I want to add a column to an existing table using the sql statement Alter table. The new column needs to be a yes/no type. The following code almost works but it only sets the column to a general logical type not specifically the yes/no check box .
DoCmd.RunSQL "Alter Table TblIssues Add [" & Issue & "] logical;"
Any ideas?
I have a numeric field (long integer) in a table. I've set the format to fixed. No matter what I set the decimal places to, auto, 0 or 2, when I enter a value of 0.71, it displays as 1.00
In my form, I've also set the field property to fixed, but it displays the value as 1.
Ok, here is my question. I am just a little rusty since it has been a while since I have been in Access.
So I have a option group: option 1, option 2, option 3
If option 1 is selected I want textbox 1 visible, but textbox 2 and 3 not visible.
If option 2 is selected I want textbox 2 visible, but textbox 1 and 3 not visible.
If option 3 is selected I want textbox 3 visible, but textbox 1 and 2 not visible.
When the form first opens, all textboxes are not visible. What is the correct way to do this: code, macro, etc? and where should I place it? Should it be in the Afterupdate property of the option group?
Thanks!!
I am opening a query from a docmd.openquery action in a button... however, I would like to set the name of a sub query in VBA so that I can have one "main" query open with different sub queries. My main query is a "member roster" with basic person information, and the sub queries (linked on the person's id number) contain various other types of information.I have three different variations on the sub query, and I would like to reuse the main query and just change the sub query in code. This doesn't work.
Code:
Private Sub cmdMembershipRoster_Click()
DoCmd.Openquery "Rpt_MemberRoster", , subdatasheetname = "rpt_MemberHistory"
I dont' know what happend but now when i tried to add something to one of my subforms i get this error
The LinkMasterFields property setting has produced this error:'The object doesn't contain the Automation object'Claims Header."
i had it working not sure when it got screwed up.
i'm freaking out. i have to get this working correctly.
EDIT:
just to make sure it's ok to do this.
my subform is running from a table that has my uid from my main form claim_id and i have it linked from those fields.
currently the claim_id i'm looking to add to isn't in the table that my subform runs off of.
I have a report, on a control tab, on a main form.
On the form are two buttons: one to show all items, and one to filter them based on a boolean field called showitem.
The buttons work with the code below.
What I want to do but cannot seem to figure out is to have the report default to no filter.
The bound query has no criteria.
I'm trying to set the filter property via the on open or on load event and even if I isolate the report, cannot seem to reach it.
Code:
Private Sub b_hide_items_Click()
Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Report.Filter = "timeline.showItem <> 1"
Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Report.FilterOn = True
Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Requery
End Sub
Private Sub b_show_all_Click()
Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Report.Filter = "timeline.showItem = 0"
Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Report.FilterOn = False
Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Requery
End Sub
I tried to dynamically set image OnClick property to function with couple of attributes. Everything works well, but... it launches the function automatically without any mouse click! What is causing this? I want to execute the function only on the result of mouse click.
Piece of code:
Forms!Form1.Controls("Image" & i).OnClick = fclick(PiltID)
Private Function fclick(u)
DoCmd.OpenForm "Form2"
Forms!Form2.Image0.Picture = u
End Function
ERR: The expression AfterUpdate you entered as event property setting produce the following error: Return without GoSub....
can someone help me...why..b'coz b4 this i'm using the same coding but it can work for another several form....
Code:
The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Procedure declaration does not match description of event or procedure having the same name
Now this is the error message that I am constantly getting from any command button I hit on a certain form. Here is the code of the form.
Option Compare Database

Private Sub CopyToTableBt_Click()
Debug.Print "Sub Execute calling ImportCSVForConfederation inputCSV="; inputCSV; " ORG="; ORG
ImportCSVForConfederation Me.CSVs, ORG
[Code] ....
I changed the names of the buttons, reconstructed the code under those names, went to the modules and changed names, made sure that a sub o function name is not duplicated in the project... But helas the error is still there. It used to work and suddenly does not work.
I have two tables (Access 2010). One with a list of names (List1) and another with a very similar list of names (List2), but they differ in very small ways. For example, List1 might have John Smith, and List2 would have Smith, John L.; and Smith, John. List2 also has a unique ID associated with these names that I need to append to List1.
I need to design a form that will allow me to look up names in List1, and have it return all names that are similar in List2. I then need to be able to choose with record in List2 matches with the List1 entry (based on a few other columns in List2, such as birth date) and have the form add that unique ID to the List1 record.
PS: I am using Access 2010

I'm trying to change the name of a column in a table using SQL. I've tried different combinations but always get
"Syntax error in Alter Table statement"
SQL I've tried
alter table tblImport
rename column F1 to [Date];*
alter tblImport
rename column F1 to [Date];
alter table tblImport
rename F1 to [Date];
I've checked this out via some SQL sites & think the first version (*) is correct....can someone throw light on this? I'm using Access2000
Helo…please really need your help.
I designed a small desktop database to automatically import some Log files. A sample of a transmit log file (emails sent from our rural email stations) looks like this when imported in access.
Date Time Direction SenderMessageID
03062005 133501To InternetemailX@ab.comBlablabla
03062005 125001To InternetemailQ@ab.comBlablabla
03062005 125001To InternetemailZ@ab.comBlablabla
03062005 125001To InternetemailA@ab.comBlablabla
I would like to be able to query all emails sent between one date and another. However, the date here is recorded has a string or text. I would like to automatically add a field with the date as Date/Time datatype in the Table. I think I should be able to do this with a few SQL statement like ALTER TABLE myTable ADD COLUMN NewDate AS datetime…and then another SQL statement to separate data and put it into this new field.
Then I could query for BETWEEN Date1 and Date 2 easily.
I’m pretty close but been trying for a while now and always error messages as results. I think I really NEED help this time.
Thank you,

I have an Access 2010 front end with linked tables via ODBC to a SQL Server back end. Is it possible to add, delete, and otherwise alter the tables on the SQL server from the Access front end? I've tried the following but received an error "cannot execute data definition statements on linked data sources"
DoCmd.RunSQL "alter table [dbo_tblAccountsMvOld] add column [cnt] byte;"
Is there code that will let me do this?
We have a database which has a table with 2 fields - here is an example of the data:
Order File Path
240971 cclapps1scannerWorks Orders 2008Works Orders 2008ITL1ITL1TMSPC11.GFD
We basically need to change the file path to read cclapps3 instead of cclapps1 in every record.
I am attempting to update an oracle table using MS Access.
One of the fields to be updated is a primary key number field.
I'd like to use the autoincrement field to update that field.
My sql is:
Code:
Alter table testAutoNum Add column progid autoincrement (1001,2)
This sql nicely creates the new field in the table, but it doesn't start at 1001 and increment by 2; it starts and 1 and increments by 1.It is also creating an autonumber and I need it to be a number.
What am I doing wrong?
I have some code that creates a table based off another table. This code works perfect but Im trying to alter my ID field and change it to an auto increment. How can I fix my code so that it alters my ID field?

db.Execute "ALTER TABLE [BrandTBL] ADD COLUMN UPCGroupName TEXT;"
I am having trouble with a make-table query. I run a query that populates my website with data daily. I have a bunch of fields in the db that I wanted to be displayed as one field on the website, so in my query I concatenated them. My website is able to distinguish which fields are text and which are memos so I can display multiple lines. Everytime I run the query, it creates the concatenated field as a text field. Is there a way I can default this to a memo type?
Thanks.
How can I do this? There doesn't seem to be an member of Field called format. Why is this? I want to make the display on a Boolean field, in a Table made from a Make Table Query, to Yes/No, rather than default 0/-1.

I have a table in which one field has Required property set to "Yes". I would like to set this property by using VBA code to "No", then add data into a table using a query and re-set the Required property to "Yes".
Is this possible and if so, how can I do it?

Hi
I feel really stupid for asking this, but I am so stressed at the moment, I can't concentrate!
I have a database that stores land locations and information relating to it. In the database, I need a form that asks 13 questions and answers are given in drop down boxes (about 3 answers to each question). Each of these answers relate to a score, which I want to be able to show automatically.
What I would like to know is how to set the table for it. This table has to use the ID from the land locations table (which is sorted by the way).
Please see the attachment for a simple design of what my 'boss' wants it to look like. The form for this table will be a subform on the main form for land locations.
Please can someone help me? I would really apreciate it :)
