Hi,
I have a client who wants to work from home on two tables in the database. What would be the best way to update his changes to the live database at his work? He is planning on doing changes for a few days at a time before updating the two tables at work.
Thanks for any help.

Hi Guys,
I have got a query that updates details from one table2 to table1, "Reference" is the primary key and this is what the query uses to determine which need updating.
It all works great but if table2 contains a record in "Reference" that is not in table1 i just want it to ignore it, currently it just seeems to add them.
Any suggestion guys & gals?
Many thanks
Tim
I 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,

How to Update ODBC linked tables on ms access?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have to make a Costing System but for that I need to enter our Expense details in database according to Fiscal year and months.
I need a table for Fixed expenses and one for Variable Expenses and then I need one or more Forms to update data in those tables. Now I've created a table with Fixed Expenses. I have to update Year and Amount in that. Now it is only letting me one entry per Expense.
I want multiple entries for one Expense say 'Advertising' for different years. I'm thinking may be I need to make more than one Table, may be one for Expenses with ExpenseID and other for Years with Year and YearID and the third one for Amount with columns Amount, Method of Payment, Date and Notes. I did tried this but I think I'm not creating proper relation may be because its only updating for one year.
I'm using Access 2003.
I've been creating a new Access application and I've run into an issue. The form I created has 2 subforms on it. The data is stored on 3 different tables related by the RMAID. The data gathered from this form needs to go into our MRP application. I have linked the necessary MRP tables to my access application. How do I get the date from the form to the tables in our MRP application? The data needs to go to 3 tables from the MRP application. Do I create an append query that's run after the user completes entering the data on the form? Thanks for any help

Can someone tell me how I can get this done please?
I have been struggling with query syntax on this for about 2 days now not knowing how to get this done. Thanks for responding.
Does anyone know how to use an update query however, rather than update the field with a specific value, the field is updated from another tables value of the same field name?
This is the sql I attempted to use however, when I execute the statement i get a enter parameter value when it gets to the Where statement?
Any advise would be greatly appreciated, I'm lost!
Update PendingPolicies
Set PendingPolicies.PolicyStatus = PolicyTable.PolicyStatus
Where PendingPolicies.PolicyNumber=PolicyTable.PolicyNum ber----Iknow there appears to be a space here but there is not in my SQL?
I have two tables "Clients" and "F/S tracking". The one commone field between
the two is "Client Name". What I want to do is have one form that is used for data
entry, that will update both tables with the "Client Name".
Is that possible? and if so how? I have had no luck with it yet.
Thanks

I am in the process of developing a program for work. I am stuck on a form that I have developed to enter information on an injury report.
This is what I would like to do but stuck on how to get it completed. I have attached a stripped down version of my DB.
Injuries are entered in the "frmAccidentInvestigations." Once you have entered the employees information the form would automatically check to see if this employee is already in the "tblPersonnel." If the employee is already entered into the tblPersonnel you would continue with entering the information without any further prompts. This information is saved in the tblAccident.
If you are adding a new employee that is not in the "tblPersonnel" then a pop up window would open asking if you would like to add this record. If you hit "yes" it automatically saves the employee information into the "tblPersonnel" and the tblAccidents. This would allow you to check to see if you may have made a typo in the record. If you hit "No" then it continues with the Accident report.
The tblAccidents is filled with all of the injuries and you may have multiple records (Primary Key is the associate#). The tblPersonnel contains all of the information for employees and there are no duplicate records.
I have removed the information on the injury report to reduce the size of the attachment. The original DB has approximately 30 text boxes that you would have to enter information into.
Well this is one of my last bugs that I need to finish my DB and would appreciate any help you might provide.
Thanks in advance.
I want to update fields B and C in a table based upon another field (A) in the same table but I want:Field B to update when the original field A is changed in the table (I have managed to get this working in the form but I am trying to get the fields in the table to do the same as sometimes we batch update via the tables and this doesn't seem to work so we have to go into each record individually in form view to update the fields) Field C to only use part of the original field. where to start on this?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to update a record value in a table with a user supplied value.A user logs a test against a serial number (there are multiple tests per serial so the tests are numbered) and logs how many repetitions will be performed in that test. If a failure occurs and they have to abort the test, I want to change the number of repetitions from what was supposed to run, to what was actually run. So the user enters how many tests were actually run and the code is supposed to find the matching serial number and test number in my Test Runs table and replace the Run Scripts value with the user supplied update.
My code runs without error but the record doesn't update. I've changed my table value types from numbers to text without result, I'm thinking there might be a problem with quotation marks? So it's searching for serial "123-321" instead of 123-321?
My code is below:
serial = Forms("Enter Run Failure").Controls("Serial")
runNum = Forms("Enter Run Failure").Controls("Run Number")
abortNum = Forms("Enter Run Failure").Controls("txtAbort")

I need to update data in an Access database(ADO,VBA).
In the Access database, there are three tables as following:
Unit(ID,UName,TID,AID)
Type(TID,TName)
Area(AID,AName)
When a unit has changed its type or area, then the db needs to be updated. My question is how to do it. Can I get a recordset by joining three table, and do the update in one go?
I would like to create a text box where I can input todays date, then I want to be able to select the tables I want to update with that information.
So if I input todays date I can then update my Stock, Sales and Control tables with todays date. Tomorrow I would only like to update the Control and Tape tables with it as its the weekend.
I been playing around with 'new date for next record' scenario but the problem is that on the weekend we would not input any data into some of the tables.
Hope I've explained myself clear enough.
Thanks

I am developing an access db where employees are allowed to load tools from a tool store.
I have three tables: tblEmployee, tblTool, tblOnLoan.
tblTool includes a field "QtyOnHand" which is the quantity of a particular tool in store available to be loaned.
tblOnLoan is used to record which employee has what tools on loan.
When an employee loans a tool i need to be able to reduce the QtyOnHand of the tool and record the loan details in tblOnLoan.
When the employee returns the tool i need to increas the QtyOnHand of the tool and record the return against the original loan in tblOnLoan.
i have not yet been able to work out how to reduce or increase the QtyOnHand as tools are loaned or returned.
Can anyone please help?
I was just assigned this database task couple weeeks ago, I know VERY LITTLE. I have all my tables and forms set up. My company builds custom cars....very few per year. I have dozens of tables for all the different componetns of the car....and each table has the same column "Unit" in it. I have a form that when a new car is began being built, the the first thing it does is ask the user to type in the Unit for the new car, but that only puts it in the one table i referenced when creating this form. I want/need this Unit information to be placed in every single table (20+) that has the column "Unit" in it. How can i do this, any information is greatly helped.....im getting so frusturated, i feel like i've learned a lot in the past 2 weeks since starting but i stil really know hardly anything.
View 3 Replies View Relatedhi,
On the OnLoad event of a form, is it possible for the program to traverse or go through every single record (maybe with a while loop)?? If so, please send me the exact syntax.
Also, I want to update the tables on the back end. Is it possible to this in the be file? Where specifically would I have to put the code?
thanks
I have set up a table (A) that is linked to another table(B) in my database. This linked table (A) is then used in a number of queries. When the data in the original table (A) is updated it does update the data in the linked table (B) as it should. However, when I run the queries they do not bring up any records. It seems that they are not looking at an updated version of the linked table (A) because if I rebuild the query it finds the records as it should. Any advice on this would be very gratefully received.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to setup a database for vehicle stock control.
Im not sure if I have gone about this the right way as I am new to this but thus far it is working correctly except for one annoying problem.
The database consists of so far
tblIAWVehicleDetails (Primary key "IAWvehicleID" autonumber)
tblIAWSellers (Primary key autonumber)
tblIAWBuyers (Primary key autonumber)
tblIAWStates (Primary key autonumber)
tblIAWStatus (Primary key autonumber)
tblIAWSafetyDetails (Primary key autonumber)
tblIAWSold (Primary key autonumber)
In the Vehicle Details table a stock number has to be manually added as this will be used for new stock as well as current stock (Number range from 100 - whatever) "IAWVehicleNo".
This table contains all relevent data with reguards to make, model, bodytype, color etc.
The sellers table contains the details of the seller Name, address, Phone, LicenceNo etc.
The Buyers table contains employee names.
The States table contains all Australian states.
The Status table contains current vehicle status Retail, Wholesale, Wrecking etc.
The Sold table contains the details of the person who purchased the vehicle if sold.
The Safety details table contains a safety checklist for pre purchase inspections eg: Headlights yes/no checkbox, Headlight text field for any extra info.
It also has a field for a safety Certificate No once the vehicle is checked and recieves a Safety cert.
The forms are setup as
frmIAWVehicleDetails
frmIAWSellers Subform
frmIAWVehicleSafetyDetails
frmIAWVehicleSafetyDetails Subform
The Vehicle Details,Sellers,Sold & SafetyDetails tables all have the IAWVehicleID & IAWVehicleNo Fields but when the details are entered through the forms the IAWVehicleNo which is the manually entered number only updates to the tblIAWVehiclesDetails but the other IAWVehicleNo fields in the other tables remain blank.
Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi
I have such situation:

UPDATE r SET dubel=1 where EXISTS ( SELECT r.str, cit
FROM k, r
WHERE (([k].[str]=[r].[str]) AND ([k].[cit]=[r].[cit])));
when i'm using just select part, it gives me good results.....
Can Anyone help ME?

I had this working last night after reading a post on this site for help. Today it is not working and I confused. I imported some data from an excel spreadsheet into a new table called tbl_Supplier (field names OrderNo and Supplier). I have another table called tbl_Input with fields Supplier and OrderNo (along with other fields).
Basically I wanted to update all the blank Supplier names in tbl_Input with the Supplier names in the table tbl_Supplier using a match on the OrderNo.
UPDATE tbl_Supplier INNER JOIN tbl_Input ON tbl_Supplier.OrderNo = tbl_Input.OrderNo SET tbl_Input.Supplier = [tbl_Supplier].[Supplier];
There is data in the fields Supplier and OrderNo for the table tbl_Supplier but when I view the results they are all blank. I checked manually (search and find) and the ordernos do exist in both tables.
I thought I had it the wrong way round but if I do it the other way then it takes all the supplier names out of the tbl_supplier as the supplier name in tbl_input are all blank. Any help would be gretly appreciated, I have compacted and repaired the database just in case also.
