I have imported data from Outlook. The field I am interested in is the
'Subject' Field. This contains 3 effective segments,
1 employee name
2 description
3 job and sub job number
I wish to move the employee name into another field and also the job and sub
job number. I have tried the following Right() Function but it is not quite
working as I want
I need to take out the carriage returns but keep the items delimited in some way so they all apear on the one line. These are the child parts for kits so i need to keep them on one line as i import them or via a query so i can see the parent part they belong to.
My "MainMenuForm" contains a button that imports a specific csv on a specific location.Someone should do this import once per day. The problem is that there is no way for me, once the import has been done, to know which records are "new".There is no unique field that distinguishes the new records from the old ones.
I was thinking of adding like a Date() field to that csv (= the date where it was imported). Can this be done automatically? So if I import a file today, the final column would be 05/02/2015If i import a new file tomorrow, it would be 06/02/2015.
I am having an issue with an Access import. It worked correctly bringing in a sharepoint spreadsheet until a date field was added to the spreadsheet and the structure to the database. Now it drops any additional fields that are added. At first I thought if I added a filler field after the field I needed that it would still drop the last field but it dropped them both. If I insert the field in the middle of the spreadsheet....(where I really want it). It drops the last field of the email address. Which I need to send out notifications. I have tried designing a complete new table and importing it, but it continues to do the same thing.
Not sure if my problem is with the spreadsheet or Access. Somehow it is still looking at the old structure when I import even if I create a new table. Not sure what is happening.
Hi, I'm not sure if this is possible, but I've heard you guys really know your stuff.
I have a client who would like to import a list of e-mail addresses, but would like to verify the domain name used in the provided address against a list of domain names pre-populated in a table. Do I need to use Dlookup? Here are some additional details. Thanks in advance!
Every week i want to import a csv-file (250 records) which may or may not have been updated, say 200 are the same as previous week and 50 records are new/updated.
Is there a way to import the csv and add an extra column with who imported all of the new records (based on currentuser)?
I am importing .txt files into Access table via VBA code (i.e., not via Saved Import Spec). Is there a way to trap the error if a particular field does not get imported due to incorrect format? When you import via Saved Import Spec and there are errors in formatting, Access generates an 'ImportErrors' table, which tells you which fields could not be updated.
Is there a way to generate a similar 'ImportErrors' table with VBA error checking?
When I import a column from Excel into a new table in Access using the Docmd.transferspreadsheet function, Access automatically assigns a field name of "F1"; and if I try to import a range of columns (Eg A1:B10), then Access saves them into a table with 2 columns with field names "F1" and "F2". The table is created as part of the Docmd function, and so I don't have control over the field names.
Is this going to always be the case? Can I depend on Access to always use this naming convention? Because I am about to start writing more code that will depend on these field names.
Information 8|REPORT BY THE COMMITTEE APPOINTED TO STUDY CLASSIFICATION, TRANSPORTATION, DISTRIBUTION STORAGE AND SALES OF PESTICIDES IN *******|***** *. *****|******** ** *** **********|****|||PA2|
Okay, so my office had this emergency data dump, we lost the library, the records were saved but to do so they had to be backed up as .t files :-s which means less formating then a txt file :eek: :eek: :eek: , anyway, my office is hopeful I can fix their problems, sorry bout the ***'s, I was told that I can not put that information up on the net for security/privacy purposes. Anyway, what I have to figure out to do is to take this 1 field and split it into 8 fields, these correspond with the | character. If you see 2 || or more together it means that field was empty. Anyway, I just need a way to break these into 8 seperate fields, any feed back would be great.
I have vba code set up to automate a query output to email with outlook. I am having issues with the "TO" field. I have tried different types of code, such as the following:
Both of these work, but the issue I am having is the "TO" field in the outlook message looks like this: admin@blahblah#mailto:admin@blahblah#
Why my code is adding the email address twice, I need to get rid of the #mailto:admin@blahblah# but I do not know how or why it keeps adding that end part.
I know how to create new table in Access by linking to Outlook contacts. The problem is, the default NOTES field in the Outlook contact does not show up in the linked Access table. Every Outlook Contact field shows up with the exception of that one field.
I was wondering if there was a query to run that would seperate a field in a column into to.
The Current Field is Prec and the entries all are numeric numbers followed by a dash and another numeric number i.e. 9700064-0 7600049-0 Another 7 digits-one digit I would like the first 7 in a column called prec1 and the one after the dash in a column called grp
Is it possible to have 2 sepaerate sub forms, with different source objects on a single form. I thought it was, but every time I save the main overall form, the source object of the second subform changes to the source object of the first.
Hey all, For securing a database, is it possible to set a certain password for users to view just one table? like i've lots of tables in my d.b that i plan to use a workgroup file for different users to view it, but there's one that i only want certain people to access...can this be done at all??
I'm making a table with a Yes/No choice many fields which represent subscriptions.
The problem is that the subscriptions available will need to be changed fairly often - will this mean the table and the form associated with it need to be redesigned?
If so, I don't know how to make fields that change depending on a different table.
If this can't be done, I'd be interested to find out how else I could go about this.
Is it possible to create a database and link this to a form and another database? What i want to do is link a network database with a local database on a client machine?
I want to import a csv file and store the good data (which matches input masks, validation etc) into one table, and all the bad data which is rejected into another table.
I've read a bit about an import error table, and although I do get errors when importing the csv file, no such table is generated.
I'm working with a linked table that has a seperate field for the date, and a seperate field for the time (which show in the linked table as '11/30/1899 9:46:00 AM'). I need to calculate the time difference between 2 entries.
How can I merge the 2 fields into a combined date/time field for my calculations?
Hi. Having a bit of a problem getting a subform to requery/refresh after running a query from a seperate form. The seperate form is acting as a 'search form' and running query qSearch.
I've tried various things (requery the form, subform etc) but here is the code I'm currently using:
Private Sub RunqSearch_Click() DoCmd.OpenForm "Papers" Forms.Papers.RecordSource = "qSearch" Forms.Papers!Authors.Form.RecordSource = "qSearch" Forms.Papers!Authors.Form!AuthorName.ControlSource = "qSearch.AuthorName" Forms.Papers!Authors.Form.Requery Forms.Papers.Requery DoCmd.Close acForm, Me.Name End Sub
The main form is requerying fine, but the subform isn't. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
I am learning access on my own using MS Press step by step manual and it tells me to hold down the shift key while selecting the text boxes that are next to the labels, but when I do the labels get selected also . how do I disconnect the labels from the text boxes in order to insert space between the labels and the text boxes as it intructs me to in the book. I am able to select the labels separately, but it will not allow the text to be selected separately.
I want to be able to find the last value entered into a table from a form that is not based on that table. How do I go about this?
What I am trying to do is produce a 'purchase order number system' that adds 1 onto the previous number, but this purchase order can be generated on many forms and for many reasons across the database. I do not want to use autonumber.
Still working on a products catalog. I am creating this by printing a couple of separate reports, each with its own category.
At the end of a report A I store a value (number of pages) into a variable "NumPage", defined in Visual Basic. I have made this variable public and also the sub in which it is altered (report_close()) is public.
Now I should have stored the number of pages of report A in NumPage, enabling me to start report B with the right page. However in the public sub (on_open()) of report B I am not able to display the value of NumPages (just using a messagebox to check if it works).
Does anyone know whether it is possible, and if so in which way, to pass a variable created in a module of report A to report B?
I am trying to create a page that can display 4 different records from a database, each one in a different div container, for a news page.
I have an access database containing news records - headline, news and date. Each record also has its own auto-numbered ID.
So far I have managed to get the asp page to display all of the records in a list by using:
recordset.movenext Loop
and I have managed to get just 1 displayed by using:
SQL = "SELECT * FROM tblNews WHERE ID=1" and changing the ID number.
But I can't seem to find a way to display each in a different div container on the same page. Can anyone help please? I think this is really obvious but I just can't see it!
I am working on a DB and would like to include the following information on a report. The information is as follows;
tblPersonnel.Name Tony Jennifer James Tom
tblPersonnel.LOA tblPersonnel.Vacation
Tony is on a Leave of Absence (LOA) Jennifer is on Vacation which leaves James and Tom at work. Lucky them! The fields "LOA" and "Vacation" are two separate check boxes.
I would like to limit the query to display employees that are either on a "LOA" or on "Vacation" Since they are in two separate fields how do I write the expression? I know how to limit it to only employees on LOA. Or employees who are on vacation, but how do I qry those who are on vacation or LOA?
