Suppress Warnings When Saving Text File?
Oct 12, 2004
How can I suppress the warnings that Excel displays when saving the text file?
These are the messages displayed when saving the file as text:
"The file already exists. Do you want to replace the existing file?" RESPONSE: Yes
"myfile.xls may contain features not compatible with Text..." RESPONSE: Yes
These are the messages displayed when closing the file:
"Do you want to save the changes you made?" RESPONSE: Yes or No - can enter either as no further changes have been made
"The file already exists. Do you want to replace the existing file?" RESPONSE: Yes or No - can enter either as no further changes have been made

I have a button on a form that appends data to a table. When I click the button, I get 2 warnings:
1) "You are about to append 1 row"
2) "Microsoft Access can't append all the record in the append query."
I know I can use docmd.setwarnings = false then set back to true, but I'm only interested in suppressing the 1st warning, and I want the user to see the second warning.
Is there any way to suppress the 1st warning and display the 2nd?

I have a BE database, that when opened, opens a form for saving the results of a query to a text file on the desktop. It works fine, if the full path is entered.
The problem is, I want this saved on any users' desktop. I did some digging and found the %userprofile% variable, which when used, gives me the error.
I understand this should work in both Windows XP and Windows 7, which are the environments the full DB will operate in. So far the "EXPORT" button on the form has the following for the code:
Code:
Private Sub BTN_Export_Click()
DoCmd.TransferText acExportDelim, , "QRY_ExportPublicComment", "C:UsersMark N. McAllisterDesktopPubComExp.txt"
End Sub
When I tried this:
Code:
Private Sub BTN_Export_Click()
Dim strPath As String
strPath ="%userprofile%desktopPubComExp.txt"
DoCmd.TransferText acExportDelim, , "QRY_ExportPublicComment", strPath
End Sub
the error occurs.

I seem to be having problems saving my database files (.MDB) as .MDE files.
I have a database that only contains data (tables).
A second database is used as the interface to this data (it contains forms, reports, and uses linked tables to the data database).
This secong database file is then copied and used my a few users, so that everyone is accessing the same set of data.
I am trying to save the second database as an .MDE file, but under the Tools, Database Utilities option... 'save Database as an MDE' is never highlighted as a viable option. Is there some trick (or conditions) to enable this option?
I am basically doing this so that I can distribute the MDE version of the interface so that users will have limited / no access to be able to modify the code (or get into the table?).
Thank you for any advice or directions you may be able to pass on.

Hi,
I've recently started working on a new database and already have most of my forms, queries and reports ready. However, I've been using a special font that is not available on most PCs. I was wondering whether it was possible to save the font inside the MDB file so that it can be viewed properly on other systems as well ? (Sort of like in Powerpoint).
Another thing (I guess it's impossible but I'll ask anyway) : Is it possible to save the whole Windows Style design (Scroll Bars, Arrows, Icons, Menu colors, etc..) in my database file ?
Thanks for your help,
Daniel.

Hi,
I was wondering if there was a way for a report to be automatically saved as an excel file. Also, the Access database is stored on the company's server so would you be able to choose the path where the excel file would be stored?
Cheers,
Ben

Trying to lock down an application by saving as ACCDE file. Saves OK but when you load application none of the controls work. I.e. button clicks do not launch "Open Form" or " Print Report" commands.But in ACCDB format application works flawlessly.
When I tried on a different machine I get an error message that says too many Table IDs. Odd since I only have 3 forms, 3 tables and 3 reports. Lots of DoCmd's and switching between the 3 forms but not sure why this would create "too many Table IDs"?

I want to send an e-mail with a report as attachment.On the internet i have found two options, and both are not the best solutions.
1. option
Code:
DoCmd.SendObject acSendReport, sReport, acFormatPDF, sMailAdres
With this construction I don't have enough control over the mail, and worse, I get an Outlook message when the mail is sending which I have to answer.
2. option
Code:
Dim oMail As MailItem
Dim oAtt As Attachment
Set oApp = CreateObject("Outlook.application")
Set oMail = oApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)
DoCmd.OpenReport ReportName:=sReport, View:=acViewPreview, WindowMode:=acHidden
Set rpt = Reports(sReport)
[code]...
with this construction I have to enter an existing report.pdf on my filesystem (bold line), but I want to pass the rpt object straight to the mail as an attachment.

I use the below code as part of a database which creates documents and then saves them using data from the form fields.
Every now and again one of the form fields contains a "special" character such as /,@,& and this prevents the file from saving.
Is there a simple addition to the below code to remove special characters from the file name if there is one present?
It causes all sorts of issues as many people don't realise that there has been a problem until it is too late.
Code:
objWord.ActiveDocument.SaveAs2 FileName:="C:UsersPublic" & Forms![Front Page]![Site 2 Name] _
& " " & Forms![Front Page]![Combo79] & " " & "O2" & ".doc"
objWord.ActiveDocument.Close

Any definitive way of exporting a query to an Excel file and then saving it as a new file without saving over the original.
I've tried to remove any confidential info from the code below so it's not exactly the same.
Code:
Dim XLApp As Excel.Application
Dim XLSheet As Excel.Worksheet
Dim tmpRS As DAO.Recordset
Dim strFolder as String
strFolder = ("C:Profiles"& [Name] & "")
[Code] ....
The error seems to be with the SQL statement although that may just be the first error that it got to. I read that you can't refer to a Query if it has a criteria and that you have to write the SQL directly into the code.

hello,
I would like to automate something presently done on a one-by-one basis. Here: a number of text files(containing data) are to be exported into an MS Excel file, with each text file to occupy a different worksheet. Presently, the idea is to use the Data/import external data/import data feature of MS Excel for importing the text files one-by-one into newly created worksheets(within the same workbook).
I would appreciate some advice on how to go about creating a useful MS Access application to achieve the above. I have checked the available Macros in MS Access, but I could not find one to suit my purpose. can anyone pls assist, on how I can get started?

I'm trying to save the contents of a text box into a memo field in a table, but after my code runs i look in the field and it is cut off after a hundred characters or so, and the last few characters are garbled. This is the code:
Code: DoCmd.RunSQL "UPDATE orderheaders SET orderheaders.Comments = [Text127] WHERE orderheaders.OrderNumber = " & GlOrderNumber & ""
orderheaders = table
Text127 = text box
GlOrderNumber = integer variable
Is there a way to do this with only code? (I dont want to do it by binding the text box to the field)

I have a form for meeting records. One text box contains meeting notes, which is linked to ntext variable (SQL linked table) on the underlying table. The database has about 40 users but this particular form get no more than 10 new records per day, not so much activity.
This is the problem: sometimes a user start filling a new record, fill the meeting notes, but when he saves the record the text box gets blank and the record is saved with null value in the text box. This happens randomly but not very frequently.
Sometimes frustrating because the text may contain a full page of text and then when the user save the record all the typing is lost! Text box is with RTF formatting. I suspect it has to do with the Ntext data type of the underlying table. Shall I convert it to varchar(max)?

hello everyone, i really need some detailed help as the deadline is approaching and I need to find a solution for this. Any help would be greatly appreciated
I currently have a batch file that ftps a text file from a Red Hat Linux Server to my W2k C:. I would like to make another command in the batch file that imports this text file into an existing access table. I would like the text file to repopulate the table everytime it is imported. I do not want the data added on to the existing data in the table.
Thank you for your time and insight.!!!:)

Recently
I have noticed that the "warnings" in my access 200o database no longer pop up. As example, if I went to delete a table or record, I used to get a pop up warning from MS Access asking for confirmation. Now the record just deletes without a warning. This seems to be happening with other things too.
Any thoughts ???
Thanks

When I open up my database i get a securoty warning that says
opening"filr name"
this file may not be safe if it contains code that was intended to harm your computer. would you like to continue?
Is there anyway of getting rid of that warning. It's not a huge deal but its one extra step at signing into our database.

I need to open and process the data from a text file on the network.
The first 7 characters of the file name will be the same every day.
The rest of the file name will change from day to day.
There will only be one file in the folder that has those first 7 characters.
There are a total of about 120 text files in the folder every day - give or take - including the one I need to open and read.

Hi Guys,
I'm not sure this would be allowed as it could be maliciously abused, but what I want to do is turn of warnings when a user fires up my DB.
What currently happens is a user gets 3 pop up warnings in a row the first time they use the DB with essentially the same warnings and "do you want to run this" questions.
The next time the user runs the DB they only get one warning.
On another thread I was told how to turn warnings on and off within the database:
http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?p=499732#post499732
'Turn warnings on & Hourglass on
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.Hourglass True
Code in routine that would generate warnings goes here.
'Turn warnings on & Hourglass off
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
DoCmd.Hourglass False
What I would like is some way to replicate the functionality for the DB. Is this possible?
Thanks in advance,
Keith.

I need to build a SQL statement (several actually) which will be appending/deleting/updating data.
I would prefer to turn off warnings so that I don't have to click on "Yes" 9 times per operation.
However, I don't want to just turn off warnings, as if a certain operation does anything but append/update/delete 1 record, I need to know. Is there a way to determine how many records are going to be appended/deleted/updated and if it's not 1, then run some other code?

I have some vba where I'm importing a text file and splitting it out into a table. For the most part its working just fine.
But I have a line of data that I need to pull out the string right after "Old" - Murphy and right after "New" ZMurphy
Acc# : 111111 This is test data, Person : 22222 Old Murphy New ZMurphy
I'm thinking Instr() could do this but I'm unable to get it to work.
I am using Access 2010...

I'm trying to figure out at what point an error message occurs while a database is closing. This problem only occurs if someone clicks on the red close button on the top right of the screen when there are several forms open. If the user exists normally there is NO problem.
I am attempting to use the print statement to write to a text file to track what is happening as the database shuts down. Unfortunately, the open (print) statement, when issued, zaps any prior contents which precludes having a full printed record. I am hoping for a print syntax that would allow appending.
Code:
Open "ErrorReport.txt" for Output as #1
Appended text to the file to show what is happening in that event.
Close #1
The program, in closing, does stop with an error message that a certain file can't be found. But when I click on debug, the program simply closes. I have also commented out VBA references to the file that can't be found, but the error still persists .

I thought I had this figured out, but apparently am still missing something...
When I start my DB, I get the default 'Security Warning' message every time asking if I want to cancel or continue... I thought this was an options setting under the Tools/Macro/Security setting. However, when I change this setting (default is Medium) to Low, exit Access and restart the DB I get the same warning message and the security setting is back to medium.
Am I in the right area to fix this? Why would my settings default back?
Thanks
