the access table as it looks in oracle. but if i open the table in access it looks sorted by flight.
thx 4 your hlp again, max
Tables :: Normalize Existing Table Containing Data And Copying PK Value To FK In New Table
Nov 21, 2014I am working from an existing database which is just two table. The main table has a massive amount of redundancy and duplication and needs splitting into, at first glance, 5 tables.
After I have run my various make table queries and added a Primary Key and FK field to the new tables how do I populate the FK with the Parent PK.
I thought I could simply add all the fields from the new table and then create an adhoc join in an update query to populate the PK to the FK. When I do this however I get "You are about to update 0 records"
I have tried the table analyzer but it doesn't give the correct options to split the table the way I need.
Any Way To Read CD Table Of Contents?
Oct 23, 2011Any way in MS Access to read the TOC data from an Audio CD? It is I believe in the lead-in part. I have a music database, and would like to be able to read the track data directly from the CD (Title, artist, timing), without having to type it all in again.
I know this can be done, because my CD labelling software extract the data automatically - but can Access do it?
Table Of Contents Off By One Page
May 8, 2014I have some code to create a table of contents/index for a report which has "chapters" which can be added or dropped depending on whether we choose to stock something or not. And I'm getting the strangest issue. The very first "chapter" starts fine on Page 1. But the next item we sell (Chap 2), then starts on Page 3, instead of Page 2. Here's what's strange. Every other item is then one page off. Below is my code.
Code:
Option Compare Database
Dim db As Database
Dim TocTable As Recordset
Dim intPageCounter As Integer
Function InitToc()
'Called from the OnOpen property of the report.
[Code] ....
The InitToc fx is called upon the opening of the pricebook, the UpdateToc fx is called upon printing. There's something in here where I think I'm calling the functions incorrectly, but I'm not sure quite what the error is.
How To MessageBox Contents Of A Table With A Button
Feb 27, 2007This may seem a very simple question, but I really don't know how to do it. Basically, I want to MessageBox contents of a table with a button. I have a table called Map, and has two fiels: Column Number and Description. When a button is pressed, then I want a messagebox to come up and show the column number and the description of a single field. Although I know it is very wrong, here is the code I used for this (r![column Number] = 4 is meant to be the forth column number in the table):
Dim d As Database
Set d = CurrentDb
Dim r As Recordset
Set r = d.OpenRecordset("Map")
r![column Number] = 4
MsgBox "Column No: " & r![column Number] & ". Description: " & (r![Description])
By the way, there are seperate buttons for seperate fields. It is DAO as well
Thanx in advance
Selecting A Name Based On Table Contents
Apr 25, 2008Hope this works, The table is as follows, ish
Name1 y/n1 y/n2 y/n3 y/n4 y/n5
a...........y......y....n.......n.....n
b...........n......n....y.......n.....y
c...........y......n....n.......n.....n
d...........n......n....n.......n.....y
e...........y......y....y.......n.....y
f............n......y....n.......y.....y
g...........y......y.....y......y.....y
what i need to be able to do is take a form/query answer some questions, y/n1= y/n2= y/n3= ......
Then off the back of this be able to pull out the correct item from column name1.
But i don't need an exact match on all columns. If i am only interested in y/n2=y i need to display all matches
My head says the following If y/n2=y and y/n3=y Then Name1 = e and g
or another example if y/n2=y and y/n4=y and yn5=y Then name1 = f and g
if a y appears in more columns it doesn't matter but it has to be in all those columns i am looking at
can anyone suggest the simplest way forward on this.

Copying Records To A New Table
Feb 16, 2005I am trying to help a new employee with an MS Access 2000 problem. The db was created years ago, and the main table (permits) needed some major changes. She created a new db with a table that has all the same fields as the old db, but many new ones as well. We want to now import the data from the old db's "Permit" table to the new db's "Permit" table. All the field names are correct, but we keep getting errors trying to import and export. There are approximately 940 records.
Is there an easy way to do this? Thank you!

Copying Data In One Table To Another-how To?
Jan 12, 2007Hi:
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

Sep 14, 2012I have Access 2010 tables linked to Sharepoint 2010 lists and my table becomes disconnected when I run a delete query on the table in Access.

Queries :: Parameter Query - How To Get Table Contents Between Dates
Feb 3, 2014I have a parameter that I need to get a table contents between dates. In the query:
Birthdate: XXTable: criteria as follows: Between [Enter Start Date] and [Enter End Date:]
When run it gives me the Error - ! This expression is type incorrectly, or its too complex to be evaluated. For example, a numeric expression may contain too many complicated elements. Try simplifying the expression by assigning parts of the expression to variables
I have tried almost everything. The formatting of the Birthdate is x/x/xxxx or shortdate. Will this affect the input thus affecting the outcome of the query.
Removing Parentheses And Its Contents From Access Table Field
Jun 18, 2014I am very new to access less than 1 week since i started trying to build an horse racing database, i am trying to link data from 2 different sources via the horses name however one source displays this with the horses country of origin in parenthesis foe example FRANKEL(GB) and the other source displays the name as just FRANKEL, to be honest i haven't yet tried the link but guess it will fail.
I am therefore looking to get rid of the parentheses and their contents from an access table field and create another field without them.
In Excel i use the formula B1:
=TRIM(REPLACE(A1,FIND("(",A1&"("),FIND(")",A1&")")-(FIND("(",A1&"(")-1),"")) and that works fine.
I guessed the solution for Access would be newname:
TRIM(REPLACE([frhorse.NAME],FIND("(",[frhorse.NAME]&"("),FIND(")",[frhorse.NAME]&")")-(FIND("(",[frhorse.NAME]&"(")-1),""))
But this doesn't work as in returns undefined function "FIND" in expression error.

Copying Values Of Fields From One Table To Another.
Dec 14, 2005Ok so here is the problem I need help with,
I have a prices table that stores all the different price changes for each part I have in my Parts table what I need to figure out how to do is to copy the "Last" price for that part from the price table into the Price field of the Parts table or have some way of updating it automatically either by macro or what not - example:
Price Table:
PriceID (PKey)
PartID (Connected to Part Number ID)
Price
Price Added( Date & Time when price was added so I can groupby "Last" or "Max" in the Price Query I have made)
------------------------
Parts Table:
PartID (Pkey)
Part Number
Price
-------------
Now how do I take the value my Price query gives me for "Last" or "Max" Price using the last date for that parts price and have it automatically get copied into the Parts Table price?
Thanx
Tables :: Copying A Table From One Linked DB To Another
Dec 3, 2013I am looking to copy one exceptionally large table to another. I can use VBA to copy the entire Report2013.accdb to Report.accdb while compacting at the same time. This is very fast and works well. However once it's copied I need to rename the table tblReport2013 to tblReport. None of these table are in the accdb that I am running the scripts from FrontEnd.accdb. I am working very hard to keep the data tables under the 2 GB limit, which is why linking and keeping the data separate is necessary. There is the chance that Report2013 will be on the network while tblReport will be local to the user, and may or may not be a subset of the Report2013.
I have considered a number of options:
DoCmd.Rename - I can't seem to tell it a database location
I could try
docmd.copyobject - and see if it keeps the file size the same or smaller then the original.
I could just write the sql statement and copy the data that way, and compact the table afterwards. The trouble with doing the transfer that way is hitting the 2GB limit, before I can compact/compress the newly imported data.It just seems odd to have to find another solution when all I really want to to rename a table and ensure the new new is still linked as a separate table.
