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.
All I am trying to do is import a Report from one MS Access db into another.
When I do this I get the following error: "Path/File access error :"VB4.tmp" Press okay and then I get this . . . "Name conflicts with existing module, project, or object librabry. Press okay and then I get this . . . "No Current Record"
I have recently created a db for a large Printing operation in our company. Previously, the process was all paper-based and extremely inefficient, so obviously this is a huge step in the right direction.
Upon completing the db and providing a demo to the staff, I saved a copy to a shared folder on the network for them to access (.accdb file). We've done this with other dbs before, but with smaller groups (3-4 people). With this db, since there will be anywhere up to 15 people that may want to access it at the same time, the db started crashing during the first phase of pilot testing this week.
I did some more research and found that the db should be split.the users can't open the db anymore.I have a Printing Services shared drive in which created an "Administrator" folder for the back-end (the front-end is in the same location as that folder). When I split the db, I select the back-end location to be within the Administrator folder.
TrackerAdministrator OnlyOS Tracker_be.accdb" is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.I know that the file path is valid, b/c I selected it specifically when using the wizard to create it, and I know that the staff have access to the shared drive as they had to open it in order to gain access to the front-end. Plus, it's working for me when I try to open it, just not the others.
I'm having another one of those days but I'm getting a file path and file name from a dialogbox and forgotten when the VBA property is to return the full file path and file name.
This code works fine for return the filename only:
Code:
Private Sub TEST() Dim f As Object Set f = Application.FileDialog(3) f.AllowMultiSelect = True If f.Show Then For I = 1 To f.SelectedItems.Count MsgBox Filename(f.SelectedItems(I)) Next End If End Sub
Instead of using 'Filename' what else can I use to return what I need?
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.
I am using MS Access 2010. I have a code that I am using that loops through a folder gather all the names of the files in the folder and inserts them into a table (shown below). The table is named "tblFiles" there are two columns in the table titled file name and file path. What I want to do is to also loop through the same folder to find the file path of the files and insert them into the file path column has a hyperlink where users can just click on the hyperlink and the file opens.
Private Sub Form_Load() Dim fs, f, f1, fc, s Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("tblFiles")
I have the code below and I want it to open a file from my documents folder. The only problem is that every computers path is different to this folder. Any easy way to work around and open a file in My Documents without the full path?
I want to eliminate the part of the path in red and make it universal because computers will have a different number.
Operating System: Windows 7
Code below:
Public Function AddITARPicOffloadAnalysis() Dim xlApp As Object Set xlApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application") With xlApp Dim wb As Object Dim ws As Object Dim Lastrow As Long
I have a folder which holds 1000s of pictures organised in subfolders, for example:
D:~AI Database Print Scans2009family and D:~AI Database Print Scans2009holiday
And so forth. In total at the moment 17 main subfolders, each of which hold another 2-3 subfolders.
I am putting together a database to bring pictures together with all sorts of details. I import the picture via hyperlink and complete the various fields. All that works fine but there are a lot of pictures! And it gets confusing to see which ones have already been entered into the database and which ones haven’t.
One solution for this is to copy the pictures that have been “completed” to another folder. I have found a way to do that:
Dim fs As Object Dim oldPath As String, newPath As String oldPath = Forms!frmPrintDetails.txtPath1 newPath = "D:~AI Database Print ScansCompleted_Entries" Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") fs.CopyFile oldPath, newPath Set fs = Nothing
Works fine, but the problem is that I loose the subfolder structure, it copies all pictures to the same main folder. I’d like to maintain the subfolder structure and add code to create the correct subfolders and next copy the picture. With the different paths I’m lost. I don’t know how to extract the correct path in code. I’d also like to either rename or remove the picture once I have completed entry of the details. The problem I have again is that I don’t know how to code for a changing path.
I have been trying to figure this out for ages but I cant seem to get the code right or find any info on it.
In my database i have a mail merge on a button click which creates a new merged word document. I then need a way of when the user saves the document in word, bringing back the file path and putting it in a table called tblHistory with the correct customer ID in there too.
I've vba in Report onformat the vba code does some data copying to External Excel file (premade by vba).Now on first run, i got success.But on opening the excel file, it showed blank space + Error"File already opened"
No White Spreadsheet is shown with data to see into file, i created new excel file in windows, and inserted the vba created/exported file as an Obj.Now Obj is showing correct and full data with spreadsheet as normal view.
In the access form I want to add a button with a special functionality.
After clicking "Select file" button special window should be open (or something else). It should give user a possibility of files locating (doc, pdf, rtf, txt ...).
After selecting the file and confirm the choice in the table "File_location" in database path to the file should be saved .
I've got the forms and queries in one .accdb file and my tables in a separate .accdb file. The forms file links to the tables in the tables file. The tables file resides in a folder called simply enough C:acc_tables and thats where i browsed to (obviously) when i set up the linkage.
One of the users does not wish (for whatever goddamn reason) to create a C:acc_tables file to stick the tables file in , and wants the tables file in some other folder.. Unfortunately this user does not have the skills to delete the existing links and re-link to the tables file after putting it in the folder he wants.
Where in the file that holds the forms and and queries do i find the path setting to the tables linked file? Can it be changed without deleting links and then re-linking?
I have a button that allows a user to select a file using the windows select file dialog using the following code:
Dim fd As FileDialog Set fd = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)
With fd .Title = "Select A Text file to Import" .Filters.Add "Text File", "*.txt" .FilterIndex = 1 .AllowMultiSelect = False .InitialFileName = CurrentProject.path result = .Show If (result <> 0) Then Me!txt_path = Trim(.SelectedItems.Item(1)) End If End With
Is there a way that I can capture the path of the file they select in a separate text box?
I went to the Microsoft knowledge base (304408) and found a routine that automatically logs off users with a short warning. It works fine, but depends on the presence or absence of a small text file which is named chkfile.ozx. The file is referenced in a form timer function as follows:
Dim StrFilename as String strfilename = Dir("c:MyDirectorychkfile.ozx")
The function then tests for its presence and does its thing. You trigger the logoff by going in as sysop and changing the name of the file so it is no longer found.
The problem I have is that on the network, I use the backend file on the network and different users map different letters to it. I get around this by linking using UNC eg. \ServerNameSYSData_be.mdb.
I put the chkfile.ozx into this directory since all users presumably have access to it.
I tried changing the trigger function to
strfilename = Dir("\ServerNameSYSchkfile.ozx")
but the program doesn't recognize the presence of the file. When I map it as "F:SYSchkfile.ozx" it works, but since all users will not be mapped to "F", it really isn't a solution.
Does anyone know the proper syntax to include in the Dir method for UNC naming?
I nave a code which allows the user to upload a file to a folder "images". I want to be able to record the filename and path in a table called "attachments". But I am not sure how. Can anyone help
Private Sub Command0_Click()
Dim FD As FileDialog Dim Name As String Dim Name2 As String Dim Pathx As String Dim Path As String Pathx = Me.Application.CurrentProject.Path & "Images" Path = Me.Application.CurrentProject.Path Set FD = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker) Dim vrtSelectedItem As Variant With FD .AllowMultiSelect = False 'Add a filter that includes GIF and JPEG images and make it the second item in the list. .Filters.Add "PDF", "*.pdf, 1"
'Sets the initial file filter to number 2. '.FilterIndex = 2
If .Show = -1 Then For Each vrtSelectedItem In .SelectedItems Name = Dir(vrtSelectedItem, vbSystem) Name2 = Pathx & Name If Name2 = vrtSelectedItem Then Else FileCopy vrtSelectedItem, Pathx & Name End If
i am using file browser to save a file in MS ACCESS forms. However, i want another file browser to allow the user to specify the folder he wants, then from the folder he selects, i will generate a series of codes. Any advice on How can tat be done?
I am importing csv files into tables in a batch routine and I get the following error messages. The error number is always 2391.
Field 'F1' Doesn't Exist in Destination Table Field 'F4' Doesn't Exist in Destination Table Field 'F36' Doesn't Exist in Destination Table
I understand the first one and can find references to this on the web but the F4 and F36 escape me.
All fields required do actually exist in the table so the real problem is elsewhere.
P.S. I now think that it may be that there are embedded commas in one or more of the text fields and that the number following the 'F' indicates the position of the field in the table. I will check in the morning or create the csv files using commas and quotes.
I haven't used FSO before, and it seems that the syntax is a little different than typical VBA for strings, but I can't quite figure out what I'm doing wrong here... I keep getting a "file not found" error on the "FSO.CopyFile..." line. I have printed all of my strings to the immediate window to check that they're printing correctly. It all looks good. My code is as follows:
'Copy file 'Set up strings for coding file names Dim FilePath As String FilePath = Me.txt_FilePath Dim FileName As String FileName = Me.txt_FileName
I have a report which will be printed on preprinted paper. On this paper a footer is printed with e.g. address info.
The report has a detail section with a height of 3,5 inch and canGrow=true.
The reportFooter contains totals. The size of this footer, and placements of the fields prevents printing data on the pre-printed footer of the paper.
But when the report has multiple pages, the report footer will be printed on the laste page, and the detail section is expanding to the bottom of the paper, overwriting the pre-printed footer. I need a max height of the detail section, or another solution.
