Queries :: Append Query Validation Rule Violations
Jul 31, 2013I'm trying to create an Append Query in Microsoft Access to add some data from one table into another table. I checked all of the properties and fields to make sure there are no validations. I have allowed zero length, and have tested the validation rules under the tools section of the design tab on both of the tables. When I run the Append Query, I still get an error that says 0 records added due to validation rule violations.

May 3, 2013I am building a scoring system for an Archery Tournament and am trying to add some extra validation between two fields.I want to check the contents of one field against another.So if Field A has an even value, then Field B must also be even, and if Field A has an Odd value, Field B must be odd.Would it also be possible to add an exception such that if Field B = 0 then the validation rule does not apply?I am only a very occasional user of Access, and don't have a very good grasp of the code structure in it, but am prepared to try and learn.

Feb 21, 2008I am using this function
Expr2: Mid$([ItemInventoryAssemblyRefFullName],(InStrRev([ItemInventoryAssemblyRefFullName],"-")+1),(InStr([ItemInventoryAssemblyRefFullName],":"))-(InStrRev([ItemInventoryAssemblyRefFullName],"-"))-1)
to parse this string
4150-ATH:GRP_54X8/BL
into this
ATH
It works great until I get to a string that looks like this
4110-SPECIAL:OLY:LONG-TRACK:REPAIRS
Which I need to return the word SPECIAL but it gives me #Error in the Query.
It would seem that when there are multiple : it is giving the error but when there is only one it works fine. Is there anyther way to atchieve what I am doing?
I am doing this in an update query to get data from Quickbooks into a table in Access.

Aug 12, 2013I am trying to create a validation rule whereby If a box is checked it makes sure that before saving and moving to the next form several, though not all fields are valid.
Ive tried many variations of:
([x] Is Not Null) OR ([Y] is Null) And ([x] Is Not Null) OR ([Y] is Null] etc etc for the fields I need covered.
Either the rule doesnt work at all or else all data input is invalid!
Tables :: Validation Rule Doesn't Recognize Hyphen As Text
Feb 15, 2013I'm struggling with a validation rule that almost works but not quite.
I want to restrict the values in a feild by characters between 0-9, A-Z, _ and -
Using the following string works for all except the hyphen, which I assume is because it's an operator:
Is Null OR Not Like "*[!((a-z) or (0-9) or (_) or (-))]*"
Is there something I can do to make it recognise the - as text?
Forms :: Validation Rule In Access Form On Unbound Text
Jan 8, 2015Is there a way to add a validation rule in an access form on an unbound text box. This box is currently doing a calculation of others. If the figure is not between 0 And 0.3125 then I do not want the user to be able to move on. For some reason if I enter "Between 0 And 0.3125" in the validation rule it doesn't seem to do anything. I can only assume its because its an unbound text box. Data attached please see Frm_Input and text box total standard hours.

Nov 22, 2005Hey I have a little problem, I have this assignment for school to make a simple database, I did all that but there's one little thing I can't seem to find.
I have to limit a Field's length to 15, but not through Field Size but thanks to a validation rule, and since I don't know a lot of validation rule commands I have no idea what the syntax is for the field length. How can I do this, it's pretty urgent actually, need to have this by tomorrow :s
Thanks!

Nov 27, 2005Relatively new to access, just trying to create a range in a validation rule. What I have are 2 cells, Date_Taken and Date_Returned. I want Date_Returned to only accept values between: Date_Taken and equal to or less than the current date.
Between "Date_Taken" And <=Now()
is what I've got at the mo', yet it's not working. I'm gathering that I'm referring to the Date_Taken cell incorrectly. Any help? I don't see any tools to fix such a thing.

Apr 2, 2008Hi,I'm really struggling to try and find a solution to a problem.I need to find a validation rule that only accepts:letters, spaces and hyphens (-) in the field.I have tried for at least 14 hours today and most of yesterday afternoon, but I just can't get it.The furthest I've got is rejecting everything except from letters and spaces, with each these codes individually:(I've only listed a few so you could see just a fraction of what I'd already tried)Is Null Or Not Like "*[!((a-z) or (Chr(32),Chr(45)))]*"Is Null Or Not Like "*[!((a-z) or (Chr(32)) or (Chr(45)))]*"Is Null Or Not Like "*[!((a-z) and (Chr(32)) and (Chr(45)))]*"Is Null OR Not Like "*[!((a-z) or (( ),(-)))]*"Is Null OR Not Like "*[!((a-z) or ( ) or (-)))]*"Is Null OR Not Like "*[!((a-z) and ( ) and (-)))]*"Is Null Or Not Like "*[!((a-z), ,-)]*"However, it is also rejecting hyphens, which I need it to accept.Also, unfortunately it is accepting bracketsHopefully someone here will have a solution, because I'm stumped, :confused:James

Nov 4, 2004Question about validation rules. I have a user who has set up a validation rule to allow certain values to be entered.
Something like if the value equals 4 or equals 5 then it would accept it. Now she would like the validation be set so they can put both 4 and 5 in together. How can this be done?

May 7, 2005Here's my problem:
Table: PARAMETERS
Field: PARM1
Field: SYMBOL
Table: TRANSACTIONS
Field: DATE
Field: AMOUNT
Field: loads more...
What I want is a validation rule on the AMOUNT field, which says that the data entered cannot be greater than the number in the PARM1 field.
I can't get this to work, and I reckon it's becuase there's one record in the PARAMETERS table, but lots in TRANSACTIONS.
In solving this problem I do not want to add any more records to PARAMETERS. The idea of that table is that it is an easy way to customise the database, not a way of storing data.
I've putting this in the validation rule box (but it didn't work):
=<Tables![PARAMETERS]![PARM1]
Please help!
Thanks

Jul 5, 2007Hello can anyone help me I am trying to make a validation rule for a field. It needs to be Between 0 And 28 OR "NA". When I use this in the validation property it works for the numbers and text but if you input say NJ or any other combination it issues a message box saying cannot evaluate the constraint, check Validation rules.
Am I missing some important syntax or something. Any help gratefully appreciated.
