I have a website which uses a series oif ASP/VBscript scripts to access and update an Access database. It has run for years on a shared commercial service.I also have a replica of the wesbite on my home pc for development and testing running under XP Pro and IIS. All works fine.
Recently I have had to switch my home setup to my laptop (also XP Pro and IIS). The scripts all appear to work ok except when I try to UPDATE certain tables.
Some give "Syntax error in UPDATE statement."
Some give "Data type mismatch in criteria expression."
Some work without error
Yet the identical script and table on the main site and my home PC work fine and have done for years.
If anymore info is required please tell me, but basically i can insert into the database no problems , but when it comes to updating what is in there i recieve the above error
I have 2 tables called MakeTable1 and DBO_TBL_Activity
Im trying to update MakeTable1 with the values from TBL_Activity when both activity.StartDate and maketable1.Dates match but also acticity.IDStaff and Maketable1.ID Match
Below is the SQL i have so far
Code:
UPDATE [MakeTable1].[Detailsa] SET [dbo_tbl_activity].[details]
WHERE [MakeTable1.Dates)=[dbo_tbl_activity].[StartDate] AND [MakeTable1].[id]=[dbo_tbl_activity].[idstaff]);
My issue is that I am trying to update a date field. When I do the date field may have a date or may be a null. When I try to pass in a NULL date with no quotes, I get a syntax error. When I have single quotes in the statement and a null value is passed in, I get an invalid use of date.
Dim DENIEDDATE1 As Date If (Not IsDate(rs.Fields("DENIED_DATE"))) Then DENIEDDATE1 = Null Else DENIEDDATE1 = "'" & rs.Fields("DENIED_DATE") & "'" End If
update table1 set table1.denieddate = " & denieddate1 & " 'get Update syntax error with this statement update table1 set table1.denieddate = '" & denieddate1 & "' 'fails due to invalid use of null
INSERT INTO Enrolled_Students (Last Name, First Name, Address, town/city, county, postcode, phone number, date of birth, age) SELECT Last Name, First Name, Address, Town/City, County, Postcode, Phone Number, Date of Birth, Age From Candidate Details Where IsNumeric (Student ID);
Ever since I switched from using a Mapped Drive to using the UNC path for my linked tables, i occassionally get Unexpected Error (40230).
I noticed this first when i manually re-linked using the link table manager, it linked the tables, then gave me this error several times, likely reflecting the number of tables i linked, but the links refreshed.
I then noticed this error when i used the acCmdZoom method on a textbox control on a continuous form. It opened the zoom, then gave me the same error several times, likely reflecting the number of records on the form, (i just hit the esc key to scroll through all the errors quickly.)
Any thoughts would be much appreciated,
*** UPDATE, Ok, I just did a Linked Table Manager again, got the error 112 times (or so), which is nowhere near the number of tables linked. After the error occurs once, and you perform that operation again, the error does not happen. Same thing when zooming, the error occurs sever dozens of times, but when i perform the zoom again, it does not repeat the error.
I've come across a simple error that has me baffled. I continue to receive the run time error 3075: Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'tblMasterPersonnel.FirstName"042" Or (tblMasterPersonnel.EmpID)="044"))'
Here is the strSQL
Code: strSQL = " SELECT tblMasterPersonnel.EmpID, qryiuSSN.SSN, ""SSN"" AS [ID Type], """" AS TXN, tblMasterPersonnel.LastName, " & _ "tblMasterPersonnel.FirstName, tblMasterPersonnel.MI, """" AS Suffix, IIf([tblMasterPersonnel].[Gender]=True,""F"",""M"") AS Gender, " & _ "tblMasterPersonnel.Birthday, tblMasterPersonnel.PlaceBirth, """" AS [Country Code], """" AS Country, tblAddresses.Phone1, " & _ "tblAddresses.Street, tblAddresses.City, tblAddresses.State, tblAddresses.Zip, tblAddresses.Country, " & _
I am getting this error message: "Unexpected Error from External Database Driver" when I try to import some .dbf files into Access. I just did some quick research, and it was suggested that I remove or rename the borland driver. Not sure how I feel about attempting that, plus, where do I get a new borland driver once the old is removed/renamed.
I have a basic form that shows employee information. A few of the fields are calculated or lookup fields. Starting with the first record I can go thru all of them just fine (I don't see any errors in the fields). If I look at my 2nd record twice then my combined name field (first name + last name) shows "#Name?". This error does not occur with my 1st record, just the 2nd one. Also, if I go to the end of my records to where a new record is going to be entered then I get extra errors in my 1st record.
It's kind of hard to explain exactly what's happening without pictures. I'll post some if you think it will help.
In any case, I don't see how a calculated field can work the first time thru but not the second time thru.
I am trying to create an update query. I am trying to update a field in a table with the current date as a request.
I have a table named tblTest and a field named Date2 that I am trying to update with the current date, the button that the VBA is applied to is in a form name frmTest. This is my code:
Private Sub Command39_Click() Dim t1 As Date t1 = Date db.Execute("update tblTest set tblTest.Date2") = t1 End Sub
But when I press the button I get: Run time error '424' Object Required
I am regularly getting the error "There is not enough free memory to update your display, close unneeded programs and try again"
Access 2013 on a windows 7 machine with 4 processors and 24GB total RAM.
Today I have 14 GB free memory (unbelievable! my first laptop had 136 MB total memory!) when I got this error (Access using 38MB) which makes me believe its not a system memory issue but to do with how much (or quickly) memory is allocated to Access.
I am trying to populate a list box with an event after update in a combo box. I can get the formula to work using 2 criteria, the problem is i nee to add a third criteria. When I try to add it I get the run-time 13 error.
Here is the code I am trying to use:
Private Sub cboStatusRFQ_AfterUpdate() Me.cboSupplier.RowSource = "SELECT DISTINCT [Consolidated_Master_Req_Pool.RFQ Contact] " & _ "FROM Consolidated_Master_Req_Pool " & _ "WHERE consolidated_master_req_pool.Complete = FALSE AND [Consolidated_Master_Req_Pool.RFQ Supplier] = '" & Nz(cboStatusRFQ.Value) & "'" And "[cosolidated_master_req_pool.Status] = '" & "[SUPPLIER_RFQ FOLLOW-UP]" & "'" & _ "ORDER BY [Consolidated_Master_Req_Pool.RFQ Contact];" Me.cboSupplier = Null End Sub
Code:query = "update table set date='" & srs.fields("docdate") & "', page=" & srs.fields("pagenumber") &_ ", near='" & near1 & "" & drive & irfile & "', image='" & ars.fields("file_name") &_ "', notes='Image not Found on Nearline.' where file_name = '" & ars.fields("file_name") & "'" msgbox query set fixrs = aconn.execute(query)
code to open connection Code:sub accessconn ' open a connection to access db' set aconn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") 'prep connection' set ars = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") ' prep recordset' set fixrs = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") ' prep recordset' aconn.open "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};" &_ "DBQ=" & accessfile & ";DefaultDir=;UID=;PWD=;"end sub
On my form I have 2 radio buttons rdoAll and rdoSpecific. If rdoAll is true then it prints a report. THis part works fine. However if rdoSpecific is true then I make visable combo box to look up an ID. Then when I click the button I want the same form to open but with just the info pertaining to the ID selected. Here is my code:
Private Sub cmdLotHistory_Click()
Dim stDocName As String, stSelection As String
stDocName = "rptLotHistory"
If Me.rdoAll = True Then DoCmd.OpenReport "rptLotHistory", acViewPreview End If
If Me.cboLotLU.Value > 0 Then stSelection = "[LotID] =" & Me![cboLotLU] End If
I have a function that builds a filter and it get a syntex error. It has three components and I must be missing something in combining them into the filter. SpecID and ReviewID are numbers. Selected is a checkbox and 'Yes' is a string. Can anyone see the source of the Syntax Error?
Private Function PlanFilter() Dim strFilter1 As String, strFilter2 As String, strFilter3 As String strFilter1 = "[SpecID] = " & [Forms]![frmMainEntry]![SpecID] strFilter2 = "[ReviewID] = " & [Forms]![frmMainEntry].Form!fctlReviewRequests!ReviewID strFilter3 = "[Selected] = 'Yes'" gstrFilter = strFilter1 & " And " & strFilter2 & " And " & strFilter3 & ";" Debug.Print gstrFilter End Function
I'm running a VBA query in excel trying to import the field from a table, simple so I thought, any idea on why i'm getting syntax error codes on this part?
As I am really 'Green' in this line, can anyone tell me what wrong with my syntax?
Thanks in advance.

can someone help me here? i'm trying to get a few selected employee from two tables, namely EmployeeParticulars and ProjectAllocation. EmployeeParticulars contained all the employees in the company whereas ProjectAllocation has two fields (PID - the project and EmpID - the employee who is allocated). One project consist of many employees.
Ok, let's move on to my problem now. I'm trying to get those employees who are not involved in a current project. i tried this
Code: Select Emp.Name from EmployeeParticulars Emp, ProjectAllocation Pro where Emp.EmpID <> Pro.EmpID
but it doesnt work. instead in returns me all the employees in the EmployeeParticulars table and on top of that, each employee appears 21 times!(this 21 i believe is from the 21 employees for this particular project) So, it actually runs 21*27(no of employees) = 546 times!
i was supposed to use != but i realise it doesnt not work in MS Access so i used this <> instead. however it does not give me what i want. Can someone assist me please.
