General :: Opening DB With A Space In Filename Via Command Line

Jan 21, 2013

I am working on supporting spaces in the DB filename. I got the rest of my program working... other than being able to invoke Access with the specified filename for it to open.

Code:
C:Documents and Settingsc_mlueckMy DocumentsFandango>"C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice12MSACCESS.EXE" "Schema Ideas.accdb"

C:Documents and Settingsc_mlueckMy DocumentsFandango>dir "Schema Ideas.accdb"
Volume in drive C has no label.
Volume Serial Number is C8E4-5856

Directory of C:Documents and Settingsc_mlueckMy DocumentsFandango

01/18/2013 04:45 PM 3,203,072 Schema Ideas.accdb
1 File(s) 3,203,072 bytes
0 Dir(s) 125,846,482,944 bytes free

The envoking of MSACCESS.EXE results in:

Does Access 2007 MSACCESS.EXE not support DB's with a space in the file name being spefied to auto-open via command line switches?

General :: Opening Specific Invoice From Command Button

Jul 20, 2014

How to modify an existing database template to meet my needs.

I am trying to create a command button that sits on the order details page and that will open up a report i have created called 'picklist' which is basically the same as an invoice but with some different product information listed on it.

I want the command button to open up the picklist that corresponds to the order that i am on e.g picklist #2 for invoice#2

I have 2 issues/questions:

1) I have seen this code on the internet -

DoCmd.OpenForm "SecondFormName", , , "FieldName = #" & Me.ControlName & "#"

Would this work for me if i was to modidy it to:

DoCmd.OpenForm "PickList", , , "InvoiceID = #" & Me.[txtID] & "#"

2) Where do i input this code? If i click on the 'onclick' in the properties form I am presented with this page (attachment):

General :: CSV Files - Importing Filename That Changes

Jul 2, 2015

I need to import a number of .csv files every day and overwrite the old tables with the data from the new .csv files. However, each day, the filenames will change.

For example,

Day 1: Import fileA 1.csv, fileB 1.csv, fileC 1.csv
Day 2: Import fileA 2.csv, fileB 2.csv, fileC 2.csv
Day 3: Import fileA 5.csv, fileB 5.csv, fileB 6.csv

The files will be named fileA [#].csv, fileB [#].csv, fileC [#].csv, and so on, with a different number each day (with no pattern to the numbers).

Is there a way to write an import specification or VBA script that will import these? Perhaps something that allows a regular expression in the file path so I can import "C:fileA*", "C:fileB*", etc.?

Evaluating Command Line

May 30, 2007

Guys, any idea how to evaluate the command line options used when an Access application is started from a command line.
For example I use the following command line: C:..MyDatabase.mdb /parameters:110001110
Then, in VB, I evaluate the string "110001110" and do the further job.
Is there any property or function to return the command line option string?
Thanks

Short Cut Blues / Command Line Switches / WIF

Feb 14, 2006

Hi Folks,

This may not be an Access problem per se, and if not, I appologize in advance.

I have a FE/BE split database with multiple users. I have found out how to add a command line switch to the shortcuts (the shortcut must go to the application first for any switches to work) which opens the database front end nicely. Problem is, I can't get it to connect to the appropriate WIF.

I have tried copying the text from "Microsoft Access Inside Out" which didn't work as it has "/wrkgroup" rather than "/wrkgrp". My set up wouldn't accept that.

Anyway I'm half way there but stuck now. I don't get any error messages when I use the shortcuts but Access stays joined to whatever WIF it was connected to the last time it was running.

I have searched this site but couldn't find anything regarding this specific problem, in the recent past at least.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

I have copied the details from the 2 shortcuts below. The first is to my database and the networked WIF, the second to Access to return the desktop PC to the default WIF. I have also added the Access version number and operating system version numbers.

This is the shortcut to my database with the workgroup switch set to the WIF created for this database:

Target:
"C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE11MSACCESS.EXE" "C:EDT DBWC-ED0023001R0.02a-fe.mdb" /wrkgrp "K:EDT FOLDEREDT DBED.00.23.001_WIF.mdw"

Start In:
"C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE11"

Network Drive WIF Path:
K:EDT FOLDEREDT DBED.00.23.001_WIF.mdw

This shortcut is supposed to restore Access to the default WIF on the desktop PC:

Target:
"C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE11MSACCESS.EXE" /wrkgrp "C:Documents and SettingsQPUserApplication DataMicrosoftAccessSystem.mdw"

Start In:
"C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE11"

Desktop WIF Path:
C:Documents and SettingsQPUserApplication DataMicrosoftAccessSystem.mdw

Access path:
C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE11Access.exe

Access Version:
2003 (11.6355.6408) SP1

Environment:
OS NameMicrosoft Windows XP Professional
Version5.1.2600 Service Pack 1 Build 2600

Thanks in advance,

Keith.

How To Enter Commands In Command Line To Type Queries

Oct 3, 2014

I have had my 4th SQL/APP Dev lab class, however I missed the 5th.

Our 5th lab was .

1. Create 3 tables, populate with given data and create relationships. 'Customer, Invoice, Payment'

2. We were given 8 queries to try do, we had to come up with which commands would be used.

I have no 1 completed.

As for no 2.. we are still learning all the commands, so the lab here is for us to find what commands we think will be used. I have researched and have them all 6 queries we have to run.., I have all those commands written out on paper which I think are answers..how to find the command line to test them.

I'm using Access 2007 on Windows 7.

Correct Syntax To Write Command Line Able To UPDATE More Than One Field In Table

Nov 24, 2014

what is the correct syntax to write a command line able to UPDATE more than one field in the table records having multiple WHERE criteria.

Here is my challenge:My TableI has the columns A, B, C and D which are populated, for example, as follows:

TableI
A B C D
1 2
2 6 4 3

1 7 5 9
1 2
2 5 8 5
etc.

I also have a FormII which updates TableII. Among the existing fields of TableII there are the fields C and D (same as above). When saving data entry thru the save button of the FormII, fields C and D will be naturally saved on the TableII. Well, I also want C and D info updated into Table I as well, but only when field A=1 and B=2.So what I need (for the click event of the button save in the FormII) is to open TableI and either insert or update it with the values of the fields C and D in every record WHERE A=1 AND B=2.For instance, assuming C=& and D=%, the desired result should be as follows:

TableI
A B C D
1 2 & %
2 6 4 3
1 7 5 9
1 2 & %
2 5 8 5

I did not find any examples in the net including multiple criteria..Here is what I wrote unsuccesfully:

Private Sub BtSalvarFrmII_Click()
CurrentDb.execute "UPDATE TableI"
Set FieldC = Forms!FrmII!FieldC.value AND Set FieldD = Forms!FrmII!FieldD.value WHERE FieldA = 1 AND FieldB = 2
Docmd.save
Docmd.close
End Sub

What would be the correct syntax?

General :: Can Put Back End Of Database On Web Space?

Jul 31, 2013

I have a database which is split so that several people can have a 'front end' to the database to access one common back end. This works fine on a network but I thought I could load the backend up to my webspace and then with the links manager point to it, but it doesn't work. I get an error report of 'not a valid file name.'

The website is [URL] .... and the backend database name is Probus_data_A.accdb and so I entered [URL] .... as the address in link manager.

Opening A Password Protected Excel File From A Command Button In Access

Dec 22, 2006

Hi All,
I have three excel files (ActualHires.xls, ActualPromotions.xls and
ActualSeparation.xls). These are password protected files (with the
same password). They are linked to an access database and whenever the
files are opened, one must supply the password and click the 'Enable
automatic refresh button.' What I was wondering was if this could be
done in access with a command button. I have pasted some code below
that I found but now I'm getting an error.
This is the code:

Dim BookNames As Variant
Dim B As Long


BookNames = Array("O:ExcelFilesActualHires.xls",
"O:ExcelFilesActualPromotions.xls",
"O:ExcelFilesActualSeparations.xls")


For B = LBound(BookNames) To UBound(BookNames)
WorkBooks.Open FileName:=BookNames(B), _
UpdateLinks:=3, Password:="*******"
WorkBooks(B).Close SaveChanges:=False
Next B


But when I click the button, I get this error:
Run-time error '9' Subscript out of range.


and this line is highlighted:
WorkBooks(B).Close SaveChanges:=False


Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks.
