I am trying to add an input mask to my video Field, so that it is always enter correctly. V-1-2015, what I have so >"V-"099-0000, but it is showing spaces if nothing is inputted for the 99 fields, if I add in !>"V-"099-0000 it then removes those spaces since those are optional characters, but then the V is no longer capitalized. How can I correctly have an input mask that keeps the V always capitalized and have mandatory fields and optional fields without spaces. I want it to come out as V-1-2015, or V-11-2015 or V-111-2015.

Ive seen commercial licenses for an activex control. The form Im imagining would have a window showing the live video with a snapshot button where we could store the image as a jpg for example and then generate an email forwarding on the image. It seems possible!

Ok, I know this is already part of another thread, but my problem is a bit more complex...
The database I've been designing catalogs traffic signal equipment at every intersection in a 12-county area. There's about 480 intersections in the database. My boss pointed out the need to have the intersections listed in geographic order. For example, if I have three intersections on IL Rte. 5 - John Deere Rd, Bauer Parkway, and Industrial Park Rd, they need to be listed in the order in which they exist on the road (from east to west or north to south). Alphabetically, the intersections would be Bauer, Industrial, John Deere. But, as you drive down the road (from east to west), the intersections occur as Industrial, Bauer, and John Deere.
I can sort the intersections according to their "corridors" without any trouble, but I have to force the geographic order of the individual intersections by assigning each an index value (like "1", "2", and "3"). Better yet, I can assign the indices in multiples of 10, 100 or 1000, (1,2,3 becomes 10,20,30 or 100, 200, 300, etc.) and guarantee there will likely always be a sequential position available in the geographic index for a new intersection. Plus, I can always pick the "middle" of the range for each new insertion. For example, if Bauer has a geographic index of 200 and John Deere's is 300, then I can give Zebulon a value of 250 - leaving equal room for insertions before and after Zebulon in the future.
Pulling this off isn't hard - I know how to do it. The problem is running out of positions in the index. In the case of my database, it is unlikely we'll ever add more than two or three intersections between two existing ones, so using multiples 100 is probably best. In this case, I can add at least 6 intersections before I run into the possibility of having two intersections whose indices have a difference of only 1. Using 1000, the value goes up to 9. Each multiple of ten gives you 3 more entries (minimum) before encountering consecutive indices. I guess the inherent problem is figuring out a more "infinite" way of accomplishing this. I don't readily need it, but on the off chance that I do end up with consecutive intersections (that I have to insert between), it'll require manual re-numbering to fix the problem.
That's my solution, but there may be something simpler. Any thoughts?
just wondering if anyone knows how to insert about 10 lines of data into an already existing table?

The security table is made up of two primary keys: thing, personorgroup
When i run this statement to insert into the security table
INSERT INTO security (thing, personorgroup, accessrights)
SELECT '252600649', '4020', '255'
FROM PROFILE
WHERE not exists(select * from security
where security.thing = '252600649' and security.personorgroup = '4020');
I get this error:
Server: Msg 2627, Level 14, State 1, Line 25
Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_SECURITY'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'SECURITY'.
The statement has been terminated.
Anybody know how i can perform my insert successfully? :D
i am trying to achieve a simple thing (at least it seems so to me!)...
I am trying to add a new record to a table (LP_Product_Name) with only one field (Product_Name) as a part of a 'on Lost Focus' event of a text box (txb_ProductName).
Code:Private Sub txb_productname_LostFocus()' Declare Variables Dim db As Database Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Set db = Nothing Set rs = Nothing' Assign Values to Variables Set db = CurrentDb() Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("LP_Product_Name")' Enter New Product name to the table With rs .AddNew .Fields("Product_Name") = Me.txb_productname End With ' Close variables Set db = Nothing Set rs = Nothing' Restore Visible formMe.cmb_productname.Visible = TrueMe.cmb_productname.SetFocusMe.txb_productname.Visible = FalseEnd Sub
When I type something in the textbox and shift focus to another field, nothing happens... no error message and no added value to the table! I dont know what is going on. It just doesnt work!
On the same form I also have a combo box that uses the same table (LP_Product_Name) as its rowsource. I want the Combo box to immediately show this added value.
Can someone please help!?!
Thanks!
HI,
I would like to insert values to differetn tables using a form, is that possible with just access? or does it need VB script or SQL, if so, is there any example to follow.
my form made of a combination of two tables attributes ad when I enter say:
name
tel number
address
car
car reg
booking time
then I would need that info to go to the table it belongs to, as there is three tables, one is the car, the other is customer and the last is booking.
thanks
Hi All,
This should be a simple thing however Im having some problems. Im trying to insert a record into access. I can insert everything except the date. I cant seem to get the right format. Below is what Im trying:
Code:strSQL ="INSERT INTO GISrequest (givenName, surName, email, division, title, purpose, audience, date) VALUES ('firstmname', "&strVal1&", 'anemail@somewhere.com', 'thedivision', 'thetitle', 'purposestring', 'audience',#" & AccessDate(NOW()) & "#)"
I think the error is in how I format the date, but Im not sure. Ive looked on the net for examples but I havent found anything that works... can someone suggest what may be wrong or perhaps provide (or point me to ) an example of inserting a date into an access database with ASP?
Many Thanks

To Whom It May Concern
I would like to know how can I insert a new row between an existing row in an Access Table
For example,
I want to insert a new row between line number 122 and 123. Do I need to get rid of the primary key or change it to Number. What I am doing now in order to have several topics group together on a report such as "Activities Topic" and a Date field for that topic. However, there are various topics under the Activities topic. Each new information that is being updated for this topic I have to reorder the number by the topic name in the Order field so that the date will be in chronoligal order in the report.
Is there a better way in do this?:confused:
Hi!
I hope this is the right section for posting this Q.
I use Access 2003 on WinXP pro as front-end & for back-end a MySql on a Linux server. I use MyODBC to connect to the back-end and all the tables are on the back-end. The workstation is connected to the server via VPN (so the server and the station are on different locations).
Quite often I get a problem that not all records are inserted into a table. E.g. I have like 5 - 15 records (up to 10 fields) in one table and I want to transfer/copy them to another:
strSql = "INSERT INTO tblDetailNakup " & _
"SELECT tblDetailNakupTemp.* " & _
"FROM tblDetailNakupTemp;"
docmd.runsql strSql
most of the time it works OK, but from time to time a couple of records are missing.
What could be the problem? Is there any way for somekind of a check, if all has been inserted otherwise the query is repeated?
TNX in advance,
Miha
Hi,
I am new to microsoft access. I am trying to develop a data base that will store data as well as return means and SEMs. I have multiple parameters entered into an access table. The fields are Group Number, MAP, AP, and KV and are stored in a table called "Source Table". I have a query to return the averages for each group, but I am having trouble making a query to return the SEM. the formula for SEM is
SEM = Standard Deviation / (Count ^ (1/2))
This should be easy because access will return Stdev and Count, but when I try and enter the formula into expression builder, all hell breaks loose. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,

Hi,
I am doing up a webpage which has a dropdown box with 13 choices(13 different department names eg. A, B, C..) to allow user to insert into database. However, instead of inserting just "department name", it insert "department name," into the database.
Eg. What i want to see in database is A but i get A, instead.
I have checked my SQL statement and there is no "," which should not have been there. Is there anywhere else i should be looking out for in order to correct this problem?
Thank you.
I have a very large database with record that are from 3 to 11 characters long. I would like to run a query to inset dashes at position 5 and 9 so a part number would look like this 0000-000-0000 or following the same convention but never dashes as the last character
this is what i currently have
UPDATE stihl SET [part number] = left([part number], 4)& "-" & mid ([part number], 5);
then run a second as follows
UPDATE stihl SET [part number] = left([part number], 8)& "-" & mid ([part number], 9);
the problem this adds dashes after numbers shorter than 11 and 2 dashes if on 4 long.
Any ideas thanks in advance
