File Extension And Hyperlinks

Mar 11, 2007

Hi Everyone

I have just solved one problem concerning creating hyperlinks based on values in other fields: See Previous Thread (http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=124590)

but now I have another, the hyperlink I have created links to a document, while for the majority of time it is a word document it is not always, occasionally .xls or .pdf

So I need a way of building into the hyperlink code the file extension, my thoughts are it would involve check boxes and if statements (one check box for each) but I am unsure of how to do this, can anyone help?


My code is currently:

Private Sub H_Enter()
Form!H = "hyperlink#C:Documents and Settingscew1My DocumentsWORKSpecs" & Form!S & Form!PC & ".doc#"
End Sub

MS Developer Extension And Runtime

Jan 10, 2008

Several post in the recent past asked the question of how to package the db for distribution and how to run the Access db in computer not installed with Access. Before Access 2007, you must purchase another program for about one thousand dollar to do this. Microsoft now offer these two programs "Developer Extensions" and "Runtime" for free. The Developer Extension is a program that will package your db into an installation disk. You can package the Runtime program in the install disk for users that use computers without Access 2007. Here are the links to the MS website for the download.

Extension For Access 2007 Database.

Aug 21, 2006

Greeting All,
I am trying the beta version of Access 2007 and realize that when converting Access 97 to Access 2007, the new db in Access 2007 has an extension of .accdb. I rename the db file name to xxxxx.mdb and the VB app fails to recognize it.

Is there any way to convert the xxxx.accdb (Access 2007 beta) to xxxx.mdb so that I can try my app against the Access 2007 db?????

Thank you for your time,

ConKi

Importing Filenames Based Upon Extension

Apr 10, 2008

How would one go about scanning a hard drive for all mp3 files (i.e. *.mp3) and importing all of the titles into a database? I'm sure the dir function comes into play, but it seems to only handle "current" directory and not sub directories.

I was just curious is all..... haven't really dabbled that much in the file/directory functions.

Modules & VBA :: Zip Code Not Importing With Extension

Jun 27, 2014

I have a pretty basic TransferSpreadsheet module that works well except that if the Zip code has the four digit extension, it's not importing.

Option Compare Database

Dim myCheck
Function MeridianLinkFileImport()
DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, "tbl_MeridianLinkFileImport", "R:DEPT-BRCONSUMER LENDINGMarketing Campaigns2014 Auto Loan PrescreenReport from LoansPQ.xls", True, "Sheet1!A3:AO50000"
End Function

If there is no extention, it is importing fine... 85086 works fine but 85018-4710 doesn't import.

The field is a Short Text data type.

Queries :: Expression To Remove TIF Extension

Mar 14, 2013

How to create an expression that removes the ".tif" extension of a file path.The data looks like this in it raw form:

J:201303080056273_ELECTRICALRETAILER_00100562 73_ELECTRICALRETAILER_001_3.tif

In my query grid in the filed row I have the following:

ImageRef: Mid([strImagePath],111,38)

which produces the following:

00056273_ELECTRICALRETAILER_001_3.tif
00056273_ELECTRICALRETAILER_001_31.tif

and so on...

What I need to do is remove the ".tif" part of the data. because of the way the path is output with regards to the tif image number, I'm having difficulty in targeting only that data that comes before the ".tif" extension.Is there a method I can use that will remove the right 4 characters and in conjunction with my expression above produce the following:

00056273_ELECTRICALRETAILER_001_3
00056273_ELECTRICALRETAILER_001_31

I've managed to work out how to get the data without the file extension ".tif" with the following expression:

ImageRef1: Left([strImagePath],Len([strImagePath])-4)

which gives me the following:

domgennt.dggroup.comglobalResourceApplication sUNIeFlowIMAGES201303080056273_ELECTRICALRET AILER_0010056273_ELECTRICALRETAILER_001_3

and

domgennt.dggroup.comglobalResourceApplication sUNIeFlowIMAGES201303080056273_ELECTRICALRET AILER_0010056273_ELECTRICALRETAILER_001_31

How can I combine the following expression with the above expression to get what I need:

Combine - Mid([strImagePath],111,38) with Left([strImagePath],Len([strImagePath])-4)

to get this result:

00056273_ELECTRICALRETAILER_001_3
00056273_ELECTRICALRETAILER_001_31

General :: Follow Hyperlink To A File Without Using File Extension?

Sep 6, 2012

Is it possible to follow a hyperlink to a file without using a file extension?

I have links being created based on the name of a file, but because I haven't used a file extension it crashes.

I know I can give the user a choice of what the file extension is and add it to the hyperlink, but it's an extra step, and another place for someone to make a mistake.

I'm potentially using 3 different file types, Word, Excel and PDF's.

The hyperlink works if I just reference a drive/folder, or if I add the file extension.

Forms :: Copy Value From Field In Subform To Field In Main Form During Data Entry

Jul 18, 2013

How can I get the value from a field in one table (in the sub form) to copy/insert into a field in another table (in the main form) when adding a new record?The main form and sub form are linked using parent/child linking, and the sub form is in a tab.I have table A (Visit Dates) in the main form which is used to record the date of a visit to a church. Table B (Quarters and Peals) is used to record an event that took place at that church during that visit. Note that not all visits in table A require a record to be created in table B - but half or more do.

In tables A and B I have a field called "QuarterOrPealID" and these are both primary keys, though the field in table B is set to 'no duplicates' and in table A it's set to 'duplicates allowed', as table A has its own auto number/pk. They are both linked in the relationships.

So, when I add a new record to table A using the main form, I might then need to click on the tab in the sub form to create a new record in table B, which has to be linked to the same record in table A. When the "QuarterOrPealID" auto number/pk is generated in the sub form (table B), I need that value to update to the "QuarterOrPealID" field of the main form (table A), so that when I'm viewing these records the form pulls all the information nicely together.

Modules & VBA :: Filter Subform Data - Only Show Records Where Field A Is Higher Value Than Field B

Oct 24, 2013

I want to filter my subform data, to only show records where field A is a higher value than field B.

Code:
Me.MySubform.Form.Filter = "A > B"
Me.MySubform.Form.FilterOn = True

This way it doesn't find field B.

Code:
Me.MySubform.Form.Filter = "A > " & MySubform.Form!B
Me.MySubform.Form.FilterOn = True

This way it seems to filter all record to the field B value of the first record.

Limit A Field To User Defied Values Depending On The Input Of Another Field.

Nov 23, 2005

Hey all,

I have two fields 1 & 2

field 1 is a simple combo list of user defined values ie A, B, C or D

Field 2 relates to a attribute of the data in field 1 and is not always the same for A, B, C and D. i.e

A could have a,b,c,d or e
B could have c,e,f,g or h
C could have a,g,h,i or j
D could have v,w,x,y or z

I would field 2 to have a combo box which only displays a,b,c,d, or e when A is chosen in field 1; c,e,f,g or h when B is chosen; etc

How do I do this?

Cheers all,

Matt :confused:

Forms :: Can A Field Auto-fill From Previous Entry In Separate Field

Mar 21, 2013

I've just returned to work after kids and started managing a large Access database related to health, back-tracking over many years.

Currently in filling a form we physically enter:
Apples 2.2
red apple 2.4
red apple cut 2.45
Oranges 5.6
Cucumbers 8.5

Is it possible to get field 2 to automatically fill with a number code due to the text typed in field 1?

FWIW, I'm confident at more basic Access e.g making follow on default value = Dlast("field""table") type stuff but the more complex stuff I haven't touched since Uni over a decade ago and you will need to be gentle while I blow away the cobwebs

Forms :: Autofill Field Based On Related Field In Previous Form

Jun 30, 2015

I have my Assets form and the primary key is the ChargerID, in this form I have an "Add New Job For This Asset" button, which opens up the Jobs form at a new record.

How do I make it so that the ChargerID field is automatically filled with whatever the previous record was instead of being blank.

For example if I have Charger12345 open in the Asset form, I'd like to click the Add New Job button and it automatically have Charger12345 in the ChargerID field of the Jobs form.
