View RepliesI am using some vba code (see below) to put some data into the clipboard for pasting elsewhere.But it seems to fail sometimes, I think it fails when the data is too long.Is there a maximum?
The code below fails on the stmt, "DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy" No specific error msg, just the dreaded "Microsoft Access Must Close...."It seems to happen when the length of the textbox is over 1000 characters.I tried inserting some DoEvents statements, but it made no difference.
Private Sub btnCopy_Click()
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("tblLogs", dbOpenDynaset, dbSeeChanges)
If rst.RecordCount = 0 Then
rst.Close
Set rst = Nothing

I am trying to copy a caption from a form to the clipboard so that I can later paste it into another application.
The code I have found via a search on this website 1) Clears the clipboard and then 2) copies the caption from a nominated field. 2) doesn't work as I sure I have the statements wrong.
Call EmptyClipboard
Me.B7_DB_GCUH.Caption
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy
I am looking to create a button in access that will allow a field to be copied the the clipboard based on information in a query and then separated by a ";" and then can be pasted in another program.
I have created a database to keep track of membership. In the Member Personal Info Table I have collected their email address's and then created a query "Active Member Personal Info" for Active Members to have their name and Email displayed in the query. Now I am trying to take the 140 members email address and paste it in a gmail BCC line by clicking paste rather than doing each individual record and then copying and pasting.
I'm after a macro or something to allow me to map a button on a form so that when it's pressed it copy's a certain field to the clipboard?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI found the following code to copy the results of a query to the clipboard.
Code:
DoCmd.OpenQuery "DataLoadTemp_qry", acViewNormal, acEdit
DoCmd.SelectObject acQuery, "DataLoadTemp_qry"
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSelectAllRecords
RunCommand acCmdCopy
DoCmd.Close acQuery, "DataLoadTemp_qry", acSaveNo
It works great, except that it is also copying the column headings. Is there any way to copy only the results without the headings?
I'm copying this data to the clipboard because I want to be able to paste it in a program called DataLoad which will load this data into one of our company's legacy systems.
I'm trying to copy the outcome of a query to the clipboard. as follows
DoCmd.OpenQuery "changeboard query", acViewNormal, acEdit
DoCmd.SelectObject acQuery, "CHANGEBOARD QUERY"
RunCommand acCmdCopy
DoCmd.Close acQuery, "Changeboard query", acSaveNo
It doesn't work because in the open query there is nothing selected.
If I select the lines by hand the copy command works fine.
However I can't find the command in VBA to select all the lines in the query.
I have a form with two Text box fields "Username" & "Password"
I want to create a copy button next to each field that will copy the contents to the clipboard.
The password field has the code:
Code:
Private Sub Command228_Click()
Me!Password.SetFocus
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy
End Sub
The username field has the code:
Code:
Private Sub Command229_Click()
Me!Username.SetFocus
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy
End Sub
The Username copy button for some reason gives me the following error:
Run-time error '438': Object doesn't support this property or method
Why it doesn't like this field?
I am copying a range from excel (multiple rows) and paste it directly to access table using:
Code : DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdPasteAppend
Sometimes it does not work and I need to use paste special as text.
Is there any way to paste special as text using VBA ?
I have a question regarding copy-pasting the access headers. I want to copy paste Access headers from a design view from one acess file to another file in the same format. Currently I can only copy-paste them one by one. How to copy paste it column by column?
View 9 Replies View RelatedIn my database I have a field with contents I want to copy and then paste into Excel. Whilst in development, I've made sure the field is visible so that I can see when it has any content. I have placed a button next to the field that copies its content to the clipboard. This works fine and can be confirmed if I open Notepad and paste the content into it with no issues.
The problem starts when I open Excel. I've tried opening it using another button and manually and the same thing happens when I try and paste the clipboard content into it. It's empty! I can't even directly paste into Notepad once Excel has opened. However, if I go back to the database with Excel already open in the background, I can hit my copy button and the content pastes into Excel with no issues. This proves my code is fine.
I know how to put things on to the clipboard, DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy
I just want to view the current contents of the clipboard in access 2003 using vba.
I Found this code whilst searching for a solution:-
Dim DataObj As New MSForms.DataObject
DataObj.GetFromClipboard
MyString = DataObj.GetText
But it needs the Microsoft Forms2 Object Library
This is not in the list of references, how to get it?
Or how to read the clipboard a different way.
I'm working with several different source datasets. Mostly this are TXT files.
When I import the data in a new table with a specification, I want to validate if the dataset is the correct dataset be validating the headers in the source data.
I have created a table with the headers, that consists of 92 columns. Below 3 example columns of the header data:
tbl_Tickets_Headers
Field1 Field2 Field3
StagnationId TicketTypeId SequenceNr
Now I want to check during the import of the imported data has a line in it that is equal to the data in the table headers. If not, the import stops and informs the user that the data set is not correct. This to prevent that incorrect data will be inserted into the database.
Some extra information: The data is import into the database via VBA DoCmd.TransferText into a new created table, using an inport specification.
If the data is okay, it will be appended to an existing table that is being used to process the data further. After that the import table is being deleted.
I have a table of items for our companies quotes. When we go to print out our quotes to send to the customers, the salespeople would like most of the items to be grouped under certain "headers" for the systems they are part of.
Ex:
Autopilot System
Part #1 Qty 2
Part #2 Qty 1
PA/GA System
Part #4 Qty 4
Part #5 Qty 1
My 'Items' table currently has these fields:
ID (PK)
System_ID (FK for 'Systems' table)
Part_No
Qty
etc...
'Systems' table has these:
ID (PK)
Sys_Description
I have a query using a RIGHT JOIN and a GROUP BY to tie everything together, I'm just not certain how to go about displaying the information the way I did above.
Am I right in thinking that the a listbox.itemcount increases by 1 if you include headers.
ie - the headers are counted as a row?
Basically I want to import an excel file that doesn't have any column headings and the data starts on row 4. I already have a table with all of the column headings set in Access.
My research led me to create an import specification and then edit that in the 'mSysIMEXSpecs' Table to Start on Row 4 and then use that spec in VBA to transfer the file to my table. That all seems good, but it seems like an Import Spec only gets saved to the 'mSysIMEXSpecs' Table if you are importing a text file. Nothing gets saved there for Excel.
Would it be ok just to make a copy of the BE file (every so often) rather than to make a copy via code?The user can then just paste over the original if it becomes corrupt.

View 1 Replies View RelatedSometimes extensive updates have to be made to a table using an update query or loop through a record set.
In order to be able to undo changes in case of a mistake I am thinking about the following procedure:
In code:
1 - Make a copy of the table
2 - Make the changes in the original
3 - Check if updates are correct and if so: delete the copy and if not:
delete the default table and rename the copy so it will be the original.
Is that common practice or not?
I'd like to be able to show recruiters the database as an example of my work (to get an interview, etc.). Of course, I can't just show them a copy of the database with all of the private information on it, so I'd like to be able to show them a copy of the database with no records. Is there a way to export/copy it so I can do this in Access 2007?

xCopy C:PDF995OUTPUT*.* P:Billing1297344137.pdf /y
I might note that there is only one file in C:PDF995OUTPUT at a time.

In one table (Alpha1) I have a person's general information (e.g., name, SSN, address, phone number, etc.).
I have a person enter his or her SSN and the general information is populated.
I want the person to click on an icon and all the Alpha1 information is transferred to a new table (same field names), then bring up that same record in a new form.
I'll do the work. I simply need the general concept of making this work.

I am trying to copy a table and paste as another name. I do this all the time with this table as it is a process I have to do. It is giving me a -1524 error. I also tried to export it to another database and it won't allow that either. I get the same error.
I have tried this with other tables and it does fine.
