Tables, Etc. Issue With Regions And Countries

Nov 2, 2007

Hello, this is my first post and should not be a difficult one as I am still a learning novice:

I am using Access 2007

My database includes a Table of "providers" located around the world. Each provider obviously has its respective address. To select the country, there is a lookup pointing to a "countries" table.

The problem is that I would also like to have a "regions" table, region being just a general well-known region such as Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. Therefore each provider may also have a region specified in addition to just City,State,Country like Cancun,Quintana Roo,Mexico. However, the many countries may have regions with the same names, therefore this table must also depend on countries. In other words, every regionID is made up of both a country lookup from the "countries" table and a region, like "Yucatan Peninsula".

I think this is the best way to do it so far, but now I am wondering how I would fill the region info in on the Providers" table. If i have a lookup for that regions field it would show each all of the regions, but like I said there may be regions with the same names in different countries. How could I fill this in without manually entering the RegionID from its own table. Eventually I obviously want a nice form to fill this in. One thing I was thinking of is if maybe after entering the country, the regions field could automatically narrow down to only those found in that already selected country. But then we would not want people filling in the region before the country.

I hope my problem is clear, just ask if not. Thanks very much, Dillon

Countries,state/province,region

Mar 3, 2007

Do you know of any knows list that contains cross-refs of all Countries,state/province,region so that I can build cascading combox for my site.

This is very strange. It is a concept we see all over the internet websites, but the least documented!!!!

Tables :: Linking Field Data Between Tables And Within Tables

Sep 26, 2012

Currently trying to build a database for customer management and order placement/tracking. Want to set a couple of rules so that if I for instance click yes of billing and shipping address the same that the database will automatically fill the shipping address with the data I inputted for the billing address in the same table.

The other issue I can see I'll run into is, I want to be able to select one of the company ID's (made up of a three letter abbreviation of the full company name) in the product ordering table and it will automatically fill in the rest of the customer data (phone, email, address etc) data into that form.

Tables :: Consolidating Multiple Tables In One Single Table (Sorted Ascending By Time)

May 30, 2014

What I have is a database setup with multiple tables in which different areas of my DC can input information simultaneously into their respective tables. I then have another database linked to it for myself to have a live view of each updated record. I would like to see all the records of each table in 1 single table (possibly just sorted ascending by time). Each table has the same Field headings but may have different qtys of records. As I will then have it linked to an Excel table to VLOOKUP from it.

I have tried Union coding but always get Syntax Error etc.

Tables :: Two Identical Database - Importing Tables By Linking To Data Source

Dec 3, 2012

I have 2 identical database in terms of structure but it differs in data.

Basically I would like to import data from subDatabase to mainDatabase and ensuring that there are no duplicate records.

I have used the "link to datasource method" through importing the tables to have the "updating" function.

However, this method also means that the records in mainDatabase are also imported over to subDatabase which I do not want.

Is there a method to ensure that the records are shared/update one way only? (i.e. import from subDatabase to mainDatabase and not main to sub?)

Tables :: Export Multiple Tables Into Single MS Excel 2010 Workbook

Feb 10, 2015

I'm using the MS Access 2010 ExportwithFormating action to export three tables to a single MS Excel 2010 workbook. The action overwrites the first excel worksheet each time instead of saving all three worksheets in a single excel workbook.

How can I export three tables into a single excel workbook.

Tables :: Developing Related Multi Level Child Parent Tables?

Jan 14, 2013

I have created a table that acts as a header for my data and a second table that acts as line item data. What I need to do now is add a second child table that uses the line item data as its parent table and stores associated line items for each record. Is this possible?

This is a skeleton view of what I'm going for:

Master Table:

tlbAuditReportHeader
- AuditDate
- AuditArea
- Auditor

Sub Table:

tblDiscrepancy
- Discrepancy
- CorrectiveAction
- ActualCompletionDate
- VerifiedDate
- Notes

Sub table to Sub Table

tblFollowUp
- FollowUpDate
- AssignedTo
- SpokeWith
- EstimatedCompletionDate
- Notes

Sometimes tasks change hands or are pushed back depending on work load. It would be nice to be able to track something like this.

Tables :: Calculated Fields As Data Type In Tables - Calculating Total?

Apr 23, 2013

I am using calculated field as a data type in access 2010.

They are working fine.

However, I added a new field and now the final calc won't work.

I have Subtotal adding loads of fields together. Works fine.

Then I have a VATunit field which is a double integer, so enter 20 and my next field is VATTotal calculates the SubTotal + the VATunit by doing (Subtotal/100)*VATunit. This calculation is fine and gives me the correct amount.

The next field is a Total field. Which adds Subtotal and the VATTotal together. Howver, the Total is the same as Subtotal. It is not adding the VATTotal to it?

Update Query Using 3 Tables: Source, Joining, Destination Tables

Apr 19, 2007

I have some experience doing 'Update Query' using two different tables but I'm having a hard time doing an 'Update Query' using 3 tables.

I have my source table TP05XY with the fields 'Mark' 'Date' 'UTM_Edig' and 'UTM_Ndig'. Mark and Date are my primary keys (they together uniquely ID each record). I have my Observations table with the fields 'Mark' 'Date' and 'Obs_ID'. The last table is Locations with 'Obs_ID' 'UTM_E' and 'UTM_N'.

I want to update my fields UTM_E and UTM_N from UTM_Edig and UTM_Ndig. However, to do so, I have to go from my TP05XY table, through Observations table to update Locations table. Table TP05XY is joined to Observations through 'Mark' and 'Date' and Observations table is linked to Locations through 'Obs_ID' field.

I have tried a few options without success ... anyone knows how to do it?

Thanks,

Josée

Tables :: 2 Similar Tables / One Takes Too Long To Append Data

Jul 19, 2014

I have being playing with ms access but I really don't know much about it or databases in general.I have created a very simple database to gather twitter following/followers data for research purposes.One table (table01) has a field for the "boss" user (=the user who I gather data for), another field for "client" (=bosses followers or friends).Both fields are numeric and contain the users id's.In order to distinguish if the link is follower or friend there is a third field, called type which can be either 1 (=follower) or 2 (=friend).So the data would look like this:

boss - client - type
12345, 67890, 1
12345, 54321, 2

If user with user id 12345 had a follower (type 1) with user id 67890 and a friend with user id 54321...In order to avoid getting duplicate rows I also added a unique identifier which is of the form boss_id-user_id-type.So the above row looks like this:

12345-67890-1, 12345, 67890, 1
12345-54321-2, 12345, 54321, 2

That works just fine.For several reasons I also needed data of the form source - target.So I also made another table (table02) of this form.

67890, 12345
12345, 54321
...

In table 2 you don't need the "type" field since the position of the user id shows the type of relationship.Still, you need a unique identifier in order to avoid duplicates, so I added on with the form: source_id-client_id..So table02 lookes like this

67890-12345, 67890, 12345
12345-54321, 12345, 54321
...

Both tables also have a date/time stamp for each line.As you can see, table01, having also a type field is bigger than table02.The problem is when I try to append data, exactly the same data in both tables.Appending data to table01 is ok, while appending data to table02 (which is smaller, having one less field) takes a really long time, maybe 10 times as long as appending data to table01.To make sure that no query's are causing the problem I have tried first creating temporary tables with the data to be appended, no duplicates, nothing that would cause the database to make extra calculations and used a simple update query with no filters to append data.Still I get the same result, table02 takes a very long time to finish while table01 finishes in no time.

Tables :: ODBC Imported Tables / How To Ensure Index Is Created

May 13, 2015

I am currently using Microsoft Access 2010 32bit, and have one database acting as parent, with a second linked database as a client for people to work with, and the parent database has tables imported from Sage V21 via ODBC. I have used the following code as specified in other examples as follows:

Code:
DoCmd.TransferDatabase acImport, "ODBC Database", "ODBC;DSN=MyDNSMachineName;UID=MyUID;PWD=MyPassword;LANGUAGE=us_english;" & "DATABASE=pubs", acTable, "INVOICE", "INVOICE"

one of the tables has 10k records in it, it only transfers 77 records. After manually attempting an import via the ODBC wizard it finally lets me access all 10k records.I wish to have a single button click delete and import fresh tables without worrying if all the data is coming across.Also, when manually adding a table, I am usually asked by the wizard to specify an index, but with the code above, I am not offered that option and the tables come across with no index. I am led to believe that having tables that link to each other without an index is bad, so how do I ensure an index is created?

Tables :: Calculated Fields From Two Tables / Based On Relationship In Third Table

May 29, 2014

I have two tables of data, each relating to three business branches (branches A, B and C).

Table 1 shows the expenditure of each branch (by fuel, premises and wages).

Table 2 shows a number of units for each branch (mileage, floorspace and sales).

What I would like to do is calculate unit costs, based on the expenditure in Table 1, divided by a relevant unit in Table 2. The catch is that I want to have a third table which allows the user to specify which expenditure (from Table 1) is combined with which unit (from Table 2) to generate the calculated unit costs. I've been able to do this in Excel, and have attached an example. I've also attached an incomplete Access version with the first two tables. Given the complexity of my actual data, I feel this could be better handled in Access than Excel.

Tables :: Joined Two Tables - Unable To Filter / Lookup On Second Table?

Feb 18, 2013

I have an Access Table with about 28,000 Automobile dealerships across the country shown. I've joined a new/small phone contact table to this to keep up with our phone contacts with the dealership and followup efforts. When I search/filter on the dealership table all is fine. However when I search/filter on the phone contact table with a few test entries, I get nothing at all. I supposed that after joining the tables, I'd be able to do a search on the field named follow up date and find/filter today's date or other dates and locate which dealerships to contact when the correct date arrives. But nothing.

Tables :: New People Added In Table1 Not Showing Up In Other Tables Despite Relationship

May 5, 2013

I have 3 tables.

Table 1: contains staff names and contact numbers
Table 2: contains training above staff have been on or need to go on
Table 3: contains pc and printer asset numbers of above staff

I used a form and entered some new members of staff in table 1. They got their auto numbers etc but when I open table 2 and table 3 those new members are not showing up in those tables. I have checked the relationship status between the 3 tables and the staffID from Table 1 is associated to table 2 and to table 3.

What's stopping the new entries from showing up in tables 2 and 3 ?

Tables :: Updating Fields In Multiple Tables Without Onclick Event

Oct 23, 2013

I am working on a database which has two tables used as part of a registration and login process.

I would like a couple of fields from table one to automatically update in table two, once the fields in table one are populated without using an 'on click' event.

The reason I would prefer not to use an onclick is because the completion of the form used to generate the users table does not require any buttons for the data to save.

Tables :: Data In Linked Back End Tables Not Saved From Front End

Jun 19, 2015

I have split database (B/E is in the SharePoint library, F/E has users on a local PCs). Sometimes, when I update/add data (does not matter if it is via form or directly in the table) it looks OK, but when I re-open the database, the data are gone.

Problem is that I cannot catch the moment when data were not saved (sometimes data are saved, sometimes not). I can point out this: if I re-enter the missing data, primary key continues subsequently, it looks like the data have never been entered. I tried to use script

Code:
If Me.Dirty Then Me.Dirty = False

on "On Close" form event, does not work.

B/E is linked by VBA code and it looks OK (no error, Link Manager shows correct path). I suspect interrupted connetion to the SharePoint but I don't know how to check it. I implemented VBA script co keep open connection to the SP but the issue persists.

Tables :: Linking Tables With No Common Data And Different Numbers Of Observations?

Apr 15, 2014

I am doing a project where we are collecting home owner data and information on all the dogs in the household. The data for homeowner has an autonumber primary key because no field is unique or has been consistently collected. I am struggling to link the data for the dogs to the owners because an autonumber primary key will not work since not all homes have dogs. I need to have this set up so that people who are not tech savvy can look up each homeowner (or dog) and get the dog (or home owner) information. And to make things even more fun we need up to 15 potential dogs per household each of whom will have 18 different pieces of data collected.

It looks a little like this (and you can see my not matching ID issue):

Homeowner table
ID First Name Last Name...........Total Dogs
1 Max Maximus 5
2 Min Minimus 0
3 Mus Musculus 1

Dogs 1-5 table
ID Date Dog 1 Name Dog 2 Name .......Dog 5 Name
1 (Max's) 4/11/14 Bobby Billy Betty
2 (Mus's) 4/11/14 Jojo

Min will have no dog records at all, just home information.how to link the dog's to the homeowners .

Tables :: Automatic Refresh Of Linked Tables - ODBC Connection

Jul 22, 2015

I have linked tables from SQL Server using ODBC connection that their location never changes. I have used certain fields of those tables to create queries and make table queries to derive to the information I needed.

On these tables on SQL Server, there is new data added daily. Every day, midnight, there's new data records added of whatever transactions took place in that working day. how often do I need to refresh linked tables in this case to get the latest data added. I mean, once I am linked, the make table query using those defined fields, would it get the latest data added by default when the query is executed, or I must refresh linked tables using Linked Table Manager and then run make table query.

Also, if I want the access to automatically refresh linked tables, can I use the following code? I have added this code, and executing it through a button, but I don't see anything happen, the database becomes inactive for couple seconds (I guess while it is updating) but I don't know is it updating the tables for sure or not, though I am not receiving any error when executing the code through the button.

Function RefreshLinkedTables()
Dim tdf As TableDef
For Each tdf In CurrentDb.TableDefs
If Len(tdf.Connect) > 0 Then
tdf.RefreshLink
End If
Next td
End Function

Tables :: Keep Primary Key Consistent As Data Saved In Other Tables Will Use Field

i have 4 supplier tables with identical field names but different databases in sql.I want to have them all in one table and only want the information for reference i do not want to edit any of the data.I need to create a new primary key number for the complete table. The data will need to be refreshed as the data comes from MMS Sage looking at company PLsuppliers.

I have tried a linked SQL union view- but this has no primary key.I need to keep the Primary key consistent as the data saved in other tables will use this field.The overall goal is creating a Purchase order system and this list will be my complete supplier list.

Moving Data From 2 Related Tables To 2 New Tables As An Archive

Apr 3, 2007

I have a form displaying the 11 fields of the parent/primary table using a selection from a combo box. I am using queries and vba code modules respective to form, combo box and command buttons. I have initial code that uses the two fields from the combo box selection to append same to a new parent/primary archive table. I now want to add to the append SQL the remaining fields to the parent/primary archive table. When I add the second sql string for the remaining fields to the same procedure and execute I keep getting 'null in primary key'. If I copy the primary record and paste same into the archive table it works.

Tables :: Assigning IDs To Excel Imports And Relating Tables

Mar 5, 2014

I need assigning IDs across tables so I can relate them. I have two tables.

The first table contains data regarding schools.
SchoolID [autonumber, primary key]
SchoolName
SchoolPostcode

The second table contains data regarding children numbers in each year group for each school
VaccinationSessionID [Primary Key]
SchoolID [want this to match the school id assigned in the first table!]
SchoolName
WeekofVisit
YearGroup
StartingDenominator
Etc.

In the second table the data was imported from Excel, so all but the School ID was imported. Each school name appears 7+ times in the second table.

How do I get the school ID assigned to a school name in the first table, to automatically assign and fill in the (currently blank) School ID field in the second table? I want to remove school name from the second table eventually, to use the Primary Key school ID in the first table, and Foreign Key school ID in the second table.
