I have a query that lists all tables within my access database.what i want it to be able to click the table name from the query list.for example my query list is:
Rawdata
Outcomes
Reporter
Tracker
how would I click on Tracker and open in up the tracker table? is it something like
I have a query that I dump into a table...via Macro. I made changes in the table (User Input in some fields) ..can I requery and not overwrite the inputs? I am new to Access not sure if this is possible?
I want to be able to open a Table as Read Only, so that a user can browse etc., but neither alter nor enter data - I want them to use the Forms for that. How then, using VBA code, do you open a Table as Read Only?
Let's say that there're 2 workers: Worker A, and Worker B, and they are fixing some engines. There's 2 different engines: Engine A, and Engine B. And these workers are fixing these engines for all day, and in the evening they have to register how many engines they've fixed.
And my job is to design Access database for them. I thought it will be very easy to do; I've created table with columns: Date, Worker, Engine, Quantity - so every day Worker A and Worker B can register, that they have repaired some amount of Engines A and Engines B.
But there's a problem that I also have to register how many Engines have arrived to the factory, and how many of them weren't repaired on time (E.g. 15 Engines A have arrived, Worker A fixed 5, Worker B fixed 5 so there's 5 engines left for tomorrow)
I've figured out that I should somehow create table IncomingEngines with columns Date, Engine, Incoming, Fixed, Undone (field Fixed should be completed automatically every day for every engine - it would be a sum of engines A and engines B fixed by worked A and worker B - so I could fill Incoming field manually)
It's easy to create this kind-of Query, but I can't add column to querry, or edit it.
Here i have a situation i have a table where like below
Name | orderno | mail no | contact No | --------------------------------------- a |123 |5555 | 553453 | b |321 |8569 | 52353 | a |123 |2344 | 553453 | c |143 |567 | 553453 | d |173 |6787865| 553453 |
But i need a separate table where the entry of all the entries where a is coming only once.
Let's say that a table has been broken in two and I'd like to rejoin them with a query. Let's say 100 records in table1, 20 records in table 2. Here's a random example, I just made the names up off the top of my head:
PersonTable (100 records) Person # (unique key) Name Address
SpouseTable (20 records) Person # (lookup wizard to Table1, cascading edit/delete relationship, 1 to 1) WeightOfSpouse HeightOfSpouse
Many people aren't "married" and so have no corresponding value in the Spouse table. If I do an inner join on the two tables, on Person#, then it will cut the total # or returned records in the query to 20, to match the total in SpouseTable. Essentially, I want to append the results of SpouseTable to the end of the corresponding rows in PersonTable.
I am trying to display all the fields from Employee table where Employee.TokenID= Rating.TokenID but I only want to display the fields from the Employee Table and not from the rating table. And each record displayed should be distinct by the TokenID....
Please could you advise me if tables have to be linked in order to perform a query on multiple tables? For example searching for a date and matching records on more than one table at the same time.
I'd like to copy data from an excel spreadsheet and paste it into a temp table in Access and then hit a button which will run an append query and append all the data in the temp table to a permenant table.ow to create a temp table?
When I started building forms to fill my junction tables, the example that I looked at based them all off of queries. That's what I've done for the most part. However, this latest subform that I've made and embedded into a main form is based off of a table. Will that cause problems for me down the road? I'm not so far with it that I can't redo it off of a query, I just don't want to!
All using access 2010. I have a multiuser database that I feel would benefit from splitting into a backend with multiple user frontends. My problem is that there are tables from make table queries processed every two weeks that all users need access to. As far as I know; you can not put a table in the backend that you will delete and remake or a temporary table and link to it in the front end. Is there any other way I would be able to split the database and have temporary tables linked from backend to frontend that I am not aware of? Is there another way to creating temporary tables and tables from make queries? This database has 9 users and counting and really needs to be split. r
Anyhoo....I've been trying to study for MOUS Certification in Access 2000. I was going to do a bit of playing around with some practice files today, however an error occured. I could open the database with no problem, but when I went to open a table, I got an error message that simply said "Unknown" and had the OK button below that. This happens on any database that I open.
I was going to go to the Fix & Repair option that is in Access, but it was prompting me for the disks, which are at my sister's house somewhere.* I also did a search in Microsoft's website/support center and found something for the same issue in Access 2002. That was to register a DLL file by running this: regsvr32.exe C:WINDOWSsystem32msjtes40.dll. That got me another error: LoadLibrary (C:WINDOWSsystem32msjtes40.dll") failed. GetLastError returns 0x00000485. Of course, searching on that error code got me nowhere fast.
So, if there's any kind souls out there that have suggestions for me, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!
*I've borrowed this computer from my sister. It's an old winME beast that I've named Demon Spawn because I have been fighting it from the getgo. It took 4 hours to get it to recognize there's a monitor attached and a month & a half to get Internet Explorer to even run. I still think the best thing for this machine is to take it out to an abandoned field and put a bullet in the CPU.
I have a rotating number of tables that are created from excel spreadsheets that are imported. The Tables will change, but when they are there I need to be able to create a query that will merge them all together so I can run one query against all the tables. In SQL I know you can use a * to say Select * From Table_1
Is there a syntax for the From portion so I can say:
Select * From * (AKA all the tables in the Database)?
I have searched for a wildcard for the FROM statement that works like in the select statement but have been unsuccessful at finding an answer. Can anybody help? I'd list the Tables in the from Statement but there are 266 of them. Unless someone knows how to say:
Select * From All tables in a folder with 266 excel spreadsheets
I am trying to construct a query to extract mailing addresses from a table. I have individuals entered into a table (a separate record for each person) but if they are married I want an address such as Mr and Mrs J. Doe so that only one address label is printed off so that only one letter is sent out. If one of them dies then the address should only go to the surviving party eg Mrs J.
So I have a form that has a sub form on it (based off of a junction table), indicating which category a particular project belongs to. It can belong to multiple categories:
ProjectID 100 Category Admin Finance
But I want to run a query to find all of the projects that are both admin and finance. When I do that now, it comes up as two separate records in the query, which is fine... but I have to know the projects before hand to find if it's in both, because it returns heaps of records, anything that says admin or finance... and that defeats the whole purpose. I want the query to show me JUST the projects that have both of those in their subform..
A field in a table can be populated by a lookup up but it has to be done manually or with a form.A "new" table can be created with a query that matches the data.
Is it possible to skip these steps and create a field that automatically populates with the data from another table based on other common data?I can do this in Excel but not sure it can be done in Access.
I have 5 tables in access 2010, 4 of them have data in them and I need to populate the 5th table with all data from the 4 tables. I know you have to create a Union query, but i dont know the sql statement
Table 1 - data table 2 - data table 3 - data table 4 - data table 5 - combine data from table 1, table 2, table 3, table
I have never some across this before but my database keeps throwing a "Too many tables open error" which has taken me a day to get to the bottom of. I believe that the use of a dlookup in one of the queries not cleaning up after itself.
The issue I have now is that even importing the tables into a new database causes this problem as i guess I'm inheriting the same table id issue.
Does anyone know how to clear the table IDs that the dlookup left open ?
Secondly, could anyone suggest a more robust method of looking up one value from another table. Basically I need to look up the USD to GBP rate (one value) for every record in an other table. I cant use a join (trade ccy->fxrate ccy)as there is properties to link on. Ive tried the elookup function I found on the net but performance is still an issue.
Can someone please help me with this run time error I am getting:
"Cannot open any more tables".
We have 2 big forms in our application. One has 6 tabs on it with many datasheets. This form works for a while when entering data. Then about a half-hour into the application, the drop down lists are blank for new data and the "cannot open any more tables" error occurs.
I have cut down the number of tabs from 8 to 6, and decreased the datasheets by 4.
The mdb went from 14 Megs to 9 Megs with some cleanup of obsolete VBA code and redundant GUI elements. I compacted and repaired the database using the menu Tools.
It helped some, but I still get this pesky error. Then the application is useless because there is no more data you can enter.
Is there anything I can do? Any suggestions or a Microsoft web site link someone can share?
I have a form that users can input data into and based on that data it runs a query and generates a report. These reports can be different based on user entered data on the form. My issue is within the report I would like to sum certain fields. The problem with trying to sum theses fields is that they show up on each row so I have hidden duplicates but when trying to sum the field it still trys to count the hidden duplicates thus giving a value that is of no use.
I have tried many methods to sum but one of the problems I continue to run into when I create a text box and build an equation and reference the field I would like to sum is when the report runs it is asking for a value to be entered for the field I am attempting to sum. I shouldn't need to enter a value as I am trying to obtain the value.
