General :: Mail Merge Word File (using Data From Access File)
Mar 11, 2014I often create contract using mail merge. I have an access file that I want to use as data source for word file. But it does not automatically.
Please download the attached file !
If there are 1 customer and 1 property, I do not need to do anything. Conversely, if there are many customers and many properties, I take time to manipulate.
Firstly, I open the word file. I have to copy and paste paragraphs that I want. Highlight of the original paragraphs is blue.
Secondly, I click 'Insert Word Field' -> select 'Next Record'.
In short, I wish to use VBA in access file to automatically perform the steps that I have outlined.
Backup Current Access File Using Vba While The File Is Open
Jul 11, 2007I have a button in the form of the current access file. What I want to do is when the user click on the button,
triggered the vba to backup current access file. But since the file is currently open, is this possible? If yes, may I know how to do it with vba?
I have tried two methods but failed:
1) Use copytofile method, but I get permission denied due to file open;
2) Use dbengine.compactdatabase method, but it also has problem if the file is open.
Does File Server Hosting Back-end Mdb File Need To Have Access
Nov 15, 2013I'm experimenting with MS Access, and I've successfully split an MDB someone created into two files. I can access the database from 2 computers at once using the front end file connecting to a file server which hosts the _be.mdb file.
Could the _be.mdb file theoretically be on a NAS without any computer attached, or is there some runtime or full version of Access that needs to run on the machine with the back end file?

Jun 8, 2005Hey guys.. I am trying to make my DB into an MDE file however that option which is in Tools > Database Utilities is not highlighted on this particular database. Anyone know why? Thanks!

Make MDE File
Oct 1, 2006I created an Access/VBA database with a number of forms, reports, tables etc and I want to make it an MDE file.
I split the database into a front end and back end, relinked the two and tested it fine. Then I read I had to convert to 2002-2003 format. Again I did that and relinked and retested, so far so good.
However, when I go into the front end and try to make an MDE file I have a problem. It asks me to select the database, so I point it at the front end (Dry Clean) and then it asks for the name of the MDE to create (Dry Clean1) after that if I look in the folder it immediately creates a db1 and then sits there eating up cycles until I cancel it.
I have let it run for over an hour and it is just a blank screen with 'Make MDE/ADE' down in the lower left. I look in task manager and it says it is not responding, but it is eating up most of the CPU and doing some IO (thus I let it run for an hour once). If I cancel it and go into db1 (which is not the name I specified) it says that the VBA files don't exist and just keeps popping up errors.
Is this a bug? Did I miss a step? Am I just doing this wrong?
I need to make this last step to 'blackbox' the code from the users to complete this project.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! :-) Thanks.
Unable To Make Mde File
Dec 5, 2006Hi,
I'm using A2003 to try and create an mde file but it is not playing ball. The mdb is compiling fine with no errors but when I click on "make mde file" and supply the path/filename, Access appears to try to open the mdb again and prompts me with a security warning saying that 'opening this type of file may be harmful.....etc'. The mde does not get created. Any ideas?

Make A File On Harddrive The Constant Datasource
Jul 29, 2006Can anyone help me with setting up a Visual Basic project to where the datasource I use is a Access database on my harddrive. This Access database isn't linked to a server or anything. It's just a database I created and would like for my project to open this file everytime it's attempting to pull data. How can I make this connection? If I am able to use ADO, how do I go about doing this? I would think ADO wouldn't be necessary though.

View 3 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Make File Name Part Of A Field Value
Jun 13, 2013I'm trying to split up the filename into four separate fields. Here's an example of the filename:
123112 427900 55261 1156833.jpg
A 12312
B 427900
C 55261
D 1156833
The values A, B and C are always the same number of characters. The last value, D, changes in size. It can be anywhere from four characters to twenty. But it always starts at position "20" as with "1" in the case of the 1156833. The extension, jpg, is of no value.I might also add my programming ability is close to nonexistent.

View 4 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Split Database - Modify Backend File And Make A New Front End
Jun 12, 2012So a while back I created a database which I use to keep track of my companies large list of products. It is very simple only 3 tables, 1 query and 1 form. After running into a problem with copying and pasting updates on each computer in the office I decided to split the database on a network drive. This worked for a bit, however I had to add new fields and modify the form, which corrupted the file. Luckily I had a backup before the split.
As far as I could tell all I had to do was modify the backend file and make a new front end. However it seems like it is not as easy as I thought it would be. How do you modify a split database without corrupting the files or using a non-split copy?
Forms :: (Upload File) Button Stopped Showing All File Types
Oct 7, 2013I recently upgraded a DB from 2003 to 2013 and ran into the following problem.
I have a button that opens a file dialog box and allows the user to upload a file to a predetermined location (and store the address as a hyperlink). I borrowed this code from someone else on here and modified it slightly.
In any case, the button still works, but now when it opens it doesn't have an option for "All files" under file types. So I can upload MS Office files, text files, etc., but not PDF files which are by far the most common types my users upload.
Private Sub Command35_Click()
Dim dd As Integer
Dim fileDump As FileDialog
Set fileDump = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogOpen)
dd = fileDump.Show
Dim Yourroute As String
Dim yourrouteName
Yourroute = fileDump.SelectedItems(1)
yourrouteName = StrReverse(Yourroute)
yourrouteName = StrReverse(Mid(yourrouteName, 1, InStr(yourrouteName, "") - 1))
FileCopy Yourroute, "us170fp00dataWBO_Tool_RoomDrawings" & yourrouteName
Me.Drawing_Link = yourrouteName & " # us170fp00dataWBO_Tool_RoomDrawings" & yourrouteName
End Sub
General :: Forms And Queries In One ACCDB File - Path Setting To Linked Table File
Oct 5, 2014I've got the forms and queries in one .accdb file and my tables in a separate .accdb file. The forms file links to the tables in the tables file. The tables file resides in a folder called simply enough C:acc_tables and thats where i browsed to (obviously) when i set up the linkage.
One of the users does not wish (for whatever goddamn reason) to create a C:acc_tables file to stick the tables file in , and wants the tables file in some other folder.. Unfortunately this user does not have the skills to delete the existing links and re-link to the tables file after putting it in the folder he wants.
Where in the file that holds the forms and and queries do i find the path setting to the tables linked file? Can it be changed without deleting links and then re-linking?
Text File To MS Excel Multiple File Import Application
Jul 20, 2006hello,
I would like to automate something presently done on a one-by-one basis. Here: a number of text files(containing data) are to be exported into an MS Excel file, with each text file to occupy a different worksheet. Presently, the idea is to use the Data/import external data/import data feature of MS Excel for importing the text files one-by-one into newly created worksheets(within the same workbook).
I would appreciate some advice on how to go about creating a useful MS Access application to achieve the above. I have checked the available Macros in MS Access, but I could not find one to suit my purpose. can anyone pls assist, on how I can get started?

Modules & VBA :: Determine Excel File Type Without Opening The File?
Aug 14, 2015Question: Is it possible, using VBA, to determine the actual Excel file type without opening the file?
I receive data files from other departments. Seems like every time someone changes their download structure, I end up with file types that do not match the download extension (example: xlm file with a xls extension). The files can't even be opened because of this. I think I can fix it if I could figure out how to determine what the file type really is.
I'm using Office 2010.
