Hi guys. I'm a bit of a noob with Access. I have a table which is 15 rows by 250,000 columns. So there are about 3.75m records.
What I need to do is to get access to export a number of csv files automatically from this table.
I need each csv file to contain all the data in the table for a certain range of rows. This is determined by a value in a particular column. This is a sample of the table.

Basically Store_Nbr represents a UID for a particular store. All the data is currently in one big table, and I need a single csv file for each different store_nbr (so it contains all the data in the table for each unique store). Also, for each store_nbr, there are different Year Month of Surveys. For each store_nbr, I need a different csv file for each Year Month of Survey. This will probably divide up the 250,000 long table into about 200 csv files, as there are about 50 different Store_nbrs, and there are 4 surveys for each individual store.
Sorry if I've not made myself perfectly clear.
I'm sure there's a simple way of doing it, but I really do suck with access and was wondering if you guys had any idea.
Here is my problem: I have an Access database that contains a table with three columns (A & B & C). Field A is for code values and field B is for the value for that particular code. Field C holds the case number. I have a folder that contains the information for over 5000 case numbers. Each case number needs to be placed inside of the table. Considering there are 5000 case numbers, I dont want to use the import wizard 5000 times.
Furthermore, the text file only has two columns (for A and B).
I am trying to create a VBA that will append rows to the table by going into each file and placing the information into the table. The first row for each file contains the case number. So when the VBA runs, it should open the text file get the case number from the first row (field B on the text file) and place that in the case number field of the table for the entire file; and then repeat this action for all of the files in the entire folder.
Any help that can be provided will be greatly appreciated.
I have some data in excel which I am importing it into MS Access 2002. Each excel file (one worksheet per file) is imported into separate tables.
I want to combine all my imported tables into one table. Is that possible, if yes then how and if no then what can be done to get single table after impoting data from various excel files.
I've got a table tblPatienten, a table tblRechnung and a form frmRechnung.
The primary key in tblPatienten is KundenNummer, the primary key in tblRechnung is RechnungsNummer. The relationship between tblPatienten and tblRechnung is one to many.
Now, every patient (stored in tblPatienten) is allowed to make multiple orders (stored in tblRechnung).
How can I assign each new order entry in frmRechnung to an existing patient in tblPatienten?
I am building a simplified re-order point system - if inventory position drops below a certain level (the yellow level is this case) one or more purchase order lines has to be created in another table.
I have one table with the following field and data:
ItemId Red Yellow Green Multiple Inventory position 0001 10 30 50 5 45 0002 5 40 47 5 23 0003 11 20 30 10 5
I would like to generate new records (in another table) based on the above fields and three records.Basically the end result should look as the following:
The logic is quite simple - if inventory position is less than the yellow value new order lines should be created in multiple qty (based on the multiple field) until the aggregated value (in table 2) is above the green value.The priotization value should be based on the start inv (in tbl 2) compared to the values in red, yellow and green in tbl 1.
Hi, I'm new to Access, but I think I've been doing fairly well. At my job, we use multiple Word tables and excel spreadsheets to keep track of information on journals we subscribe to. (I work in the periodicals/serials department of the university library.) We have a LOT of journals and a lot of information on each one.
I have already imported our "superholdings" file, which includes the names of the journals and a few bits of information on each one. What I want to do is import other bits of information from the other files into that same table. I tried importing the files into the existing table, but rather than merging all of the data for each journal title, it simply added the new records to the bottom. I tried importing the files as new tables and joining the tables with the title fields, but that didn't do what I wanted.
Really, I just want to merge all of the data. If the Title's match exactly, then I want all of that information in one record for that title. I have been VERY consistent with field names.
I'm new to Access, but I learn fairly quickly. I notice on this forum (I've read a LOT of the posts looking for answers to this question, and got answers for other questions) that most of the solutions involve coding or programming of some sort. I have NEVER done this in access. If the solution to my problem involves this, please tell me where I'm supposed to type those commands. I'm somewhat familiar with softcode (from a mux (talker environment) I started frequenting in college), but never have programmed anything. (Not since basic on our old IBM XT!!)
Okay, an example is forthcoming, once I figure out how to do it in this little window.
Hello friends,I have a pretty noobish question. I was wondering if it was possible to have several (3 in my case) different forms that apply data to a single table? The main table has three different types of data: 1. Client info 2. Services A 3.Services B. Each type of data has about 7/50/12 different fields of data in each set so that trying to include all this data on a single form is not very user friendly due to clutter.I have three forms that input data into the table, however the record navigation command buttons that I have on the forms do not apply the data to the correct record. For instance, when I input the Client info for client #2, and click the "open services A form" command button, the form opens on client #1 Services A instead of to a new record. Is this something I have done wrong, or is it due more to MS Access limitations? Thanks
I have been given the task of setting up a database which will store data which I will receive on a month basis, I have managed to import some csv files however, I will be receiving well over 200 csv files each month. Is there a way to import these multiple file.
The filename save structure is as follows: areacode-Jul 05data.csv
I am having trouble creating a query where I am trying to count number of records for different fields for a particular criteria, and combine the results into a single table.
My table is in the form, TimeandDate,WS127m_Avg,WS82m_Avg....
I want to count those records where a 9999 is reported, and report by month. For a single field I can do this OK using,
SELECT DateSerial(Year([TimeandDate]),Month([TimeandDate]),1) AS [Month], Count(WS127m_Avg) AS 9999s FROM CL_AllData WHERE (((WS127m_Avg)=9999)) GROUP BY DateSerial(Year([TimeandDate]),Month([TimeandDate]),1);
I can't figure out how to report an additional field (WS82m_Avg) at the same time, checking for the same criteria in that field (i.e. WS82m_Avg = 9999).
Hi, thanks in advance for any help you can offer. I've got a table that has
Date Time Tag ID Power Level
throughout the day a computer listens to several tags (transmitters) and records the power level of the signal generated by the tag each 3 seconds. What I'd like to do is build a query that gives the Date, Time and Maximum Power level reading for each tag ID. I only want 1 record per tag per day
I've tried using "group by" and max in the query but this gives me all the times throughout the day.
I have a lot of Excel files and each of them has 3 sheets that I would like to import in Access 2010. How can I import them without having to do one by one?
I'm developing a simple sporting records db. I have a 'Competitor' table listing competitors as follows: CompetitorPK, Name, Division, Club. I have a 'Contest' table listing contests as follows: ContestPK, Competitor1_FK, Competitor2_FK, Winner_FK, Score etc. My question is have I modelled tables correctly i.e. CompetitorPK will appear in three columns of Contest table. How do I define this relationship? What alternative is there to what I have done.I intend to use forms to populate both tables (independantly obviously).
some code I've come up to in order to import multiple excel files each of them with a different number of worksheets into an access table. The procedure is called from an Access database. The problem I have with the code is that when it encounters a workbook with only one worksheets (e.g. Sheet 1) it gives the error that "Sheet 2$" is not a valid name. When geting to a workbook with 2 sheets it says that "Sheet 3$" is not a valid name and so on and so forth. Is there a way to "check" the number of sheets in the workbooks and when it has only one sheet to transfer it and go to the next file?
Below is the code:
Code: Sub ImportExcelFiles() Dim strFile As String 'Filename's Dim strFileList() As String ' File Array Dim intFile As Integer 'Number of files Dim filename As String Dim path As String DoCmd.SetWarnings False path = "D:Tranzactii"
I've seen a lot of repeated questions from newbies about exporting to text, but so far I haven't come across a scenario like mine. Apologies if I've overlooked something.
I'm using Access 2003 and I have a database that contains a record for each article that appeared in a certain newspaper over the last 30 years (~70,000 records). Each record has a field for year, month, issue, page, title, and text. The text field contains multiple lines of HTML as well as the text of the article itself -- the program designed for viewing these articles calls on this field to create an html document that resembles the original newspaper page in the GUI.
What I would like to generate is a separate .TXT file for each article containing just the text of that article and a filename system that identifies each file by year, month, page, and possibly title (i.e., about 70,000 separate text files). I'm not sure if I want the title within the document or just in the filename, but I'm assuming that wouldn't be difficult to change.
In other words, I'm trying to work backwards, reconstructing the text files that the person who made the database probably has sitting on a disk somewhere (but I don't have access to).
I've read about using the TransferText method, setting up an export spec and looping it in VBA, etc., but the closest solution appears to be Microsoft's page on exporting records to separate HTML files (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/access/HA010345961033.aspx), which mentions: "You can create a Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) program that enumerates through the record set and uses the PRINT statement to output each record as a separate HTML file." After doing this I guess I would batch convert from HTML to TXT. Unfortunately I am new to Access and don't know VBA.
i'm in the process of creating an Access database to import data in text files and then export the data as fixed width text files, this is now working fine
My next step is to be able to setup an "Archive" Table which will hold all the data i have imported across multiple import proceudres for the last 30 days, i then want to be able to "De-Dupe" any files i import against this to ensure i never load duplicate data.
I have to write a code for my database,i have folder with files "pending Review" and a table with column "tblExcelLocation". when i run my database all the files from pending review folder goes to "tblExcelLocation" on a click of button.But,if the files already exists it should not insert those files and insert the rest.For this i tried to write a code but i think i m unable to do that .
Code: Loop through files in folder folderspec = "O:QA FilesQC ReportingPending Review" Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set f = fs.GetFolder(folderspec) Set fc = f.files
What I have is a database setup with multiple tables in which different areas of my DC can input information simultaneously into their respective tables. I then have another database linked to it for myself to have a live view of each updated record. I would like to see all the records of each table in 1 single table (possibly just sorted ascending by time). Each table has the same Field headings but may have different qtys of records. As I will then have it linked to an Excel table to VLOOKUP from it.
I have tried Union coding but always get Syntax Error etc.
I made a database that in one of the forms, I like by clicking on a button the user be able to select 5 excel files with different file names (in the same directory) and then based on the imported file's names, it be stored in 5 different tables.
At the moment by using the bellow code, I can import multiple files (with the same formats) only into one table . My vba code comes as follow:
Function GetAllFiles() Dim fd As Object Dim strFilter As String Dim lngItems As Long
Const msoFileDialogOpen As Long = 3 Const msoFileDialogViewDetails As Long = 2
I am trying to build a newer database 2010, based on an older one,2000, that has been locked tight and I cannot see the modules to kinda get a reference of where to start. I am trying to find a VBA code that will allow me to import a several text files to one table. The text files are all in the same format but I cannot remove the page headers and footers to get the table to look right. I have attached an example of the text file i am trying to import but it is a stripped down version for information protection.
Also, it appears in the old Database Table once imported as:
J.Smith 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date J.Smith 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date J.Smith 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date J.Adam 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date J.Adam 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date J.Adam 1234 01 ABCD ABCD HGJV 2345 ABCDE ABC6 Qual Date Date
If I could import the text files and end up with a table like this, it would be all i need as i could run all the queries i need from this.
Does anyone out there know how I might do the following:
I have a main folder which contains many sub-folders. In turen, each subfolder contains several files. I am interested in creating a text file that within each sub-folder will list certain files in that sub-folder. Example:
Read Main Folder Do While Sub-folders exist Do while selected sub-folder contains files If selected sub-folder contians FileZ then Write selected sub-folder name to text file Write time/date stamp to text file else loop to next ub-folder end if end do while end do while Close input and output
I am trying to export a table from access excel spreadshhet.. but not in the simple traditional way.
I have 140 lines of data, I need a marco to take this single table and 140 lines and create 140 spreadsheets one each line of data appearing on one of the sheets. Id also need the title of the spreadsheet to be in one of the fields in the actual spreadsheet.
