I am trying to import data into Excel using a New Database Query, but receive the error "Invalid Bracketing of Name 'mdb.'." I can preview the data in the Query wizard, so it seems like Excel is finding the data, but I always get the above error.
I have performed the exact same process on another machine and it works fine. Is it possible that excel or access settings are causing this error, or perhaps my ms office is corrupt?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot.
I have a time reporting database called Productivity. I also have a split version with ProductivityFE containing the forms, queries, and reports and ProductivityTables containing the data. All three are on my PC. Each month I update Productivity with new records and run a report or two to check things out. Then from ProductivityTables I import the data tables. If there are any updates to the forms, queries, and reports these are imported into ProductivityFE. I again test a couple of reports before finally placing both FE and Tables on a server. The managers then place a copy of FE (from the server) onto their desktop and run reports from there. So far so good until this month when I created a new query for a new report. It runs fine in Productivity, but in the split database (on my PC) I get the error 'Invalid Bracketing of name [tblCostcenters.ProdCenter]'.
Below is the SQl from the query. Of note here is a time record contains both a home costcenter and a worked costcenter for the employee. I have two instances of tblCostcenters in order to reference the field ProdCenter for both the home and worked costcenters. The code fails at the first IIF statement on [tblCostcenters.ProdCenter]. Based on other posts on this sight I tried replacing these brackets with [tblCostcenters].[ProdCenter] and [tblCostcenters_1].[ProdCenter] and it seemed to be working until the last bracketing was changed, after which I was faced with the parameter query dialog box looking for a value for tblCostcenters.ProdCenter.
So I'm stumped. Why would the query work in a single database but not in a split database?
SELECT tbleTimeData.HCCtr, tblCostcenters.Title AS HTitle, tblCostcenters.ProdCenter AS HProdCenter, tbleTimeData.WCCtr, tblCostcenters_1.Title AS WTitle, IIf([WCCtr]="","Other Affiliates",IIf([tblCostcenters.ProdCenter]<>[tblCostcenters_1.ProdCenter],"Outside Product Center",IIf(IsNull([tblCostcenters_1.ProdCenter]),"Outside Product Center","Within Product Center"))) AS WProdCenter, Sum(tbleTimeData.Hours) AS SumOfHours
FROM (tbleTimeData LEFT JOIN tblCostcenters ON tbleTimeData.HCCtr = tblCostcenters.Costcenter) LEFT JOIN tblCostcenters AS tblCostcenters_1 ON tbleTimeData.WCCtr = tblCostcenters_1.Costcenter
WHERE (((tbleTimeData.FY)=[Forms]![frmMainMenu]![cboFY]) AND ((tbleTimeData.FP) Between IIf(IsNull([Forms]![frmMainMenu]![cboFPFrom]),[Forms]![frmMainMenu]![cboFPTo],[Forms]![frmMainMenu]![cboFPFrom]) And IIf(IsNull([Forms]![frmMainMenu]![cboFPTo]),[Forms]![frmMainMenu]![cboFPFrom],[Forms]![frmMainMenu]![cboFPTo])))
GROUP BY tbleTimeData.HCCtr, tblCostcenters.Title, tblCostcenters.ProdCenter, tbleTimeData.WCCtr, tblCostcenters_1.Title, IIf([WCCtr]="","Other Affiliates",IIf([tblCostcenters.ProdCenter]<>[tblCostcenters_1.ProdCenter],"Outside Product Center",IIf(IsNull([tblCostcenters_1.ProdCenter]),"Outside Product Center","Within Product Center")))
HAVING (((tbleTimeData.HCCtr) Between IIf(IsNull([Forms]![frmMainMenu]![cboCCtrFrom]),[Forms]![frmMainMenu]![cboCCtrTo],[Forms]![frmMainMenu]![cboCCtrFrom]) And IIf(IsNull([Forms]![frmMainMenu]![cboCCtrTo]),[Forms]![frmMainMenu]![cboCCtrFrom],[Forms]![frmMainMenu]![cboCCtrTo])) AND ((tbleTimeData.WCCtr)<>[HCCtr]));

I have the following in a query to assign a sequence number to each record:
(SELECT Count(*) FROM
[qryPTLActivity] AS T WHERE T.EmployeeID=[qryPTLActivity].[EmployeeID] AND T.PickDateTime <= [qryPTLActivity].[PickDateTime] AND T.PickAisle=[qryPTLActivity].[PickAisle])
I have used this in other databases without issue but for some reason this time I keep getting an "Invalid Argument for Function" error.
I’m getting an error I can’t understand!
Access says the name I have for my query is not valid. I can’t see why and the help is no help at all!!
Error says:
‘orders_by_project_query’ is not a valid name. Make sure that it does not include invalid characters or punctuation and that it is not too long.
Here is the name of my query
‘orders_by_project_query’
I have also tried:
‘OrdersRptQry’
‘qryOrdersByProject’
All the above get the same result.
The query is a look up on two tables to obtain subtotals for a number of orders.
The SQL from the query in SQL view looks like this:
SELECT orders_table.order_id, Sum(CCur(products_table!unit_price*order_detail_ta ble!Prod_reqd_qty*(1-[order_detail_table.prod.discount])/100)*100) AS Subtotal
FROM products_table INNER JOIN (orders_table INNER JOIN order_detail_table ON orders_table.order_id = order_detail_table.order_id) ON products_table.product_id = order_detail_table.product_id
GROUP BY orders_table.order_id;
Any ideas why I get this error and how to correct it?
Thx,
Kev.
I have a Form based on a Table of Clients, names and addresses etc. One of the records appears to be corrupt in some way because any time I attempt to access this record, either on the Table or in the Form, I receive an error message "Invalid Argument". The database then shows #Error in every Text Field and I am forced to CTRL Alt Del to close the Database. I cannot even access the record in order to delete it. Any ideas anyone? Thanks.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've found a few posts about this subject, on the forum, so I'm guessing that my database (or at least one table therein) has become corrupt.
I've tried the various suggestions I could find (compact and repair, import into a new Db, etc) and none have worked. I have, however, located a version of the database from the day before this error first occurred. I've checked the problematic table and it contains no 'Error#' lines.
The single table affected contains a lot of data and is pretty irreplaceable. I have daily backups, so no information will actually get lost, but if I can't add any new data to it (for fear of corruption) it won't be much use.
1) What causes this problem? I can't seem to find a definite answer to this one.
2) Is there one definite fix I can use to prevent the problem occurring again?
I have a database containing various linked tables and all has been fine for years.
I now have to add some fields to the main table and change some field sizes. I know about the 255 field limit. And I know that an individual record cannot exceed 2K.
BUT, when I simply lower the size of a text field, (i.e., from 40 to 30), I get either the message Too Many Fields Defined or Record Is Too Large.
The following query runs without issues.
SELECT Payment_Mth, CDate(Payment_mth) AS Expr1
FROM Table1
WHERE (((Payment_Mth) Is Not Null
And (Payment_Mth)<>"Does not apply"
And (Payment_Mth)<>""));
I get a set of data along the following lines
September 2007 01/09/2007
October 2007 01/10/2007
September 2007 01/09/2007
etc.
which is what I want.
However, when I try to filter to show only a particular date, I get an error
SELECT Payment_Mth, CDate(Payment_mth) AS Expr1
FROM Table1
WHERE (((Payment_Mth) Is Not Null
And (Payment_Mth)<>"Does not apply"
And (NBReferral.Payment_Mth)<>"")
AND ((CDate(Payment_mth))=#01/10/2007#));
An 'Invalid use of Null' message is displayed.
What am I missing, here?:confused:

Can someone help? :mad:
Thank you!!!
I have a Access 2000 database that occasionally has a popup message "Invalid Argument", which prevents me from running any action queries or codes. Also another Access 2000 database that has the same "Invalid Argument" error from which prevents me to import the tables to another database.
Do anybody know WHY does the error happen? WHAT does it mean? and HOW we fix it??
Please help. Thanks so much

I am using the student database template and I have added some tables and made some changes so I am trying to get all of the existing reports to work.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an application that inserts records to a database, and it works perfectly on mysql

The basic idea is that I need to insert a record into a table and then return the Key field so that I can use it to populate another table. This was working just fine for a while, then it stopped and naturally I can't think of anything I did to make it not work. I get an Invalid Use of Null error at the bolded step.

Hi,
I'm attempting to create a foreign key field in a sub-query by using Left() and Instr() to parse the text of my key field and return the characters prior to the second "-".
Example: 002-C100-4569 ---> 002-C100
When I build a second query with a relationship between the foreign key field previously mentioned with the key field in an associated query, I get the error "Invalid Procedure Call"
Here is my foreign key generator string:
CirNo: Left([tbl_IntExt].[ASSETID],InStr(5,[tbl_IntExt].[ASSETID],"-",1)-1)
The query data breifly displays, followed by the error messge, then all query fields display "#Name":mad:
The overall goal is to create a query to update the values in 002-C100-4569 (Child) with values from 002-C100 (Parent).
Any help or advise is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

I have three forms that are related to each other. When i click on a button on the second form I get this error: an expression that has an invalid reference to the property form/report. But why do I get this error??
At the third form I have two sub forms.This code are in the first sub form: Segment_subform.
Sub Form_Current()
Dim ParentDocName As String
On Error Resume Next
ParentDocName = Me.Parent.Name
If Err <> 0 Then
GoTo Form_Current_Exit
Else
On Error GoTo Form_Current_Err
Me.Parent![Blokk_Subform].Form.Requery
End If
I think it's something wrong with
Me.Parent![Blokk_Subform].Form.Requery. It doesn't recognize blokk_Subform.
Somebody knows..???? Please help me....

I have a form with two subforms (the second is the child of the first). I want to filter a combo box in the second subform using the record of the first as the filter.
When I open the form from the object list I get this '2455' error. When I press "end" and the form opens the requery does what I want it to do with no further error, using this code in the "got focus" event of the combo box in the first subform:
Code:
[Forms]![form_candidates]![Form_skill_subform].Form![skill_ID].Requery
I have included this before the requery:
Code:
On Error Resume Next
I have seen the use of
Code:
.recordsource = "..."
instead of the requery
