View RepliesI am importing data from an Excel spreadsheet in Msaccess table. I am using Docmd.Transferspreadsheet method. I am able to import the data, but what I would like to do is to import only certain fields from the spreadsheet. I am able to do with the wizard, but the Transferspreadsheet does not have that option.

<locations>
<locationelement description="Master Location" dns="tester.test.com" key="M0" lastupdated="Never Updated" pdport="5555" port="5551">
<monitoringperiodtimezone>EST5EDT</monitoringperiodtimezone>
<monitoringperiod days="Sunday" hours="28-95" />
<monitoringperiod days="Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday" hours="all" />
</locationelement>
</locations>
When importing, Access creates a table location element with fields for monitoring period timezone (containing EST5EDT) and monitoring period (containing nothing). I was wondering if there is a way to access fields such as description, dns, key etc or days, hours, ie fields that are within a tag.
creating a import form into access.File format is txt (tab delimited)
Ideally I need:
- a box to enter the file name
- a box to enter the path
- a import button to push
I have seem some comments saying you have to creat a transfer text.However I have no knowlegde of Coding, opening or closing statments..

I am attempting to import from an existing Form Datasheet so that it overwrites (or appends the new data to the datasheet) from another identical Form Datasheet because it contains an additional 1000 contacts in it.
I have resulted to Using an .mdb file from over a year ago because the current .mdb keeps hitting "The Microsoft Access database engine could not find the object (Error 3011)"
My initial opinion is that the more recent .mdb it is corrupt.
I'm having difficulty getting my import to work... when i call on the original XML file I get too many tables... when i call on the XML file using the transform function of Access with the XSL file it gives me only two tables "body" and "tr". Body contains the value "Weather" and tr contains the value "Day".
Import the day as month/day/year into a field "Day" in access table "WeatherSFCAL"
Import the Fahrenheit temp from the high section into the field "High" in access table "WeatherSFCAL"
Import the Fahrenheit temp from the low section into the field "Low" in access table "WeatherSFCAL"
I am having difficulty importing a large txt file into my database, due to the first column containing a * prefix. normally i would just go through the document and delete it, but this file is quite large at over 100k records.
Is there anyway of importing this file in access 2010 and telling access to ignore the first column?
Need importing just 1 column from excel file into vba !
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have one Access Database and i want to import the flat file coming from Cisco Phone Logs, its a comma delimited that contains the column names in the first row, and in the second row, its the data type, then the succeeding rows contains the data of the logs which are in Comma separated values, I want to put it to my created table programmatically,I used Docmd.TransferText but this will not let me define the row which i wanted to start at row 3.
DoCmd.TransferText acImportDelim, , "tblImportTextFiles", Me.txt_SelectedDirectory & "/" & Me.lst_FilesInDirectory, -1
Attached is the text file i received from Cisco Call Log Applications.
I'm using the Access Find command from the ribbon.
Problem is Access searches only the field that has the focus.
I must first click on the field and then use Find.
Any way to get Access to utilize Find to look in all fields?
I have set General search in the options.
I think the answer will be very simple but I can only seem to graph one field using the Graph wizard. I have a table that have running totals:
Date-----Sales ---- Budget
1/8/2013 0 2000
2/8/2013 2500 4000
3/8/2013 2500 6000
4/8/2013 4000 8000
I can only seem to chart the first column after the date.
I have a Database with 2 new fields
DB = ResolvedDateReport
Linked Tables to CSv File = tbl_ResolvedDateReport
CSV files holds the two new fields called.
Owner and Owner Name
What do I need to do to if the fields are blank to uplaod the data into the DB.
Have tried multi times and have failed.
Incident ID+ is the primary key field.
Here is my attempt for one field !!
UPDATE ResolvedDateReport RIGHT JOIN tbl_ResolvedDateReport ON ResolvedDateReport.[Incident ID+] = tbl_ResolvedDateReport.[Incident ID+] SET tbl_ResolvedDateReport.Owner = [ResolvedDateReport].[Owner];
Then I can update my pivot tables from Access to show the new fields with data.
I am creating a table in access and I would like to color code some of the fields if it is possible. There would be multiple green fields to represent it has usable data, Yellow to represent the data is in process and Red to represent bad data. I do not want to color code fields using queries, forms or reports I want to color code the fields in the tables only.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to take the data that is put into a form or report and export it to a certain document in word.
The user will be filling out a Reciept. On the form there will be a to and from box for them to fill out, along with many other options. Once the user enters in all the data required I want them to be able to click a button and it generate onto the attached file, in its perspective fields. Is there a way to match the documents to correspond to my program?
I've recently moved up to Access 2013 (from Access 2010) and everything went well, until one day my splash screen was blank and the program had empty fields...after seeing that all the links to the BE were OK, I re-booted and everything worked fine....until the next day the same thing happened...... The program randomly falls over about once or twice a week and I have to re-boot to cure it.....
My splash screen has a standard dlookup ( [=DLookUp("Banner","tblCompanyInfo")] ) to display the active company name...and sometimes its populated and other times its not..... if its not populated then loads of other fields on the forms are also blank - even if they point to valid data in the database!
I run Win7 (both 32 and 64bit) with Access 2013 32bit on three PC's - same problem on all!
I am trying to find an average of four fields in either a form or query. Basically I have figures for [Grade 1], [Grade 2] but [Grade 3] is an empty field. I need to include all three field because there are sometimes 3 grades, but a majority are 2 grades. How to do so?
View 2 Replies View RelatedFor some reason our database keeps "not responding" ...
The application stops responding when:A field is selected that has a input mask
A combo box is highlighted (forcing the drop-down menu to open)
Certain buttons are pressed (in fact all but two trigger not responding, why the two buttons are immune)
if I put a break point on a section of code that runs when I press a button (any button, it doesnt matter) and I then press the button which takes me to VBA, to the break point. Then I press F5 to continue to run the code until the function ends (essentially doing nothing, just running the code to the soonest break point I can in the function and then running the rest of the code as normal...) it all works fine again!!!!
I fixed the issue by creating the function:
Code:
Sub aiuewjgaop()
End Sub
saved the database, deleted the function and then saved the database again.
Hi,
How can I get a field to update automatically after data has been imported into the record.
Manually it works using the DLOOKUP in the "After Update" properties but this does not work when importing data.
TIA

Hi all~
Does anybody know how to go about running a query or macro in Access to import specific fields from all worksheets contained in an excel workbook?
Say I have ExcelFile.xls, and it has worksheets with varying names. I want to pull fields B12, B16, B20, B24, B28 from each worksheet and create a new record in a table (one new record for each worksheet). Is there an easy way to do this other than pulling the data into a Crystal Reports pivot table or some such?
I have a table that contains about 75 fields. Each field is going to be a Lookup field that will allow the user to enter multiple values. This is for a home inspection service. So the first field name will be ExteriorShingles. The user clicks the dropdown arrow, and is allowed to select multiple values such as "loose", "missing", "rotted" etc... I was wondering if there is an easy way to import all these values from my Excel spreadsheet, or do I have to enter each one individually, which is going to be a lot of work.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a form that's using a query as a record source. Normally that query is empty, as it's just linked to a temporary table, so when I open the form, generally I'm on record 1 of 1.
On that form is a button that imports data from a text file. I want to find a way to refresh the data on the form after importing, so that it shows the new records without having to close and reopen the form. So where I was on record 1 of 1 before importing, I want it to show that I'm on record 1 of 25.
Is there a way to automatically skip row 1 of a CSV file when importing? Row 1 contains a header with filename, date created, period covered, total record count, etc., and then Row 2 contains the column names.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI 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.?
I am importing a delimited .txt file that has a number field. A value for a record coming in is 36,767 and Access is not accepting it. If I redefine the field as long integer or as double, I can manually update the record, but as soon as the file containing the record is imported, the field reverts back to integer.
How do I format the field with VBA so that Access will accept the value and not revert to integer?
I have a stock control database which i have nearly completed. This has Manufacturer, which is linked to products, which is linked to Sub Product(which also has field partCode). i.e. Manufacturer1 can have 3 products, and each of these products could have 5 subsystems and partcodes. Each partcode is unique to that subsystem/product/manufacturer.
I then have a pricing spreadsheet in excel, which has many tabs. A new column has been added for each item for Manufacturer,Product,Subsystem and Partcode.
I need to import these manufacturers,products,subsystems and partcodes, but into the tables with the correct relationships, i.e. product1 and product2 are products of manufacturer1 and so cannot come under manufacturer2, and so on.
I hope this makes sense, Thanks in advance for any help you can give!
