I have two tables that are linked by a key field that I need to export for uploading onto a website database:
Chemical Properties
Chemical Components
key field: ChemicalID
I need help in developing a query or an output report to export the chemicals with their properties and the components from the other table. This may not be as simple as just making a query. Each chemical has 3 or more components and currently they are linked to one chemical.
To make a file to transfer to the online database, the chemical and all the components have to be in the same record. Right now the data exists as each record in the chemical table linked to several records in the component table. I don't know how to program the database to put the linked chemicals and their components on the same record. Has anyone confronted this problem before?
I've made as sample spreadsheet to show how the chemicals and their properties will look in the spreadsheet used to upload the data. Please look at the attachment before commenting.
how to export Access' many-to-many relationships in excel.
My database is a Project portfolio management tool. One project has many different fields, some of which can only be single values (one-to-one, easy to export to excel) and many others are multiple values fields, built as many-to-many relations (through junction tables).
One usage that was not specified at database creation time was the ability to export the portfolio to excel, so non-access-savvy users can browse, filter, sort and play with the portfolio however they want.
If I build a report, it will contain as many sub-reports as there are junction tables, rendering it un-exportable to excel. A Form would have to be continuous, barring the use of sub-forms for the m2m relations.
Building a query will generate many lines per project (as many as the most populous multiple field), making the excel sheet nearly unusable (in my users opinion, and here, the client's the king).
The best route I have been exploring so far involves "transforming" the multiple fields, so a the different "rows" become additional "columns".
Code: Dim db As Database Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Dim strSQL As String Dim flnm As String Dim appXl As Excel.Application Dim bookXl As Excel.Workbook Const wrksheetName As String = "Welder Performance Overall"
[Code] .... if i use DoCmd.OutputTo function, its export the whole table to excel. how can i filter this table ?
I notice that, no matter the context, the shortcut menu button to export to Excel is always disabled. The Export drop down button is enabled, but it only shows PDF and XPS as target formats. However there is no problem in exporting to Excel from tables, queries or even reports using the ribbon tools. I want users to be able to export selected reports to Excel but I don't want to give them full access to the ribbon. I'm using Access 2007 SP3.
Update: a further curiousity. If the database is in accdb format, I can use print preview, right-click on the preview, then select Export...>Excel and that works. But the Export option isn''t available after conversion to accde format.
How to generate an export specification file by using Access 2007. Many instructions says click on "Advance" while exporting a text file manually but unfortunately i can not find that "Advanced" option in my access software.
I am wondering if there is a quicker way to export a query to excel then have the data in that query removed from the original table. (effectively cutting the data from the table and exporting to excel)
I understand that this can be done by exporting the query to excel then running the same query as a delete query to remove the data but I just wondered if this is the most efficient way.
I have experience of VB in excel but currently only use the basic macro builder in Access though if Access VB is more efficient I can easily learn.
Hi, My database consists of some personal data and a photo of each person. I am trying to include these photos when I browse the database via ADP. I have found instructions how to do so at Microsoft website (article ID: 285820) Link for it: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=285820 The problem is I cannot make it !!!!!!!! Where exactly should I paste the VBscript in the page code to execute displaying of the photos??????? I am happy to send you the head portion of my page code if anybody knows where to paste it.....
I am currently working on a form that exports a query that changes after a user set filter is applied, and am able to get the filter to apply and the query to export. The problem I am having is that the worksheet that the query is copied into retains all previous data, and if the earlier query export included more records, they remain as they were, is there any way of getting them to be blank.
I want to export my query onto a worksheet that has current data, need to delete current data or delete worksheet so that only the selected data is shown.
My code currently is:
Private Sub Command67_Click() Dim strWhere As String Dim strFile As String Const strcStub = "SELECT NomT.shkFirstName, NomT.shkSurName, NomT.shkCompanyName, NomT.shkAdd1, NomT.shkAdd2, NomT.shkPostCode, NomT.shkRegion, NomT.shkCountry, NomT.shkAdd3" & " FROM NomT" & vbCrLf With Me.FilterSub.Form
I have a query that runs off three tables: These are tbl_contacts, tbl_status, tbl_publications. All contacts have a status but not all will have a publication. The problem is that when i run the query on a status type where none of the contacts for that status have a publication it will return no results, where what I actually need is for it to just return the details of those contacts for that status. The whole query runs off a form with combo boxes.
I am creating a database that should be fairly simple. The database is for a local racetrack and I'm stuck on how to entering race results. I have four tables: Driver, Rank, Home, Class. The form to enter in the results contains a main form with a subform. On the main form there are two combo boxes, one to select the Class of the race, and one to select the Heat of the race: i.e Finals, 1, 2, 3. The subform currently has a text box containing the rank of the driver for that race and the driver's name. I want the Rank to automatically start at one and increase by one each time a new driver is added. The rank field is part of the primary key but cannot be an autonumber field because there will be multiple ranks in the rank table. The rank table contains a primary key of: Class_ID, Rank, Heat. Therefore, each class/heat combo needs to start at 1 and increase. I created a query that finds the max rank value of the class/heat combo and I thought I could use that value +1 for the default value of the Rank field but I'm not having any luck. I have attached the database so that you can see what I all have as there isn't any sensitive information. If it would be easier doing it some other way than using the query that is fine to. I'm open to anything that works. I also want the Driver combo box in the Rank form to be limited to only contain drivers whose Class_ID matches that of the selected class in the main form. I have the row source set up sot that it works when I make my first selection when entering the form but not when I change the selected class and I do have an After_Update event set for requerying. It seems this should be so simple but I'm just missing something. Thanks in advance for your help!
I have recently upgraded from Office XP to Office 2007. I had an Access database which worked fine in Access XP. In it I had a table linked to an Excel spreadsheet. When I entered data on an access form, it updated the Excel spreadsheet [source document] accordingly. This does not seem to work in Access 2007. The linked table option now does not permit data entry or amendement. The other "Get external data" options create a table in Access which also does not update my source Excel document. The idea is to enter data in Access using a form. This data is placed in an excel spreadsheet. Excel gets some lookup values, and then enters these in a Word mail merge. Without the functionality of a linked table and data entry, I cannot produce new reports.
how to import data from excel 2007 like' suppose the field in DB table is A, B & C and the same is there in excel 2007, now i like to get B & C filed data from excel to DB table directly (import) which may be through button at form, because i have given my user the accdr file so they cann't go into the table and paste record.
I used this way to export data to Excel worksheets, and do some formatting on the Excel sheet
Set objXL = CreateObject("Excel.Application") objXL.Application.Workbooks.Add Set objActiveWkb = objXL.Application.ActiveWorkBook ................
It works fine. I have a question. When I run the function, suppose it takes 15 mins to export data because there are many records and calculations. During the 15 mins, if the user open the Excel file, it will break the process of export data to Excel from MS Access. So, how can I prevent the user break the process/prevent the user to open Excel worksheet?
I am new to MS Access database and I am currently developing a DB with search function in a form for an inventory purpose, I have followed some VB codes from the web.
Here is my issue; when I try to search using the configured combo box in the form it gives me these sets of values, here is the screenie //oi57.tinypic.com/24fxwzk.jpg (just add the http: before the forward slashes as the site wont allow me to post images or links yet)
If Not IsNull(Me.compName2) Then strWhere = strWhere & "([Computer Name] Like ""*" & Me.compName2 & "*"") AND " End If If Not IsNull(Me.cUser2) Then strWhere = strWhere & "([Current User] Like ""*" & Me.cUser2 & "*"") AND "
[Code] ...
I just wanted to eliminate the numbers and replace them with the actual values as name. ex. "-1";"Office 2010" instead of (-1) doing the search, it should be the value "Office 2010"
I work with an Access 2007 database that I split into a front end and back end. The back end holds all of the tables and the front end holds the queries, forms and reports. It is also a multi-user database, in that we have 14 people having access to the same back end. Each of the 14 people have their own front end. I have one main table in the back end listing clients and their individual ID numbers. That table has a One to Many relationship with several other tables, such as Case Notes and Authorizations, to name a couple.
Here's one of my problems: Sometimes data that is entered by a user will disappear.
Example 1: User creates a new record in the Authorizations form. Sometimes it is created by duplicating an existing record, sometimes it is completely new. User then prints a report from that new record, which looks like it has been saved. A couple minutes later, or a couple hours later, or maybe even the next day, user goes back into the database and cannot find the record that was previously created. At that time I look in the back end and cannot find the record either.
Example 2: User creates a new record in the Case Notes form on Day 1. These are always completely new records. User returns to the database on Day 2 and the new record sometimes does not show up in the form or in the back end table.
I cannot MAKE these things happen and they are sporadic, which makes it hard to diagnose, but why this was happening or if there was a way to retrieve the lost data.
Does anyone know what would cause records in a table to change their sequence? I have a table that I clear out. Then I append a header record. Then I append the detail records. The table always is populated correctly. But sometimes, when exported to a text file, the header ends up down amongst the detail records. What would cause this?
I am new to access application need some help, I have a table with around 100,000 rows and i want to export this to excel in two separate sheets of 50,000 each , i tried applying filter to see if i can pick some unique values was not successfully, pls advise on this how this can be done
I am exporting a table to a text file using a specification. Comma Delimited, no text qualifier. Now, I don't know if this makes a difference but the file is decent size (over 1000 records). The data within each record is exporting fine (about 78 fields) however, I have what is a major problem.
About a third of the way in the exported file are 70 records that have exported 60-70 records too early. Those 70 records are in order themselves but they just somehow jumped the gun(if that makes sense). This is a big problem because this file is going to be uploaded to the mainframe.
Just as an FYI the only VBA I have in my whole database is one pop-up message box. Everything else is run with macros. This one table does not have any primary keys since this is the table the information is oringally imported into and is moved from here. What I want is the information to look like it is in the table.
If anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate it. I'm going nuts and so is my mainframe programmer trying to figure out how we're going to get around this.
Hi all, I would like someone to tell me how to export an access table to excel spreadsheet. this main table has relationships with several other tables when i export the data i get the id# that references the data from that specific table not the actual data that i want, it seems it should be easy to do , but i have struggled with it all week .. would really apprieciate some help
I am new, as you can see this is my first post. I have been reading different posts, but couldn't find a solution to my problem. Actually, I have created a table and around five forms, now each form is connected with that table. I can input the information through those forms into the table, now the only problem is this I want to transfer the information into differnt forms using the combo drop down menu, when the selection will be made it will transfer the information into the other or it will freez it into that form.
for e.g. I have made new, active, deal etc forms, I have made a drop down menu using combo which has these options in it as these are not only the forms name they are processes too. As the new deal comes in, it will be kept into new process for 30 days, after 30 days it should be moved to deal forms automatically, how would that be possible. And I want that to be frozen in that form. Other question is, how is it possible to hide the table from users, that they wont be able to make changes into table. Third question, once the info is inputed into the form no user should be able to delete that or overwrite it. And my last question is in regards to security, how is it possible to keep one user login into the database at one time, so no other user can login into that database or make changes.
I’d like to export ADDRESS field into a cell (or cells) in an Excel spreadsheet based on the DATEkeyed-in a specific cell. There may be numerous addresses for the same date.
Example: Spreadsheet Cell B7 = 6/12/05
Returns from the tblConstDate Access Table into a cell (or cells) in the spreadsheet: 1206 Wisconsin Ave. 1224 Wisconsin Ave. 1313 Wisconsin Ave.
I hope that I can explain my question correctly. I have a form with a subform on it and I was wondering how to export the data to excel. I want the information from both the form and sub form kept together. If anyone understands what I am saying and it possible, then I will post my form.
I want to export my tables from an Access 2003 database to Sql Server (Version 8.0). Isn't there a built in function to do this? I tried import from Access to SQL Server in Sql Server. I tried export to SQL Server from Access in Access. Neither gave me errors but I couldn't find my tables either. When I tried the export in Access again, I got an error that the table already existed. When I began searching the Internet for how to do this, I found software for sale. Has anyone had experience with this?
I am getting "Truncation Error" while importing data from Excel to access 2007. I have tried changing the format to short text but the result is the same.
