Is there a way to use a variable in an SQL statement?
Something like this:
Code:
dim mysql1, newname
newname = inputbox("direction on what to do go here?",,)
mysql1 = "INSERT INTO FinalAll SELECT newname.* FROM newname;"
DoCmd.RunSQL mysql1
Where newname would be a variable assigned from an input box.
I want to populate a single table from several different tables but have the user specify which tables to use.
I want to build an SQL statement in code which includes the value stored in a string variable where the variable name includes a loop counter.
This is a much simplified example of what I am trying to do:
Dim i as integer
dim Strtable1 as string
dim Strtable2 as string
dim Sqlstring as string
...
Strtable1 = "tblEmployees"
Strtable2 = "tblSales"
...
Sqlstring = " select * from ... where....."
for i = 1 to 10
DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO " & StrTable & i & sqlstring
Next i
I am not sure how to get the table names stored in the string variables into the SQL statement. When I try the above it looks for a variable named StrTable, not StrTable1, StrTable2 etc.
Hi All,
Basically I'm trying to filter records from a view in my listbox based on a value in a text box. As such...
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Me.SearchResults.RowSource = "SELECT * FROM PatientSearch WHERE Surname = " & Form_frmMain.txtName
End Sub
**Note that this the value I'm trying to pull is from a seperate form.
My statement works fine as long as I don't use a variable ie.
Me.SearchResults.RowSource = "SELECT * FROM PatientSearch WHERE Surname = 'Agnew' "
I'm sure it may be a simple syntax problem but I fairly new at this. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Can some one please help with my SQL statement. Having trouble with getting the like statement to work with my session variable.
Here's the code I am using thus far.
<% If Session("PhoneN") Then %>
<%
dim objcn1,objrst2,sql4
set objcn1 = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
set objrst2 = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.RecordSet")
sql4 = "SELECT * FROM [Bill To Customers] WHERE CompanyPhone LIKE '%' & PhoneN & '%' "
I'm trying to run this very very simple code but I get a Run-time error '3450' Syntax error in query. Incomplete query clause. For sure the problem is the variable I used as Table parameter but I cannot understand where my error is :
Private Sub cmdRunCheck_Click()
Dim strSQL As String
Dim strTempTbl As String
strTempTbl = "tblCheckDoubles"
strSQL = "DELETE * FROM " & "'" & strTempTbl & "'"
CurrentDb.Execute strSQL, dbFailOnError
End Sub
What is clear is that if I use this line the Sub is working smoothly
strSQL = "DELETE * FROM tblCheckDoubles"
Please do not tell me that it is not possible to use a variable as Table parameter....
Is there a way to pass a variable to the GOTO statement?

I want to include a string variable in the WHERE clause of the SQL statement. The string variable is introduced in the DIM statement before coming up to the SQL statement.
The following is the SQL statement. numrukarta is the string variable I want to introduce. I need to know the exact punctuation to be able to insert it into this statement.
StrSq1 = " SELECT Employees.NName, Employees.SSurname, WorkItems.IDcardNo, WorkItems.DDate, WorkItems.EntryTime, WorkItems.FinishTime, WorkItems.Roster" _

I want to use a variable as FieldName in the DLookup function.
Normal DLookup:
Code:
DLookup("FieldName" , "TableName" , "Criteria= 'string'")
I want to use:
Code:
DLookup(variable, "TableName", "Criteria= 'string'")
Where variable is an integer, which represents the column number in the table.
Is this possible?

TextBox1 is Rich Text:-
I want to replace my String ("Evidence required of this please" ) in this code 1) following which works fine, with a variable (textToPaste) as in code 2) which doesn't work.
1) TextBox1 = "<div><font style=""BACKGROUND-COLOR:#FFFF00"">Evidence required of this please</font>"
2) TextBox1 = "<div><font style=""BACKGROUND-COLOR:#FFFF00"">textToPaste</font>"
Can I persuade the statement to accept "textToPaste" as a variable and not a normal string?

I have a printed form that pulls some of its data from a table.What i need is that printed form to have a variable that two area in the form can change based on who is printing the form.I have a table that has all the users data in it. the current form pulls that information from the label and places it into the for. easy enough so far right.
for example. But i need this printed form to be able to be dynamic. So for instance Tom inst sitting that the computer wanting to print the form and so on for four different users who will print the form.So the button that allows the print either needs a way to have a selection or i need four different button. So the second part of this Mark Twain quits his job and Johnny takes his place. easy enough to change the data in the table that my form is pulling the data from but the button label needs to change to that the button.
i have got a query that returns the top 100 results. i would like to link this to my report form where i have a text box that you can enter a number and the query returns the first of that ammount rather than going into the query everytime to adjust the results.the sql of the query is as follows
PHP Code:
SELECT TOP 100 tblClientDetails.FirstName, tblClientDetails.Surname, Sum(tblOrdersItems.Cost)
AS SumOfCostFROM (tblClientDetails INNER JOIN tblOrders ON tblClientDetails.ClientDetailsID = tblOrders.ClientDetailsID)
INNER JOIN tblOrdersItems ON tblOrders.OrderID = tblOrdersItems.OrderIDWHERE (((tblOrders.OrderDate)>DateAdd('yyyy',-1,Date())))
GROUP BY tblClientDetails.FirstName, tblClientDetails.SurnameORDER BY Sum(tblOrdersItems.Cost) DESC;
I have a form I use to create photo captions. The form has a field where users can edit a pre-generated caption and a field that stores their updates as a final caption in the field "selected_caption".. On my form is a button that runs the code below to check and see if a field ("updated") has been marked true, then copies the content of caption field into the selected_caption field. It works fine 90 percent of the time but for some reason this caption:
LA 109535, LA109535 partial site overview showing blowout with PL's 01- 04. Crew person is excavating a shovel test probe. Photo direction facing southwest. (Roll 31066, Frame 4958)
Results in a missing operator error. I thought it was like a special character thing, so I removed the "'" and the "-". Same error.
Code:
Dim db As Database

I have a database structure with a series of queries which are all inter-linked.
I want my database to be user friendly, what is the cleanest way to be able to enter a single variable eg as a criteria for a query - say the date, rather than having to change it in a series of queries manually, can I call it from somewhere?
Is there a means of making an application grow/shrink to accommodate different screen sizes? eg. not all users of a distributed application will necessarily have the same screen size.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a form (Datasheet). I need to define some variable in form as string, which can work with any event. E.G in column "A"on event after update, in column "B" on event after update...
I will try to explain with a simple example : form (datasheet) columns: "A", "B"
on event after update in coulmn "A", I could have some like this:
(variable what I need to define) = 3
on event after update in coulmn "B", I could have some like this:
If (variable what I need to define) = 3 then
msgbox "ok"
end if
Now I try to work around the problem and use another column "c" to keep the value from after update A - but I know that, it's bad solution -Right?
I need to identify and parse (substring) a number of digits from a barcode. The barcode digit count will vary, based on the number of details included in the barcode.
For example: the barcode for GS1 DataBar begins with a 4 digit code of 8110 identifying the code as GS1. The 5th digit then identifies the number of digits directly following which constitute the manufacturers code, which can range anywhere from 6 digits to 12 digits. I need to pull the number of digits out of the barcode based on the value of the 5th digit placeholder and pull only that many digits from the string and replace them into another field. There are potentially 70 total digits in the barcode. I have only provided the first section, which I am asking the question on.
Simply put: I need to tell the substring to identify the number to parse from digit 5, (which will have a min of 6 digits and a max of 12)
How do I pull the information out of a string to create a substring in another field by first defining the number of digits to pull out (Digits 6 to 17 min of 6 digits and a max of 12 digits) based on a value within the string (digit 5= value)
So if Digit 5 is 6 the returned value would be: Digits: 6 7 8 9 10 11 (6 6 6 6 6 6 )
If Digit 6 is 9 the returned value would be: Digits: 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 (9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9)
The first portion of the barcode is below: There are other pieces necessary to be pulled the same way, but from other sections, and based on yet another X desinator field (the next with a min of 1 and max of 5) I assume the pull would be similarly completed.
I don't know how to write code, I have used formulas but not this detailed or specific.
Ex: I know = Min (barcode, 5, 6) would pull the 6 digits after the 5 spot, but how do I vary the 6 (count) number in the formula?
Example below: No additional spaces, dashes, letters etc. (A's = 1-4, X = 5, M's = 6-17)
A A A A X M M M M M M M M M M M M
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17
I have a form that has a textbox in it. I enter text into the text box by scanning a bar code. I then use openreport.cmd to pass the variable in the text box to the report I generate. The report then has a button that when clicked references the variable that I passed to it.
Essentially the problem I am having is that when I set the textbox back to blank, it also erases the contents of the new variable created. I want to either delete the value from the textbox upon scanning the bar code each time, or highlight the value in the textbox for it to be deleted upon the first key stroke. I had read about setting focus to the textbox, but I have been unable to get that to work. Here is my current code for what I am doing.
Code in the form:
stPartNum = Me.ScannerTxt
Label = stPartNum
DoCmd.OpenReport "RptLabels", acViewPreview, , , acWindowNormal, stPartNum
Code in report button:
partnum = Me.OpenArgs
I am creating a 2 level report to confirm an order. Main report already created, runs successfully called as subform/subreport under "OrderDetails" form. Linked to master using Order.ID. There are two versions of the confirmation report that have different layouts for different program types.
The hangup comes when I try to add a "Class Dates" subreport. It lists dates of individual classes and Skip dates. I have created the subreport as "srClassDates". When I add it to the main report, it lists the records. However, when I try to link it to the Main report, an error message box appears with the "object variable or With block variable not set".
I have tried rebuilding both the main and subreports, rebuilt the query, have not found anything that changes the result.
Linker has been working successfully on other subforms. Report with groupings works fine, but I need data from 2 tables both linked to order.id.
I am trying to put a message box in an if statement and im struggling.
iif([Voucher]>0 and [VoucherNumber]>0,=MsgBox("Please Bla Bla Bla",vbOK))
I've searched google and 'Tech On The Net' and i still cant figure out why it has an error
the error is Complie Error: Expected Expression
The part hightlighted is the = sign. i remove this and it then doesnt like part of the Message. I don't know what is happening.
I am trying to add a value to a column in a query based on the value of another column.
I am using an iif statement for it but can't get it to work. I have a column called [Was Worker Born in UK] which has 3 options of "Yes, "No" and "Unknown". The next column is the [COUNTRYOFBIRTH] column.
I basically want [COUNTRYOFBIRTH] to say "866" if [Was Worker Born in UK] is "Yes".
If I write a select case statement for a field X i.e. 6 to 7 for example will this:1. Select any fields X where the number is greater than or equal to 6 but less than (and not including) 7B. Select any fields X where the number is greater than or equal to 6 but includes decimels of 7 i.e. 7.5 ORC. Select any fields X where the number is greater than or equal to 6 but includes but literally only includes cases where the the whole number 7 appears>I only ask because in an example in a book I am looking at says:Case 10000 to 20000......Case 20001 to 30000I would have through the word "to" means until but not including but in this case the field that equals 20000 would never be selected?

Both tables are joined, and the pseudo code i'm trying to get to work is;

I have tried below, but doesn't work.
Expr1: IIf(IsNumeric([TABLE_2]![TYPE])="06" And IsNumeric([TABLE_1]![MODE])=6,"MATCH","NO_MATCH") , returns incorrect results.
Ideally would like this
if table_1.mode = 6 and table_2.type = 06 , then "MATCH" , else "NO_MATCH"
or
if table_1.mode = 4 and table_2.type = 04 , then "MATCH" , else "NO_MATCH
using the Select statement on a form;I have it looking up 3 fields, Ordered by the first and bound by the first.the other 2 are being stored in different fields.What is weird is that I need to have the first field entered twice in order for it to show up, which means I'm looking up 4 fields.When I go to store the selection after, only 2 are available... know this confusing; here is the Select Statement;
SELECT [ITEM CODE1].[ItemCode],[ItemCode],[Customer],[Project Description] FROM [ITEM CODE1] ORDER BY [ITEM CODE1].[ItemCode] ;
If I don't type ItemCode twice, it shows Project Description in the drop down box. When I use the code above, only ItemCode and Customer are available to store in other fields;
Me.Customer = Me.ComID.Column(2) which actually stores Customer (should be column 3)
Column(3) and Column(4) won't do anything.
Error 91 - Object variable or With block variable not set
I am getting this error telling me that an object variable is not set.
I know which variable it is but when I step through the debugger it sets the variable and all is fine? Issue is that public variable of a class is not getting set when the VBA Editor is not open?
