Queries :: QTREE - Link And Grab Information From 2 Tables
Mar 11, 2015I have 2 tables, and each table having different information and i want to link those 2 and grab information from both tables.
From below tables, i want to map the Qtree and then grab the rest of the information. for e.g. qtree1 suppose the same as qtree1/a
Table 1
Qtree | Mountpoints | Hostname
qtree1 | MP1 | Host1
qtree1 | MP2 | Host1
qtree2 | MP2 | Host2
Table2
Qtree | InstallDate | Owner
qtree1/a | 1-JAn | Vic
qtree2/a | 2-Jan | Gab
Now, How can i map the Qtree since i cant use = as the qtree are different name.
I tried to use LIKE but no luck as well.
btw, in actual... qtree looks like
//amsdc1-s-12345.europe.xxx.com/dhc-amsdc1-s-03015$
/dev/backuppool02
from above....
/dev or //amsdc1-s-12345.europe.xxx.com/ will appear in the other table to map the rest of information.
Link To Future Spreadsheet Tabs
Dec 14, 2007It's easy enough to link to someone else's Excel spreadsheet and get their data into my Access database but I have to do it each month. They create a new tab each month (OCT-2007,NOV-2007,DEC-2007) for the month and the spreadsheets always have the same structure.
Is there anyway to tell my database to go out and look to see if the new spreadsheet has been created and if it has then import the data?

Can Information In Access Update Records In Excel Spreadsheet
Mar 13, 2013We are developing a work evaluation for all of out employees on the shop floor.
While Access is way easier to update and allow for quicker ways to gather information, our requirements is that we must display a training matrix. While access has great reporting features, it is tough to get it a format with all users listed on top, tasks listed on the LH side and knowledge levels showing what level each user is at for each task.
I am limited by standard practice on how to display it so I was curious to know if information updated in Access can be updated on an Excel spreadsheet as well. I know in Excel you can format one spreadsheet to update another but I can't figure out away to have Access do the same thing.
Dynamic Link To Source Data
Nov 22, 2005Hello
I have a log which is updated by users in a spreadsheet. I have a front end which allows others members of the team to view the information being entered. What i want to know is if there is a way to link the spreadsheet to the database frontend which can automatically update the informationd daily.
I know you can do a SQL link but you have to pay for licences is there any way of doing this? We can not use a schudules job either??
How To Link Additional Data Source To A Form
Mar 22, 2006Hi All,
I have a db with three linked (related) tables. I have a form that has, at present, only one of these tables as a data source. Now I want to bring a couple of fields from another table into that form.
I know how to link a table to two data sources when first creating a table. But how do I do it when the table already exists?
I tried Table Design View | View Properties | Data source,
but that allows only one data source. If I link to another, the first disappears.
Thanks.
Adrian

View 9 Replies View RelatedTables :: Two Identical Database - Importing Tables By Linking To Data Source
Dec 3, 2012I 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?)
Update Query Using 3 Tables: Source, Joining, Destination Tables
Apr 19, 2007I 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

Now, in the amendment field, I've inserted a combo box, with 3 options in it. Let's say option A,B and C...The thing I want access to do, is, when option C is selected, I want fields Period, Salary and Shift to be automatically "Yes".But if option A or B is selected, the the user must choose what the other fields are going to be either Yes or No
Tables :: Converting A Spreadsheet To Access Database
Dec 18, 2012I have been tasked with converting a spreadsheet to an access database. I work for a growing firm of Tree-Surgeons (no pun intended), who service a sizeable chunk of the power grid in the UK. At any time, we have up to 150 operatives in the field, cutting vegetation around power lines. Because of the obvious danger, the power company need advance warning of where any teams will be cutting on any given day.
Various team leaders call in each day and give their intended locations for the following day to an individual who's responsibility it is to log the info onto a central spreadsheet, an Excel workbook. Each workbook contains a worksheet for each day (Mon-Fri). Each worksheet contains the following fields:
1. Number (Unique Numerical Sequence for the individual)
2. Name
3. Phone Number
4. Working/Not Working
5. Type of Line (132kv, Extra High Voltage (EHV), High Voltage (HV), Low Voltage (LV))
6. Area (in this case a lookup of 8 geographical areas)
7. SubStn Number (a name of exact location followed by nn/nnn) (LV Only)
8. Circuit and Pole Numbers (a location followed by nn) (HV Only)
9. Locality (nearest village/town)
10. Grid Reference (nn/nnn/nnn)
11. Time On-Site
12. Time Off-Site
So far I have created a table (Called Contact) for the individuals:
ContactID (Key)
ContactTeamNumber
ContactFirstName
ContactSurname
ContactMobileNumber
ContactTitle
ContactStatus
[code]....
Team Members can move between teams, but Team Leaders remain largely static.I guess I should create a separate table for Team Leaders and Team Members, with a one-to-many relationship between them? All of the others could be around the network but would not be attached to a Team Leader, so I guess they can be in the same table as Team Leaders for the purposes of tracking their location.
Also, what is the alternative to using a look-up for some of the fields, for example the Area field? I was concerned about breaking one of the commandments, and cant see a reason why, but I await enlightenment!
Tables :: Importing Spreadsheet - How To Convert Data To PK / FK
Mar 14, 2013I have a spreadsheet of generators with associated data: Make, Model, etc.
When I build the tables for the Make, each make will have it's own PK. Is there a good way to update the spreadsheet, replacing the Make for the PK other than using the find and replace function in excel (or update query in Access).
Example:
tblGeneratorMake
GeneratorID (PK)
GeneratorMake
John Deere has PK of 1
Kohler has PK of 2
If my spreadsheet has a list of Kohler generators, I need to change "Kohler" to "2".
Tables :: Linking Excel Spreadsheet To Table?
Jan 7, 2015I am creating a database for the company I work for. My boss wants it to have every information possible stored and accessible through the one database. Right now the time sheet that we use is a hard copy that the guys fill out and turn in each week. Before the database started I created an excel sheet for them to start using. My boss wants me to link the excel sheet to a table in access. The way it would work is each of the guys would fill theirs out and email them to me by Friday. I would then link it to the table so that we could easily pull information we needed through a query.
I read online on the office support website that you can link a spreadsheet but then access does not store the data and the data if needed to be changed had to be done through the excel spreadsheet. Doing it like that made it sound to me that each time sheet that was turned in each would would create a new table. I was hoping there was a way to have one table with all the times on it using an employee number as the relationship key. The biggest thing though is that the guys have to use excel to fill out the time sheet because getting each guy access is "not an option" .

May 30, 2006First off, its been a long time since I have been here (since sometime in 2003 LOL), partly because I didn't have to create a new db in a while. Now, I have been handed a project and come across something new.
OK, here is what I want to do. I would like to be able to dump data from an Excel file into existing Access tables (two to be more specific). Now, I also have relating tables that add data into certain fields. I tried using a query to try to group data ad hopeful able to dump data through the query. I noticed that I couldn't import data through a query. Just for kicks, I tried to pull data through table and noticed that I can only create a new table, not able to update and existing table.
How would I go about performing this task? I have never attempted anything in the past.
Thank you in advance for your considered help,

Aug 15, 2014I'm exporting data from a database (using a query) to create an excel spreadsheet. I then import said spreadsheet into a new database. I was hitting lots of problems (subscript out of range, violating this that and the other etc etc) which I cleared up and actually imported the data. Well today I cleared down the new database and imported the spreadsheet again and got this.
the contents of fields in 0 records were deleted and 0 records were lost due to key violations.Thereby followed what to do when you get these things happening.Now to me 0 records deleted and 0 records lost means it's all worked. WRONG!! No records were imported at all.
Tables :: Spreadsheet Weekly Upload - Setting Up Unique ID On Import
May 13, 2014I have a user that uploads a spreadsheet weekly. I want to assign a unique id to each record that is the current date plus the start and end date for the data they are loading which would be the week prior plus a counter.
For example: Data from the week of 5/4-5/10 is loaded on 5/12.
Record one would be 050414-051014-1
Record two would be 050414-051014-2
Record three would be 050414-051014-3
and so on. How do I accomplish this in my table design? They will be deleting the prior week data and pasting the new data so the table design will not change.
