Modules & VBA :: Cannot Rename A Report
Dec 17, 2013
I want to rename a report by clicking a command button on a form. I have this simple code in the click event:
Dim strReportNameNew As String
Dim strReportNameOld As String
strReportNameNew = txtChangeTo.Text
strReportNameOld = txtChooseReport.Text
DoCmd.Rename strReportNameNew, acReport, strReportNameOld
The code fails with this error message:
Microsoft Visual Basic
Run-time error '29068'
Household Labels cannot complete this operation. You must stop the code and try again.
I am able to rename the report manually.I have searched but been unable to find out what is causing this error.

I have a report (FI_ID) based in a query with the same name.
When i export this report to my desktop i need to manualy rename the filename.
What i need is a way to automatic rename my report to my text field value, called "Seq_Number" (it's a automatic number).At the end i will have 101.pdf, 102.pdf, 103.pdf in my desktop.

I'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?!

This 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
[code]...

strPassword)
For lngCount = 1 To objWorkbook.Worksheets.Count

I am still trying to copy an Excel file from a parent folder to a sub-folder, that this code creates, and name the copied file with the name used to name the sub-folder, using the name entered in a control field (named 'TheDirName) of an Access 2007 form. Here is my VBA, which names the copied file "TheDirName.xlsx.:
Private Sub MakeDir_Click()
Dim appExcel As Excel.Application
Dim lngLastDataRow As Long
Dim Folder_Path As String
'Create path for customer folder & files
[code]....

I have the following piece of code for importing the .csv files from a selected folder and then renaming them into 'imported & filename' if succesful and 'failed & filename' if import failes for whatever reason (bad formating, etc.).
The problem is that the first time it encounters a 'bad' file after another, instead of going again to the Error handler, the command
Code:
DoCmd.TransferText acImportDelim, , "Activitate", filename, True
gives me the default MS Access error, namely 2391. I would like it to go the the Error_handler again ang follow the course of actions and rename the files into 'failed' and 'imported'.
Here's the code:
Sub ImportActivitate()
Dim strFile As String 'Filename's
Dim strFileList() As String ' File Array
Dim intFile As Integer 'Number of files
Dim filename As String, sFullName As String, sFilename As String
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
[code]....
Also, how can I make the routine stop cycling through the files after I renamed them all?

I have only started using acces recently. When working I have used strange names for queries forms and tables. I would like to "clean" the file and rename some items. I have found acces not to rename linked parts automatically. Is this possible? Thank you.

Hi guys,
I know this is pretty basic stuff but I MS Access is not my strong point.
I am looking to simply rename a table in MS Access 2003 using SQL, can anyone please help ?
There are no reports or queries attached to it.
Am I right in saying RENAME is not a reserved word in MS Access ?
Thanks.

Hi:
MS Access
In query:
I write
ALTER TABLE table_name
RENAME COLUMN old_name to new_name;
But, it doesn't work, because "Rename" is NOT avaliable.
How can I fix that?
Thanks.

I have a report which programmatically sets the value of some labels based on its own internal logic for each line of the detail section of a report. This all works fine and dandy, using the Detail_format event, and accessing detail.controls.item(x).caption.
HOWEVER, when I then embed the report as a subreport (which I need to do), I goes wrong. Here, I get the values of the last row of the detail repeated in every previous one. I'm suspecting because the parent report has its own 'detail' (I've tried giving the subreport its own distinct detail name).

On 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?
Thanks,
Attila

Hi~
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

I'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.
Steve

Hello, 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 made the novice mistake of originally naming a field street #, so I changed it. I went to every place I thought it might affect and still it will not let me access my forms. Is there anyway to find all of the locations it might be and remove it? I am using Access 2010

Hopefully 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

Is 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!

This is complex, but here goes.
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!
