I tried to append one record to the end of the table (as end-of-the file indicator) but it's appending multiple records. Here is the code I have used to,
Table Name : MyTable
DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO MyTable (eof-Indicator) SELECT 'eof-101'
AS eof-Indicator FROM MyTable;"
I have a form with more records lines. For each record I have a button what will open a specific file if exist.
Dim strFoldername As String
strFoldername = Me.Scan
If Dir("M:Applications AccessCredit autorisationsDocuments" & strFoldername, vbDirectory) = "" Then
MsgBox "Missing document"
Else
FollowHyperlink "M:Applications AccessCredit autorisationsDocuments" & strFoldername
End If
To verify if the file exist, instate to press the button, I like to indicate on a new field [Ctrl_Doc], the presence of respective file. (Ex: True or False). I tried this, but doesnt work:
Private Sub Form_Load()
If Len(Dir("M:Applications AccessCredit autorisationsDocuments" & strFoldername, vbDirectory) >0) Then
[Ctrl_Doc]= True
Else
[Ctrl_Doc]= False
End If
Hi all
basically i have implemented something in form that says record 1 of 5 etc
the way this is implemented is done straight into the text box on teh form ...
="Application " & [CurrentRecord] & " of " & IIf([NewRecord],[CurrentRecord],Count(*))
The problem with above implementation is that when adding a new record sometimes i get say record 3 of 2 instead of 3 of 3
somettimes its 3 of 3 but when scrolling back i get 2 of 2
any ideas how i can implement this in a stable manner??
thanks
I have a table with rooms each room have a number of gust. I want to append each room many times equal to the number of gusts.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to open a form with some records taken from one table, then alter couple of data in it and after that most importantly to append current records into a different table. The reason I need to append is that I need to keep track on every occurrence on same fields.
It looks like this:
SerialNumber(Field 1), ServiceDate(Field 2), ServiceEngineer(Field 3)
Now suppose same serial number called again and asked for service, I need to still keep record on how many times this same serial number had service.
I have two tables "TABLEA" and "TEMP"
fields in both tables are
Cust ID (Primary key)
Cust Name
Address
Cheque No
Amount
Location
Zone
I need query when i click on command button on form
if "Cust ID" which is primary key in "TEMP" Table match with "Cust ID" from "TABLEA"
It will update the record in "TABLEA" if not then append the record
I have a query run that gives me a list of records that I view on a continuos form. What I want is to press a button and run a macro/Append Query to add a Single Summary record to another table.
For example my query spits out this data
Part # Quantity Serial Number
GO2 1 123
GO2 2 456
GO2 2 789
What I'm looking to get is
Part Number Total Quantity Serial Number 1 Serial Number 2 ..
GO2 5 123 456
I'm stuck on a couple of things.
1. Getting a new single row to append.
2. Getting Serial Numbers from several records to save on to a single record.
I'm currently setting up a data base in which I want to store price with a Japanese Yen Currency indicator. Is this possible? The Format allows for either Dollars or Euro. I like to use preferably ¥ or JPY as the currency indicator.

Is the record is already existing in access, but a few fields are blank, is there any way to import an excel file that just updates those blank fields for the specific record?
For example,
I have an excel file that includes files that are ready to ship out. My access database already has those file names, but does not have the shipping box number. Is there any way to import the excel file into my database, have it find those specific file names and update the shipping box number field? The excel file won't be adding any new records, just appending existing records.
I'd like to be able to filter through a .dat file like that (which is pretty much just like a .txt file as far as I can tell) and have that data appended into a table by way of a command button.
The annoying thing is that the data would have to be pulled out of the .dat file by position into columns like this:
Example line:
Code:
09 19192 00010212b1 5010570223
19192 = Ticket (Will be 5 digits long)
0001 = Quantity (Should be 4 digits long)
0212b1 - Location (Will be 6 characters long)
5010570223 = Article (Will be 10 characters long (not numbers))
by the way, let's say the .dat file will be in folder C:CENTURYWTERM.
I have a form which i use for a user to select an excel file they want to import and then click a cmd button to import the file into a table which works fine, however i want to append a date into a date field from an unbound txtbx before the file is imported so it will look something like;
id;date;excel info;excel info;excel info.
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?
I know when you see these you will think, "What are you doing?" So, I will tell you. I have to append certain records to another table multiple times. I have a field that stores the number of times the record needs to be appended. I thought that I could do it with SQL and a loop, but I can not get it. Any ideas?
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to create a query and/or macro to copy fields 6-10 of the current record seen in a form to fields 1-5 of the next, already existing record in the table? The typical append query wants to create a new record, but I want the fields to be copied to the next record which already exists. Thanks!
View 11 Replies View RelatedThis is a very simple problem most likely for the masses, but I am new to access. I have employees who enter will enter information about specific tests on electronics components into separate tables by a form. I know my method is poor, but this is how it works. I got assigned this database at my internship this summer because they ran out of thigns for me to do.....I've never even used access before, so as long as it works, they're happy. I have a form which which writes to a first table with 20 fields. I then have separate update queries which take the data in the first table and put it in all the other tables. Trust me, i know this is pretty much the opposite of the whole point of a relational database, but I am and was limited by time, for the size of the database they want, there was no time to learn about normalization etc etc. Sorry this is wordy, but THE QUESTION is......if they run multiple tests wtih the same information for some of the fields I have fields named "Run#, Unit#, Date" etc, even if there is records wtih the same information, hwo do i get it all to show. Right now, it seems to be rewriting over the same records. If they run 3 tests on unit 10 on August 1st, how do i get it so all those show up. I think its somethign wtih in the table, for the primary keys, changing the Index: No, Yes(Duplicates) Yes(No Duplicates) but I could be way off. Thanks, if the question doesnt make sense i'll try to rephrase it, I apologize I'm running on about 45 min of sleep:confused:
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have followed the development of Access from the early beginning, and even before the early beginning with databases like Q&A, Foxbase etc. I have survived with Access 2002 for a long time. However, the unavoidable string of events has given us more and more complex systems (for the noble purpose of making life easier, I assume). In my particular case I now have an up-to-date system (Access 2010) that I do no handle. My impression is that also the experts have trouble. I am now close to discard Access 2010 as too complex for my simple needs.
Here follows an example of a database that was easy to construct in Access 2002 but which I have major problems to reconstruct in Access 2010: The database in question shall keep track of expenses. The database have fields like date, project, type of merchandise, description of merchandise, price, name of store, notes, hyperlinks.
On opening the database I want a search screen (a form) that is exactly identical to the records I am going to produce (except that all fields are empty). On the search screen I put a search topic (e.g. the name of a store), and then initiate the search by pressing a fast key. The search result generates a number of records, I move on to the last one, I copy it, and on the copied record I do the necessary adjustments. The whole operation is done in a matter of seconds. The procedure is functional, and it gives me what I want.
I have made some "work around" procedures that bring me to the final touch, namely to copy/paste the record.
I have a form with a subform in Datasheet view. I want the user to double click a record in that subform and a query to ammend it to another table.

Hi,
I am trying to run an append query, but instead of appending the whole table, I would like to only append a single record.
I have an append query, and it works like a charm. I can also get it to work with prompting the user for a parameter (in my case LeaseId which is a primary key). When the user is prompted and enters the LeaseId it only appends the single matching record. Works like a charm.
However, I don't want to prompt the user for the paramater. I want the user to generate the LeaseId based on the selections in two combo boxes.
So far the I do get the right LeaseId, but I have no idea how to actually pass the LeaseId to the query. I've tried the following, but I know it's completely wrong.
stDocName = "approveLease"
DoCmd.OpenQuery stDocName, acNormal, acEdit, "[LeaseId]=" & Me.buildingCombo.Column(0)
Any ideas on how to actually accomplish this?
This is my first time posting to a forum so don't hesitate to correct me if I am doing something wrong.
I am trying to create autofill templates based on the worktype.
How do I append data to the current record only!
I have a table that contains all of the job information including a record autonumber.
I have made a form using this table and it includes a subform for charge items from a separate table.
My users are complaining about having to key in every line item and want the form to autofill the subform for charge items based on the worktype field.
I have written an append query which is correctly extracting the worktype field and updating the charge items fields but it is doing so for every record with the same work type. I just want it to update the current record I am looking at.
hello
does anyone know how to append a string to an existing text field so i have a record and the value of this text field is say "abc" i run an update query which pulls the string "def" out of another table and then now the value is "abcdef"
I have tried the following sql
UPDATE TBL_TmpSubmission
LEFT JOIN TBL_PropertyType ON TBL_TmpSubmission.PropertyType = TBL_PropertyType.PropertyType SET TBL_TmpSubmission.ErrorCode = [TBL_TmpSubmission].[ErrorCode] & "property"
WHERE (((TBL_PropertyType.PropertyType) Is Null));
which I expected to append the string "property" to the field which already had the value "measure" but it just overwrites the string having the same effect as
UPDATE TBL_TmpSubmission
LEFT JOIN TBL_PropertyType ON TBL_TmpSubmission.PropertyType = TBL_PropertyType.PropertyType SET TBL_TmpSubmission.ErrorCode = "property"
WHERE (((TBL_PropertyType.PropertyType) Is Null));
i have a temporary table in my db which is checked for errors, that is to say there are three fields in a further lookup table and three of the fields in this temporary table TBL_TmpSubmission are checked for nonexistent property types, fuel types and measure types by queries with the structure given above
it all has the effect i need of filling in this error code field so the error types can be displayed using a later select query - except when there is say a measure error AND a property error because then one query just overwrites the effect of the other
what i want is to be able to use say letter codes "P", "F", "M", append them to one another and then in my later select display that code so the user can see all the fields which need to be corrected

View 4 Replies View RelatedHi, basically what i want to do is append a record to a table using vba. I would like to take two values from my form (productID, supplierID) and insert them into a table (supplierProductsTBL) under the same headings. I've constructed an sql statement but am getting the following error:
runtime error '3346'
number of query values and destination fields are not the same'
I think this happens because the table also contains an autonumber field (supplierProductID) and i'm not referencing this in my sql statement (below):
mySQL = "INSERT INTO SupplierProductsTBL ( SupplierID, ProductID ) VALUES ('" & SupplierID & "'), ('" & ProductID & "')"
i wuld just get rid of the autonumber field but i need this.
Any help on this would be appreciated, cheers mark.
I have a table that is filled based on selections that a user makes in combo boxes on a form. I am having trouble trying to figure out the best way to prevent duplicates from being inserted in the table when I do the append query part.
Since the table is filled based on the various selections the user makes I dont have a primary key or unique field.
Can someone help me figure out the best way to do this append/update queries to prevent duplicates. Also if you have a strategy for setting up some sort of unique or primary key for fields that could all be the same yet in the table only 1 record will show, no duplicates.
