Query Won't Run Off Of Identical Databases
Sep 23, 2004
I have a query that is based on two other queries (they feed a larger query that a report uses). They are all select queries, no make-table, etc.
The query runs fine against the production oracle database. However when the query is run off of either of the two identical test databases (production was dumped into test within the last week), the query stops with an error of Invalid Operation.
The Help Screen (see below) doesn't seem to apply to anything this query is doing. Any thoughts?
Invalid operation. (Error 3219)
Possible causes:
You tried to write to a read-only property. See the Help topic for the property to determine whether it is read/write.
You tried to use a method or property on a type of Recordset object that the method or property does not apply to. See the Recordset object summary topic to determine which methods and properties apply to a given type of Recordset object.
You tried to append a property to a Properties collection of an object that does not support user-defined properties.
You tried to use the Update method on a read-only Recordset object.
Thanks,
B

Friends own a book shoppe. They have closed up both their retail stores and are working on line only. A long time ago they bought a PC based program to keep their inventory and manage their on line sales. The program is called BookTrakker and still on sale today.
I called them to ask for assistance merging the access databases for but stores with their Master database. The owner sads they dont offer any assistance in combining databases.
I have had no trouble using the append command to combine the 40 odd tables in the database except for one small table called Keywords. This table only has 5 fields but the sallest has over 7,000 rows. This is one of the more important tables because Keywords are used by the search engines on-line for potential buyers find their interests.
The error message I get from Access is "Microsoft Outlook Access set 0 field(s) to nulll due to a type conversation failure, and it didn't add (number of rows in table) to the table due to key violations, 0 records due to lock violations, and 0 records due to validation rule violations"
The table structure is identical. The only difference is the data in the rows.
I tried removing both Primary Keys for both the tables (in and out). Nothing, same error message.
Next I tried appending the tables without the entire Keyword_id (Primary Key) field. Nothing same error message.

I have database for each location. Every location will update some information in the databases and send it back to me. In those location based databases, information will be stored in one table called "consolidate_input". I will store these databases in one specific directory and then I want to accommodate the data of "consolidate_input" into one master database having the same identical table in the database.

Hi,
I have a query which I run in the query design view. Then I have the same exact query which I run on the 'background' of a form.
The issue is, both queries turn out to have different record counts(eventhough I am using the same query and same tables). What is going on? Please help.
Thank you.

I have multiple databases (one for each department). All 4 databases have an Agents table (tblAgents). Now I am creating another database that uses all of the agents on site. What I want to do is link all the agents tables and combine the values in one query.
Fields are:
UserID (PK)
AgentName
BadgeNumber (Employee Number)
Campaign (Department)
Coach (Supervisor)
HireDate
Status (Active / Leave of absense / Terminated)
The tables are linked to my new database. So logically, I'd think my next step is to query the tables. This is where I'm stuck. How do I say:
Agent = tblAgentsDepartment1.AgentName and also tblAgentsDepartment2.AgentName and also tblAgentsDepartment3.AgentName and also tblAgentsDepartment4.AgentName?
I'll have to do this for each field involved...

I have two tables: tblOne and tblTwo with identical categories.
TblOne and tblTwo both group by Category and Duration. When I make a union query between tblOne and tblTwo, I notice that if I have the exact same category and duration for BOTH tblOne and tblTwo, the union query "eats up" one of the identical entries. How can I fix this?
I need to have two different tables because they correspond to two different machines (but are both the same type of machine, hence the identical categories)

I have a spreadsheet with 4,000 plant names, for example one plant name reads "Acer palmatum (Japanese Maple Tree)".
I transposed this spreadsheet into a database.
And then I created a query with 3 columns - "Acer palmatum (Japanese Maple Tree)" - "Acer palmatum (Japanese Maple Tree)" - "Acer palmatum (Japanese Maple Tree)".
And now I want to convert the database into 3 columns - "FirstName" - "RemainingName" - "OtherName" - so I can manually change this plant name for example to "Acer", "palmatum", "(Japanese Maple Tree)".
But when I edit any one of the names - all of fields in that row change whereas I only want the name in one column to change at a time.

I have 2 different databases. One for Archives and one for active claims. Both databases have identical tables. I'd like to create a query that will pull information from both databases. I'm pretty sure that I can do this with a union query, but I'm a complete noob with sql.
Can someone give me an example of the sql code to use to pull information from tables on both databases?

Hi
I have a problem with Update Query, I have 2 DB's and need to update a table held in DB#1 into a table in DB#2. I have read quite alot of post's about this but nothing is giving me the correct answer. I tried using Append Query but this was no good because when i ran the query it just adds the extra entries, I want the query to Update the entries already in DB#1. I also tried Update Query but didn't get the option to choose another DB.
Could anyone please tell me the best way to extract the data from tblInstruments(DB#2) and update tblInstruments(DB#1) i.e. overwrite the original field entries.
Many thanks.:confused::confused::confused:

Hi all,
Is it possible to create a query that looks over two different databases for information. i.e I have two departments at work that have seperate databases and I need to be able to search for data in both of them on the same query.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have two identical databases in MS Access. I have created a query in the first mdb file, which retrieves the matching records in two tables.
My problem is that i want to execute the same query created in the database1, on database2, without creating the query in the database2.
I think it is possible, but the query i was trying was not working file.
select * from db1.[Query1] in 'C:DBDB2.mdb'
where db1 is the name of the first database,
db2 is the name of the second database and
Query1 is the name of the query in the db1.
Thanks in advance for the help.

One set of users enter sales orders that are pretty simple in nature... Order Number, Item, Quantity, Ship To... etc. They occasionally run across the need to make multiple entries that are identical, because a customer wants the order delivered on a regular time schedule or they want invoiced in increments, etc.
So, they have a need to be able to enter as many as 50 orders, all identical except for the Order Number (and delivery date), all at once. None of these fields is a key field or an autonumber. Order Number is manually entered, though it is indexed - no duplicates. I'd like to create the ability within a form for them to put in a list of Order Numbers, plus the values for the other required entries, and have them populate the source table by applying all the entries to each of the individual Order Numbers.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!!

I have an access 2003 database which holds data for lorry loads of timber delivered to different places at different prices and by different hauliers who get paid different ammounts.
I have tables that hold the prices for both haulage (sorted by the delivery location and haulier) and product price (sorted by the delivery location and the haulier.
I have two almost identical queries which give the haulage price for a particular load and the product price for a particular load.
Only the haulage prices seem to be returned - i have checked the settings and relationships in each of the tables invlovled and they appear to be that same.
Why would one query return the value and the other not???

I have an Access DB built that links to an excel spreadsheet. The spreadsheet changes so I cannot import and have to link.
Now the source of my spreadsheets is producing two spreadsheets with identical fields but different data. I need to combine the data from these two spreadsheets. Can I link them both and combine them in a query? How?
Appreciate any advise.

I have a question regarding making a query with joint data that are not identical, as I'm not sure whether it's possible.
I have to look at certain serum levels at te start of a new medication regimen, and serum levels after 5 years.
I have one database with:
Patient number
Start date medication
Start date medication + 5 years
And one database with:Patient number
Date of blood test
Serum level molecule A
Serum level molecule B
What I want to do is make a query where the patient numbers are joined. The problem is that the "start date of the medication" and the "start date + 5 years" are not identical to the dates of the blood tests. E.g.: I have a patient that started medication on 01/March/2006, but he has had blood tests done every 3 months from 28/November/2003 till now, and not on 01/March/2006.
I would need the results of the blood tests (of molecule A and B) at the start of the medication and after 5 years, but if the test date differs by a day, Access already sees they're not identical.
I would like to have access select a blood test date that is as close to the medication start date as possible, within a time frame of e.g. +3 and -3 months. Is this at all possible?

Hi All,
Being a newb, have a hopefully straightforward question. I'm writing a vehicle management database which covers eleven seperate areas. The data is currently contained in a spreadsheet with eleven seperate data sheets, one for each area. My thinking is I use linked tables as the spreadsheet needs to be occasionally updated.
My difficulty...
If I want to cycle through all records, I assumed I could query against all tables but don't seem to be able to.
The tables are not currently linked in any way and contain fields such as registration, emissions, list price, make and model and so on.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks

Hello,
I have searched the forum and have found a lot of information however I am not sure just exactly what I am looking for.
Here is my situation.
It is a spilt DB.
I have a database with a form and a subform. The Primary Key in the form is unique to company A ie ID=CompanyA-1, CompanyA-2, and so on. There is a one to many relationship to the subform.
I have three of these databases in use, all identical execpt the Primary Keys. one is CompanyA, the others are CompanyB and CompanyC.
At the end of the month I want all companies, A,B,&C to send me their Backends so I can bring them all together into one database. The master database I want to bring all three backends into has the same Front End as the other three databases.
My question is what is the best way to bring all of the data together in one database so I can use the common front end to view it.
I am assuming that since the PK for each database is different they should all cometogether without much of a problem? If I can figure out how to merge them.
Thanks!

I have a form control with the input mask on it for a phone number. I am using an append query to append the information entered in the form to a table. I need to pull two fields from a linked table from another database. What I need to do is be able to compare the entered phone number in the form with the phone number from the table. The problem I am running into is that it won't match the phone numbers. The same mask is used in the table I am pulling from. Why can I not just put =[Table].[Phone_No] in the Criteria of the field where the number from the form is placed so that I can get the right record from the linked table?

The problem I'm having is that i need to combine 12 tables with multiple columns and not all columns have the same headers. So if a column is present it should be updated, if not it should be added.
The end result should be one column with all records and all columns that exists in all 12 tables.
The tables have an identifier that is the same for all columns (supplier reference).
Table 1 has 56 columns
Table 2 has 42 columns (of which some have the same header)
....
(--doing every column manually is something i would like to avoid if possible --)

Hello all.
I need to be able to enter a number of orders that would all be the same, but they will have different order numbers, in sequence.
I'd like to enter all the information in a form, then have "First Order Number" and "How Many?" fields, and have the system grab the detail, apply it to the order number entered, create a record in the table, then reapply the detail to the next sequential number, repeating the process until it has created the number of orders shown in the "How Many?" field.
I am at a total loss here, and any help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!
Thanks!

I have started working on an existing MS access application (Front-end & Back-end) built with VBA. The frontend linked to a back-end access database which contains only tables. Because of the nature of the work involving vehicles. Each user has their own copy of identical databases with their individual data stored in backend.
Right now we just copy each back-end database via ftp and store it as usr_backenddb_date.accdb Back end databases contain around 16 tables with most of them containing a autonumber field as a primary key. Further tables are connected with each other referencing the primary key as a foreign key .
I would like ideally create a function in vba that lets me select the database and merge all the data from that database to a identical central database. For the initial part, I am thinking of combining each individual table in each database and changing the autonumber field with SQL with possibly trying to cascade the change so the refrences remain intact.
Constant Access to one back end db via internet (or server) is not really possible as the users are able to connect to internet (network) only few times a day. There are over 100 backends (for each vehicle) with over 1000 records in each.

In my transaction table, I would like to find out the latest transaction dates of each family models. It sounds a simple Max function can get the desired result. However model number consists of the first 6 characters for the family model and the rest for the versions (variants). The Max function fails to work in this scenario. Is there any other way to group the model numbers once the 1st 6 characters are identical (the rest is ignored)?

I want to be able to store 2 identical fields on the same table in the database. The copy will start off being the same as that input in the original field. 90% of the time the 2 fields will always be identical but the copy may be changed at a later stage. I looked into using the copy as a calculated field but found out these can not be updated. Is there another control I can use or do I have to code the population of the 2nd field specifically (in AFTER UPDATE EVENT?) myself. The added complication is that the original and copy must be selected from a combo box as all values are held in a separate table.
Also trying to make the second field = to the first field in the design stage of the table using default value
SO if I put default value = [table].[fieldname] I get an error stating could not find field 'table].[fieldname', and yes the opening and closing square brackets are missing from the error.

I have a database that was created by a colleague. They have created a form for adding client records onto the database.This is done via a button that, when pressed, checks mandatory fields for correct entries and then saves the record.However, when we do this, it is creating two identical records on the database.
She cannot see what she has done wrong in the code, and I know next to nothing about coding,
Code:
Private Sub CmdAdd_Click()
Dim dbAddClient As DAO.Database
Dim rstAddClient As DAO.Recordset
Set dbAddClient = CurrentDb
Set rstAddClient = dbAddClient.OpenRecordset("ClientInfo")
[code]...
