General :: Import Error - Deleted And Lost Records

Jun 3, 2013

I'm getting an import error that records are being 3 records being deleted and one lost due to violations. However when I go back to check the data that was imported I can't find anything missing. Any clues on what could cause the error but still import the data.

Relationships Lost And Record Deleted

Oct 17, 2007

I have a peculiar problem.

The sequence of events is:

1. The user reports that on clearing (deleting) data in a memo field within a table an error (sometimes) occurs which results in all fields for that record containing the word #deleted. The table can no longer be opened for update via a form. (Prior to deleting the data in the memo field the user had been using copy/paste data from the memo field into other fields within the record)

2. When I open the table in datasheet view, there is a record filled with # signs usually at the beginning of the table. I delete that ( I believe that is all that is left of the original record - but there is no other identifying data).

3. The primary key (autonumber) of that table is reset i.e. it is no longer designated as the primary key. I recreate it in table design.

4. All relationships with that Primary key are deleted.

5. I recreate the relationships, run a compact and repair and all is well except that the original record is lost and has to be recreated as well.

All this because a user deleted some data in a memo field!

The DB is split with the BE on a Windows 2003 Server and the users running their FEs on a Lan. Only Access 2003 is used.

I cant replicate the problem on my development system.

Any ideas very welcome

General :: Records Being Deleted In A Related Table When Not Supposed To

Jun 13, 2014

I am losing records in one table when I delete from another, i.e., I do want to delete records in one, but the related records in the other are also being deleted. This was not happening until I did a recent up date.I created a database in Access 2002 about 8 years ago and my client has been using it successfully ever since. I have occasionally made updates and enhancements. They have over the years upgraded and are now on Office 2010. I'm still using Access 2002.

I recently (3 weeks ago) added a new feature and installed the new code. The database is split, code and data. The new feature was working well, but suddenly they were losing records and they cannot operate until I have it resolved. I spent 2 hours today in their office and could not work out why it was happening.

I have a straight forward client table with names and addresses and some other information. I have another table which links together Clients, Counsellors and Supervisors and works out a room allocation for Therapy sessions. Once the Therapy sessions have been completed, we need to delete the Client, Counsellor, Supervisor + room allocation, but we do not want to delete the Client record in the Client table. The User is offered the opportunity to either archive the client record or not archive it, that's all. The Archive procedure is simply to put a tick in the "Archive" field, not delete the record.

However, when the Client, Counsellor, Supervisor + room allocation is deleted, it is also removing the Client record. I do have a relationship between Clients, Counsellor, Supervisor, but it doesn't have "enforce referential integrity", it is just a one-to-one relationship. The odd thing is that when I delete the allocation here at home on my Access 2002 system, it does not delete the Client Record, but it does in their office, using exactly the same code and data.

The Allocation is on a sub form and the way they delete is by highlighting the Allocation and then clicking on the X - Delete button on the Access menu (the program is not very sophisticated, but has worked until now). I have some code in the "on delete" event, but even if I take out all the code and just allow the deletion with the usual Access message "you are about to delete 1 record... " I have seen that the related Client record gets deleted at the same time. it does not happen on my system, only in their office.

General :: Audit Trail - Capture Occurrences When Multiple Records Selected To Be Deleted

Jan 15, 2013

I've always used an audit trail for tracking changes of records that already exist but I have had a situation come up where I now need to track records that have been deleted. For example, if I delete a record in the datasheet view.

I've seen several examples how to do this, with the most common seeming to store the data into a temporary table while waiting for the delete confirmation. If I am reading the notes correctly, it's done this way to capture occurrences when multiple records are selected to be deleted. Is this the best approach for this type of task?

General :: Making Use Of Import Error Tables

Mar 27, 2013

I am attempting to set up a saved import procedure in an Access database that will be run programmatically using docmd.RunSavedImportExport. The source document is an Excel file.My goal is to trap any import errors caused by inconsistencies in the source data. I'd also like to provide the user with some small amount of feedback on what is causing these errors.

My initial thought was to make use of the "File_ImportErrors" table that is generated following an unsuccessful import. *Not once* has this import procedure consistently generated an error table - sometimes the table is created, sometimes it isn't.

I have tried changing the file format of the import file to comma- and tab-delimited files, respectively. Both of these formats do consistently generate an error table, however none of the error values in the table are accurate - it reports a slew of type conversion errors for fields that are completely consistent and unproblematic, whilst completely overlooking conspicuous errors from text strings in date fields.

I have tried the same import, both procedurally and manually, using all available Excel and text-delimited formats, with the same respective results.I notice that nearly every thread on AWF pertaining to error tables discusses how to delete them, rather than make effective use of them. I suspect this is perhaps why?

General :: Import Error Using Collect Data Emails

Sep 10, 2014

I created a form for adding new data to an existing database and it worked just fine.

Today the form has decided to add time to the date field and this clashes with the table it import to.

Why/how it's changed the date format and how to change it back?

Delimited Date/Time Fields Being Deleted On Import?

May 21, 2007

For anyone that might be able to help me out, I'd very much appreciate it, as this is now number 2 stupid workaround that I'd like to resolve before I need counselling...;)

I have a Date/Time field that I'm importing into my database via .csv files. The field is setup like the example below in every .csv file:

4/2/2007 8:30:00 AM

Access keeps throwing errors and deleting all the field values in this field whenever I try to import. I know that Access does this when a Date/Time field includes data that is not delimited, but these field values seem to be perfectly formatted to me... what can I do to stop Access from chucking these on import?

Right now I'm just importing the data into a "text" field, and then changing it to "date/time" afterwards, but I'm worried that once the table gets too long I won't be able to re-index all those records anymore and my database will be useless since it depends on that field being "date/time" format...

All those better than I feel free to show me how and where I've been stupid:D

General :: Date Import From Excel To Access - Type Mismatch Error

Sep 17, 2014

So I have a macro in excel which imports data from the excel sheet to a table in access db. Now the excel file has 4 columns which have dates.

- I imported the excel file from access via access so that I can get the heading of the table and the table is created. Then I deleted all the data in the table.
- When the table was imported 2 of the date columns got set as Short/text data type. Dont know why.
- Now, if I leave the data type as it is in Access table, my macro button in EXCEL works fine and imports the data to Access. If I change the data type, in access design, of the two data columns to date type, I get the type mismatch error when I run the import macro button in EXCEL.

I am going nuts over this error. I even created a blank table in access and defined data types to all columns which would be imported from excel. but still excel macro button shows the same error.

I checked the format of all the four date columns is date.

I did a lot of hit and try and could it be the case that if access table fields are defined properly, but any of the data columns cells in excel sheet is null/empty, it will show the type mismatch error.

ALTERNATIVELY, is it possible and is there a way, that once the data is imported to access, I can convert the value in the column from short text to date type.

Record Is Deleted Error Message

Aug 3, 2006

By: Tony Hine (mail@TonyHine.co.UK)
Tel: +44 1635 522233
My profile on ecademy (http://www.ecademy.com/user/tonyhine)

I had a problem importing just one table I kept getting the message “Record is deleted” and no records were imported.

First I thought it may be because there were quite a few columns in the table so I tried importing just one column, however I got the same message “Record is deleted“ .

I considered it could be because the database was originally in a Company office workgroup. I wondered if the “Work group security” was causing the problem. I read up on this and found that importing the objects directly into a new database was one of the recommended ways of circumventing this problem. This was what I was already doing! So what was wrong?

Next idea, I exported all of the records into an excel spreadsheet. This was successful! So I then re-imported the records from the spreadsheet back into a table in the database.

There were a couple of problems, in that all of the text fields were converted to 255 character length. Although annoying I thought I could handle this problem. I proceeded making a few changes to this database, then I noticed that one of the fields that had been imported was originally a “Memo field” it had been converted to a text field with 255 characters. As soon as I noticed, I checked to see if any data had been lost by comparing this field with the original data. I found a significant loss of data so back to the drawing board!

All of the other tables had imported correctly, only this one seemed to be giving problems, I had tackled the size problem it was not a big table by MS Access standards, but I felt it could be the size, In particular the number of fields could be causing this error. But just trying to import one field at a time hadn’t worked?

Then it dawned on me what if I tried to import one record at a time --- that worked! So I wrote the query with a between statement I tried 10, then a 100, then a thousand records it worked fine! However when I tried 5000 records the error re-occurred?

I realized that I probably had some corrupt data in the table, so I set about systematically extracting a limited number of records until I found the area where the corruption was.

This worked but returned “0” records --- Between 11001 And 12000

“Between 12001 And 13000” Got error message “Record is deleted”

I got to 12800 all ok

12900 caused error

Error is in a record between 12800 and 12900

I will continue to whittle it down!

OK to 12819

The corrupt record is: 12820

I had found the corrupt record! Now all I had to do was create two queries one each side of this corrupt record to extract the information.

On inspection of this corrupt record I discovered that the memo field contained the following: “#Deleted “ I am going to attempt to modify the memo field and see if it fixes the corruption of the database.

My attempt at modifying the corrupt record, in particular the memo field containing “#Deleted” caused the error message to re-occur. “Record is deleted”

I have made a copy of the actual record 12820 and pasted it into a spreadsheet to send to the customer so that it can be checked in the existing data on their system.

Fortunately there were no related records in other tables affected.

#error - #deleted - No Valid Bookmark??

Sep 21, 2005

Hi all,

one of the databases at my place has started acting really strange and was wondering if anyone knows what could possibly be wrong?

there's only one big tble holding about 7.5 k records with approx 10 fields

info that was entered yesterday has now been deleted (by access?) and when you scroll down or go down to the end records, all those records that were there yesterday now show either #error or #deleted and then an error popup appears saying "Not Valid Bookmark"

The UID doesn't appear to be working either, i.e it's not incrementing properly?

any ideas?

General :: Large Table Import / Way To Import Tables To Access

Sep 17, 2013

I want to make a database of diseases (need to learn them for school and would like a serchable database on my smart phone for future reference).
Unfortunately spent a lot of time making hundreds of pages of word tables before i realized a database would be better. See attached image or pdf. Is there a way to import the tables to Access?

I need to preserve the hierarchic info in the nested bullet point lists. E.g. under treatment i might have a point called Acute treatment, with sub-levels, Step 1, Step 2, etc. with their own sub-levels. I need to maintain this relational hierarchic info.

Records Deleted

Feb 13, 2006

I enter records into MS Access and then when I close it and reopen it, every once in awhile records that I entered previously are deleted. I am new to Access so it may be a simple problem such as saving the database but it is extremely frusturating when I enter customers into a database and then reopen it to find out voila half the customers I entered are not there. If anyone can help me it would be really appreciated. Thank you.

Records Getting Deleted

Feb 16, 2005

This has got me stumped.

We have a massive db and on one of the screens the users can scroll through the records and view information they can also add new records. When the users enter the new record and go back to it it has been successfully stored in the relevant table even on exitin the form via the exit button (DoCmd.Close). However from time to time when the user enters the new record and closes the for via the close form button the new entry is not stored in the table and seems to have been deleted or not appended to the table.

We have no idea why this is happening as it doesnt happen all the time just from time to time.

Can anyone help please or has anyone come across this before !

Thanks for any help !

Lost Records Due To Power Cut

Apr 11, 2007

Hi All,

We've just had a power cut and 2 of us were in the process of adding a record to the database. The primary field is an Autonumber and, on re-entering the information for the record, we have found that 2 numbers are missing.

Ie. instead of record numbers 1,2,3,4, we now only have 1 & 4. Is there any way of retrieving 2 & 3?

And is there something I can/should do in order to prevent this problem from reoccuring?

We have the Autonumber facility so that, when we add a new record, it automatically enters the next number. Is there a formula I can use so that the default value when adding the record is the number of the previous record + 1?

With thanks for any assistance.

Ronnie

Tracking Deleted Records

How to track deleted records? I have a database that users login to and it tracks which records they make changes to but I do not have a way to track a deleted record. I read online about doing like an archive of the record to a table that will hold the deleted record and that made the most sense to me.
