For instance, I got some dynamic length path with filename as follows:
F:OUTDOOR9-8W1250832 ABCworking 1.3-0.6 BOARD 720.tif
Is there any easy way to get only the "working 1.3-0.6 BOARD 720.tif", which is the desired filename.

I am building an application using MS ACCESS for a local volunteer ambulance corps and have almost complete it except for the last challenge. I have built many applications like this, with an form to add, modify and delete option for a single table. This time, the accountant asked for data to be saved before being deleted to another table so he can review it after it was deleted by a user and then delete it from that "backup" table. I am at a loss to write the code. However, being a reader of this forum taught me many things in the past and I decided to join and ask this query of the community. I know it is an insert command and I have created a mirror table for the real one with all of the twenty or so fields. The fields are the usual name, address, city state and zip with telephone numbers and some other info.

I'm trying to insert a set of values into a table using SQL.
Here's my code:
DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO tblAuditTrail([DateTime], [UserName], [RecordID], [Action], [FieldName], [OldValue], [NewValue])VALUES (" & Now() & ", " & User & ", & Me.CSM & ", " & 'EDIT' & ", " & 'Location' & ", " & Me.txtTranFrom & ", " & Me.txtTranTo & ");"
However, this returns a compile error.
I reference User as Environ("USERNAME") earlier in the code. Everything else pulls from the current table ("tblInventory").
I'm lost, since I've never attempted to use SQL in VBA.

I have a table that contains passive and active devices. I want to find correct active device to which passive device is connected. However passive device can be connected to another passive device and after that to an active device - could be endless times a passive device is connected to passive device and then in the end to an active device. So the code needs to plot the path from beginning passive device to the correct active device.
I will include excel table with data and wanted result.
The criteria for passive devices that need its active device found, is i think something like this:
Code:
SELECT * FROM tablename WHERE [TYPE] = "D3P" AND NOT [Mark] LIKE "*ZUUM*" AND [Sort] = "Passive"
I got the result via doing excel function index-match for like 5 times and excel stalling. However I would like it to be done automatically.

I am trying to automate the function that imports Infopath (.xml) data into access tables. I can have a button run the MenuCommand, but then the users have to go through all of the prompts and I just don't trust them enough to do it properly.
All I want is the user to click a button, then it lets them browse for the desired file and then imports it.

In a Access 2003 database, I have an "Inscriptions" (subscription) database with a primary key on 2 fields idPersonnel (employee) and idSession. I have made a form so that user can select a session (in a listbox), then one or more employee (another listbox) and suscribe them to that session by using a button, which, on VBA side, first check that there is enough room on the session (defined by "MaxParticipants" field on "Sessions" table, linked to "Inscriptions" table on idSession), then insert data in "Inscriptions" table
This is working fine in a single-user environnement, but fails if 2 people want to join some employees on the same session at the same time, as I have a confirmation message between check and insertion. Therefore 2 users can select employees, get the confirmation message (at this point both are told there is enough room), resulting in having more people than expected joined to the session. Fortuneatly, if both users try to insert the same employee(s) to that table, one will get a duplicate error, but insertion will be made if employees are different.
On another DB engine, such as SQL server, I would use a stored procedure that would lock the table, do the check and the insertion then unlock the table.
But it does not seem to be possible in MS Access. What are the possibilities in MS Access to prevent a session from having more than maximum number of participants ?

The code below sets my printer to "Cute PDF writer" and then opens a report in print view, which creates a PDF version of my report. So far so good. But just before the last step, it brings up the Save As dialog box, asking for a filename and location.
Three points are important:I always want to call the PDF document "Specialty Report".I always want to save it to C:Documents and Settings80435 Desktop. I always want to overwrite the previous version.
Is there some code I can insert that would achieve this automatically with no further user interaction i.e. user clicks a button and the PDF file is created/overwritten?
Code:
'Produce the report
Dim defPrinter As String, NewPrinter As Printer
defPrinter = Application.Printer.DeviceName 'Get the default printer name
Set NewPrinter = Application.Printers("CutePDF Writer") 'Create a new printer object
Set Application.Printer = NewPrinter 'Set the default printer to the new printer
DoCmd.OpenReport "Specialty Report", acViewPrint 'Open the report in print view (which will PDF it)
Set NewPrinter = Application.Printers(defPrinter) 'Reset the printer back to the default printer

I need to import 300+ individual .txt files into a MS Access DB table (named "tbl_input"). Each of the the .txt files have a naming convention similar to this:
Pink_Floyd_YYYYMMDD.txt
Because this initial import is so large and I would like to avoid doing it manually, I need to be able to:
import each of these files into a single table
delimit the text in each based on the "|" symbol
add the filename into an empty field

Is it possible to create a button that automatically saves a report as .pdf? And automatically generates the filename.
Like 0810-544 (0810 is the date and 544 is the ID from the form.)

My access is 2013.
Suppose there's a simple query which has two fields, "year" and "graduates", where "year" can be grouped by "2012", "2013", etc and "graduates" are individual names.
How can I export the list of graduates to multiple excel files, with the filename based on "year"?
I have tried to set the output file in macro as "c:desktop" & query.year & ".xls"
But it's not working and the output filename is exactly "&query.year&.xls "and the file contains all year and all names.

I am using Access 2010 in a split database. The intent is to place the back end and associated linked files on a server and the front end on work stations for each user. The typical user will just be searching for information in the database not altering it. My current code re-links the tables once the path is known i.e. I have to hard code it into the global constant. Is there a way in VBA or utilizing VBA to read/write to an ini file (for example) that the UNC path would automatically be updated to a global constant in my current code that can be updated automatically based on where the back end is installed.
Global Const BE_DATABASE = "192.168.2.3FMCENFMCTABLES.accdb"
Global Const BE_PASSWORD = "***********"
Global Const BE_DATABASEPATH = "192.168.2.3FMC" 'used to open files
Public Sub CreateDatabaseLinks()
On Error Resume Next 'new
Dim ws As DAO.Workspace
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim td As DAO.TableDef

Im trying to programmatically (without any user intervention) retrieve the long path name for a given file. It seems to me this should be a rather easy thing to achieve using Access VBA. Ive tried using various FileSystemObject methods with no luck. Ive Googled many variants of VBA get full path without any meaningful hits. provide the first string as a parameter to some object and have it magically return the second string.
String 1: C:PROGRA~2COMMON~1MICROS~1VBAVBA7VBE7.DLL
Stint 2: C:Program Files (x86)Common Filesmicrosoft sharedVBAVBA7

I am trying to write vba code to enter a form. A am using an SQL statement in vba to enter the form with it.
I want to include a string variable in the WHERE clause of the SQL statement. The string variable is introduced in the DIM statement before coming up to the SQL statement.
The following is the SQL statement. numrukarta is the string variable I want to introduce. I need to know the exact punctuation to be able to insert it into this statement.
StrSq1 = " SELECT Employees.NName, Employees.SSurname, WorkItems.IDcardNo, WorkItems.DDate, WorkItems.EntryTime, WorkItems.FinishTime, WorkItems.Roster" _
& " FROM Employees INNER JOIN WorkItems ON Employees.IDcardNo = WorkItems.IDcardNo" _
& " WHERE (((WorkItems.IDcardNo)= numrukarta) AND ((WorkItems.DDate)=Date()) AND ((WorkItems.FinishTime) Is Null);" AND (Not (WorkItems.Roster) Is Null))

I have a module that I am using to verify that file paths in my table point to valid jpg files. The table has grown quite a bit since I first created the module and it has gotten to the point where it's taking too long for the module to execute. I'm in the process of trying to change the record set for the module from the table to a stored query procedure but it's turning out to be a little tricky for me. When I execute the following module, I'm not getting any error code, it just doesn't seem to do anything at all. The bits in red are the parts I've changed. Before that the module executed as I expected it would.
Code:
Sub TestIt2()
Dim strFileName As String
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Set db = CurrentDb()
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("QryUpdateRevisionHistory")

I am trying to write some code to open an existing excel form, populate it, and save it with a custom filename in a directory that is built using variables I have declared.
The only part I am having difficulty with is setting the pathname. Here is my code:
Code:
'Build path to save file to
spath = "S:ContractsGeomatics LABSigned" & Company
'Build File name
Filename = "" & reservationNumberforForm & " " & Company & "-Payment Schedule"
'Save the payment schedule to the S: drive
'xlApp.ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="S:ContractsGeomatics LABSigned" & Filename, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbook
xlApp.ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="" & spath & " " & Filename, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbook
xlApp.ActiveWorkbook.Saved = True

I've recently created a new Access 2010 Database which I'm developing an interface for in VBA. I've created a new Userform in the Visual Studio (this required me to add the Userform button). I'm finding that when I insert the Multipage object which I need to use on the form I can no longer run the Userform. When I attempt to run, I get the error 'Path/File Access Error' followed by 'Run time error 75 - Could not find the specified object'.
It's definitely linked to the Multipage which I've inserted from the toolbox (standard object) as the form runs fine when it is not there and with other objects (have tested all other toolbox items). There is currently no code in written in the project, no tables or queries set up in the database therefore nothing is running when the form loads.
I've successfully used Multipages in a number of other VBA interfaces both in Access and Excel so not sure why they are causing a problem here. I've also just created a userform in exactly the same way in a new Excel sheet and it runs fine with the multipage.
