HELP! Query Wont Work Now Ive Put Main Bulk Of Data In Database
Oct 23, 2007
Hi all
I am facing disaster after two months of solid work on this database, the deadline is the morning of the 25th and just when i thought i had got it all working i then put the main bulk of the data into the database and the main search query won't work, it freezes and ends with 'invalid argument', when its the same argument as before when there was less data in it. also the relationships window is acting somewhat strangely, i cant seem to move the tables around within it, this is the same for any databases on my computer (im guessing this could be something to do with my Access on my computer)...
A quick note about the search function. it runs three queries dependent on each other, the master query runs of a sub query which runs off an inititial query (this was found to be a very good way of dealing with null values in the database). two of the the tables it runs off is a one to many relationship with the main table so not all contacts will have that variable, but i don't see why this would affect the query. in short the first query in the sequence searches for a status of a contact, then the second uses these results to search for a sub status then the final query searches for publications contacts want from the sub status query. the three tables it runs from are contacts, status(which includes substatus) and publications.
well, it really is the 11th hour here, quarter past the 11th hour to be honest. short of throwing my computer out the window and running off to a tropical island does anyone have any ideas....????
How can i retrive Bulk Data - from Different database into this database table. At the moment i loop through all the records which is not good idea...i want it to be real quick without linking the table...
I heard something like Insert into statement can work but have never used one....
I have a database with a Main Menu Form, containing a Button that loads my main data entry form. When the Button is Clicked portions of the data entry form that is loading shows through the Main Form Background (e.g. portions of the navigation bars, and portions of the boarder on the form that is loading.)
I have a data base of ip addresses. I need to come up with a way to bulk assign Host names to the available ip addresses. The only data that is the same between the two tables is a Farm Name which is the same for each record. My first query creates a temp table that lists ip addresses by farm name that do not have a host name. That is my data pool. Then I import from Excel a list of host names (with farm name) that need ip addresses. What I am not sure how to do is "Combine" the tables. Putting a Host Name with an IP address.
Goal: : To improve an application's performance by basing sub forms and combo
The application has a front and back-end. There is no SQL server involved. I use a module for, seeking out the back-end and automatically linking to the back-end in order that I might be able to provide updates. This has worked for me since first setting everything up.
First let me define what I mean by, “sub form” as to how I am designing my application. I have a number of, what I call, “main (unbound) forms” that are used to open up separate application modules. Each module contains a number of hyperlinks to each of the other application modules. Also, each main form (application module) contains a tab form with bound forms. Therefore, I am calling these lower level bound forms, sub forms and basing them on query files instead of tables. Many of the tables have fields for collecting information across a second form. I did not want to bring back all the fields when they are used in any of the two are three forms bound with the same table.
Problem: When I base either a main form or a sub-form on a query, that particular front-end query form no longer links to the back-end database table via a query file whenever I import everything g into a new/fresh version of the front-end application. Whnever I open one of the query files via the form, I get an error message in each of the fields indicating it can't fine the field even though the table is listed with all the fields. No, I do not have the same problem with forms based on tables.
I suspect that my problem is in what I am calling a main and sub form; and that the main form is really the first level bound form and never the top unbound form if one is used. I have a lot of forms. I just wanted to get some feedback on my suspicions or find out what else could be the source of my problem before re-doing everything.
I have a problem in reflecting the updated changes on a main screen subform based on a query .These changes get reflected only after closing the access database and reopening it .Tried the requery command. Also made a macro to update the query and run it after the form opens or load but not reflecting change in main screen immediately .I would be grateful if I can get some help on this forumThanks
I have Main Table with a count and I have a query from it. But when I looked at it, the data doesn't match. What may seems to be the problem? It is all Grouped By.
I need a database that will contain employee names and three job titles they will choose.
When a Job comes open I want to search the entire database and pull together a report that will show every employee that has chosen that job as one of his her three choices sorted by hire date.
I also would like a seperate table with the job titles and position codes that can be filled in automaticaly on the main form by typing the position code.
I have a database started with some of this but I can't get it to work right! First I haven't got a clue how to make the job choice combo boxes link to the three textboxes on the form where the job titles chosen will be displayed.
I'm sorry if my thread is in wrong section, cause I'm first time on this great forum :(! I hope you'll undrestand me ;)
My problem is with my database for my coffee bar, man who made database is still, and I don't have somebody to repair my database unfourtanetly :(
I formatted my C:, cause I installed new OS Windows XP PR SP2, and everything is deleted, but I save this .mdb file, but I don't have instalation CD for this program, cause man who installed me this database didn't give me instalation file :(!
And I saved this .mdb file, and now I try to run this POS.mdb,I can open "POS KASA" in english POS CASH, and I see articles - (ARTIKLI), and value of them it account values of them, just program doesn't count for me like before "sume" or "total" of EX. one count, for example coca cola 2.5 KM, fanta 2.5 KM = 5 KM, and now he doesn't count sume - total in program total is "UKUPNO", if somebody to know to repair this, or something another what is importing to work this database like before, please help me, database is on bosnian, if you need translating just ask me, cause I don't know to edit this file, and to have access to change words :(!
1'st colone in program interface (bosnian - english)
Sifarnici -something like codes
Artikli = Articles Ulazi = Inputs Storno racuna = storno count Pregled storno racuna = review storno count
2-nd colone in program interface
Dokumenti - Documents
POS kasa = POS cash register Dnevni promet = daily exchange Trenutni saldo kase = current saldo of cash register
3-rd colone in program interface Reports
Printanje prometa po broju = Printing exchange by number Printanje prometa od datuma do datuma = Printing exchange from date to date Printanje trenutnog prometa = Printing current exchange
IZLAZ = EXIT :)
Actually for me the most important is POS CASH REGISTER, cause it doesn't count total value of one count , total = ukupno doesn't work, sume doesn't work, and I can't give on my guests count, and I have problem with inspection cause I don't have counts :(, please help me and if you can repair this; IN ADVANCE TNX MUCH!
Greetings to all, from Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegowina!
I'm sorry really on my bad english, and I hope you'll understand me :(!
I am trying to take a string from an input box and place it in a table. I was told to use ado. I have tried but it seems to have problems with Access Data Projects. see http://databaseadvisors.com/pipermail/accessd/2003-April/005252.html Does anyone know how to get this to work in an .adp database?
I have been using Excel to keep a daily track of when people are in to work, but the number of persons employed has increased and it is taking too much time to manually input data into the sheet.
I am looking at Access and I would like to know if what I want is possible.
The fields I would need are , Name , Date , Time worked(1 for a full day and 0.5 for a half) , Reason worked, and funded by(inside/outside organization)
I would like to make a template of form that has the following options.
1. The ability to select a date (possibly through a calendar selection) 2. Select one or multiple different persons from a list 3. Possibly two check boxes (full/half day) - that when selected input a 1 or 0.5 into the database 4. A text entry for reason worked. 5. Another check box for inside/outside funding that reflects the time worked in step 3 and that can be queried to see how many total days funding was given.
though my actual application contains 6 tables, I will give an example with 2 to simplify my question:
Say I have a simple DB with a Company table and an Employee table....the only attributes are CompanyID (autonumber/PK) and CompanyName for the Company table and EmployeeID (autonumber/PK) and EmployeeName for the Employee table.
Now I have an excel spreadsheet with Company Names and Employee Names on a worksheet. How can I import these to both tables and keep the relationship of who works where? Keep in mind that I have 6 tables in my actual DB.
I am currently exploring the possibility of adding another element to our Database.
Each of our courses has a scheme of work associated with it, and this is completed on a daily basis by the tutor for each student. These are currently just Word documents we print out.
Example : I already have provided provision for recording attendance in the database, see below, (it may look a bit strange, but our training is ad-hoc so slightly different requirements than a college for example).
Is there way a to get this audit trail module to work with a form in Datasheet view? It works fine with a form in Single Form view; I can open the table where the audits are saved and everything looks good. But when implemented on a form in datasheet view, nothing happens. I don't get any errors and nothing is saved to the audit table.
Link : [URL] ....
Here's the vba code:
Sub AuditChanges(IDField As String, UserAction As String) On Error GoTo AuditChanges_Err Dim db As DAO.Database Dim rsT As DAO.Recordset Dim ctl As Control Dim datTimeCheck As Date Dim strUserID As String
[Code] ...
You call it in the BeforeUpdate event like so:
Code: Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer) 'Track all changes made to the record If Me.NewRecord Then Call AuditChanges("Asset_ID", "NEW") Else Call AuditChanges("Asset_ID", "EDIT") End If End Sub
I 'm trying to create a database for tracking time off from work and print a weekly roster. I have built several databases in Access 2003 and have now transitioned to 2010 and it is seems to be going well. My past databases have been rather simple data in data out not really that big of a deal. However on this database they need a report that will show them a week view that shows them all the employees regular days off and any additional time off they have schedule in that week.
I have an employee info table that has employee basic info, Emp name, Emp number, Work Week code (which identifies which days off the employee has) Hire Dates (for seniority sorting) and then I have 7 fields listed as D1, D2, D3 and so on until D7 (I will try to explain these fields later).
I have another table (Time Requests) that has 3 fields, Date, Emp number, and Time code (which identifies why they are off work or unavailable to be assigned).
The last table I will refer to has 7 fields, they are Date1, Date2, Date3, Date4, Date,5 Date6, Date7
I now have a form. This form has the 7, fields Date1, Date2.... Date7.
On my form Date1 field is updated by a manager with a date that is a Sunday then Date2 = [Date1]+1,Date3 = [Date1]+2 and so on until I have all 7 fields showing dates from Sunday - Saturday.These fields are lined across the top in a vertical direction positioned above a subform of the employee info table. So directly below the 7 Date fields are the D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6, D7 fields then to the right is the Emp name and Emp number, This gives me a Week view of who is working.
I have been able to get the D1, D2.. fields to show their respective Work Week codes by writing very simple If Then statements . So here is where I AM STUCK, When I am showing this week view how do I get D1 - D7 to identify what date they are supposed to be in reference to Date1 - Date7 then compare themselves to the table Time Requests to see if they have a match and then set the value of D1, D2 . to the Time code in that table. D1 - D7 need to auto populate and do this for about 50 employees.
Note: I put this in General original but it is rmore likely to be a table structure problem
I have a single table for storing the main data, this is fed by input from 3 forms. I have been asked if the forms can be used independantly and remotely as input forms.
My solution was to simply send out a database with just one form and created an append query so that when it is returned with completed information it would simply append the database to the main database. In itself this works fine however, what is happening, of course, is that when I get the other forms back I end up with triplicate records, that is instead of the information from the 3 forms being stored as one record it is now split over 3 records.
I have to be careful in what I do as the original database has been running for over 6 months now and has a lot of stored data and because of established queries/calculations/reports the last thing I want to do is change or split the main data table.
Is there anyway I can get the three records to concantenate on one line. The three forms all have separate fields as they were taken from the original database.
Greetings, I have my database set up to open to my switchboard. I would like to set up a macro to would allow me to return to the main database design view as needed. I have set up a "close" macro that I use to close the open form. This works well to return me to the main database design view as long as I only have one form open. Can anyone help me with the (admittedly) simple process of writing a macro that would allow me to return directly to the main database design view.
Hello im new to this forum and I just recently became involved with access so please bear with me and my many questions. I work for a mining company in Canada and we have training events. These records must be kept showing who attended and what was covered.
I have used the event template and contact template and merged them into one to I have a listing of all employees and their personal information. I have another table with events that say what was taught or shown and so forth. I am trying to figure out the best way to have them register for these events.
Right now I have right now a registration form that has the employeeID and the eventID. The problem is I would like to be able to use a list view and just select the people who attended and with the press of a button have all the registrations be completed dynamically. As right now for each person I have to create a new entry. Hope I was not too confusing, and thanks for the time. Patrick
Hi, I need help with inputting multiple values in a table I am using below statement in asp file and it works fine, when I input one value of name in form , as it takes that value and just input into the table. If it already exists then it just displays error message that this name value already exist in table as name field has no duplicate checked. I need to input multiple records now instead of just one. The current statement I am using is
<% Name = replace(trim(Request("Name")),"'","''")
SQL = "Insert Into table(tableName) Values('" & Name & "')"
objCon.Execute SQL
%>
But now I want to send multiple values from the text box instead of just one value, so I need a loop here. The values in the text box are separated with enter. Please let me know how do I run this query in loop that it will input one name first and then input the second value and then third so forth. (input multiple records instead of just one). Can you please give me the SQL statement for ACCESS or asp querry.
If my make queries in the data base and the source data base is another .mdb and the table names in the other .mdb which would be used for the queries are the same as those in the data base where the queries would be made......does anyone see any problems with that in the area of corruption or similar.
The queries made would be indentical to their counterparts in the data base where they are made and would serve the same purpose.
It would be a toggle type of thing whereby the recordsources for the forms in question would be changed.
For what I want to do it works perfectly but I am not sure if there would be problems that would only surface with longer term use and varied conditions as opposed to some short term testing.
I am creating a database that tracks current projects for my team at work.
Some projects are only due once (e.g., mailed brochures due on 1/1/14) and some are due at scheduled intervals (e.g., status report due monthly, quarterly, etc.)
Ultimately, I'm hoping that my end result will allow us to click on a form and look at what everybody has due that day, in the next 7 days, and so forth.
I want to create a main menu page for my database. I have tried the Navigation form and obviously I am doing something wrong....because the tabs won't open the forms. We have Access 2010 at work and I would like to create something similar to this:
Cardinal Rap - Main Menu
[button] Input Monthly data This button would take me to another screen that would list the tables for appropriation, expenditures and revenue, each with their own respective button
[button] Reports This button would take me to another screen that would would list the reports available each with their own respective button
[button] Monthly reconciliations
This button would take me to another screen that would list the tables necessary for my monthly reconciliations each with their own respective button that open that table.
The tabs in the Navigation form don't seem to do anything.
