Modules & VBA :: Detect No Records In A Table In DO UNTIL Statement
Nov 23, 2013
I have created several queries that in turn create a report. I am trying to write some VBA script to make them execute correctly, however am having trouble with the loop function.
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Qry_SubjectColleaguesByDivision"
Do Until Tbl_ReportSubject.RowCount = 0
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Qry_DataToTrainingReport"
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Qry_DeleteDataToTrainingReport"
Loop
DoCmd.OpenReport "Rpt_TrainingDue28Outstanding"
DoCmd.OpenQuery "Qry_ClearTrainingReport"
Qry_SubjectColleaguesByDivision populates Tbl_ReportSubject with the relevant colleagues. Qry_DataToTrainingReport calculates the report data for the first user in the list and copies to Tbl_TrainingReport, Qry_DeleteDataToTrainingReport deletes their record in Tbl_ReportSubject. Qry_ClearTrainingReport clears Tbl_TrainingReport.
My issue is getting the DO UNTIL statement to work. I am trying to get the loop to finish when there are no records in Tbl_ReportSubject.I know the data structure does not seem robust based on how the data is handled, however this is to do with a) Legacy issues, and b) data importing from other systems.)
I'm wondering if it's possible to create a Query / Macro / VBA or whatever works, to detect the duplicate records in a table and delete them with the push of a command button. Or, even to do this automatically when the database opens using an AutoExec macro or something ?. I'd like for one copy of each record to be left intact in the table.
I'm trying to create a function to update and amend records in a table.
The update part works and updates existing records with new data but I'm getting an error with the insert part.
Run time error 3078 The Microsoft Office Access database engine cannot find the input table or query 'FALSE'. Make sure it exists and that its name is spelled correctly.
Nothing called 'FALSE' so not sure what that means?
The code below opens a PDF selected from a form. Whatever document number appears in the textbox (FICNo) on the form is the document that is opened when the command button is clicked.It works but I would like to add a message box to say File not found if the document number in the textbox has no corresponding document in the folder (ScannedFiles).
Code:
Option Explicit Option Compare Database Private Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "shell32.dll" Alias "ShellExecuteA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal lpOperation As String, _ ByVal lpFile As String, ByVal lpParameters As String, ByVal lpDirectory As String, ByVal nShowCmd As Long) As Long Private Const SW_SHOWNORMAL As Long = 1 Private Const SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED As Long = 3 Private Sub CmdOpenDoc_Click() ShellExecute 0, "Open", "C:UsersDavid.BallDesktopScannedFiles" & Me.FICNo & ".pdf", vbNullString, "C:", SW_SHOWNORMAL End Sub
I have a client where a couple of (senior management) users have now got touchscreens attached to their laptops. I already have a facility for users to personalise the look of their forms in terms of colours and fonts (blended with the security options of which controls/forms etc are visible). The system is distributed as accde 2010 runtime.
I added a font size option which enlarges visible controls to cater for it, but it is intended as an occasional change (i.e. user goes into setup and configures the properties). However one user regularly works away without their touchscreen so they have to go in to the properties and reduce the font size and then when back in the office, enlarge it again.
I suggested just configuring everything to the larger font, but the non touchscreen users don't like it since they see less on the screen.
It is not a major hassle for the user but I thought it would be nice if I could detect if a touchscreen was attached and it would automatically adjust the font size.
Some code/api to detect if a touchscreen is attached? What would be really cool is if the code could detect based on the monitor the form is on, but I suspect that is a step too far!
I have a report that is fed by a parameter query. When a command button (Command23) is clicked a parameter box opens and the user enters a subsystem number. A report for that subsystem then opens.
I want to open the report with VBA and show a message if the user has failed to enter a subsystem number in the parameter box and just clicked OK.
The problem is I don't know how to refer to the parameter box and detect if it has been left empty before clicking OK. I first tried to use IsNull in an If statement with Command23.Value, but now realize it is the value in the parameter box I am after, not the "value" of Command23.
How can I change my code to detect if the parameter box has not been filled out?
Private Sub Command23_Click() If IsNull(Command23.Value) Then MsgBox "You did not enter a Subsystem", vbOKOnly, "No Criteria Entered" Else DoCmd.OpenReport "rptTESTInfoBySubsystem", acViewReport End If End Sub
I have developed an application using MS Access and MySql tables. The Access forms maintain/display orders that are stored in the MySQL linked tables. The MySql tables can also be updated independently by another process. The problem is that the Access forms do not reflect the backend changes when they are made by the other process.
For the moment I have implemented an on Timer process that causes a requerys for the forms every 5 seconds but this is not very elegant and causes the form screens to flicker.
Is there a better way I can automatically make the front end forms reflect changes to the back-end database when it is updated indepenently ?
I'm trying to run an if statment, on the records in a field (called "Current_Month"), in an existing table called ""Current_Months_Lag1_Data".
The IF statements work fine - and simply perform a different action for different data in "Current_Month".
I am having problems referring to "Current_Month", where I keep getting 424 (Object required) and 3420 (Object invalid) error messages, on the last line of code.
I have defined & identified the table in which the field is located, yet somehow cannot identify the field within that table. (I've already tried searching the web for similar problems under error messages 424 & 3420).
Function LAG_Forecast_03() Dim dbs As Database Set dbs = CurrentDb Dim Tbl As TableDef Set Tbl = CurrentDb.TableDefs("Current_Months_Lag1_Data") Dim FLD As Field Set FLD = Tbl![Current_Month]
I'm trying to run this very very simple code but I get a Run-time error '3450' Syntax error in query. Incomplete query clause. For sure the problem is the variable I used as Table parameter but I cannot understand where my error is :
Private Sub cmdRunCheck_Click() Dim strSQL As String Dim strTempTbl As String strTempTbl = "tblCheckDoubles" strSQL = "DELETE * FROM " & "'" & strTempTbl & "'" CurrentDb.Execute strSQL, dbFailOnError End Sub
What is clear is that if I use this line the Sub is working smoothly
strSQL = "DELETE * FROM tblCheckDoubles"
Please do not tell me that it is not possible to use a variable as Table parameter....
I have a table called login and inside that table is three columns: username, password and admin.
I have the username saved in a global variable called GsUser. How can i find the record in that table with the same Username as the string stored in GsUser and use that record for an if statement which sees if the value of the admin column is "Yes". Im trying to do it using VBA. Im not using a form where everything is bounded.
I have a form with two list boxes on it: listAllBANANA and listActiveBANANA
The listboxes are populated from tblBANANA. Active is defined by the tblBANANA field "ResponseDate" being Null.
Also on the form is a CloseBANANA command button. When pressed with no selection, it opens frmCloseBANANA to the first record. If a BANANA is selected in listActiveBANANA, the form opens to the selected record.
Now comes the tricky part: if a BANANA is selected in listAllBANANA, I first need to verify they have an Active BANANA selected, before opening the form. I've poked and tested and searched and cut and pasted my little fingers off with no joy. What I've deduced is that I'm either messing up the syntax of the DLookup or I'm incorrectly referencing the selected record. There's also the third option that I'm going about this in entirely the wrong way.
All other code below works. If I delete or comment out the line in red, I have no issues other than I may open up a blank form because I'm trying to close a BANANA that is already closed.
Code: 'If a BANANA is selected in Active BANANA or All BANANA, open Close BANANA to that record. If not, open form to most recent record Private Sub cmdCloseBANANA_Click() If Not IsNull(Forms!frmGUI!listActiveBANANA) Then
I have a sub form with staff records on it within a main form. I am trying to allow the user to select a record from the sub form and add it to a table, here is my code which, to me, looks correct. However it gives me an error saying "Syntax error in INSERT INTO"
Code: Private Sub Command3_Click() Dim dbs As Database Dim sqlstr As String Set dbs = CurrentDb Forename = Nz(Forms!frm_Capex_Submission!frm_staffSub.Form.shy_forename, "") Surname = Nz(Forms!frm_Capex_Submission!frm_staffSub.Form.shy_surname, "")
Dim dbs As DAO.Database, sql As String, rCount As Integer Set dbs = CurrentDb sql = "DELETE * dbo_InvPrice Inner Join (dbo_InvPrice Inner Join UpdatedPricing on dbo_InvPrice.StockCode = UpdatedPricing.StockCode ) ON on dbo_INvPrice.PriceCode = UpdatedPricing.PriceCode " dbs.Execute sql, dbFailOnError
In a situation where I imported an excel file with so many columns and split them into two temp tables and they are linked using a key.
the data has a fixed part lets say
Field1....Field2.....Filed3.....Field4...then Field5.....Field6.....Field7....Field8 is the same data range as Field9...Field10...Field11...Field12. I would want to split this data into multiple rows like this
Field 1 Field2 Field3 Field4 Field5 Field6 Field7 Field8 Field 1 Field2 Field3 Field4 Field9 field10 field11 field12 and so own...
I am building a simplified re-order point system - if inventory position drops below a certain level (the yellow level is this case) one or more purchase order lines has to be created in another table.
I have one table with the following field and data:
ItemId Red Yellow Green Multiple Inventory position 0001 10 30 50 5 45 0002 5 40 47 5 23 0003 11 20 30 10 5
I would like to generate new records (in another table) based on the above fields and three records.Basically the end result should look as the following:
The logic is quite simple - if inventory position is less than the yellow value new order lines should be created in multiple qty (based on the multiple field) until the aggregated value (in table 2) is above the green value.The priotization value should be based on the start inv (in tbl 2) compared to the values in red, yellow and green in tbl 1.
I have a parent table (tblLabels) and a child table (tblRevision) where the revision history for the parent table is kept.
The parent table is populated via an excel import and may have several records imported at once. Instead of having the user manually enter a new record note in the child table for each record imported into the parent table, I've created a form that collects the necessary data (date, person who added the record, person who authorized the record, and notes) and then creates a revision history for each new record.
This is what I have so far:
Code:
Private Sub cmdAddNotes_Click() Dim strSQL As String Dim RevisionDate As String Dim RevisionRevisedBy As String Dim RevisionDesc As String
[Code] ....
When I run the code nothing happens. No error, no new records create, etc. My suspicion is that I may need to use an INSERT INTO query instead of an UPDATE query, but I'm not sure how to go about matching up the foreign keys if that's the case.
MS Access 2013: I have two database tables as below:
tbl1_MainDB --- It has a field named as "City" where I get huge data for some city names. Sometimes This field may have some unknown/new names which are not listed in our 2nd table ("tbl2_RefrDB")
tbl2_RefrDB --- It's a reference table which has raw names for cities, and then standard names of their city and state in another fields.
Target --- I want to create a VBA prorgram (Sql query) which can look from tbl1_MainDB.[City] to tbl2_RefrDB.[Raw_City] field, and if found then pick the "Standard_State" and "Standard_City" record values from there, and update into the 1st table "tbl1_MainDB".
...if not found in "tbl2_RefrDB" table, then user can be informed & ask for updating the new/unmatched city record as a new record in this table.
I have a form with a listbox that displays the name of a table. Once the listbox item is selected, the table name is set to a variable called myFile. I want append the records from the table (myFile) into another table.
I am using Access 2010 and I currently use a command button on a form to add new records to a table using data that the user has entered into the form using the code below:
Although this is pretty self-explanatory, here is a key for reference:
Code: Private Sub cmdAddMet_Click() Dim DB As DAO.Database Dim RS As DAO.Recordset Dim strSQL As String Dim i As Integer Set DB = CurrentDb
[Code] .....
This works great but I would like to be able to pull in data from another database based off of Me.lstFacilities.Column(1, i) which is the FACILITY_ID field and is located in the other database's table. I thought about adding in another string variable(strSQL1) and opening up a separate recordset and database:
Code: Set DB1 = OpenDatabase("serverotherdb.accdb") strSQL1 = "SELECT [FieldName] FROM [tblOtherDatabase] IN 'serverotherdb.accdb'" Set RS1 = DB1.OpenRecordset(strSQL1)
However, I'm not sure where to start pulling in the data from the [fieldname] in the [tblOtherDatabase] when I start the loop below:
Code: For i = 0 To lstFacilities.ListCount - 1 If lstFacilities.Selected(i) = True Then RS.AddNew RS!RELATIONSHIP_ID = Me.lstFacilities.Column(0, i) RS!MEASUREMENT_PERIOD = Me.cboMeasure
Public Sub TEST22() Dim strSQL As String strSQL = "Update TNS Set [012013] = 0.5 * DLookup([012013], TNS, Division = 'COMMON') " & _" Where Division IN ('AK') " DoCmd.RunSQL strSQL End Sub
It shows me following error:nAccess doesn't recognize TNS as a valid field name or expression. Something is missing in this syntax.
I am reading through a table looking for duplicate values in the FullName text field. I want to store in a new table the duplicate records I find, storing just the MemberNumber and the FullName. When the VBA code runs and finds duplicates, the SQL statement to insert a new record into the Duplicates table asks for the value of LastMemberNumber and LastFullName when it already has the values and has displayed them in the message boxes! What am I doing wrong?
The code is:
Private Sub Command0_Click() Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Dim dbs As Database Dim LastMemberNumber As Integer Dim LastFullName As String
I have four tables: tblinvoice / tblinvparts tblquotes / tblquoteparts
when I open the tblinvoice form it has tblinvparts as a subform. tblinvoice has a listbox that lists quote numbers linked to vehiclereg. I have a button on the tblinvoice that will open a popup tblquoteparts continuous form linked to the quoteid on tblinvoice. These filtered records have a select button so I can select all or some.
I have now got stuck as I need a button on tblquoteparts popup that will copy the selected records from tblquoteparts and paste them into tblinvparts where quote (on tblequoteparts)=quoteid in tblinvoice.
In a nutshell, I would like to copy selected records from tblquoteparts to tblinvparts.I need to duplicate the records because only 10% of invoices are generated from a quote and the quote parts/prices may differ from the final invoice.
I have a database for work where I have a table of meters and a table of Faults which has a list of all faulty meters at one time. When a fault is repaired, I have a macro which updates the Meter Status to Working, adds a Fault Closed date, appends the record to the Closed table and then deletes it from the Faults table.
The user runs this from a form by clicking the Closed Fault button which activates the macro. I've added Echo on and off to hide that the form is temporarily closed while the Append and Delete queries are run and then it is re-opened again.
My problem is that the Form always opens at the first record in the Faults table. I would like it to open to the record which would have been next after the one that has been moved to the Closed Faults table.
Below is the code I have been using to test the Copying Meter Reference, closing and opening of the form and finding the correct record:-
Function CopyTest() On Error GoTo CopyTest_Err Dim strMeterRef As String DoCmd.SetWarnings False DoCmd.GoToRecord , "", acNext strMeterRef = Meter_Reference
[code]....
As you can see I am trying to go to the next record, copy the Meter_Reference by setting it to strMeterRef and then Find strMeterRef when the Faults form is re-opened.
I have a Macro embedded in a button which calls the above Function by using RunCode but nothing happens.
I want to change certain records of a query or table.Here I tried to change this in a query. Something is missing in my code.
Code:
Public Sub TNS_QUERY() Dim strSQL As String Dim x As Double Dim qdf As QueryDef strSQL = "SELECT TEST_TNS.[TestID],TEST_TNS.[Division],TEST_TNS.[Customer_Split],SUM([TOTAL_NET_SALES]) as [TNS] " & _ " FROM TEST_TNS " & _ " GROUP BY TEST_TNS.TestID,TEST_TNS.[Division],TEST_TNS.[Customer_Split]"
