I would like to ask if it is possible to use the contents of a table as a comparator? For example, I have this column in my table that has the schedules of the professor, if the professor for example failed to login within fifteen minutes after his/her supposed start of class a message will be displayed on the screen notifying that the professor has not yet logged in.
View RepliesI need to migrate the contents of a table from Access Jet or Ace to SQL Server.
The table has 2 fields, an integer and a BMP image ex
Field1 Field2
1 BMPimage
2 BMPimage
3 BMPimage
4 BMPimage
If I manage to export the images to files like 1.bmp, 2.bmp, 3.bmp, 4.bmp etc I can then import them into SQL Server.
I would like to open an Excel workbook from MS Access and clear cell contents, or just delete some records in a specific worksheet.
If you open the test workbook, cell contents in RAW need to be deleted by calling from Access.
I have produced some code but it's partially working.
Code:
Sub TestFileOpened()
' Test to see if the file is open.
If IsFileOpen("test.xls") Then
' Display a message stating the file in use.
MsgBox "File already in use!"
[Code] ....
If you put this in a standard module in access, the function works, but the part that doesn't work is where it says "activesheet". It somehow tries to recognize it as a variable, but it's not going to be a variable.
I am very new to access less than 1 week since i started trying to build an horse racing database, i am trying to link data from 2 different sources via the horses name however one source displays this with the horses country of origin in parenthesis foe example FRANKEL(GB) and the other source displays the name as just FRANKEL, to be honest i haven't yet tried the link but guess it will fail.
I am therefore looking to get rid of the parentheses and their contents from an access table field and create another field without them.
In Excel i use the formula B1:
=TRIM(REPLACE(A1,FIND("(",A1&"("),FIND(")",A1&")")-(FIND("(",A1&"(")-1),"")) and that works fine.
I guessed the solution for Access would be newname:
TRIM(REPLACE([frhorse.NAME],FIND("(",[frhorse.NAME]&"("),FIND(")",[frhorse.NAME]&")")-(FIND("(",[frhorse.NAME]&"(")-1),""))
But this doesn't work as in returns undefined function "FIND" in expression error.
I am trying create some code that checks if the contents of the status field in a table is "Authorised" where the ID = something specific for multiple records. If all records witht the specific ID are "Authorised" Then generate a new record in another table. Where to start, perhaps a Dlookup?

sorry for the title. i didnt know what to write.
this is the situation:
i have a form where it populates a table in access (ssmdata) from an oracle table w_ssm_data). this works perfectly.
Then the form read the hole new table in access (ssmdata) to update a specific field.
Problem:
If i open the access table (ssmdata) it is sorted by the flight fields. However, when the form reads the table in order to update the specific field the table seems to not to be sorted by the flight field.
More info:
The ssmdata table in access has many primary keys (flight, departure,arrival,caterer,frequency and aircraft).
If i take a look to the W_ssm_data table in oracle it is not sorted by flight and it is sorted in the same way the form is reading the ssmdata table in access.
example:
table in access:
flight dep arr caterer aircraft frequency
1 a b a 111 67
1 a b a 222 134
2 c s c 111 5
table in oracle:
flight dep arr caterer aircraft frequency
2 c s c 111 5
1 a b a 111 67
65 t h t 252 1
when the update step starts it reads the access table as it looks in oracle. but if i open the table in access it looks sorted by flight.
thx 4 your hlp again, max
I've got some code that loops through a record and copies the non-null fields to another record. This is the partial code:
For Each fld In tdf.Fields
If Not IsNull(Forms!contact_lookup![Contact_sub subform1].Form(fld.NAME)) Then
strSql = "UPDATE tbl1 SET tbl1.[" & fld.NAME & "] = '" & Forms!contact_lookup![Contact_sub subform1].Form(fld.NAME) & "' " & _
"WHERE tbl1.[FC_APN] = '" & Me.txtApn & "';"
DoCmd.RunSQL strSql
End If
Next fld
This works fine until it encounters a field whose contents has a reserved character, like a single quote (" ' ") in it, for example, "What's the what." At that point the SQL thinks there's a " ' " missing in the statement, and I get an error 3075 (syntax error: missing operator).
Basically i'm trying to link Access to Outlook to retrieve emails , When using the wizard to link outlook folder to Access it fails, i've been informed that this is due to the version of Access they have installed which is a ThinApplication.

Any way in MS Access to read the TOC data from an Audio CD? It is I believe in the lead-in part. I have a music database, and would like to be able to read the track data directly from the CD (Title, artist, timing), without having to type it all in again.
I know this can be done, because my CD labelling software extract the data automatically - but can Access do it?
I have some code to create a table of contents/index for a report which has "chapters" which can be added or dropped depending on whether we choose to stock something or not. And I'm getting the strangest issue. The very first "chapter" starts fine on Page 1. But the next item we sell (Chap 2), then starts on Page 3, instead of Page 2. Here's what's strange. Every other item is then one page off. Below is my code.
Code:
Option Compare Database
Dim db As Database
Dim TocTable As Recordset
Dim intPageCounter As Integer
Function InitToc()
'Called from the OnOpen property of the report.
[Code] ....
The InitToc fx is called upon the opening of the pricebook, the UpdateToc fx is called upon printing. There's something in here where I think I'm calling the functions incorrectly, but I'm not sure quite what the error is.
This may seem a very simple question, but I really don't know how to do it. Basically, I want to MessageBox contents of a table with a button. I have a table called Map, and has two fiels: Column Number and Description. When a button is pressed, then I want a messagebox to come up and show the column number and the description of a single field. Although I know it is very wrong, here is the code I used for this (r![column Number] = 4 is meant to be the forth column number in the table):
Dim d As Database
Set d = CurrentDb
Dim r As Recordset
Set r = d.OpenRecordset("Map")
r![column Number] = 4
MsgBox "Column No: " & r![column Number] & ". Description: " & (r![Description])
By the way, there are seperate buttons for seperate fields. It is DAO as well
Thanx in advance
Hope this works, The table is as follows, ish
Name1 y/n1 y/n2 y/n3 y/n4 y/n5
a...........y......y....n.......n.....n
b...........n......n....y.......n.....y
c...........y......n....n.......n.....n
d...........n......n....n.......n.....y
e...........y......y....y.......n.....y
f............n......y....n.......y.....y
g...........y......y.....y......y.....y
what i need to be able to do is take a form/query answer some questions, y/n1= y/n2= y/n3= ......
Then off the back of this be able to pull out the correct item from column name1.
But i don't need an exact match on all columns. If i am only interested in y/n2=y i need to display all matches
My head says the following If y/n2=y and y/n3=y Then Name1 = e and g
or another example if y/n2=y and y/n4=y and yn5=y Then name1 = f and g
if a y appears in more columns it doesn't matter but it has to be in all those columns i am looking at
can anyone suggest the simplest way forward on this.

I have a parameter that I need to get a table contents between dates. In the query:
Birthdate: XXTable: criteria as follows: Between [Enter Start Date] and [Enter End Date:]
When run it gives me the Error - ! This expression is type incorrectly, or its too complex to be evaluated. For example, a numeric expression may contain too many complicated elements. Try simplifying the expression by assigning parts of the expression to variables
I have tried almost everything. The formatting of the Birthdate is x/x/xxxx or shortdate. Will this affect the input thus affecting the outcome of the query.

I have a situation where I have a report which I will generate to print our companies pricebook. I need an index/table of contents for customers to go to the page where a product is to look up prices. The problem is that we add and subtract products on a consistent basis.
So a new product will get added, but of course, to run alphabetically, there's no way to insert it, then renumber the pages for it to be easily found.to use a maketable query, which sorts all of the products alphabetically. Each time it is run, it will delete the previous table. I then need to have an autonumber field created to create my "page numbers". Yes, each time the pricebook is run, products can and will oftentimes get new page numbers.
So my thought is to have a macro run which creates the autonumber field to the table. This will then be the basis for the form, which will in turn utilize the "page number"/autonumber field to both serve as page numbers in the report. And of course, the table which is created each time will be the "table of contents".
