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.
View RepliesI 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.
Hi All,
Yes ok DDE may well be dead but it works for me so why change it? Basically I wondered what the commands where to format Excell cells. For example if I stamp a cell with todays date:
DDEPoke intChan1, "R3C2", Left(Now(), 10)
How would I say shade that cell black, change the lettering to white or underline or bold that cell?
Any help most appreciated.

I receive a bunch of excel files with items to be added to a database. some of the items are to be added as new, some to be deleted and others to be modified.
I identify the action (add/delete/modify) by looking at a column in the excel file e.g. column A.
At this point I am fine with the add/delete because I can filter the data or bring all the files to a temporary table in an Access database via vba script and then running queries to do the rest.
My issue is that the spreadsheets have a lot of columns and for the modifications what they do is use the same file for instance, make changes on the cells (any cell) that need modification and then highlight, bold or underline only the items that need modification and ignore the rest of the file (a tedious process since I have to then open each file and manually modify the database).
I delete the old 10MB table and import a new 10MB table and now the the DB is 20MB - why is not 10MB - number of records is about the same not double. DB works fine and you can't tell any difference except the size.

I've written a vba macro that takes data from Excel, processes it into an XML file & then imports into Access.All fields were fine apart from the date field, which appeared in the Access table as "00:00:00"...The date in the XML was appearing as 01/01/2014.
Code:
dateTemp = [date here]
xmlFieldElement.Text = Year(dateTemp) & "-" & Format(Month(dateTemp), "00") & "-" & Format(Day(dateTemp), "00") & "T00:00:00"
This produces 2014-01-01T00:00:00...Note, putting the date into reverse order without the formatting also causes the import to result in 00:00:00
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.

Is it possible to import an excel spreadsheet which contains some merged cells. What I have got is a spreadsheet (like Raw Data in the zip file) and I need it looking like (Finish Data) but in a access table.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a few problems and I want them to be able to be done from switchboard:
1. Is there a way for me to export a particular report (after selecting it) to a closed excel template, that is formatted? It would open the excel template (that has a logo and column headings), export data to below the column headings, then save the file with a unique name?
2. Also, a way to import data from an excel file, after allowing the user to select file? Only data below the column headings mentioned above. Same data will be appended to existing table.
I am trying to write a VBA Module that will look in a directory for Excel files with a specific file prefix, and then import specified cells into a temp table. Once it processes the first file, it copies the file to another folder, and then kills the file. However, when I run my current code, it goes through the loop the first time, but fails on the second attempt, because it is still looking for the first file it came across even though it has been moved. The code is pasted below:
Sub Count()
Dim xlwrksht As Excel.Worksheet
Dim xlWrkBk As Excel.Workbook
Dim nIndex As Integer
Dim strMvPath As String
Dim mvPath As String
Dim strFile As String
[Code] ....
Is it possible (using the menu or VBA code) to find out the size of the objects in an Access database file?For example if the .accdb file is 300Mb, is there any way of comparing the size of the numerous tables/forms/reports/queries etc, that make up the database?(I know that if I created a new access file and imported the objects from the working database that could give an indication but that would be quite a repetitive process).

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am using Access 2007 database in work environment. When one of my colleagues tried to update some records in a table, it created a backup of the database.
The issue is that the size of the actual database is much smaller than the size of the backup. However all the data are present and I don't think any data has been deleted.
But I don't know why there is a difference in size?
Some of the tables in the database are linked from MS SQL Server.
I'm trying to import an XML file into my access database using an XSL Transform (I only need certain bits of data), however when I import the tables and field names come through fine now but the only values that come through are the last values listed in the XML file... for instance when i import high there would be 10 high values but only the last one comes through.I would obviously like the "Day" field to be a date/time field in access, and the high and low to be a number field in access... but this is back-burner to solving the real issue listed up top.This is my XSL file:

I have a form that utilizes a combo box with 2 options: 0 & 0.5. If I select 0.5 on the combo box the field in the table records it as 2. Why doesn't it reflect as 0.5? And how do I fix it?
This is the general info that I have for the field properties:
Field Size - Double
Decimal Places - 1
Default Value - 0
I have a field in my table where I could enter time, I have formatted the field as "Short Time" with date/time data type. I have added a Input Mask for the time with 00:00 so we could only type 1530 quickly and it would taken it as 15:30 time. As there are thousands of entries each day, I have a quick question for the time. If we have time 8:30 AM, we have to input 0830 and it would enter it as 08:30 and its little odd to first enter "0" and then 830, Is it possible we could only enter 830 and it will taken the time as 08:30 and the rest of the things works like the same as it is working right now.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a .accdb with security where ihave hidden navigation pane and toolbars...
Now left with one more thing, is it possible to disable anyone trying to import stuff from my database?
Maybe some code or is there a setting somewhere in current db?
I tried splitting my main database in Access 2010 but came up with a 'subscript out of range' error, so in order to solve this, I've imported all my database objects into a new database. The splitting process (and other problems like web incompatibility) issue is now solved and works fine, but for some weird reason, all the objects that are one particular shade of blue in the forms and reports (shape fill, outlines, text colour) have changed to red.
Blue: Accent 1, Darker 25% (the colour i want)
Red: Accent 2, Darker 25% (the colour it changes to)
There is no code anywhere that specifies these colours in any sense, and even importing single forms at a time as a test yields the same result. I could change them all back manually to the right blue, but seeing as there are around 900 forms and reports, each with multiple labels/shapes etc...well you get the point.
