Damaged Clipboard (copying From Excel Into Access)
Nov 14, 2007
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 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 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 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?

I have a field in a table that we copy the text from an email into so they can be associated with a client. These could be many paragraphs.
All is fine when I copy right from the email in Outlook into the field in Access. The email is copied exactly as it looks.
To make my life "easier" I do multiple at a time by copying the info into Excel and the copying multiple records into the Access table at once. Saves me having to keep searching for what client the record should be attached to.
But when I do this second method the email in the Access field looks like one big long sentence. Kind of makes it difficult to read at a glance.
I copied the data out of the Access field and into word to check if the returns were still there. They were.
I'm guessing that it has something to do with when I copy it into Excel the individual lines are no longer returns but line breaks. And then Access gets confused.
If not, I'll just instead of putting them in Excel I'll put them directly in Access from now on.

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 am using Microsoft Access97 database with my visual basic application. At one time many users are connected with it & use it, also the application works for 24 hours & some time one user some time many.
The file size is about 90 MB, so not a small database.
The question is, this database goes corrupt every 2-3 days, then I have to stop all the users & repair the database file.
I want to ask why this damage occurs.

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 have a database built using Microsoft Access 97-SR2. I want to copy it to another computer (my office computer). I was successful in burning the file to a CD-R disc. However, when I run the database from the disc, a message appears saying its READ ONLY-it apparently makes it Read Only automatically. I want to be able to change and edit the data and the controls, ie. forms, reports, etc. on the other computer. How can I transfer the database my other computer, without it becoming Read Only?
Any help would be appreciated

Hi all,
I have a database stored in a folder, and this folder can be accessed through a Network.
Is there a way to protect users from copying this folder to other areas? That is I would like to restrict access from users copying the folder where the database is stored.
Thanks for any suggestions and help.

Greetings. I have the following problem:
I have a list of about 200 crops on a column, and for each crop I have 6 information (income, amount of land, season, etc.) in the following 6 columns. I have this information for about 100 households in 6 villages.
I am now starting to put these info in the computer, and it is an enourmous task. I thought that one way to do it is design a form in Access, and have one file per village. I then want to analyse the data at the household level for each village, and also analyse the data at the village level (after calculating village averages).
I want to recreate the form I used to interview farmers in Access, but I can't figure out how to make Access automatelly have 7 columns in form view (the first with the name of the crop, the next 6 with the information: income, etc.). The idea is to reproduce as closely as possible the form I used to interview the farmers, so as to facilitate the data-entry.
Does anybody know how to let Access automatically sort all the fields into 7 columns? Of course I can design the form manually (putting each field individually in its right place), but then I have 7 x200 fields to move, and it would take a huge amount of time. I can't believe that Access can't do this automatically, but I can't figure out how.
I then plan to transfer the info for analysis to SPSS. Does anybody foresee a problem?
Do I make sense? If anybody can help, I would be very grateful. This is actually very urgent, because I am going to pay somebody to do it, but I have to tell her how to do it over the week-end. Thank you very much!!

I'm currently creating an interface program for a MS Access database. I've only used Access once in the past but used other DB's a handful of times so I didn't have any trouble getting the general program created. My issue arose when I tried to make it so that the users needing to use the program can just copy the .exe and the .mdb files and use it.
The program doesn't require users to share the database but to store their OWN programs information in their OWN database, so basically each needs to have their own database with the exact same design (but different data). The original plan was to just get them to copy over a near empty .mdb with the design set up and have them slowly create their own dataset with it. However, upon copying these files between my computer and others it ends up allowing my interface program to retrieve data from the DB but not write any new entries to it. All security permission on the file itself are set to allow read/write to everyone so I'm not sure what's causing this. Is there any other security settings I should worry about? Everything I could find within access seemed to be set so that it could be used freely so I'm not sure what the problem is. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. - I apologize if there is already a related topic in existence, I am new to these boards and tried to search beforehand for any information on this topic but came up empty handed so decided to start my own topic about this problem.

I am using Excel and Access 2010.
I have an excel spreadsheet with 8 tabs. They are all in the same format and column order. They are employees grouped by region. My ultimate goal is to merge all of these onto one excel tab, relatively instantly. I created a master tab and tried doing array formulas and Vlookups, it worked but my spreadsheet was way too slow.
My solution? Import and link them to an Access database, step complete. Create an XML export then import into Excel.
My problem? The only way to update the excel tab with the combined tabs is to save the excel file after changes, go back into Access, re-export to XML, then go back into excel and refresh the data.
My questions, is there any way to automate this process to the point that I can change excel, save, then hit refresh on my excel tab with the XML import to auto-update?

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]....

I 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

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.

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.
