I'm just trying to implement a "customised error message" that will pop-up if data is entered and it's invalid. (I've created a "query" and a "search" form which these two link together).
View RepliesThe following query runs without issues.
SELECT Payment_Mth, CDate(Payment_mth) AS Expr1
FROM Table1
WHERE (((Payment_Mth) Is Not Null
And (Payment_Mth)<>"Does not apply"
And (Payment_Mth)<>""));
I get a set of data along the following lines
September 2007 01/09/2007
October 2007 01/10/2007
September 2007 01/09/2007
etc.
which is what I want.
However, when I try to filter to show only a particular date, I get an error
SELECT Payment_Mth, CDate(Payment_mth) AS Expr1
FROM Table1
WHERE (((Payment_Mth) Is Not Null
And (Payment_Mth)<>"Does not apply"
And (NBReferral.Payment_Mth)<>"")
AND ((CDate(Payment_mth))=#01/10/2007#));
An 'Invalid use of Null' message is displayed.
What am I missing, here?:confused:

Hi,
I have inherited a database that has suddenly stopped working. The form has been set up to print a report upon the click of a button but it has recently started throwing up an error message. I have attached screen shots.
Can someone help? :mad:
Thank you!!!
I have a Access 2000 database that occasionally has a popup message "Invalid Argument", which prevents me from running any action queries or codes. Also another Access 2000 database that has the same "Invalid Argument" error from which prevents me to import the tables to another database.
Do anybody know WHY does the error happen? WHAT does it mean? and HOW we fix it??
Please help. Thanks so much
I'm having trouble converting text to proper text in Access 2010 using Windows 8.1 as OS.
The message I keep getting is:
The expression you entered contains invalid syntax. You omitted an operand or operator, you entered an invalid character or comma, or you entered text without surrounding it in quotation marks.
The formula I use is:
strconv([field],3)
I seem to be having some major problems with one of our tables.
Recently a table that has been fine for a long time has developed something corrupt, so it seems.
I found that the LAST entry in the table is nothing but #Error in every single field. When I open the table, I get 'Invalid Entry'. Clicking the 'Help' brings me to a page about 'Invalid Argument (Error 3001)'.
I have tried recreating the table, and copying back ALL the entries except for the #Error one... but the new table ALSO gives me the same message.
Has anyone seen this before? Is it corrupt data? Is it a corrupt table structure? What would be the best course of action to save the remaining data and get this table back to up and running?
Thank you all for your help,

I am fairly new to access but so far I have been able to get what i need from it, until now. I am trying to find a way of comparing two sets of data to find out an employee's average productivty.
Table 1 -Hours Worked (by day)
- contains 'name' 'date' and '# of hours' worked
- an employee would enter the hours here on a daily basis
Table 2 - Contracts Keyed (by month)
- contains the number of contracts worked that is derived from seperate system
- this is entered on a monthly basis (so for example: John keyed 30 contracts for the month of January)
- the system i am pulling this info from does not have the ability to pull a daily count of contract per employee, only a range of dates and it then provides the sum for that range (unless I ran a query for each day, for each employee which would take me hours)
- employees dont have access to this system to enter their own # of contracts keyed on a daily basis.
- for entry, so far i have just been putting the first of the month and then the # of contracts.
In a nutshell, this is the calculation I am trying to create:
(Sum of "# of hours" for the month) / (total "# of contracts keyed" for the month) = employees average hourly productivity.
I have tried to do this with various types of queries and reports but with no luck, I get a prompt saying that access can't compare the 2 fields.
Is there a way to compare the data that is entered daily with the data i would enter monthly?
How to create custom error message for duplicate data? I want this custom message at text box before_update event not at form_error .....

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a search query that searches for different results based on 3 criterior. I have set up a form so that the user can input the text into the form and then once the Submit button (that i created) is clicked the query table will be shown.
My question is:
Is it possible to have an error message box appear when i click submit and no data is returned by the search query?
I'm hoping for the message box to say "No corresponding records to your search criteria. Do you want to try again?"
Then the options given in the message box are Yes (where they should be taken back to the search form) and No (Where they are taken to another form).
I have look around in the forums, but I haven't found what I was looking for. I just maybe didn't use the correct search criteria. But anyway this is what I am looking for.
When a certain user Logon into the database. I would like the have a message sent just to that one particular user. Bottom line is. When a report is due and that user is responsible for it, I would like a notification go to that user.
Can this be done and how would one go about this?
Again thanks
It is my understanding that a custom macro was built to pull text data from a file and import it into Access in the appropriate fields. This macro no longer works and will return the following error message:
"License information for this component not found. You do not have an appropriate license to use this functionality in design mode."
It only gives an option to click OK. When you do it shows a box called "Action Failed" that lists the macro name, condition, action name, and arguments with three button to click on the right of the box: "Step" "Halt" and "Continue". It appears that only the "Halt" button is available to be clicked.
Does this sound like an issue with the Access license or whatever license the macro might have? We're trying to decide if it's possible to restore the functionality of the macro.
But how do I have a message box pop up that warns the user he is about to edit an already entered record?
Is there a setting for this in the form design. Or do I need VBA, in which case what form event would I tie the msg box too?
I’m getting an error I can’t understand!
Access says the name I have for my query is not valid. I can’t see why and the help is no help at all!!
Error says:
‘orders_by_project_query’ is not a valid name. Make sure that it does not include invalid characters or punctuation and that it is not too long.
Here is the name of my query
‘orders_by_project_query’
I have also tried:
‘OrdersRptQry’
‘qryOrdersByProject’
All the above get the same result.
The query is a look up on two tables to obtain subtotals for a number of orders.
The SQL from the query in SQL view looks like this:
SELECT orders_table.order_id, Sum(CCur(products_table!unit_price*order_detail_ta ble!Prod_reqd_qty*(1-[order_detail_table.prod.discount])/100)*100) AS Subtotal
FROM products_table INNER JOIN (orders_table INNER JOIN order_detail_table ON orders_table.order_id = order_detail_table.order_id) ON products_table.product_id = order_detail_table.product_id
GROUP BY orders_table.order_id;
Any ideas why I get this error and how to correct it?
Thx,
Kev.
I have a Form based on a Table of Clients, names and addresses etc. One of the records appears to be corrupt in some way because any time I attempt to access this record, either on the Table or in the Form, I receive an error message "Invalid Argument". The database then shows #Error in every Text Field and I am forced to CTRL Alt Del to close the Database. I cannot even access the record in order to delete it. Any ideas anyone? Thanks.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've found a few posts about this subject, on the forum, so I'm guessing that my database (or at least one table therein) has become corrupt.
I've tried the various suggestions I could find (compact and repair, import into a new Db, etc) and none have worked. I have, however, located a version of the database from the day before this error first occurred. I've checked the problematic table and it contains no 'Error#' lines.
The single table affected contains a lot of data and is pretty irreplaceable. I have daily backups, so no information will actually get lost, but if I can't add any new data to it (for fear of corruption) it won't be much use.
1) What causes this problem? I can't seem to find a definite answer to this one.
2) Is there one definite fix I can use to prevent the problem occurring again?
I have a database containing various linked tables and all has been fine for years.
I now have to add some fields to the main table and change some field sizes. I know about the 255 field limit. And I know that an individual record cannot exceed 2K.
BUT, when I simply lower the size of a text field, (i.e., from 40 to 30), I get either the message Too Many Fields Defined or Record Is Too Large.
I am getting this invalid use of bracketing error Set objMyRecordset = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("select itemno from " & Chr(34) & "[" & icitem & "]" & Chr(34))

I have used this in other databases without issue but for some reason this time I keep getting an "Invalid Argument for Function" error.
The basic idea is that I need to insert a record into a table and then return the Key field so that I can use it to populate another table. This was working just fine for a while, then it stopped and naturally I can't think of anything I did to make it not work. I get an Invalid Use of Null error at the bolded step.
