I am using DoCmd.TransferDatabase to transfer 2 tables from one database to another. This works fine, however, the user permissions for those tables do not carry over with the table and I have to go into the database and set them as they were in the original database.
Simply, I want to allow complete access for all users to the tables in the second database.
Does anyone have a solution to this?
Thanks
I understand that any data that is inputted into a form is always transferred back to the table in question.
In the form I created, I had
4 subheading scores added together to form another subheading named function =([1]+[2]+[3]+[4])/4 was the formula that I put into the control source. The calculation worked fine on the form giving me the correct name. However, this number did not transfer back to the table simple being labelled as zero. Can someone please advice!
I'm trying to transfer records from a table in one subform to another subform (on same form) using a checkbox as a filter:
Private Sub TransferAndReview_Click()
Dim db As dao.Database
Dim strSQL As String
strSQL = "INSERT INTO Forms![Extra Work Report Checksheet]![Equipment Input Subform1].Form[(QuantityUsed[, HoursUsed])] VALUES (QuantityUsed[, HoursUsed]) FROM Forms![Extra Work Report Checksheet]![Equipment Checksheet Table Subform] WHERE [Extra Work Report Checksheet]![Equipment Input Subform1].Form[EquipmentUsed]=True;"
Set db = CurrentDb
db.Execute strSQL, dbFailOnError
End Sub
The Main form is: [Extra Work Report Checksheet]
Subforms are: [Equipment Input Subform1] & [Equipment Checksheet Table Subform]
Checkbox field is: [EquipmentUsed]
I keep getting the error "Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement" which points to 'db.Execute strSQL, dbFailOnError' and I don't understand why. Neither of the fields [QuanityUsed] or [HoursUsed] are lookup fields, etc.
I need to import the tables from a secure database into a new database, is there any way to keep the table permissions that are set in the secure database, they seem to be lost in the import.

Would Read, Write, & Execute on the networked folder where the BE resides be enough for the users to update the database?

I need to redesign a database to include more complex relationships between 3 variables non of which are mutually exclusive.These are my 3 tables/fields. Each field is unique in its table.
T_Project.JobNo
T_Accession.AccessionNo
T_Reports.ReportNo
There is no clear relationship between the variables - ie they can all be 1 to 1 or 1 to many or do not have to exist at all. So I realise now (after 14 years of working with this data), that I need to have what I would think of as holding tables between the primary tables that hold combinations of the variables. Do I do this in one table that holds all 3 variables in non-repeating combinations (although this would need to allow nulls) or do I do it in 3 separate holding tables?
I am trying to create a table which would include financial data, by year, by client. For example:
Client #1
2009 2010 2011
Revenue 5000 10000 1200
Expenses 2000 1000 700
Net Income 3000 9000 500
Client #2
2009 2010 2011
Revenue 5000 10000 1200
Expenses 2000 1000 700
Net Income 3000 9000 500
Etc.
Should I have headers as such:
Client #, 2009Revenue, 2009Expenses, 2009NetIncome, 2010Revenue, 2010Expenses, 2010NetIncome, 2011Revenue, 2011Expenses, 2011NetIncome
Three tables:
Employee, Sessions, EmployeeSessions.
Many sessions can have many employees - thus the joining table has been included.
When trying to delete an employee from the database using a form, I encounter the error:
The record cannot be deleted or changed because table 'tblEmployeeSessions' includes related records
Is there a problem with my table relationship structure? Or is it 'correct' that as the employee is supervising a session he/she cannot be deleted as this would interfere and maybe mess up the session record?
In my tables i have used calculated fields. one of the fields is to "total expenses." In a report, i need to show the sum of all the "total expenses", the filed populates in the report but the cents are missing. for example if the amount is 6080.40 it shows as 6080. how can i get around this? I have tried changing the decimal point value to 2 at which point the value turns to 6080.00 when it should be 6080.40 (i am a beginner at this i am assuming the answer will probably involve c++ or visual basic's, two concepts i am not familiar with.)
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been asked to assist a local non-profit transfer an Access DB to a new server. The DB was set up a number of years ago and the designers are no longer available.
The old server is set up as a workgroup server, and the new server is set up as a domain server. (I am completely unfamiliar with how networks are set up...I've never dealt with this end before.)
The designers set up a .mdw file which (I believe) controls permissions etc. After much wrangling, we finally uncovered the admin password. However, even signed in on a workstation as the admin w/ full rights, I still can't copy a functional version of the DB to removable media in order to move it to the new server.
The server does not have MS Access loaded....only the .mdb and .mdw files.
I *think* I have to replace the 'secured' .mdw file with a generic, clean .mdw. Do I need to do this on the server, or the workstations, or both?
What am I doing wrong????
Thanks!
Hi, I'm running 2 append queries to my existing db to update fields in one table with data from 2 sources - basically plucking some fields from one and some from the other (using a client ID number as the common identifier - the data is fed into the parent table). However, it would appear that some of the data is not transferring into the parent table even though it is visible in the source file (.xls). I know that this seems like a broad request but I'm just wondering if there may be a potential simple error. Any ideas?
Cheers....

Does anyone know if it is possible to transfer data from an old MSDos database into an Access 2003 one?
If so any idea how you would go about doing this?
Thanks in advance.
My program is finally complete, much thanks to everyone here that helped me!
Here's (hopefully) my final issue:
I haven't actually tested this yet to see if it's an actual issue, but I assume it might be. The program i just built needs to be transferred to my client's computer. currently my program consists of three files: PROGRAM.mdb (interface), DATA.mdb (linked tables), PROGRAM.mdw (security file). they are in their own separate folder (C:Program) and play nicely together. i'm concerned because i think that once i zip it up and email it over, when my client unzips it into a folder on his hard drive (named c:program so he doesn't have to re-link them), it might not work because of the .mdw file. if anyone recalls my thread entitled "H E L P ! ! ! !" you see why I'm concerned.
should this just run without a problem, or do i need to have him do all sorts of steps to reassemble the program?
usual lifesavers? i love you guys
Thanks

In one form i have a field called "address" and if the address changes I want to - by clicking a command button or such - automatically transfer this field into a field called "previous address" on another form. How can I do this??
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi all. Hopefully this will be a simple thing...What I have is one main table (RFA Main) and two related tables (S/R Disposition and Suppliers). RFA Main has a two check boxes (ScrapRewrk and SupActs) that I am using to trigger append queries that append the following SQL statement:
Suppliers table
INSERT INTO Suppliers ( LogNum, Originator, ReportDateOp, PartNum, PartNumDesc, ProbDesc, CustRtn, RmaNum )
SELECT [RFA Main].LogNum, [RFA Main].Originator, [RFA Main].ReportDateOp, [RFA Main].PartNum, [RFA Main].PartNumDesc, [RFA Main].ProbDesc, [RFA Main].CustRtn, [RFA Main].RmaNum
FROM [RFA Main]
WHERE ((([RFA Main].SupAct)=True));
S/R Disposition table
SQL the same except for the WHERE statement reads ((([RFA Main}.ScrapRewrk)=True));
First, what kind of statement would I use to trigger the append query when the boxes are checked? Currently, the users are doing these append queries manually by clicking command buttons.
Second, is there an easier way to do it?
Thanks in advance

I have created a database that deals with inventory control. My next step that I have been approaching is to click a command button that opens up a separate from but takes specific information from FORM 1 into the new FORM that I just created.
So if a specific Employee takes out 4 aprons from a total of 50 and there are now 46 left, I would like the submit button to transfer that data over accordingly to Inventory control form in the correct text boxes.
Specific Example: If employee John Doe takes 4 aprons from a total of 50 which now leaves 46 how can I transfer that data into the other form showing specific information like 'Product ID' taken, 'Date' it was taken, 'Product Description', 'Employee' who took it, 'Amount Taken' and, 'total' left. I need the extended information to show up in the text boxes on form 2.
Is there a certain code that does this? Here are screen shots so you can get a visual....
Hi All,
I've attached a picture which shows the problem.
I need to know the expression required to transfer the name of a football team (selected on a form with a combo box) onto a report.
The teams all have ID numbers, and so far its the ID thats getting transferred, not the team name.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks

Can this be done through a macro ?
If not, what would be a simple way to do this ?
thanks.
Not sure how easy this one will be but here goes.
I currently have a database which collects details of event effecting our business and am using a simple query that displays events within a defined date range.
I have also set an excel sheet which on the main worksheet appears as a calender format for a particular month which is updated by data in the access query. At the moment I tranfer the query to excel and it appears as a new sheet which I then have to link to the master calender.
Is there any way when exporting to excel to tell access to send the data to a particular sheet and cell range and even more advanced tell it were to put certain dates information? i.e send 1st March info to cells A1 to A4, 2nd to A5 to A8 etc.
Hope someone has some ideas on this one - even being able to send all data a specific cell range would be useful
I suppose thatīs easy, but I only accomplished one by one by selecting a specific record.

I have one table of records that I would like to query and display the results.
I have created a form that asks the user for criteria for the query (search).
Then I want to display the results from that query in another form (results).
The problem is that I cannot figure out how to do it.
The results form is using the query as its source. I have tried running the
search and then opening the results form, but I get a message saying that
I tried to lock the table but it was in use.
Is there a way to link these forms so that i can bring up the search form,
perform the search, and have the results brought up in the results form?
Thanks for the help.
I have one form that is serving as a popup while the parent form remains open... in my code for the popup I'm trying to transfer the value of a textbox to the actual textbox on the parent form... seems easy, but I get this message: "You can't reference a property or method for a control unless the control has the focus" with this code:
Private Sub btnExportData_Click()
[Form]![Worksheet]![txtBookedNotBanked] = Me.txtTotal1.Text
End Sub
... also is there a way to code this so the popup closes when the transfer is made?
I have a form (frmJob) that has a combobox (cmbCompany). If a new company is not in the table the NotInList code opens another form (frmCompany) and a new company is added into the textbox (txtCoName).
The code below is the code that closes the frmCompany after entering new company.
The first part of the code (Add new company into table) works and adds the new company into table but the second part (Add new company into frmJob) does not, and the new company does not appear in the cmbCompany combobox. Note: frmJob remains open while data is entered into frmCompany.
How can I get the second portion of the code to work?
Code:
Public RemCompany As String
Private Sub cmdCloseCompany_Click()
"FIRST PORTION - Add new company into table
Dim dbCom As Database
Dim recCom As Recordset
Set dbCom = CurrentDb
[Code] .....
Is there a way to transmit data from an MSWord Form to an Access table?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI found this sample (http://home.earthlink.net/~mgf00/SelectDemo.zip) which allows you to move your selections from one listbox to another with four buttons (<<, <, > and >>) which is just perfect.
Well, almost, actually.
This is already set up to protect against duplicates and that's a good thing. However in my case, my uppers want me to allow duplicates. The code is beyond my ability and my attempts only caused more problems.
The code requires a unique index be generated when the selection is moved between the listbox. Duplicating the index will cause error, and my attempt to circumvent that has either failed totally or is inconsistent (e.g. works if it comes up with a unique value, but will fail if it happens to duplicate a key).
Can anyone show me how I can modify the code to allow for duplicates? The selections then will be looped into a many side table.
