I have 4 tables with a field that holds a "batch number" there can be many batch numbers in these fields.I want if possible to replace a batch number from all my tables that contains that data and replace it with another batch number in one go. is a macro the only way to do this.I would like a macro that asks me the batch number to replace and then asks me the number to replace it.
View RepliesI am trying to construct a system in access where I can have a user type in a part number, revision of a part, job number, serial number quantity, and generate a serial number based on the quantity that they need.
I am getting hung up on even how to construct the tables effectively to accomplish this, let alone the forms, queries, etc.
The numbers have to be in the following form. XXXX-XXXX
For an example:
I have part ABC and I need 5 serial numbers.
I need to be able to create a batch of serial numbers automagically that reads like:
9001-0001
9001-0002
9001-0003
9001-0004
9001-0005
Then for the next part XYZ I need 3 serial numbers. It would be constructed like this:
9002-0001
9002-0002
9002-0003
With the goal of eventually being able to search a part number and revision, or a job number and return all serial numbers assigned to that.
Is this possible in MS Access?
This code is supposed to loop around a directory of photos (named after a project), and then copy a new photos (from another directory) to this folder, numbering them and the logging them in a table tphotos.The first time a copy photos to a new directory the code works fine. And I think I had it working fine before, but now when I copy photos to a pre-existing directory that has already photos, it only overwrites the first photo, instead looking for the last photo and attributing the new photo number n+1.
I've done debug.print in the code, and it looks like is not going into If NewFileName = f1.Name, therefore doesn't compare the newfilename with the files in the folder.
Code:
Private Sub cmdAddPhoto_Click()
Dim fs, f, f1, fc, s
Dim fDial As FileDialog
Dim SourcefileName, destDir, FileExt, NewFileName, prjID As String
Dim intSel, FileNumber As Integer
Dim varSelFile As Variant
Dim rsPhoto As Recordset
Dim myDB As Database
[code]...
I've created some code to make a backup of my database backend. I've tested it and it seems to work fine, I just have some questions about it's use. Here's the code:
Code:
Public Sub backupBackend()
Dim TestFile As String
Dim strReplFile As String
Dim copyFromLocation As String
Dim copyToLocation As String
copyFromLocation = "S:Trust 2 AnalysisData"
[code]....
It will be triggered by a button push. It creates a batch file to do the copy operation and then delete itself.
In an ideal world I would schedule the backup at a safe time through the Windows scheduler, but our IT department won't allow me to do so.
The concern I have is that we could potentially press the backup button while a user is performing an action that writes/modifies data. If this were to happen would my backup potentially contain corrupted data?
If so, is the workaround to simply press the backup button when nobody is using the database?
I want to create a batch file that will be used in a RunApp macro command to open up another database.

Is there a way to create some sort of an EXE or BATCH file in any Windows Explorer folder, that executes me a specific Excel Macro?
My problem is that I got several files split up by Departments, updated every day.
So far I have to open each file and update the format.
It would make my life much more easier if I could just run a file that opens each file and applies a format to them.

View 14 Replies View Relatedcreating the VBA code to find the total number of tables in my database.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have "Master" table with fields "Job No" and "Revision No". Both together is a primary key, so that combination of both cannot be duplicated. I have 100 other tables to be related with referential integrity(+update&delete) to Master for both fields. Apart from Job No and Revision No, all 100 tables have different set of fields which is why I had to come with so many tables.
Due to 32 limit rule, I had to come up with workaround method to have all 100 tables in the relationship. So, I created 5 other SubMaster1, SubMaster2, ...., SubMaster5 which are related to Master with relationship with referential integrity (+update&delete). Then I assigned 20 tables to each SubMaster so that 20 tables are related to each SubMaster table.
Whenever I create new record in Unit, the new record is generated in each SubMaster using update query for each SubMaster table. I have all the forms and necessary query laid out. The only missing part is being able to duplicate a record. I have limited knowledge in VBA, but I should be able to modify it to address to my requirement.
I want to copy a given record in Master, SubMasters and 100 tables as a new record. I need this feature so that I can select certain Job No and Revision No and copy that as a new Job No(assigned manually in a form) and 0 as the revision number. Possibly a button which will ask for new job number and copy everything from the active Job No and Revision No to a New Job No and "0" Revision No. The existing record may not be there on all 100 tables for the given Job No and Revision No. If it is there, then copy otherwise ignore for each of the tables.
I have a table "ItemList" which lists all the unique name of the 100 tables.
I have this working query:
Code:
INSERT INTO TB_SISTEMAS ( LOGIN, SISTEMA, PERFIL, DATA )
SELECT Left([dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.LOGIN],255) AS LOGIN, dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.SISTEMA, Left([dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.PERFIL],255) AS PERFIL, dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.DATA
FROM dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS
WHERE (((dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.SISTEMA)<>"ACTIVE DIRECTORY") AND ((dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.DATA)="2014-03-23"));
But Iwant to be able to use a set of data to be used in the Replace Statement, so I create a table to add each string I would like to have replaced by "nothing", and trying to make the replace query to look there in order to find what to replace.I also created a table where I will list the systems that I dont want in the select, so I removed the "ACTIVE DIRECTORY" and replaced by the colum that have the list of system I dont want listed.This is the result:
Code:
INSERT INTO TB_SISTEMAS ( LOGIN, SISTEMA, PERFIL, DATA )
SELECT Replace((Left([dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.LOGIN],255)),[PREFIXOS_E_SUFIXOS]![Valor],"") AS LOGIN, dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.SISTEMA, Left([dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.PERFIL],255) AS PERFIL, dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.DATA
FROM dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS
WHERE (((dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.SISTEMA)<>[SISTEMAS_EXCLUIDOS]![Sistema]) AND ((dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.DATA)="2014-03-23"));
The thin is that this keeps asking me to enter the parameter value for "PREFIXOS_E_SUFIXOS!Valor" and for "SISTEMAS_EXCLUIDOS!Sistema"

Is there a code that will replace the empty fields by shifting the bottom fields up for access? I am planning to write a code that will delete unnecessary items in my database, however, that will cause the database to have "holes" in it.
