I created an expression in my query, when I run the report or try to go into it the design view I get the following error message:
The expression you entered exceeds the 1024-character limit for the query design grid.

I have a searchable form that display information on agreements other companies have with us. If a company requests an inspection we have 30 days to go out and complete it.
I am trying to create a message box that will display all inspections that are due within 5 days when the form loads. No luck so far, only broken dreams.
Is it possible for message boxes to use expressions and display information that fits the criteria?
Does anybody know what this error message refers to?
"Reserved Error (-1517); there is no message for this error."
It just started happening today, and I haven't even made any changes to the database. It occurs when I hit a button I have to run a macro.
the macro does the following: 1) Shows all records 2) Requery 3) ApplyFilter. The Where Condition for the filter is: Right([tblContracts].[JobNum],4)=Right([Forms]![FrmContProc].[txtFindJobNum],4)
The weird thing is that it only occurs if the Form window is taller than 1/2 of my viewable area. If the Form window is 1/2 the viewable area or shorter, it works OK. This was running fine earlier today, but about 4:00 pm (03/31/06) this started happening.
If anybody knows what this error means, or how to get rid of it (I really need to use this window in full-screen) then please let me know.
I am trying to create a expression to calculate the net fine of a book by the expression below by using a query:
Net Fine: IIf(DateDiff("d",[Issue Date],Date())>7 And [Returned]=True,(DateDiff("d",[Issue Date],Date())-7)*15,"0")
The returned field is a checkbox. The expression works but the record keeps updating and as a result the net fine increases everyday. So is there any way to keep the fine from increasing. I know then problem is occuring due to the usage of Date(). And I dont want use VB for this task. And is there any way to set its data type to currency.
I have attached a screen print of an error message I recieved on my access database. I finally got it to come up, but only after a few pop up boxes with this error message.
I do know the shared drive it is housed on went on the fritz. So I copied it and pasted it to my desk top. Grrr...I thought this message was due to the flipping shared drive. But now, I recieved it on my desk top too.
Anywho...can someone look at it and tell me what it means.
Thanks alot.
PS, i know my desktop has to much stuff, so don't go there. ;)
Hi can anyone help i keep clicking on a qry and it comes up with this message "Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'tblSTSLimits.Max Short'. but Max Short is correct can anyone help
I have a table that keeps crashing. The only error message I get is "Invalid Argument". Each time, a single record will turn into "#Error". Each field says this in the row. When this happens, Access won't let me delete just that row,
I am trying to Right Join two queries which are basically from the same exact table, but when I do that I get the following error.
ODBC--called failed.
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server] The column prefix 'MS1' does not match with a table name or alias name used in the query. (#107).
The following is a copy of my SQL
SELECT PqryExpiredPolicy.Policy_Number, PqryExpiredPolicy.Orig_Exp_Date, PqryExpiredPolicy.Insured_Key, PqryNewPolicy.Policy_Number, PqryExpiredPolicy.Name FROM PqryNewPolicy RIGHT JOIN PqryExpiredPolicy ON PqryNewPolicy.Insured_Key = PqryExpiredPolicy.Insured_Key;
I have looked for this MS1 and cannot find it. Any ideas where I should be looking or what this means?
I get the following error message when I open a form, but I cant see anything wrong:
Run Time Error '2447':
There is an invalid use of the . (dot) or ! operator or invalid parenttheses.
This is the code that causes the problem:
Private Sub Form_Activate() If Me.SumOfTotalGVS > 16 Then MsgBox "You have exceded the total amount of GVS on the CATT site" Let Me.SumOfTotalGVS.BackColor = 255 Me.SumOfTotalGVS.ForeColor = 65535 Else Let Me.SumOfTotalGVS.BackColor = 16777215 Me.SumOfTotalGVS.ForeColor = 0 End If End Sub
Can anyone tell me what is wrong with this line of code please. Im trying to count the number of records on another form that is open. This is an On_Click command from another form.
Hello all, I have an access application. I imported a form to it with all related tables and queries and modules from another application. Unfortunetaly, it didn't work. It gives me this error message when openning the form: The expression On Load you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: User-defined type not defined.
i have a form that allows me to save mobile phone details.
The problem with this form is that if its incomplete and i click 'x' it shows me the validation message followed by an error message (which is attached with this thread).....
why is that? is there anyway i can exit the form (incomplete) without the valdation message or error message occuring???
Function Age(varBirthDate As Variant) As Integer Dim varAge As Variant
varAge = DateDiff("yyyy", varBirthDate, Now) If Date < DateSerial(Year(Now), Month(varBirthDate), _ Day(varBirthDate)) Then varAge = varAge - 1 End If Age = CInt(varAge) End Function
I get this error when I try to run a query. I have attached a screeen print of the problem. Every thing else works just fine it is the same query I copied it and just change one of the fields. the other query orks fine.
I've been toiling with the issue of WHERE clauses on the "Right" side of Left Joins. I'm aware that you need to use JOIN ON......AND.... rather than JOIN ON....WHERE.... if the WHERE relates to the Right Hand table.
I've even got an example in my DB where the above works, but now am struggling to use the same theory for other tables. Therefore, I went and created two Mickey Mouse tables to test the logic but am getting an error.
I have Table 1 with one field called Field 1 - values A, B, C Table 2 as follows
Field 1.....Field 2.......Field 3 A.............100 C.............200..........XXX
I hoped to have a query that finds all records on Table 1 and records on Table 2 where Field 1 matches on the two tables and Field3 = XXX
My SQL is SELECT Table1.Field1, Table2.Field1, Table2.Field2, Table2.Field3 FROM Table1 INNER JOIN Table2 ON Table1.Field1 = Table2.Field1 AND Table2.Field3="XXX";
I am trying to get some of my colleagues to open a database I have created. They keep getting an error message on some of my forms:
"The expression after update you entered as the event property setting produced the following error – can’t find project or library Expression may not result in the name of a macro, the name of a user defined function, or event procedure There may have been an error evaluating an event, function or macro."
What does this mean? I'm assuming it has osmething to do with the code I have in AfterUpdate events but these are only requerys for cascading combos. Example:
Private Sub cboBusiness_AfterUpdate() Me.cboBusinessUnit.Requery Me.cboBusinessUnit.SetFocus End Sub
Where do I need to look to sort this? It works fine on my PC, but nobody elses.
the below scrip was taken from another forum member.
i have put this in the Forms / error VBA
but i still a little lost
i have set 3 fields to be indexed not to allow duplicate information (Forename, Surename, DOB)
i was then advised to error trap so it would highlight that i have enterd a duplicate record on typing in the DOB (As that as third feild to be entered)
so i then used the below script, however this doesnt highlight that it is a duplicate it just doesnt let me go on to the next record, the only time the error message is highlighted is when i go into design mode.
anyideas on where to go from here.
Private Sub Form_Error(DataErr As Integer, Response As Integer) If DataErr = 3022 Then Response = acDataErrContinue MsgBox "Tis MerID alredy exist!" Exit Sub End If If DataErr = 2169 Then Response = acDataErrContinue MsgBox "Tis record will not be saved!" Exit Sub End If
I have an Access project that when it starts, lets you pick a folder and a file to open as input (done with VBA code), and that works beautifully. My project then processes the opened file and that works fine also. However, when I run the project a second time, pick another file (with the same format), my project then dies on me. If I get completely out of my project and thenre-enter it, it runs fine. I've enclosed a screenshot of the error I'm getting.
Any help is greatly appreciated. And yes, I did a search on this and several other forums as well as on Microsoft's site and could not find anything related to the error I'm getting.
