I currently have a table of contacts. For the most part, each record has a 'company name' field, an 'address' field, etc. Unfortunately, because I imported this data from a text file (I ran a VBA code which extracted each record from the text file and put them into the table) and because not all the contacts have the same number of fields, the fields don't all line up.
How can I traverse through the entire table and shift the cells so that everything lines up properly (i.e. - all the addresses are under one column and all the fax numbers are under another)? If I have to write some sort of procedure to do this, what approach should I take?
I am looking for a method to shift a small pop-up window around on the screen. I want to avoid the overlap with the help function, which is an external program. I already tried this code in the form:
Me.Left = Screen.Width / 2.5
But a form does not seem to have the property .Left or .Top. Does anyone have the solution? Hans van Vliet
I'm creating a database using existing data from an excel file full of contact details. What I need to add is a queue type system where each contact in the database has a "Place in Queue" number which is unique obviously.
Lets say Alan is number 1, Bob is 2 and Chris is 3. They have these corresponding numbers in the queue field for their entries.
Now what I need to have, through use of a form, is a way of changing Chris from number 3 in the queue to number 1 and thus have Alan automatically shift down to number 2 and Bob to 3.
I am trying to write a VBA Module that will look in a directory for Excel files with a specific file prefix, and then import specified cells into a temp table. Once it processes the first file, it copies the file to another folder, and then kills the file. However, when I run my current code, it goes through the loop the first time, but fails on the second attempt, because it is still looking for the first file it came across even though it has been moved. The code is pasted below:
Sub Count()
Dim xlwrksht As Excel.Worksheet Dim xlWrkBk As Excel.Workbook Dim nIndex As Integer Dim strMvPath As String Dim mvPath As String Dim strFile As String
I am writing the following code that will first of all display column headers dynamically using "Headers" field data from Access table and then find out the sum(volume) using column header and first column values. The following code works fine to display headers dynamically in Excelsheet from Access table but doesn't display sum(volume) in all the corresponding cells. As I can't attach the Access table so I have stored data from Access table to sheet named "Access Data" as attached. The sheet2 named "Report" should populate total volume .
Code: Public Function Inputdata() Dim cn As ADODB.Connection Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset Dim r As Long Dim i As Integer
I would like to have a table update query populate cells in a field, based on an IIf statement (below), but states that the IIf statement arguments still need to be enclosed in parentheses. I don't understand what the problem is, I have two sets of opening / closing parentheses.
For instance, first table export to EXCEL CELL A1 and then second table export to the same EXCEL but to CELL A5! I simply do not know the sytax to tell ACCESS to do the correct export!
e.g. DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, "EXPORTDATA", "c:EXCELSHEET.xls", True
I did a cursory search of the forum and didn't find anything (probably more my search than the content). I also think I know the answer to this, but I want to clear it up once and for all.
Is it true that I cannot insert an image into an Access Table in a way that it treats the image like data (e.g., it comes up on reports as entered).
If so, and I suspect it is so, what would be the best way to associate a row with a certain image in Access? Here's what I'm hoping to do: I have a list of projects and all of them have a status. Right now the "status" column includes the text "Green," "Yellow," or "Red." I would rather have this text display as green, yellow, or red color rather than text. Is this possible?
Hello, say for example I have a particular column in Access that I would like to force users to enter as percentage only, is there a way to format the cell as in Excel to create such effect? Thanks a lot!
In a query design view, I have two fields, LastName and FirstName. In the Field of a blank column I enter [LastName]&[FirstName]. In the query the last and first names are now connected , like SmithJohn. How do I put a space and or a comma to separate them?
Once again, I'm working with a file that I got from somewhere else that isn't in *quite* the right format.
What I have is a table listing all of the titles and their holdings we have in various journal databases. The table looks something like this:
|____TITLE____|___COVERAGE______|____DATABASE___| |_ABC Journal_|_1998 until 2000_|_EBSCOhost DB__| |_ABC Journal_|_1953 until 1986_|_Proquest DB___| |_ABC Journal_|_1980 until 2006_|_Free Journals_| |_XYZ Journal_|_1899 until 1956_|_CINAHL DB_____| |_XYZ Journal_|_2000 until 2006_|_EBSCOhost DB__| |_XYZ Journal_|_1955 until 1999_|_Proquest DB___|
The titles, as you can see, are listed more than once, with one record for each holdings record from each database where that title is found. For my purposes, I need the holdings to show up all together. I can do this in a report, by sorting by the title, but I really need to have it all together in its own cell--one line per title. The above table should look more like this: |____TITLE____|_______________________COVERAGE____ _________________| |_ABC Journal_|_1998 until 2000_,_1953 until 1986_,_1980 until 2006_| |_XYZ Journal_|_1899 until 1956_,_2000 until 2006_,_1955 until 1999_|
I don't really care what happens to the database field, but if it helps, the title and the database fields together would be a unique combination in the table.
Currently, I am working on an exported version of this table in excel, merging the cells 2 by 2 with a function command like this: =A2&" "&B2. Since there are 32366 records, I hope there is a quicker way. At this rate, I'm not sure if I'll be done for 100 years.
I'I need to randomly input values into row cells and when press enter key, it calculates the total value and show in another sheet. Example, in sheet1, I input random values in A1,C1,D1,Z1 and when I press enter key, it calculates the total value and appear in the first row cell, A1, of sheet2. All by VBA coding.
How do I paste to multiple cells in access 2007? Basically I want to copy one cell in the dataview and then highlight maybe 10 cells and copy the info from the one cell into the highlighted 10 cells at one time. I had no problem doing this with 2003 but in 2007 this seems to be an issue. Any help is appreciated!
how do you connect fields from one table to another? what im trying to do is to connect two fields from product! product id and order details! product id. the one in the order details table should equal whatever i input in the product table.
This is a form used to enter in the hours worked for each employee for any particular job. What I'm trying to do, is show a total for all the hours worked for the job in a text box under the list. The cells that I want to total up are named "StartTime" and "EndTime," and they come from "tblRelEventEmployee." The form shown here is "frmEvent."
Each job can have anywhere from 1 - 30 employees, and I need to be able to basically have a calculation that does EndTime-StartTime for each employee, and then add up the total for each to give me a grand total of hours worked for the job.
Yes ok DDE may well be dead but it works for me so why change it? Basically I wondered what the commands where to format Excell cells. For example if I stamp a cell with todays date:
DDEPoke intChan1, "R3C2", Left(Now(), 10)
How would I say shade that cell black, change the lettering to white or underline or bold that cell?
I will routinely be sent a Excel 2000 spreadsheet with multiple worksheets and each worksheets data is to be imported into a related named table in a MS Access 2000 database. No of course I have been using Transfer Spreadsheet to perform the imports but to make sure I get all of the data I use the range A1:AZ65536 (65536 of course being the maximum number of rows available in a Excel 2000 spreadsheet).
What I would like to do however, is just import the necessary number of rows not all 65536!!! Is there a way in code of working out how many rows in the A-AZ column range contain data?
It occured to me that if I linked a table to each worksheet then this would only display the necessary rows and I could count them however, once you have specified the spreadsheet location the code doesnt let me repoint the individual worksheet unless someone knows how to do this???
