I need to append some rows into a table, before I add these rows i need to delete all of the old rows.
I can't use a Make Table query because I am updating a linked table in another database.
So how can I (automatically) delete all rows in that table before or during the append process.
Thanks

I´m trying to improve my appl. but I´m stuck trying to figure out how to append multiple rows on a table using the Append query.
My problem comes since I have 4 tables with the following fields:
1) Orders
OrderID (number)
CustomerID (number)
Date (date)
etc...
2) OrderDetails
OrderDetailID (number)
OrderID (number)
ProductID (number)
QuantitySold
UnitPrice
etc...
3) TmpOrders
OrderTmpID (Autonumber)
CustomerID (number)
Date
etc...
4) TmpOrderDetails
OrderDetailTmpID (Autonumber)
OrderID (number)
ProductID
QuantitySold
etc...
The problem comes since the Tmp tables are used just to record temporarly the information before the transaction is completed.
Whe the salesman at the desk finish the sale, a command button is presseed and an append query runs to transfer the data from Tmp tables to the Definitive tables. Another query (Delete) is excuuted inmediately after the append qry. and it deletes the information recorded on Tmp tables.
I need to reset the autonumber or create a field that records the line number so I can add up to the Maximum OrderDetailID found on the definitive table, but the problem is how to create the "controlled" autonumber.
Please help.
Hello,
I have an append query attached to a text box called client on a form, and every time I enter data into this text box and click the next text box last name I get this error from microsoft office Access that says
(You are about to append 0 rows)
(Are you sure you want to append selected rows?) I click yes and every thing to work fine. I just wish this error message would go away.
I'm using Access 2003.
Thanks--Any Suggestions would be very appreciated.
I need to append time log to time_log table. I could append table without errors.

Employee_ID, Date, IN, OUT
I need an append query which doesnt duplicate rows.
Hey all. I'm trying to append rows to my database with some VBA code.
The code looks like this:
vInsertLoanSQL = "INSERT INTO Loan(BookID, MemberID, StaffID, BorrowingDate, ReturnDate) VALUES (" & vBook & "," & vMember & "," & vStaff & ", #" & Format(Date, "dd/mm/yyyy") & "# , #" & Format(vDueDate, "dd/mm/yyyy") & "#)"
DoCmd.RunSQL(vInsertLoanSQL)
The variables are all filled out.
The table that it's being inserted into, Loan, has an Autonumber primary key (not included in the INSERT script) and a number of other fields that have no zero-length restrictions, no "Required" fields set to Yes and no Indexes. The table in question is also completely empty, there are no rows (they have all been deleted) - so I have no idea why I'm getting that "Microsoft can't append all the rows in the append query" error. It says its a key violation but I really can't see how its possible.
Anyone out there know whats going on?
Hi.
How I can delete all rows from my table whit on query? Also I want that when I delete rows from my table index and other settings will stay in table.
I have a list of projects and am creating a query that tells me their duration based on beginning and ending dates. These beginning and ending dates can be edited by the user, and frequently, there are multiple beginning dates. When I query the projects, instead of getting unique project numbers on the left hand side to create unique rows, I get many of the same projects with different start dates. I would like to use the FIRST start date only for every project and not have multiple rows with the same projects being counted multiple times.
Is there any way to delete the excess rows and keep the original row? I've read a lot about using DISTINCT and UNIQUE INDEX with SQL but it seems as though these are only available for tables and not queries. Bright ideas, anyone?
Is there a way to select several rows of records in a datasheet view of a table and delete all of the selected records?
Every time I try to delete more than one record at a time, I get the following message: "The Micorsoft Jet database engine stopped the process because you and another user are attempting to change the same data at the same time."
Then it will let me delete one record out of the selection.
I am the only one in that particular table at the time I am trying to delete the record.
Thanks in advance for your help...
Hi
I have to make a query which deletes duplicate rows from my table. How I should start to make it? Can I do it whit one query or does this operation needs more queries? I know that DISTINCT works but how I can set it to DELETE operation?
I have try to use command DELETE DUPLICATES FROM Table; but this command deletes all rows from table why?
I want an append query to create a new record in a table and populate that record with fields from a form. Some of these fields are free text, others are from combo boxes.The append query adds vastly too many records (albeit all populated with precisely the same information) - and the number it adds seems to depend on which combo box options I choose.
I have a similar append query which pulls information from earlier records in the table, and combines that with free text and combo boxes on a near-identical form, which works fine and always just adds one row.
Hey everybody,
Admittingly I last did a query like this 4years ago and I know there is a simple way of doing it, but I have completely forgotten!
My problem: I am wanting to create a query which will automatically detect if a customer has NOT made an order in a period of twelve months (a customers details/orders are stored in the database: tables customer and tables order). Those who have not made any orders in 12months can be deleted (the option should be to delete them not automatic deletion.
I want the query to delete (if it is selected) all traces of that customer including their orders.
I tried creating the query and using the date function: <Date()-365, however, I want to make sure it will work.
Thanks and I hope people can help!
Hi
I need to know if it is possible to create a delete query which will target particular fields in a row based on certain criteria in a seperate combo box(on same table).
The few ways that I have tried to do this have been unsuccesful so if anyone can shed some light on the subject it would be greatly appreciated.
I am trying to run a query that appends data into a table.. however, the way im setting it up.....lets say i have a table named Accouts, and under accounts there is #1 to 30. When I try to add a new account through a form, and append it to that, it takes the 31 there nwo are after i added one, and adds it to the 30 alraedy there, creating 61 instead of 31. is there anyway i can take into account for duplicates when im creating a query. im new to databasing, just got stuck with this assignment for the summer, and have no idea what im doing :( and i dont have time restart after learning normalization. i wish i did, but i dont. if it works it works, thats the bottom line. thanks everyone.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI got these two append and delete queries in my database that i want to run on startup. I was wondering if there is a way to not have the msg that pops up to ask if you are sure you want to append/delete 0 record to table if there isn't any record that matches the condition set. I'm sure there is a way because if there isn't any record that matches the condition set in the queries then i don't want to have to click "No" everytime the database starts.
thanks,
Vincent

I am trying to build an incentive calculator for my company. I need a query that will take, for each employee,
Append rows as follows:
Emp1 | Attendance |
Emp1 | CSAT Score |
Emp1 | Quality Score |
Emp2 | Attendance |
Emp2 | CSAT Score |
Emp2 | Quality Score |
...etc...
The Attendance, CSAT Score, Quality Score are from a table named PARAMETERS where each department will have them listed as
Dept1 | Attendance | >90% |$10
Dept1 | CSAT Score | >8.0 |$10
Dept1 | Quality Score | >3.5 |$20
Dept2 | Attendance | >95% |$15
...etc...
I can do the lookups needed to find out which department an employee belongs to, but how to get the Employee to be listed in multiple rows like this.
Sorry, I really couldn't think of a solid title for this. I'll try and explain and provide some code as well.
I've got a series of tables, one of which is linked to a Mobile Device. I have a query (herein called Query A) that queries a masterfile, named MasterFileEdit, based on selections the user makes on the front end. Query A then returns the results, sorted by section number. Query B is set up to query based on the same selections, but instead DELETE all of those records from the masterfile. Doing this makes sure that no duplicate work is performed.
Here's the code for Query A.
INSERT INTO [TABLE A1] ( OID, SystemLoc, SystemPN, Location, Part_Number, Qty, Date_n_Time, NL, RCHKL, RCHKP, oddeven, Auditor, upperlower, area, aisle, [section] )
SELECT TOP 100 MasterFileEdit.OID, MasterFileEdit.SystemLoc, MasterFileEdit.SystemPN, MasterFileEdit.Location, MasterFileEdit.Part_Number, MasterFileEdit.Qty, MasterFileEdit.Date_n_Time, MasterFileEdit.NL, MasterFileEdit.RCHKL, MasterFileEdit.RCHKP, MasterFileEdit.oddeven, MasterFileEdit.Auditor, MasterFileEdit.upperlower, MasterFileEdit.area, MasterFileEdit.aisle, MasterFileEdit.section
FROM MasterFileEdit
WHERE (((MasterFileEdit.oddeven) Like "*" & [Forms]![LocationAudit]![oddeven] & "*") AND ((MasterFileEdit.upperlower) Like "*" & [Forms]![LocationAudit]![upperlower]) AND ((MasterFileEdit.area) Like "*" & [Forms]![LocationAudit]![area]) AND ((MasterFileEdit.aisle) Like "*" & [Forms]![LocationAudit]![aisle]))
ORDER BY MasterFileEdit.section;
Everything after the 'FROM MasterFileEdit' after is the user selections that come from a form.
I need help writing the DELETE query. Here's what I've got thus far:
DELETE MasterFileEdit.OID, MasterFileEdit.SystemLoc, MasterFileEdit.SystemPN, MasterFileEdit.Location, MasterFileEdit.Part_Number, MasterFileEdit.Qty, MasterFileEdit.Date_n_Time, MasterFileEdit.NL, MasterFileEdit.RCHKL, MasterFileEdit.RCHKP, MasterFileEdit.oddeven, MasterFileEdit.Auditor, MasterFileEdit.upperlower, MasterFileEdit.area, MasterFileEdit.aisle, MasterFileEdit.section
FROM MasterFileEdit
WHERE (((MasterFileEdit.oddeven) Like "*" & [Forms]![LocationAudit]![oddeven] & "*") AND ((MasterFileEdit.upperlower) Like "*" & [Forms]![LocationAudit]![upperlower]) AND ((MasterFileEdit.area) Like "*" & [Forms]![LocationAudit]![area]) AND ((MasterFileEdit.aisle) Like "*" & [Forms]![LocationAudit]![aisle]));
I can't get the DELETE to sort. The query runs, but doesn't select the records it should. In fact, it doesn't select any of the correct records.
Thoughts: does the TOP 100 modifier work with Deletes?
Is this query even possible?
Thanks in Advance for your Help.

I don't know if this is the right place for my post. Since is in regard to queries...
I have data that I want to archive from one table to another table within a press of a button in a single form. The append work fine for me, but i tried adding the code to run the delete query to the same button as the append's one is, but giving me error that MS can't run the delete query because i have the form open exclusively. If I run the delete query with the form closed it work. How can I make the button to excute both append and delete queries at the same time.
Thanks in advance for the help

I am accessing an oracle database that has several thousand records in it. I am quering for specific requirements, but would like to save my query results in a local access database for faster searching capabilities. Is there a way for me to set up a query that will go out to my oracle table files, select the records that pertain to my search criteria, and add records to locally stored tables without duplicating itself each time that I run the query? I would appreciate any assistance in this matter. Thanks for your help!
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am basically making a form to streamline the processes and functionality of my database project, so basically it's just a form that runs queries.
However, whenever it runs an action query, it always brings up a yes or no prompt for whatever action it is doing. Is there any way to disable these prompts (i.e. default yes to everything) or is this just an annoyance I will have to deal with?
Thanks.
I've been creating a simple macro which will append data and then delete data from a table.The criteria for the queries is found in a form, and this is used as a paramter.However, when i run this all as a macro...the append and delete queries somehow can't read the criteria in the form. Rather...i have to type in the criteria again...and then it works.I have attached a copy of my DB.
1. Go to frmArchiveStock
2. Select a stock from the combo box (this the criteria for the append and delete queries)
3. Click the button to run macro mcrStockArchive.
How can i get the queries to pick up the value entered in the form to act as a criteria when they run?
I am creating a database where the records of individual students are to be moved to different table depending on where they are in the graduation process. In order to do this, the secretary will enter the student in the "90 Hr Request" table (think of it as the first step), and move them down the line of tables (4 in total) until the final "Completed" table. Each table in the progression has more and more fields. However, a student (with their ID number as the primary key) can only be in one table at a time.
I understand this does not sound like a traditional database, as the data is not normalized. However, this is being used more as a filing system than anything else. Their data is primarily paper based (for legality reasons), but wishes to keep it organized in a database so they can run queries and print reports.
Currently, I am creating a macro that will run specific queries (in an order). I have made an append query that will move the records over, then I used a update (to null) and delete query combo to delete the old individual record. I made the delete + update query work by using a selected criteria.
How to make the append query move only one student's record at a time.
why isn't my Access giving me warning before runing the delete, append or update query because usually it warns you that you are about to append, update or delete the following number of records. It must be the settings, can someone help!
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a macro setup that deletes all the records in 2 different tables, then using about 8 queries, appends several records to the two tables where data was deleted. When these macros run, several Yes/No/Cancel dialog boxes come up for each query, first asking you if you are sure you want to do this, that it is going to change data in my table, and then second telling me how many records it's going to append or delete.
Is there a way to make it automatically run Yes to all of these dialog boxes? That would really help out a whole lot. Of instead of that, but maybe some sort of VB code that could do all the deleting and appending without the need of the Macros, and that doesn't require user intervention. I have my Macro's setup on the "On Click" event in a form, so using VB would be no problem at all.
Any Suggestions?
I need to reset the autonumber each time I delete/append records in a table. Best way?
