I have a question regarding copy-pasting the access headers. I want to copy paste Access headers from a design view from one acess file to another file in the same format. Currently I can only copy-paste them one by one. How to copy paste it column by column?

I have a handheld that downloads a CSV file which I copy and paste into an Access database. I was using XP and moved to 2010, with xp this worked great. In 2010 some fields that text and/or numbers will only copy the numbers and the field that have text will just have a blank in access. Is there a fix for this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have several Access 2003 databases that the Copy Paste functions become disabled (grayed out) on a random basis. If I reboot, copy paste are active until they are used once or twice and then they become disabled. This happened on a client´s windows xp system and my windows 2000 system. Not sure, but it may be related to the amount of data in the copy buffer.
Has there been a recent access update that causes it to not clear the copy buffer? If so, how can I clear it without having to reboot?

All I need to do is copy an excel file from a location (while coping the file, the location of the source file remains same all the time)and paste that excel file where ever I want (Browser Option) from an Access VBA.
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi,
Does anyone know how to exclude the header information when copying a record from an Access table and pasting it into Excel. When I paste into Excel, it is also pasting the header information from Access which I do not want. I only want the data to be pasted.
Thanks for the help in advance.

I am copying a range from excel (multiple rows) and paste it directly to access table using:
Code : DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdPasteAppend
Sometimes it does not work and I need to use paste special as text.
Is there any way to paste special as text using VBA ?
I have been unable to get the Totals row in Access 2013 to calculate any values in Datasheet view. I can bring up the Totals Row to select a function
But when I click Sum (or Count or Minimum, etc), nothing happens:
It is a 100% local table, not SQL, not linked. The problem has been noted on two separate machines using Windows 7 x64 and Microsoft Access 2013.
When I highlight multiple records and choose delete, it only deletes 1 record.
Is it possible to delete more than one record at a time?
Is there a way to prevent the col headers from copied to the clipboard when copying a datasheet? When I paste to excel i don't want the headers - ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have recently been modifying an existing Access 2007 database, everything seems to be working correctly, except that the main table holding most of the data is acting strangely.
If opened in database view, it is completely blank - no column headers, no data. Record count is correct and I can step through/select records, but there's just nothing visible at all.
The data clearly still exists as it can still be viewed in forms / queries / reports.
Only thing I can think of is that I have deleted a bunch of outdated queries & reports and it's possible that one or more of them may be cross-referenced with the table in another query, but still can't see why that should be causing this problem.
Hi all,
I get information sent to me on email. This information then needs to be transfered onto a database. the information is always the same.
name *****
Date of birth **/*****
consultant ******
ward BLA ******
Is it possible to copy and paste all the information in one go from the email and paste everything into its correct places on a form with one action? This would save alot of time & effort on the users part.
Many Thanks
Samzie
To speed up my input I copy a record and paste it.
Only trouble is that I have one field in the table that is dependant on the parent table. [The customers email address which I populate with a query/combo box. There could be many, depending who the order was for.]
Q: What function could I use after the paste funtion to ammend that field automatially setting it to 'null'
Q: I looked into WM_PASTE but I'm really struggling!
Many thanks

I want to disable the user from cutting/copying/pasting the value of a text box. What is the keyAscii of SHIFT as well as CTRL so on the keypress event for that textbox I can simply set it to a null.
Or is there an easier way to do this?
See title :)
I have seen that in some sample db's rightclicking the mouse showed the menu with an option to check or uncheck the dataview option, unchecked the formview was applied, but when i 'just' import the subform, i cannot find somewhere the possibility to change from dataview to formview.
Maybe someone can help me with this, probably very simple(?), question?
I wonder how MS Access manage to show long list of records when we want to browse them in Datasheet view.
1 - Does it load limited amount of records on start-up and then load the remainder upon user interaction (scrolling for example)?
2 - Does it care about such things automatically or natively?
OK, here is a weird one, at least it seems weird to me. I have a field on a table, or query result, doesn't matter which, and it looks like this:"55264"25468"4562"123etc, etc.Now I need to copy that and paste it into the notepad in Windows. When I do that the pasted data looks like this:"""55264""""25468""""4562""""123"I have looked at it on the clipboard and it also looks like the above. I really need this data to paste to the notepad just like it is stored on the table (with one double quote only). It's one of those strange sounding things, please do not ask me to explain why...I just need it like that.Why the heck does the extra quote get added to the front and one get placed on the end?Test it yourself and see.Thanks
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi Guys,
I'm trying to make a report where i will have a variable number of charts. My approach is to have one "template" chart, and copy and paste it at runtime, and then alter each new chart's properties (data source, etc) to suit
My question, and i'm sorry if it's basic, is how do i copy and paste my first chart (called "Chart1") as another control named "Chart2"?
thx for the advice

I have a textbox on a form that automatically shows the current date. Below that, I have 3 other textboxes for dates (each representing a step in a process). Often, the same date is imputed into each of these boxes. I would like to have an “Autofill” command button that would take the date in the first box and place it in the other three. This is so basic it’s hard. My usual searches turn up nothing. Any suggestions welcome.
Hi there,
I am a database designer for a UK Insurance company and have recently needed to rebuild our complaints database. One of the problems with the previous database was that staff were copying text from an application designed by Pacific Solutions (PACSOL). When the data was pasted into our Complaints database, it was causing some serious issues that made the database crash. This had started to affect people's confidence in our ability through no fault of our own. We then found out that this was due to the character set of PACSOL not being supported by access.
What we would like to do in the new database is prevent users from copying and pasting text into the system. Perhaps by displaying an error message when they press CTRL+V or do edit - paste.
Does anyone know how this can be done?
Thanks
Gareth
I can not seem to paste text into a text box on an access 2010 form. I am however able to paste the text in a word document.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to copy a table and paste as another name. I do this all the time with this table as it is a process I have to do. It is giving me a -1524 error. I also tried to export it to another database and it won't allow that either. I get the same error.
I have tried this with other tables and it does fine.

I want to "zoom" to the underliyng data from pivot view. When in excel someone doubleclicks a field in a pivot table, it automatically creates a table containing all the lines that field were made up from. I want to achieve the same behaviour in Access.I started to think towards a VBA coda, that could be initiated from the form's double click event. It should go to datasheet view with the prpoer filter criterias.
