I am setting up a database using Access 2013, and am trying to test downloading files from Excel. For some reason it is not allowing me to have more then 4 columns in the excel file, it gives the error "Subscript out of range". I thought it was the type of variable at first, but when I tried deleting different columns on both files, the transfer always worked with 4 columns. How do I allow more columns to be transferred?Also, is there a way to not include the row numbers of the excel file as an ID column and only include the ID given in the first column?
I currently have a database which collects details of event effecting our business and am using a simple query that displays events within a defined date range.
I have also set an excel sheet which on the main worksheet appears as a calender format for a particular month which is updated by data in the access query. At the moment I tranfer the query to excel and it appears as a new sheet which I then have to link to the master calender.
Is there any way when exporting to excel to tell access to send the data to a particular sheet and cell range and even more advanced tell it were to put certain dates information? i.e send 1st March info to cells A1 to A4, 2nd to A5 to A8 etc.
Hope someone has some ideas on this one - even being able to send all data a specific cell range would be useful
This works fine as long as column names in Excel do not have periods. (.) Other then asking whoever is sending this not to put periods, is there painless way ignore that fact that excel has it, un just do it without it ?
I am trying to link an excel file (.xlsb) into Access 2013 running on Windows 8 (External Data-->Excel). It will first act like it's working, but it will just shut Access down after a couple seconds of churning and ask for a Backup to be created or it will restart (no rhyme or reason as to which you will get). I've tried a Compact and Repair. I've tried rebooting. I've tried renaming the excel file(although I have other files with the same naming convention linked), but no matter what I do, it will not accept it. I've tried doing just a straight Import....same results. This file, along with a others that are already linked in this database, are stored on a network server.
I have a database with a main database that has 2 related tables...my problem is that i only keep data that i really need, in the main table. My problem is that i sometimes need to go back to old data that i erased. so i have to keep old data too. but i can;t on the same database. so i need to move the old records from the main table and all the related data to another database that will keep all the erased data, so if i need to find something i will search on the "deleted records" database.
In Access 2007 and 2010 there was a "Collect Data" group under "External Data" where I could click "Create E-mail" that would build an email form for an outbound email in Outlook based on a table. I would then send the email out, then collect the data back into the table from Outlook when the recipient of the email responded with a filled out form. I don't see how to do that with Access 2013. I do see the "Email" button, but that's for something else. I see no 'Collect Data' in Access 2013 like the picture below shows from Access 2007.
I want to create a Web App in Access 2013 that contains a table of client names, addresses etc, and a second table that contains order details, including client name. It would be nice to ensure that as someone adds a new order they are give a drop down menu containing existing client names, and I can see how you can do this for a brand new table using the lookup data type. But I already have an Excel spread sheet containing client names. If I import this into my Access web app to create the client table, and import the existing orders to create the order table, I then try and change the data type of the client name (in the order table) from short text to lookup, it won't let me!! (If I create an empty client table from scratch, it lets me define the company name as a lookup data type - but I can't then import from Excel into this empty table)
I've recently moved up to Access 2013 (from Access 2010) and everything went well, until one day my splash screen was blank and the program had empty fields...after seeing that all the links to the BE were OK, I re-booted and everything worked fine....until the next day the same thing happened...... The program randomly falls over about once or twice a week and I have to re-boot to cure it.....
My splash screen has a standard dlookup ( [=DLookUp("Banner","tblCompanyInfo")] ) to display the active company name...and sometimes its populated and other times its not..... if its not populated then loads of other fields on the forms are also blank - even if they point to valid data in the database!!!!!!
Win7 (both 32 and 64bit) with Access 2013 32bit on three PC's - same problem on all!!!!

I have a simple line chart plotting price against date.
I would like to plot a secondary line on this chart from an array of data that I calculate. I've searched hi and low but can't seem to find a way of doing this.
The closest I've found is from this:-
[URL]
I can create my array of data but I can't seem to get it to work and think it may be for pivot charts....which access 2013 can't do anymore.
how to plot multiple data sets on the same graph in Access 2013.
I have a people table; Ethnicity Table; Program Type Table; Attendance Table.
I enter the people into the people table then enter people into the attendance table with lookup for name from the people table and a lookup for program type from program type table and enter date attended. I then run a query on the attendance table to remove duplicates. I created a form from the attendance query there are 3 headers Program, Ethnicity, Name. but the program type comes up as the ID number and not the text name.
The Ethnicity did the same thing but when I added the Ethnicity from the people table to the ethnicity header it show up as the name and I hide the box with the number but when I add the program type from the program type table to the program header is changes the source of the report to the program type table and then nothing shows up. It did not do that when I added the ethnicity type from the ethnicity table to the ethnicity header.
I am pretty new to access and trying to create a form to enter data into a table. I keep getting a syntax error. Below is the part of code where I keep getting the syntax.
I have 5 tables that I would like to input data in. It can only be done with a single form. The fields I want to input in have the same names in all 5 tables, for example:
Table 1: Name Age DOB
Table 2: Name Age DOB
Table 3: Name Age DOB
Table 4: Name Age DOB
Table 5: Name Age DOB
Is it possible to input data into all of these fields in each table using one textbox for each field?
Preferably without having to use code but if it cannot be done without it then that would be fine.
how i can export the data from Access to excel using Access VBA for the specified sheet using data linkage with access database. Like we used to do it manually in excel as external data from access.Like we have some codes for linking excel file to database mentioned below;
Can we have something like this to link database table in excel file automatically.So that the excel size won't be that big and also it saves processing time.
Hi, I'm running 2 append queries to my existing db to update fields in one table with data from 2 sources - basically plucking some fields from one and some from the other (using a client ID number as the common identifier - the data is fed into the parent table). However, it would appear that some of the data is not transferring into the parent table even though it is visible in the source file (.xls). I know that this seems like a broad request but I'm just wondering if there may be a potential simple error. Any ideas?

Hi all. Hopefully this will be a simple thing...What I have is one main table (RFA Main) and two related tables (S/R Disposition and Suppliers). RFA Main has a two check boxes (ScrapRewrk and SupActs) that I am using to trigger append queries that append the following SQL statement: Suppliers table INSERT INTO Suppliers ( LogNum, Originator, ReportDateOp, PartNum, PartNumDesc, ProbDesc, CustRtn, RmaNum ) SELECT [RFA Main].LogNum, [RFA Main].Originator, [RFA Main].ReportDateOp, [RFA Main].PartNum, [RFA Main].PartNumDesc, [RFA Main].ProbDesc, [RFA Main].CustRtn, [RFA Main].RmaNum FROM [RFA Main] WHERE ((([RFA Main].SupAct)=True));
S/R Disposition table SQL the same except for the WHERE statement reads ((([RFA Main}.ScrapRewrk)=True));
First, what kind of statement would I use to trigger the append query when the boxes are checked? Currently, the users are doing these append queries manually by clicking command buttons.
I have created a database that deals with inventory control. My next step that I have been approaching is to click a command button that opens up a separate from but takes specific information from FORM 1 into the new FORM that I just created.
So if a specific Employee takes out 4 aprons from a total of 50 and there are now 46 left, I would like the submit button to transfer that data over accordingly to Inventory control form in the correct text boxes.
Specific Example: If employee John Doe takes 4 aprons from a total of 50 which now leaves 46 how can I transfer that data into the other form showing specific information like 'Product ID' taken, 'Date' it was taken, 'Product Description', 'Employee' who took it, 'Amount Taken' and, 'total' left. I need the extended information to show up in the text boxes on form 2.
Is there a certain code that does this? Here are screen shots so you can get a visual....
I have one form that is serving as a popup while the parent form remains open... in my code for the popup I'm trying to transfer the value of a textbox to the actual textbox on the parent form... seems easy, but I get this message: "You can't reference a property or method for a control unless the control has the focus" with this code:
Private Sub btnExportData_Click() [Form]![Worksheet]![txtBookedNotBanked] = Me.txtTotal1.Text End Sub
... also is there a way to code this so the popup closes when the transfer is made?
I have a form (frmJob) that has a combobox (cmbCompany). If a new company is not in the table the NotInList code opens another form (frmCompany) and a new company is added into the textbox (txtCoName).
The code below is the code that closes the frmCompany after entering new company.
The first part of the code (Add new company into table) works and adds the new company into table but the second part (Add new company into frmJob) does not, and the new company does not appear in the cmbCompany combobox. Note: frmJob remains open while data is entered into frmCompany.
How can I get the second portion of the code to work?
Code: Public RemCompany As String Private Sub cmdCloseCompany_Click() "FIRST PORTION - Add new company into table Dim dbCom As Database Dim recCom As Recordset Set dbCom = CurrentDb
table 2 is bonus table id empno bonus amount iddate
table 3 is deduction tableid empno deduction amount iddate
Now i need is to transfer the data from bonus table and from deduction table to the table 1 if the empno and iddate are equal on the both tables
What I mean for ex if i create query and when i enter the employee number directly it will give me his bonus if he has and his deduction also if he has, so how can i do it?
I understand that any data that is inputted into a form is always transferred back to the table in question.
In the form I created, I had
4 subheading scores added together to form another subheading named function =([1]+[2]+[3]+[4])/4 was the formula that I put into the control source. The calculation worked fine on the form giving me the correct name. However, this number did not transfer back to the table simple being labelled as zero. Can someone please advice!
I have been trying unsuccessfully to transfer about 20 details describing the name, up to 14 different colours, prices etc and one image of beads from the details displayed on a form to a report. I have no problem displaying the details of one bead using a combo box but then I want to send these details to a report. After that I select another bead and then want to send these details to the report.
The report is divided into 12 rectangulars to represent 12 sections of a display box. This tells the shop owners which beads to put in which section as display is important for sales. as there wooden beads, glass beads, plastic beads animal beads, letter beads etc, etc.
I have gone into this details so you will understand what I am trying to do. I would be very grateful for help but I am sure will realise that I am technically inept and please when you try to explain things to me to remember you are dealing with an idiot.
