Queries :: Exporting Query To A Text File?
Jun 15, 2013I'm trying to export query results to a text file and it keeps giving me a "too few" parameters error.
View RepliesI'm trying to export query results to a text file and it keeps giving me a "too few" parameters error.
View RepliesFirst I'm developing in Access 2010. I am struggling with code that is supposed to create a text file and populate it from a query. The Query "cbt_Candidate_Export_Temp" is working fine but I keep getting the error in the second argument:
"Run-time error '3625': The text file specification 'cbtTab' does not exist... "
DoCmd.TransferText acExportDelim, "cbtTab", "cbt_Candidate_Export_Temp", "denali
bccdatabasesBCCCBT_Export" & strFileName & ".txt", True
What object is "cbtTab"? I didn't write this base code and I can't find it nor do I know how to create "cbtTab" ....
I am able to successfully export data from an Access 2010 Query to a Tab Delimited Text file without difficulty.My problem is that the Query includes several 'tick boxes'. The resulting text file shows the text boxes as 1 or 0 as appropriate. What I actually require is a Y/N result.To achieve the required Y/N result requires some fiddly find and replace editing which is complicated by the fact that the query also contains telephone numbers incorporating 1 & 0, This then requires further editing of individual records to convert misplaced Y/N back to 1/0. Is their any way that one can force the export to convert text boxes to Y/N rather than 1/0.

I have a query that returns about 3500 records (and runs very well I have to say). the issue comes when I attempt to export that queries results to a comma seperated text file. It gives me the message that the field is too small to accept the amount of data..bla bla bla... I've looked this up and it mentions stuff about memo fields and issues with that, but I don't have any memo fields in any of the tables that this is pulling information from. Does anyone have a clue why this would be happening...please help..this is urgent.
Thanks - J

I am having trouble exporting a query from ACCESS 2010 to a .txt file. I have a field in the middle of the query, and I cannot get the data of this field unless I put it in the end of the query (as the last field). I think I must be doing something wrong, but I don't known what may that be.
View 7 Replies View RelatedHello,
I am exporting a table to a text file and I am having a problem with decimal places. I have got a column which is showing a number with differing number of decimal places, between 0 & 3. The column is set to Data Type decimal with auto decimal Places setting.
When I export this to a text file, it automatically changes the field to be 2 decimal places. Is there anything that can be done about this? If I export it to an excel file, the formatting stays the same, but the table will be too big to export to excel at some point so I can't do this.
Kind Regards

I have searched the forum, and nothing seems to work!
I have a query that runs some fields off a table. I have ordered the query and the tables alphabetically by clicking the A-Z button when inview.
This is all very well, but when i click the export button on one of the forms, it exports it fine, but the data is not in order.
I am using acess 2003 with an unrealational database (no relationships are reequired)
Please Help!
I am not sure if this is possible or not, I am trying to export a large table that includes a text qualifier "". I have managed to change all the fields in the table to text. the problem id that I need to supply the data to an outside source that wants the qualifier to also be included for null fields (they receive other files not processed from Access with this included).
I was just after info about if it is possible or I am wasting time trying to come up with a solution (this will be done on a regular basis so I don't want to have to export the table to another software package to perform the task.
Thank you for any assistance.............
In my database I would like my report to run every 30 seconds and export that data to a text file. I am not sure if that is best with a Do While or Do Until.
What I am looking to accomplish is to populate a map with data from the data base report. it needs to rerun the report and write the text file every 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Any help with the coding would be greatly appreciated.
I need to export data from a table in Access to a fixed length record text file and would like to find out how to export a number field into this text file with leading zeros.
The text file requires this 999999.99 and right justify and zero fill. My question is this: how can I zero fill from the table to the txt file? I went through the export wizard and couldn't see how to do it.
Thanks
Ok, I have a question. It might be a ridiculously simple question. Also, i'm under the impression that I may have to learn some VB, which i'm okay with. I've never really used MS Access, it has sat neglected on my desktop for a number of years and now I am starting to see just how powerful it is. By the way, I'm Jamie, nice to meet you all :) Now, onto the questionWhat i'd like to do is take the following database (for example)field1 = namefield2 = locationfield3 = favourite movieNow, i'd like to generate the following text from this database, for each entryDear <<name>>I once knew a man from <<location>>Was never really much of a <<favourite movie>> fan.Optionally, i'd like it to store the text for each seperately generated document in a file named <<name>>.txt, but that isn't needed urgently.It reminds me of a mail merge I learned to do a few years back in high school using appleworks (I am assuming it was appleworks).Anyway yes, thankyou in advance for any help with this.Jamie

And i've got to export to a text file as follows:
first line with a header then the other lines with the details, and if it has another header it continuous with first a header and then details again...
My question is when exporting an access table to a text file using a fixed file format can you combine two fields into one field and if so how do you do it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen exporting a table from Access as a text file, it keeps adding .00 to the end of the number format records that I am tying to export.
Why it is doing that and what I need to do to prevent that from happening?
Hi,
I am trying to export a query from an Access 2007 database into a fixed width text file, to import into a statistical program. The query is a simple select query from one table, selecting 5 columns. I am using a specification to set the width of each of the fields (image attached). The problem is with the first field in the table which is a long integer field. I want to set it as a fixed width of 4 characters, but every time it exports it sets the width as 11 characters. I have tried exporting from the original table, changing the data type but nothing seems to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I have a table with below fields and content:
container_nr_no Type time
AAAA1233456 210 12:30
BBBB1222234 45g1 13:30
And I would like to generate a output text file like below:
FLD00101=1
FLD00102=AAAA1233456
FLD00103=210
FLD00104=1230
FLD00201=2
FLD00202=BBBB1222234
FLD00203=45G1
FLD00205=1330
FDL00.... should be generated automatically, starting with 101 for 1st container and 201 for 2nd and so forth. The output should be in vertical manner.
I have a text file linked to this database, and I'm trying to create a Query that will pull all of the data out of this text file, and add a rank if two of the values match in multipe records.So in other words, when multiple records have the same [JOBNBR] , I want to evaluate the [TIMESTAMP] value to see if it is the smallest one, and so on.I don't want to create multiple queries to do this, is there any way to do this? Here's what I have:
Code:
DDR: (Select count(*) from tblMyDataImport Where [tblMyDataImport].[TIMESTAMP] < [TIMESTAMP] AND [tblMyDataImport].[JOBNBR]=[JOBNBR] )
I have a complex query that I am exporting to a tab delimited text file.
The query has three date fields, and a time field. The query export results in both the date and time portions of the value being shown instead of one or the other.
I have tried using the format function to force the dates to only show the date portion, and the time field to only show the time portion. So far, without luck.
I would greatly appreciate help from someone who can spot what I am doing wrong. The sql for my query is below.

Am trying to export an excel (97-03) file from a query I have. Some of the columns have exported as number values (as its linked via unique id's). I want it to export certain columns as the text columns. I have tried the lookup route but it doesn't seem to make a difference.

I have a template csv file which has comes with headers. I now need to export multiple datas from my different tables into the csv file. I thought I would open an instance of excel, open the query as recordset (in VBA) and go through each record and finally use appExcel.saveAs as a CSV file. The approach doesnt look like it will look. I have looked into the DoCmd.Transfer text method but I cant seem to create a export specification because my query requires two parameters (startDate and endDate).
Secondly it is a huge template, over 700 fields and I will only be exporting around 40 fields so there will be huge number of empty fields. If this was a excel file, I would write few queries and write result from one query into the file then skip required columns and then write results from another query but I don't know if its possible with Docmd.write txt.
I am using access 2013 (Office 365 Pro) to perform all of this.
I have 30+ queries (or table columns) I wish to export to txtfile files that I need to be able to replace each time the table and / or queries are updated.
This is the code I've used but when I run the macro the error message is that the FreeFile is not a valid outside procedure. The code debugs without issues up to but not including the macro.

I have a form built with multiple buttons. Once the user clicks the button and enters their parameter, I am using VBA to export the data to an excel pivot table. I would like to turn the subtotals to false so as the user clicks the check boxes in the pivot there are not any totals, subtotals, or grand totals. I am not sure how to add that to an existing query?
View 1 Replies View RelatedSomeone decided to be clever and send a text file with a stupid date format, is it possible to show off a little here and get a working date format, it's a text file I am working with: Dec 18 2014 01:12PM.
Not that is an exactly cut/paste so spaces are as they are here, ideally would like to get 18/12/14 13:12.
