Jul 25, 2005Hopefully someone can help....
I'm trying to change the name of a column in a table using SQL. I've tried different combinations but always get
"Syntax error in Alter Table statement"
SQL I've tried
alter table tblImport
rename column F1 to [Date];*
alter tblImport
rename column F1 to [Date];
alter table tblImport
rename F1 to [Date];
I've checked this out via some SQL sites & think the first version (*) is correct....can someone throw light on this? I'm using Access2000
Using A Select Query To Rename A Column Name?
Sep 30, 2005Is there any way to use a select query where it will select the values off of my database but temporarily use a different column name for one of the columns???
I have 3 different item names stored in my main table. When I compare this to another table, I want to select one of the item names and just pass that as item_name. This way, I can have the same compare routine instead of writing a different compare routine for each item name. Any way? Thanks a lot for the help in advance!

I know this is pretty basic stuff but I MS Access is not my strong point.

There are no reports or queries attached to it.

Thanks.

May 24, 2005On the form On load event I have code verifying if a condition is true or not. If the condition is true, it does some things, now I want also to rename a form if the condition is true. So, I have created a macro to do this. But if I open the DB for second, third.... time and the condition is still true the macro can't find the specifyed form and brings up an error message wich gives to user the possibility to Debug. This way he has access to the code , and I don't want this to hapen.
Can I do this by using code and keeping the user away from code?

Shell Object Rename Help
Jan 24, 2007Hi~
First off, sorry about the title; I couldn't really come up with anything that made sense.
Here's what I'm trying to do, I am trying to rename a table in one database from within another (there is a really good reason why I want to do it from somewhere other than the db that contains the object). Here is what I have so far in my code:
Private Sub cmdTest_Click()
Dim strSource As String 'the db that contains the table I want to rename
strSource = Application.CurrentProject.Path & " est1.mdb"
'Shell the file
Shell "C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE11msaccess.exe """ & strSource & "", vbNormalFocus
'Acknowledge security and open
SendKeys "NO", True
End Sub
of course I'm missing the part that would rename the object. I guess what I'm trying to do at this point is be able to run the docmd.rename command and have it execute in test1.mdb (the shelled db) as opposed to test2.mdb (the db that contains the code). Is this possible? How?
Thanks
Mass Table Rename
Dec 14, 2005I've been asked to come up with a way (one-off) of renaming over 100 hundred tables. The table are all called "STUD_ADMIN_blah". We need to remove the "STUD_ADMIN_" part of the table name.
Is there a nice easy way of doing this without having to physically rename each table individually?
Thanks in advance.

Rename Field Names Using VBA
Mar 14, 2006Hello, I'm currently working on automating the import of a csv file (which works fine using the Transfertext method) but the csv file does not contain field names.
I want to rename the fields with something meaningful after importing the file, but I can't seem to figure out how to do this using the tabeldef method of handling tables. There's nothing in the help, not that I could find anyway.
Does anyone know whether this can be done and how, cheers.

I am copying many many music cds to my hard drive. However, the song file names on the cds are track01.mp3, track02.mp3, etc. I have all the real songnames for each cd listed in the database. I need a way to rename the songs with their real names one cd at a time. My thought was to populate one table with the directory and filenames (track--) of the songs and populate another table with real songnames from the database. Then, somehow, rename the files. I'm lost. I hope someone can help!
Tables :: Rename A Table Field Name
Apr 18, 2014I was working on my DB, cleaning up some of the field name that were cumbersome and everything worked fine. Today I was doing some follow up work and I cannot change the field names. All I want to do it change the name of a field from CITY to City, but it won't let me do it. I have tried, change from single click to double click, but I was already using double click to open an object; unchecked Auto-Correct, still nothing.
Yesterday I was able to modify a name from Actions to Action (simply deleting one letter. And State/Province to StateProvince. Worked fine. What bothers me is that I have been able to change a field name before and now I can't. I have tried compact and restore, etc.
Modules & VBA :: Rename PDF Attached To Email
Dec 13, 2013I'm using 2013. The first version of my code works great. It opens the correct report and attaches it to an e-mail as a pdf with all of my text etc.
Code:
Private Sub btnEMail_Click()
On Error GoTo errHandler
Dim strReport As String
Dim vMsg As String
Dim vSubject As String
Dim strWhere As String
strReport = "RptJobDSD"
[Code] ....
The problem I have is I would like to rename the pdf, so instead of "RptJobDSD" everytime, it can have some fields [DSDDate] and [JobID] etc.
Before trying the fancy field stuff I thought I'd try just "DSD Test" and see if I could rename it in the first place!
I added this and am getting - Error(32004) - The control name 'RptJobDSD' is misspelled or refers to a control that doesn't exist.
Code:
DoCmd.OpenReport strReport, acViewPreview, , strWhere
DoCmd.SetProperty strReport, acPropertyCaption, "DSD Test"
DoCmd.SendObject acSendReport, strReport, acFormatPDF, , , , vSubject, vMsg, True
My confusion comes as the OpenReport and SendObject recognise strReport why doesn't SetProperty?!
Modules & VBA :: Batch Copy And Rename
Jun 25, 2013This code is supposed to loop around a directory of photos (named after a project), and then copy a new photos (from another directory) to this folder, numbering them and the logging them in a table tphotos.The first time a copy photos to a new directory the code works fine. And I think I had it working fine before, but now when I copy photos to a pre-existing directory that has already photos, it only overwrites the first photo, instead looking for the last photo and attributing the new photo number n+1.
I've done debug.print in the code, and it looks like is not going into If NewFileName = f1.Name, therefore doesn't compare the newfilename with the files in the folder.
Code:
Private Sub cmdAddPhoto_Click()
Dim fs, f, f1, fc, s
Dim fDial As FileDialog
Dim SourcefileName, destDir, FileExt, NewFileName, prjID As String
Dim intSel, FileNumber As Integer
Dim varSelFile As Variant
Dim rsPhoto As Recordset
Dim myDB As Database

Aug 24, 2006Hi,
I am running an autocompact module in Access97 which will created a 'compacted version' of my database. I then want to rename this compacted version to the name of the original database I compacted. I cannot however find a way of doing this in code.
Basically the idea is to compact every 45 minutes or so, but what my autocompact is doing is creating a compacted version under a different name, and so compacting a copy of the database, I then want to change this compacted database name to the original name and re compact every 45 mins
Can anyone help?
Access XP And Sql Svr 2000 Field Rename Problem
Apr 23, 2007Hello everyone,
I hope I’m in the right forum for the question I’m asking.
I’m using MS Access XP with Sql Server 2000 in an Access ADP. I am still designing my Sql Server database and recently I deleted field called “EmpStatus” from my database. When I tried to open the table I got a message that the field “EmpStatus” could not be found. I tried refreshing the table names and reconnecting to the database but neither of those options work and I couldn’t open the table. I finally had to add the field “EmpStatus” back to the table before the table would open.
I experimented with this problem and found that if you change a field name or delete a field in a table either by using enterprise manager or the Access UI, that table will no longer open in an Access project. I even tried creating a new ADP using the same sql server database and that table still l wouldn’t open.
Can anyone explain to me why this is happening, what I doing wrong , or how to get around this problem?
I’m using Access XP and Sql Server 2000
Thanks

Rename In Access 2007 Navigation Pane
Jan 25, 2008Does anyone have a problem renaming tables, queries, etc in the Navigation Pane? The Pane is set to view by list. If I right-click on an object then click on Rename, the focus just moves to another object. If I use the shortcut menu key on the keyboard then type "m" for rename, the inside of the orange highlighted object turns blue briefly to show you can type in it, then immediately reverts to orange. I don't know if this is a problem with my PC (HP laptop running Vista) or with Access.
