Forms :: Spreadsheet Won't Allow To Delete Or Add Names?
Jun 14, 2013
I took over as officer for a club & the previous officer e-mailed me his spreadsheet containing club member names in alphabetical order. I copied & pasted his list of names, 7 pages, into my "OpenOffice" spreadsheet. I then clicked on "Tools" & put "X"s in each box if those members had paid for the 2013 year which was fine. I then converted this form to a PDF & saved it as same.
The problem is that I find there are some old, old members who are no longer active in this club & I would like to "Delete" them but seems that I cannot.
Additionally, I have new members written w/ pen on separate sheets of paper that I would like to add to this spreadsheet, in alphabetical order but don't know how to do that either so I'm left with outdated spreadsheet plus sheets of paper with new club member names.

Every month I download an Excel spreadsheet from a vendor and import it into Access 2003. Even tho the first row has column names, a dozen fields have incorrect names and data types and I have to manually change them each time. The spreadsheet has columns representing the amount spent for specific months. The column names are all like "May-02", "Sep-03", etc. and are all currency. After the import, many of the fieldnames are like "1/5/02 0:00:00" instead of "May02" and the data type is text. The column formatting is "mmm-yy" on all the columns, even the ones where the field names match the column names. How do I get all the fields to import correctly?

I need to delete all the field names from my table so I can import a new excel file with different field name headings,
currently I run:
DoCmd.RunSQL "DELETE * from table1"
this deletes the data in the table, but not field names.
What Vba command will allow me to do this.

The charity that I volunteer at has a web site through which they receive donations.
Most of the COMPANY names that they receive through their website are JUNK.
I would like to have a system to delete duplicate company names:
A = first programmatically delete all company names that are GOOGLE and this will remove about 60% of their spam
B = next group all Duplicate Company names, which will be removed manually

I use the following code to delete from a table all records except those meeting the WHERE criteria:
Code:
DELETE tblABC.*, tblABC.SubjectID
FROM tblABC
WHERE (((tblABC.SubjectID)<>99 And (tblABC.SubjectID)<>432));
I'd like to run this exact same query, but on many other tables, all of which are stored in tblTablesToClean (TableID, TableName).
Any good way to have Access loop through the list of tables in tblTablesToClean, each time passing the name of the table into the DELETE code and running the code, until all tables have been processed?

Hello,
I'm trying to build a personnal budget application.
I need to build a form that looks like a grid.
On the first column, you will see the different budgets elements
On the top line (headers), you should see the different months of the comming year.
I already managed to build the necessary tables (with 2 keys in the table source for the form).
My questions are the following:
1) how can I build a forms that looks like a spreadsheet, proposing me every cells from the start (not only the cells that i have filled before)?
2) how can I make for this form to be dynamic ? This means that, if I add a budget element in the budget elements table, how can I make the form to be adapted automatically, adding a line under the others, for every months?
I have asked severall other forums, no one could answer me.
thanks for your help.
Stephane

I want to create an access spreadsheet form in which the user can add data, which will be - after being processed - added to a database table. The spreadsheet form is for this reason not directly linked to a database table.
In the spreadsheet that I actually have, I manage to copy paste data from an Excel spreadsheet. However, only the first row is pasted. Access doesn't add new record lines for the other rows of my spreadsheet.
How can I make Access add record lines in function of the data on that is pasted? Or if this is not possible, how can I add sufficient additional lines myself?

I guess you've all heard this one before, but I'm relatively new to Access, and was wondering if there was a way to export data from a form to an already existing Excel spreadsheet via a form button. Is this even possible in MS Office 2007, or even at all?

I am exporting a single record to a spreadsheet. The code I have works fine. The problem is I want to have the spreadsheet contain the information that is in one of the forms textboxes, in this case a dogs name.
I have created a query to get the dogs name which works but I dont know how to get that query to run and then be put in the file name.
The code that I have is below
Code:
Private Sub btn_ExportDog_Click()
Dim strday As String 'The date
Dim sDest As String 'Where the file will be copied to
Dim sSource As String 'The name of the file to be copied
Dim strDogName As String 'The name of the dog that is geting exported
Dim strBackUp As String
strBackUp = "c:GPandDetectionDogTrainingLogBackUp"
[Code]...

In the default property of a subform control I want to use a control of the main form without using names of forms, but using me and parent.
I used in default property of cboVATDetail: =Me.Parent!cboVAT, but it is not accepted. My aim is to use cboVAT of parent as default in cboVATDetail of child.

I have a form with several data fields on it. I also have a button on the form that allows the user to duplicate a record . The reason for this duplication is so that if there will be an additional client record for the same customer, but only one piece of data will need to be changed, it's easier to copy the record and then change the one field.
However, I am getting the following message:
"some of the field names you tried to paste don't match fieldnames on the form"
and then not all data in all fields gets duplicated.
I need to figure this out, but am going nuts with it. If anyone has an idea or two they'd care to toss my way, I would be happy.
Thanks one more time, in advance!!

How important is it to add people's names into a database using two fields ?..ie: [FirstName] and [LastName]. Would it be ok to put their full name into one field if you also had a unique Identity Number for each person in the same table ?

I am currently designing an employee personal development and training database.I have 100 employees and the number that would go on a training course might be a handful so selecting four or five names in a subform list from a 100 seems a bit impractical.
I thought of selecting the course in a form from a combo box, selecting the employees using a tickbox in a subform and then running an append query.

In my database, my "switchboard" consists of two listboxes: "Available Forms" and "Available Reports". The Available Forms listbox lists all the forms that can be accessed, and Available Forms listbox lists all the reports that can be accessed. I did this so that I wouldn't have to create buttons for each new form or report. They all are automatically listed in the listbox for the user to double-click on to open.
Since all my form and report names are not user-friendly (ie: fmComplicatedAndUglyName, rpComplicatedAndUglyReport) I want a way for the db admin to easily assign captions for each form that the average database user would find intuitive and easy to understand (ie: "Car Maintenance" instead of fmCarMaintenance). To do this, I built a table called tbDBObjectsCaptions consisting of these fields:
dbObject_ID (PK - Long Integer)
Caption (Text)
Next, I have an unbound form (fmDBObjectsCaptions) consisting of two subforms:
1) sbfDBObjectsCaptions_Forms, which lists all Forms with captions
2) sbfDBObjectsCaptions_Reports, which lists all Reports with captions.
Each subform's record source is tbDBObjectsCaptions with an Inner Join between the table and the MSysObjects table so that I can show only forms (Type field in MSysObjects = -32768) or only reports (Type field in MSysObjects = -32764). So, the record source looks like:
Code:
SELECT tbDBObjectsCaptions.dbObject_ID, tbDBObjectsCaptions.Caption
FROM tbDBObjectsCaptions INNER JOIN MSysObjects ON tbDBObjectsCaptions.dbObject_ID = MSysObjects.Id
WHERE (((MSysObjects.Type)=-32768));
(Except the Report's subform record source Where statement would have "-32764" instead of "-32768".)Each subform also consists of a "Caption" textbox and a combobox that lists all the forms or reports in MSysObjects. The Row Source for those comboboxes are:
Code:
SELECT MSysObjects.Id, MSysObjects.Name
FROM MSysObjects
WHERE (((MSysObjects.Name) Not Like "*sbf*") AND ((MSysObjects.Type)=-32768));
(Except the Report's combobox row source Where statement would have "-32764" instead of "-32768".)My first day playing with fmDBObjectsCaptions went fine. Both subforms' comboboxes list either Reports or Forms and would easily let me choose a form or report. The subforms would record the same "Id" from the MSysObjects table into the tbDBObjectsCaptions table and each Caption I typed in was recorded into the tbDBObjectsCaptions table for each "Id" I chose. It worked just fine.
However, the next day, I noticed that the captions I assigned for forms/reports were now assigned to different forms and reports! In fact, the fmDBObjectsCaptions no longer shows any captioned reports as their Types have somehow changed from -32764 to -32768 and are therefore now displayed in the Forms subform.
Either the dbObject_ID is somehow mysteriously changing for each record in the tbDBObjectsCaptions table or the Id is somehow mysteriously changing for each record in the MSysObjects table. I don't know how or why but that's what's happening. So now, in the fmDBObjectsCaptions form, my Forms subform is displaying the wrong captions for the forms, and is also displaying records that were originally Reports (items that have captions but blank comboboxes were originally entered in the Reports subform).
I attached a copy of the database. Any different solution that allows for easy Admin'ing of displayed form/report names?

I have a combo box that brings up records for an individual. I have people with the same last names and have their first names showing on the combo box list, but when i choose one of them, it will always go to the name of the person who was entered first, so matter who i pick(that has the same last name).

I am trying to add a command button to my main menu to open the contact names as a datasheet, I have changed the properties on the contact names form to datasheet as well as changing the properties on the button to the below:
Private Sub Command48_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "Contact Names", acFormDS
End Sub
at first after I saved it, the button did nothing. Now after a bit of playing around (probably not a good idea) I have a new message that states:"The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Ambiguous name detected: Contacts_Click.To add some additional information, in the vba sheet above the code i wrote above it says:
Option Compare Database
Private Sub Contacts_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "Contact Names", acFormDS
End Sub
Private Sub Contacts_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "Contact Names", acFormDS
End Sub
should I delete this?

We have a form that will have one combo box for Associates (like Employee in the OPs DB) which I've got set to show only active Associates for new entry per the tips in the above thread, but we'll also have a combo box for Developer which I need to function the same way. I don't know how to add that part to the On Current event?
Code:
Private Sub Form_Current()
Dim strComboRowSource As String
If Me.NewRecord Then
strComboRowSource = "SELECT T_Associates.AssociateID, T_Associates.Associate, T_Associates.Active " & _
"FROM T_Associates " & _
"WHERE (((T_Associates.Active)=True));"
[Code] .....
