Insert And Delete Link Tables Using Vba
Jul 11, 2007I have two table which is c:db1.mdb; c:db2.mdb
The user is currently using c:main.mdb
In main.mdb, I have a form, and have a combobox with two value, which is db1.mdb and db2.mdb.
If the user choose db2.mdb, delete all the current db1.mdb link tables(if there is any), and import all the tables from db2.mdb as link table
If the user choose db1.mdb, delete all the current db2.mdb link tables(if there is any), and import all the tables from db1.mdb as link table
And I need to perform some vba on the afterUpdate event of combobox.
My question is, how to
1)delete all link tables using vba
2)Import all tables from a certain mdb file as linked table using vba?
Forms :: Delete Button Deleting Too Many Records
Aug 8, 2013I have a columnar form with a sub-form based on an updatable query. I've created a delete button on the master form with the intention that if the user hits the delete button, it will delete the current record (like its supposed to, right?).
But what is happening is when the delete button is hit, it is asking twice for deletion confirmation and deleting the current record AND the next record. Even if I hit "Cancel" to stop the deletion, it still deletes the current and next records.
Each record has a primary unique ID that is included on the form (but not tab stopped - if that makes any difference), but it doesn't seem to be using that as the basis for deleting.
I've tried two different codes for this:
Private Sub Command110_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Command110_Click
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord
Exit_Command110_Click:
[Code] .....
Modules & VBA :: Deleting Record And Then Delete Listed File?
Jan 7, 2015What is the correct syntax that would delete a file when the record is deleted. The file's path is listed in a record field, MailLocation. Every time I try this code, I receive an error!
I've tried the below, and number of iterations, including calling the killfile differently (me![MailLocation], me.MailLocation).
Code:
Private Sub Form_AfterDelConfirm(Status As Integer)
Dim KillFile As String
KillFile = me!MailLocation
Kill KillFile
End Sub
Delete Entries From Combo Box Without Deleting Historic Data
Aug 3, 2013I'm using Access 2010. I have a form that has a combo box. The combo box lists all employee names and one has to be selected. I've been adding employees over time as new employees come. This DB is 3 years old so there are many employees showing in the combo box selection that are no longer here. I'd like to only have the current employees visible but I do not want to just delete them from the Table because then the historic data wouldn't be complete. How can I only show the current employees in the combo box and maintain the data in the table?

May 11, 2006:confused:
I am Developing a simple VBA program for Access for my final year of my Degree and I have come up with a problem that I don’t seem to be able to fix.
I have create tables using SQL
SQL = "CREATE TABLE tblInvoiceLines" & _
"(InvoiceNo LONG, PartNo LONG," & _
"Quantity LONG)"
DoCmd.RunSQL (SQL)
Deleting this with the below code works,
SQL = ""
'This will delete the Invoice Line Table
SQL = "DROP TABLE tblInvoiceLines"
DoCmd.RunSQL (SQL)
But once I alter the table with the below code the Delete command doesn’t work, does anyone know how I can fix this problem?
SQL = "ALTER TABLE tblInvoiceLines " & _
"ADD CONSTRAINT fkInvoiceNo " & _
"FOREIGN KEY NO INDEX (InvoiceNo) REFERENCES " & _
"tblInvoices (InvoiceNo) " & _
"ON UPDATE CASCADE " & _
"ON DELETE CASCADE "
conDatabase.Execute SQL

Deleting Tables
Nov 17, 2004In my program you are allowed to make backups of the current databases to an external file. It also allowes you to get the tables back from one of those files. At least it should.
I thought this wouldn't be a biggy. I thought I'd just delete my current tables and replace them with "docmd.tranferdatabase" acImport.
But the stupid thing wont let me delete its tables because they are connected to each other. Can I somehow delete the link before deleting them?
If so will the links be there again once I restore the tables from the backup?
Or do I need to reconnect them somehow to each other.
Or maybe another approach would be to import them without deleting the original ones. Thus the new ones get the same name of the original ones + "1" or something. Than I delete all records from all my original tables. And refill them with all the records from the new ones (the + "1"-ones) And delete the new ones. And if I would do that, would it be best to use AcImport or AcLink (from docmd.tranferdatabse)
Can I have some pro's oppinion on this plz.
Deleting All Tables At One Go

Tables :: Splitting Database - Front End Does Not Link To All Tables In Back End
May 28, 2013I am splitting a database and have created the Back end already. When I create the front end and link to the tables on the back end...

Oct 17, 2005I am trying to make a database for a shop which can do several things:
1) I want to give in what is being bought by the shop to make their products form. This has to be saved in a table named STOCK.
2) I want to be able if I say in a form that from these things I made that product that these things dissapear from the STOCK table and that the final product is added to the STOCK.
3) If the final product is solled I want to remove it from stock.
In the end if I want to see what is still in the stock I will only have the things that are still there because the rest is removed.
How can I do this??
Thanks for your answer
Deleting Multiple Tables Or Queries
Mar 6, 2007Hi.
I have a cluttered database with too many 'no longer necessary' queries and tables.
Is there a way (other than deleting them one at a time) to delete multiple ones at once, as I can in My Documents, et cetera?

Deleting Tables Of Import Errors
Mar 17, 2005Greetings all.
Having searched the last couple of days, I am unable to find a resolution to this problem. If it has been answered already, a simply link or thread name would be appreciated. If not, help is greatly appreciated.
I have code running that imports data from a .txt file into a table.however, on some days there will be errors importing some of the data. I have found that from the last three months, there has been no data of consequence lost so, I don't care about the data errors. However, any time there is an error with the import it creates a table that is named for example:
01-03-05 Auth_ImportErrors
where "01-03-05 Auth" is the name of the file imported. So each time they import a file, a new table is created. Is there any code that I can run that can automatically delete these tables upon exit?
I'm just tidying up really.
Thanks in Advance.
Deleting Rows From Joined Tables
Jun 5, 2006I am using the following query to identify rows in one table that have no match in another:
SELECT MAS.MASID
FROM MAS LEFT JOIN IVT ON MAS.Field1=IVT.Field1
WHERE ((IVT.IVTID) Is Null);
MAS is one file with MASID as the key.
IVT is the other file with IVTID as the key
This provides me a list of the rows in MAS with no match in IVT.
I now want to delete these rows in MAS so we can process the other fields in the table.
what is the syntax for the delete statement? I can't get the join to fit in correctly.
Help!
Deleting Import Error Tables
Dec 31, 2004I routinely import from an Excel document provided by a third party. Most data in it is ok, but 10-15 records always end up in the import error tables which Access creates automatically when formats do not match.
I am trying to automate this whole process thru VBA and am pretty successful so far, except that I haven't figured out how to programatically get rid of these tables (I do not need them, and data imports anyway).
Is there a way to destroy a table programatically in Access?
Thanks
Tables :: Keeping Records Rather Than Deleting?
Oct 31, 2014If a user wishes to delete a record, rather than deleting the record i'd like to change its status to not current for instance.
The reason being that the information in the records may be useful for statistical use.
I added a yes/no field to the table and then added some code to a delete button to change the yes/no.
I can't seem to hide these records from my forms (using filter) but I could be going the wrong way about it.
Tables :: Deleting Duplicate Records
Sep 11, 2013i have a data base with a primary key but some records have been added from a excel data base and now the data base has duplicate records with different primary keys. I do a Query looking for duplicate records based on a field not the the primary key. There are 315 out of 22000. I can sort the table and then manually delete the dups. The Query does not allow deleting records so finding the culprits in the full Data base is time consuming. How can i delete the duplicate records using a query? Is this function available hidden someplace in the guts of Access? Seems like this would be a frequent problem. The Microsoft forum addresses this problem and the only viable solution is the manual method, when they get to the Query method it looks like they just forgot what the subject was and tell you how to delete one record if you know what the criteria is. If two non Key fields are Identical then i want to delete one of the records.
View 3 Replies View RelatedModules & VBA :: Deleting ImportError Tables
Oct 4, 2014I'm running MS Access 2007. I'm creating an import procedure (for 2003 and 2007) that will automatically import an EXCEL file into a table for MS Access 2003 and 2007. The automatic import procedure works fine, but everytime the procedure is ran it creates an 'ImportError' table, due to blank rows (i.e. 'Type Conversion Failure'). The blank rows are due to the source EXCEL file not having value in a cells. This is normal for the source EXCEL file. These 'ImportError' tables are numbered each time this procedure is ran. I added a 'DoCmd' (see below for statement) statement in the procedure delete these tables, The below statements are used in a loop. I see that there are several procedures out there that use 'DAO' to accomplish this. If possible, I would like to use something that will use the below 'DoCmd' statements. This will eliminate the need to touch each PC to set 'ADO' or 'DAO' on.
DeleteTblCnt = DeleteTblCnt + 1
DoCmd.DeleteObject acTable, "Import Data_ImportErrors"
DoCmd.DeleteObject acTable, "Import Data_ImportErrors" & DeleteTblCnt

Tables :: Deleting And Replacing A Linked Table?
Mar 5, 2014My table (excel spreadsheet) sits on another directory from the DB. If I delete the table on this directory and immediately replace it with a table with the same filename, format, etc (only the data has changed) will each database user have to relink the table on their desktop DB? Or will the forms/subforms/reports still maintain their relationships/functions and just display the new data?

View 3 Replies View RelatedAccess VBA - Crosstab Tables Into Forms / Deleting Blanks
Aug 1, 2013I have a crosstab table that is displaying in a form within a form because the form has data coming from multiple tables.
Crosstab Query looks like
Name Sum Cust1 Cust2 Cust3.....
Jon 50 250
Bill 100 50 100
Kevin 200 50 100
Ryan 10 500
The issue are the blanks in the rows for each Name. When I bring it up on the form, I want the columns to be the Customers but only customers with amounts. The original form is there to show the name and position and the form within the form should have 1 row for name of the person that is being selected and columns of customers WITH A BALANCE.
Tables :: Cascade Delete Not Being Enforced Between Tables
Nov 19, 2014I'm a newb to Access and SQL and database management. I have a main table and a dependent table with a 1 to 1 relationship, relationship integrity and cascade update and delete. I used an append query after I had modified several records, and after the append deleted one of the records from the main table. It remained in the dependent table. Access didn't catch the disparity even after a restart. I broke the link and tried to reestablish it, and of course Access wouldn't let me. I deleted the record manually from the dependent table and all was well.
Why would referential integrity/cascade delete not be recognized after an append query?Access 2010.
This is the second time in two days that cascade delete has been broken in two days after using a query on the main table. Yesterday, after referential integrity was broken, deleting the records from the dependent table allowed me to restore Cascade Delete functionality and it worked for the rest of the day.

Link Tables
Jun 20, 2006Does anyone know how to link tables automatically/VBA?
I'm trying to import files from our DB2 database in which one file is created monthly and instead of manually importing / linking the files manually, I'm looking to have access link to the new file automatically.
The file names are structured as so..
