Modules & VBA :: Conversion Table And Update Query
Dec 4, 2014
I am building an access database to manage a data conversion from multiple legacy systems (62) to a new non access database, and plan on making my Conversion Database reusable and functionally simpler.All data is imported to one common Table structure, with the source system identified against each record.In my legacy systems values are not coded the same ie
Title: Mr Miss Ms Mrs Record Type: Active, Inactive
System A: 1, 2, 3, 4 a , i
System B: a, b, c, d 1 , 2
System C: x, y, z, w ACT, ,INA
This applies to sooo many fields.I want to avoid having a mapping table for each field as I will quickly have an unmanageable number of mapping tables, and complex relationships in Queries..I would like to get to the point where I could have a single value mapping table something as follows
System, Field, Old Value, New Value
System A, title, 1 Mr
System A, title, 2 Miss
System A, title, 3 Ms
System A, title, 4 Mrs
System B, title, a Mr
System B, title, b Miss
System B, title, c Ms
System B, title, d Mrs
And some how call this in VB to go through all fields and records in a table if Old Value is found for a specific "System" and "Field" Change to new value, if noting found on Mapping table keep existing data.

Here's my Goal: To open a saved query that has a parameter, setting that parameter via a VBA sub.
Here's my Problem: I was getting various errors, but after debugging my program a bit, it comes down to a "Data Type Conversion Error"
Here's my Code:
Set db = CurrentDb
Set qd = db.QueryDefs("qryMY_DATA")
qd.Parameters(0) = Me.txt_ReferenceID
Set rs = qd.OpenRecordset("qryMY_DATA", dbDynaset)
Code:
'*** Database Variables
Dim db As DAO.Database, rs As DAO.Recordset, gq As DAO.QueryDef, prm As DAO.Recordset
I've been all over the forums and tried several different approaches, all to no avail. The Query runs fine in the QDT, but kicks back an error when I try to run it from my sub.

I've set a database which has a table in which there are 2 fields "Account" and "Total Accounts". I want to have the amount of total summation of accounts in "Total Accounts" field of each record, which is the result of summation of "Account" values in all previous records till the current one. In order to do this purpose, I copied the value of "Amount" field of each record into "Total Accounts" field of the same record, at first. Then, I tried to add the amount of "Total Accounts" field of every record with just the amount of "Total Accounts" of previous one to earn the actual total amount of that record. I found that I need a VBA loop to do this query for all records (except first record) and so I code it as below, but it has the Run-time error '424' : Object required and it seems that I am in a mistake in definition of strSQL variable:
Code:
Private Sub doDataSegm_Click()
Dim dbs As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim strSQL As String
Set dbs = CurrentDb()
Set rs = dbs.OpenRecordset("Table1", dbOpenTable)
[Code] .....

I have a table 'table1' which has various field including an ID field and a yes/no field. I then have a form based on a query originally derived from data in the original table. The form provides a list with some ID's with a yes and some with a no.
I'm trying to write a button code to convert all the no's into yes' for those ID's picked out by the query.
I've searched lots of sites and get that I need to set recordsets for both table1 and the forms' query but all my efforts crash or give an error.
I am looking for the right way to say .." for each ID in form set the yes/no field corresponding to the same ID in table1 to yes"
I'd attach my version ....

I have a text column of alpha-numeric fields and some start P123456, P111111, P222222 etc. I want to remove the P from these fields.
I thought the following update query would do this but gives a type conversion error, regardless if the new column to copy them to is type text or number. Can someone help explain what is wrong.
UPDATE 2006 SET D2 = CLng(RIGHT(D1,LEN(D1-1)))
WHERE LEFT(D1,1)="P";
Thanks,
Andy

I have some vba that dump an access table into a recordset and then into an excel spreadsheet. When the data is exported Columns I:Q (which are numbers) appear as text (with the green triangle in the upper left corner). I have a pivot table that refreshed however it can't do anything with text.
I've tried just to change the cells format and it doesn't work. The only way I've been able to change it to a number is to click on the green triangle and select "Convert to Number" How can I do this via VBA? The # of rows will change but the columns will always stay the same.

Is there any way of converting MS Access Forms(And module behind) to Visual Studio.Net?
I have a pretty comprehensive MS Access DB that has several complex forms. I want to redo this DB App in Visual Studio.Net but don't want to recreate the forms from scratch if there is any way of converting/importing or any shortcuts/tricks to accomplish this.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Mitch
Side note: Anyone ever added credit card billing capabilities to their db? Where to start? (I know.... Post in another thread....)

I have a text box control in a form that is bound to a table field. The field is of numeric format that stores time duration in minutes. I would like to apply sort of transparent / automated conversion. It would work so follows:
- when someone read records, the text box would convert a integer number stored in the filed into text so that the text box would show the time duration in this form "HH:MM"
- when someone clicks on the text box to change the value, one would input the value in this form again "HH:MM" but the text would be converted to minutes and then stored in the database.

I have created a code below to test whether I can run a query and retrieve a data from an SQL server table. And so far I can return the result using a messagebox. but somehow I just don't know how to use this connection to update the table inside this access file. Basically I want to use this as a front end file. then when the form is open it will automatically update the table inside this access file and load the data to the combo box as a list.
Code:
Option Compare Database
Sub LocalServerConn_Test()
Set conn = New adodb.Connection
Set rst = New adodb.Recordset
[code]....

MS Access 2013: I have two database tables as below:
tbl1_MainDB --- It has a field named as "City" where I get huge data for some city names. Sometimes This field may have some unknown/new names which are not listed in our 2nd table ("tbl2_RefrDB")
tbl2_RefrDB --- It's a reference table which has raw names for cities, and then standard names of their city and state in another fields.
Target --- I want to create a VBA prorgram (Sql query) which can look from tbl1_MainDB.[City] to tbl2_RefrDB.[Raw_City] field, and if found then pick the "Standard_State" and "Standard_City" record values from there, and update into the 1st table "tbl1_MainDB".
...if not found in "tbl2_RefrDB" table, then user can be informed & ask for updating the new/unmatched city record as a new record in this table.
Attached sample database for more details.

I'm trying to use VBA to update a new column in a table with info I already have in another table.The table I want to update is an inventory details table, it has around 25,000 records. I added a column called "UnitCost", of course the column is empty for all 25,000 records so I would like to fill it easily using DoCmd.RunSQL "UPDATE" feature.
I use that through-out the program however I'm unable to connect the dots for this one.What it needs to do is update "UnitCost" in "InventoryDetails" from "Products" where "InventoryDetails.ProductNumber" = "Products.ProductNumber"
The "Products" table has all the different unit cost, it just need to be placed in the "InventoryDetails" table for every record. Of course product1 needs products1 unit cost and product2 needs products2 unit cost, etc.

I have a table that has banking information in it (downloaded from the internet). I have a category field (lookup field) that I have to update manually so, for example, every time the electric bill is paid I have to click it and change the category to "electricity".
I want to set up a table with phrases for access to search for and a category to change to. For example if the banking table has "VIS ELECTRICITY 20812/773474868" and my search criteria table says anything with the word "electricity" should have category of "electricity", then I want Access to update the banking table based on that.
There will be several items in the search criteria table so Access will have to read through all of them to find the correct one. Is this possible?

In previous versions of access when importing data from text files a conversion error table was created.
In access 2003 this facility no longer appears. It tells me there are import errors, imports the acceptable records but then no errors table.
Am I being stupid, have I got something turned off. Many thanks for any support anyone can provide.

We receive hundreds of items at the time capturing the item barcode and the userID. I want to improve the process capturing the UserID once and updated the table with this entry on all empty records on the table. I have created the following script but I doesn't work.
Private Sub Command7_Click()
Dim strSQL As String
Dim strUser As String
strUser = InputBox("Scan your badge")
strSQL = "UPDATE " & tblGER_ReceivingLog & " SET " & tblGER_ReceivingLog & _
"." & UserID & "='" & strUser & "' WHERE ([" & tblGER_ReceivingLog & "]. & UserID & is null);"
DoCmd.RunSQL strSQL

My database generates forms with a unique number displayed as a barcode. The paper forms are completed by employees and then scanned into a folder on the network in .TIFF format. I have seen other databases that can somehow pick up files like this and update the forms status in the database (i.e., Completed), assign a completion date and create a link to the file (a PDF actually).
I would really like my database to be able to do this but dont even know where to start. How do I get the file names for the .TIFF files to match the barcodes during the scanning process? How do I get Access to check a Completed field for each document in the folder? How do I get Access to put a link to the file in a field in the table?

I have inherited an old database with a new field to add some new invoice numbers and increment the number to each recordset by + 1. Starting at 001. I have formatted the field to a Number Field and formatted it to 000"/2015". I now need to populate over 2000 records with the sequential numbers for each record.
I have created the following code as my attempt. Of course it doesn't work!
Code:
Sub AddNumbertoRecords()
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Dim counter As Long
counter = 1
Set db = CurrentDb()

So I have this code in an afterupdate event in an unbound text box to update the value of a table if the textbox is updated:
Code:
Private Sub txtCustRepID_AfterUpdate()
'Go to Calls table and find original value for CustRepID
'Fin the Call ID first
Dim CallIDVar As Long
Dim ContactIDVar As Long
Dim CustRepIDOr As String
CallIDVar = Forms![Contacts]![Call Listing Subform].Form![CallID]
[code]...
This code works well when entering numbers in the text box but it returns error 3061; "Too few parameters. Expected 1" when along with the numbers there is a letter in the textbox.The error happens in this part of the code:
Code:
'Accept change and add new value to table
CurrentDb.Execute _
"UPDATE Calls " & _
"SET CustRepID = " & CustRepIDNew & " " & _
"WHERE CallID = " & CallIDVar, dbFailOnError
The underlying table has text as type of data for this field.

I have an access database that is used to store records of requests for for items. Example, ID, WhoRequested, CustomerName, Date, address, phone, WhatRequested, amt. I take this data and export it to an excel spreadsheet and send to another area for processing.
I then get the sheet back with the orderdate, ordernumber, and shippingnumber. I need to update the original table with this new information. it is not bad when there is only a few, but Ihave had 100 or so lately, and updating each record manually is time consuming.

I need to import an excel spreadsheet into an existing Access 2003 table. Due to regulations, the spreadsheet cannot be linked.
When I try to import the spreadsheet, I receive a 'Type Conversion Failure' associated with a 'Product ID' field. In the Excel file, this column is populated with two types of values-- either a 9 digit number, or a 9 digit alpha numeric value. The 9 digit numbers import correctly, but the alpha numeric values fail.
Field names/layout in the excel spreadsheet are identical to the Access table, and the field type in the existing Access table is set to 'text.' There is no set Format, or Input Mask.
What I could change with the existing table to make this import work? I'd like to avoid importing a new table, as this would force me to recreate a number of relationships after each import.

I have an unbound form in which a user enters data relating to a credit dispute, and when they hit the Save button I have a sub that is intended to insert that data into a table. This is a bit out of my comfort zone, so I found some code from another forum and adjusted it to my needs. However, I'm getting errors.
The table name is tbl_complaints. The fields from the form are:
txtAcctNumber
txtClient
txtEoscarType
txtEoscarControl
cboMethodReceipt
....
My code is below.
Private Sub cmdSave_Click()
Dim StrSql As String
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
StrSql = "INSERT INTO tbl_complaints " _
& "(ACCT_NUMBER, CLIENT_NAME, EOSCAR_TYPE, EOSCAR_CONTROL_NUMBER, METHOD_OF_RECEIPT,
[Code] ....
The error I get is error number 3075, and it says I'm missing an operator in the section that references cboResponseType, but I can't seem to figure out what I'm missing. My head is spinning from staring at these parentheses and apostrophes for so long.

I have 2 tables;
Compression and Compression_Import.
Table Compression is currently used to enter the load applied to the sample followed by a query that calculates the 'compression strength' using the entered load and the surface of the sample.
Table: Compression
.Labnr .,.... Load
13-142
13-142
13-142
13-142
13-142
13-142
What i would like to do is to import both the 'load' and 'compression strenght' from the machine.So i have managed to do an export on the machine (to Excel) and then made an import function which imports the content of the Excel file and puts it in a table called Compression_Import.
Table: Compression_Import
.Labnr .,.... Load........Compression strength
13-142.....11372..................64.3
13-142.....11376..................64.9
13-142.....11379..................65.3
13-142.....11343..................61.3
13-142.....11372..................64.3
13-142.....11371..................64.3
What i'd like to do is to update Compression.load with the value of Compression_import.load.I have tried several things like
Code:
UPDATE Compression_import INNER JOIN Compression ON Compression_Import.Labnr = Compression.labnr SET Compression.load = Compression_Import.[load];
But all it only seems to get the value of the last labnr from Compression Import and updates everything with it.
Result:
13-142.....11371
13-142.....11371
13-142.....11371
13-142.....11371
13-142.....11371
13-142.....11371

I am new to VBA and I'm trying to write a query that will update a table with dates based on user input. For example a user will run data each Monday and that date will be day01. The date table has 28 days total and I need each day row to update with the next date i.e. day01 is 12/30, day02 is 12/31, day03 is 1/01 etc..I am having issues just running the update the query. I get a too few parameters error message on the strsql statement. There are only two columns in the table, order_day(date column) and date_value(text). I want to update order_day. I also need creating a loop so it knows to go back and add days to the other values.
Here is what I have:
Code:
Sub Update_Dates()
Dim rs As Recordset
Dim db As Database
Dim lmsg As String
Dim transactiondate As Date
Dim strsql As String
[Code] ....
