I am creating a database that needs to store a large number of pictures. I have a component that we're working on that needs 100 photos of specific details taken and stored.
I have created two separate tables.
One that includes four fields, ID, Component Number PhotoType and an attachment field.
The second table has ID,Photo Type and in this table I've coded 100 records detailing the photos I need. This is used as a lookup field for the first table.
What I would Like to accomplish from this point is to be able to add 100 fields onto the form for the user to click on the attachment and then save the specific photo that corresponds. How do i edit the control source of the attachment item on the form so that it is specific to one component number, and one phototype?
I have a Database with a field that holds several attachments. I want to make a command button for a form that will open the attachment window that pops up when you double click on the attachment in the table. attach_fig7(1).gif.. I'd like the above window to open when I click the command button.
I am working on a database that will notify technicians if they have orders that have been placed on back order. The technician can enter two kinds of orders, one for a specific job and one to replenish the stock in his truck. My manager has asked that I create separate reports for each kind of order and e-mail them to the technician. Is there a way to program Access to send an e-mail with two separate attachments?
I would also like the e-mail to send without the user needing to click the Send button. Is that possible? The database will be sending twenty plus e-mails each time the button is pressed, and I would like to avoid needing the user to click the Send button that many times.
I am working with access 2010 and I have a database that has attachments in the table. I have set up a query to in by database but every time I have a record with 2 or more attachments on it it shows that record as two different records in my query. I am wondering if there is a way I can make the query show one record and to be able to view attachments like in the original table.
I have an Access 2010 database connected to several SharePoint lists. I'd like to be able to print a report (based on a query) and add that report as a .pdf attachment to the record I was looking at when I generated the report.
At the moment I can save the report as a .pdf to a local file store, then upload it as an attachment, but is there any way to skip that step and add it to the correct record automatically?
We're a small shop building a modest database to keep track of our product listings on eBay. Two people on non networked computers are doing the data entry into cloned copies of our database. This includes attached photos for each record. At the end of each week, we want to combine the records created separately into the master database on my system.
It seems like it would be simple enough to just cut and the paste the records from the two databases into the identical master. The problem I'm anticipating concerns the attached photos.
Some strategies are to transfer the records from the data entry computers to the master database while keeping the attached photos intact.
Is there an effective, efficient way to set this up or would it be best to use the OLE format for the pictures instead of attaching them (which I prefer)?
I have a form with 15 unbound text boxes (daily temperatures) and what I am trying to do after entering the temperatures into the text boxes the user clicks an add button which will add 15 new records into the temperature table
I need to count records based on multiple criteria from two different tables. I have two tables (i.e. "tblTasks" and "tblTaskHistory"). The tables have a one-to-many relationship based on the "TaskID" field. "tblTasks" has a field called "AssignedTo" and "tblTaskHistory" has a field called "TaskStatus". I need to know how many tasks have been "reopened", the "reopened" status is located in the "TaskStatus" field in "tblTaskHistory". I need this count against a unique listing of employees which can be found in the "AssignedTo" field in "tblTasks".
I have a table (tbl Team Info) which contains names and codes for teams within my business (>400 records) and another table (tbl Process) which contains a list of high level tasks (30 records).
I need to create something where for each team name 9in tbl Team Info) I can map them to the tasks that they undertake (in tbl Process) and assign a percentage of time then spend on each task. Each team could map to several different tasks.
Here is the situation that I'm hoping that someone can help me with. I'm working with a database that tracks our condo units - from prospect coming into the system until we close them as a buyer. All the units are setup in the system so a salesperson will select from the units available. All that works fine when I create reports. The problem is trying to get the parking and storage on the same reports with the unit information. The problem is that there are multiple parking/storage units "attached" to a single unit and I cannot figure out how to get them to all appear on a single row of the report. As an example -
I have units A, B, C Parking units p1,p2,p3,p4,p5,p6 Storage units s1,s2,s3.
Unit A uses parking units p1, p2, p5 and storage unit s2.
Unit B uses parking unit p3 and storage unit s1.
Unit C uses parking unit p4, p6 and storage unit s3.
How do I write a query/report that would show:
Unit Parking Storage Unit A p1, p2, p5 s2 Unit B p3 s1 Unit C p4,p6 s3
I have three tables. Risk, Names and RiskAndNamesJunction table. I have the junction table because I have many to many relation (meaning many people can be connected to one risk and many risks can be connected to one people).
The problem is that If I make a query to show the people related to the risks, if there are many people for one risk then it will put the people in different rows. Meaning that for risk 2 I will have three rows, because there are three people connected to this rows. See the attached file!
What I would like to do is to have a query which (in case there are more than one risk owners) puts the second name in another column, the third name in another column and so on. So I will have only one row per risks.
The attached file is a dummy file, so there are only maximum three names per risk. In the real file the maximum is five names per risk. So I am talking about no more then five extra columns. (So I am talking about a query which would put the first finding in the first extra column, then the second item in the second and so on till five. It there is no third or fourth or fifht item then the columns remain blank).
Unfortunately I have to do this because our mother company works with excel and they are sticking to this format in excel.
I have a database with a table with company names, then a relationship to another table that shows that companies' address, but I also want there to be an address 2 and 3 and so on, and some of our companies have multiple sites.So what Im asking is how would you be able to show multiple data, on a sing record.
I need to generate 1 email with 3 attachments from an Access Db. These attachments are canned reports that are generated each week with fresh data.
I've done several searches and found a lot of good information here. Based on what I've read, I decided to output the 3 reports to a folder in My Documents and then automate Outlook to send the message.
I've used the output function to create the 3 files. No Problem, works well.
Then I found this code for automating Outlook. (Pasted below) I can get it to work (following either step 7 or step 8 below) but only if I include the attachment path in the SendMessage command.
Assuming the full paths are: C:My DocumentsReport1.snp C:My DocumentsReport2.snp C:My DocumentsReport3.snp
how do I modify the code to automatically attach all 3 files?
Any ideas? As always, thanks for taking the time to help, BeckieO
Sub SendMessage(Optional AttachmentPath) Dim objOutlook As Outlook.Application Dim objOutlookMsg As Outlook.MailItem Dim objOutlookRecip As Outlook.Recipient Dim objOutlookAttach As Outlook.Attachment
' Create the Outlook session. Set objOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
' Create the message. Set objOutlookMsg = objOutlook.CreateItem(olMailItem)
With objOutlookMsg ' Add the To recipient(s) to the message. Set objOutlookRecip = .Recipients.Add("Henny Penny") objOutlookRecip.Type = olTo
' Add the CC recipient(s) to the message. Set objOutlookRecip = .Recipients.Add("Lucky Ducky") objOutlookRecip.Type = olCC
' Set the Subject, Body, and Importance of the message. .Subject = "This is an Automation test with Microsoft Outlook" .Body = "Last test - I promise." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf .Importance = olImportanceHigh 'High importance
' Add attachments to the message. If Not IsMissing(AttachmentPath) Then Set objOutlookAttach = .Attachments.Add(AttachmentPath) End If
' Resolve each Recipient's name. For Each objOutlookRecip In .Recipients objOutlookRecip.Resolve If Not objOutlookRecip.Resolve Then objOutlookMsg.Display End If Next .Send
End With Set objOutlookMsg = Nothing Set objOutlook = Nothing End Sub
7. To test this procedure, type the following line in the Immediate window, and then press ENTER: SendMessage "C:My DocumentsCustomers.txt"
8. To send the message without specifying an attachment, omit the argument when calling the procedure, as follows:SendMessage
I have a database for which the user can "attach" supporting files. Currently I handle this by putting a button on the form. The button opens the folder related to the current record via windows explorer. The user is then free to open any file contained, or drag and drop new files if needed. It works reasonably well.
But there is no indication when you look at the form if there are any files attached or not.
First, if anyone can point me to a better way to handle this, (it bugs me that there are thousands of folders being created to each hold a file or two), I would appreciate that. The typical attachment is a message dragged and dropped out of Outlook.
Second, assuming I continue doing things this way, I am thinking I would like to add a listbox to the form. When the form moves to a new record, I would populate the list box with the name of any files found. I know how to do that, but to which event would I be attaching this code?
I am looking for a way to attach X amount of pictures to a record. I want to use a command button that opens an explorer to choose X amount of files. I don't want to just open a folder because that won't return the file location.
I am trying to find the VBA code that adds attachments currently stored in the database to an email. Currently, I have a button that will email the report refernced on my input form. My attachments are stored in a table, but I have built a query for my attachments that wil filter based off the referenced report on the input form. Below is my VBA code to email a report.
Private Sub Command587_Click() Dim stReport As String Dim stWhere As String Dim stSubject As String Dim NCRNum As String
How to view the file names of attached files in Access 2010 using a Web Database, specifically the Contacts Web Database that is a template in Access.
Currently it only shows one PDF icon for all my PDF files. I would like to be able to view the file names of all the PDFs in the attachment field. While I'm certain this can't be done within the same field as the attachment box (though would be nice), I would think it would be possible to populate another field with this information.
I have experimented with different things with no luck using a new standard database for testing purposes. The closest I've come was using the SubForm/SubReport; it actually gave me the values for the attachment... see in the picture below.
But even then, it did not work and gave a error: Invalid Control Property: Control Source
I'm sure this is here somewhere but I just can't find it.
I have a form where a selection of suppliers are selected, I then want to email each supplier a report attachment - headed up with their particular details - for them to complete and return.
I can use the SendObject to send one email with all reports attached, how do I split it up? Can I split it up?
Hi i am working with a database that contains customer information and sometimes files and attachments will need to be saved into the database. I presume i will have to save the attachments somewhere and then link to them, but i really haven't a clue where to start. Does anybody have any information about this or even know where i can look for information! Thanks in advance! Treasa
I currently have a code set up which sends an attachment from a drive on my computer to all the email addresses in a certain query. I would like to change the code so that I can add a button that will allow me to send an email with a specific attachment depending on their individual code in a table, e.g each person will receive a specific attachment. At the moment, the attachments are saved with the same file name as the person's specific code.The code I am currently using is:
Private Sub Command9_Click() Dim MyDb As DAO.Database Dim rsEmail As DAO.Recordset Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef Dim prm As DAO.Parameter Dim strEmail As String Dim strMsg As String Dim oLook As Object
I have a table called "tblTasks" and the table allows users to attach files to a task they wish to assign to a resource in their respective department. I have based a query on this table that returns the tasks associated with a given resource; however when the resource tries to view the attachment via a Subform - the Subform is based on the query - the attachment field does not yield any understandable results. The query is correct because all of the other data for the tasks show up perfectly; however the attachment, for some reason, is missing.
