Numeric Field Overflow

Jul 12, 2006

Guys, When I generate an excel sheet through vb.net code, I get a Numeric Field OVerflow when the values generated contain a date!

my database is ms access...

The problem is that each excel sheet generated has different columns, depending on what columns the user selects to view. for example: if the user chooses name, age and date, the date would appear on the 3rd column, if the user chooses name, nationality, age, family name, date, then the date would appear on the 5th column, etc.....

Does anyone know the way around this??
thanx!

NUMERIC FIELD OVERFLOW!!! <Gah!!>

Sep 13, 2005

Hi,
I'm running an Append Query from an Excel <linked> file to a table in access. From what I can tell, the first filed is overflowing with a linked filed numeric of 'Double'. You can't change linked table fields. However when I first link the Excel file, the Append works... :D only when I reboot the PC and start the next day's work, do I get this message... :eek:

1. Should I include in my MACRO an import to a table and then append...? :mad:
2. Is there a trick in the append query I can use to prevent the error...? :rolleyes:

Thanks
MD

Transferspreadsheet - Numeric Field Overflow

Jun 10, 2005

I have been using a transferspreadsheet cmd for a while now in Access 2003, but when I recently split the database so that the table the import is going to is now linked rather than residing in the same mdb file, I get a numeric field overflow error. I manually made all the values in the import 0, converted it to text, but got the same error.

When I imported the table back into the file, rather than having it linked, the transfer worked fine.

Can you not run the transferspreadsheet command on a linked table or am I missing something?

I am using a linked Excel sheet that has formulas linked to fields in Access. Some of my cells (formulas) don't have any information that is being auto populated, therefore empty; however, Access is reading the cells and giving an error message "Numeric Overflow".

Does anyone have a solution to this?

Thanks for your help.

Numeric Overflow Error

May 24, 2006

I am linking excel spreadsheets. I am using a spreadsheet as the source to update a database table. I am running an append query.

I have checked all the fields and it seems that they are correct.

It will run one time and then the second time it will produce this error.

If I change something in design view and run it prior to saving it - it will run.

As soon as I close the query and reopen it to run it - it errors.

I read somewhere about optimization and that it may be causing it.
There may be VBA or macro code to assist with this?

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
Bill

General :: Forms And Queries In One ACCDB File - Path Setting To Linked Table File

Oct 5, 2014

I've got the forms and queries in one .accdb file and my tables in a separate .accdb file. The forms file links to the tables in the tables file. The tables file resides in a folder called simply enough C:acc_tables and thats where i browsed to (obviously) when i set up the linkage.

One of the users does not wish (for whatever goddamn reason) to create a C:acc_tables file to stick the tables file in , and wants the tables file in some other folder.. Unfortunately this user does not have the skills to delete the existing links and re-link to the tables file after putting it in the folder he wants.

Where in the file that holds the forms and and queries do i find the path setting to the tables linked file? Can it be changed without deleting links and then re-linking?

Linked Excel File - Excel Date Field Translated To Text?

Mar 23, 2006

I have an excel file linked to a table in Access. Several fields are date data types in excel but are showing up as text fields in Access.

My real goal is to do a comparison between two tables, but only if the date of the one piece of data is newer than the other. I had planned on comparing the two date fields but even though I have formatted the date fields in my excel file to be "Date", when I look at the design view of my table it is showing up as "Text" and therefore I am unable to do this comparison.

I'm not sure if it's just something that I'm missing but maybe someone else knows an easy fix to this. I know this is probably a simple question, but I did search the forum and didn't find a thread that specifically dealt with this issue.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Tables :: Numeric Field In A Table - Setting Field Property?

I have a numeric field (long integer) in a table. I've set the format to fixed. No matter what I set the decimal places to, auto, 0 or 2, when I enter a value of 0.71, it displays as 1.00

In my form, I've also set the field property to fixed, but it displays the value as 1.

Forms :: Sort Numeric In Alpha-numeric Text

Mar 11, 2014

I have a text field having data i-e HO-1, HO,2, ACW-25 and so on. The field name is nBadge_num and is Unique. The data in this field is sorted automatically like 1, 10, 11, 12, 13, 2, 3, 4, 5...because this is the text field.

The number on the form is automatically generated, when the user type HO- for example on field exit event. The last number will generate like HO-5.

Code for automatic number generation is:

Dim dbs As Database, rst As Recordset, Response
Set dbs = CurrentDb
Set rst = dbs.OpenRecordset("SELECT Max(Right([nBadge_Num],Len([nBadge_Num])-" & Len(Me.NBadge_Num) & ")) AS MaxNo " _

[Code]....

My problem is when the number is generated it give HO-5 instead of HO-14, How can I sort the numeric part of the field ?

Numeric Field Entry

May 18, 2005

Trying to do the following:
Having built a table of customers, I need to have an automatically generated ID number for each that IS IN ORDER - which rules out Autonumber and it's gapping tendencies. So, I've developed a new CustID field and set it to "Number", and now just need to figure out how to get it to pull the previous entry and add "1" to it. So it would look like this:

CUSTID NAME
1 Bob
2 Fran
3 Phil
4 Tom
5 (ready for next entry)

Any way to use a function I don't know about, or program some type of solution? Thank you

Wildcard On A Numeric Field

Jun 28, 2005

I have a query that prompts with a parameter box for the field Contributor_ID. Contributor_ID is a numeric field & Key and I use it to allow the user to print a report based on which Contributor_ID value the user enters. This works fine. However, I would like the user to have the option to enter * and then have the report include ALL the contributor IDs. I have done this before on a text field without a problem, however is this not possible on a numeric field as it is not working? I'm trying not to have another version for the ALL option.

If this is not possible, are there any alternatives?

Can't Edit When Using Linked .xml File?

Mar 8, 2006

I have just finished my first access database, well almost, one problem- I can't edit or type anything on my database when I am using a link to an xml workbook. If I just import the xml file to use on my database I can edit and save it but not when I used a linked xml worksheet. If I change the xml file entries in Excel, the changes appear on the linked database but it won't work the other way around - I can't even type anything in any of the fields. What have I done wrong and how can I remedy this problem? Any help would be much appreciated.

Enter Text Into A Numeric Field

May 14, 2005

I use Access as my grading program at school. Right now, if I want to excuse a student for an assignment, I delete that record.

What I would like to do is put an "X" or some other string into a field that is numeric and Access would ignore that score when computing the average.

A longshot, but I thought I would ask.

Thanks.

Make A Field That Was Numeric / Alphanumeric

Feb 5, 2015

I have a database I have worked on for the sister company of the place I am employed.I have a field I am trying to make alphanumeric that has been numeric. (PO Number on the main form). I had make it alphanumeric a couple of months ago, but it disabled the Edit Customer Information button on the bottom right of the form to where I cant enter shipping addresses and things like that. It should be able to enter multiple shipping addresses.

I need making the PO Number field button alphanumeric and making sure it doesnt mess-up the Edit Customer Information button. I have attached both versions of my database. The GM at the sister company would also like me to create a Spin button where you can take an old record and keep all of the previous information on it, except it gives it a new Work Order# and you can change the date to something newer.

Linked Excel File In Access

Feb 26, 2006

I am using Excel and Access 2002. I have linked an excel file in Access. It is my understanding that if I add a new record in Excel it will automatically add it to Access and vise-versa. This is not working for me. I can add to one or the other and it will not display in both excel and access. I can manually add to both and access will display all data from both the database the table in access and the linked excel file. Any Ideas?

Thanks!
Terry
