I have a linked ODBC table in my database that contains data like this -
Code:
Task Serial CrewAmount
00_INSTALL ENGINE INTO PEDESTAL STAND 707308AS30.2
00_INSTALL ENGINE INTO PEDESTAL STAND 707308OMB0.2
01_BORESCOPE INSPECTION 706496AS114.24
01_BORESCOPE INSPECTION 706496AS223.24
[Code] .....
What I would like to do is remove the duplicate values for the Task field, but show how much time each Crew has spent on each Task per Serial. The end result would look like this -
Code:
Task SerialAS1AS2AS3OMAOMB
01_BORESCOPE INSPECTION 70649614.2423.2428.78
00_INSTALL ENGINE INTO PEDESTAL STAND 7073080.20.2
01_INSTALL OIL TANK 7073085.67
[Code] ....
What is the best way to achieve this result? I've played around with Append queries, union queries etc, but nothing seems to give me the result I'm after.
I have a table in MS Access 2010 that is a link to an external data file in .csv format. I assumed that it was not possible to append data to a linked table until recently. I appended 3 records to the linked table and discovered that the 3 records were appended to the table and the external data file it was linked to.
I am assisting my employer by combining two databases into one. Both databases have the same field "structure" but the data differs. When creating my append query.
I use Cognos to pull raw data from Oracle. I take this data and put it into Access 2010 tables to then run queries. Because the people creating the data in Oracle are often slow, I run back data to catch missed information, typically two months. For October, for example, I'll run October and also September and August.While I have new data, I also have a great deal of duplicate data. How can I ensure that I append only the new data and exclude the duplicate data?
I have 3 separate tables with the following fields: Year; Name of School; Emis No. (Primary Key); No. wrote; No. passed; Pass %. These tables were created in Excel and imported in Access.
I would like to do the following (see table below): 1. create a form that would allow me to view all the data per school in datasheet view and also allow me to enter new data annually; 2. create a new table where this information can be stored .

I'm fairly new to Access, but have set up a database containing 8 normalized tables. I would like to know if it's possible to update all those tables by importing an Excel file into each table, or importing the Excel file into one Access table and then appending that table to those 8 tables. AND STILL MAINTAIN THE RELATIONSHIPS. The Help directory only talks about importing or appending into one table.
I have a single table database for inventory. Every 3 months or so, some records get changed or updated. My manager wants to keep an archive of all of the records that have been changed so we can go back and look at an history of all of the records. So, My thought is to create an "Archive" table, appended all of the current records to it. Then, when changes are made, create an Append Query, or what ever works, to copy just the changed records from the Main to the Archive table. There are only 200 items in the inventory so it is not a large database.
I want to import an Excel spreadsheet into a table in my Access DB. I am using following: DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, 0, "tblSchedule", "C:mailinimport.xls", false This code works but it is appending to the table. What is the best way to update the table - or would it be best to delete the old table and then to create a new one to import tha data into? If the latter would be most elegant solution, can anyone help with some code that would do this ? Thanks Mat
I currently have an unnormalized table that consists of individuals (employee profiles) which currently has a field for attachments. I am using the "attachments" for photographs of each employee however I dont want to maintain photographs for former employees, or if I do not forever. I was told to normalize the table by removing the "attachment" field and placing it in a new table with referene to the employeeID.
Since I currently have something like 200+ records where I want to relocate the employee picture, i tried to create a make table query off the origional table and only referencing the employeeid and "attachment" to the new table however I keep getting an error when running the query. The error indicates something to the affect of having multiple values.
I am developing a database for incoming inspection. I have set up two tables, one with spec callouts per product and the other table contains fields where I want the specs from the tblSpec table to be Append into the tblMeasurement table. Now, within the tblMeasurement table (where I am trying to append specs from the tblSpecs table into), I also have additional fields for actual measurements from received goods.
My plan is as I go through and select the Vendor, it populates the associated products to that vendor (no problem there). When I want to select the product, I would like the specs from the tblSpecs to dumped into the tblmeasurement table that correlates to that product on the form.
How can I have this automatically append after selecting the product? I am not sure if I have my relationships set up correctly or not, but I cannot see to append when I am trying to execute this function while in Query view. I have the db attached in a zipped format.
I have to import a file from an external website into a table (tableA) that I have established. The issue is that I don't need all that data, just specific ones (the website does not allow me to select the specific data to export). I created another table (tableB) to capture the data that I require for my report.
How do I take raw data from tableA to append to tableB the required fields that I want?
After appending data in a table, I open a particular form. I want to display only the last record. I've added the code (DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acLast) to the On Load and On Open properties without success (opens first record).
I have 1200 tables (precipitation data) that I need to aggregate into 1 table for summary and statistical operations. I need to retain each table's name: <month_year>. Is there a way to insert a column with the source table title while I am appending? Or should I go about this in a completely different way?
whats the best way of appending tbl_orders and the related data in tbl_order details to the two identical archive tables when the "COMPLETE" column is "YES" in tbl_orders
I have two auto-numbered tables, each with one-to-many relationships with a couple of other tables.
The two auto-numbered tables have identical column properties, as do the tables each are linked to.
How can I set up an append query to append records from one of these tables into the other, but ensure that all of the links stay intact? (Right now, the two tables duplicate ID numbers.)
Firstly let me thankyou for your help because I feel this may be a difficult question.
I have a stock control db that records transactions through purchase orders, which allocates each line item (product) in a purchase order to an employee and a project it is destined for. I have three tables, one for purchase orders, one for transactions and one for products.
I then have a seperate table for stock in and out with a two other look ups for projects and employees.
Now sometimes a product may become a stock item as it is in surplus and not used for the project.
My problem is how do I re-allocate the product as a stock item then when it is used allocated it to another project.
Basically we use an internal unique number for each purchase order and i have a query set up that will recall each product in a purchase order. The reason for this is to save time updating goods recieved when an order turns up as i call all the item in a purchase order in one go rather than going to each product one at a time to update.
I think the db may be to advanced in the set up and feel a restructure of the db is the only solution but hopefully i not. I am no means an advanced user buit have done ok so far in seeting this db up e.g. my knowledge of vba is limited etc.
This has only just come up in what is needed so it is an after thought, however is very important for the operation of the db as a stock control system.
I have two tables "Tab_Issue_1" and "Tab_Issue_2". Tab_Issue_1 has two fields "Issue" and "AssignedTo". Tab_Issue_2 has the same fields. However, the "AssignedTo" is a multi-value field in both tables. I want to append data from Tab_Issue_1 into Tab_Issue_2. I use the following SQL but it pops up this message "An INSERT INTO query can not contain a multi-valued field".
[SQL] INSERT INTO Tab_Issues_1 ( Title, AssignedTo ) SELECT Tab_Issues_2.Title, Tab_Issues_2.AssignedTo FROM Tab_Issues_2; [SQL]
How do you import data from excel using fields that already exist? In other words, I need Access to append the data to the records rather than try and add it to the recordset and throw a tizzy when duplicates are created.
:( my database is a basic Customer Product Orders model. i am have trouble when i try to append orders to my archiveOrders table. this error appears. Microsoft Access can't append all the records in the append query. Aicrosoft Access set 0 fields to Null due to type conversion failuer, and it didn't add 1 records to the table due to key violation, 0 records due to lock violation, and 0 records due to validation rule violation. im very new to Access and there other thread i kinda couldn't understand :P. i have added my database and the current append query i im designing is called qappOrders. i really do need help, don't no where to start:(
I have a table that has records of accounts, actions taken, and operator ids. Unfortunately, the records are incomplete. The report was written poorly so that there is a row that contains data in all three fields for all subsequent rows there is only the action taken, no account or operator. So my table looks like that the records below. As you can imagine this means that I cannot write any useful queries on what happened on various accounts. How I can append the account number to every row that pertains to that account number?
I have about 100 or so tables that I need to append back into one table :eek:
However all of these 100 tables all begin with the number 100 at the beggining. I know that you can append tables - but as far as I know you can only do one at a time. Is there any easy way to do this - for example writing a small SQL statement - saying select all tables that begin with 100* and then append into a master table :confused:
Alternatively are there any programs on the net that can do this (I just wrote a massive macro to import them from a text file in to access- not realising this problem would happen!) :(
Unfortunately each of the tables has the first row as the column heading too?
I am exporting data from Access (2000) to Excel using a criteria form. I would like to append data to the Excel sheet without clearing the current data. How can I perform this function?
Here is part of my code:
<BEGIN CODE> Set myXL = CreateObject("Excel.Application") Set myWB = myXL.Workbooks.Open("C:WO_Activity_Report.xls") myWB.Sheets ("WO_Activity_Report") myWB.Save myXL.Quit Set myXL = Nothing <END CODE>
