I created a form with lots of conditional formatting that did pretty much everything I wanted it to do. The only problem is that it takes about 4 full minutes for the form to open.
As an experiment I am reluctantly now trying to display the results in Excel. I have created a template xls sheet and all I want to do is, on the press of a button, copy the results from my query and paste them in to cell a1 of my spreadsheet.
I found the following code online which I am trying to adapt.
Code:
Private Sub update_tracker_Click()
Dim XL As Excel.Application
Dim wbTarget As Workbook
Dim qdfResults As QueryDef
Dim rsResults As Recordset
'Set up refernce to the query to export
[Code] ....
My limited knowledge however results in a couple of errors.
The first error User defined type not defined error appears at the very first line of my code
Code:
Dim XL As Excel.Application
The next error occurs as I am not sure how to reference the query to export. The query is called 2014 Resources and outputs also to a form called 2014 Resources.
Moving data from one table to another table. Mainly we are using "Insert into table2 select* from table with where condition".
But in this case data moved one table to another as copy paste.
Is it any way to go data as cut paste...
I am trying to accomplish this in a macro. I know I was able to do this in older versions of access.I want to get data from a query and paste and append into a table. When I started to design the macro this is far as I got:
Qry Name: GetData
Table Name Storedata
Macro:
1st OpenQuery
Query Name: GetData
View: Datasheet
[code]...
The ? marks I cannot find any options in the macro actions catalog.
I have set up a database that stores actions (i.e jobs). In the table; two of the fields are...'required completion date' and 'actual completion date'. I wish to lookup, by using a query, all of the open actions (those which havent yet been complete (i.e the 'actual completion date' is null)) and then later on all those which are overdue (i.e the 'actual completion date' is null And the 'required completion date' <today....this being the criteria for an overdue action).
However, I have used a form which has a combo box which contains the values open and overdue. When a selection has been made I want a form to display with the results depending on the selection that has been made. I am capable of creating a form based on a query, but am unsure of how to construct the query with the correct criteria based on the option that is selected from the form.
Any help would gratefully be appreciated. Thanks
I have data for hundreds of stores. The data was pulled for the top 15 items by store, so I cannot obtain only the top 5 items that I need. How can I query this data to extract only the top (or bottom) 5 Subjects, by store, based on the percentage column?

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
Hi All,
I've created an Access Database off of an old Fox Pro System. What I need to do is take the data from the tables in the old system and convert them in Access '03. I have roughly 4600 records to transfer.
When I copy the data from the old system and paste it in an Access table, only 300 or so records are pasted. Also, when I check the paste errors, there are less than 100 in there. Where are they going?
Some of the files aren't pasting because there were input errors on some. Others are linked with a department and Acct number and some of those are no longer current, so another reason why some of these records aren't pasting. This is a problem, but should only be around 500-1000 records tops.
I have noticed if I paste less at a time, I get less errors and more are actually copied through, but I don't know exactly how many I should do at a time?
Some questions I have are:
1. How many should I paste at a time?
2. Am I missing something with the paste errors, is there like a setting I can adjust?
3. Is there a better way to convert this old table into a new table?
Any suggestions or comments would be great because I have been stuck on this for a while and I DO NOT want to input these records one by one.
Thank you in advance,
Josh
Here's an email I sent to one of my friends seeing if he had any insight. I might explain my problem a little better here:
Purchasing Department has an old Fox Pro Contract System. I made this same system into Access and it works great. My problem is now converting the tables from the old system into the new system. There are approx. 4200 records. I have tried pasting them all in together and also sections at a time, but everything I do so, I get more or less copied through, and more or less paste errors displaying the ones that hadn’t copied over.
The reason some are not pasting in is because of old user input errors. Another reason is department and account numbers have changed therefore when the copy takes place, if Access doesn’t recognize an Acct number, then it cannot relate it to a department and will not paste in. I’m fine with that though. The problem I’m having is I’m always getting different amounts of errors each time I do this. For example, I did the first 500 records. Had 21 paste errors, all the others pasted fine. I then tried to do less so I copied the first 400 and only received 3 errors, but then I did the next 400 after that and only 200 pasted through and it only displayed 20 or so paste errors. I think there are roughly 400-500 bad records so I’m not understanding why all but those 400-500 paste.
Hi.
I'm having trouble with two tables. I'm trying to COPY and PASTE some data from one table to the other. The tables are an exactly match apparently, I check each field and they match. Once I COPY one table data and go to the next table to PASTE APPEND , it starts pasting and all of a sudden stops and I get this message:
"THE TEXT YOU ENTERED ISN'T AN ITEM IN THE LIST. SELECT AN ITEM FROM THE LIST OR ENTER TEXT THAT MATCHES ONE OF THE ITEMS."
So, I have no idea what ITEMS it's reffering to. I click OK, and I keeps telling me same thing for at least 4 OK's clicks. After I'm asked if I am sure I want to past such number of records, by then, only a porcentage of the records are copied, not all. If I say NO I do not want to copy, it still copies anyway, but again, not all the date, just a portion.
Would you have any idea how I can get this problem solved or how did I get into this mess anyway?
I'd appreciate it.
Thanks.

I have a subform that populates the same data for every day. What I would like to do is have an OnClick even fill in all the records at once. I have tried a method of pasting, but I am sure I am either doing it worng or there is a better way.
My code:
Private Sub Command65_Click()
Me.StoreID.SetFocus
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdPasteSpecial, "349"
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdRecordsGoToNew
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdPasteSpecial, "352"
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdRecordsGoToNew
End Sub
I figured set focus on the first one fill in the storeid then go to next record, fill in the next storeid, etc. This does not work right.
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 lookup a list of employees (in a form) and by double clicking a name listed, have that name pasted into another form or Sub form to add details to it.
I want to select a number of employees and add info such as attending a training session, plus the topics covered, instructors name etc. I want to add this info once but relate it to a number of employees who attend the training???
Anyone know the answer? I'm testing something out but I'm using another querying tool to get the data which is greater than 65k (excels limit), so I can't import the data I have to manually copy/paste.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI 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?
I have 2 tables , one table I want to use as temporary information the other to use as permanent information
For example if I have 6 records in one table , I want to be able to press a button that removes those 6 records from the temporary table and put them in the permanent table. Then later as I add more to the temporary data table again press a button and then temporary data is added to the permanent table.
Therefore the temporary table will always be empty when I press the button and the permanent table will keep adding the information I transfer across .
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

Hi all,
I'm quite new to access, and have a pretty straightforward problem (I hope):
I have a table with 300 records in 10 columns. I want to:
1. filter the data based on column A (gives me 150 visible records)
2. Copy from an excel spreadsheet which exactly matches the access table (single column only, 150 rows)
3. Paste into a new column I created in the access table
Unfortunately, when I hit paste in access, it loses the filter and pastes the data into the complete dataset (i.e. into the wrong records).
I've no idea why access won't keep the filter I set. I also tried numbering the records and sorting them based on this new column. Again, Access lost the sort order before pasting the data.
Help!
I really need to be able to paste my excel data into the table in access!
Can anyone shed some light for me?
Thanks in advance,
Lee

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 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.
