Tables :: Copy And Replace Existing Records Function In Access?

Modules & VBA :: Replace Function In Access 2007 For HTML Email In Outlook 2010
Aug 4, 2014My company recently upgraded our MS Office from 2007 to 2010 (except for Access).
Previously, when I had Access 2007 and Outlook 2007, I had a process that generated 50+ dynamic emails from an Outlook template file (.oft).
The code would loop through a listbox and replace the template's default text to a string of text specific to the selection in the listbox by utilizing the Replace() function on the MailItem .HTMLBody.
Since the upgrade to Outlook 2010, the code is able to run, however, the Replace() function is no longer working; Instead, each email that is generated maintains the template's default text.
The only thing that is not working is the Replace() function, all other aspects of the code work fine.
I've provided a simplified version of the code below:
Dim myOlApp As Outlook.Application
Dim objMailMessage As MailItem
Dim stBody As String
Set myOlApp = Outlook.Application
Set objMailMessage = myOlApp.CreateItemFromTemplate("C:UsersDesktop emplate.oft")
[Code] .....
I've recreated the template file in Outlook 2010, thinking that the template created with Outlook 2007 would be the culprit, but to no avail.
What could have changed from Outlook 2007 to Outlook 2010 that would render my previously valid code ineffective?
Are there certain references I need to enable in both Access and Outlook to allow VBA in Access modify the content in an Outlook email?

Big Problem With Replace Function
Jun 23, 2006Hi All,
I'm currently migrating a lot of Excel processing to Access and really enjoying the transition. I am, however, having big problems with the Replace function in Access.....
In Excel I use a macro to relace anything in a cell contents that follows a space with nothing......i.e. replace " *" with ""
The fields that i need to do this on do vary in length- they are product descriptors.....e.g
abcdefg 123456
xzy 987
The replace feature (ctrl + h) in table view will do this correctly if "any part of cell" is specified in "match" selection but I cannot seem to replicate this in a query.
I'd be grateful for any suggestions here. I thought about exporting the fields in the columns to Excel and doing the replace there, but I can't get it to work. Similarly I tried writing some VBA for this, but again no joy!
Thanks,
N
Replace Function In A Query
Jan 19, 2008Can the replace function be used in a query?
I have used this
=Replace(Format([SITELATSEC],"00.0"),".",",") in a report and it works fine.
I have the following expression in a query that is output to a report.
LAT: "Latitude: " & [SITELATDEG] & "º " & [SITELATMIN] & "' " & [SITELATSEC] & """ "
I need to be able to display [SITELATSEC] with a comma instead of a decimal point. I tried
LAT: "Latitude: " & [SITELATDEG] & "º " & [SITELATMIN] & "' " & =Replace(Format([SITELATSEC]00.0"),".",",") & """ "
and got an error message about too many commas.
On a more general note: Has anyone ever actually finished a database - ie got to the point where no changes needed to be made? 18 months after this started, and I'm still tryng to accomodate what my manager wants!
Undefined Function 'replace' In Expression
Jul 12, 2007I'm trying to help someone with some text functions in Access, and I have used the Replace function to strip out spaces in a postcode. I created a dummy database in Access 2003 but in 2000 format since she is still on Access 2000. However, she is getting the above message. Incidentally, I don't get the message when I run it in Access 2000.
She has checked her references and has no missing ones. She has:
Visual Basic for Applications
Microsoft Access 9.0 Object Library
OLE Automation
Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library
Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.5 Library
I have attached the DB - I'd be really grateful if someone could try opening it in Access 2000 to see if they get the same error.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Many thanks

Query For Find And Replace Function?
May 16, 2012How do you use a query for the find and replace function???
View 7 Replies View RelatedUpdate Query - Replace Function Problem
Oct 31, 2004I'm having problems with an assignment in an online course I am taking.
The assignment is to create one Update Query to find & remove typos in a field. Specifically, the typos are multiple f's & g's embedded in a field.
I created an Update Query that finds the typos & removes just the f's. I'm having trouble with the syntax to also remove the g's.
This is what I have so far that works great.
Update: Replace([Field2],"fff","")
Criteria: Like “*fff*”
or: Like “*ggg*”
The Query finds the records that contain both the "fff" & the "ggg" typos but I'm having trouble with Syntax for removing both.
Does anyone know what I have to change in the "Update:" line to include removing the g's?
I know I could easily create 2 Querys to remove the f's then the g's but the assignment requires only 1 Query to remove both.
Thanks,
Yaani-Mai
Modules & VBA :: Replace Function Using Form Control Value
Jun 11, 2014I am trying to use the string value from a form control as the criteria for a query. I first need to replace the "," in the string with "AND".
So far I have a module using the Replace function, but it doesn't seem to be working. I am not sure I can reference the string inside the form control directly....if I can, I might have a syntax error.
Here is my code so far:
Dim result As String
result = Replace("Forms!Processing!Dataset_Acreage_Query", ",", "AND")
I am not experienced and having trouble finding the search terms to answer this question.
Queries :: Replace Function In Query With Sub Table
Feb 14, 2014I am running a query for an apparel manufacturing facility. In my query I have a table called 'OrderForm' which is where the orders are put in. There are more than one type of fabric that can be a part of an apparel item, so as a result, there are multiple fields pulling from the 'FabricType' table. In order to get this to work in my query I created 'SubTables' for the different fabric fields. For example, I have tblFrontfab, tblbackfab, tblsleevefab, and tblcollarfab which are just extra copies of the 'FabricType' table. The actual question is that when I want to replace characters like ,./& in the fabric field but I can't use the replace function. It says that it is too complex to calculate.
I used this notation
Frontfab: Replace([tblFrontfab].[fabric],".","")
and the error was that it is to complex to evaluate.

Possible To Update 180 Queries With Find / Replace Script Or Function?
Apr 2, 2014The company I work for is consolidating regional server space onto a single server. I have relinked all of my tables, but my ~180 queries are still pointing to the old server.
My question: Is there a script or other process that can be executed that will search through all my queries within the database to find the string "dbo_tbl" and replace with "dbo_vwtbl"? I would very much like to avoid taking each individual query to a notepad...
Queries :: Removing Text From String Using Replace Function And Wildcards
Apr 25, 2014I have a list of consumables;
Syringe 50ml
Syringe 20ml
Syringe 5ml
Syringe Cap
White Needle
I want to remove only the number and the ml part from the list, so I would end up with;
Syringe
Syringe
Syringe
Syringe Cap
White Needle
If I use
PHP Code:
Replace([DrugNameVial],"50ml","")Â
I get the desired result for the 50ml syringe size.
I have tried every possible combination of "**ml", "##ml", "Like [0-9]ml all with no success.
How this can be resolved without having to individual enter each syringe size "5ml", "20ml" etc
I can't even just take the text from the right till the first space as this would lead to problems with other consumables in the list.
Queries :: Make Replace Query To Look In Order To Find What To Replace
May 6, 2014I have this working query:
Code:
INSERT INTO TB_SISTEMAS ( LOGIN, SISTEMA, PERFIL, DATA )
SELECT Left([dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.LOGIN],255) AS LOGIN, dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.SISTEMA, Left([dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.PERFIL],255) AS PERFIL, dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.DATA
FROM dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS
WHERE (((dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.SISTEMA)<>"ACTIVE DIRECTORY") AND ((dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.DATA)="2014-03-23"));
But Iwant to be able to use a set of data to be used in the Replace Statement, so I create a table to add each string I would like to have replaced by "nothing", and trying to make the replace query to look there in order to find what to replace.I also created a table where I will list the systems that I dont want in the select, so I removed the "ACTIVE DIRECTORY" and replaced by the colum that have the list of system I dont want listed.This is the result:
Code:
INSERT INTO TB_SISTEMAS ( LOGIN, SISTEMA, PERFIL, DATA )
SELECT Replace((Left([dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.LOGIN],255)),[PREFIXOS_E_SUFIXOS]![Valor],"") AS LOGIN, dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.SISTEMA, Left([dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.PERFIL],255) AS PERFIL, dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.DATA
FROM dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS
WHERE (((dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.SISTEMA)<>[SISTEMAS_EXCLUIDOS]![Sistema]) AND ((dbo_BACKUP_ACESSOS.DATA)="2014-03-23"));
The thin is that this keeps asking me to enter the parameter value for "PREFIXOS_E_SUFIXOS!Valor" and for "SISTEMAS_EXCLUIDOS!Sistema"

View 4 Replies View RelatedAccess Sql Replace Statement Null/empty Strings
Jul 31, 2007Im trying to concatenate a bunch of fields (50 arghh) which each are either blank or just contain one letter. This was someone elses setup for an attendance register which I think is an odd way of doing it. I would have used one field and then to get the mark for a week take a substring at the appropriate position. Anyway im trying to replace an empty string field with a letter to represent the register hasn't been marked using sql statement:
SELECT [400 Student Marks].acad_period, [400 Student Marks].student_id, [400 Student Marks].register_id, [400 Student Marks].register_group, Replace([1],"","U") AS attendance
FROM [400 Student Marks];
[1] being the first register week then I would have concatenated with [2] etc...
This however causes an error each time on the attendance field so im guessing replace doesn't work on empty strings. Is there a way round this/alternative.
Thanks for any advice.
