How To Get Import Data Into The FORM From Machine Readabe Zone In The Passport
May 17, 2005
Hi,
I have this project where I need to scan the MRP zone on the passport to my form. Let me first explain what is MRP zone. MRP is know as Machine Readable Passport Zone which you usally find on the first page of US Passport right under the Photographs and it looks like this
1st Line
So P stands for Passport and Contry code is USA and then last name Eriksson and first name Anna and middle name Maria.
2nd line
Passport number and Date of birth and sex and so on.
Now I am in process of ordering a keybord that has a MRP reader on the top( http://www.accesskeyboards.co.uk/ATB420%20Reader.htm ) from this company in UK. You can find the specification on the keyboard from the above link.
So as soon as I scan/swipe it, it will give me information in the following format.
FIRST NAME, LAST NAME, DOB, SEX, PASSPORT NUMBER.
SO ONCE I HAVE THE INFORMATION IN COMMA FORMAT, HOW DO I GET THIS DATA INTO MY RESPECTIVE FIELDS INSTANTLY, AS SOON AS I SWIPE THE PASSPORT.
Hello, I'm a newbie at using access database on local machine. I have worked with it before on a hosted site ,but need to know how to go about using it to host my database driven site on my local pc.I'm using maxwebportal ,which I have been using for a few years, After I install iis on my winXP Pro pc ,what do I have to do for my database to work,? is there something that I need to enable? thanks for any help Aussie )
Does anyone have a US zip code - time zone table or tables? I have been unable to find this data online without paying 150.00. I need this for a web application that i am doing.
Hi guys, Iīm a unexperienced user of access and itīs my first post in this forum. Hope to make myself clear.
I have several tables. My problem is rather simple but I didnīt find out to solve it. I searched on the forum but didnīt find it. I might not have the appropriate vocabulary yet to perform an efficient search.
My problem is that I have a form to fill a sales table (Salg). For each entry I need to fill the postnumber and the location. On another table (Poststed) is registered the Postnumber and the location name. On the form I did a combobox to get the post numbers. Then to get the location, In another box, which should come automatically after the "Postnr" has been selected, it should display the "location name". I did a "DLOOKUP" for that:
and it works fine. The name come automatically. However, when I validate the "post" then all the data in the boxes are register in the destination table, but not the "location nam". It seems it is not bound to the table because the DLOOKUP function is in the source field. Does anybody knows how I can bound it to the table. Or if I should use another way to do the task, Iīm open to any suggetions. I hope I made myself clear enough.
I've searched everywhere for a solution to this problem....and every site I come to has numerous examples of how to save Outlook Contact data into a database, but nothing on how to automatically store info from forms into Access table.
So, I assume the code will be in Access. When you run the macro it will look in a certain email folder, return all of the data within the forms in that folder and store it into an Access table.
Does ANYBODY know how to do this? I thought it'd be a much more common problem than it appears to be??
I am using the follow code to import data from a Word form into my MS Access 2010 DB:
Code: Set dbs = CurrentDb Set rst = dbs.OpenRecordset("tmpSIRs", dbOpenDynaset) With rst .AddNew
[code]...
On the Word Form, these two fields are drop-downs with three options: blank, No, and Yes. If the users leaves them blank, then Access ignores them--which is what I want. However, if the user says yes or no, Access puts a "-1" in the database. Both the Word form and Access field are text.
I wanted to import data in a access table using a form in access. The form should contain a browse button to browse the file and then a command button to start importing.
I'm trying to design a command button on a Form so the user can import the contents of an Excel spreadsheet to an existing Table in Access with the click of a button. But, i'd like the imported data to overwrite the existing data in the Table and not append to it. I've considered using linked tables but apparently you can't set Primary Keys when you do it this way.
I have a database that I import data from an excel spreadsheet into multiple times daily. The table that this data is imported into has several key fields that if the data already exisits in the table, and I attempt to import data that is the same except for one or more of the key fields is different. At this time the database it creates a different record. I am trying to get the database to overwrite the data in the database.
I was assigned by my manager to design an Access database system that is able to import all data from excel file monthly and creating charts & tables to analysis how each sales people and industry perform.
We originally have a big excel master sheet that has more than 10 sheets. I tried to import the current excel into access, but then i realized that this is not gonna work. because for next month, there will be new data and I can't do the whole import process over and over. Plus, after this system is designed, the users will be someone who has no knowledge in access, so i need to create a user-friendly system for them to use.
My questions is:since the data is always cumulative number, if I imported current excel file into access, when the next month comes, how to update the new data into excel. p.s. EXP. Mike's sale volume is different each month, and with the access system, for that column, it will be a cumulative number, like the total from the month of November to this month. how do i achieve this kind of update/import goal?I tried to link the excel to access, but by doing that, I will not be able to set relationship or change the attributes of any data type in access.
I have a text field in a table .. I would like the default value for that field to be the machine name. How do I do this? I know how to set a default value for a date or piece of text. I imagine it would be something like: machinename(), that's about as far as I get.
ok im making a database for a tumble prosses at work
first problem: i have a yes/no field in a table "pull ontime" witch i want to be controled by "pull actual" witch it a time filled in with the now() comand trigered by a button in a form i want to make the "pull ontime" field read no if the time is over 1hr over a value "pull" and read yes if under this 1hr
second problem: there are machines that are loaded with parts i want to make it so when they enter the part # and the s/o # and stuff they will hit a loaded buton witch i want to make it put the Now() time in the "Loaded" them based on the operation witch has 2 cycles witch depending on the operation the first cycle could be 2 hrs and the 2nd could be 1.5 hrs i want it to based on the operation selected set the time that the oporator has to change the cycle "rinse" and "pull"
Hi, i am a new comer. i have a table for students' comment for the first semester. however, in the 2nd semester i want to replace them with import data from excel to this table, but on the same student there are 2 rows of records (1 is 1st semester and 1 is 2nd semester).
how can i replace the new data to the old data? or how can i delete all the old data in the exsiting table so that i can import a new excel file?
Hi, I would like to recreate a record locking problem (error # 3218) our users are experiencing on an application we have developed. I currently do not have access to a network, so I would like to run multiple instances of Access on one machine. How do I do that?
I'm needing a pop up adding machine that will copy and paste a calculated value into a text box on a form when the calculator is exited....much like banking teller's have on their transaction pages.
Am fairly certain that I will be asked to design and implement a Machine Status Application.
Description below is very simplistic but believe you will get the idea
Basically simple stuff at Machine Operator. He clicks a command button on a display that signifies machine is okay or not. This updates machine status. Image it just toggles between Running and Stopped.
Each minute little process runs to at 1 to Run value or to Stop value. Okay so this will get a little more complex for sure.
Now I could end up collecting data on say 100 machines. Okay so I would not expect the status change to occur any more than once per hour on average so it would be a bit like having 100 very very slow users on the system. Now the crunch. What effect (if any) would these 100 very very slow users have on performance and particularly the One much quicker user who is executing preset queries one after another for say 20 seconds every minute.
I recently bought a new computer and it was kinda cheap, so no office products were installed on the computer. A friend loaned me her copy of Office 2003 which didn't have Access on it. So, after installing Office 2003 I picked my old Office 97 CD and installed just Access 97. Then I go to open the database and get this annoying message.
Microsoft Access can't start because there is no license for it on this machine.
I am facing a issue in accessing my db file in server. I just splitted my database into front end and back end , placed in a local folder which is shared in network . I opened the files in network from my colleague machine and everything was working fine yesterday .. but right now i am getting error like "the network path is not found " 0X80070035 which tells that check whether the source machines is able to accept file sharing ..I googled and tried 2 solutions Like turning off windows firewall and enabling NetBIOS Over TCP/IP..
I have a query which is currently using a prompt box to ask the user to input a machine number. This is run from a button on a form. Press the button and the prompt appears .I would like to now do one of two things either make a form with every machine number on it or use a combo box to select the machine number. My problem is that I don't know how to get the combo box or the control button to link to the individual machine number.
I have developed .net application ....at back end I am using ms access database. When I deploy my application at client end , I want only my ms access database should accessible to application only. Client should not be even to see which type of database i am using or its business logic .
I've been told numerous times that a shared database should have each user with their own FE. I've also seen in a number of places that the FE should be on the user's local machine. Is the FE on the local machine to limit network traffic only, or is there a greater reason for it?
I was under the assumption that the seperate FE's were to lower the probability of corruptions and sharing of local temp files... If this is the case, is it reasonable enough to have each user have their own FE in their own user folder on the network?
I have developed a database in Microsoft Access 2013. I wish to install and run that database on another machine on which I have already installed the MS Access Runtime.
In order to allow the database to run correctly on the target machine, I need to add two Trusted Locations - one for the front-end database and another for the back-end database.
The folder paths on the runtime machine are different to those on the development machine, so how do I add Trusted Locations (on my development machine) which remain valid when the database is copied to the target machine?
Must I trick it by simply creating an identical, dummy folder structure on the development machine (would this even work?), or is there a more elegant way?
