Syntax Error In CONSTRAINT Clause In MAKE TABLE Query
Apr 6, 2008
Can anybody help me understand why I get the error
"Syntax error in CONSTRAINT clause"?
I get it in Access 2003 and Access 2007.
Both are clean installs with no add-ins
Running this code in VBA, or pasting the SQL directly in a query results in the same error.
Sub test()
sTableName = "Test"
sSQL = "CREATE TABLE " & sTableName & "_Config (" _
& "[idConfig] Int Primary Key," _
& "[Config] Memo," _
& "[Instrument] int," _
& "[Serial_No] Text(25)," _
& "[Firmware] int," _
& "[Orientation] int," _
& "[Sensors] int," _
& "[Sensor_Size] float," _
& "[Sensor_1_Distance] float)"
DoCmd.RunSQL sSQL
sSQL = "CREATE TABLE " & sTableName & "_Leader (" _
& "[idLeader] Int Primary Key," _
& "[idGroup] int," _
& "[idFile] int," _
& "[idConfig] int," _
& "[DateTime] DateTime," _
& "[Heading] float, [Pitch] float, [Roll] float," _
& "[Pressure] float, [Depth_BSL] float, [Height_ASB] float,"
_
& "[Min_Valid_Sensor] int, [Max_Valid_Sensor] int," _
& "[ASM_Bed_Level] float," _
& "CONSTRAINT [FK_Test_Leader_idConfig] FOREIGN KEY ([idConfig]) REFERENCES [Test_Config] ([idConfig]) ON DELETE CASCADE ON UPDATE CASCADE" _
& ")"
DoCmd.RunSQL sSQL
End Sub
The first table is created just fine.
And if I leave the constraint clause out, the second table is created also.
If I try to run it as an SQL query right in Access, after the error is delivered, it highlights the word DELETE, and if I reverse the update and delete portions, it highlights the word UPDATE.
I have looked up the clause in Access help and even using their example, i get the same error.
Any help will surely be appreciated!

I am really stuck. I have spent two days searcinh different forums trying to solve my problem. I am trying to create an UPDATE q to my Access database. But I get either the: "Syntax error in query. Incomplete query clause" or "Syntax error in UPDATE query".
First of all here's the URL: www.innotec-as.no/login/Kunder
Login U/P either: "alfen" or "thomas".
The page opening up shows the user info, U/P and adress.
viewing the information is working perfectly - but editing it..no way.
When editing and submiting the data the above errors occour.
Try that and you'll also see the SQL I am trying to execute.
The CODE is as follows:
SQLtemp = "UPDATE 'Brukere' SET"
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & " 'navn' = '" & request("Navn") & "', "
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & " 'epst' = '" & request("Epst") & "', "
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & " 'Pass' = '" & request("Pass") & "', "
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & " 'Firma' = '" & request("Firma") & "', "
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & " 'BAdresse' = '" & request("BAdresse") & "', "
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & " 'BPostAdr' = '" & request("BPostAdr") & "', "
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & " 'PAdresse' = '" & request("PAdresse") & "', "
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & " 'PPostAdr' = '" & request("PPostAdr") & "', "
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & "WHERE 'Bnavn' = '" & request("Bnavn") & "'"
Response.Write(SQLtemp)
Response.End()
conn.Execute(SQLtemp)
rs.Update[/COLOR]
The finished SQL statement looks like this:
UPDATE 'Brukere' SET 'navn' = 'Alf Byman', 'epst' = 'alf@baccara.no', 'Pass' = 'alfen', 'Firma' = '', 'BAdresse' = '', 'BPostAdr' = '', 'PAdresse' = 'sdfg', 'PPostAdr' = '', WHERE 'Bnavn' = 'alfen'
I have tried to user single quotes, doubble quotes, brackets etc. nothing works.
The code I use for connection is as follows:
<!--#include file="../adovbs.inc"-->
<%
dim conn, rs, SQLtemp
' DSNless connection to Access Database
set conn = server.CreateObject ("ADODB.Connection")
rs="DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; "
rs=rs & "PWD=uralfjellet; DBQ=" & server.mappath("../../../../db/kunder.mdb")
conn.Open rs
I'll be very HAPPY for some expert help on this.

Keep getting a syntax error.

Anyone know why?
I have a table that has 12,000 rows. Out of those rows are 1600 uniques. I need to delete all the duplicates. Is this a way to do it?

Hi I realised something adnormal about my asp program..hope someone can advise me on this
When I just to connect to my access DB using Microsoft's access driver(dsn approach), the program run fine and I can access all my tables correctly.
However now when I'm using OLEDB connection to connect instead, I encounter the problem of my program only being able to connect to certain tables in the DB only. The error msg that i received is as shown in the title :
"Syntax error in FROM clause"
I have list my connection string and code below, pls go on reading if you can help me.. thanks a lot !
The code below is my connection string:
<---------------------------------------------
Set cn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
cn.Provider = "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
cn.Properties("Data Source") = Server.Mappath("database/backup_20june/LiansengDB.mdb")
cn.Properties("Jet OLEDBatabase Password") = "P@55word"
cn.Open
................................................
and this is my code to access the tables
<--------------------------------------------
Dim RSlogin
Dim RSlogin_numRows
Set RSlogin = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
RSlogin.ActiveConnection = cn
RSlogin.open("SELECT * FROM User")
.................................................
strangely this code will give me error but if i access another table instead e.g "SELECT Name FROM Products ORDER BY Name ASC", there won't be any error at all...
I 'm really puzzled... any help will be appreciated!

Hi All,
Following is the query, when executed, I am getting the error as mentioned in the subject "Syntax error in FROM clause." The query beautifully works in SQL Server 2000 but not in MS-Access.
select distinct tblBusOperators.OperatorID,tblBusOperators.TradeNa me,tblBusOperators.isCurrent AS CurrOprtr,
tblRouteContracts.[Route No],tblRouteContracts.BusITContractNo,tblRouteContrac ts.isCurrent AS CurrContract
from
tblBusOperators JOINS tblRouteContracts on (tblBusOperators.OperatorId = tblRoutecontracts.OperatorID)
join tlkpmonth on (((tlkpmonth.monthno between 1 and 6) and 2006 =2006) or
((tlkpmonth.monthno between 7 and 12) and 2006=2007))
where tblBusOperators.iscurrent = true
and tblRoutecontracts.iscurrent = true
and not exists (select 1 from tblmsr
where tblMSR.monthno = tlkpmonth.monthno
and tblmsr.yearService = 2006
and tblMSR.[Route No] = tblRouteContracts.[Route No])

I am developing a simple database for students to register courses using Microsoft Access 2010. I have 4 tables: Student, Register, Course, and Section (1 Course can have many Sections).
Then, there is a criteria that a student can only take up to 6 courses. Hence, may I know that where and how can I include this constraint? I believe that it should be in the Macro (Before Change) of the table Register...
My relationship is: Student -> Register <- Section <- Course

I have a combo box on a form where I allow the user to pick an office. The primary key is the bound column which I then want to use in a stored query to limit the query results to the specific office selected. I can easily do this with the docmd.runSQL in the module, but I'd like to use a stored query instead. My exact problem is I can't get the syntax correct in the Where clause in the query design. I use the build feature and get the following: [Forms]![frmReports]![cboOffice] which doesn't work. If I manually put the key value in the Where clause, it works fine. tell me the correct syntax for the Where clause.

Error: Error evaluating check constraint in the validation rule
What does this mean?
I have used a combo box in the table to input into 2 fields - one restricted to numbers 1 to 5 and the other restricted to letters A to E
Message comes up when I try to change the view or press submit. Does it have anything to do with the field type?

Hi folks.. I'm trying to dynamicly create a table in an existing ACCESS database..
Here's wat i'm using:
PHP Code:<%
strDB = "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("../../../imgdbase/vrienden.mdb") & ";Uid=Admin;Pwd=mljiscool;"
sql = "CREATE TABLE " & request("login") & " (id INT(10) PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT, email VARCHAR(155), gevalideerd VARCHAR(10) DEFAULT 'nee', inlogCount INT(10) DEFAULT 0, lastLogin DATETIME)"
Set DBConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
DBConn.Open strDB
DBConn.Execute sql
DBConn.close
Set DBConn=Nothing
%>
Code:I'm getting this error:Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e14'[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error in CREATE TABLE statement./mljnew/welcomeportal/registration/registration/test.asp, line 7
What am I doing wrong ??? The code here is probably the MySql correct code (Access uses different data types / field names ???) Hope somebody can help me out, because I can't find the correct data types anywhere ! (like use TEXT instead of VARCHAR, that's all I know...)
Here's the actual sql i'm using (displayed by response.write sql):
CREATE TABLE roel (id INT(10) PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT, email VARCHAR(155), gevalideerd VARCHAR(10) DEFAULT 'nee', inlogCount INT(10) DEFAULT 0, lastLogin DATETIME)
Thnx !!!!
Roel.

I keep getting a syntax error (missing operator) with this bit of code when executing SQL in VBA.
"WHERE [tbl_Student_Roster].[Student Name]= " & [Forms]![form_Student_Roster]![Student_Name] & ";"
It is part of a larger piece, but the rest works (or does not give me an error).
Any ideas?
Thanks.

In Oracle, you can set up table constraints which constrain data accross mutliple attributes/fields. Can you do this in Access?
For example. I have:
OrderLine(orderNum,orderLineNum,[productNum],date)
I dont want to allow for the same product to be put on one order twice. Therefore, (orderNum,productNum) must be unique, but productNum is not a part of the primary key so it can be repeated in every row for all the database cares. :P
How can I set this up.
In Oracle I would do something like:
CONSTRAINT chk_prod CHECK UNIQUE (orderNum, productNum)
Thanks for any help.

Hello, first time posting, not sure what info you all need. I'm looking for some help with an if/then statement in access query involving dates. Below is the query I am trying to use, along with the error message. Any ideas?
Domestic Violence CME Required?: IIf(([Date of Next Medical License Renewal]-[Date of Last Domestic Violence Credit (2)])>("yyyy",6),"yes","no")
syntax error (comma) in query expression 'IIf(([Date of Next Medical License Renewal]-[Date of Last Domestic Violence Credit (2)])>("yyyy",6),"yes","no")'
The error seems to be in relationship to the number 6. I want a "yes" to show up in the field if the difference is greater then 6 years.

Hello I'm having trouble getting my nested Iif statement to run. Can anyone help??? I've attached a screen shot of the syntax error that I'm receiving. The example code below needs tweaking.
Update [Goodrec-copy3] set [Goodrec-copy3].shortname = Iif (Not Null([shortname]),[Goodrec-copy3].shortname Like "*,JR*" Or ([Goodrec-copy3].[shortname] Like "*, SR*" Or ([Goodrec-copy3].[shortname]) Like "*, II*" Or [Goodrec-copy3].[shortname]) Like "*, III*", InStrRev([shortname])," ",InStr([shortname]," ,")+1,50) &" "& Left([shortname],InStrRev([shortname])," ,")-1) WHERE ((([Goodrec-copy3].[ctype])="I"));
What I'm attempting to accomplish with this query is to keep the field shortname the same if not null and if it doesn't meet the criteria of having a string value of "JR", "SR", "II", or "III". If the field does have a string value of "JR", "SR", "II", or "III" reverse the string (example John Gissom JR) to reflect shortname as such for example: "Gissom JR John".
Thanks in advance!

I am creating a database to analyze prices. I have 2 tables. One table has a bunch of dates, product names and the prices. There are many of the same dates and many of the same products. I.E. a product could get priced one day and than have a different price the next day.The other table has a bunch of information and dates and product names also. The goal is to add a week to the dates in this table and use that date and product name to look up the corresponding price for that date and product and add it to the record.
I am trying to use Dlookup but evey record is then filled with the same price. I am using this Expr1: DLookUp("Price","Qry_Historic_Price","[Date]=#[End Period]# And primary_id ='[primary_id']")...When I run the query I get a message that says "Syntax error in query expression" than a message box that pops and says "Unknown" with only "ok" to click.

I have an asp page which modifies articles in my access database.
I added a field in the db called "Blocco" which is a checkbox field.
The code (working) which the page used before was (I'm copying just the part that modified will cause the problem):
Code:SQLModifica = " UPDATE [Articoli] SET Articoli.Sezione = '"& FSezione &"', Articoli.Autore = '"& FAutore &"', Articoli.Titolo = '"& FTitolo &"', Articoli.Podcast = '"& FPodcast &"', Articoli.tags = '"& Ftags &"', Articoli.Data = '"& FData &"', Articoli.Ora = '"& FOra &"', Articoli.Letture = "& FLetture &", " If FBozza = "si" ThenSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "Articoli.Bozza = True "ElseSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "Articoli.Bozza = False "End IfSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "WHERE Articoli.ID = "& FID &" "If Session("BLOGAdmin") = False ThenSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "AND Articoli.Autore = '"& Session("BLOGNick") &"' "End IfSet RSModifica = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")RSModifica.Open SQLModifica, Conn, 1, 3Set RSModifica = Nothing
After adding a radio type field in the form called Blocco (with yes or no values, working like the existing field "Bozza") I've modified the code adding something to update the db:
Code:SQLModifica = " UPDATE [Articoli] SET Articoli.Sezione = '"& FSezione &"', Articoli.Autore = '"& FAutore &"', Articoli.Titolo = '"& FTitolo &"', Articoli.Podcast = '"& FPodcast &"', Articoli.tags = '"& Ftags &"', Articoli.Data = '"& FData &"', Articoli.Ora = '"& FOra &"', Articoli.Letture = "& FLetture &", "If FBlocco = "si" ThenSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "Articoli.Blocco = True "ElseSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "Articoli.Blocco = False "End ifIf FBozza = "si" ThenSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "Articoli.Bozza = True "ElseSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "Articoli.Bozza = False "End ifSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "WHERE Articoli.ID = "& FID &" "If Session("BLOGAdmin") = False ThenSQLModifica = SQLModifica & "AND Articoli.Autore = '"& Session("BLOGNick") &"' "End IfSet RSModifica = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")RSModifica.Open SQLModifica, Conn, 1, 3Set RSModifica = Nothing
The page itself is loaded with no errors but when the form takes action I get this:
Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'True Articoli.Bozza = False'.
why? I've just used the same code that worked with the field "Bozza" (which is a checkbox field too)
Sorry for my english

Access and receive the following message after trying to run a query: Syntax error (comma) in query expression, followed by the formula I wrote on the Query Builder. I use 4 tables to run the query, but only need to trim some stuff from one of them. This table is called BD_lamosa_corregida and have already selected Expression on the Total row in Design View. This is the formula:
parte: Trim(IIf(IIf(IsError(InStr(1,[Parte],"(",1)),"",InStr(1,[Parte],"(",1))="",[Parte],Left([Parte],IIf(IsError(InStr(1,[Parte],"(",1)),"",InStr(1,[Parte],"(",1))-1)))
The formula is trying to trim the left side of an expression (Part description) which may contain a code number in parenthesis or not, it might also have this parenthesis separated by a space or not.
