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 production database in which orders are checked for shortages at different levels of production in which :
1 raw product can be fetched in 2 or more final products, Shortages are checked as per priority.
In this database i have tables named "finalproductlist" and "rawproductslist" in which products are connected in one to many (see table "productmapping"). For E.g. 1 product in raw table can be fetched into 2 or more final products.
I have stocks query on both levels with which shortage is checked.
I want to create the order shortage query which gives the shortage at both levels prioritywise.
I have a table of employees, and dates they worked on. These are seasonal employees who want to get in as many days as possible before the season ends, but regulation states they must take a compulsory rest day after x days.So I need to create a query that can return the list of employees, with a count of consecutive workdays up until current date.
If today is 20/09/2013, and Johnny worked on, 19, 18, 17, 15, 14, 13, his count must be 3, because he was absent on 16. Therefore only from 17 through 19 is regarded as consecutive.
If Peter worked 19, 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, his count would be 7, because unlike Johnny, Peter still worked on 16.
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::
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 have a macro setup that deletes all the records in 2 different tables, then using about 8 queries, appends several records to the two tables where data was deleted. When these macros run, several Yes/No/Cancel dialog boxes come up for each query, first asking you if you are sure you want to do this, that it is going to change data in my table, and then second telling me how many records it's going to append or delete.
Is there a way to make it automatically run Yes to all of these dialog boxes? That would really help out a whole lot. Of instead of that, but maybe some sort of VB code that could do all the deleting and appending without the need of the Macros, and that doesn't require user intervention. I have my Macro's setup on the "On Click" event in a form, so using VB would be no problem at all.
I´m trying to improve my appl. but I´m stuck trying to figure out how to append multiple rows on a table using the Append query.
My problem comes since I have 4 tables with the following fields: 1) Orders OrderID (number) CustomerID (number) Date (date) etc... 2) OrderDetails OrderDetailID (number) OrderID (number) ProductID (number) QuantitySold UnitPrice etc... 3) TmpOrders OrderTmpID (Autonumber) CustomerID (number) Date etc... 4) TmpOrderDetails OrderDetailTmpID (Autonumber) OrderID (number) ProductID QuantitySold etc...
The problem comes since the Tmp tables are used just to record temporarly the information before the transaction is completed. Whe the salesman at the desk finish the sale, a command button is presseed and an append query runs to transfer the data from Tmp tables to the Definitive tables. Another query (Delete) is excuuted inmediately after the append qry. and it deletes the information recorded on Tmp tables.
I need to reset the autonumber or create a field that records the line number so I can add up to the Maximum OrderDetailID found on the definitive table, but the problem is how to create the "controlled" autonumber.
hi i am trying to order a select statement by two columns, so it first orders by type, then by value. the above code would work in php/mysql (i think!) but not with asp/access. any ideas?
I have a pretty simple database that we use to track customers, orders, invoices, and payments. I have an order form that shows all of the order details, and has a subform with services, qty, price, etc. Sometimes we need different products that are part of the same order to appear on two different invoices (say an order is for part 100 and part 101. If part 101 ships first it needs to be invoiced, and part 100 will be on a separate invoice when it ships later), so one order can have multiple invoices.
I'd like to create a solution where when a user clicks the invoice button on the order form, they are able to select which lines from the subform should be invoiced on that particular invoice.
I have 2 databases Product, with 3 entries ProdID, ProdName and UnitCost. 2nd database Order has Order ID, ProdName, UnitCost, Quantity, SaleDate and Total. I want to create a form to input data into the Order databse that allows me to enter several rows using the data from the product table by selecting ProdName(Product) from list and UnitCost(Product) being inserted into each row automatically as a new ProdName is selected. Can anyone hsuggest how best to do this.
I have two tables I want to update...One table is a lookup table (Dates) and the other holds most of the information (History). I then have a query that finds the information i need that will be appended to both tables. One field in the query needs to update the dates in the lookup table "dates" and then the history need to get all related info.
Example:
Before Query - (In Date Table) (In history table) 1/2/06 Jane Doe $10 1/3/06 John Doe $40
After Query - (In Date Table) (In history table) 1/2/06 Jane Doe $10 1/3/06 John Doe $40 1/4/06 Jeff Doe $50 <---- How do I add this info, to both tables
I Have a situation where a client will want to pay some lump sum amounts of money off a loan and it may be something like $100 per month for 10 months. I have created a table for lump sums payments into which this info would be entered but I need to create an individual payment for the period of time designated ie 10 individual records of $100 each starting in a month and incrementing the month.
I see it being a append query but do not know how to make the append query create 10 instances of the one record based on a field value. I also do not know how to make the Month increment by one for each record ie Mar05,Apr05,May05 etc.
If this is possible any suggestions would be appreciated.
I have a tabbed form. The main form is titles ContractDtlsFRM. There are 3 other subforms in separate tabs. The first field in the ContractDtlsFRM is Contract No. I would like the form to sort in ascending order by this number.
I tried entering the following code in the Forms Order By event but it didn't work
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer) Me.OrderByOn = True Me.OrderBy = [Contract No] End Sub
I inherited an interesting problem. I have 3700 tiny MDB files all of which contain the same table (same name, field structure, etc.), but different data. Each database has a slightly different name. It's the result of XML data mining.
I need to combine these 3700 tables from these different databases into one table in one database.
I can't see any way to automate this and as it's a one-time only project I don't know whether it's worth trying to automate it or if I should roll up my sleeves and just start apending tables.
Hi all Can someone help me with an Append query problem I am having. The end result I need is a Work sheet that has a Customers details, Plant details, Work required and a Subcontractor name. I have a search function that I use to select either a Customer name or Plant ID. Once I have selected the Customer name/Plant ID, I use a button to append the Customer Name and the Plant Id to a Plant_History table. This table uses an Autonumber field to create a unique identifier for each entry which I am using as the Work Sheet number. I have then added coding to open a form which accesses the Plant_History table directly so I can enter the work required and the contractor to carry out the work. My problem is that the Customer and/or Plant will have multiple entries in the Plant_History table. Currently, when I select the button to append the details to the Plant_History table, if the Plant ID is already in the table, the number of records is doubled in the Plant_History table (eg if the record has previously been entered 4 times, 8 records will be appended to the table). I am not sure why this happens, if someone could point out the fault in my work, it would be much appreciated. Regards Craig
I have atable the is storing ID, attendance_year and meeting code. Iw ould like to query the table and identify the IDs that have 10 consecutive attendance years no matter when it may have occured. So IDs have more than 10 row of data but not necassrily 10 years in a row.
I have a form for user to select multiple items from a combo box, and 18 unbound text boxes , each time user selects an item in combo and hits "add" the value appears in txt box by order, I mean select1 then "add" filling txtbox1, select2 then "add" filling txtbox2 ... and so on till we reach txtbox18, then msg box appears that he filled the whole 18 boxe. I have already done this before for one txtbox which is a very simple operation, but i cannot figure out how to do it with multiple txtboxes.
With referential integrity enforced, is it possible to use append query to append to multiple tables based on only one parameter that applies to only one table. If so, please enlighten me with a detailed explanation.
Firstly I have placed this in the general section as I am not quite sure if any vba would need to be created for the following. I would also like to report on the information but the answer may not be done at report level.
Anyway, I have created a very basic database that holds staff attendance and their reason for being absent.
I am trying to get a very simple thing done in Access and I must have spent almost over 2 days of Internet time to do so. My problem is that I need to get the difference in 2 records to show in a query.
e.g. MyTable has 2 fields: 1. MyDate 2. MtrReading
Everyday I enter date in MyDate and a number in MtrReading. And I need to find out the difference between today's MtrReading and Yesterday's Mtr Reading.
I have about 100 or so tables that I need to append back into one table :eek:
However all of these 100 tables all begin with the number 100 at the beggining. I know that you can append tables - but as far as I know you can only do one at a time. Is there any easy way to do this - for example writing a small SQL statement - saying select all tables that begin with 100* and then append into a master table :confused:
Alternatively are there any programs on the net that can do this (I just wrote a massive macro to import them from a text file in to access- not realising this problem would happen!) :(
Unfortunately each of the tables has the first row as the column heading too?
