I can't seem to figure out the proper syntax for the FindFirst method. I am using several variations of this effort:
Dim dbs As dao.Database
Dim rst As dao.Recordset
Set dbs = CurrentDb
Set rst = dbs.OpenRecordset("tblInvoice", dbOpenDynaset)
rst.FindFirst "rst!ID = frmInvoice!txtID"
I get an error message that says that Access doesn't recognize rst.ID as a valid field. But, it most certainly is. I tried substituting tblInvoice but got the same error.
I am writing an event procedure to check to see if a particular Project number exist in a recordset. I am trying to use the findfirst method and are having some problems. Here is my code.
Private Sub Command3_Click()
Dim db As DAO.Database Dim rs As DAO.Recordset, ProjectNo As String, SqlStr As String, StrProjectNo As String
Set db = CurrentDb() Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("tblTrackingSheetFrm", dbOpenTable) StrProjectNo = Me![ProjectNumber] rs.FindFirst StrProjectNo
MsgBox " Project worksheet already opened by another user."
rs.Close End If End Sub
What this does is check to see if another user has a project open and if so doesnt allow that user to access that project. I am getting the following error when I execute the procedure on the findfirst Code line.
Runtime error 3251 Operation is not supported by this object type. Can someone take a look and see what I am doing wrong. Any help is greatly appreciated.
I am trying to locate a record on a multirecord form by using Findfirst method. Here is the code.
Dim UA1 As String, UAE1 As String, UA2 As String, UAE2 As String, UA3 As String, UAE3 As String, apost as string, repl as string apost = "'" repl = "''" UA1 = Nz(Forms(ParName).Form.NAME, " ") UAE1 = Replace(UA1, apost, repl)

This code sometimes works and sometimes it does not work. The field CNO is a text field of 5 characters but contains the card numbers that is numeric data or nothing.
table1_ProductList -> has the following fields: ID (primary key,auto number) SERNO(text) DESCR(text) PRICE(currency)
table2_Jobcard -> has the following fields: ID (primary key,auto number) PROD_DESCR_ISSUED (droplist, get 'prod desc' value from table1) PROD_QTY_ISSUED (decimal) DATE_ISSUED (datetime) ___________________ PROBLEM/QUESTION :
Let's say I change the PRICE(in table1) on 1 Jan 2005, then all EXISTING records (before 1/1/2004) will also be updated with the new(changed) PRICE. This is WRONG, right?
What is the correct procedure to use/update the PRICE value ?? Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
I have 3 cross tab queries that are completely identical with the exception of the field that they pivot. Each field is searching for the same values just in different columns, with the end goal being to get the sum of the values for each pivoted column. I'm wondering rather than having 3 almost identical queries is there a way to use a crosstab to sum the values from each of the three fields rather that having 3 queries which then have to be aggregated in a fourth?

I have a small issue where I do have names written in UPPER CASE, I would like to transform them in Capitalized (each word), I understand that I cannot use the same function as in excel (PROPER) but something like StrConv, but as I do have a ‘comma’ in between the names I have something like that
Is there a way of finding out who is turning18 years old in the next 6 months on a set day.
Specifically, I want to minus a date of birth from todays date (DateDiff?) and then for it to show those people who will be turning 18 in the next 6 months.
I've tried a range of Datediffs but I can't seem to get what I need.
I would like to display a report based on the table called "expenses", filtered by:
- "from" (datefrom field) and "to" (dateto field) date on "payment date" field; - multiple criteria on same field called "payment method" (I would like to include only payment methods "check" and "credit card", but not the other payment methods in the field, such as "cash", "transfer", etc.)
For that end I made a query based on the table "expenses", and in the "payment date", in the criteria field, I entered:
between [form]![formname]![datefrom] and [form]![formname]![dateto]
This works fine so far, however when I attempt to add multiple criteria on the "payment method" field, it does not filter accurately any longer. In the same row of the criteria field where I completed the date criteria, I enter "check". In the next row, same field, I enter "credit card".
Since it doesn't work, I tried putting both arguments in the same line as the date criteria (always in the payment method field) as: "check" and "credit card" but still does not work (now it filters the payment method correctly, but the dates filter appear as if I have never completed them).
Hello, I hope I have posted this to the correct forum? Anyways, I have started porting my database backend to MySQL after a spate of corruptions and speed degrading daily, I have managed to get most things functional but one thing which I can not get working is an odd thing with the FindFirst statement. I have the following line of code...
rst2.FindFirst "AwaitingStock=True and StockIn=False and DOA=False and Model='" & Trim(Me.Model) & "'"
which works find with Access backend but with MySQL I get the error...
Run-time error '3761': The decimal field's precision is too small to accept the numeric you attempted to add.
This is obviously not the correct error as I am not trying to add anything! If I remove the bit about the Model, the code executes fine, also, if I remove all the =True parts and just leave the Model part everything works fine so I guess it is because I am mixing string and integer fields in the search???
When, id do press the 'RecordWeergeven' button, Microsoft Visual Basic returns with a error. Method or data member not found. I think the error is located bij Me.Keuzelijst0. Do i have to declare a Listbox or create a second recordset. Please help.

I just discovered the reason why my table has not been working the way I want it to. In my code below, I have set my rst to find the first record of the previous month which in itself is correct, however I just discovered that it is picking up the records in ascending order.
Here is my code: Option Compare Database Option Explicit
Private Sub Button5_Click()
Dim prevMonth As Integer Dim curMonth As Integer Dim prevYear As Integer Dim curYear As Integer Dim CurRecordMonth As Integer Dim rst As Recordset Dim rst2 As Recordset Dim db As Database Dim monthText As Variant
Set db = CurrentDb
'fill an array with the text for months names monthText = Array("", "Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun", "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec")
' find previous and current Year and month. If current month = jan then go back to Dec of the year before curMonth = Month(Date) curYear = Year(Date) prevYear = Year(Date) prevMonth = Month(Date) - 1
If prevMonth = 0 Then prevMonth = 12 prevYear = prevYear - 1 End If
' count number of existing records for current year and month ' If DCount("Month", "TTransactions", "month = '" & monthText(curMonth) & "' and year = " & curYear) = 0 Then
If DCount("Month", "tTransactions", "month = " & curMonth & " and year = " & curYear) < 2 Then 'if current month and year does not exist in table ' open table and find last months record Set rst = db.OpenRecordset("tTransactions", dbOpenDynaset) rst.FindFirst "month = " & prevMonth & " and year = " & prevYear ' open table again to write a new record Set rst2 = db.OpenRecordset("tTransactions", dbOpenDynaset) Do Until rst.NoMatch ' loop through all records meeting the criteria rst2.AddNew rst2![TelNo] = rst![TelNo] rst2!Year = curYear rst2!Month = curMonth rst2!Rental = rst!Rental rst2![Fees] = rst![Fees] rst2![Vat] = rst![Vat] rst2.Update rst.FindNext "month = " & prevMonth & " and year = " & prevYear Loop rst.Close rst2.Close Set rst = Nothing Set rst2 = Nothing End If Set db = Nothing
End Sub

I have put in an autonumber to assign sequential numbers to the records as they are entered. This I had hoped would allow me to sort my query by autonumber, however if the findfirst keeps finding the records in ascending order then I'm lost. Is there any way to get round this?
I have a procedure that searches a table (recordset 1) for values in a lookup table (recordset 2) using FindFirst / FindNext. The routine worked fine until recently, I now have two issues;
I have included a new country in the lookup table - Cote D'Ivoire, now I get an error message when it reaches this name. I guess it's the " ' " that is causing the problem but don't know how to get round it!!??
I have modified the program so I can select the field I want to search from a form (thanks John) but it won't accept the field name as it's not part of the recordset e.g. rstTempTable.findfirst "[Field] = etc. How can I pass the chosen field from the form to the recordset?
Need a little help with a record selector. I ask it to find a record and bookmark it. No problem. If record doesnt exist I get the value from a control and run a Insert Into command into my table creating a new record with that case #.
Now how do I modify the code below to make the new record just inserted into the bookmarked record. See sample code below. I'm not too practiced when it comes to this recordset business.
Any help is appreciated
Private Sub FindTheRecord() ' Find the record that matches the control. Dim rs As Object Dim Answer As String Dim aSQL As String
Set rs = Me.Recordset.Clone rs.FindFirst "[CaseNo] = " & Str(Nz(Me![CaseNo])) If rs.NoMatch Then Answer = MsgBox("No Matching Case Number Found." & vbCrLf & "Would you like to start a new" & vbCrLf & "record using this case number?", vbYesNo) If Answer = 6 Then DoCmd.SetWarnings False aSQL = "Insert Into Main ([CaseNo])Values ([Forms]![frmMain]![CaseNo]);" DoCmd.RunSQL aSQL DoCmd.SetWarnings True
DoCmd.GoToRecord acDataForm, "frmMain", acLast Code: Original - Code ' does not recognize the last record just added to the table, is there a command I can use here? ' does not recognize the last record just added to the table, is there a command I can use here?
Else MsgBox "Action Cancelled" CaseNum = "" CaseNumYear = "" DoCmd.GoToControl "CaseNum" End If Else Me.Bookmark = rs.Bookmark Call EnableControls End If End Sub
I think this is propably an easy thing to do, but nevertheless I have not been able to make it work in MS Access...
(Let's say) I have a table with information about people. Sometimes I need to get a subgroup of the table_people, like a group with a certain age, or who live in a certain area, or who like certain things. And sometimes a need to work with the whole table.
To be able to do this basic filtering I have a form with check boxes, like "check this if you want to filter by a persons hobby" and appropriate fields where to choose a hobby from a list. My problem is: how do I add this "condition" to my query? I've tried eg. using "Like" as a filtering tool and IIF() to add the condition, but this doesn't work (in the criteria row):
Like (IIF( Forms![basic]![Filter_by_hobby] , "[Forms]![basic]![Hobby_from_list]", "*"))
So the idea is that if the box is checked, the condition is true and the first text is chosen, and if no filtering by hobby is required, all people are chosen regardless of their hobbies (Like "*") How to fix this - is there a syntax error or a profound mistake in my thinking - or how to do the same more elegantly?
This query works and I can spot the record based on 3 fields and display it. Now I have discovered that we have a person who has an apostrophe in his name like O'Brian. The above code gives a syntax error in this case.
I have table where First Name, Last Name and Initial are all in one field. What is the syntax to remove initial? Been playing with Right and Len with no success, I'm sure this has been done before.
I have a combo box on a form where I allow the user to pick an office. The primary key is the bound column which I then want to use in a stored query to limit the query results to the specific office selected. I can easily do this with the docmd.runSQL in the module, but I'd like to use a stored query instead. My exact problem is I can't get the syntax correct in the Where clause in the query design. I use the build feature and get the following: [Forms]![frmReports]![cboOffice] which doesn't work. If I manually put the key value in the Where clause, it works fine. tell me the correct syntax for the Where clause.
Trying to parse first two sections of a five section string. Now getting a SYNTAX COMMA ERROR. Th Left((([ArborID],InStr([ArborID],"-")+1,(InStr(InStr ([Arbor ID],"-")+1,[ArborID],"-")-InStr([ArborID],"-"))-1)),10)

why the first code is working and after adding a few lines it gives me a syntax error. It highlights the AS ETI. I usually work on the query grid, but I read somewhere there is a limit to the length of expression. So I ended up editing the expression in SQL view, but somehow doesn't work.Working before editing:
Code: SELECT [Salaries YTD].[Emp#], [ETI Filter].ETI1, Sum([Salaries YTD].DaysWorked) AS SumOfDaysWorked, IIf([SumOfGross] Between 0 And 2000 And [ETI1]=1000,[SumOfGross]*([DaysWorked]/(DateDiff("ww",[Forms]![PeriodSelector]![FromDate],[Forms]![PeriodSelector]![ToDate],6)*5)*0.5),IIf([SumOfGross] Between 2001 And 4000 And [ETI1]=1000,1000,IIf([SumOfGross] Between 4001 And 6000 And [ETI1]=1000,1000-(0.5*([SumOfGross]-4000))))) AS ETI, DateDiff("ww",[Forms]![PeriodSelector]![FromDate],[Forms]![PeriodSelector]![ToDate],6) AS Weeks, Sum([Salaries YTD].Gross) AS SumOfGross1
I have 2 tables called MakeTable1 and DBO_TBL_Activity
Im trying to update MakeTable1 with the values from TBL_Activity when both activity.StartDate and maketable1.Dates match but also acticity.IDStaff and Maketable1.ID Match
Below is the SQL i have so far
Code:
UPDATE [MakeTable1].[Detailsa] SET [dbo_tbl_activity].[details]
WHERE [MakeTable1.Dates)=[dbo_tbl_activity].[StartDate] AND [MakeTable1].[id]=[dbo_tbl_activity].[idstaff]);
why this query comes back as invalid syntax?I am attempting to find all records older than two quarters, Month of Contact actually displays the date as ##/##/####
