I have to deal with string arrays that store text. I need info on copying, comparing, appending arrays. Also on passing arrays as parameters to subs or functions. Where I can get to this info quickly without having to browse through many screens.
In addition to this I have some questions:
I have to find the duplicates of values in an array. Here is the code that I use.
Code: Sub FindDuplicates() Dim I As Integer, J As Integer, IEND As Integer, text() As String ReDim text(IEND) For I = 1 To IEND - 1 For J = I + 1 To IEND If text(I) = text(J) Then text(J) = "" Next J Next I End Sub
It works but is not performing well. Are there more efficient ways of doing this?
and I'm trying to pull the max value of the number after the -e- for a given set of them. In this example, I'd want to return the number 70. I'm then going to use that to create the next ID and populate another field.
The IDs are not used as the primary key. And while the previous IDs used leading zeros inconsistently, new IDs will not have leading zeros.
Here's what I have so far, but it doesn't seem to pull the number after the -e- at all. I think this section here is the problem, even though the same logic works in a query:
Code: Public Function MaxArticleERef(hbID As Long) As Variant On Error GoTo err_handler Dim db As DAO.Database Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Dim strSql As String Dim maxERef As Variant
I am trying to create a query to find missing sequential numbers in a text field. I am using this specific field as a case number which is designated as two letters, the # sign, two digits indicating the year, a dash, and then a four digit number; For Example: AB#13-1234.
The reason for this query is to tell the user of this database that a specific case number has yet to be entered and needs to be. The case numbers are unique and will never be referenced more than once.
My table name is "MainDataTbl" and the field i'm trying to find the missing case numbers is titled "CaseNumber".
I have a command button on a continuous form(form 1) and I need this button to open another form(form 2) when I press on it. So far so good.
When I press the button, I need some VBA to open the form(form 2) , search for a particular table name based on the open form(form 1) current record and use that table name as the newly opened form (form 2) data source. I have ways to do most of those task but for one thing:
How do I make access search for a table name containing a particular string? Here's what I am working with:
Code: Private Sub Commande26_Click() On Error GoTo Err_Commande26_Click Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String Dim stDataSource As String
I've got a string variable with a value that could be typically
"ABCD|123|R"
The string needs to be split into its three parts, the pipe symbol being the separator. Then the middle numeric string must be converted back to a long.
I know i could do a loop which identifies each character in turn, but my question is:
Is there a VBA function that can pick out the position in the string of the "|" characters, so i dont need a loop ?
I am looking to find if a field contains a number and then build a case statement depending on which number is found. The field will contain data just like this:
Quote:
Repaired frequency response and grounding issues. Replaced 2 Hybrids, capacitors, and connectors. Tested MER/BER and operation to specs.
Here is my code that did not work:
Code: If Me.txt_work_comm1 Like "*Hybrid" Then 'Sets up auto priced based on number of hybrids entered '1 hybrid If Me.txt_work_comm1 Like "*1" Then strCriteria = "repair_item = 'Charter RF Amplifier Repair + 1 Hybrid' AND profile_types = 'Alpha'"
[Code]....
To Summarize: 1. I need to find if the word "Hybrid" or "Hybrids" is in the field 2. Then I need to know how many to determine a price
I have a form (Datasheet). I need to define some variable in form as string, which can work with any event. E.G in column "A"on event after update, in column "B" on event after update...
I will try to explain with a simple example : form (datasheet) columns: "A", "B"
on event after update in coulmn "A", I could have some like this: (variable what I need to define) = 3
on event after update in coulmn "B", I could have some like this: If (variable what I need to define) = 3 then msgbox "ok" end if
Now I try to work around the problem and use another column "c" to keep the value from after update A - but I know that, it's bad solution -Right?
I'm populating a combo box from a query. I'm running a DCount on 2 criteria. The user selects the criteria from 2 combo boxes. If the user types * into the combo box, I want to be able to loop through each combination from the combo box values. I need to get the list of values from the combo box and put it into a string array, however it throws a type mismatch if I did something like BRANCHES(x)=CStr(cboBranches(x)) 'cboBranches(x)=cboBranches.Value(x) So I tried to run the sql from vb but found out that I can't return a string value from that (vb sucks). So I'm back to trying to get the values from the combo box. Any help would be appreciated.
I'm trying to search a for string within a subform to find information stored on the mainform to which the particular subform belongs.
The problem is that the subform is generated from a query which uses a number from the main form to generate.
So the subform record is only generated when the correct mainform record associated with it is loaded.
Now to solve my problem I've made a new query that brings up ALL the results that could be generated by the main form and from that I can search to find my search term I'm after and read off the ID number to tie it back to the mainform.
But all of this is done manually, I want a way to do all this using VBA in a way that the user can't edit any records as they are doing it.
I'm new to Access but comfortable with Excel and VBA.I'm trying to transform a VBA-heavy form from Excel into an Access database, as multiple accessing is required, as well as data analysis. The situation is I have a form where users enter data (name, account number, date, etc). The account number is unique, and I have a table of approximately 14000 account numbers which contains the company name, address, and other details for each account number. I've set the account number as the primary ID on the accounts table.
What I would dearly love to be able to do is: when the account number is entered on the form, it is searched for (e.g. by the user clicking a button) from the accounts table. If it is located, the 7 fields in the relevant row are displayed in 7 textboxes on the form. I do not want to record the address, just display it on the form so the user can choose whether or not to use it.
So far, I have found GetRows, which seems to be able to convert the fields into a 2D array... this could be usable. But how can I do the first bit - find the correct row in the accounts table based on the account number entered into the textbox on the form? Is it possible to do this behind the scenes? In other words, Access finds the right row and displays each field in its textbox on the form, without producing a report form first.
I am trying to capture a newly arrived mail in outlook with respective subject line. The below code works for me on 2010 outlook but when new mail arrive in outlook 2013 ,Mrthod Items_ItemAdd do not get called.
Code:
Option Explicit Private WithEvents Items As Outlook.Items Private Sub Application_Startup() Dim olApp As Outlook.Application Dim objNS As Outlook.NameSpace Set olApp = Outlook.Application Set objNS = olApp.GetNamespace("MAPI") ' (1) default Inbox
I have a short text field where numbers such as "15.00", "2233.56", "-300.00" are stored. Now I want to convert the text field to numeric so that I have actually 15.00 or -300.00 stored as a double. I am going to do calculations on these fields. How can I achieve this conversion?
I have a column containing records of the timestamp of an event. I need to extract the date out of each of these records and put them in a separate table. The date and time of each record is contained within a bracket.
I have created a form to send emails with attachments. The attachment path is specified in an unbound field which I have called [ToAttach] Rather than typing in the path, I want to use the browse function. I have inserted a browse button and can browse for the required file using following, but can't figure out how to place the file name in the unbound field as a string.
Code: Dim f As Object Set f = Application.FileDialog(3) f.AllowMultiSelect = False f.Show
I'm trying to add a search function the searches with ever letter I add to the string in the search box. if the string is not in the recordset then vbred the textbox.
Here's my code:
Private Sub txtGroupNr_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer) Set RstRecSet = Nothing Set db = CurrentDb On Error Resume Next If IsNull(txtGroupNr) Or txtGroupNr = "" Then ' MsgBox "Please enter a Group Number to use as the search criteria", _
I'm currently in the process of moving from Excel to Access and am setting up a user table with 5 Fields (Full Name, First, MI, Last, Alias). I would like to only transfer the Full name and have the other field be calculated fields, so they automatically fill in. I was able to get the "Last" field to work, but the others are being tricky. Especially the "Alias" field which would need to take the first letter of the first name, MI letter and the entire last name, like (JPDoe).
The current format of my "Full Name" field looks like, (Doe, John P.) without the brackets of course. I'm new to Access, so I was trying to use the Expression Builder to do all of it, unless there is an easier way?
I am provided a spreadsheet that contains multiple rows of similar data; each row/record represents a different stage in the process of financial transactions (requisition, purchase order, & voucher payment). Each financial transaction has these three records, with the amounts in one of three columns (pre-encumbrance, encumbrance, and expense), depending on the process.
What I am really after is the fuller, more detailed description that is apparently only available for the two records I don't want to import into the database (which is tracking only expenses and not the other two stages of the process). There is apparently no way to cross-reference these multiple rows due to the way the original database was designed (and we apparently have no control over this).
After importing the spreadsheet into Access, I would like to match the partial text string (truncated description) to the full description in another record, and update the record with the truncated description to the full description. To make mattes more complicated, I will also have to match values in the "pre-enc" or "enc" field with the "exp" field across these three records to make sure the correct descriptions are being matched because the truncated description will match multiple distinct records with the longer description.
I am simply trying to find text on a Web Browser Control htm page.
Using MS Access 2003, I have a form that includes the activeX Web Browser Control. On load of the form I initialize the web like below:
Code: Dim strURL As String strURL = "http://www.justice.gov/eoir/profcond/chart.htm" Me.WebBrowser0.Navigate strURL Me.WebBrowser0.Silent = True
The page loads fine.
Now, also, on my form is an unbound text box I call: [txtFind] and a command button I call [cmdFind]. I want [cmdFind] to find the first occurrence of the value in [txtFind]. My code below doesn't do anything when I click the [cmdFind] button.
Code: Public oRange As Object Public myfindFirst As Boolean Public intTextLength As Long Private Sub cmdFind_Click() Dim sSearch As String Dim strText As String
I had the need every so often to quickly find all instances of any (particular) word within the database, without going to the bother of thinking about where that word/subject might be in the data base, I designed a report which does the job nicely. It uses a search form/control, searches and finds all instances of the word (or words) I have asked it to find, then does a report showing all instances of whatever RTF memo fields that contain the word(s).It has to be RTF memo field because (if I wish) it goes straight into the book text I'm writing, and also it searches the book's RTF memo field. . The trouble is, at present, I then have to manually "eye scan" the resulting report to find the occurrences of the "key searched for" word, nestling/hidden somewhere within sometimes quite large chunks of text. I would love to have the report show the found "key word(s)" highlighted in (say) light blue or whatever colour, so that I can quickly & easily lock on to it visually.
I enter the word I want Access to find, into a form called "formfindword" in a text box called Text0. I click on a command box on this form, to open up the report called "Querywhatsandhowschooseword" based on a query of the same name. The query's "what" field (from the main database) has the criteria
= Like "*" and [forms]![Formfindword]![Text0] & "*"
The query's "how" field criteria (in the "or" line of the query design) is also
= Like "*" & [forms]![Formfindword]![Text0] & "*"
I have tried to use the Conditional Format facility in Report Layout view, without any luck.I think therefore that I will need some VBA code (which is totally foreign to me, unfortunately) to make this simple concept a reality.
I am 2 years into my database. I am trying to find and open a folder based on a text box. The problem is folder could be in many sub folders which is hold on our J: drive.
To further complicate, the folder i am searching may not be exactly as the text box states.
EG. Text box could say 123456 however the folder could be called M123456 etc.
How do i locate a folder or subfolder and open it based on part of a text box...
