Queries :: Append Multiple Data With Update Query?
Aug 6, 2013
In access Im working with two tables, this is my setup
tableA.documentnr
tableA.revison
tableB.documentnr
tableB.revision
Both tables are filled with data, Table B contains the same kind of data as table A, But tableA has documentnumbers with different revisions (for example revision a,b,c, for each revision a seperate row). Table B might have an identical document, but just one revision (like revision a).
Now I like to append the data of tableA to tableB, except if a revision is similiar to a revision in table A. (There is more metadata involved, but I will do it step by step)
Im not working with primarykey data, becayse in the end result table B will also have multiple (identical)document numbers with different revisions on different rows.
I tried to use the update query but it doenst append the documentnumbers where the revision is not present in table B I attached a image of the tables.
I am giving two tables and I need to create a macro that automatically updates these tables depending on the value of a Yes/No field. If it's No, it's in the 1st table TableOne, if it's Yes it automatically updates to TableTwo.
So, the best way I saw to go about is to set up an append query and then create a macro that runs it
So my tables have the values FirstName, LastName and isValid (more but keeping it short)
So for my append query, I put TableTwo in the pop up I get. Then, where it asks for the field I put it
I do this for all (it was autocompleted except the Criteria field). I tried to keep Criteria with data only for isValid but that didn't work. I wrote it for all the field names, still didn't work. Whenever I click run it says it'll append 0 rows.
I want to set a table field's default value to whatever is displayed in a certain field on a certain form at the time.In other words, say I have a database with a table called TABLE1, and two fields called NAME and SCHEDULENUMBER. I have a form called CreateSchedule with a SCHEDULE NUMBERCONTROL form and a NAME form, and I can enter names onto it, and it records to the proper SCHEDULENUMBER. So if I pull up SCHEDULENUMBER 4, and add three names, when I go back into TABLE1, I can see those three new names, and each one has the SCHEDULENUMBER set to 4.
What I'm trying to do is write an APPEND QUERY to copy a list of names from a different table, and paste them into TABLE1. The problem is that the other table doesn't have a SCHEDULENUMBER field. What I want to do is put a button on the CreateSchedule form that runs an APPEND QUERY, and sets the SCHEDULENUMBER to whatever value is displayed on CreateSchedule's SCHEDULENUMBERCONTROL field.
I tried setting a default value in TABLE1's field properties for that SCHEDULENUMBERCONTROL field, but I keep getting error messages. I just want TABLE1, whenever I add a new record (regardless of how I add the record: manually typing it or clicking the append query button) to look at the form CreateSchedule, and set it's own SCHEDULENUMBER field to whatever is displayed in CreateSchedule's SCHEDULENUMBERCONTROL form.
I have a Table1 served by Form1..It is a list of: UnqID, process, quantity, totaltime(in seconds).I want to click on a record to bring up a filtered Form2 with the chosen record on it.What I want to be able to do is to now split the quantity (and the time) and put these new records back into Table1 and delete the original record
EG
ID1,10,write a report,2400
I want to delete this and replace it with two (or three/four etc) replacements, but still adding up to 10 quantity and 2400 seconds so that the new data could be:
ID2,5,write a report,1200 ID3,5,write a report,1200
My initial thoughts are to create a holding table to:Append filtered data on Form2 to a holding Table1hld (i don't know how to do this) delete data in Table1.then enter the new quantities into a holding Table2 (that I will input myself) and then append (through a series of queries back into Table1).The first problem is how to append (and subsequently delete) the filtered record from Form2 to Table1hld.
I'm receiving an error indicating there is a data type mismatch when running a query named qappInventoryTakeOn.
Data is entered into the Inventory Transaction Form. If the transaction type is "Take On", when the update button is clicked the record will be saved to tblInventoryMovements and then qappInventoryTakeOn should run to update tblInventory, but I keep running into the aforementioned error.
Access2007- Building a query to handle future input...
I run an update query that does what it is supposed to do and gives the proper values.
THEN I add a one more field to the source with the builder using + that has no data in it yet, the query fails and gives blanks, even though one of the fields in the source has data in it.
I would think that the "no data" field would be considered 0.00 value and be added together to the field that has values giving at least the value of the field with values as a result of the query.
Is there a setting somewhere that I need to change so that the no value and the value would be combined? I am using the builder to combine the values in the query.
I need to update the periodtype field in my table depending on different values in the field Formtype- I am looking to do this without having to use VBA. I have the following fields in a table - I want to update the value of the field Period_type as follows -
When Formtype is 10-Q, update Periodtype to "Quarterly"
When Formtype is 10-K, update Periodtype to "Annual"
The current value of Periodtype for both formtypes is "Semiannual"
I have a table that I need to update existing data and append new data. All of the new data is in the same file. Is there a way I can update and append at the same time?
Just wondering if someone can point me in the right direction so that i can solve my problem?
Basically what i have is a select query that carries out some calculations based on data entered. These calculations are expressions as i am sure you guys know. what i want to do is put the value from the expression/calculation into my table in the correct fields made for these values. However i have tried everything i can think of to get this data into the tables fields but to no avail.
example. Expr1: [field1]*[field2] the answer created by [Expr1] is the value i want to be placed in [field3]
I'm running an update query that's based on a select query (that runs some calculations). The update query is updating ALL the rows that should be updated with the information in the select query with data from the final row in the select query, and not on a per ID basis as I think I have it set-up to do. The data looks correct in the update query, but again it's not coming out right.
This 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:
I am relatively new to the use of VBA and ADO to append Oracle data to a Access Table. The code below was my first attempt and it doesn't work!!
Upon your review, you can see that there are quite a few calculated fields in the table which is generally considered to be a maintenance problem. I plan to update all fields within the table that ends with "Current."
Any insight as to what the problem could be? Is there a more efficient method to append/update data within the Access db? How would the module differ if I wanted to update the fields on the table that end with "Current?" Do I have too many calculated fields?
Sub ADO_AppendEncDetailNew()
Dim Rs As New ADODB.Recordset, connString As String Dim cn As New ADODB.Connection, sqlEncData As String
I am accessing an oracle database that has several thousand records in it. I am quering for specific requirements, but would like to save my query results in a local access database for faster searching capabilities. Is there a way for me to set up a query that will go out to my oracle table files, select the records that pertain to my search criteria, and add records to locally stored tables without duplicating itself each time that I run the query? I would appreciate any assistance in this matter. Thanks for your help!
I am using a DB to, among other things, calculate the monthly salary of my service users. Obviously, I have to do it every moth. Most of the data from the previous month will be the same in the next month, except date. Even if some of it is different, having the previous data on sight calculate the new salaries.
Every month I have to select all records with the month date (say 07/2015) I want to copy and
(1) copy paste the records into the salaries table, and (2) search and replace the new records' dates.
For example, records with 07/2015 with say 08/2015 (I have to replace downwards to ensure I don't change the record of the month I need to keep).
It can't be that difficult, but I have tried append and update queries to make this automatically (say by clicking a button) but so far no luck.
I'm hoping someone might be able to help point in the right direction. Our IT department applied a patch update to windows 2000 overnight, which has had an impact on the Append queries in my DB.
Basically I have a number of append queries that use lookup tables to append the appropriate data from the underlaying table to the required table. They all have a relationship of "only include rows where the join fields from both tables are equal".
These were all working fine yesterday, but this morning, even though there is data in the underlaying table that meets the criteria, not data is being identified.
Has anyone any idea, as our IT department don't know and are not prepared to undo the patch update.
How do I get an update query to only copy part of a fields value?For example: The original field has a date in month, day, and year. I only want to update the new field with only the year.
I have been spending all my today to fill a combobox dynamically, but have not been able yet.
I have a combobox and a pass-through query in access, which is working fine and fill the details into the combobox via data source. Now what I am planning to do is to update the combobox source as soon as value in a text box changes.
Here is the code I am using, but it is not working:
Dim rs As Recordset Dim qDef As QueryDef Set qDef = CurrentDb.QueryDefs("get_data") qDef.SQL = "SELECT Initial + ' (' + Name + ')' uws FROM EM.dbo.UW" _ & " WHERE lob = '" & addSingleQuotation(Me.CMB_LOB.Value) & "'"
Me.cmbUM.RowSource = qDef.SQL Me.cmbUM.Requery
I also used Recordset, but did not work:
Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("get_data") Me.cmbUM.RowSource = rs!uws
I am setting up VBA to run multiple append queries in consecutive order. The append queries are supposed to pull a four digit number off of a form that will allow them to know which data to append. I want the number to be stored as text to correspond with the tables I am working with, but I am having trouble getting the form to work.
Here is how I would like it to work:
I enter my 4 digits in the text box on the form. Say "1305" for May 2013. I want to then run my vba (my queries update using the forms!txtupdatequery!textbox I have put in the criteria of the queries) and all of them run.
I enter my date (as a number but I want it to be text) and the form gives me a #name? error.
I have a table that is updated from an update query which gets its data from a table, which gets its data from a form. I have set the query to only update the current record, this is done by a macro when the user exits the input box. The problem arises when a user goes to visit past record, I would like it to not overwrite the old data with the new data. If the query was only allowed to ADD data and not overwrite then this would fix the problem!
I have a dilema on my hands as I can't seem to figure out the best way to accomplish this. I created a database to handle all of our letters for my department in the company. The problem I am having is that we have 26 people who could possible access the database at the same time. The letters are created using a form. (not a problem with multi-users) When someone wants to print the letter the do a search either by "Letter Date", "Provider Name", "Provider Number", or "Group Name". I set it up so either one of these search queries append data into one table called "Letter Report Information" all 38 letters get there data from this 1 table. The problem I am having is that if John and Mary try to pull different/same letters at the same time or while one is viewing their letters the data is getting pushed onto the others Letter.
Example:
Mary goes to print her Welcome letter John also goes to print his Denial letter at the same time
When John's letters show up.. the Denial letter shows up with his data, but also with Mary's Welcome letter data.
What can I do or what kind of query can i use to avoid this problem as it is becoming a very prominent issue? ::Please Help::
Can someone please explain to me what I'm doing wrong.
I'm trying to update my table called Portfolio with information sent to me via spreadsheet. I've been able to import the data from Excel into a table called PortfolioUpdate and the data types are all the same, but when i try to run the append query it keeps coming up with the message below
Switchboard can't append all the records in the append query.
Switchboard set 0 field(s) to Null due to a type conversion failure, and it didn't add 1889 record(s) to the table due to key violations, 0 record(s) due to lock violations, and 0 record(s) due to validation rule violations.
I've checked that all the data types are the same and I've also removed/added primary keys from the PortfolioUpdate table to see if that was the problem but to no avail.
I need an append query to also update a yes/no box or a text box with "yes" "no" in the field. I don't know how to do this in SQL. Please help. Query 1 is the name of the query I want updated from "yes" to "no" Something like: AFTER APPEND (I am not sure how to do the "after append" in sql) UPDATE Query 1 SET Query 1.DueToday = "No" Where DueToday = "Yes"
