You people are great - lots of help. What I need to know now is --- I input information regarding jobs that we do at my company. I have a customer table, employee table vendor table and invoice table - these are connected thru relationships but the job is eventurally closed. What expression or command do I use to move it to a closed table. I have to keep this information somewhere. Thanks!
currently on my db it stores data on various projects, and these projects are sorted by a status of on hold, on going, or finished. What im trying do is move only the projects that are finished but still keeping a record of them so we can view them in the future.
i was thinking maybe i could move the finished projects into another db? but not sure how to do, or is there a better way to achieve this?
Hi :) I am creating a program in VB.NET with an access 2003 database. This program will be in 2 physical locations. This is a program that sells tickets. At the end of the day I need to be able to get that days sales data off the remote location and update the main location with that information. This will be sales totals only. The user will plug in a thumb drive to move the data from one machine to the other. Due to the physical layout and other considerations this is the best option. The only action I want the user to have to do is to place the thumb drive in the USB port and hit the “down load” button. Then on the main location the user should be able to just plug in the thumb drive and hit up load. The database needs to be updated with the data from the remote location. What is the best way to do this? Thanks in advance.
I am exporting a table to a text file using a specification. Comma Delimited, no text qualifier. Now, I don't know if this makes a difference but the file is decent size (over 1000 records). The data within each record is exporting fine (about 78 fields) however, I have what is a major problem.
About a third of the way in the exported file are 70 records that have exported 60-70 records too early. Those 70 records are in order themselves but they just somehow jumped the gun(if that makes sense). This is a big problem because this file is going to be uploaded to the mainframe.
Just as an FYI the only VBA I have in my whole database is one pop-up message box. Everything else is run with macros. This one table does not have any primary keys since this is the table the information is oringally imported into and is moved from here. What I want is the information to look like it is in the table.
If anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate it. I'm going nuts and so is my mainframe programmer trying to figure out how we're going to get around this.
I have a simple database with a form that displays the contents of a table called Products. I want to be able to delete items from Products but these should be move into ProductsArchive table and I will then create a seperate form to view Products that have now been removed but were once currently live if that makes sense?
I would like to write some code that on the form when the user clicks on the delete button it will just move the data relating to that record into the ProductsArchive table.
I have read a couple of threads about what I am trying to do on other forums and I wanted your views please.
Basically I have to Forms, on form one I have a basic quote generator which will output a specific value in a textbox in form one. If that quote is accepted I would like that value to be feed through to a field in form2 which is linked to a table. I have a button "Accept quote", on form one which opens a new record in the table feeind form 2.
When pressing F11 to access the data base window, somehow I have docked it in an awkward position on the screen where as the top of the box containing the minimise, maximise and close button are not visible, how can I drag the data base window to the position I want i.e in the centre of the screen? :confused:
I have a form on my database called frmFloorRun in which a user inputs a line number on the main form, and then in the subform they enter what will be running on that line for that given day.
Everything seems to work beautifully except that when a user clicks on a line other than line 1 and clicks the refresh button, the first item scheduled to run on line 1 will move to whatever line the user is currently on.
To replicate this issue: simply open the database (i have slimmed it down so that only the floor run portion is included).
Open the form [frmFloorRun] observe the first line item on line 1 (that should be what the form opens to by default).
Now click on any other line by selecting it from the dropdown (yes I realize it is a combo box, but even when I remove that combo box and enter a line number manually, the issue persists).
After selecting another line, click refresh and that first line item from line 1 will move to whatever line you have selected. This is a huge issue for our company.
Also, I have included the report that is based on this form. It simply proves that the line item does not just move on the form - it moves in the report too.
The data I have in excel is basically everything about the "site". In access this cant be stored in one table.
What's the best way to move data from excel into access across multiple tables? I was hoping I could create a query and assign the columns from excel to the columns in the query. but I cant see an option for this.
I am treying to move data from an Excel worksheet to Access. My code is below. My program does not like my "Set rs = OpenTable("GL")" line
Option Explicit
Public Const gconConnection = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0; Data Source='C:usersc156281my documentsPLANPlan New.accdb'" Public rsData As DAO.Recordset Sub PostData() 'TryPostAgain: 'On Error GoTo BadPost
I want to reduce the first column to unique records, and have the second column listed on the same row. (I'm assuming I'll need Access to do it.) Is there a way to produce a table like this?
1 A B 2 A B C
The final result would need to be something I could put back into Excel.
Now what I am trying to get to happen is using a YES/NO box, Say i have a "part" in the parts table when i click the YES/NO box, to have the tick to say it has been sold, I want that line to move to the Sold Parts table. is this even possible?
I have this file that I created from work,(.pdf). I converted it into an excel spreadsheet. I am now trying to move the data around and am having trouble, I have tried to use ACCESS to do this but I cannot figure it out.
Is there any way I can flip the rows with the columns?
I am new to access and all of this and trying to create a database to record livestock (budgerigars) I have put in the reletive informnation for 2 generations but would like to beable to click on a record in forms view and for the grandparents to be automatically inserted. Something like a family tree.
Also I would like to be able to double click on a entry which shows as a parent in a form view, and for the database to go directly to that entry and bring it up onto the form.
I hope someone can help and that I'm making so sense
(anyone know a good book that would help me understand all of this)
Moving to new computer, both under Win XP pro, Access 2003. New computer is MacBook Air running Parallels. Transferred Access database via an external hard drive. Now the data shows up as Read Only. Is there a procedure to run down the cause and make the data accessible?
Hi there. I need a way to pass data between forms, and subforms. I have "form1" which simply contains a text box requiring the user to input an ID which I will call "PID". it also has a button which has the following code:
Private Sub Command5_Click() On Error GoTo Err_Command5_Click
Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String stLinkCriteria = "[PID]=" & Me.PID stDocName = "TestExam" DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
On the form testExam, I have a page control with 3 separate tabs. For each tab, I've embedded three separate subforms. All forms involved, including the container form (testExam) are bound to separate tables. All tables have one common field - PID I'd like the user to only have to input the PID on one form, and have it trickle down to all subforms.
In the FOrm_Current sub of the testExam form, I have the following code:
Private Sub Form_Current() [PID] = Forms!frmForm1.PID End Sub
Using this code, I am able to pass the data from Form1 to testExam, have the PID on testExam filled in and on tab 2. But tab 1 will not populate automatically. I have no idea why. I don't know where to start troubleshooting this. Please help.
Is this even a good way to pass data between subforms?
I have a form that users will use to add new records (customers).
There is a field named VAT_Registration_no
First of all i want some code to check for duplicates in that field only,before entering the next field.If the record exists i want to show a msgbox and set focus to the vat_registration_no field. Also I want the same thing to happen if the vat_registration_no field is empty.here is what i have tried:
Private Sub VAT_registration_no_AfterUpdate() Dim btest As Boolean If VAT_registration_no = "" Or IsNull(Me.VAT_registration_no) Then MsgBox "Please enter a Vat Registration No.", vbOKOnly, "error" Me.VAT_registration_no.SetFocus Else btest = True End If End Sub
and to all other fields:
Private Sub textfield_Enter() If Not btest Then Me.textfield.SetFocus End If End Sub
If I just press enter to go straight to the second field I dont get a msg. If I write something and delete it and press enter i get the msg but when I press ok the cursor goes to the next field. I want it to go to the vat_registration_no field again. And I also want this to happen even if dont write something and then delete it.
I have a form displaying the 11 fields of the parent/primary table using a selection from a combo box. I am using queries and vba code modules respective to form, combo box and command buttons. I have initial code that uses the two fields from the combo box selection to append same to a new parent/primary archive table. I now want to add to the append SQL the remaining fields to the parent/primary archive table. When I add the second sql string for the remaining fields to the same procedure and execute I keep getting 'null in primary key'. If I copy the primary record and paste same into the archive table it works.
Private Sub Command26_Click() On Error GoTo Err_Archive_Primary_Click
Dim strSQL As String Dim strSQL2 As String
strSQL = "INSERT INTO ARC_289325045 ([Survey Point ID], [Survey Area Detail], [Date On Site]) " & _ "VALUES ('" & Me.cboAreaDetailDate.Column(0) & "','" & Me.cboAreaDetailDate.Column(1) & "'," & _ "#" & Me.cboAreaDetailDate.Column(2) & "#)"
Hi. I have a question I'm hoping someone can help me with. I would like to take data from multiple columns and put the data into one column. Additionally, I do not want to exclude any data (union all) and I would like to group the resulting union by another field. For example:
So far I'm using the following SQL. What do I need to add or change to get my desired result of grouping the unioned depths by the 'sample event' field?
I appreciate any help anyone may have to offer. Thank you.
SELECT Depth1 AS Depths FROM Depth_Velocity_Substrate_Correct Union all SELECT Depth2 FROM Depth_Velocity_Substrate_Correct Union all SELECT Depth3 FROM Depth_Velocity_Substrate_Correct Union all SELECT Depth4 FROM Depth_Velocity_Substrate_Correct Union all SELECT Depth5 FROM Depth_Velocity_Substrate_Correct

The next step is to do the same for the child table and append related records to the child archive table.

I understand with Access 07 we no longer have DAP,s........ Well, I have never moved on of my apps to the web, currently they are on our LAN. Our offices out of town or in different locations access via "remote" hookup. Well, one of the bosses wants to have me develop a new app....but he wants it web based so our other locations and customers can have access to it....... suggestions on which way to go with something like this? Thanks
Hi, I have a delimma and am not sure how to proceed. It falls under the "You want what? When?" category. Basically, I have created an Access program with several (13) related tables and numerous forms. This program mimics an interview we are using for research and has a lot of VBA coding behind it with quite a few skip patterns, value checking, etc. During the testing phase, I was asked to allow the user to be able to go back and check a response to any previous answer at any given point in time. I hear numerous clicks of people running away from this question. This one has me frustrated and not too happy. I am wondering if there is some way I can show a copy of any form and the data contained within it for the present ID? IF it is a copy then the data, I presume would be locked and the user would not be able to change it. Also, I would want to bring the user back to the point where they were prior to going backwards. Feel my pain yet? Of course as I ponder this I can envision that they are going to want to change a value, because maybe a respondent "changed their mind" about a previous question. But, I am sure they would not want to work their way back to where they were, but want to jump back (forward), all the while I need to insure that any skip patterns that may have changed due to a change in data are followed and if a question that was answered before is now skipped then that data needs to be cleaned. I am concerned that as I begin to meander through this issue that I will have "duplicate ID" issues because as I move backward, possibly through several forms and tables and then move forward again the DB will think I am adding two items rather than changing the one. I.e., it will think I have two identical IDs because it already has one from the original pass and as it moves forward and runs through the automated saves that the second pass would represent a duplicate ID, thus crashing the program. I know this is a multi-pronged question, but I would like to hear some suggestions as to how others with more experience would handle this. I am grateful for your time in reading this and would be even more so for any responses.
