General :: ADODB Connection - User Defined Type Not Defined
Feb 10, 2014
I have a line of code in an old program:
Dim CN as ADODB Connection
This is giving me the error 'User defined type not defined'. I know I have to set something in a list somewhere but have forgotten how to do that. Where to go, and what to set?
I copied some VBA from one database to another. I didn't change anything and I am able to run it fine in the first database. But in the DB I pasted it to, I am received a Compile Error message with the XlApp As Excel.Application area highlighted.
Function OpenAutoCount() Dim xlApp As Excel.Application Dim xlWB As Excel.Workbook
On Compiling my assecc database VB code I get the following error message "User defined type not defined". I understand it is beecause I have not declared the Variable Type, but have no idea to exactly which part of the code the error is referring to.
How do I find out WHICH User defined type is not defined, especially when I have not got any (or do not want to use any) user defined types?
Thank you in advanced programming wizards. Kind regards, Adam.
I have a database that creates many forms based on queries which are based on user-defined variables. These are permanent variables added directly in the query, such as "if an employee is late 4 times in a month, we yell at them." I would like to be able to change this to "5 times in a month" if the users want to.
Rather than waiting for that to happen and having to change all my queries, i want to set up a form for them to access and edit the variable, save it, and then my queries to reference that variable.
My question is what is the best way to store and reference them? I could create a table, but i am not too sure how easy it would be to make my queries work with that.
I could also add them onto my main form which is always open, but I'm not sure how to make them save when access is closed. (a quick trial from my variable form won't let me update either a text box or label value on the main form).
I have created user defined function for lastdayofweek, lastdayofmonth, and firstdayofmonth. When I apply this function to an expression in my query, it returns a julian date. How do I apply the format for the calendar date?
Maybe I am not calling my function correctly. Here's my functions below as well as my expression..
Function LastDayThisMonth() LastDayThisMonth = DateSerial(Year(Date), Month(Date) + 1, 0) End Function
Function FirstDayThisMonth() FirstDayThisMonth = DateSerial(Year(Date), Month(Date), 1) End Function
Hello, I have the following code and i don`t know what's wrong Private Sub cmdCautare_Click() Dim strSQL As String, strOrder As String, strWhere As String 'Dim dbNm As Database 'Dim qryDef As QueryDef 'Set dbNm = CurrentDb() strSQL = "SELECT DOSARE.DosarID,DOSARE.DenumireDosar,DOSARE.CodDosa r,DOSARE.DataDosar,DOSARE.Denumire,DOSARE.Data,DOS ARE.Stadiu FROM DOSARE" strWhere = "WHERE" strOrder = "ORDER BY DOSARE.DosarID " If Not IsNull(Me.txtDenumire) Then strWhere = strWhere & "(DOSARE.DenumireDosar) Like '*" & Me.txtDenumire & "*' AND" ' " End If If Not IsNull(Me.cmbStadiu) Then strWhere = strWhere & " (DOSARE.Stadiu) Like '*" & Me.cmbStadiu & "*'" End If DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmPrincipal" DoCmd.OpenForm "frmRezultateCautare", acNormal Forms!frmRezultateCautare.RowSource = strSQL & " " & strWhere & "" & strOrder End Sub Here: Forms!frmRezultateCautare.RowSource = strSQL & " " & strWhere & "" & strOrder The error is the following "Application-defined or object-defined error"
Has anyone ever produced a function to let users, pick their own tab order for a form.
I am thinking along the lines of holding a tab order for each user for each form.
So when a form opens - if a user has saved a tab order the form will adopt it, if the user has never saved a tab order, the sytem default will be applied.
Is it possible to have an autonumber that is generated depending on the entry in a particular field? I'm creating a database to track various enquiries and I would like each enquiry to have a unique number that is preceded by a codenumber that identifies its origin. For example:
I have a combo box that the user can select a value and the form will display that record on the form. This all works fine, but if the user dosn't enter anything in the combo box, it does not work. Is there a way to have it work if the combo box is left empty? Thanks in advance - John
I am trying to get the list of all user defined tables from the Access database.
If I use the following query in Access it's working fine and getting the result. But if I am trying to execute the query in ASP page, it's not working. I am getting an error ([Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Record(s) cannot be read; no read permission on 'MSysObjects'.)
Can u please tell me the reason.
SELECT MSysObjects.Name AS TableName FROM MSysObjects WHERE (((MSysObjects.Type)=1) AND ((MSysObjects.Flags)=0));
Note: If you have anything, to extract user defined tables, please tell me. Either one works out for me.
I have a query [CustomerOrdersByDate] that requests user input for [CustomerID], a 'Start Date' and an 'End Date' for the [OrderDate] field.
the Report works fine, however I'd like it to be able to take the Start & End dates the user has inputted when running the report, and make it appear in the Report header e.g. Orders Received from [CustomerID], Between {user defined}[Enter Start Date] And {user defined}[Enter End Date].
I have added a text box to display the results and played around with a few different expressions, etc... unsuccessfully so far, and as I'm not up to working with VBA code, I would appreciate some help!
Is there any way of creating a user defined query/ report based on fields in a table? Basically we want a report to be generated based on whatever fields the user enters. So, say we have 30 different fields in a table, the user gets to click on a button that gives them the option to create a report that includes: field1, field2, field3 and where field10 = Blue. Is this possible to do?
I want to run an activity query (i.e. objective is to check which data lines have changed) within a user defined date range. Please advise what is the most efficient way to achieve this.
Is it possible to run such a report without having a date column i.e. does Access have a hidden line modification date that can be used in a search?
Im stuck! I am pretty much a novice when it comes to access and have been given the task or creating some reports to stop us doing it manually.
Within a query, I have a date column which we would currently enter the following into the criteria:
Between #01/01/2008# And #31/01/2008#
for the month of January.
What i want to be able to do (and i know is possible as ive done it in the past but cant remember how) is have a pop up when the query is ran to enter the Start date and End date. I remember it being something to do with square brackets but cant get it to work.
hi, I am new to this forum and to MS Acess. i am not a software engineer or in the field of software. I had to learn as much as i could about MS Acess because of a project i worked on. I have a standalone MSacess database and one of the forms is giving me trouble when I try to enter a new record
The form is called frm_fragrances and has information about a fragrance. the frm_fragrances has 4 fields in it and a sub form. the sub form has details about the fragrance
In a new record when I enter the 4 fields and attemt to go to the subform which has details about this fragrance I face this error.
an unexpected error haas occurred @2465: application defined or object defined error.
additional information Active form:<frm_fragrances> Active control:<txt_VendorName> Previous control:<frm_fragrances>@Please call the developer for further instructions
I have looked in the FAQ and on this forum for help on error 2465 and cannot find anything to help me. I can work with forms to an extent but cannot write too much code.
I would really appreciate some help in this matter Thank you
Based on one particular report style, have multi select criteria to produce user selected criteria
based on selections from a. Interest, b. State, c. Type
Report 1. sorts on Interest, 2. sorts by State, 3. sorts by Type ... and each report includes selections of the other 3 selections plus basic data common to all.
Plus, the Interests have a table where the main interest data is stored in a ContactInterest table, while the specific interest selections, per contact, are stored in the Contact table as Interest_1 through Interest_20.
In the Report, when it is sorted by Interest, while I have a concantated output for 5 of the selections, they also, want to sort alphabetically by the interest selections (which changes per Contact).
There is already a form for printing reports that are more static, and I wanted to add these selections on that form, perhaps as a subform, to allow printing of the reports, mentioned, and associated mail labels to the targeted addresses per group.
Any help, direction, guidance, or redirection would really help and is MUCH appreciated. I've tried many options, and as a newbie, have not yet found a solutions- or solutions.
Thank you so much. (time is of the essence and my skills are small so far.)
I have access application which was running fine recently but for some reason everytime I run it now it gives an error on the adodb connection string saying compile error.
Its doing this on every adodb connection I have in my database.
I have tried registering the dao an ado dlls but still the problem persists.
Hi all,I'm trying to attach some table from a Sql Server database, but when I take a look to the content, I see all the fields filled by the value "#CANCELLED".I supposed that the matter of such an issue could be the datatype used for some fields, a user-defined datatype. The only table content from the same Sql Server database I can see does not use that data type. I'm using a read-only account to access the Sql Server database. If I try to import the table, the data are imported correctly and the user-datatype is converted to text.Any suggestions for a solution / workaround ?Thanks Bye
I have used Allen Browne's code (see http://allenbrowne.com/ser-16.html, bottom of page) as a model for my user-defined type and public function in an events management database.
Using the function in forms/VBA works fine.
But my DB crashes whenever I try to use it in a query.
My modules code: = = = Option Compare Database
Public Type EvCheks EvType As String EvAttCat As String EvUnitAss As String EvCheksAll As String End Type = = Public Function getEvCheks(EV, EvUnit) as EvCheks
'Event Type: Event or DL If (DLookup("evtype", "tblevents", "[evid] = " & EV)) = "Event" Then getEvCheks.EvType = "Y" Else: getEvCheks.EvType = "N" End If
'Event Attendance Category: INDB= in database or LIST If (DLookup("evattcat", "tblevents", "[evid] = " & EV)) = "INDB" Then getEvCheks.EvAttCat = "Y" Else: getEvCheks.EvAttCat = "N" End If
'Event Assessing Organisation Dim AOROName As String Dim AOName As String AOROName = DLookup("evunitassessable", "tblevunits", "[evunitid] = " & EvUnit) AOName = Mid([AOROName], 1, InStr([AOROName], "/") - 1)
Select Case AOName Case "NA" getEvCheks.EvUnitAss = "N" Case "ABCD" getEvCheks.EvUnitAss = "Y" Case Else getEvCheks.EvUnitAss = "X" End Select
getEvCheks.EvCheksAll = getEvCheks.EvType & getEvCheks.EvAttCat & getEvCheks.EvUnitAss End Function ==== On a form, I have a button with on-click event code that defines the EV and EVU variables and displays a message box MsgBox getEvCheks(EV, EVU).EvCheksAll
This works fine. ===== In a query I have this SQL code: SELECT tblEvUnits.EvId, tblEvUnits.EvUnitID, getevcheks([evid],[evunitid]) AS EventDetails FROM tblEvUnits;
This causes the db to crash.
I cannot get the "back-end" definition of the function into the query, as Access rejects it because of the dot, i.e. ".EvCheksAll".
I suspect there is some formatting quirk for using a public function that includes a user-defined type, in a query.
I have a a table that stores various financial information such as sales receipt totals and variance totals (if actual cash in drawer did not match receipts, etc...) that I use to track cashier performance and identify possible problems. Part of this process includes a query that I pull reports against.
One such query, simplified to illustrate the concept, lists the dollar total that their receipts indicate they made, and the dollar amount that their actual drawer was off (either short or over what they should have taken in.) In this query I added fields that total Netsales (calculated from the first two fields) and another that calculates the percentage the variance is compared to their NetSales. The SQL behind the query is as follows:
Code:
SELECT tbl_OSRImport.Receipts, tbl_OSRImport.OverShort, [Receipts]-[OverShort] AS NetSales, [OverShort]/[NetSales] AS VarPerc FROM tbl_OSRImport WHERE (((tbl_OSRImport.OverShort)<>0) AND (([Receipts]-[OverShort])<>0));
This query works just fine. The calculated fields correctly display their results. The issue presents itself when I try to build a method for a user to run a report to see all the cashiers whose Varience Percentage (VarPerc) is equal to or within a range they specify. This allows the user to see all the cashiers who, for example, are more that 5% over or short. I have tried a number of criteria expressions in the query, with no success. I have gotten everything from a prompt asking me for paremeters to an error stating "Stack Overflow." I believe the problem has something to do with the fact that the numerical value that is calculated is a long string of numbers ending in letters and characters, which the Query displays as a neat and tidy Percentage. Below is an example of the data that I hope will explain this:
In the Query, the expression is: VarPerc: [OverShort]/[NetSales]
When the Query runs, the full numerical result is: -4.27103159497526E-02
Which visually is output as: -4.72%
Mathmatically (on a calculator using the same values) the equation is as follows:
-11.22 / 262.70 = -0.04271032
I think my attempts are failing becaue the query is trying to compare the user's input of (for example) 5, .5, .05, etc.... against the numerical value in the query result that includes the E-02 (above example.) So, rightfully it comes back with no results or an error.
Query that I have built to create a subform on one of my forms. It's my goal to make the subform easily navigable/query-able for the users, and that is where I've hit a roadblock. The subform contains a field - Balance - which I would like users to be able to search based on numeric/mathematic expressions (i.e. >0 and <40). In testing I have created a text box on the main form (BalanceCriteria), and linked it to the subform's balance field through the query in the Criteria field (forms!MainForm!BalanceCriteria).
This works fine with exact numbers - entering 19 will return client's with a balance of 19 - but returns an error - "Expression is typed incorrectly or is too complex to be evaluated" when tested with a numeric equation (>0).
I have quite a few user defined / custom functions which I would like to be available in any new database that I create without have to copy the VBA codes in a module each time. Basically, some sort of add-in that loads on MS Access startup may be (but I am not too sure - never created one). So something that will start with the MS Access Application and not just a particular database. I know excel addins can be copied to the XLStartup folder to achieve something like this in excel, but not sure about Access.
