Modules & VBA :: Open Another Database And Send Variable Back
Apr 24, 2015
I have code that from DB1 opens DB2 and runs a Function in DB2.
The DB2 function produces a Boolean result that i am trying to get back to DB1 without success. Below is the script.
Sub Test22()
Dim AC As Object
Set AC = CreateObject("Access.Application")
rc = "K:ARSHRAutomation_ProjectsMikeFEDB2.accd b"
AC.OpenCurrentDatabase (rc)
AC.Visible = True
AC.Run "SendVariable"
End Sub
Because i am using AC.Run "SendVariable" i cant find a way to get the value of SendVariable!!

I have some code in a form that calls for a public function and passes on some values. the function makes some calculations and assigns a value to the variable "percent" in the function itself.
How can I get the value of this variable back in the form so I can use it?
Form:
Code:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Dim Table As String, TotalFields As Single
Table = "tblAdmission"
[Code]....

I have a button on my main db, that opens a second db using hte following code:
----------------------
'Dealing with external objects, use inline error trapping
On Error Resume Next
Dim appAccess As Object
Dim db As Database
Dim strAppPathName As String
Dim strAppName As String
Dim strTimesheetPathName As String
[Code] ....
This code works great to open the other db, and handles wheter the other db is already open or not, but I cant seem to pass the variable to the other db using the startup switch /cmd.
I suspect if I used the shell method it would pass the cmd , but I havnt found any way to test if the db is already open with the shell method.
How can I pass a variable to the other db when opening it using VBA?

I use a macro that attaches a document automatically to an e-mail address ready to send this report is governed by a query of which the criteria is " loss order number " this is in a pdf format of which I need if possible
The problem I have is the same pdf file keeps attaching itself to the e-mail no matter which loss order number I select. The reason I think is because the report is called NCR so it is not changing from the previous one. What I think can solve it but not sure and don't know how to do is get the " loss order number " within the report name.
If I just send the report to a file direct it does work as I am prompted for a file name
Can the loss order number get into the file name within a macro/vba
Code:
Name="EMailDatabaseObject
Name="ObjectType">Report
Name="ObjectName">SEND NCR
Name="OutputFormat">PDF Format (*.pdf
Name="To">=[E-mail Address] & IIf(Nz([E-mail Address

I've got a private sub that runs when the form loads. I want it to get the id of the record which has opened this new form.
The public sub populates the variable but it's Empty going back into my private sub. I'm sure its a simple school boy error but it has me stumped!
I want it public as I need to keep that id as new records are added in the form.
Private Sub Form_Load()
FRStudentFundingRequestID
'fundingrequest = FundinRequestID
Me.txtFKFReq = FundingRequest
End Sub
__________________________________
Public Sub FRStudentFundingRequestID()
FundingRequest = [Forms]![frmFundingRequest]![txtpk]
End Sub

I have a database which has several records with at least 5 documents needing to be attached to each record. Using attachments or OLE would cause considerable bloat, so I opted for hyperlink fields for all the document types necessary to save with each record. However, now I am faced with an issue. It is easy enough to write code to open the files by following the hyperlinks, as well as write code to send an email, but how would I go about combining the two? I need to write a code that will attach these documents to an email, as attachments and not as hyperlinks. I know with excel documents, I could follow the hyperlink and send the document by email through excel, but I also have images converted to pdf's that need to be sent as attachments.

What would the best way to open a series of queries, if you aren't sure how many of those queries there are? I have the following:
Code:
DoCmd.Close acReport, "SCEFReport"
DoCmd.OpenQuery "ClearTBLQuestions", acViewNormal, acEdit
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Q1append", acViewNormal, acEdit
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Q2append", acViewNormal, acEdit
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Q3append", acViewNormal, acEdit
Which continues as is for 10 or 11 queries named in a similar pattern, then prints a report. However, as the number of append queries is not set (they are generated in a different quantity for different purposes, it's complicated), I am not sure how to check how many there are with that style of name.

I have two databases, both have mysql backened and access frontend.
In first database, I'd like to access the second database, check if that person has an entry in the second database and then fetch that data into the first database. To make it easier, data come from different tables (though I'd probably access only one entry in each table)
Not sure where to start, the only idea I have is to link tables from both databases into the frontend ad then it's kinda easy (would have to rename the tables).

I am trying to set up something to be able to take me to a folder that holds various forms for personnel. I have a query that generates the link for each person. I have tried to set it up as a hyperlink in ACCESS 2013 and it displays as one but doesn't act like one.
I want to be able to click the link and have it open up a personnel folder for that individual. I can't find a MACRO that I can create to do it. Example of my query is that it creates a link K:Main BreakdownSection BreakdownPersonnel FoldersName and the name is the variable part.
My next problem will be to have it create that folder when we have new personnel arriving.
I would also note that I have not worked with ACCESS in many years and much of what I was able to do with 2002 and 2003 doesn't work with the newer versions of ACCESS.

Can I create a table in the back end of my database using VBA in the front end? My client is using this system and I can't easily go to their location. I need to create a table on the back end and have it available in the front end applications. My thought is to create a front end only for the purpose of updating the backend with this new table. My idea is now to have it open with a button for the user to click - this will add the table to the backend with the required fields, confirm the update was completed and then close. This app then would be trashed so it would not be run again. (Though I would put a check in the VBA that if the table existed, the user would get a message box and the coding stopped to avoid overwriting the existing file.)
And once the table is created, is there a way to programmatically link it to the front end. I will be providing a new front end with this update so I could add something in the new version.

I have a Back end (with password) which resides in a netdrive while the front end is installed in each individual users desktop, the problem is, some of the users netdrive was mapped in a different way (different letters..some are J others are G). I'm looking for code that I can relink the database to the front end in runtime, I did try to look in the net but I can't find anything that I can put the password as parameter.
this sample code from Dev is good, but i got an error because the database requires a password.where i can put the password?
Code:
Function fRefreshLinks(NewDbName As String) As Boolean
Dim strMsg As String, collTbls As Collection
Dim i As Integer, strDBPath As String, strTbl As String
Dim dbCurr As Database, dbLink As Database
Dim tdfLocal As TableDef
[code].....

I currently have two e-mail accounts on my computer. One is my default e-mail address with my name on it. The other e-mail account is a generic account with the department name.
I have a database set up to generate and send e-mails to our technicians notifying them when an order they placed gets put on back order. This database could possibly send twenty or thirty e-mails out each time it is run. My manager has requested that the database send the e-mails from the generic e-mail account instead of the default account. That way, when the field replies to the e-mail, they won't bombard my account.
Is there a way to tell the database which e-mail account to send an e-mail from?
I am currently using the below module to send the e-mails:
Option Explicit
Dim appOutlook As Outlook.Application
Dim namespaceOutlook As Outlook.NameSpace
Sub Outlook_SendMail(sEmailAddr As String, sEmailSubj As String, sEmailBody As String, Optional sAttach1 As String, Optional sAttach2 As String)
[Code] ....

Is it possible to open another database, set a Public boolean variable in a module?
in db1: Open database by Access.Application, OpenCurrentDatabase, setting obj to db2.CurrentProject, loop through main objects
in db2: Public ByPassCloseVar As Boolean is in a module ModLinkTblReview
I have a process that opens up a database runs through all of its objects to get their properties and values. There is a form that is set up on Unload to close the tool if the variable is set to False. When I open the form to get the properties and their values, then close the form, it closes the database. I would like to set the variable to true in order for the database to stay open.
Thought something like this would work: db2.Modules!ModLinkTblReview.ByPassCloseVar = True
Indicates that method or data member does not exist.

Error 91 - Object variable or With block variable not set
I am getting this error telling me that an object variable is not set.
I know which variable it is but when I step through the debugger it sets the variable and all is fine? Issue is that public variable of a class is not getting set when the VBA Editor is not open?

I look at a lot of files to see when they were last updated. I wanted to write a generic procedure to manage that so ..
Code:
Public fDate As Variant
Public vField As String
Public vFile As String
'GTSdata
vField = "txt_gts_data"
[Code] ....
What I hoped Me.vField would do is update the date field [txt_gts_data] on my form with the date the file was last saved.
i.e. me. txt_gts_data = fDate
What actually happens is the variable vfield gets updated from "txt_gts_data" to 19/08/2014 then later code falls over because the fieldname is lost .
Me.[vField] corrects itself to me.vField (and does not work)
Me!vfield falls over (cannot find the field vField, not surprising J)
How do I say update the contents of the variable, not the variable itself?

I'm wondering if there's any way to find out who has a database open.
I've saved the file as an ACCDE for the users and kept the ACCDB file as my working file. Whenever I make changes to the db I need to save a new ACCDE file on top of the existing one. In order to do that, I need to ensure no one has the db open. Half the time I need to track down 1 of 15 people to find out who it is that has it open so I can kick them out and save.
I don't have any login features, but could use the POD # that each cubicle has associated to their computer if Access allows that...

For some unknown reason I am unable to open the back end of my database, as far as I can see it has not effected people adding data through the front end, I just can't open the back end.
I checked the file format and it has changed to a LDB file, no idea what this is or why it has changed, any ideas on what has happened and how I can fix it?
