i have a report that opens from a query that pulls from 8 different tables using the date as the primary key for each table. I want to be able to open my query without having to input a blank record for each date in each table. Basically I don't use every table everyday. Sometimes I just use 3-4 tables and others I will use all 8.
I run a query that I export out to a tab delimited file. This text file is used for another application. The problem I am having is if I select "skip field" in my text "export specification" it still exports out that piece of data, even though I have selected "Skip Field". The data type on this field is a number and field size is integer.
I thought I read in another access newsgroup that this is a known bug? Is that true? Is there a fix? I am anxious to fix this because, I have 90 query's that I export to text and I would hate to have to go to each query and select "Not Show" that field.
I want to copy data from one table to another: INSERT INTO Table1 (codeid) SELECT codeid FROM Table2 WHERE a=7
it works, but the problem occurs when diplicate entries occur in codeid of Table1 (because is is set to No Duplicates).
As a result no rows are inserted. It's OK, cause that's the way it should be, but I was wondering if there is a way to tell MS Access to skip insertion of values that will cause duplication. So the rows that are ok will be inserted and the ones that cause duplicates will be skipped.
I just don't want to go through the loop and insert row-by-row.
Currently, I have a button on my form that users can click on to generate a report based on the info from the form. Once the report has opened, they publish the form with MS Word for further edit if needed.
How do I set up the button so that it opens the report then automatically publishes the report with MS Word?
My form is always open and runs a timer event which runs a series of functions and procedures. I don't want to run a certain procedure on every timer cycle, but rather, every other timer cycle.
Any thoughts on how best to accomplish this. I'm having a mental block!
I have a form which displays the values of a table Vehicles. It has a control at the bottom of the form that allows you to toggle through the records, or enter a specific number of a record for it to jump to. It starts at 1.
I want it to skip the first 3 records in the table, and start at number 4. Is there a simple way to do that?
Is there a way to delete the borders from a form? You know the ones from the bottom and right hand side which have the buttons on for you to skip between records?
Also the one on the left which has the arrow in the top corner.
Put simply - when I do a find it displays the first account that matches it, then, when you leave the find screen and hit the "next record" key it simply displays the next account (i.e it no longer matches the search criteria).
So my question is, How do I search records, then skip through ALL accounts that match the criteria.
example: 100 accounts in a database. 50 accounts are assigned "Mr A" and 50 "Mr B". Mr A and Mr B sit down to work - hit find, and type in their name. The form shows 1 account, and when mr A hits next fifty times it should not move on to mr Bs (possibly a "no more matches/records" message?).
I hope this is clear enough - and thanks in advance.
ps - I heard something about one form to search - and a subform to display results - the search criteria is static in form one, where as the subform can be skipped ("next record" pressed). But trust me - Im inexperianced :p and would need a nice newbie friendly description of such technological witchcraft.
I want to combine six different memo fields into one. I found this code and it works to combine two fields so I edited to add a third and it does not do anything.
Many Regions, Many Towers, Many Countries and all..
Has to create a worksheet for Each Region-Tower and Paste the countries' records.
Private Sub Input_Click() Dim Mainrset As Recordset Dim Temp As Variant Set Mainrset = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Query_Form") Mainrset.MoveLast Mainrset.MoveFirst
[Code] .....
The above code is not correct as some Tower/Process are not associated with some countries. Usually What I do is to loop through all the records and look for the changes in the field. Is that the only way?
When I run the following sql (in a query) I enter information once for [enter cty id]. and it all works fine.
What I would like to do now, is write the vba code so that the sql runs multiple times looping through a list of items.
For instance instead of the popup window asking "enter cty id", I'd like to automatically have the code loop through a list. For example a list of 1 through 10.
Then, in the loop vba code:
after item 1 is run, do an export of the results. after item 2, do an export. etc.
Code:
select a.south_index_id, c.cnty_cd, a.southwest_name_source_cd, sp.south_ssn, sp.estimated_birth_dt, [a.LAST_NAME] & ', ' & [a.FIRST_NAME) PERSONNAME], a.BIRTH_DT, a.GENDER_CD, sp.ms_pmi, cnty_person_id FROM SW_alias_name AS a, SW_south_person AS sp, SW_county_pid AS c WHERE EXISTS (select * from SW_alias_name a2 where ucase(a2.last_name) = ucase(a.last_name)
I want to stop/skip appending of those records who match in main data table "MCIGMMS" on the basis [PORTCD] [IGMNO] fields in "PCIGMMS2". When Match found Msg Box appear and appending skip or stop of those records.
i've been working on a sample database today that someone has written some vb code into, which enables the database to merge with some dialler software. basically it's just a hang up and dial button on a form for surveying people.
i've done ok extracting the code for the dial and hangup buttons, referencing the external file and getting my test database to interface with the dialler but it currently allows multiple users to edit the same record, which i need to stop it doing.
the guy that's done the coding says he's more of a vb programmer and not much use in access (he's definitely better than me!) but i should be able to insert some code that will skip to the next record if the record is being worked on with someone else.
i think the piece of code that i need is
Forms("Form1").RecordLocks = 2
the only problem is i don't know what else to type with it or where in the code to insert it.
Hi I have a couple of tables that should have an automathed value. What I need is to get the last RecordId from the table from where we get the last RecordNr and insert the next value (RecordNr) in a new record. I tried to do this autom. in the table by making the RecordNr a numeric Value with a mask for 000 numbers and a +1 as a standard value but it doesn't work. What can I do? Should it be a function/query?
I am creating a query which determines the number of days a payment is delinquent. Is there a function I can use in a query field that would look at the numeric field and if the value of the subject field was: < 60 Days "30-59 days" < 90 Days "60-89 Days" <120 Days "90-119 Days" >=120 Days "120 Days +"
It was my understanding that the IIF function tests for a condition and can only return yes/no results. I seem to remember that SQL had something like a least or most function that would allow me to set maximum value for range of days. I apologize that my question is confusing and hope you can understand what I am trying to accomplish. Thanks for any help
We want to send letters to clients on behalf of our salespeople on a weekly basis from a list of clients in a table. But some salespeople will have 5 letters go out and some will have 20 go out (depending on what amount the salesperson is able to followup on). I can store the weekly letter quantity number in the table no problem, but I am just not sure how to have the query show 5 letters for Bob and 20 letters for Sue. I know about the "Top N" setting in query design, but not sure how to set it to read from the table.
Form A is used for data entry into SampleTable. On this form I have a some fields including these two: ReplicateA, LabBatchCode.
The database contains another table, IndividualSampleTable. This table contains two fields: ReplicateB, LabBatchCodeReplicateB.
When the user enters information into Form A, the data in fields Sample.ReplicateA and Sample.LabBatchCode are used to populate IndividuallSampleTable. But here's the twist: On IndividualSample Table, IndividualSample.ReplicateB needs to be autogenerated (I guess). Then the field IndividualSample.LabBatchCodeReplicateB is comprised of LabBatchCode entered in Form A, concatenated to the IndividualSample.ReplicateB field.
To make it tricker, the number of records added to IndividualSample table is determined by the value supplied on Form A in the field ReplicateA.
So, Form A could look like this: ReplicateA: 3 LabBatchCode: CRBR05151998
IndividualSample table should end up with three records like this: ReplicateB: 1 LabBatchCode: CRBR051519981
ReplicateB: 2 LabBatchCode: CRBR051519982
ReplicateB: 3 LabBatchCode: CRBR051519983
Hope this makes sense! And I appreciate the help!!!!
