Tables :: Adding Records - Unpredictable Results
Jun 27, 2015
I have three tables
MyForms
MyControls
MyLanguage
There is a 1 to many relationship between MyForms and MyControls
There is a one to many relationship between MyControls and MyLanguage
I have a function that populates these tables.
For each form in the system I store 1 record on the MyForms table.
I then store 1 record for each control in the form on MyControls.
For each control I store N (currently 2) records on MyLanguage.
This all works fine up to a point. I noticed that after a time records were no longer getting stored on MyControls and MyLanguage.
The only way around this was to delete all records on all files (I have cascade delete so only need to delete MyForms) and the Compat and Repair the database. The compact and repair doesn't work unless I delete the records first.
It seems to go astray when the MyControls table hits 14-1500 records (MyLanguage 28-3000).
I've stepped through the code line by line and the store of the records appears to go through fine.

Hi there,
I'm trying to add an image into a table. I know I can do it manually by creating an OLE Object and so forth. I am actually trying to get the user to enter in the path of the image and add it into the record/table.
Basically this is for a database that will hold a scanned image of a certificate associated with each person entered into the database. Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

I am new to Access here, and looking to start up a database that will contain data for thousands of footballers.
I have on one table ("Directory"), all 5000+ players, with nationalities, names etc, and on another ("Flags"), I have all nations of the world and their respective flags (as an attachment).
How do I add the flag of a players nation into the "Directory" table for each record? Is there a quick way? I've tried "Lookup" but it won't let me do it for images, I've tried "Relationships" but without success.....surely I don't have to go through the "add attachment" process for all 5000 records?

OK I'm totally lost again.
What I want to do is;
Use one form to add records into several tables.
I have seperated my data into seperate tables and set up one to many relationships.
tblincident
--------------
Key#
Report#
Time
Date
Location
tblPerson
----------------
Key#
Last Name
First Name
Middle Name
Address
etc.
tblItem
----------------
Key#
Make
Model
Serial#
etc.
What i want to do is use one form to enter all this data into the different tables.
There can only be one record in tblIncident that can match multiple records in the other tables.
i.e. for each record in tblIncident, I want to be able to have the capability to have as many persons related to that incident as I need.
I was thinking about setting up a tabctl for the data that has to be entered for tblIncident and then change the property setting for it to go away and then have the next tabctl appear in it's place for entering data into the next table. The problem I am having is that apparently I can only have one table as the control source for the form.
So next I tried using subforms, but that isn't working either. I can't figure out how to make the subform appear in a specific place on my form, sized in specific dimensions I want where I want.
I am just starting to learn about this relationships stuff and it's kind of difficult. How do you make it where you can do this from one form? Do I need to make a query of some sort?
Any help is appreciated.

What I have is a database that I have done some tweaking on and in the meantime the original db has been in use which has added around 200 or so more records in the table.
What I would like to do is to just update the db that I have been working on with the older db table(the one who has the additional 200 records).
EX. DB A(Old DB, Newer Table) DB B(New DB, Older Table)
I want to put DB A table into DB B
Is this a simple fix? Or do I need to write some sort of query to update the records in the old table? I've tried to export the excel file and then import but it puts it in unrelated objects and then my switchboard or nothing works.

I have an alphanumeric primary key that goes
REF0001
REF0002
REF0003
e.t.c.
When i get to REF9999 and enter REF10000 it does not store it after REF9999 but stores it after REF100. Why is this ?
Is there a quick way that i can add leading 0's onto my records. So it will read
REF000001
REF000002
REF000003

i have an unbound form with the following code which works as it should
Code:
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("tbl_Courses", dbOpenDynaset)
With rst
.AddNew
rst!DateCreated = DateCreated
rst!Originator = Originator
[code]....
I also need to add other text fields from the unbound form to another table but can't seem to work out how to do it.

Table in my access 2010 is configured to have a unique records (no duplicates)which has now records more than 2000 so i copied the table and pasted Structure only. what i would like to have is that new table which presently is empty should not add any record which is already available in old table. While entering data in new table i would like users to see the error if they try to enter the record which was previously entered in old table.

I have a table with more than 60 fields and need to update it with records from another Access file with a table with an identical data structure.
Is it better to run an update query or an append query (i would have to delete the original records in the target table first) or a union query?
If I run an update query I will have to manually add each field to the query.
The update query will not add 'new' records. If I run an append it is quicker because I can use the * to match all fields, but i will have to delete the 'old' records first, as both tables use autonumber for the PK so the PK ID will be the same in each table (will get a key violation error).
If I import the 'new' table and run a union query it will match the fields and add the new records, but then i will have to create new table from that query.

Supposing you have 4 Tables
1.)User
2.)Admin
3.)Teacher
4.)Pupil
Now the "User" table has the ff. fields: ID(auto num),FName,MName,LName,User,Pass,Type.
Now what I want to do is, if I add a new a record in the table "User" and if the record has the data "Admin" in the field "Type" then the record should also be saved in the table "Admin" but if the data is "Teacher" or "Pupil" then it should be also saved in their respective tables.
Question is: Is that possible? If yes, then how??

Okay I had an idea and I thought I might get ffedback as I am relatively new to this. I went through a period a couple of years ago when I used access alot and was becoming familiar with VBA etc but I havent touched it in 2 years so Im pretty rusty.
I am running a study and need to have to create a database that:
a. collects data about participants
b. Has a number of questionnaires (5), each of which can be filled out by participants.
THe main table has a number of fields that collects info about the participants the most important of which will be the ParticipantID - an automatically generated number which is my primary key.
In table 2/form 2 I will host questionnaire one. This will be linked to Table 1/Form 1 (Particpant Information) by this tables primary key - also the Participant ID. The relationship will be 1:1. Each participant can only have one Participant ID and will only need to fill out questionnaire one once.
Is it possible that when I add a new participant to the Participant Information table/form I also automatically create a record in Table 2/Form 2 (Questionnaire 1), as well as Table 3/Form3 (Questionnaire 2) and so on so that they have the same ParticipantID...?
I was reading a similar query somewhere else and they said to use the Form_AfterInsert Event command? Is this right (see here http://www.pcreview.co.uk/forums/thread-1687644.php)?
I feel a bit stupid but I am willing to learn and try new things Once I get started I think I will be okay. If you could steer me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.

I've received a database that is a digitized population register from the 19th century. All adults have been entered into the database, but all children are missing.
Every person has a unique number that corresponds with the original source (this variable is called 'no', this is not the autonumber primary key thing). Instead of searching in the original source which numbers are still missing, I would like to add the missing numbers (with no additional information, because I still need to type that in).
For example, the table now looks like this:
no - name_last - name_first - occupation etc
1 Smith Henry baker
2 Smith Mary
5 Williams John butcher
6 and so on
So 3 and 4 are missing.
How can I add these missing numbers automatically?

I have built a custom search form in a MS Access 2010 database so that users can find specific records to edit. After entering the search criteria and hitting a Search button, another form opens up that shows the search results. This second form includes a command button for generating a report of the search results.
Right now, the custom search form and the search results form are both working properly, but the search results report is showing every record in the database instead of just the search results. This is true whether I access the report via the command button in the form or the navigation pane. I'm not sure if I need to correct my VBA code or the report's properties.

I have built a qry that initially shows the correct information. For example.
tblContent has 289 records with a Type = Class.
I built a Query to select from tblContent Type = Class and I get 289 records. I add additional criteria of Progress <>"Not Scheduled", I then get 206 records. I then add additional criteria Last Name <>"Demo" And <>"Care" And <>"Support". This brings up 200 records, but the query appears to duplicate each record 3 times. I do not have 3 of the same types of records.
The SQL Statement is below
SELECT tblProfile.LoginName, tblProfile.FirstName, tblProfile.LastName, tblProfile.Organization, tblProfile.CostCenter, tblContent.Title, tblContent.Type, tblContent.Code, tblContent.[Date Assigned], tblContent.[Date Started], tblContent.[Last Accessed], tblContent.Progress, tblContent.[Date Completed]
FROM tblProfile INNER JOIN tblContent ON tblProfile.LoginName = tblContent.LoginName
WHERE (((tblProfile.LastName)<>"Demo" And (tblProfile.LastName)<>"Care" And (tblProfile.LastName)<>"Support") AND ((tblContent.Type)="Class") AND ((tblContent.Progress)<>"Not Scheduled"));
The qry is named qryPhysical Class. I have provided the link to view the database. Can you help me?

I am new with Access and I am setting up a data base that will have 16 tables and each table with have over 3,000 customers. The reason for 16 tables is that we will be inputting information on a monthly basis for each of these customers (12 of the tables) and I also have 4 tables that will be perfomring different "tasks" for each customer (one is just to keep the notes we make for each customer, one will be to show any billing done, one is going to be a summary of the entire year along with some additioanl information not entered elsewhere and the final one is our customer information table).
The customer account number is the primary key for all of my tables.I want to know how I can add a new customer (either using query or form) at one time that will populate all the tables. Right now I have everything set up as tables but I can set up queries if need be.

I am using Access 2007 on my front-end and SQL Server 2014 on the back-end. I have a table of Car Dealers and a table of contacts at the dealerships. These tables are SQL tables. The user can select a dealer and then see everyone that works at that dealership. When they look at this there is a field called Email. This is a hyperlink that they can click on to open Outlook and send an email. The table called DealerEmails is an Access table. My table layout is:
Dbo_Dealers
------------------
ID (PK)
DealerName
DealerAddress
DealerCity
DealerState
DealerZip
DealerPhone
ModifiedBy
ModifiedDate
Dbo_DealerContact
---------------------------
ID (PK)
LastName
FirstName
Postion
DealerID (FK)
ModifiedBy
ModifiedDate
DealerEmails
-----------------
ID (PK)
DealerContactID (FK)
Email
ModifiedBy
ModifiedDate
Now I'm trying to write the code to add a new contact. My code works but I need to obtain the AutoNumber from When I add a new record to the table dbo_DealerContact. My code is:
Code:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Dim adoDealerContacts As New ADODB.Recordset
Dim daoDealerEmails As DAO.Recordset
Private Sub cmdSave_Click()
[Code] ....
I tried to add Me.Dirty=False, but this still returned a value of 0 into my variable intDealerContactID.
I also tried moving intDealerContactID = .Fields("ID").Value outside of the With block.
I'm aware that there is a command in SQL @@Identity. But I'm unsure how to use it in this context.
Is there a way to get the primary key from dbo_DealerContacts so I can insert that into my Emails table?

I have a table with:
A dDataID (sequential auto-number)
B dDateTimeEntered (date/time field)
C dFactoryOrder (text)
D dSpecificationID (number)
E dStartWeek (text)
F dIncreasingDecreasing (text, values are limited to "Increasing", "Decreasing", or "NA")
I need a query to look up the last 9 values where C, D, and E match variables from a form, then tell me how many "Increasing" values are contained within that set. I want to store the final value in a combo box on the form. I tried writing the code and this is what I got - design view attached as a pic and SQL below. It looks like the "Top 9" is sorting on the Expr1 field, which isn't what I want, but I'm not sure how to force it to use dDataID or dDateTimeEntered to figure out which records to use.
SQL:
SELECT TOP 9 Sum(IIf([tblData]![dIncreasingDecreasing]="Increasing",1,0)) AS Expr1
FROM tblData
WHERE (((tblData.dFactoryOrder)=[Forms]![frmDataEntryDisplay]![dFactoryOrder]) AND ((tblData.dSpecificationID)=[Forms]![frmDataEntryDisplay]![dSpecificationID]) AND ((tblData.dStartWeek)=[Forms]![frmDataEntryDisplay]![dStartWeek]));

I am trying to build a query that allows me to enter data over two tables that are related. I'm using MS Access 97 if that makes a difference. For example
I have two tables like the following
Class
Class Id (auto number, primary key)
Class Name (text)
Class Teacher (text)
Class Room (text)
Student
Student ID (auto number. primary key)
Student Name (text)
Student Course (text)
Class Id (number, secondary key)
I tried creating a query that allowed data entry for the following fields
Student Name
Class Name
It first has the following error when trying to enter data in both the feilds;
The Microsoft Jet database engine can't find a record in the table 'Class' with key matching field(s)".
So i tried adding the record in the table class, but now i cant even see it in the query.
Any ideas?

I've got some tables I pulled off GeoNames.org that I need to extract data from. One table has everything I need except the counties listed in it. Instead of that, it gives a county code. The other table has the actual county names associated with those codes.In the main table, country and state are listed similar to "US" and "WA", representing U.S.A. and Washington state, with the city name ("Seattle") also displayed in a separate field. A county may be displayed as a county code of 003 or 101, or any such 3-digit number. The thing is, multiple counties can have the same county code, since each state's counties start their numbering over at 001, 003, 005, etc.In the county table, one column has the country, state, and county code in one field similar to US.WA.003, and the county name ("King County") in another field.What I need to do with this info is create a new table that will have only the country, state, county, and city names (omitting the text "County", if possible). So, my final result would be: US, WA, King, SeattleI just don't know how to pull the data from each table while merging the county information.The reason I haven't included the examples of the tables I'm using is because I'm hoping to be able to put together the query myself, with the help you all can provide me with. Alot of times, there are well-intentioned people who are kind enough to layout everything exactly as you need it to come up with finished results, and I'd just like to get the opportunity to take a shot at it myself first. If I can't get it from there, believe me, I'll be back for more help.Thanks in advance.

I enter personnel data into a table through a form. The same person may have multiple records in the table. With each record there are yes/no boxes to be checked if that person is verified at a certain station. Let's say PERSON A has six records in the table. Let's say on one of those records he has StaPrimary yes/no box checked (or true).
I need a query to do the following: My query is to find out if any person listed in the table does not have any StaPrimary yes/no boxes checked. My dilemma is when I do the query if Person A has six records and one of the records has the StaPrimary yes/no box checked his name will still show up in the query because he has other recrods with the StaPrimary yes/no box not checked. I want to check all of each persons records in the table and if they have one StaPrimary yes/no box checked I do not want there name to show up in the query. How do I do that?
Thanks for your help

I already ran a query that shows me the duplicate records of my original table. Now I m looking for a way to
a) delete all duplicate records (not just specific ones by using a criteria) and
b) unite the unique records (result of a)) with the original ones that were not displayed with the "find-duplicates-query" ....

Is there a way that I can create a field called 'Actors' in the table 'Films' and for the drop down only to display those people who have been categorized as an actor?
