Update Memo Value

Sep 19, 2006

Is there a way to populate the value of a memo field with the push of a button. What I am trying to do is have a few default items that can be automatically entered into a memo field. When I attempt to change the value of the memo field either thru the wizard, macro or by using a simple code like me.[memofield]="test" I get the error that you cannot assign a value to this object or by using setvalue through a macro i get the error "Object doesnt support this property or method"

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Forms :: Log History Of Inputs - Using ComboBox To Update Memo Field

Jun 25, 2013

I am currently using the column history to log the history of inputs into a memo field.

But i now need to swap how my database runs and now require a combo box to have the same history function, as this is for a status updates and i require users to only input certain status's.

I no that I cant use the columnhistory command with a combo box.

When selecting a status from the combo box it automatically update the memo field (which will be hidden on the form) so the column history function works.

Query A Memo Field

May 31, 2005

Greetings All -

Let me say first I am a novice Access user, just trying to teach myself a few things to make my job easier. So take it easy on me with any feedback.

This is my situation. I am using a web based help desk ticketing software that has an Access DB. I have created a couple of queries and linked them together that seem to be working and giving me the data that I want with one exception.

I am tring to query a memo field, which is the description of a ticket, and the output is only a small portion of what is actually entered in to the table. Is there a way either in my query or report builder to make a change that will output all of the data from the description field?

A couple of things that I've tried on my own are to change the data type for that field from memo to text, however that that puts limits on the amount of data that can be entered in and causes the help desk software to function incorrectly. I've also turned on Can Grow and Can Shrink for the text box for the output in my form.

Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
Jason

Memo Field Is Truncated By Query

Mar 14, 2007

I am using a 'memo' field in a table because the field size needs to be more than the maximum for a 'text' field (255 characters).

Although the text appears in full in the table, when I run a query to select certain records from that table the text in the memo field is truncated to 255 characters.

Anyone know how to correct this?

Problem With A Query (Memo Related)

Oct 7, 2005


OK, I have the following tables:

Code:TableA Date Date/Time Time Date/Time Param1 Memo Param2 Memo Param3 MemoTableB OrderNo Number LineNumber Number PONumber Text

(There are many more fields than these in each table, but these are the relevant ones.)

For the TableA entries I am concerned with, Param1 = WorkOrderNo and Param2 = LineNumber. PONumber = '1234567-89'. I am trying to reach the minimum Date value where these conditions are true.

Code:SELECT Min([Date]) as Result FROM TableA WHERE (CStr(Param1) in (SELECT CStr(OrderNo) FROM TableB WHERE PONumber = '1234567-89')) AND (CStr(Param2) in (SELECT CStr(LineNumber) FROM TableB WHERE PONumber = '1234567-89'))

Causes Access to start trying to process the query, but it doesn't finish in a reasonable amount of time (I usually end task it after several minutes). The query needs to run at least somewhat efficiently. Not CStr()ing Param1 and Param2 causes an error because OrderNo/LineNumber are not Memo fields themselves.

Any ideas as to another approach I could take to get at the data I want, or a way to clean this query up to improve it's runtime?

Slow Query On Table With Many Memo Records

Feb 7, 2006

Ok my database tracks escalations through my team, I have a main table that stores the unique ID's from the other tables I use in my Combo boxes, this part works really well, no problems.

My issue is with a tableI have claled "TBL_EscJournal", this table has the following fields:

JournalID (Unique Ref, generated by autonumber)
EscID (the escalation Id that this journal is relevant to)
Journalcreator (captures name of person who as entered the journal)
JournalNotes (memo field where you enter your update)
JournalDate (Date/Time the journal was entered)

So typically when viewing the main detailed form for a particular escalation I have a subform that shows all the journal entries relevant ot that escalation.

This table is huge, about 70% the total size of my database, partly because of the number of journal entries and partly because it is a memo field and a lot of data is required sometimes.

Up until now th edatabase has been located on a local server and has been fine for local users (2-3 of us) however there is a requirement for another office to use this database.

I am now experiencing massive performance issues, whereby the data is tkaig a long time to refresh on the other sites.

I have migrated the DB over to a SQL back end but still finding performance issues, which further testing has shown that the TBL_EscJournal is the cause.

So a coupel of things really, is there another way I can layout this table to improve performance or should I be uerying the data from this tabel in another way, would it be better for me to split TBL_EscJournal in two, the first part keeping the date/time and person who entered and the second part keeping the notes. Possibly increasing the query speed by carrying out the query on the first part of the table and not on the notes (memo) part ?

I hope this makes sense, if not feel free to PM me,

Appreciate any help or assitance you could offer

Not Getting Entire Data From Memo Field On Query

Aug 24, 2005

Hi all,

I had table with following data

Table

f1 f2 f3
1 10 aa......
1 11 aaa...
2 10 bb...
2 11 bb.......

f3 is memo field

I had to retrieve data by grouping records based on f1 value
so i gave groupby in totals section to f3 field also.

I am getting the values correctly, but memo field is truncating.
Its only displaying first half arround 236 charecters only.

If i query directly without performing any group by
then i am getting entire data for the memo field.

please any one give the solution.

waiting for your help.

Union Query Truncates Memo Field????

Jan 4, 2005

I created a Union Query for several linked Excel tables. Certain fields in the Excel table exceed 256 characters and Access (rightfully so) assigns these fields as "Memo". I have create a report based upon the Union Query; however, it will truncate the "Memo" fields to 255 (or 256 characters).

As a side note, if I create a report based upon a simple query using only one of the linked tables, it does not truncate the field.

Any suggestions on what maybe causing this truncation issue?

Queries :: Split Memo Field In A Query

Feb 26, 2015

I have a table that contains a memo that is delimited by line breaks. For each of these breaks i need a new record in the query results that i can then use in a Labelling application.

My current query looks something like:

ID | Product | Pack Size
1 | item a | 1x1000,1x1050
2 | item b | 1x1000,20x25
3 | item a | 1x1000

(Where the , is a new line)

Whereas my ideal output is:

ID | Product | PackSize
1 | Item a | 1x1000
1 | Item a | 1x1050
2 | Item b | 1x1000
2 | Item b | 20x25
etc.

I think im supposed to use the Split() Function though i dont have a clue wherw to start.

I never ran into this problem before.

Queries :: Memo Append Query Cutting At 255 Characters

Apr 11, 2013

memo fields chopping the content when appending to another table memo field.I have a query that takes in a couple of tables and then appends the content to one larger table.In each of the smaller tables there is a memo filed that when I check it has the entire type content in above 255 without a problem.

When the query runs and appends it to the larger table the content in the memo filed is chopped down.Both tables fields are set to memo I have double checked this.I have seen some comments about unique values in the query properties but these are set to NO as advised but it still does this.

General :: Concatenate Two Text Fields Into A Memo Field In Query?

Sep 5, 2014

I'm trying to concatenate two text fields into a memo field using an expression in a select query. My problem is that the text fields together end up more than 255 characters, so I need the resulting field to be a memo instead. I can't change the underlying text fields to memo fields because this is a large database used by others who need those fields to be text.

Update Query Won't Update In Access 97

Feb 10, 2008

I am trying to remove random characters from a field. The field [assycode] contains a string similar to say, FGEJBF1 or ABFGYRUKC I want to remove any occurrence of "F1" normally at the end of the string but not always at the end. I used: Like "*f1*" to find the correct records, that worked fine, I then used [Assycode]-" f1" in the update to box, It wants to update 146 records I click ok then it says It couldn't due to a type conversion error. Just messing around I tried adding "F1" to these records using [Assycode]+" f1" and it worked fine. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance

Update Query Will Not Update!

Aug 16, 2005

I have two tables, each has a "status" for a project. In the left table there is only one instance of each set, but in the right hand table, each set may be used more than once by different Projects.

I need the Status field of the left table to be set to "Assigned" if ANY of the sets assigned to projects in the right hand table are "Assinged"

Here is the update query I have setup but when it runs, it updates "0" rows.

8 is the id for the status "Assigned" in the SetStatus table
2 is the id for the status "Assigned" in the Status table.
