General :: Delimiting - Separate File Into Individual Records
May 24, 2013
I am trying to import several hundred records into Access from a txt file but I can't find a way to separate the file into individual records. A portion of the file is given below:
'C Olive Teece', 'Census, 1940', 'birth: 1919 New York', 'residence: 1940 Ward 4, Canandaigua, Canandaigua City, Ontario, New York', 'spouse: John H Teece', 'parents:', 'children:'
'Edith Teece', 'Census, 1940', 'birth: 1888 England', 'residence: 1940 Smithtown Town, Suffolk, New York', 'spouse:', 'parents:', 'children:'
'St Clair Teece', 'Census, 1940', 'birth: 1867 Pennsylvania', 'residence: 1940 Ward 3, New Castle, New Castle City, Lawrence, Pennsylvania', 'spouse:', 'parents:', 'child: Edward C Teece'
I have a database where I record grades for my students. I would like to create a macro so that every time I record a grade as an "F", the student will receive an email that will contain an attachment of their scores. A lot of the information I want to include in this email is in several different tables. So to make it easier, I have created a query that lists the following:
Students name (SName) Student's email (SEmail) ID# of the form I use to record their grades (ID) ID# of the studen'ts work (WorkID) Date of their work (CreatedDate) Date I graded their work (AuditDate) Grade="F" (Accuracy)
How can I create something that will automate emailing of this information--to the individual student with only their information? I am using Access 2010. If I can't automatically send the emails, I would like to create a button in my audit screen that will send a report containing that student's information to them.
I am working on a website which has over 1000 pages that has the same code, but only a link that is different on each page. So, I thought that I will create a database and work my way from there. I was able to work the code and combine everything. Now would it be possible to export individual record from a query to a file with .html extension? If not, .txt will work as well. However, I want to have another field that would have the file names and the file is saved under that name.The query name is "Code Query" and the field name is "Final Code".
I have 4 users all with the same rights. What I want to do is lock each individual record created by each user from the other 3 users after they have been saved ( I am not referring to record locking/table locking while updating/creating ). i.e., They can all read each others created records BUT only update/modify their own created records. They all have individual passwords to log in.
I have 12,000 cvs that i need to get into An access database so i can start to extract email info etc. They are stored in one folder All Cvs under each of their names edc.txt (i have converted them to .txt) i want to create one table with two fields name (taken from the cv filename and contents (taken fromthe contents of the .txt file). I am using Access 2007.
I am trying to set up a link to a file folder on the computer fore each individual, it is not going to the individual people, it is just going to the one person where I put the link to file.
I would like to export each record of an access table to a separate text file and use one field of each record as the source for the file name of each exported text file. Does anyone know a way of dong this?
I have created a database that generates a report with customer debts. I have a lot of customers and in a report each page is a different customer with individual debts info. What i would like to do is to create a button and distribute individual report page as pdf to individual customer by email. I'm using Lotus notes. I have searched the forums i found something but it was not what i was looking for.
I have an existing Access Database which has a lot data, new records get added every day and a few are modified as well.
I need to write a script/query/exe which will get modified records(since last execution of same script etc.) from Access and export them to a CSV file.
My problem is getting those modified records.. Is there any default timestamp field in Access which can be used? Or do I have to add a new timestamp column for every table?
I have the requirement to write EACH record from a table to its own CSV file with name of the file being combination of 2 fields
So let's say I have Table1 with 3 columns (Field1, Field2, Field3) with following content :
Field1 Field2 Field3 AA 1 ABC AA 2 DEF AA 3 GHI
I should get 3 files with names AA1.CSV, AA2.CSV and AA3.CSV and each file contains its respective row from the table.
I tried to do it with DAO Recordset, but I do not find a way to write only the current record from recordset while looping.
See below the code I was using, but issue is that code does succesfull creates the 3 CSV files as per above example, but in each file it writes ALL 3 ROWS instead only the respective ROW.
Code: Dim db As DAO.Database Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Dim strSQL As String Dim strFilename As String
Hello Everyone,I am trying to perform a sum of records for the table belowSeatType| Ext rent | |Internal rent | Work Transfer 2 2VendorOther 2 3LOB BRF GTI BRF 2 5Displacement so that when I run the query I get the following followingSeatType| Ext rent| |Internal rent| | Total |Work Transfer 2 2 4VendorOther 2 3 5LOB BRF GTI BRF 2 5 7Displaceme What I mean is that from the first table how is it possible to get the results below. The query would generate a new column and place the sum of the data in the each row(record) in the same row in the total column. I would be really grateful. Have been bashing my head all day over this. PS I dont know any VBA. Is it possible without VBA?Thank you.
i am making a contacts database. I have a table to hold the names and addresses of 700 people. I have another table holding the names of the mailing groups those 700 people can be in. One person can be in multiple mailing groups.
i made another table, and i typed in all the people and the multipe groups they were in. For example, a there would be seven records for a person if they belonged to seven groups
then i made a query relating that table to the addresses table. I want to be able to open forms to show an individual group, and cycle through the people in that group only.
i can do this, but access wont let me edit any of the records.
is there somthing wrong with my relationships? how do i tell accesss to allow records be in multiple groups?
I have a button on a report that I want to use to confirm if the contents of a field were prepared or not. Below is the button vba:
Private Sub Command60_Click() 'retrieve the records Static Count As Integer Count = Count + 1 ' Select Case Count
[Code] ....
The problem with this is that it changes the text and background for every button in the report. I want the button to change its text etc for individual records in the report. and not all at one time. In other words I want each record to have a button, and each button associated with each record.
I wish to make an Access DB that will work as a HUB for a few different people in our company to work off of as a means of putting analytical results in tables where a SampleID is given to each sample and is unique. I want to know if there is a way to group any given number of SampleID records together into a 'ProjectGrp' and produce something along the lines of a work order form so the other people in the company can look at a ProjectGrp, see what SampleIDs are part of that group, and then fill in the data for each SampleID.
what i want to do is lock each individual record created by each user from the other 3 users after they have been saved ( I am not referring to record locking/table locking while updating/creating ). ie They can all read each others created records BUT only update/modify their own created records. They all have individual passwords to log in.
Trying to make this code work, don't know how to filter as it prints identical all reports.
Private Sub cmdExportPDF_Click() Dim db As DAO.Database Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Dim MyPath As String MyPath = "C:Reports" If Len(Dir(MyPath, vbDirectory)) < 1 Then MkDir (MyPath)
Not sure if it's possible but I'm trying to create individual calendar's for each staff member and client to put availability and bookings on to them. I've tried using the active x control but it's not really what I want, not sure how else to approach this as my access skills aren't that great.
This probably is a very stupid question but I am a new user and have been pulling my hair out for a week over this. I have created a report and linked it to my table but it generates a list of all of the values in my table on the report. What I want is a way to generate a report page for every row in my database table grouped on a key record that is unique to each data row. If anyone has any advice it will be much appreciated, thanks.
So in my database i'm creating a live form that will open up a list of patients and when they are seen. one of the bits is a button that before they arrive says "Not Arrived" and after they arrive it says "Arrived". The code works fine:
Code: Private Sub Command68_Click() Dim C1 As String Dim C2 As String
[code]...
The problem is after clicking the button on any of the records, it changes the text on all records, to wit: I tried to attach images or links to images, but my post-count is too low. The before-click screenshot is /3QnBkgG on imgur. The after-click screenshot is 9VZWzzp on the same site.
Bear in mind I've only clicked the button (it's white, so it doesn't look like a button) on the top record.The form is set to continuous forms, not sure if that has anything to do with it.how I can get the code to run on individual records, rather than applying the first-record's results across all records?
I have a table that has over 6000 rows with two columns. One a title and the other a memo column with transcripts from interviews (some being extremely long). I do research using content analysis and to do that on these interviews, I need each one saved in its own text file.
Specifically I need to export each transcript into its own text file and save that file using the title from the other column. So I would end up with over 6000 text files all being saved using the title from the corresponding row as the transcript. Is this even possible?
Hi I wonder if anyone can help? I have looked through prevous posts and cant find any answers that fit what I need to do. For reference I am using Access 97 and Word 97.
I want to be able to have a client record open in a form and click a button and for that particular record to merge with a preformatted word doc. I have created a query that gives me all the fields I need (as they are over multiple tables) and I can successfully combine this into a mail merge. But it currently takes *all* the records and I want it to only do the current one. I also want user to be able to click a button somewhere on the form that automates this process for him. Is this possible?
I have investigated transfertext and filled in what I think I should have but it seems to do nothing. It creates another (unopenable) file in the same folder as the word doc and does nothing else. But I am using the 'export word for windows merge' in the tranfertext action?
If I can only crack this I will be happy! Many thanks in advance for any help
well i tried asking for help on this earlier, but i wasn't able to find any help so here is my problem.http://img330.imageshack.us/img330/2850/pictureaccessro7.jpg (http://imageshack.us)the sales - net = profit is fine but what i want to do is have a totals at the very bottem. everytime i try to do this, i can only get the totals to show and each individual record dissapears, or nothing shows at all. i've tried using a report but i can't seem to pull it off either. if anyone knows what i'm talking about and knows what i have to do then please help me :)
So I created a new form that multiple coworkers will have access to. I understand that you can password protect an entire data base, but I was wondering if you could go deeper than that. I have a main form with a combo box (query to show existing IDs) for "ClientID" that links the main form and subform (Its controlsource is ClientID from the table the subform was created off of). If a user selects an existing ClientID, the linked subform pops up with the selected ClientID displayed on the subform in a field along with existing additional information displayed. If The user types in an ID not in the database, a blank subform comes up for the coworker to create this new record and the field for ClientID is blank.
1) How can I make it so that when a coworker types in a ClientID in the combobox that is not in the database, the blank subform that pops up has the ClientID field filled out with what was typed in the main form.
2) Situation: Adding a new client to the main form, and filling out the additional in on the popup subform. I want there to be a field on the main form for "worker". The worker will put their ID and create a new client record. Is it possible to make it only possible for this worker to edit this client record in the future? ...the original creator will be the only one able to edit the information.
-I am thinking maybe have a table with all workers and associated passwords. So, if a user tries to open a subform created by another worker, he will be prompted to enter a password (which will be the one associated to the creator in this "secret" table.
I have a requirement to send a email to individual clients via my access database 2003 . I am using the email address of the client in the current open form . I then created a query using the id to filter that particular client, this query then becomes my record set.The content for the email is held in a .txt file , On my c drive . Every things appears fine however the fonts that I select in the .txt file are not being use in the actual email body. I created a word document with my preferred fonts and copied and pasted them into the .txt file but on sending the email the selected fonts do not appear.
I have attached a demo of what I am trying to do . To test enter your own email in the email address field of the form . Note the .txt file is on the C:/ drive.
I saw a demo that the user could copy and paste a JPG format file physically to ACCESS, and then something happened, and ACCESS could read the JPG length and width size (e.g. 1.3 meter length and 1.15 meter width) into 2 individual ACCESS cells which is acted the same as user input to that 2 clells.
