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?
View RepliesI am trying to create a table from a form. The form has several fields but I need to take the value from 4 separate combo boxes ([cr] +[br] +[tr] and add them, then add the value from one more combo box [inc] to be my beginning value in a table.
I then need to add the last value [inc] to the total and that become the next line in the table. I would the like to add this value [inc] an infinite number of times until it reaches a max number.
The scenario would be something like this
cr=3 br=2 tr=3 inc=1.5
So the first total would be 9.5. Then every row after that would be plus 1.5
11
12.5
14
15.5
17
and so on.
This would be a temp table that I would run a query on to let an operator know lengths they can choose from in a combo box. I don't know if this is even possible.
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
View 14 Replies View RelatedI need to extract a specific number of records into a table using a MakeTable or Append command using a temp variable, e.g. TempK&SA. Previously on the forum I was shown how code could be added to the OnOpen function to use a temp variable to select a specific number of records to report. ACCESS does not have the OnOpen function in the design view of a query like in the report. It does allow a SELECT TOP but only with fixed variables or percents (e.g. 25 in the code below).
The beginning code for the make table query (where 25 is the number of records added) is:
INSERT INTO [Output] ( RndNo, PointBiserial, BloomsTax, DateRevised, Exam1, Status, Exam2, Exam3, Exam4, [NCCPAKnowledge&Skills] )
SELECT TOP 25 TestBank.RndNo, TestBank.PointBiserial, TestBank.BloomsTax, TestBank.DateRevised, TestBank.Exam1, TestBank.Status, TestBank.Exam2, TestBank.Exam3, TestBank.Exam4, TestBank.[NCCPAKnowledge&Skills], *
FROM TestBank
WHERE (((TestBank.PointBiserial) Is Null Or (TestBank.PointBiserial) Between [TempVars]![TempPointBiserialLow] And .....
how to modify the code to allow a temp variable to determine the number of records to append to another table would be gratefully received. (This process then is repeated for a total of 7 append tables with different temp variables.)
I'm looking into storing query data in temp tables for my reports run better. From what I'm reading, it seems best to have the temp tables in a separate db, and to break the links to avoid bloating of the FE database. I'm unsure how to do this with VBA, especially since my temp database will be password protected. When do I break the link - when I close the FE database?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have two tables [A and B]. I combine these tables with a query. I create a new table [C] with data from the query with append...So far this works..
My problem: I change data in the first two tables [A and B].. How can I auto update the data in the new table [C]
Please a solution!
Here's the scenario:
I create a temp table structure, which works fine.
I create a recordset from SQL pulling data from a DB2 connection. This works fine.
I want to put the entire recordset result into the temp table.
I have a working means of doing this, but it is very inefficient and leaves the user staring at an hourglass for a minute or two.
What I am currently doing is iterating through each record of the recordset and appending it to the temp table. Desired results, yes, but takes way too much time.
Is there any way to simply 'dump' an entire dataset into the table, instead of on a record-by-record basis?
Here's some code from how I am currently doing things:
Set cmdP1 = New ADODB.Command
Set cmdP1.ActiveConnection = cnnP1
cmdP1.CommandText = "SELECT DISTINCT distribution_id FROM " & sDB & " ORDER BY distribution_id"
Set rstP1 = cmdP1.Execute
Do Until rstP1.EOF
With rst_Temp
.AddNew
.Fields!distribution_id = rstP1!distribution_id
.Update
End With
rstP1.MoveNext
Loop
Any help will be most appreciated! Thanks!

Hoping someone can help me with this DELETE query. I have a Main table that's being updated by a Temp table that's an exact copy of the Main table but with a subset of records.
1) Insert records from Temp table NOT found in the Main table - this query I have worked out below - not tested, but the results look correct.
Need Help Here...
2) Delete Records from the Main that are not found in Temp table with an exception...only DELETE records where certain key fields are matching. i.e. If S.CAD_NAME, lngStoreNumber are a match to what's in the Main table. While
Temp table:
lngStoreNumber - CAD_NAME - lngcomponentSerial
1 - "CHK" - a
1 - "STK" - a
2 - "CHK" - a
Main table
lngStoreNumber - CAD_NAME - lngcomponentSerial
1 - "CHK" - a - LEAVE (EXISTS In Both Tables)
1 - "CHK" - b - DELETE (lngStoreNumber & CAD_NAME composite Found /lngcomponentSerial NOT Found in Temp)
1 - "STK" - a - LEAVE (EXISTS In Both Tables)
1 - "RMM" - a - LEAVE (lngStoreNumber & CAD_NAME NOT Found in Temp)
2 - "STK" - a - LEAVE (lngStoreNumber & CAD_NAME NOT Found in Temp)
2 - "CHK" - b - DELETE (lngStoreNumber & CAD_NAME composite Found/lngcomponentSerial NOT Found in Temp)
3 - "CHK" - a - LEAVE (lngStoreNumber = 3 Not in Temp table Subset)
Rule: Only delete the records for a particular CAD_NAME and lngStoreNumber from the Main table leaving all other CAD_NAME/lngStoreNumbers.
I'm running these updates in batches of lngStoreNumber. So the Temp table will only contain subsets of what's to be deleted from the Main table thus the need to link on the key fields only NOT to delete a Subset of lngStoreNumber/CAD_NAME. I think I've tried every possible query that doesn't work.
Here is query #1 to insert records missing from the Main table that exist in the Temp table. I think what I need is a variation of this???
SELECT D.*
FROM Main AS S RIGHT JOIN Temp AS D ON (S.CAD_NAME=D.CAD_NAME) AND (S.lngcomponentSerial=D.lngcomponentSerial) AND (S.lngStoreNumber=D.lngStoreNumber)
WHERE S.lngcomponentSerial is null AND S.CAD_NAME is null AND S.lngStoreNumber is null;
THANKS.
I'm trying to copy the structure of a table to make a temp table. I'm using CopyObject (which also copies the data). So when I delete the data from the temp table, it also deletes data from the source table. Is the data linked? It should just be deleted from the temp table. Below is the beginning of the code. I've stepped through, and at the last step shown, the data in the source table deletes.
Code:
Dim strFile As String
Dim temp As String
Dim tbl As String
Dim db As DAO.Database
' error handle
On Error GoTo F_Error

I have the following code, the purpose of the code is that to take all rows from each table to append them into one table.

Dim tblString, I As Integer
Dim rstFrom As Recordset, rst2 As Recordset

Set db = CurrentDb
Set rst2 = db.OpenRecordset("Table1", dbOpenDynaset)

Is it possible to have a form that will filter my data to what i need, and place in a temperary table and then be able to display it in a report??? So I already have a filtered form, however I would like to be able to creat reports on the fly. So I will not need all my fields from my table everytime I filter. So If I create a report I can choose the fields that I need, however this is done will all records in my table and I would like to only use the data I have filters. What way would be best to accomplish this?? I already have the ability to load the report wizard by a command button. I just dont know the best way to use my filtered data with it. Any help would be great. thanks

Hi gurus
I have a smallish problem
I have two tables that I need to join togther - normally no problem
I have one table with 1 event on it- easy
however if I have more than 1 event on it I have another table that opens up and I add multiple evnets to it
main id number 12345 with 1 event on it and
23456 may have 20 events on it
on my other table (with multiples on it) i have this autonumbered (this is great unique id - now i need to make a temp table to include boths sets of data in one file
1 event table - easy
multi event tabel I want it to get the main refernce fromt he first table (using 23456 as the example) and have it list these in the table - main refer 23456-multi table unique ref number 23456-1 , 23456-2
so my table should have
12345
23456-1
23456-2
23456-etc
I have been using append qry to make tables - any pointers would be great

Hey all-
I'm trying to create a simple 1 field temp table to populate a combo box with the name of the current user and the word "Company." However, after the user closes the form (or as soon as the Temp table is no longer necessary) I would like to delete the table. I can create the table, the fields, add the data, and populate the combo box just fine, but I'm having problems deleting the table after I'm done. I keep getting the error:
Run-Time Error 3211: The database engine could not lock table 'Temp' because it is already in use by another person or process.
here's my code:
Code:Option Compare DatabaseDim dbRoofing As DAO.Database Private Sub Form_Close()dbRoofing.TableDefs.Delete "Temp" 'where i get caught when i close the formEnd Sub Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)Set dbRoofing = CurrentDb Dim tblTemp As TableDefDim rcdTemp As DAO.Recordset Set tblTemp = dbRoofing.CreateTableDef("Temp")tblTemp.Fields.Append tblTemp.CreateField("Owner", dbText)dbRoofing.TableDefs.Append tblTemp Set rcdTemp = dbRoofing.OpenRecordset("Temp", dbOpenDynaset)With rcdTemp.AddNew!Owner = CurrentUser.Update.AddNew!Owner = "Company".Update.CloseEnd WithOwner.RowSource = "SELECT Temp.Owner FROM Temp"End Sub

I have two tables that are formatted identically....
Table1 = MasterTable
Table2 = TempTable
I am taking a copy of one of the entry from the master table and Copying it to the temp table.I then open a form on the TempTable that enables the user to modify the content without affecting the information in the MasterTable.On Completion and Save I wish to take this modified content and update the MasterTable Using the Field "ID"
the tables for example look like this
ID NAME AGE DATE1 DATE2
I am guessing I need to use a
Code:
DoCmd.RunSQL UPDATE "MasterTable" WHERE "TempTable"
Type of command but not to sure on the correct syntax and as everything is the same the use of wildcards for all fields
Hi,
I have built an Access DB containing 3 tables: dimensions, time, companies. The tables are not linked and are to be used to look up values for the new form. The goal is to create an Access form that would allow the user to select distinct values from all 3 tables, enter some own data and then execute an append query to add the record to the main table.
Something like this:
Initially I have 3 tables:
Prepopulated Dimensions table with fields:
dimension
....
Prepopulated Time table with fields:
Date
Day
Month
Year
Prepopulated Companies table with fields:
Company
....
My form is to be able to select distinct values (combobox) from all three fields:
Company
Dimension
Day
Month
Year
Value (data entered by user)
The record then is appended to the Main table containing:
Company
Dimension
Day
Month
Year
Value (data entered by user)
Thanks a lot for your time and help!

I have a table in MS Access 2010 with a Date field and 3 Memo fields. I wish to append data to the Access table from a MS Word doc that has a date field and 3 memo fields. My wish is to have a command button on the MS Word doc which appends the data to my Access Table.I am aware that a web page can append data to an Access table.

Hi all,
I have a form with around 10 checkboxes which serve as a filter option...now, when I hit my cmdFilter button it works well with a simple MsgBox !Ime showing all the filtered names...now, I want to put the results into a table tblTemp so that I could show the results in my subform. I've tried with making a sql string something like "INSERT INTO tblTemp..." but it's still empty.:confused:
Since this table will serve as a one time data, I will need to delete all records when I hit the Filter button next time...so, how do I send my recordset data into my table.
I hope this sounds understandable...
Thanks a lot,
Daniel
I have a form where the user selects check boxes to choose what fields to include in a report. Because of the massive amount of data, I need to send it to a temp table and then on to Excel and not use a query.
I have this line of code, for the insert into temptables for other forms that don't require the yes/no box and it works very well, but I can't figure out how to do it with these yes/no conditions.
This is the execute line that inserts into the TempTable for the other forms:
db.Execute "INSERT INTO TempPicktbl (Field1, Field2, Field3, Field4, Field5)" & strQuery, dbFailOnError
How would I write:
If Check1=True Then INSERT INTO TempPicktbl Field1
If Check 2=True Then INSERT INTO TempPicktbl Field2
If Check 3=True Then INSERT INTO TempPicktbl Field 3
etc.
I'm pretty sure it's the INSERT level where I need to put this code.

I receive the data from engineering team lets name it as MAster database( in DB2 database - Read only ) and then i want to assign the data to each member and staus will be updated by them.So my Idea is upload the data from Engineering team (MAster database) to my (Local database), i think of using Append query if there is any changes in engineeiring data after i append the data then i can use the Update query to modify the data.
But once i assign the job to every member from my Localdatabase, i want it to stored in a data base with their name because it is a huge volume data and it will go for years.The bottleneck is If i use the Append query here, the changes from Masterdatabase to Locadatabase will not reflect in Team members database? is any solution for this or i have to use the Update query in Localdatabase and also in Team memers database?
