May 26, 2006I am building a database for my job. I am trying to find a way that I can mail merge an Image that store in Access to a Word document. I tried doing it by creating a field in Access for the picture and its field type was set to OLE Object and I placed the merge field in its appropriate area in Word. When I go to merge it, its comes up with a message that says "Long Integer or Binary Number". If anyone has an idea as to how I can make this happen....please let me know, your help would be greatly appreciated.

Problem With Access Merging Into Word
Jun 20, 2007Hello All,
I need some assistance.
First a little background on the database:
The back end is in AQL the front end is in Access.
The main form is called the "Register", here they enter claim information and if they need to create a printed loss they click on a button called "Loss Notice" This brings up another form which is filtered based on the claim number in the Register. Here they fill in additional information. On this form they have the option to print the Loss Notices by clicking on a button that Opens up Microsoft Word and all the fields are mapped to the Word Template where they need to be.
On my computer when I set this up it works great. I test it all the time and works perfectly.
However when the users try to do this from their computer they are getting a pop up box asking for the claim number. The Loss form is filtered and should only pull that claim number.
Why are they getting this pop up box and I am not?
If you need any additional information I will try and give that to you.
Thanks for trying to help!

Merging Word Document With Access Query
Feb 7, 2006Apologies ... but I am quite new to Access. My database contains about 1000 peoples' addresses.
The problem I have is that I need to merge, say, 20 of these addresses into a word document. In the word document I can select records using the "Surname" field but it will not give me the option to select more than 6.
I am sure there must be a way that I can select more than 6: I have tried separating the surnames with a "," or "or" but nothing seems to work!
Help, please!
Thank you,
Emma

Word :: Sizing MS Word Table To Same Size As Recordset
Aug 14, 2014My 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.
Help With Merging
Feb 5, 2007My network was using Access 2000 and Word 2000. We recently upgraded to Access 2002 and Word 2002, but now none of my merge forms are working. I don't get any error messages, and the merge function does open Word, but all I get is the original source document and not the actual merge information. I checked my VB references and nothing is glaringly missing. What's the deal?

Aug 24, 2007Hi, I'm very new to access so sorry if this request seems a bit stupid.
I'm trying to get one csv file for a database of cars so I can upload it to my open-realty account.
In one table is the car ID and there are fields like Price, Extras, Mileage etc associated to that ID. (this is how I want everything to stay) I would like additional fields like Photo 1, photo 2, photo 3....photo 25 related to each car.
In the second table there are photos of the cars but each photo has its own unique ID but a field that relates to the ID of the car it is associated to.
How do I merge the two tables into one simpler version?
I've attached screen shots of the two tables.
Thanks for any help.
Merging Databases
Oct 25, 2007Hello-
We are using an Access database for off-site data entry. We therefore have one master database we keep in the office and then a "template" version -which is identical to the master version except no records - we bring to each site, do the data entry and then merge that data back into the Master database.
Can anyone help suggest ways to make the data merging process more efficient. The database has approx 12 tables, so I dont' want to create an append query for each one every time. Is there a way to just "merge" two identical databases??
THANKS
Merging 3 Records
Feb 15, 2008I am trying to import some data (job details for a machine shop), that is being exported from a CNC program.
The export has all the information we need, in a delimited format, but it spreads this over several lines. I also contains lots of junk we don't need.
Access imports this, but those lines then form an individual record in a tempory table.
I missunderstood what the 'UNION' query was, and whilst this has created nicely organised data, with just the stuff we need, it gives it over 3 individual records.
I either need to combine the 3 records from the output of the UNION query into a single record, or (and I suspect this is the case, as the UNION query doesn't actually do anything if I think about it), find a way of combining different fields from the temp import table into a single record in the query.
I've done a fair amount of searching on 'merging records', but can't seem to find a similar problem. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Jan 27, 2005Hello
I need to merge a set of Access tables. I am creating a database which will hold a large amount of records (upto 250 000 in one table). I am importing the data from an excel spreadsheet. As each spreadsheet is limited to 65000 records I had to save the file in 4 different spreadheets. However in Access I need all these files saved in one table. Can anyone please help me?

Jun 14, 2006Hello first post here, I need some help!Sorry not sure if this should go under queries or tables.Anyway I'm working with quite a large access db (64mb).I want to merge data from several tables into one table.Its a supermarket db (not a real one). Its got a customer and product tableIts also got a table called agg_c_special_sales_fact_1997with the fields customer_id and product_id this shows what customers bought what product.I want to merge the data from customer, product and agg_c_special_sales_fact_1997 into one big table. I want the merge to be permanent so I can see the which customer (and all their details) bought which product (all details) in one big table. I ve been trying to do this all day (im quite new to SQL) I copied the data in agg_c_special_sales_fact_1997 into a new table "new_sales_fact". I added a row called brand_name to that I want to copy from the product tableSo far I ve come up with this:SELECT product.brand_name INTO new_sales_fact FROM product, agg_c_special_sales_fact_1997WHERE product.product_id = agg_c_special_sales_fact_1997.product.id;unfortuantely access asks me enter a parameter value when I run the query.Could this becuase agg_c_special_sales_fact_1997 is huge, its got 86,000+records?Can anyone help? I'd be most greatful this has been driving me insane all day!!thanks in advance! P.S the database is the test database that comes with Mondrian......P.P.S I know its not good practice to have all data in one big table but for the purposes of what im doing it will simplfy things a lot!

I'm not really an Access programmer, but I maintain a couple of databases for my own use (music collection etc.). I hope no-one minds me posting here :)
I've made a bit of a mistake. I had two copies of a database on different machines, and I entered new data into both of them.
Is there any way of merging two tables, discarding any records which are identical?
Many thanks in advance for any responses!

Merging Tables?
Nov 14, 2007Hi all :) I have 22 tables in my Access database, which is my catalogue data. I have it set up on dreamweaver. Now tho, i need a search engine going thro it, i have a script in access/dreamweaver that works. Only thing is, that the script only works thro one table. Now, is there some way to merge tables into one? Not just copy and paste, but all have the same specific name that i maybe able to link? (ie Name, description, code) Any ideas? A tutorial link would be great if anyone has come across a similar thing, thx!

Aug 25, 2005I have frequented this board on several occasions, and have used it extensively to help me on my project. But I am at a situation that I cannot seem to find a proper solution for, and feel like I need to solicit some input from more experienced people.
Problem: What I want to do is create a form utilizing two queries that will not only display the shoes and comments, but as I tab from record to record (each record a different shoe), the form will also display the total minutes for the shoe. (frmShoes in the database shows what I ultimately want)
Background: I am creating a database to track my exercise routine and jogging times, along with other variables. I have three tables (I deleted all the other extraneous garbage to alleviate any potential for confusion):
tblRunSession
Run Session ID pk
Shoes ID
-one-to-many w/tblLaps-
-one-to-one w/tblShoes-
tblLaps
Laps ID pk
Lap Number
Lap Time
Run Session ID fk
tblShoes
Shoe ID pk
Shoe Name
Comments
I want to use a form built off tblRunSession to enter a new day of running. On the form I would enter multiple laps, and minutes each lap was completed, along with the shoes (only one pair used per day) I wore that day. I accomplished the input utilizing tblLaps as a subform to tblRunSession.
I tried creating two queries: one (Query 1) from tblshoes, and the other (Query 2) from tblRunSession and tblLaps. I summed the individual lap times in Query 2 for each shoe. But when I try to create a third query based on Queries 1 and 2, it gets all messed up and confusing. I tried to use dlookup, but I quickly found that was beyond my knowledge level. I think some of the problem I’m experiencing (besides my limited brain capacity) is the fact that I am trying to use three tables to pull data from, and trying to make it all mesh. I’m sure it can be done, but I’m at a loss.
I attached what I have been working on in case anyone wants to look at it and set me straight. Thanks in advance for any suggestions or ideas anyone has to offer.

Merging Two Fields In SQL
Apr 9, 2007Hi, this is really puzzleing me!
What i want to do is take a field from one table and a field from another and join them together to make a single field.
I know this wouldnt work in practice without selection statements etc so only one field is selected, but if you could just help me on this code i would be greatful!
For example, assuming that the tables tblMyDatatable, and tblOtherData consists only of one record with each containing a letter of "y" then:
SELECT [TheData FROM tblMyDatatable] & OtherData AS ThisQuery
FROM tblOtherData;
Should produce the following:
ThisQuery
yy
It dosent! Can anybody help?
