Hi,
I have a subform called "Earthwork". I also have a query called earthwork200 and I need to dynamically transfer data from the earthwork to the query based on a certain column.
for example, the earthwork column i am using to transfer data to the query is "Desc" (the name of the column). How do i get data to dynamically goto the query as I click on a new item under the "desc" column?
Kindly HELP!!
I am currently studying for my A levels and need some help with microsoft access. What I want to do is transfer information from one table in my database to another. When it transfers however, I want it to alter under a certain validation. This is what i want to do;
Admission numberArt
011649
011650 F
011651 B
011652 C
011653
This is an example of the information. The letters regard to a GCSE result. I want the grade to be transfered to a table called "point score". Each grade has a value, A* = 8 points, A = 7 points, B = 6 points and so on. When the data is transfered to the point score, I want it to just state the point score and not the grade. Can anyone help?
Cheers
Hello everyone,
I am still trying to solve the following problem:
I am trying to transfer data from one table to the other in a different folder using the follwing command:
Private Sub Commandtransfer_Click()
DoCmd.TransferDatabase acImport, "Microsoft Access", "D:DBSsewertvinsp.mdb", acTable, "tblSanTV", "tblSanTV"
End Sub
By using the above command I could be able to transfer "tblSanTV" table from D:DBSsewertvinsp.mdb to another table in a different folder but it transfer the table and data together. But that is not what I want to do. All I want to do is to transfer the new data from one table to existing data in another table. These tables have the same names but different field names.
I tried the following command to solve my problem, but I end up with more problems than solution:
PPrivate Sub Commandtransfer_Click()
DoCmd.TransferDatabase acImport, "Microsoft Access", "D:DBSsewertvinsp.mdb", acTable, "tblSanTV", True, "INSP#; MAINLINE ID#;US MH ID#", "tblSanTV", True, "INSPNO;MAINLINE; SAN_MH_FROM"
End Sub
In the above command, I was trying to import data from "D:DBSsewertvinsp.mdb", tblSanTV" table to the general database. But I want data in the field "INSPNO;MAINLINE; SAN_MH_FROM" in "tblSanTV" goes to the corresponding fields in general dabase "tblSanTV" table, fiel "INSP#, MAINLINE ID#,US MH ID#" consecutively.
I want somebody help me out with this issue. Please help me. Thanks.

Hello everyone,
I have still an issue with tranfsfering data from two tabels to another two tables which have parental relationship. A while a go on this forum someone have suggested to me to use the append query but that only works to append to one table, which is not my case.
If I don't transfer these two tables together or at the same time, they will loose their relationship because of their relationship which is auto number.
I have tried to modify the append query SQL and didn't work for me. Please someone help me solve this problem or tell me other alternative way of doing this. Somone look at the following modified append query and see where I made a mistake or cannot do it this way:
INSERT INTO tblSanTV ( INSPNO, MAINLINE, [US MH ID#], [DS MH ID#], [ADDRESS#], [STREET NAME], [CROSSING STREET], [FL TYPE], [P SIZE], [MT TYPE], [MH DEPTH], [P LENGTH], [SITE CONDITION], REVERSE, HEADING, [INSP DATE], [TAPE#], [TAPE START], [TAPE STOP], [INSPECTOR NAME], [PROJECT NAME], [PROJECT NUMBER], [REP TYPE], [REP PRIORITY])
INSERT INTO tblSanTVmk (DISTFROM, DISTTO, [COUNTER], [OBS TYPE], CATEGORY, DIRECTION, [SC PERMIT#], COMMENTS, [PHOTO CLIP] )
SELECT SANTV2.[INSP#], SANTV2.[MAINLINE ID#], SANTV2.[US MH ID#], SANTV2.[DS MH ID#], SANTV2.[ADDRESS#], SANTV2.[STREET NAME], SANTV2.[CROSS STREET], SANTV2.[FL TYPE], SANTV2.[P SIZE], SANTV2.[MT TYPE], SANTV2.[MH DEPTH], SANTV2.[P LENGTH], SANTV2.[SITE CONDITION], SANTV2.REVERSE, SANTV2.HEADING, SANTV2.[INSP DATE], SANTV2.[TAPE#], SANTV2.[TAPE START], SANTV2.[TAPE STOP], SANTV2.INSPECTOR, SANTV2.[PROJECT NAME], SANTV2.[PROJECT#], SANTV2.[REP TYPE], SANTV2.[REP PRIORITY], tblSanTVmk2.DISTFROM, tblSanTVmk2.DISTTO, tblSanTVmk2.COUNTER, tblSanTVmk2.[OBS TYPE], tblSanTVmk2.CATEGORY, tblSanTVmk2.DIRECTION, tblSanTVmk2.[SC PERMIT#], tblSanTVmk2.COMMENTS, tblSanTVmk2.[PHOTO CLIP]
FROM SANTV2 INNER JOIN tblSanTVmk2 ON SANTV2.[INSP#] = tblSanTVmk2.[INSP#]
WITH OWNERACCESS OPTION;
I tried to modify the append query to the above format but didn't work. I even tried "inner join" to put the above table together but I could be able to make it work. Anybody knows how to solve this, please help. Thanks.

i have 3 databases containing data in the same format.
basically i work in a school, and have a database for 3 different classes.
each database has a table containing the childrens details(table a), and a linked table (through primary key in table a) to targets and points scote for each week.
--table a--
child number
name
carer
address
etc
--table b--
index
child number (linked)(displayed as childs name in table, but stored as a number)
week starting
target 1
target 2
target 3
points 1
points 2
points 3
etc
now this database has been working really well. but if ever a child has to be moved class then i need to be called to transfer the records manually (because nobody else can do it) and i have to get the records manually and copy and paste them between databases. This works fine and i've had no problems. And the auto number in table a is changed from the original. but this seems to automatically corrolate to table b when i paste that over. so everything is working fine.
but....
first of all, it creates lots of work for me when kids move classes, and also if i'm not there nobody else can do it.
so....
i've tried using an append query to transfer the data. I tried using 2 append queries (1 for each table).
but....
it works fine for table a, but i'm having trouble with table b.
the append query for table b pastes all the records into the equivalent table on the other database through searching all records related to childs name on table a, therefore retuning all records in table b for that child.
the problem.......
when this data is transfered it transfers table a data fine. but table b is fine except for the fact that it doesn't transfer the childs name data (number), which i can kinda understand, but from what i can understand, my queries are doing the same thing as if i was to cut and paste manually and it works fine when i do that.
ok so its all very confusing, and i hope ive explained adequetly.
oh and btw, i can't put it all in 1 database, because each class may need to access the database at the same time.
thanks

I have a tbl called table1 which has 3 fields. i have a form called form1 which list field1 for all records in table1. when i double click on field1 i want to open form2, retrieve the data from table1 using field1 as input and display the results onto form2. can this be done just using Access or do i need visual basic? i am new at Access and have not ever used visual basic. i do know java. can you tell me how to do this or suggest a book which could explain it. the access book i have does not go into this type of detail.

Could someone please help me?
At work we have a website with a mysql database attached to it. It keeps data such as customer name address postcode contact id etc.
Currently our main database is made in access.
I need to transfer data from the website database (which is in mysql) to our access database. And would like this to happen regulary. We have been quoted £1800 for someone to do this!
As this is a new job i would like to be able to do this myself, is it hard to do?
Could someone provide me with some information of how to do this? or where to start.
Much appriciated.
I don't know if anyone can help me with this one at all.
I have a query that contains all the possible data that my users will wish to get data from but I want them to have the option to show/hide particular columns to make the query ad-hoc.
I have some code that copies my query to another of a unique name during the course of their Access session so they end up with a query with the name 'ABC' for example that they can run.
If this query ABC has columns A,B,C,D which are all defaulted to be shown and the user decides they are not interested in columns B and C is there Access code that is equivilent to this pseudo-code?
ABC.A.Show = True
ABC.B.Show = False
ABC.C.Show = False
ABC.D.Show = True
where ABC is a query, A..D are columns and Show is the checkbox in the query definition.
That I can run in VB 6.3?

I am using a subForm inside a parent. The subform is in the "dataview" format and it shows the data of a particular table (say 'Processus'). What I want to do is, when I insert a data from the parent form into the table processus, I want the child to display the the new record dynamically...
Is this possible? Is there a property like child.refresh ??
Hey all,
I've tried to find this on my own, but without luck. I have a Microsoft Access form that I've build. The data is pulled from tables I built. There is a "User" dropdown, an "Email" field and a "Phone Ext." field. I'd like to set it up so that when the "User" dropdown triggers an On Change event, the "Email" field and the "Phone Ext." field automatically update with the appropriate data (all from the same table). Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks,

I want a help on this complicated issue:
On running a select query with "a*" of names in a table:
Results are : America, Argentina
Now I want this to dynamically create 2 text fileds in a form and fill America &".snp" in first and Argentina &".snp" in 2nd filed.
It is not regarding subform to display data of query result.
This I am going to use to add attchment for outlook email session as being discussed in my Email from access with attachment thread.
"Dynamically search multiple fields" using my own customer data.
I'd like to add in additional searches as what he has will let you do one search but I'd like to, in his example, search on vintage and state, or the like. I assume Id need two multi-searches for this.
Right now the data is in excel so I have a completely blank page to fill.
I have an access table and I want the code that will check two columns in the table "EnvelopeType" and "EnvelopeSize" and create headers in Excelsheet automatically. In the attached workbook, like in sheet1 the headers are already appeared, I want this to be done dynamically using vba code so that if new values get inserted in EnvelopeType and EnvelopeSize then we won't have to change the code to display more headers.
Please see attached workbook named Sample and Access table. E.g.
EnvelopeType EnvelopeSize
TNT 2nd Class C5
PP1 2nd Class C5
PPI 1st Class A4
Recorded A4
TNT 2nd Class C5
PP1 2nd Class C5
Recorded A4
PPI 1st Class A4
Recorded C5
With the code it should display following headers in excel sheet:
TNT 2nd Class C5
PP1 2nd Class C5
PPI 1st Class A4
Recorded A4
Recorded C5
Hey All,
This may have been covered already, and if it was I appologize. Searched for it but couldnt find it.
Any how, I have a large table of records (problem is its growing). It lists customers and dates. My table has way to many records, so i need to condense it a little bit. What i need to do is transfer contracts that have been fulfilled (by date) transfer to another table that contains records of contracts that have been fulfilled. I want to do this by a push of a button, automatically transferring any records that the date has passed to the pastcontract table.
Any ideas? Im not quite sure how to proceed.

I have three list boxes. Two of them has data from a database in them. I want to chose one piece of data from one index, and choose two pieces of data from the other list, and click a button to send it to another list(database, that would later be exported to excel). Does anyone know how I would go about doing this?

(when the customer returns their car)
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've built a table and used it to build a form. One the form I have three boxes, one to enter the DoB, and two others that record the age and also put the individual into an age bracket.
In the latter two categories I have entered a formula in the Properties Box under Data & Control Source (the formulas are below) to automatically work out what the age and age bracket is when the DoB is entered. This works fine but the information isn't transferred back to the table.
Do I need to do the info in the table first and then update the form? And if so where do I enter the info in the field properties in the table design view?
=Int((Date()-[DOB])/365.25)
=IIf([age]>=50,"50+",IIf([age]>=35,"35-49",IIf([age]>=25,"25-34","16-24")))
Many thanks in advance

Any Ideas Im a bit confussed.

Hi there, this is probably a very simple problem for people with experience of Access, however i have been having problems with being able to tranfer information from a query to a table.
I have made a query which displays a number of different items with their prices and who bought them (ie. booking ID)
I have then made a query which asks for the booking ID, then once you have input that it searches the items and adds up the price for all the items which that booking ID has.
both these queries work fine. The problem i am having is that i want to transfer this total price into a table. I have been able to do this by manually typing into the sql code the price, however when i try to get the query to collect the price itselfs, it gives the error
"operation must use an updateable query"
btw i am making the query as a update query,
sorry if this post is a tad long and messy,
thx in advance for any help

I need to run a select query, (for a mailout) then mark the records that have been selected in the query on the main database table with a mailshot code.
Any ideas on how best to achieve this?
I was thinking of making the select query maketable (because I have to export a txt file of email addresses for a mailing list), then add a mailshot code field, then append this extra field to the main table.
The trouble is that I am not sure how to use the query to add this extra field to the maketable & once this has been done, how do I append the values to the original table when the mailshot code field does not exist, can it be dynamically created?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Hi All,
I have built queries based on tables. The field names are the technical field names of an application. For example pernr is actually Personnel Number etc.
My queries are set up as follows:
Field = pernr
Table = etc
I would like to rename pernr to Personnel Number so that the column heading in the datasheet view is Personnel Number.
I know I can do this manually for each query by using the following as the field: Personnel Number: pernr
Is there any way of getting this be done dynamically using a lookup table etc. I have lots of queries and I don't want to manually change them all. Furthermore, if I wanted to rename Personnel Number to Personnel No. then I could do it in the mapping table rather than in all the queries.
Thanks,
Evan
Hi Guys
my database is essentially a questionnaire of around 200 questions. I'm trying to add a 'light' version to it.
I've added a 'include in light verion' tick-box to all the questions and a 'light analysis' tick box on the registration page.
The questions are all genertated via queries pulling out the appropriate ones as required. What I'm tying to do is add to these queries so that if the 'perfomr light analysis' tick box is ticked only those questions that have been indicated as light are included, and if it's not all teh questions are included.
I can do either-or but not both dynamically
Can anybody help?
Thanks
