Trying To Delete A Record With Code
Dec 11, 2005
Why does this code not delete the current record?
DoCmd.RunSQL "DELETE * FROM [Tble-Readings]WHERE
[Tble-Readings].[ID]= " & Me![ID] & ";"
I have this code on the a Close Button and if the record is incomplete I want it to be deleted from the table. The ID field is an autonumber so it is the 1st field to get a value if a user starts entering data. I get a msg box saying 0 fileds will be deleted why? the id's do match but it does not delete??

I need to give users the option to cancel a record they're creating. Whilst the delete code works fine, the following events in red no longer fire.
Private Sub cmdCancel_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdCancel_Click
If MsgBox("Once YES is selected this cancel cannot be undone", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Are you sure you wish to cancel this entire record?") = vbYes Then
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acEditMenu, 8, , acMenuVer70
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acEditMenu, 6, , acMenuVer70
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmNewRec"
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmSelectNew"
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmSwitchboard"
End If
Exit_cmdCancel_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_cmdCancel_Click:
MsgBox "Record deleted"
Resume Exit_cmdCancel_Click
End Sub

Hi,
I'm trying to delete a table once I've used it and always get the same error saying that the table is already in use, these are the commands I've tried:
DB.TableDefs.Delete ("Report")
AND
strSQL = "DROP TABLE Report"
DB.Execute (strSQL)
Can't figure out how to avoid this. Please help
Mike

I have a table that has 1335 records in, and columns names, Title, First Name, Surname, Address, Address2, Town/City, County, Postcode.I want to know how to write a SQL code, which will locate all the duplicates that match the First Name, Surname and Postcode and delete them, but keeping 1 copy of the duplicate.I have created a query to locate the duplicate records, and I have put the SQL code there. I tried changing this, however it would delete all the records, so I am not to sure what to try...
SELECT SurnameSearch.Title, SurnameSearch.[First Name], SurnameSearch.Surname, SurnameSearch.Address, SurnameSearch.Address2, SurnameSearch.[Town/City], SurnameSearch.County, SurnameSearch.Postcode
FROM SurnameSearch
WHERE (((SurnameSearch.[First Name]) In (SELECT [First Name] FROM [SurnameSearch] As Tmp GROUP BY [First Name],[Surname],[Postcode] HAVING Count(*)>1 And [Surname] = [SurnameSearch].[Surname] And [Postcode] = [SurnameSearch].[Postcode])))
ORDER BY SurnameSearch.[First Name], SurnameSearch.Surname, SurnameSearch.Postcode;

I am close to finishing a new database. In this database I have some VBA code that does a bunch of stuff, one of those things is to check if a temp table exists, and if yes then it will delete it.
Once finished this database will be made available to a range of people via Access Runtime 2010. I'm just wondering will the VBA code that deletes a table work in a Runtime environment?
I guess I should also ask if a save import process will also run via Runtime.just need to make sure that the users that need to do this code have full access if its required.

I have two simple tables. I want to delete the records from Table1 that are on Table2. I've created a select query that gives me what I want but when I change to a delete query, I get this message: "Unable to delete from specified tables"
I think my problem has something to do with security but I can't figure out what to change.

Some times, the system become stuck, which forces the user to end the program using Windows Alt+Ctrl+Delete. I have MS Access code which I want to execute when the user made the 'End Program' event using the Alt+Ctrl+Delete.
Thanks,

I have a table called "EquipmentRequired" which is populated by 4 append queries,
5000BaseReq, 6000BaseReq, 6000IFBBReq, EquipmentReq which get some of their information by counting fields in another table but all have the same field names.
The queries contain all data that is initially used to append new records to the table and this works fine.Unless some information changes or a record is added then I would like to add a button to a form and call it "update equipment" behind which would run a vba code firstly to delete all the records in "EquipmentRequired" table then run the 4 queries without the warnings and re-populate the table.

When we browse through records in a subform we store the records in the database.When we want to delete a records for example the third record from the five records always the first records will be deleted. How can we delete the records where the cursor is at? When we are at the third record and press the delete button the third record from the list in the subform should be deleted.
Code:
Option Compare Database
Dim FocusBln As Boolean
Private Sub Identificeer()
Me.[Datum Aangemaakt].Visible = True
Me.[Datum Aangemaakt].SetFocus
If Me.[Datum Aangemaakt].Text = "" Then
[code]...

I have a library database that I want to delete a record in my tblStatus when the book is returned. I have found the deleteobject function but it appears that that will delete like a table or query or report or something like that. I have no need to keep track of how many times a certain book has been checked out or that John Doe has checked out books X, Y and Z. As a mater of fact that is exactly what I don't want so I just want to delete the record that says Book ZZZ was checked out by John Doe. When the book is returned I just want it available for some one else.
Thanks in advance,
Rick

Hi all, facing a little problem with my forms. Access gives me headaches everyday. Haha.
In a continuous form, I have a delete button with the following code
Private Sub cmdDelete_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdDelete_Click
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
If MsgBox("Confirm deletion of the record?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton2, "Delete?") = vbYes Then
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSelectRecord
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord
End If
Exit_cmdDelete_Click:
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
Exit Sub
Err_cmdDelete_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdDelete_Click
End Sub
However, after the record is deleted, the focus is immediately set to the next field which creates a new record of null data. And since the fields are all required, I am forced to enter data into the new record, if not a pop up will inform to user to enter data.
I do not wish for this new record to be created everytime I delete a row. How do I go about it?
I'm learning more each day! Thanks in advance..

I have a problem with 1 of my form (FrmEditDrawing) that I use to edit a specific record from 1 of my table (TblDrawing). The user will see the Data for each drawing on a form that I called (FrmViewDrawing) and will be able to edit the data for each drawing by clicking a button that will open the form "FrmEditDrawing" on the specific record. In that case I can't edit and change the data for any fields but if I open the form on its own, I can edit and change the data ?
I guess it has something to do with the fact that I open twice the same recordsets which locks the table, I am not sure. What would be the different option to solve this problem?

When you want to delete a record out of MS Access, you get the default pop-up message confirming you want to delete the record [YES] [NO].
I have a few users who are not paying attention and hitting a combination of keys (I am guessing Alt + D) and getting this message. They then do not look, and confirm the deletion of the record.
I am thinking of two ways around this.
1) Change the default to [NO] when this pop-up dialog opens up (the default is [YES]).
2) Disable this pop-up box, and then create my own to confirm the deletion.
Are either of these possible, or has anyone ever had to work around this issue? I have never had an issue with this, and was not sure how to attack it.
Let me know.
Thank you,
T.J.

i have an order form somewhat like the northwind database one. I called mine A5_frmOrders. i have a subform called A6_sfrmOrders, which is in datasheet view. I need to add a "Delete Record" button into the subform, but when i put it in the subform footer, it doesnt appear.
Like any orders subform, i have "Item", "Product", "Quantity", "Unit Price" and "Subtotal" with their corresponding labels in the Detail Section. I tried changnig the subform to "Continuous Form" and doing this :
header : Labels for "Item", "Product", "Quantity", "Unit Price" and "Subtotal"
detail : "Item", "Product", "Quantity", "Unit Price" and "Subtotal" for user to fill in
footer : Delete Record button
but even when i change to Continuous Form, it doesnt allow me to separate "Item" from its label and put one in the header and one in the detail...
how do i add in the delete record button? Is it true i cannot use datasheet view if i want a delete button?
Thanks

Hi,
Is it possible to delete a record from a table whilst viewing that table through a form. The awkward part though is because I have another table linked to it.
Basically the main table is Orders and the other table is Items (these items make up an order). So when I go to simply click on delete an error message appears saying that I cannot delete the record but there are records attached to it in another table. This is fair enough but is there a smooth way off deleting off the items?
Many thanks,
Paul.

i have a table1 in my msaccess and i linked another table in mysql to ms access, (table2).
when table1 matches the record in table2, it will delete the record in table1.
my query is
delete *
FROM Table1
where table1.artid = table2.artid;
but it always ask me the value of tbl2.artid, the value of tbl2.artid is in the database of mysql and it has already records...
how can i compare the records of table1 (msaccess) and table2 (mysql) and delete the duplicate records?
:D
thanks in advance

Very new to Access and not a VB programmer. :confused:
With that in mind, I have created form for users to record address changes of members. I want to have a button that will "undo" what a user entered if they change their mind/decide an address change not necessary. My address change table has an auto-number field (ID) that is the index and I believe Access automatically creates a record regardless so how do we get rid of it?
I did a search and keep reading about a button wizard - Huh??? I don't know how to activate a button wizard (told you I was new). Also, I read about adding code but to where? and how? It also appeared the code examples might be using psuedo-names for tables or something ... how do I know a "real" name from a psuedo-name?
Can a "Delete" query be written? if so, what is the criteria to use?
I've looked at the properties of the button and all I can see is a place to add a macro or an expression. Am I in the wrong place for what I want to do?
Can anyone offer some help here?
Thanks!

I'm hoping someone can help a noob with a simple problem:) I did a search but couldn't find the answer.
When a user clears a record and leaves it Null I would like to prompt them whether they would like to delete the record before the access error message about invalid use of Null comes up. If they don't want to delete the record then the code should undo the change. The problem I have is I can't seem to run my code without the access error coming up. I can't see where I can trap the error (err.Number 3398).
For example, this doesn't work:
Private Sub txtSalesItem_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
On Error GoTo Err_txtSalesItem_BeforeUpdate
Dim response as Integer
If IsNull(Me.txtSalesItem) Then
response = MsgBox("Do you want to delete this category?", vbExclamation + vbYesNo, "Delete Sales Item?")
If response = 6 Then
Runcommand acCmdDelete
else
RunCommand acCmdUndo
endif
End If
.
.
.
I know I can put in a validation rule, but I would like to go a bit further.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

How can I delete a record from a form?
I set Allow Datasheet view to yes, Allow Form No, and Allow deletions Yes.
Nothing happens. Perhaps A delete button could be added, but I don't know the code? I do not want to use the Datasheet view as the means of deletion.
