I know that a public constant is available to all subs and modules. I also know that you can only declare these in a module, you can't for example declare these in the form.
So how what is the best way of declaring them?
At the moment I just have a module that has nothing else except for the 3-4 constants that I use throughout all my forms. Is that ok?
In MS Access form, how can I create my own message if the user enter a value that not match with the data type of a field in underlying table? Thanks a lot!
I copied some VBA from one database to another. I didn't change anything and I am able to run it fine in the first database. But in the DB I pasted it to, I am received a Compile Error message with the XlApp As Excel.Application area highlighted.
Function OpenAutoCount() Dim xlApp As Excel.Application Dim xlWB As Excel.Workbook
I have a table with a field with names set to text data type and i want to change it to number data type but when i do it in design view the data get lost. I want to know if there is a way to convert the data in the field as number type and keep the data in the field.
The error I'm getting is "data type mismatch in criteria expression".
Private Sub BtnAddBooking_Click() Dim CustomerID As String Dim StaffID As String Dim intPos As Integer Dim strSQL As String Dim strSQL2 As String Dim BathValue As Integer Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Dim RemainingBookingExists As String Dim RemainingBaths As Integer Dim RemainingBathsExists As String
I have a variable (dtDueDate as Date) showing as 6/28/2013. I want to append a time value to it (dtMaxTime as Date) which is 5:00 PM so dtDueDate reads 6/28/2013 05:00:00 PM. I have been going in circles trying to figure this out. My goal is to append this date to a table field which has a datetime (General Date).
The DolphinBatchNo has number data type but the following sql statement doesn't capture the ight records. it doesn't check id dolphinBatchNo is blank.
Code: strsql="select * from `MasterTBL` where PolicyNumber>=" & TxtFPolNo & " and PolicyNumber<=" & TxtLPolNo & " and PolicyStatus='Live' and DolphinBatchNo is null order by PolicyNumber"
SELECT SubscheduleID, EventID, WeekOrder, DayID, StartTime, EndTime, Priority, CanJoin, PatientTitle, PatientNickname, IncludesPatient, IncludesAftercare, Letter1 FROM [qryScheduleCombinedDetails] WHERE (SubscheduleID = 1 AND IncludesPatient = -1 AND DuringAftercare <> "AC only" AND (WeekOrder = "All" OR WeekOrder = 3 OR (WeekOrder = 1 AND Letter1 = "XYZ")) AND DayID = 2 AND StartTime <= #8:00:00 AM# AND EndTime >= #8:30:00 AM#);
When I try to run it, I get a "data type mismatch" error. When I put the same code into a query, I get the same error. However, it will run if I delete either condition from within the (WeekOrder = 1 AND Letter1 = "XYZ") pairing. I can't figure why it can run with either of those, but not both together.
WeekOrder is defined as String. Letter1 is calculated as Cstr(Nz(IIf(Letter,"XYZ","ABC"))) within [qryScheduleCombinedDetails], because I wanted to make sure that it would be recognized as a string.
When I try to open a recordset based on this sql, it gives me the runtime error - which is odd since I don't have any criteria in the statement.
I think the problem may be that vba is somehow adding a line break between "fullvals" and "18", but I don't know why it would do so and it doesn't always (only if the string is long).
I am trying to filter a recordset with a variable q. The field in the table associated with the record set is of data type Date/time. I assigned data types String and Date to q but both cases generates the error message " Data type mismatched in expression".
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 have a Row source string which I use quite often. Currently, I declare it in each procedure and copy and paste it in. The problem is when it needs changing, I need to change it in a billion places.
can I declare the string as public and set it as public too so that I can just make a reference to it rather than copy and paste entire slabs of code into each event??
I'm attempting to build an import module so that my users can take data from different walks of life and import it into my tables. I'm doing this by setting up a module and allowing the user to specify which column data will come from when importing data. So lets say I have a field that is CustomerID in my table and user one pulls data from 1 place and in his excel or csv file, customerid is in field 1. Another user does the same thing and its in field 2.
How can i make some form of a loop that when I'm attempting to update data, i pull the correct column?
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM tblImportTable" Set rst = db.OpenRecordset(strSQL, dbOpenDynaset, dbSeeChanges) With rst Do While .EOF = False If IsNull(DLookup("DefaultValue", "dbo_tblImportTemplateDetails", "Template_ID=" & Forms!frmImport!TemplateName & " AND FieldName='CustomerID'")) Then
I am using Brinkster to do some ASP/MS ACCESS programming.
I need to add a field which increments automatically with every insert into the table. I tried the following statement: ALTER TABLE Jobs ADD jobid AutoNumber(4)
I have a form and I want show a message on the form when the it is locked as another user is editing the data in a particular record.
I know the record selectors show the records lock status but it a very tiny symbol which will mean nothing to the users of the database and anyway I don't want record selector bar on the form. How I would do this???
i want to get a msgbox to let the user enter the data in specific text boxes so they can't let it empty if not empty then do..this is my code
If Me.Client_Name.Value = "" Then MSG = MsgBox("You Should Enter The Client Name") ElseIf Me.Username.Value = "" Then MSG = MsgBox("You Should Enter The UserName") ElseIf Me.Address.Value = "" Then MSG = MsgBox("You Should Enter The Address")
[code]....
the msgboxes that tell the user this textbox is empty is not appearing what's wrong with my code
I have a bound combo box that has a query as a row source, The query has 3 fields called from tblMasterItems, The ItemID , ItemDesc and ItemSupplier(related to the PK of tblSupplier).
Column Count = 3 Column Width = 0";1";0"
If I do not put a criteria under ItemSupplier, the combo box behaves just fine. The problem happens when I set the criteria under ItemSupplier, the criteria being the supplier ID, the combo box no longer expands and searches as you type, but the items in the combo box have been filtered and are there.
Summary:
When the row source qry ItemSupplier Field does not have a criteria, cbo works just fine. When the row source qry ItemSupplier has a criteria, cbo no longer expands and searches as you type, but has the filtered data showing if you hit the expand button (that arrow pointing down in the cbo)
Bottom line I'm in bit of a pickle, work has moved forward the migration of Office97/NT4 to Office2003/XP by 2 months (clever lot) and was hoping not have to cram for this question until at least 3-5 weeks.
I'm looking for pointers/suggestions because I now have to test in Access2003 Runtime on MONDAY!!!!
What it is, is:
I have a query which is a list of items that need to be worked out of 65,000. Of that 65,000, 20,000 end up in the query (Actually do need looking at after an Automated process) (it's adapting the query/process I think I need)
Query:
EntID - UniqueID for a household Applicant1 - Number lookup value for Applicant 1 Applicant2 - Number lookup value for Applicant 2 Qualifies - 1 = Yes, 2 = No, Null = Not worked.
That's basic building block of the Query which is Drives the main Form.
What I would like is a scenario similar to this:
Person A opens record 1
Person B opens record 2
Person C opens record 3
Person C finishes record 3
Person B finishes record 2
Person C opens record 4
Person B opens record 5 (he/she took a little break)
Now that's the way I would like it to work, but there will be other factors and this is where I'm all ears for anyone who is used to this type of system.
The problem I can't figure out is that the Main Form has several subforms, but none of the data is to be edited, it is there for visual purposes only. The users will be creating records via the Main Form through code, but not directly into any tables/queries with which I can use conventional record locking, that I can see.
My thoughts are that Person A calls up a record based on Min EntID and somehow locks it so the Person B looks for Min EntID Where not locked.
Please, please can someone point me in the direction of how to do it and more importantly the correct order of events? I have tried doing the Min EntID and locking the record, but while Person A is running the Min Query, Person B is running it also so they end up with the same record as B has the record on screen while A is locking it.
Also, In the real world Person B might open record 2 and think, nah I can't be bothered. I would like a proffessional opnion on whether C opens record 2 or should B be made to deal with it.
I think not given the huge time constrants landed square on my lap, I would get there with smaller questions, but I've spent the last 10hrs writing a Function, to get it ready for the testing lab, where the owner has changed the requirements 7 times and my head isn't working.
All or some help given will be GREATLY received. Any further information needed, just ask.
I have a field in a table that is comprised of mostly numerical data but some records are text.
I want to convert this field to numerical only and make a new field to put the textual data in.
However converting the field will delete the textual data. What is the easiest way to convert the field but save the textual data AND append the textual data to the SAME record that they were in originally in the new field?
