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'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.
Im running a query and normally there is only a field-name in heading. I have multiple tables with equal field names. Now I want to get table names in heading too (Tablename.Fieldname) so I can make difference between fields on each tables when previewing query. Is this possible in access? I don't want to change all field-names manually, I know it's possible and done easily, but there are almost hundred fieldnames...
Im finding a solution. Help me please. Thanks :eek:
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.
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 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.
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 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 need a function or way of dealing with a field that may or may not exist.
I am crosstabbing a large database and then building queries on the crosstab. However, the field from which the column headings come does not always have the same data in it as I have to cut the data in different ways (always similar but not always the same). As a result, sometimes I get the error message:
"The Microsoft Jet Engine doesnot recognise [FIELD] as a valid field name or expression"
where a field I was expecting did not appear.
If it was a null value within a field I remove it like this: iif([Field] is null, 0, [Field])
Is there an equivalent formula for "exists" that will stop my queries falling over when it cannot find the field? eg iif(exists([Field]),[Field],0)
Any help, guidance or assistance gratefully received!
I have a database with 200.000 records, how I Add Primary Key Field. I'm getting error "File sharing count exceeded..", tried to increase "MaxLocksPerFile" registry , but without success.
I have two tables. The first one contains customer information. Primary key is custno. The second one contains customer logins, primary key is also custno.
What I want to do is to view customer information that does not have customer logins.
I have a form that contains two text fields i.e.; [Scat_text] and [STyp], which each can be changed by the users. I would like to combine the results of the two fields together and validate if the results exists in a query. What would be the best way to accomplish this?
I want to check if data entered in a form field is existed
The form is bounded to a table
I used this code
If DLookup("Telegram_Number", "tbl_Violation_Of_Building", "Telegram_Number Like " & Forms!frm_Add_Violation_Building!Telegram_Number) Then MsgBox ("number existed") Me.Telegram_Number = "" Else End If
everything is ok but if the data is existed the database show the message and clear the field but i'm getting a Run-time error
'-2147352567(80020009)': the macro or function set to the beforeupdate or validationRule property for this field is preventing [ISF] from saving the data in the field
I guess the problem because the form is bounded to a table so he will save automatically
My solution is to unbound the fields and save the data via vba but is there any solution with a bounded form???
The field SECL DDI has the users phone number unfortunately over time these have been entered in different formats so there are 5 digits, 6 digits, 7 digits etc...Can I run a query that counts the number of digits in each filed and then tell me how many of each exist
I have a file that I want to import on a daily basis and append to an existing table in my database. The date changes each day. I want to create a query that checks to see if the date (of the first record) already exists before I import and append the new file. If it does, I want to show a message saying something to the effect of "This file has already been imported".
