I created some VBA imports from a saved Excel file. When I run it on my computer, it works fine. When my coworkers run it, they get an error "Type mismatch." Some files seem to upload despite the error, but I'd like to figure out why it's happening, especially for cases where the data doesn't import. As a band-aid, I added a line in my error handler that says if the error = "Type mismatch." then just resume.
So I have a macro in excel which imports data from the excel sheet to a table in access db. Now the excel file has 4 columns which have dates.
- I imported the excel file from access via access so that I can get the heading of the table and the table is created. Then I deleted all the data in the table.
- When the table was imported 2 of the date columns got set as Short/text data type. Dont know why.
- Now, if I leave the data type as it is in Access table, my macro button in EXCEL works fine and imports the data to Access. If I change the data type, in access design, of the two data columns to date type, I get the type mismatch error when I run the import macro button in EXCEL. I am going nuts over this error. I even created a blank table in access and defined data types to all columns which would be imported from excel. but still excel macro button shows the same error.
I checked the format of all the four date columns is date.
I did a lot of hit and try and could it be the case that if access table fields are defined properly, but any of the data columns cells in excel sheet is null/empty, it will show the type mismatch error.
is it possible and is there a way, that once the data is imported to access, I can convert the value in the column from short text to date type.

ALTERNATIVELY, is it possible and is there a way, that once the data is imported to access, I can convert the value in the column from short text to date type.
common error in VBA imports. It has happened with spreadsheets and text files I have users importing. An error message pops up "Type Mismatch." But the import appears to work correctly. So I added code that On Error, if error Like "*Type mismatch*" continue to next step. Now the user gets a longer error message: "The expression On Click entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Type mismatch." Again, the import still works, but this message is annoying! The even stranger thing is that I do not get this error message on my machine. Just the other users.
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'm using the OnLoad event of a form I've got as a placeholder to load a report from the onclick event of a button on my continuous form, and loading a chkbox into the code as a string variable.For some reason, when the DB automates the procedure, I get a 'Type mismatch' error appear, but when I step through the code using F8 it works.
when I press F5 after the code has stopped I get the 'Type mismatch' error.The chkbox contains a value of '-1', and I've used debug.print to return the TypeName and VarType values, which were 'String' and '8' (which I took to mean 'String') respectively.
There are other variables being declared in the code, and I commented out the whole lot and put each one back in individually before running the code as a process of elimination, and the checkbox was the one that threw up the error again.
Code:
Dim Prod1stSend as String Prod1stSend = me.chkProd1stSend
We are using the code to determine whether our clients have been contacted by us before, as this will decide which report is opened. I've tried setting the variable as Boolea and Variant too, and both of those still throw up the same error.
I ahve declared custCount as an integer and id as a string that comes from the user form (id = me.CustID) and trying to count the number of matching records in the recordset (rst) using the following:
custCount = DCount("[customerId]", rst, "[customerId] like '" & id & "'")
I'm getting a type mismatch error on the DCount statement?
This code runs to the set frm part then i get a type mismatch? ive tried a few different things and still nothing?
Code:
Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer) ' Create underlying recordset for report using criteria entered in ' EmployeeSalesDialogBox form. Dim intX As Integer Dim qdf As QueryDef Dim frm As Form ' Set database variable to current database. Set dbsReport = CurrentDb
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.
In plain english: Select the highest value in the field named reqNumb from FlightLog where the Month of txtDate is equal to the variable frmMonth and the year of txtDate is equal to the variable frmYear.
txtDate is a Date/Time field in the table FlightLog
frmMonth and frmYear are both integer variables that take the system time (sysTime) and determine the month and year: I.E.
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 have two tables in a query joined by a ID field. The problem is in the one table the ID fiels is a text format and in the other table its a number format so the query builder doesnt like that and gives me the Type mismatch in expression error.
There's no way around it though; i need it to be those formats in its respective tables for reasons i wont go into here for simplicity.
I'm having an issue with the database being read only and a type mismatch due to OpenRecordset. I know this database use to work when it when it was just
CurrentSerNum = RecSet(0) +1 was doing the incrementing.
I need the database to increment in a different way now.
Q=manufacture location 1st number is new=0 or used=1 2nd and third number =82 4th is single digit year aka 2015 = 5 6 and 7th are work week aka 25 for this week 8,9,10 are incremental numbers for the units made that workweek, so 001,002,003. Then week 26 starts the increment starts back at 001.
Code: Private Sub MakeThoseProducts_Click() On Error GoTo Err_MakeThoseProducts_Click Dim NumericSerial As Double Dim WorkWeek As String Dim WorkYear As String Dim WorkWeekNumber As Integer Dim WorkYearNumber As Integer Dim Location As String
I posted this on the end of the audit trail thread but nobody was really looking at it. I have used the script for the audit trail, and when I start changing any of the records, it comes up with the error:
13 - Type Mismatch
When I ctrl - break, and debug, it highlights the last line of the script:
Hi all, I have a problem with the following piece of code:
Private Sub cmdCautare_Click() Dim strSQL As String, strOrder As String, strWhere As String 'Select Case Me.cmbTipVersus 'Case 1 'If Me.cmbTipVersus = "" Then strSQL = "SELECT tblDosare.DosarID, tblDosare.DenumireDosar, tblDosare.CodDosar, tblDosare.DataDosar, tblInstante.Localitate, tblStadiu.Data, tblStadiu.Stadiu FROM tblInstante INNER JOIN (tblDosare LEFT JOIN tblStadiu ON tblDosare.DosarID = tblStadiu.Dosar) ON tblInstante.InstantaID = tblDosare.Instanta" strWhere = "WHERE" strOrder = "ORDER BY DosarID" If IsNull(Me.txtDenumire) Or Me.txtDenumire = "" Then Else strWhere = strWhere & "(DenumireDosar) Like '*" & Me.txtDenumire & "*'" End If If IsNull(Me.cmbStadiu) Or Me.cmbStadiu = "" Then Else strWhere = strWhere & "(DenumireDosar) Like '" & Me.txtDenumire & "*' & " And " & (Stadiu) Like '" & Me.cmbStadiu & "*'" End If DoCmd.OpenForm "frmRezultateCautare", acNormal Forms!frmRezultateCautare!lstRezultate.RowSource = strSQL & " " & strWhere & "" & strOrder 'End If 'End Select End Sub
And on this line strWhere = strWhere & "(DenumireDosar) Like '" & Me.txtDenumire & "*' & " And " & (Stadiu) Like '" & Me.cmbStadiu & "*'" i have an error message type mismatch. If i do the search only with the first text box the code works hjust fine but if i make the search w.r. with the second control (combo box cmbStadiu) the error appears. If anyone can help i will appreciate it. Thank you all!
I am persistently getting the "Error Number:13; Type Mismatch" with the code below. Any help is greatly appreciated... BTW, in the SQL string, i will like to have the wildcard as "*" but the VB Editor automatically changes it to " * "... can that be a problem??
Code:
Dim db As DAO.database Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef Dim sqlsearch As String
Set db = CurrentDb
If Not QueryExists("Q_Paint") Then Set qdf = db.CreateQueryDef("Q_Paint") Else Set qdf = db.QueryDefs("Q_Paint") End If
Now, I know what the error message is supposed to mean, despite my total newbie-ness. My table Product has p/k ProdID (autonumber, long integer) and my table Items has ProdID (number, long integer) as a f/k. It's a one-to-many relationship (each Item is only one kind of Product, but each Product may have multiple Items.) But when I try to run a query in Access, I get the "Type mismatch in expression" error. The only relationship is between a number and an autonumber as described above.
can someone pls tell me why i get an Type mismatch in expression err with this code:
INSERT INTO tblACAD ( PROIZVAJALEC, TIP, DN, KOSOV ) SELECT tblsifrant.Proizvajalec, tblsifrant.Tip, tblsifrant.DN, tblsifrant.Kosov FROM tblsifrant, tblACAD WHERE (((tblsifrant.Sifra)=[tblACAD.TIP]) AND ((tblsifrant.DN)=[tblACAD.DN]) AND ((tblACAD.KOSOV)>0));
If i remove one criteria to get this code then there are no err, but thats not what i want:
INSERT INTO tblACAD ( PROIZVAJALEC, TIP, DN, KOSOV ) SELECT tblsifrant.Proizvajalec, tblsifrant.Tip, tblsifrant.DN, tblsifrant.Kosov FROM tblsifrant, tblACAD WHERE (((tblsifrant.Sifra)=[tblACAD.TIP]) AND ((tblACAD.KOSOV)>0));
I create this code in design view so all the names and tables are correct.
