I have purposely used "False" to ensure that the first line in my spreadsheet is ignored. This is because the first line in my spreadsheet contains headings that do not match the column names in my table.
I do not wish to change my headings as end users will be making use of my application and they will not like headings such as "int_FactoryID". Likewise I do not want to change the column names in my table to words such as "Factory ID" as this would be a bad naming convention.
Is there a way to use TransferSpreadsheet without necessarily matching the headings in the spreadsheet to the column headings?
Is there a way for TransferSpreadsheet to ignore the headings and assume that the first column in the spreadsheet needs to go to the first column in my SQL Server table?
I am trying to import data from excel into one of Access table but it showing error F30 does not exist in destination table. I have checked headings which are matched. Same sheet tried to import in access successfully, but unable to import specific table...
I have a large table which is updated everyday. Each record will have a different date but there will be many with the same account number. I have a query which will pull one record from each account number according to a user specified start date, another query which will pull by end date, and a third query which uses both to do a calculation on another field. The problem is, if one of the first two queries does not find a record with that date then the calculation will not be done because there is no record. What I need is a way to go back one day if the specified date does not exist. I have tried using an iif statement in a report with the DateAdd function in the true part. Here is what I have
[blinks_test_end]![Reading_Date] is the user specified date. When I run the report it asks for blinks_test_end, I think it doesn't recognize that this is the user specified date.
I'm using the following code to autofill the city and state on my form. I can't figure out how to capture if there is no matching record in the table. If there is no matching record, I will:
1) inform the user with a msgbox then if the user wants 2) open a form to add the record to the table
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Dim db As DAO.Database
Set db = CurrentDb Set rst = db.OpenRecordset("tblZipcodes", dbOpenTable)
rst.MoveLast rst.MoveFirst
Do Until rst.EOF
If strZipLookup = rst!ZipCode Then Me.txtCoCity = rst![ZipCity] Me.cboCoSt = rst![ZipState]
End If
rst.MoveNext
Loop
rst.Close End If
How can I capture if there is no matching record in the table?
I have a fairly simple append query that appends two columns of data to another table - all good. Except, the destination table has a field 'ServiceDate' that I would also like to be completed at the same time with today's date. I presume that this is =Date(), but where do I put it to make this happen?
I have a training database with multiple courses. Certain staff do course1 and thereafter course2. Course1 is only done once and course2 is a refresher done annually. I want the query to find staff that have done course2 but not course1.
Validating field from a query. I have a table with a field that has a value number that I need to validate that that number exist in another table in a field
Table1.field1 Number Table2.field1 number
So let's say a have in table2.field1 the list 1 2 3 4 5 8
In table1.field1 I need to validate that the number I enter is present in table2.field1 so 1 would be ok but 6 invalid and it can't be a from list statement because I need the person to enter a number and get no error or get invalid number.
Having issues with getting auto update of Yes/No field dependant on todays date.
When users open the form the code runs through and checks all entries and updates the records if either of the dates in two separate fields is less than today. The issue I have is when some users are already using this form a second user cannot open it. Error shows other user information as having the form locked and code halts at highlighted spot below. Is there another way of ensuring this field is updated to Yes or No if the date in the field is less than current date.
Code: Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer) Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Dim dbs As DAO.Database Set dbs = CurrentDb
I am receiving the error above when I try to execute the code below. I have checked the fields in the code as well as the table and I can't see what I am missing. The tblMeasure table which is the subform have the following fields:
The link between the two forms are StaffApraisedID to MStaffApraisedID then StaffID to MUserLoginID then StaffPosition to MPositonName. When I select a member and click the Duplicate button I received the error above. The area highlighted in red is where it errors out.
Code: Private Sub cmdDuplicateData_Click() On Error GoTo Err_cmdDuplicateData_Click Dim OldStaffID As Integer, NewStaffID As Integer OldStaffID = Me.StaffApraisedID 'Add new record to end of Recodset Object
I am using Access 2007. I have had an application running now for about 1 year and now getting an error when user opens the database. (Have one for front end and one db for backend)
Here's the error message:The form name Switchboard is misspelled or refers to a form that doesn't exist.Also, multiple users are accessing the database at the same time.
I'm new to programming with Access but am attempting to create a new field in a table with an new date based on existing fields in the table.
The current fields are [Frequency], integer, [Risk], text, [Last Audit Date], date/time, and the new field is [Next Audit Date]. [Frequency] is a calculated field based only on [Risk] and is equal to "5" if [Risk] is "Low" and is "3" is [Risk] is "Medium" or "High", and [Frequency] is blank if [Risk] is (thus far it has never been empty).
What I need the new calculated field to do is return "N/A" (or blank, or anything easily separated really) if [Frequency] is blank, or if [Risk] is "Low" or "Medium". If [Risk] is "High", [Next Audit Date] should be equal to [Last Audit Date] plus 3 years. When I try to save the code, I get this message: "The expression could not be saved because its result type, such as binary or NULL, is not supported by the server."
This is my code now: IIf(IsNull([Frequency]),"",IIf([Risk]="Low","N/A",IIf([Risk]="Medium","N/A",IIf([Last Audit Date]="N/A","N/A",[Last Audit Date]+Year(3)))))
Hello all. I'm trying to finish up a database for our farm and am running into issues as I'm pretty new to Access. I know VB6 but not a lot of VBA. We spray chemicals, and need to keep track of the acerage we spray for the date.
So here's my problem: When I go to write my records, I need to search a table for a date. If the date exists already, then I need to update the total acreage related to the date. So first, how do I search the table and keep track of if the date was or wasnt found, and if found, calculate total acreage from value pulled from table, and the new acreage value, then write that back to the table.
Users are viewing a record on a form that gets it's data from a query. I want to make it so that if they edit that record from that form, a last updated field will timestamp the date/time that the record was edited. I added a lastupdated to the source table which of course adds it to the query and so it's on the form.
But whenever i access the form and change something, the lastupdated only shows the time the record was created (which is from a different form based directly on the table). Whenever I edit any other field data in that query based form it changes in the table. Why not the Lastupdated?
I want an append query to add records to one of several tables, depending upon the value of a variable entered into a form. This variable is also used to select the appropriate records. The query is invoked from the visual basic code behind the form.
Can anyone tell me how to edit the destination table from within the visual basic?
I have a table that is filled based on selections that a user makes in combo boxes on a form. I am having trouble trying to figure out the best way to prevent duplicates from being inserted in the table when I do the append query part.
Since the table is filled based on the various selections the user makes I dont have a primary key or unique field.
Can someone help me figure out the best way to do this append/update queries to prevent duplicates. Also if you have a strategy for setting up some sort of unique or primary key for fields that could all be the same yet in the table only 1 record will show, no duplicates.
I have some experience doing 'Update Query' using two different tables but I'm having a hard time doing an 'Update Query' using 3 tables.
I have my source table TP05XY with the fields 'Mark' 'Date' 'UTM_Edig' and 'UTM_Ndig'. Mark and Date are my primary keys (they together uniquely ID each record). I have my Observations table with the fields 'Mark' 'Date' and 'Obs_ID'. The last table is Locations with 'Obs_ID' 'UTM_E' and 'UTM_N'.
I want to update my fields UTM_E and UTM_N from UTM_Edig and UTM_Ndig. However, to do so, I have to go from my TP05XY table, through Observations table to update Locations table. Table TP05XY is joined to Observations through 'Mark' and 'Date' and Observations table is linked to Locations through 'Obs_ID' field.
I have tried a few options without success ... anyone knows how to do it?
I currently have this set as the forms default recordsource (which works just fine):
Code: SELECT TOP 5 tblUsers_Phone_Book.EMAIL_ADDRESS, weightedDL('me@mine.com',[EMAIL_ADDRESS]) AS Expr1
And I have this vba to dynamically switch around that email address.
Code: Private Sub Form_Load() Dim intPos As Integer Dim strControlName As String Dim strValue As String Dim sSQL As String If Len(Me.OpenArgs) > 0 Then ' Position of the pipe
[Code] ....
If I msgbox the sSQL - it shows identical to the default recordsource but I get the error:
The error message I get is:
Run-Time error '2580' The record source 'SELECT TOP 5 tblUsers_Phone_Book.EMAIL_ADDRESS, weightedDL('me@mine.com',[EMAIL_ADDRESS]) AS Expr1' specified on this form or report does not exist.
I tried copying the exact working default sql into the vba and get the same result.
I am trying to get a series of combo boxes to interact and record the selections made in new records within a destination table. Here is situation with respect to the tables involved:
1 table lists the names/acronyms of various research facilities and the branch to which they belong (acronym is PK) 1 table lists Financial Points of Contact for each facility (acronym is FK to relate to earlier table) 1 table lists Technical Points of Contact for each facility (acronym is FK to relate to Facility table) 1 table lists program participants and the branch they belong to (Branch in FK to relate to Facility table)
I am trying to create a form that allows me to set the participant and, from this selection, restricts the facility choices in the Facility combo box to those that fall within the branch to which the participant is assigned. I think the next step is pretty obvious too. Once the facility is selected I have combo boxes that would only display those Financial and Technical PoCs assigned to that facility.
I have watched the 4 Data Pig tutorials and I can easily make functional cascading combo boxes as long as they only refer to the look up tables. I generated perfectly functioning cascading combo boxes on a test form. How do I generate combo boxes that will then store the info selected in my destination table? Whenever I try to set a Control Source it disrupts the functioning of the queries.
I have a form with Date of Death (DOD) field. I would like update DOD from a table dbo_patient into Z_Patients table.
I have set the datatype as Date/Time in the form for Date of Death.
Code: Private Sub Update_DOD() Dim rcMain As New ADODB.Recordset, rcLocalDOD As New ADODB.Recordset Dim DOD As String rcMain.Open "select distinct PatientKey from Z_Patients", CurrentProject.Connection
[Code] ....
However I am getting some error Run-time error '-2147217913 Date type mismatch in criteria expression in section below.
Code: CurrentProject.Connection.Execute "update Z_MAIN_Processed_Patients set DateOfDeath = '" & rcLocalDOD!date_of_death & "' where PatientKey = " & !PatientKey
