Modules & VBA :: Passing Variables To Make Table Query
Sep 29, 2014
Access 2010 vba - I'm trying to pass a start date and end date to a date field in a make table query, and use the 'between' operator on that date field.
So I have a criteria on the date field like this "Between [dtStart] and [dtEnd]" and if I run the query manually it asks for 2 values and then works fine.
Here's the code I'm trying to run:-
Set qdef = db.QueryDefs("qryTest")
qdef.Parameters("dtStart") = StartDate1
qdef.Parameters("dtEnd") = EndDate1
Set rs1 = qdef.OpenRecordset(dbOpenDynaset, dbSeeChanges)
and I get the error "3219 Invalid Operation" on the last line.
My problem is as follows, i have created a report that calculates the total volume of FSC Materials. The user picks two dates from Calender controls that the report will range from. However the needs have now changed and i am required to make the report filter further based on user input, the problem i'm facing is that i cannot figure out a way to pass values from different variables to the report separate from another here is the code i would usually use to pass data to a query/report:
Code: Private Sub MonthlyFSC_Click() Msg = MsgBox("Select the Start and Finish Dates you wish to Query.", , "Start / Finish") Start = adhDoCalendar() Finish = adhDoCalendar()
[Code] ....
However i am now trying to do this, but it gives me an error as it is trying to pass the values to one field:
It is performing incorrectly within the case select and passing the wrong criteria, as it will only display results that meet the default values' criteria. However the date criteria is not be passed either.
I have a public sub routine which requires parameters to be passed to it when I call it from an access form. When I try to enter the code to call the sub I get a compile error. I've also tried calling it from another sub in the same module but get the same compile error - see below.
Code: Sub EmailData(Datafile As String, To_mail As String, CC_mail As String, Subject_mail As String) 'code to use variables passed in End Sub
Public Function OdometerInput(varodometer As Variant) As Long Dim varKilometres As Variant varKilometres = varodometer * 1.609344 OdometerInput = CLng(varKilometres) End Function
It works fine in the immediate window (although I haven't just fathomed what to do with null values and such) But my question which I am sure will be 'easy when you know' is how do I pass the variable to it from a text box on a form and retrieve the data in another text box on a form.
I have never tried passing variables while calling a function so I don't know what the heck I'm doing. I'll give a simplified example of what I'm trying to do. The second variable vRank is reporting properly but the first one vID gets "stuck" on whatever the first item in the listbox is.
Code: Dim vrt As Variant Dim upSQL As String For vrt = 0 To Me.List1.ListCount - 1 If Me.List1.Selected(vrt) = True Then Call ChangeUp(Me.List1.Column(0, vrt), Me.List1.Column(1, vrt))
I have a function that when called transfers a query recordset to an excel spreadsheet then emails it. At the end of the function I use code to write the date sent to a table. Each time the function is called I only need records in the query that have been modified since the last time the function was called. I have a field in the query 'LastModified' with a criteria '>[Enter Date]'. I then look up the date in the table and enter it manually. I know how to look up the last date sent in table using code but getting the >#SomeDate# in the query with VBA.
Hi, I am writing a script which will retrieve all of the tracks relating to whichever cd the user has chosen. The script is being written in asp and the line which sends the variable to access looks a bit like this:
sqlQuery3 = "up_getAlbumTrackInfo " & productID Set rs3 = dbConn.Execute(sqlQuery3)
If possible could you tell me how to retrieve this value from access as I have become lost.
At present the SQL code in the query looks like this
SELECT tblTracks.trackName, tblTracks.TrackNumber FROM tblTracks WHERE tblTracks.productID = (** variable would go here **)
I'm into one of the subforms that will be using the public variable from the main form and am not having success passing the data from the main form over. on the subform, i created a textbox (txt_currentyear) w/ this in the control source field: =[WrkYear] & " Golf Outing"
WrkYear was the defined in a module as: ********** Option Compare Database Option Explicit
Public WrkYear As String **********
I have created a listbox w/ a few years in it (current_year_listbox). this has =[WrkYear]=Me.Current_Year_listbox.Value in the after update field. i loaded the main form, selected the year, went into the subform to see if it passed the data along w/ no luck.
do i need to call or reference that module in every form or report before i can use the data from it? right now, i just get an empty field on the subform.
Before I go any further w/this current application, I want to make sure this will work.
I have an access database w/a few forms that will sit on a shared drive on a network. Each user will also have their own username and password because each user will have a certain level of access to what they are allowed to see. The problem I am facing is that if I put the users ID into the global variables module, and two users log on at the same time, then access seems to somehow use both of the IDs when running queries. This makes sense that all uses can see it, since it's Global... but I need a way for simultaneous users to have a persistant unique id so I can query data that's only meant for them. I found this example of code that might remedy the situation by passing variables between the forms.
Call the code below in frmOne to pass the variable.
I would like to declare Global or Public variables from a table so they can be added to or edited easily. I had the following function to do this with Alpha Five but at the moment my lack of knowledge of Access VBA is making this task difficult.
Here is the function that I use in Alpha:
FUNCTION udVars AS A (udTabName AS C ) dim codeStr as c t=table.open_session(udTabName,file_ro_shared) t.fetch_first() while .not. t.fetch_eof()
[Code] ....
It opens a table reads in the records and then makes them into a string the string would look something like this:
"Public EuroRate as Single = 0.885"
I would then need to use this string to declare the variables but not sure what command to use - I was looking at the Eval function last night but couldn't get this to work...
The table would hold strings for all the above so you would have:
My_Var (variable name) My_Typ (type of variable e.g. Single) My_Val (value e.g. 0.885)
The table would hold as many variables as required, some would be dates, some paths for making directories and some would be numbers.
It just occurred to me that I use certain variables in several of my routines. Maybe you've done the same... something like:
Dim db as DAO.Database Dim rst as DAO.recordset Dim qdf as DAO.QueryDef
Now, if it's re-used in many routines, wouldn't it make more sense to make it a public variable, and set them to whatever you need it for a certain routine? Would it be more efficient than having to re-initializing and discarding it for every routine that used it? What problem would one expect from making them public?
Also, since it's very common to set db = CurrentDb, would it also make sense to set it publicly, and for cases where you aren't using CurrentDb, use a private variable just for that one?
I have a table with only two fields and one record: BegDate and EndDate (beginning and end date of the reporting period respectively). I also made a function with variables that look up those values for use as a date parameter in a query.
Here is the code:
Option Compare Database Option Explicit Public Function getCurrentRepDates() As Date Dim dtBegDate As Date dtBegDate = DLookup("BegDate", "tblCurrentRepDates")
[Code] ....
I am getting a syntax error for the line marked red. How can I use "Between" function in VBA code? Access 2010
I have a form in which the user selects a combobox and this value becomes a tempvar called "un" on clicking a command button I need the value of "un" to be passed into a table."un" is a number.Here is what I have so far.....
I am trying to count rows in the result of one of the queries and I am having a bit of trouble getting it going.
The current code - this is executed as on-click event when clicked on List Box feed with query below.
What I want to add is simple if that when number of rows produced by the querry is 1 it will enable a picture item in the different part of the form, however it does not want to count the rows for me.
Code: Private Sub search_items_Click() Me.OBSFullFilledOrdersHolder.Enabled = True mysql = "SELECT orders.[order id] , STUDENTS.[first name]& ' ' & students.[surname] AS Name, students.[contact name] AS ContactName , ORDERS.[Online Bookshelf order] AS OBS , STUDENTS.[Delivery Address 1], STUDENTS.[Delivery Address 2], STUDENTS.[Delivery Address 3], STUDENTS.[Delivery Address 4]"
[Code] ....
The query itself works when tested but when used in code with DCount function will return error: Run-Time 2471 the expression you entered as query parameter prouced this error
I have a table that contains dates (Saturday through Friday). When I set up my query, I would like data returned where the date in a field is between the Saturday date and Friday date. Is there anyway to do this n the query without hard coding the dates in and manually changing the dates every week?
Picture, if you will, a table with multiple fields, each of which contains the date of a certain action in the process tracked by each record. I have a standard report format that will be used to view the progress of the actions. I want to be able to sort the report - on demand by non-technical users - by whichever date field they choose.
I've created a form with a combo box that is linked to a table with the name of each field in the source table. A Macro has been configured to open the form when the report is opened, which will prompt for the selection of the sort field. That value is then captured into a TempVar.
When the user clicks OK control passes to a procedure in a module that executes a SELECT statement (SQL) that configures the Query that is used for report generation. The "ORDER BY" portion of the statement needs to be modified with the name of the sort field desired. If the statement is hard coded as, for example:
...ORDER BY Main.[Initiated Date] DESC;
it works fine. I want to use the value of the TempVar to provide the name of the date field (ex.: [Initiated Date]), but I can't determine the correct syntax to get the statement to accept it. Concatenating doesn't seem to work, and I've searched high and low for hints on the web. Here's one version of what I've tried (and which fails):
"...ORDER BY Main." & [TempVars].[SortParm] & ";"
The error returned by the above version is: "Object doesn't support this property or method"
(SortParm is the name of the TempVar, and it is correctly populating, and keeping, the value I need from the form.)
I have the following Visual Basic code which I am using to dynamically pass the parameters "SAFP" and date 10/31/2014 to the query:
Option Compare Database
'------------------------------------------------------------ ' Run_Risk_Assessment_Report ' '------------------------------------------------------------ 'Original macro code Function Run_Risk_Assessment_Report() On Error GoTo Run_Risk_Assessment_Report_Err Dim dbs As DAO.Database Dim test1 As DAO.QueryDef
[Code] ....
When I run the query, i get the error "Item not Found in this collection"
I have a form with a date field, when the user creates a new record, I would like the date field to automatically fill with the most up-to-date date from the Orderdate table.
Basically I need the code to do the following when a new record is created;
Search the Orderdate table for the most recent date and then auto fill the date field on the form with that date!!!!
My thinking so far...
Private Sub Command34 - where would you set this event on the properties i.e. Before update or On Got Focus ?
Docmd.OpenQuery "QryFindMaxDate"
I'm not really sure how to pass the date to the text box on the form,
I'm having a rough time trying to figure out how to pass a date to an SQL statement that Excel VBA macro will run. The date is in a cell (A1) formatted as 'm/d/yyyy'. Let's say it's 2/1/2014. I want to run an SQL statement that retrieves data from a table where a field is greater than 'A1'. The table field is a date/time field and has values formatted as 'mm/dd/yyyy'.
I've tried various syntax on the Where but cannot get it to work. sd = Range("A1") SELECT [tn].[Date Submitted] FROM[tn] WHERE tn.[Date Submitted] > """ & sd & """
This results in the following where clause that does not work. WHERE tn.[Date Submitted] > "2/1/2014"
How can I pass two (2) values to a saved query ? These values are in a form that has a listbox with two (2) columns. The name of the form is 'Previous Evaluation Form'. I'm able to retrieve the values from both columns of the listbox in the form and I've already created the query. Both are working fine, but can figure out how to pass the query's criteria to select records for 'Name' and 'Date' columns of the query. Below is what I had in the 'Criteria:' of the query. What wrong with the code that is placed in the query's 'Criteria:' ?
I'm running a VBA routine in Excel that loops through a lot of data. As part of the process, I'd like to pass a variable from Excel to an Access database that is open and have it run a query based on that value.
I have a query that searches for records that are between two dates using the WHERE clause. The two dates are referenced to two respective text boxes on a form. On the same form I have a button that will launch the query in VBA using querydefs. I get the error 3061 saying I need to input the parameters. Therefore I am a bit unsure how to set the parameters in VBA. So far I have done this:
Code:
Dim Db As DAO.Database Set Db = CurrentDb Dim QDef As DAO.QueryDef Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Set QDef = Db.QueryDefs("Rqt_F_BrokerageMandate_MF3_TEST")
[Code] ....
Where Date_VL is the field to be filtered. I know this is wrong but all examples I have seen have equated the parameter to a fixed value i.e 30/12/2012 for example, but I want this to be at the users discression. The only way I know of to get around this at the moment would be to write a temp query in VBA with PARAMETERS in the SQL code instead using the method above/
After this I'm going to assign the recordset to a matrix but that's a different story!
I'm trying to copy the structure of a table to make a temp table. I'm using CopyObject (which also copies the data). So when I delete the data from the temp table, it also deletes data from the source table. Is the data linked? It should just be deleted from the temp table. Below is the beginning of the code. I've stepped through, and at the last step shown, the data in the source table deletes.
Code: Dim strFile As String Dim temp As String Dim tbl As String Dim db As DAO.Database
I have a linked table tblHome which is stored in a Sql Server DB and I want to create a form with 3 fields in it i.e. fieldA, fieldB, and FieldC in it and a button.
I want to add values to fields fieldA and fieldB and fieldC and when I click the button I want the value in fieldA to update any records in the linked table tblHome which contains the values in fields fieldB and FieldC.
I have a table with 3 fields. The fields are down1, down2 and down3. . I would like to use this table to create a new table (downtime). What I need too do is loop through each record in the table and place the three fields independently in my new table. For example, I would like to go to the first record in my original table, than place down1 as my first record in my new table, down2 as my second record and down3 as my third. Than I will go to the second record in my original table and place down1 as my fourth record, down2 as my fifth record, down3 and my sixth record and so on. I want to make a toggle button that will do this.
