General :: Start Of Day And End Of Day Process
May 3, 2014
In my database i need two process in the database one is SOD(Start of Day) and the 2nd one is EOD (End Of Day). The purpose of these process to run multiple hidden queries in back-end. In both processes there are several queries to run. How i can built this but this is necessary for database. another thing these process execute only once a day. after login i want to run a form that will check that SOD is performed or not if not then SOD (Run SOD) Screen will appear if SOD not perform yet then system ask for SOD Process to run otherwise disable my dashboard items. and 2ndly if EOD not performed last day then system will run normally and not ask for SOD process.

I have a form that loads when the database is open, and the form has buttons etc. that leads to queries and reports in the database. (Queries open in a form). Since most queries take a while to load, I was wondering if there is a way to Pop up a message box stating "Please Wait, Query is running..." (or something like that), and once the form opens the MsgBox should close automatically. (The user should not have to hit Ok button.)
Most users of this database would have restricted access such that they would not have navigation pane and toolbar visible - hence I want to make it a touch more interactive when a process is running...also if someone is new to access they might not notice that taskbar status and I don't want them thinking the program is stuck etc..

I have a subform with two fields [status] and [process], i am trying to get the backcolor of procces to change to red if the status field contains the text "expired".
I have tried vba. plced on the after update
if me.status = "expired" then
me.process.backcolor = vbred
else me.process backcolor = vbwhite
end if
this
Changes the color of the field [process] but also all process field colors to red even if the status field does not contain "expired".
I think conditional formatting is the way to go but i think i need an expression to complete this.

I'm not sure if I am biting off more than I can chew. I have a text field in each record in my database (Inherited) The db has nearly 5,000 records. I would like to split the field into records in a seperate table. An Example of the table as is now;
Code:
MemberIDBoats
5882Opossum(78-80) (87-89) Otter(80-84) Opportune(91-93) Turbulent(97-00).
5883Astute Auriga Aeneas Affray Amphion
2407H34 O10 Porpoise Trenchant Tapir.
I want to create a table as follows;
Code:
MemberIDBoatFromTo
5882Oppossum19781980
5882Oppossum19871989
5882Otter 19801984
5882Opportune19911993
5882Turbulent19972000
5883Astute
5883Auriga
5883Aeneas
5883Affray
5883Amphion
Etc.
Is this possible in one hit or do I need to process the records without dates first and then run another process to split those with Dates? I say dates but the field is a text field. About 15-20% of the records contain dates which are always enclosed in parenthesis.

I have just delivered my front end to the user. I have incorpoated a splash screen which uses the timer event and then a sign-in form opens. Trouble is, when the user opens the FE it just sits there on the splash screen. The Access security won't let the above process run because it stops all VBA until the user shift-starts and clicks the 'allow' button. After that it all works fine until I deliver an updated version and it all starts again. All using A2010. what I need to do to avoid the user having to shift-start?

I'm running into the issue where some of my batch files don't run correctly when the Access Application runs them.
Batch File:
Code:
FOR %%F IN ("*.prp") DO IF %%~zF EQU 0 DEL "%%F"
FOR %%F IN ("*.drv") DO IF %%~zF EQU 0 DEL "%%F"
start "" "%~dp0Start.bat"
I believe that this is because the For loops above are deleting files and don't have permissions to do it when ran from the application.
How I can modify this VBA to launch as Administrator?
VBA Snippet:
Code:
Shell parent_path & "Copy_" & Get2000Or2100 & ".bat"

The application was unable to start correctly (0x00007b)not sure it's an Access issue exclusively. What fix to apply (is it a Registry entry that's corrupted perhaps?).

Now I would like to know how to get the earliest and latest date range should they not select a date range. My date range is being displayed at the top of my report.

I created a call logging/work tracking type Database using SharePoint 2007 lists for the backend and Access 2013 front end for about 60 users and it has been running smoothly for around two years .
We use a shared outlook calendar and I want to be able to pull meetings & appointment information into the database from the calendar so I can assign the meetings out to specific people and keep of a record that they where given the request to attend. I was able to use the import outlook folder to create a linked table and it has lots of great information from the calendar apart from the two most important things you need in a calendar Start_time & End_Time . Is there something I'm missing in regards to these two fields? I assume I'm doing something wrong but I can't figure out what, nor did I have much luck with the Search function on here or google.
This is the list of field names it does import(everything apart from the meeting time and is it a recurring appointment)

I am calculating number of weeks between start and finish date. Some of the users have questioned the validity of calculation as they are not too sure if this is being calculated as Monday to Friday week or does it work by calculating 7 days. If the latter is true, then I should see a decimal value. I am using date diff formula.

I am creating a access db for use with a training company. All is working great.
What I want to do is create certificates within Access and then print by the Course load. Easy enough and I can do this.
The courses usually last two or three days, so i want to create a field which has the start and finish date on the certificate formatted correctly.
I currently use this
Code:
CourseDate: DatePart("d",[StartDate]) & " & " & DatePart("d",[EndDate]) & " " & Format([EndDate],"mmmm") & " " & DatePart("yyyy",[EndDate])
within a query which returns this
29 & 30 May 2013
what i want to print on the certificate is this
29th & 30th May 2013
I need to have the 'st' or 'nd' or 'rd' or 'th' in the date.

I have attached a sample of a database.
Table 1 has all the items I am trying to sell with sell by date after which I cannot sell this item. Then in Table 2 I have forecasted sales. So now I am trying to calculate stock consumption to see if I will be left with any stock that I cannot sell.
So now somehow I need to deduct sales forecast from my stock holding but it needs to go by date i.e. consume all stock for Item 1 with date 16/09 before moving to Item 1 with sale by date 23/09.
So based on the attached example, I can see that on 16/09 I will consume only 5 cases from sell by date 16/09 and another sale is 18/09. So that would give me information that I will be left with 95 items dated 16/09, which I cannot sell because they will be out of date.
Ideally I would like also to include the logic that if Item is out of date it would move to the next sell by date.
So in this case sale of Item 1 forecasted for 18/09 (94) would consume the whole stock (50) with date 23/09 and another 44 from date 01/10
For Item 2 I can see that units with Sell by date 30/09 will be consumed on 25/09 and I will start taking stock from next sell by date which is 14/10.

I have about 125 .mdb's I want to go through, and in each one, select a table and run a "find duplicates" query, creating a table of duplicate record info for research into why there are duplicates.. I am aware I can manually do this within each .mdb, but would be happy to be able to automate the process.
I wasn't sure what to search for, which is the reason for my posting. If anyone has an idea (and not questions on why I want to do this, or probs. I might encounter), I would be most appreciative.
Thanks!

I developed a sales database that contains around twenty forms, (in addition to tables, queries, reports and 2 modules). In these forms, I'm setting recordsets, select statements and filters. We recently hired a person to set up a Virtual Private Network. After spending a couple of thousands on a server and countless hours reprogramming the database to have multiple users access the database out in the field, (via Verizon broadband network card), we were unsuccessful to use the database since it was taking too long to download the data or perform any calculations. The database is split. The users have a front end.
The person setting the VPN has suggested that I get rid of all the queries that I have in the forms (which is impossible), or use Visual Basic for the front end instead of Access with VBA.
When I set up the recordsets I use the following setting:
rs.CursorLocation = adUseClient
rs.CursorType = adOpenDynamic
rs.LockType = adLockOptimistic
I don't know what to do. This program is very complicated and I don't want to have to reprogram the whole thing with Visual Basic, and I don't know how the front end is going to work if I eliminate all the queries, select statements and filtering.
Any ideas, comments or suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi all,
I need a button on a form to not only add a new record but also run a query. I can't see how to do this using a macro and my coding experience is limited. How can I get this button to do both of these actions?
I think that I should add that the add record action must happed first. However, I have noticed that this automatically increments the record number in the navigation section to the next number and blanks the firelds in the form (which is data entry mode). As the query relies on information given in the fields on the form, i don't want the field to be blanked. I'd like the the for to stay on the same record until the query has finished. Once this has happened, I'd like the form to reset itself so that it looks as if it's just been opened and the first record is the new record (just as if you'd opened a form in data entry mode).
Sorry, complex I know. :( :confused: I'm sure there's some one out there how's got the answer though. :cool:
Cheers,
Matt

Dear All,
I prepared times ago a database that contains important data that will be frequently updated.
Since yesterday I cannot load the database anymore. I get a pop-up with following statement:
Quote
The Microsoft Jet database engine stopped the process because you and another user are attempting to change the same data at the same time
Unquote
If I click ok, the loading process will be aborted.
I'm the only user of this database, neither the database nor the directory containing the database is sharable. It is located on the harddisk of my computer which nobody from outside can access.
What can I do to recover the access to my database?
I use MS Office 2003 but tried to open the database also on MS Office 2000 with the same result.
The Help function of MS-Access does not really help.
Who knows how to solve the probleem????
With regards
Siegfried

I have this update query that does not quite work. I have attached a picture of the design view. What I need to do is process each line and update the processed field (yes no) to minus one to then exclude that record. Unfortunately when this query runs, it sets the processed field after matching all records.
So how do I process line by line

I have 4 csv files, that need to be imported into Access.
1. I'm building 4 linked tables so users can update the table as needed. Then run queries based on these tables to produce report. But maybe there's a better way? the file name and location might be dymatic, so anything like 'getopenfilename' would be easier instead of linked tables?
2. These data need to be clean up first to become a 'database table'. (Delete first 2 rows, delete some columns, remove duplicates etc.) I know how to do them in VBA Excel, but never used Macro in Access before.

Hey, i'm working on creating a database.
it's involves a customer booking a ticket for a flight.
i have three tables, customer, booking and flight.
anyways, i'm having trouble applying the price the customer needs to pay
say there's an attribute on table Flight -> flightprice.
when a customer makes a booking, discounts are applied to the price.
discounts include:
1. Special seasonal discount, (eg from Sept to November) - 4%
2. Member discount - 6%
3. frequent flyer discount - 5%
4. other discount - 4%
the thing is that these discounts are stackable. ie, applied together.
(eg a person eligible for member discount and frequent flyer discount will get 11% discount total)
i know that if only one of the discount rates apply,
then i'd be able to create a new table called Discounts
and have a one to many relationship with the Booking table.
but i'm not sure how i need to bypass this when several discount rates can be applied at once to a single booking.
-------------------
also on another note.
how can i make the seasonal booking only be applied if the date of the booking lies in between the promotion season?

We have a user that wants to pull data from multiple oracle tables into one access table. She will probably want to run this process daily. The tables will join easy enough, but I wasn't sure what the best way to go about doing this was.
I haven't used access very much. Again, this is a member of the user community and she is wanting to do this thru access.
Ideally, if it could be automated some way, or set up in some way where the user would not have to do much more than start the process (and not have to redo any "select" statements each time). I would assume some kind of combination of links and import (maybe using a macro?), but again I know very little about access.
Any guidance will be appreciated!

I have a large database of items we sell on Amazon, I am looking to automate the process of uploading the inventory.
I am uploading a tab delimeted text file using the following code,
With CreateObject("msxml2.xmlhttp")
.Open "POST", strURL, False
.setRequestHeader "Host:", "mws.amazonservices.co.uk"
.setRequestHeader "User-Agent:", "VBA"
.setRequestHeader "Content-MD5:", md5hdr2
.setRequestHeader "Content-Type:", "text"
.send c2a
Forms!Form1.Text3.value = .responseText
End With
I am confident I have the signature and the MD5 Header, but I cannot get the data into Amazon!
I keep getting a non-descript error "InputDataError".
When debugging my Play API, I was told that the "send" command was not uploading the file contents, it was uploading the filename! So c2a is a string variable that contains the tab delimited data. This works like a charm for Play, but no joy for Amazon.

I am just getting started creation a new database for batch process production records that will be filled completed in the field real time. I had started out creating a table that had fields for each step of the process. Such as:
[Batch number]
[Equipment] (lookup)
[Process] (lookup)
[Step 1 start time]
[Step 1 comments]
[Step 2 Start time]
[Step 2 comments]
[Step 3 start time]
[Step 3 comments]
I have seperate tables for listing equipment, Processes and standard times for each step of the process. I realize that another way of doing it would be to create another table with a list of the process steps and then my table would look somethink like this.
[Batch number]
[Equipment] (Lookup)
[Process] (lookup)
[Step] (Lookup)
[Start time]
The problem is, I want a form (batchsheet) that already has all of the steps listed for the data entry person and simply a blank for them to enter what time they completed each step. I dont want the client to have to select a [step].

Hi All
My department has customer database using microsoft access with the main table being a linked table to SQL-Server database down in IT department.
I've only been recently made aware that the staffs have been having problem when trying to change or delete old data. It keeps on bringing up the error message
The Microsoft Jet database engine stopped the process because you and another user are attempting to change the same data at the same time.
which is hardly the case since each staff are assigned only one customer to work on.
While it is technically possible to have many people working on the same data, business wise, it is impossible to do that.
I still come up with the same error even when the IT department confirms that no one accessing the SQL-Server table and I was the only one logged in.
This leads me to believe that there is something in the code that somehow preventing the table being edited or deleted. The problem is the database is so huge and was designed by my predecessor so I do not have any knowledge of the complete working of the codes behind it.
If it's the problem with the code, can anyone tell me what sort of codes caused this? If not, can anyone tell me what happened?
Any help would be most appreciated.
Thank you
