General :: Cannot Add A New Column To Conflict Table
Jul 1, 2013
I'm currently running a replicated database in Access 2003 (plan on migrating to 2010; but have several users on 2003). I guess I pushed the number a fields within a table to be close to the 255 max and of course had a conflict in that table which put me over the top. Now if I receive the following error: "Cannot add a new column to conflict table 'Table_conflict'. Delete obsolete columns and compat the database."Since this will occur with all of my replicas is there a way do either automatically clear the data in the 'Table_conflict' or remove the table?
Ok....Just when you think it's all running smoothly.... :( I have a combo box, MDLastName, with a column count of 9, with column 2 displaying and all others hidden. The selection made with this combo populates 7 corresponding fields (first name, address, etc). It's working perfectly.
The first problem I encountered was with identical last names, but different corresponding data. When I selected Jones, for example, it would populate the first Dr. Jones and his info, listed in the table. However, if I selected the second Dr. Jones in the combo list, it was still populating only the first Dr. Jones' info. I resolved this by binding the fist column (ID, aka primary key), but still hiding all colums but column 2. First problem fixed..
Next, I have a Word Template document bookmarked to receive data from the form, frmDenial. I have all the coding working fine and dandy to insert the data from the fields on the form, save, and print. However, instead of inserting the text from the MDLastName, it is inserting the primary key (because it is the bound column in the combo box). Now, because of the first problem discussed above, I cannot change the bound column to column 2 (containing the data I need in the Word Template). How can I get the right info to appear in my template with the bookmarks?
I have a problem with write conflict error. The database is functioning normally and without any problems but on particular computer. the systems are same (windows 7) with office 2010.I have a form with subform based on query. Changing the records in a subform is without any problems, but on one particular computar, I am allways receiving Write conflict error message. When I copy / paste the database from the wrong computer to another one, everything is OK. When I copy / paste it back to problematic computer, the problem is back also.It seems, that the problem is maybe somewhere in settings of this computer.
I am using access 2010. I have "classlevel" table with 2 columns-Class and Value1 .Value1 column has numeric values that i ll input from webpage (webpage to ms access connectivity).
I want to sum the values of column "Value1" and i have another table-"Volume" which has 2 columns "VolumeLevel" and "Value2". So i want to match the sum that i calculated from first table-"ClassLevel" with the "value2" column in "Volume" table and get the corresponding "volumelevel" column value from that table and there is a third table that will get this volumelevel value.
There is no common column to join these tables.
Classlevel-
Class Value1 Class 0 3000 Class 1 2000 Class 2 300 Class 3 400 Class 4 500
I have a SELECT INTO query that pulls info and drops it into a table, after deleting the target table and making it anew upon insertion of the selected records... Is there some way to accomplish the same feat without deleting the target table, so I could retain the target table's fields/field lengths?
I would first set up a target table with fields of specific lengths, and when the data is inserted, the data that fits would insert into these fields, and data that didn't would be truncated..I guess my problem is that when the new table is created it makes all the fields string 255 which is too long when I goto export the data, without having to clip/trim the data for use.
Is there a way to have multiple validation rules in one column in a table. In one column, I need the values to be in all lower case and the first three characters need to be three letters.
create a datasheet from 2 odbc linked tables which I will be exporting to Excel. The resulting datasheet will have four columns, 'Purchase Order Number' 'Stock Code' 'Delivery Date' 'Unit Price'. The information I require in the datasheet is a unique stock code (one occurrence of each stock code) with the most recent unit price based on the last delivery date for each product. The linked tables contain many Purchase Orders for the same stock codes over a time period of a number of years where the unit price has varied.
In the organisation that I work for employees get paid every 2 weeks on a Saturday. So for this financial year the pay period end dates have been 08/07/2006, 22/07/2006, 05/08/2006 etc
I have a column in an Access table listing various dates. I want the next column to be populated with the next pay period end date after that date.
So if DATE is 05/07/2006 I want PAY PERIOD END to be 08/07/2006 and if DATE is 09/07/2006 I want PAY PERIOD END to be 22/07/2006 etc
on my laptop, i have an access front end with tables linking to sql server personal edition.
i open a linked table, edit a field, and i get a write conflict error message 'this record has been changed by another user since you edited it', and the save record button is not enabled
i have many linked tables, but this is the only table that gives me this error. i have deleted the table in sql server, and made a new table, and started the link process again, but still the write conflict.
also, as i dont know if this is related.
when i get tothe screen to link the tables, i see 2 table names prefixed with a "~", however, when i go into sql server, i cannot see any tables prefixed with a "~"
any responses would be most appreciative, as my project has effectively stopped until i can resolve this.
An application that I made was created in Access 2000 as I was told that all users had at least this or newer. Of course a user with 97 popped up. Instead of having them purchase 2000 or newer I converted my app to 97 version. I expected troubles with references. So far this has only been a phone conversation and I plan on going there later today. The user says hitting alt/F11 does nothing... no code window comes up. I had her look through the menus for the code window but she says there is nothing there. She is getting runtime 3433 (she thinks) and unrecognized database format when trying to open a form. The database did open when holding the shift key though.
Before I go there, how do I open the code window for 97? Any other suggestions? I bet this is a reference thing but there may be a problem with their access install too. There are 2 users at this location with the same issues... at least it sounds like it.
I am keep on getting Write Conflict whenever I check a check box called chkHCE. There are over 3000 records and it's happening for every records. I would understand if it's happening once in a while but it's happening for every records.
Please suggest. I attached the error print shot. The data souce is a qry but updatable query. The query has two tables tie together. I never had any problems. Can anyone share their idea Please ???
Thanks
Code behind the chkHCE
Private Sub chkHCE_Click() If Me.chkHCE.Value = True Then Me.HCEInitialPrepared.Enabled = True Me.HCECompletionDate.Enabled = True Me.HCEType.Enabled = True Else Me.HCEInitialPrepared.Enabled = False Me.HCECompletionDate.Enabled = False Me.HCEType.Enabled = False End If
I am using an unbound form (based on VBAUnbound.zip) to enter records into a table. following is an excerpt of the code: Code:.AddNew .Fields("Catalogue_Code") = Me.txb_ip_cataloguecode .Fields("Base_Metal") = Me.cmb_ip_basemetal .Fields("Paint_Type") = Me.cmb_ip_painttype .Fields("Color_Family") = Me.cmb_ip_colorfamily .Fields("Metallic") = Me.cbx_ip_metallic In the form, for all fields left blank, the code above places a NULL in the table.
I also have a form to search the same database which uses a following kind of SQL string: Code:SELECT M_Paint.* FROM M_Paint WHERE M_Paint.[Base_metal] Like '*' AND M_Paint.[Paint_Type] Like '*' AND M_Paint.[Color_Family] Like '*' AND M_Paint.[Metallic] Like '*'; This search does not pick records with any fields with NULL if looking for 'Like '*''... which is obvious.
I have tried replacing NULL with ' "" ' and then the query works but I have to manually do this replacement. I have tried putting ' "" ' as the default value of all the combo boxes to see if that changes anything but have had no luck.
My options are: - Modify my SQL string to include NULL in the search - Make sure that a zero length string is added to the fields by default when no value is specified - Anything else that I cannot think of
I will deeply appreciate help for any of the three options... I am out of clues! Thanks a lot
I've created a query that resets a table entry called "Drum" to null if I change the record "Cable". This process works, except I get the following error when I do so:
" Write Conflict
This record has been changed by another user since you started editing it. If you save the record, you will overwrite the changes the other user made. Copying the changes to the clipboard will let you look at the values the other user entered, and then paste your changes back in if you decide to make changes.
[Save Record] [Copy to Clipboard] [Drop Changes] "
I have set warnings to false but this still comes up.
Does this mean something is wrong with my method of updating the table? If not, is there any way I can stop the warning coming up?
We have multiple users using the same database as local copies on each of their PC's. they are entering information in specifically assigned areas and no one is overlapping in their work areas. The users then synchronize to a master database that is on the network to transfer their info.
When synchronizing we are beginning to conflict errors, and the message is hard to decipher. Below is an example:
"Update/Delete conflict: Another replica also updated this record. This record lost the conflict. Either resubmit your update or delete the conflict record."
It then shows two columns. Column 1 has the option to "Keep exisiting data" an dcolumn two has the option to "Override with conflicting data".
Technically, when synchronization happens, data of the user who is synchronizing overrides existing data in the master database in the same record(s). In that spirit, what is the 'existing' and 'conflicting' data referred to in the message?
I am working with a linked table that has a field [Originated Date]
I have created a query for this table and on the criteria for [Originated Date] I put the following:
Between [Forms]![Date Input]![StartDate] and [Forms]![Date Input]![EndDate]
I am using a pop up calendar to populate [StartDate] and [EndDate] fields on the form.
The format of the Date field in the linked table is "Text" not sure if this is the root of my problem ?
When I run the Query Manually and input the [StartDate] as yyyy/mm/dd and the [EndDate] as yyyy/mm/dd the query returns the desired results; However when I run the query with from the form It does not return the desired results.
It is driving me crazy not sure where the discrepency is ?
I searched this one and found that someone else had posted the same problem 2 years ago, but since no one replied to that one... I'm still stumped.
I have a set of subforms, each on a separate tab of the main form and pulling from the same table. I have code triggered on after update so that changes to a control on subform A will make changes to several controls on subform B (specifically, disabling the control and deleting any value). When I switch to subform B, I get a message saying:
"Write Conflict: this record has been changed by another user since you started editing it. If you save the record, you will overwrite the changes the other user made. Save record, copy to clipboard, drop changes"
I implemented this in the Northwind database and everything was fine. I implemented this in my database (which is very similar to the northwind in structure!) and receive this error:
"WRITE CONFLICT This record has been changed by another user since you started editing it. If you save the record, you will overwrite the changes the other user made. Copying the changes to the clipboard will let you look at the values the other user entered and then paste your changes back in if you decide to make changes."
I have no idea how this is happening. Can anyone throw some light on this? Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
When I add something that is not current in the recordsource for the combo I still get the msg box: "is not on the list, Do you want to add it? click yes or no. I click yes and then I now get this error: "The text you entered isn't an item in the list. Select an item from the list or enter text that matches one of the listed items"
As I said earlier the NotOnListEvent worked just great until I added the AfterUpdate Event. Any suggestions for me? Thanks in advance
The Source Table is updating but the Table the Form populates is not updating.
Please help. This is driving me crazy. and thanks!
I have created a form which updates the values in a table when the submit button is clicked. I get the following error when I do this:
" Write Conflict
This record has been changed by another user since you started editing it. If you save the record, you will overwrite the changes the other user made. Copying the changes to the clipboard will let you look at the values the other user entered, and then paste your changes back in if you decide to make changes.
[Save Record] [Copy to Clipboard] [Drop Changes] "
I have set warnings to false but this still comes up.
Does this mean something is wrong with my method of updating the table? If not, is there any way I can stop the warning coming up?
If, on the startup form of the attached mdb, you type anything in any of the text boxes of the FPersonale subform(which, in form view, is labeled "Shift schedule") you get a message titled "Write Conflict" saying that during the current session the record had been modified by another user, asking to choose between saving the record, copying the edits to the clipboard or discarding the edits. I've tried to get rid of the message by putting Me.Requery at the end of the text boxes' AfterUpdate event code but the message still pops up.
I am doing some work on my company's database. It is a MS Access 2003 front-end with an SQL back-end.
Recently, I have asked the database administrator to add some new fields to an existing table and two of them are yes/no fields. When I have tried to update these fields, it comes up with a 'Write Conflict' error message and I can only choose 'Copy to clipboard' or 'Drop changes'. But either way, my changes do not get saved.
I have found that the error occurs when I refresh the table links to add the new fields and then try to save over just the old fields and not even trying to add anything into the new fields. Two of the fields are yes/no but they have a default value of 0 and I'm not sure what is causing my error. I read that it may be due to these yes/no fields having no default values so I thought I would mention it incase anyone may have suggested that to be the reason for my error message.
I have a form for updating contact details of customers/suppliers. Upon clicking an edit button the user can update txt boxes (as opposed to updating the table data directly and making a mistake). When they press save the below code runs:
Code: If Not IsNull(Me.txtp_fname.Value) Then Dim strFirstName As String strFirstName = Me.txtp_fname Dim FirstName As String FirstName = Replace(strFirstName, "'", "''") End If
