having a prob with the above. not sure what is the best way to find out what comes after the @ in an e-mail address.
For example, if i was to have the following e-mail address@
firstname.lastname@myemail.com
is there an expression to use to shrink the above so that i can only see the "myemail.com"?
thanks for your help.
Hello all,
I have a field called "Name", which for example is: "Johnny Briggs".
I want to be able to show the exected e-mail address, which would be: "johnny.briggs".
So, all I need to do, is take out the space, and replace it with a full stop.
Should be easy - but I can't figure it out!
I don't really need to store the address - so doing it in my query is preferable.
Thanks in advance!
I would like to be able to pull a list of e-mail addresses from a query and put them in one field separated by a semicolon and space so that it could be sent to word and easily cut and pasted into whatever e-mail program someone has. I know very little VBA--can someone help me?
Thanks!
I do have another problem with my "Membership Monster" After designing the base with only registential Addess information in the data entry Form. I had to include fields for a separate postal address. This only applies to maybe 10 of 400 entries is there a simple clever way I can copy this data over to the new postal detail fields from the Residential detail feilds ? I thought it may be possible to set thee residential fields as source data. But I am unsure if it is then possible to enter different data over the top if the postal address is different.
I also then need to be able to mail merge the postal details of current members so as print out address labels for the magazine.
I'm a very new user of Access. I am creating a contacts database (3000+ contacts), with up to 6 addresses per contact, though most will only have around three. I'd like to find the best way to select the preferred mailing address (using a combo box??) in order to be able to regularly creating mailing labels (and letter mail merges).
View 4 Replies View RelatedSo I have the following query which works perfectly (and will be use to create a report) but when the query runs to create the report I also want it to mail merge some of the items into word to be used on address labels.
Code:
SELECT Dunmow.Date, Dunmow.Undeliverable, Dunmow.Duplicate, Dunmow.[OTM with XXXXXX], Dunmow.[Landlords Salutation], Dunmow.[LL Address 1], Dunmow.[LL Address 2], Dunmow.[LL Address 3], Dunmow.[LL Address 4], Dunmow.[LL Address 5], Dunmow.[LL Postcode], Dunmow.[Letter 1], Dunmow.[Letter 2], Dunmow.[Letter 3], Dunmow.[Letter 4], Dunmow.[Letter 5], Dunmow.[Letter 6], Dunmow.[Letter 7], Dunmow.[Letter 8]
FROM Dunmow
WHERE (((Dunmow.Date)=DateAdd("d",-7,Date())) AND ((Dunmow.Undeliverable)=False) AND ((Dunmow.Duplicate)=False) AND ((Dunmow.[OTM with XXXXXX])=False) AND ((Dunmow.[Letter 1])=False));
So thats my query, What I want it to do is to take the following
[Landlords Salutation]
[LL Address 1]
[LL Address 2]
[LL Address 3]
[LL Address 4]
[LL Address 5]
[LL Postcode]
and use it for a merge item to create the labels required.
I have a standard word document/label document I wish to paste this into.
Hi, this is probably a very easy question for you “Access-gods” out there.
I’ve made a database (MS Access 2000) with all my clients. I collect a lot of contact info, including e-mail.
I want to make a function which opens a new mail window (Outlook 2003) and automatically puts in the e-mail from my form (In the send-to field of outlook).
Is this possible? And how?
(BTW: I’m a newbie with VBA)
I have a form where the user puts in a email address, eg test @ myserver.net
So the link opens a new mail it has to be prefixed by mailto:
How can I automatically replace the address the user enters with the format mailto:test@myserver.net
Hope you can help!
I have an access table which lists a customers address, however, if the customer has a temporary address it will also list that on a separate line -
CustID Address Type
1234 5 The Street P
1234 12 The Street T
2345 13 The Road P
3456 12 The Avenue P
Where P = Permanent and T = Temporary
I want to set up a query to show the permanent address where there is only one address, but where the customer has a temporary address also, I want to list the temporary one instead.
Thanks
I have a ms access table with two fields...tablename is ..."Addresses"..
Field1:= Employee_mail_id
Field2:= Leave_balance
What I need to do is that,I need to send individual mail (in Bulk) two each employee intimating their leave balances.
Is it possible to do it in vb .I want it to assign the codes in a button.
Below iss the code.
Dim r As Recordset
Dim email As String
Set r = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("select * from Addresses")
Do While Not r.EOF
email = email & r(2) & ";"
r.MoveNext
Loop
r.Close
DoCmd.SendObject acSendNoObject, Null, Null, email, Null, Null, "Test subject", "Message body of the test letter", False, Null
I have a form bound to a table which stores contact info for a person. I have two controls that are email_address and website_address. I set them both as hyperlinks.
So now when the user clicks on the email_address Outlook opens a new message with an email_address in the To field. (I had to use a function found on this forum to replace the "htttp" with "mailto" on AfterUpdate event in order for this to work properly.) However, now trying to add some other features to my DB I ran into problems listed below. I wonder if I should have rather left that control as Text instead of Hyperlink, and use the DoCmd.SendObject on doubleclick event instead of using the above solution.
How people usually store email addresses and enable emailing on click?
The problems I ran into:
1) My main form is in popup mode and therefore right click on the hyperlink does not give an option to edit the hyperlink
2) I copied a function from this forum which gathers a list of emails and sends one message to the emaillist. However, my email list instead of generating as:
email1@a.com; email2@b.com
it generates as:
email1@a.com#mailto:email1@a.com#; email2@b.com#email2@b.com#
I guess I could extract the email using vba (not sure how), but I still don't know how to solve issue number 1. So maybe it is better to siwtch the field to plain text and forget the hyperlinks?
Thanks,
Mariusz
PS. What procedure on double click would open a default browser, since I also have to deal with web addresses and thought of turning them into text controls?
I am completely stumped on this one. I have a database where we track IP Addresses and I just want to sort by IP...should be simple, I'd think.
With these 5 IP's, I'd want them in this order:
1.2.3.1
1.2.3.4
1.2.3.7
1.2.3.9
1.2.3.10
1.2.3.17
1.2.3.21
But it sorts in this order:
1.2.3.1
1.2.3.10
1.2.3.17
1.2.3.21
1.2.3.4
1.2.3.7
1.2.3.9
Is there anything I can do to fix this? I want it to see each number as a whole, for example "10" instead of "1" and "0"
Much thanks.
I have an address all in the one line at the moment. My front end has been programmed this way. Now I have to split the address into 3 or 5 lines. The address looks like this:
3 Thorn Road Edinburgh Scotland G68 2AA
The post code is in a seperate field so that makes it easier for me.
This is the query i have.
UPDATE Clients SET Clients.Address1 = Left([Address],InStr([Address],",")), Clients.Address2 = mid([Address],InStr([Address],",")), Clients.Address3 = Right([Address],InStr([Address],","));
If it was looking for this address: 34 Thornwood Road, Kilmarnock, Aryshire. It would produce
Address1 = 34 Thornwood Road, = Correct
Address2 = kilmarnock, Ayrshire ,= Should be kilmarnock
Address3 = nock, Ayrshire = Should be Ayrshire
tried all different ways and it meeses up can someone point me in the right direction.
Thanks

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi Ive got a form that has customer details at the top i.e name, address etc. and then a products subform. Once I have chosen a customer it then automatically fills in the address fields and i can then add products to the order. I then press a button which produces a form showing the customer name and address and the products they ordered. I want to be able to have it so I can add a tempory address if the customer wants the goods to be shipped somewhere different to there normal address. How do I do this without adding another address into the database?

Hi all,
Just a little advice on how to approach a problem.
I have some simple address validation in an unbound form. When the user types in a suburb, I have a DLOOKUP function that returns the appropriate postcode for that suburb.
My problem is that most suburbs have more than one postcode (standard and PO BOX).
How can I return both values?
My intention is to then allow the user to select the appropriate postcode.
Thanks

What is a email address (in a PM)
Jabez
any one have experience with address verification in access through the US postal service? any good resources? Examples?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a form for all my clients, and currently there's a separate field for each part of the address. This does not make it easy to cut and paste an entire address block. I therefore created an unbound text box with the control source as:
=[FMT-NAME] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [Pref1] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [Pref2] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [PrefStrt] & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & [PrefCity] & ", " & [PrefState] & " " & [PrefZip]
This works ok, but if someone doesn't have anything in the fields [Pref1] or [Pref2] it leaves blank lines. Is there a way to code it so that I can have a complete address block? Thank you.
Hi - I am importing information into my database of customers names and addresses. The country part of the address comes in 2 letter code - eg AU = Australia, IT = Italy etc. What I would like is to change these to the actual country name. Is there a neat way of doing this? I am thinking doing a whole line of if then, but it all looks really messy.
Thanks

Problem: Turning an address column containing a comma into two or three address colums containing no comma
I have a database with the structure:
company
address
town
postcode (zip code)
The present address column contains one of the following (I give examples)
-76 Nelson Street
-99 Bush Lane, Waddington
(where Waddington is a village, or quarter of the town named in the town field)
-Nixon House, 150 Clinton Street, Hareswood
-sometimes there might be a redundant comma at the end of the string e.g.
99 Bush Lane, Waddington,
-very occasionally the address field is empty (when the record is still incomplete
----------------------------------------------
We now have to interact with another company and its software, which takes commas as field delimiters. We therefore have to get rid of all commas in our address field.
I have therefore revised our structure so that it now is:
Company
Addr1
Addr2
Addr3
Addr4 (which contains what was formerly 'town')
Postcode (zip code)
Now I must distribute the contents of Addr1 into Addr1, Addr2, Addr3
and eliminate the commas in the process.
Our database has 4000 records. Therefore doing this manually is prohibitively expensive and takes far too much time. We need the revised database virtually overnight.
My knowledge of Access is fairly limited, but it is ***I*** who has to solve the problem.
Request
------------
Is it possible to do this automatically?
How would you proceed, which steps?
If an Action Query has to be used - well, I have never used an Action Query before (but I have a hefty book about it = "Willing to learn - fast").
If there is a simple formula to be entered into the Action query, could someone please give me the formula?
Thanks for your help.

Access 2003
I've inherited an Access Application which is basically a Front End for calling Integration Service Packages - for all intents and purposes it could be stored procedures or anything other executable. A number of forms have hard coded links that point to a particular executable on a network drive.
With regards to this the UAT packages will live in a different directory than the DEV code so is it possible to parameterise the link e.g. could W:CAT DevelopmentAutomation PackagesOTCOptionsImport.dtsx become W:PARAMETERAutomation PackagesOTCOptionsImport.dtsx - if so then how do I create a parameter, capture it and use it in the link above.
The whole project is lacking the use of parameters at an ACCESS level and Integration Services level but due to time constraints there is no scope to major overhaul the system design.
I am a developer with many years of experience but my Access knowledge is limited so any pointers would be helpful.
