The logic I'm trying to create is the following: If the number of Fuel Types is greater than two, then the field will have the value 'MPS.' Otherwise, the field will just have the regular fuel type value. It's referencing this fuel type field in the function that is the problem. I have not been able to get this working.
I am using Access 2007 to update a page on an external website (amongst other things) from an Access form using VBA, but that page has recently changed. I have dealt with most of the issues around this, but there is still a problem that I cannot see how to resolve. Previously all the fields on the page were uniquely named, and so I was able to assign values from my form to them using
Code: .document.all.item(fieldname).value=...
But now there appear to be identically named fields on the webpage and I cannot see how to differentiate between them in my code. I have attached a text file with the two relevant sections, containing the HTML for the two relevant sections on that page only (the code for the whole page runs to 8000+ lines and I can add the lot if really necessary) and as you will see the names for things like runs (name="result[][runs]") and wickets ("result[][wickets]") are the same in both sections. So how do I tell one from the other in my code?
Currently I have the following:
With objIE .Visible = True .... '1st innings - new HTML field names but duplicated on the webpage .Document.all.Item("result[][runs]").value = nz(Me![runs_for#]) .Document.all.Item("result[][wickets]").value = nz(Me![wickets_for#])
[Code] .....
How can I differentiate between the HTML field names in the attached file as simply as possible in my code above?
I am using Access 2013 under Windows 7. In my database I have a table, tblStock, with field names Module, Component_1, Component_2, etc. up to Component_50. I also have fields Qty_1, Qty_2, etc. up to Qty_50. These field names are not easily changed as they are constantly updated from another database. I want to create a table, tblTempBOM, using VBA by selecting a particular value of Module selected from a combo box on a form, from tblStock and creating a record with the Fields "Module", "Component" and "Qty" for each Component and Qty from 1 to 50. I am trying to use a From... Next... loop to cycle through the Component and Qty fields and store the data in the new table.
Dim strModule As String Dim strSQL As String Dim strQty As String Dim strEye As String Dim strTest As String
[code]....
This runs to the point where I try to set the value of rcd![StockCode], but the item rcdStock![strTest] has no value.Can I reference the value of the field in the rcdStock Recordset in some other way that would work?
I have a report that I would like to export to a folder, and I would like to include the FullName within the naming convention of the PDF. When I run the report it prompts for the Employee ID..Here is what I have so far, I'm getting an error of "Run Time Error 424 object required" on the String Report Name,
Private Sub Create_PDF_Click() Dim myPath As String Dim strReportName As String DoCmd.OpenReport "Report_Salary_Worksheet _Finalized_By_EmpID", acViewPreview myPath = "W:COMPENSPHYSICIANSComp Plans" strReportName = Report_Salary_Worksheet_Finalized_By_EmpID.[FullName] + ".pdf" DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "", acFormatPDF, myPath + strReportName, True DoCmd.Close acReport, " Report_Salary_Worksheet _Finalized_By_EmpID " End Sub
I have a form with several data fields on it. I also have a button on the form that allows the user to duplicate a record . The reason for this duplication is so that if there will be an additional client record for the same customer, but only one piece of data will need to be changed, it's easier to copy the record and then change the one field.
However, I am getting the following message:
"some of the field names you tried to paste don't match fieldnames on the form"
and then not all data in all fields gets duplicated.
I need to figure this out, but am going nuts with it. If anyone has an idea or two they'd care to toss my way, I would be happy.
I need a function or way of dealing with a field that may or may not exist.
I am crosstabbing a large database and then building queries on the crosstab. However, the field from which the column headings come does not always have the same data in it as I have to cut the data in different ways (always similar but not always the same). As a result, sometimes I get the error message:
"The Microsoft Jet Engine doesnot recognise [FIELD] as a valid field name or expression"
where a field I was expecting did not appear.
If it was a null value within a field I remove it like this: iif([Field] is null, 0, [Field])
Is there an equivalent formula for "exists" that will stop my queries falling over when it cannot find the field? eg iif(exists([Field]),[Field],0)
Any help, guidance or assistance gratefully received!
I spent all day trying to figure out why sometimes I can call an excel function from access and the value will appear on my form, but for some functions (F.inv, binom.inv), it errors out as "object not supported". I browsed all the available libraries in tools/reference but found nothing that seemed to solve this issue.
I know SQL well enough, but I cant seem to get my query to work. Basically, I am trying to display a series of posts, with the number of comments on the side.
I have two tables, Entries and Comments, which look like this: Entries --------- IDTitleContent (memo field) 1CatsSomething about cats here 2DogsSomething else about dogs here 3RodentsMy pet rat runs in a wheel etc.
Comments -------- IDPostIDComments 11My cat's name is mittens 21I taught my cat how to throw a curve ball 33Rats like squeak toys 42Nobody likes dogs 53Bunnies make good pets 61Cats are witches in disguise Comments.PostID corresponds to Entries.ID on a many-to-one relationship.
I want to run a query that will join the number of comments (which is a Count of each row in the Comments table where Comments.PostID = Entries.ID) to the existing table, so that it will look like this:
Entries (with #ofcomments joined) ---------- IDTitleContent (memo field)#ofcomments 1CatsSomething about cats here3 2DogsSomething else about dogs here1 3RodentsMy pet rat runs in a wheel2 etc.
Usually, this would be a really simple SQL statement, but as I am using a Memo field, I am getting a "cannot use Memo field in aggregate function" error.
I'm not sure what to do, any help would be appreciated :)
Encountered a situation where the Date and Time functions in VBA are not using current data? I have VBA code that uses Time to determine certain actions. A new associate took a copy of that code and started tinkering with it to complete a project I assigned. Now, his copy of the code returns old data for the Date and Time functions. It returns 5/27/2014 for Date and 7:15:42 AM for Time. The Now function works properly.
Additionally, running the Date and Time functions in queries works fine. I've compacted and repaired the Access database, I've checked the references, and I've checked to see if he assigned values to variables named Date or Time, but I don't see anything wrong. What am I missing?
How do I activate functions mouse functions in a field? I want to click the right key of the mouse when I'm in a field within a form so I can cut, copy, and paste.
i need domain aggregate functions to count the occurrences of specific value in a field, and when it exceeds 1, display null. or 'group by' subqueries with count() to see if you should populate the field or not.
I’m developing a claim tracking database that tracks dates of events that occur in the course of processing a claim; such as, Loss Date, Report Date, Estimate Date, Payment Date, etc. There are 16 different “Events” in all.I currently have the following tables set up:
tblClaim ClaimID ClaimNumber fkEmpID
tblEmployee EmpID EmpName
[code]....
What I need to do is create a form where management can choose two or more events, and calculate the average number of days between two of any of the events, for an employee, or all employees.I have created a crosstab query to change the values in the EventName field in tblEvents to field names, and the EventDate as values for the related EventNames. I created another query based on this query to do the DateDiff.
I created combo boxes on my form with the Row Source Type set to Field List, for a list of fields in my crosstab query. I’ve tried to use the following DateDiff function to get the days between the two fields selected in my combo boxes:
But I get an error about unrecognized field name or expression for my combo boxes. So I added my combo boxes in the query parameter window, with a data type as both text and value, but with both I get an error “This expression is typed incorrectly or is too complex to be evaluated.” I also specified the column headings in the crosstab but I still am getting the “too complex” error.I’m pretty sure it’s trying to do a Datediff on the literal values in the comboboxes and not recognizing that I’m trying to specify field names.Is it possible to assign field names in DateDiff this way?
If 2 tables have a field named 'EmployeeID' (for example), are you screwed when it comes to queries and vba, as far as selecting fields / specifying data goes?
I need an opinion. I'm new to access so I'm really lost I have to create a database consisting of 20 clients. Then they gave me 4 steps I had to accomplish:
Create a total of all account balances, so the total number of recievables are known.
For each account, calculate the number of days each balance has been outstanding.
Classify the account into 4 groups three late (30,60,90 days overdue) and one current (under 30 days), Total the amount of outstanding recievables for each catagory.
Sort using number of days balance is outstanding as primary sort key and outstanding balance as the second sort key.
My question is should I make a field called Days overdue and a separate one for outstanding balance. It also seems they want me to do calculations in the table. I thought that was not an excepted taboo? Are the 4 goals possible to accomplish in access? Please give me some help!
I used the code below to check the empty fields in the form and populate it in a message
Code: Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer) Dim ctr As Control Dim strMsg As String 'Loop through every control on the form For Each ctr In Me.Controls
[code].....
I want the message to show the captions of controls instead of its names
I have a main form that has a Tab Control. The tab control could have 5 to 10 tabs. Each tab has a subform and in some instances a tab could have a tab inside that tab with subforms as well. I want to be able to get the subform names in each tab.
I am able to get the main form name by using me.form.name
How can i get the names of each subform in each tab?
I am creating a dynamic form and need to get the names into variables for later use...
I have succeeded (with some help from this site!) in creating a clinical database for the Diabetes Care team in our hospital. Now, our IT helpdesk staff want me to list the field names and data types. The design view of the tables seems to contain everything they need, but I have tried everything and cannot find a way to paste this info. out into any other format, Word, Excel etc. Has anyone ever managed this or is there something else I should do?
I have been looking at the way I name fields and thought I'd Google the topic. Seems to be a split as to prefix names or not. Looks like the SQL Sever and Oracle groups say not to while Access users are kind of directed to use them...
While I have not prefixed names in the past, I was going to do my next db with the things like:
intMyFldName strMyFldName etc...
Where as in the past I would do something like:
my_fld_name_one my_fld_name_two etc...
What do you all see as some of the pro's and con's?
I would like to have a listbox that contains all of the fields names from a table. Since the user will be selecting items from this list box, the field names should be referred to by their captions as defined in the table.
The listbox values will change depending on the value selected from another listbox.
Question: using code, how can I fill a list box with field names and display the field caption?
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Driverserror '80040e14' [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'Description One LIKE '%flip%''. /sbs/search_prods.asp, line 22
I know that it's becuase the field name is Access is "Description One" as opposed to "DescriptionOne" or "Description_One".
The problem is that I can't alter the actual DB table (it is part of another system that I'm attempting to integrate the site with). Is there anyway to write a query statement that will allow for field names to have spaces in them?
