How to match 4 character word or number or combination by identical 4 characters word or number or combination in one word have 10 or 15 characters.
I have to two separate tables (Table A and Table B). Table A has one column (Tag No) and Table B has about 15 columns with one column name Tag No as below
Table A
Table B

They're both in MS Access.I am trying to match 2 tables - columns (Tag No) with join query, but not success. I want to match 4 characters in Table-A with 4 similar characters in Table-B (Tag No) cell.What query is suitable to compare two tables.
I need to print a report on pre-printed paper. The name fields are in blocks, which means I need to print the first character of the name in the first block, the second in the second block, etc. Any ideas??
I have lookup table I use to return names for various "Sales Class" codes.It all works good but if there is a code that isn't in the lookup table it leaves that field empty.I want it to return the word "Unknown" for any code that doesn't have a match.Here is the SQL:
Code:
SELECT [Data1].OrderNum, SalesClasses.[Name] FROM [Data1] LEFT JOIN SalesClasses ON [Data1].[Sales Class] = SalesClasses.[Code1];
My end goal is to populate a pre-existing table in an MS Word document with records from a query. The easiest way I've found (through scouring the internet) is to start with the code below (ran during OnClick() even in Access) to get the table the same size as the recordset:
Code: Dim wDoc As Word.Document Dim wTable As Word.Table Dim wCell As Word.Cell Set wDoc = appWord.Documents.Add(strDocLoc) wDoc.Visible = True
[Code] ....
The code will shrink the table down just fine if the table has more rows than the recordset +1 (for header column). My hangup with this is the last line ("Selection.InsertRowsBelow 5") isn't executing; rows are not being added to the table. I get no errors -- it just does nothing. I set it as "Selection.InsertRowsBelow 5" arbitrarily just to see if it would even add rows, and sure enough it's not.
In my transaction table, I would like to find out the latest transaction dates of each family models. It sounds a simple Max function can get the desired result. However model number consists of the first 6 characters for the family model and the rest for the versions (variants). The Max function fails to work in this scenario. Is there any other way to group the model numbers once the 1st 6 characters are identical (the rest is ignored)?
Hey ppl. I run a query based on a table and 2 other queries, and based on these I get Fcode field from the table and two number fields from the queries (one from each query). If the number is null in either of the fields (it can be null because the number comes from a count statement) I cannot add the 2 fields together, because I always get null unless I have a number on both of them.
Anyway because I think I've confused you enough the title describes best my needs. How to put zero character within a query to replace Null?
I am exporting a table to word and I have come across a problem. My code opens a template, creates a table with the correct number of rows and columns at a certain position, and then adds data to it. At this point, everything is fine. But, here is where the problem sticks its ugly head out. I am modifying the column widths and every other time I run it, it crashes, saying something about not being able to access the remote server. Run time error 462. I have checked in the task manager that word is being quit properly each time and tried going to different templates. The first time I run it, it runs fine. The second time, it crashes on the line where I change the width. Here is the line of code.
mytable.Columns(1).Width = InchesToPoints(1.2)
I have found that if I close the document after it is created and leave word open, it will run fine. I think I am in the same boat as mrpauly. But his post date is 23rd April 2001… http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=26363
Has anyone else seen or heard anything like this? I’m really confused… Thanks for any help anyone can give.
Hello, I made a database application and i need some help: in the application i use a script that modifies word documents by opening ms word application, but some customers don't want to install ms word. I'm asking if someone knows tto exist some kind of word runtime that i can modify word documents without having word installed. I'm using also vb6.
I'm trying to create a database for a construction company, as an experiment more than anything, and my problem is this:
I need to create a set of identical records in the table "buildings" based on the information entered into a text box by a user on the form for registering a new project. I want each record to be identical except for the "plot number" field, which I want to start at one and increase to the number of buildings defined in the text box.
"Projects" is one table and "Plots" is in the other.
Exporting datasheet to word, how is this possible using vb. Actually, I do have a thread in Form forum. But, I think not a lot of people visit that place. Anyways, I have created bookmarked and used datavariable to export the data (by ansentry's help). But the only thing that it exports is just one selection on that datasheet, instead of all the chosen rows.
I am exhausted now after searching everywhere, and not finding a clue. How to resolve that situation. If there is an example that I can use, that would be gr8.
Right the thing is i can export my reports to word but when they export they don't hold the lines that i placed around the text boxes, this is becoming quite annoying as the reason i put the lines around the boxes,was so when the report is output it looks like the original.
Im having a problem getting this code to work. It is meant to fire up Word (which it does), open up a new doc based on the template (which it also does) and then populate a field in the doc with data from the query table (which it doesn't).
I've put the fields in the Word doc via firstly, defining them as Custom Document Properties in the File, Properties box, and then as "{ DOCPROPERTY "<fieldname>" *MERGEFORMAT }" codes in the text.
The field in the Word doc is type 'text' and the field in Access is type 'text', so I am stumped by the "Type Mismatch" error it gives when attempting to get/open the recordset. It hasnt even got to transferring the values across to the doc.?
Ive not done this before (Access newbie) and even found creating the custom fields in Word not as straighforward as I expected!
Please can someone help?

1. Trying to insert a link to an image using a bound OLE object in my form. Now I've got it top work. However, the link appears normal size in the centre of the object box. Problem is when I resize the oject box so that llink text just fits fine. The text resizes with the box and you need a microscope to read it.
2. I want to be able to cerate merged letter but I cant select Tools>Merge it with MS word fro some reason (i've aslo tried with with DB's we use in work with same problem) but publish with Word is available.:confused:
I am by no means an expert with Access so please, please post replies in lamens terms.
This is my First post - so please be kind. I'm quite new at coding things and have learnt almost every thing from this forum so far by search old posts but can't find the answer to the below. I know how frustrating it must be to answer the same question over and over again so if this has been answered before please accept my appologies and if you could direct me to the old post I'll pick it up from there.
I have managed to get my DB to output to Excel using the below code:
is there a way to associate a word document to a table entry?
i would like to create a database of microsoft word files where you can search for a certain keyword that is linked to a word document. is there a way to do this?
Im new here so Hi!My name is jitze de wilde. Im from the netherlands. Im 21. I work at www.visualmedia.nlOn my current asignment im collecting data on all the business in the local area.I aquired alot of information and there are bount to be duplicates. now my question. Is there a way in Access to fish out duplicate items or records (dont know the name)?example:I enter the following data.Kreeft Holding B.V.Agarica B.V.S.I.T. Controls B.V.Robatechniek B.V.Mannak Techniek B.V.Kip Caravans B.V.Van Venrooy B.V.Robatechniek B.V.In the list Robatechniek B.V. exists twice. Is there a way access will prompt a message "item already exists" or something like that?
I have a table in my database with a field called description. Imagine if one of my discriptions is "I learn a lot in access world forums". I need a query that if I look only for a word "access" will retrieve this discription. Is this possible to be done in access?
I have created this command button from tools that output the access report into word file. However, it prints all the record into word file, is there a way that it would print one record or selective record at a time. I mean, lets just say if I am on record 3 after I am done I press the button and I don't want it to output 1 to 3 record just the 3rd one. Is it possible to do it like that or not?
Okay, I searched prolly even hit my head over the keyboard several times to find something resourceful in context to what I am looking for. But I didn’t, if there is something out there and it didn’t appear during my search or I missed it by any chance. Then accept my apologies. Now here is the question.
I have a master form and a subform, now I am able to send my master form to word, and my subform is in the form of datasheet. And this datasheet has a combo box, so the user can select as my options as they want. I want these options to export to word with the master form. I tried doing that through doc variable and also as book mark, but the only thing that’s transferring is the first field. I know couple of ppl went through the same trouble to achieve the same goal as me. And they asked the same question but their queries were un-answered, is it something that can not be done??? I am sure there has to be a way to do this; I am looking for some assistance here. That I will really appreciate.
I know I have a topic going on for a while now, about the same topic. But seem like there is no point of bringing that thread up over again, and it’s kind of dead.

I have a question to ask you all. This has been killing :( me I have not been able to find an answer. :confused:
Lets say I have a form open. In this form, there are text boxes that have a persons name, address, an account number, and phone number. This part is the easy part.
Now, what I would like to do is some how when you click on the account number, (it doesn't have to be a link) it will open up another form that shows available Word Documents for only that account number.
Different account numbers will have different Word Documents available to them. When this new form opens, then the user can pick a Word Document that is available to them.
I have searched the forums for similar problem but I was unable to find it.
I have some buttons that export the data from a form into a Word Document. It generally works but there are some issues.
I have Access 2003 but the people using it only use the runtime version of Access and the environment is Office 2000.
I have copied code from other examples and maybe missing something that is causing the issues.
1. When I export the record it is causing problems with the Normal.dot template. When I try to close Word it keeps asking me that I have modified that template. After pressing Cancel button twice it the save box disappears. 2. When I leave the code Dim objWord As word.Application I get an error message about a compile error User defined Type not defined. 2. When the users try to export a record to the specific word template I created and a required field is empty an error message is displayed and then closes the application.
Any help will be appreciated. I am a newbie when it comes to code.
Sample code is below. Private Sub Command1079_Click() Dim objWord As word.Application 'Start Microsoft Word 2000. Set objWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
With objWord 'Make the application visible. .Visible = False
'path and name of the template your are using. ' objWord.Documents.Add ("U:Asset Strategy and Commercial PropertyCommercial PropertyTaskmasterletterofobjection.dot") .Documents.Open ("C:Documents and SettingsDadMy DocumentsWorkTaskmasterletterofobjection.dot")
'This is for the bookmark that you created in the template
Print_Reconsideration_Err: 'If a field on the form is empty, remove the bookmark text, and 'continue. If Err.Number = 94 Then .Selection.Text = "" Resume Next
End If objWord.Application.Options.PrintBackground = False objWord.Application.ActiveDocument.PrintOut
