I have two tables. One table is linked to a text file that is always update by the another program. I have another table the is same exact one but it does not get updated.
I have access run these two tables to see the difference between. (Its basically and add/drop function) But after I run those two tables to see the difference, I want to update the nonlink file, so it is up to date with the "link" table. Thank you.
I have a form that has combo boxes and text fields (as well as sub forms). There is also a button linked to some code that says'
Private Sub cmdQuote_Click()
'Creates quote date and prints quote
Me.QuoteDate = Now()
Me.cbAgentID.Requery
DoCmd.OpenReport "Quote", acViewPreview, , "BookingID = " & Me.BookingID
End Sub
When the button is pressed the QuoteDate field (it is bound) should be be populated, but unfortunately it is not. I have played with refresh and requery but cannot derive a solution.
Here's a query that the bottom listview in the attached form i.e. a listview representing a table of calls(many) to fims (1 top listview)
Code:
SELECT calls.id, calls.firm_id, calls.called, calls.said, calls.spoke_to, calls.next
FROM calls
WHERE (((calls.firm_id)=[firms].[id]))
ORDER BY calls.called DESC , calls.next DESC;
When I run the thing...I get a dialog asking me for firm id.
I want to change this so when I move up and down the firms LV (top)... the bottom LV updates taking firm id from the top LV with focus.

I'm using an UPDATE query to update records in one table (tblMain) from another table (tblTemp)
Here is my SQL :
Quote:
UPDATE [tblMain]
INNER JOIN [tblTemp] ON [tblMain].[MainField1] = [tblTemp].[TempField1]
SET [tblMain].[MainField2] = [tblTemp].[TempField2];
I only want to update the records in tblMain which have a corresponding record in tblTemp (linked by MainField1 / TempField1)
If any record doesn't appear in tblTemp, I want tblMain to retain the existing value for that record.
However, it appears that in such situations, the record in tblMain has it's MainField2 value set to null / ZLS.
I've tried using LEFT JOIN and RIGHT JOIN and also tried WHERE clauses but the result is the same every time.
I have a combo box (cboManifestNumber) that is based on the following table:
tblManifestData
ManifestDataIDPK (autonumber PK)
ManifestNumber
RemovedDate
ManifestComments
TsdfIDFK (FK frm tblTSDF)
This table is related to:
tblTSDF
TsdfIDPK (autonumber PK)
I need to be able to update tblManifestData with a new manifest number and manifest comments, along with assigning it a TSDF. how to be able to enter a new manifest number and the associated data without having it create two lines in tblManifestData. I thought that I could enter a new manifest number, then requery the table and form so it shows the complete list of manifest numbers (including the recently entered one) while staying on the newest entry.
I have an Access 2007 application that has a Parts Table that contains a list of automotive parts.I have attached a screen shot (parts.jpg) showing the structure.I have another table called Web_Parts that has exactly the same structure as Parts. The Web_Parts table gets its data from a CSV import that I do that is data extracted from an MySQL database used by an eCommerce website.
You will notice that there is a field called "Web_Product_Id" (number). This is the unique ID for each of the products that I have exported from the Web shop system. I need to regularly (probably every couple of weeks), export out of the web shop system and import into the Access environment.
Due to the fact that the data in the web shop system may change (pricing, description, add new items, delete new items etc), I need to find a way that I can simply update any existing records in the Parts table with any new information contained in the Web_Parts table......
I have two tables that are formatted identically....
Table1 = MasterTable
Table2 = TempTable
I am taking a copy of one of the entry from the master table and Copying it to the temp table.I then open a form on the TempTable that enables the user to modify the content without affecting the information in the MasterTable.On Completion and Save I wish to take this modified content and update the MasterTable Using the Field "ID"
the tables for example look like this
ID NAME AGE DATE1 DATE2
I am guessing I need to use a
Code:
DoCmd.RunSQL UPDATE "MasterTable" WHERE "TempTable"
Type of command but not to sure on the correct syntax and as everything is the same the use of wildcards for all fields
I am trying to update a table with the value of a text box on the form where the table to update is as selected from a combo box on the form.I keep getting the following
Error message:
Run-time error 2465
Microsoft Access cant find the field & table_to_update & referred to in your expression..
But really can't see what I've done wrong. Have checked that the table_to_update string does contain the name of the table so guess it must be sql..
Code:
Private Sub Command91_Click()
Dim table_to_update, sql_string As String
table_to_update = Me.Combo49
Debug.Print table_to_update

db.Execute sql_string

I have two tables, Table Products & Table Sold and I'm trying to aggregate the products table to reduce the total number of products and I want this update to happen with all tables that share a 1 to many relationship with the product table. (table sold is one of those).I have products apple, pear, bananna. I am now aggregating them to all just be called fruit. Problem is when I make this change in the product table I get this error:
"The changes you requested to the table were no successful because they would create duplicate values in the index, primary key, or relationship. Change the data in the field or fields that contain duplicate data, remove the index, or redefine the index to permit duplicate entries and try again."how to go about aggregating data in a table that has 1 to many relationships with many other tables.

I have used a make table query to create a table with text values. I need to convert these values to numerical data, for instance "Male" should become 1 and "Female" should become 0. I tried doing this in an update query, but had to use 2 separate queries. Don't know if a macro would work to update a table (there are no forms in this DB, it's all data fields). Same with code, I usually do this with forms. How can I update the raw data, which in some cases has multiple ifs, into the correct format? Thanks!

Here's my problem:
I have a table called WorkOrder. I have fields labeled:
JobID, which is an autonumber
WODate, which is formatted as =Date()
and WOID, long integer
Here's what I want to do and have done:
On my form I have WOID control source set to:
=Format([WODate],"mmddyy") & Format([JobID],"00")
I know that storing calculated values isn't the preferred method but it's what I've done.
The problem is I have a cmd button on the form, that when clicked asked for the WOID. This button is based on a query to print a specific work order.
The problems is that this calculated value (WOID) isn't appended to the table so nothing exists when the cmd button is click and the WOID is entered.
How can I update the table with this WOID for the specific job?
I have a table (A) with three variables: ProjectID, SubprofileID, and Budget. A projectID may have several subprofileIDs. I need to update this table monthly. Each month, I will get a table (B) with exact format. I want to update table A using data from Table B. I used UPDATE..... Left JOIN. But there is a probelm. For example, if project XX is not in Table B, the budget of project XX will be empty in Table A after updating whcih originally has data. Also, if Table B has a new Project YY, it is not added into Table A.
Could anyone help me with it?
Thank you very mcuh.
I want to update a column in table A with the value in table B where the value in A matches another column in B
This is what I have, which seems like it would be a valid query but Access is telling me its not an updateable query.
UPDATE PaymentBackup SET PaymentBackup.ClientID = (SELECT tblClient.ClientID FROM Payment,tblClient WHERE Payment.ClientID = tblClient.ClientIDx)
I want to add a lot of e-mail addresses to a membership database.
The database has 2 relevant tables
Home details
with fields Group ID: various Address fields: E-mail
Personal Details
with fields GroupID: FirstName: Surname: etc etc
These two are linked by the GroupID field
I have another table with fields FirstName: Surname: E-Mail
I would like to be able to design a query that checks in the Personal Details table for match with FirstName and Surname, and then updates the E-Mail field in the Home Details table.
Is this possible, and how should the query be designed?
Thanks

Newbie here.
I'm using MS Access 2007, and I have a lookup table that I use for a form dropdown. I decided I want to change the names to abbreviations. But I see this does not automatically refresh the coorisponding names in the rest of the database. It only changes the dropdown menu options in my form as I add new data. All the old data stays as full names rather than the new abbreviations.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
I have a form with a subform (main form is "frm_Maintenance_Request_2" and sub form is "subfrm_Job_Costs". The main form has a field called "GrandTotal" which is draws from a calculation on the sub form.) What I want to be able to do is that once the field has the calculation it updates a field called "Estimate_Cost" in the table "tbl_Maintnenance_Request". Can I do this without running an update query? I would prefer to use an Event Procedure that says something like afterUpdate:
tbl_Maintnenance_Request!Estimate_Cost = Forms!frm_Maintenance_Request_2!GrandTotal
Can you help please?
I have a current database application that is used by our sales team. The information used by the database is pulled from our SQL Server. The problem I am running into is most of our sales staff lack the access to the data source when in the field, but still requires the use of the program. I have thought of creating a standalone version of the program for all users to have on their laptops with a standalone table that is a copy of the information in the SQL server. Is their a way to detect if the data source is available and update the standalone table to reflect the new information? Basically I want my database app to check if the data source on the SQL server is available and update accordantly.
Thanks in advance
In my access database I have a "products" table which contains three concerning columns (pID, price, listprice) This table contains products from hundreds of different suppliers. Periodically, each supplier will send an updated price list containing the three pieces of information listed above.
My question is, is there any way to automate the following three processes:
1) if the product ID already exists. update to the new price
2) if the product ID doesn't exist add the new product and price
3) if a product has been discontinued, delete the record (this part not a necessity, but would be nice)
Thank you in advance for any help, if you have any other questions please ask

Hi,
I have a table with many records, and I would like to update for one of the fields, the same information as in the first record. Keep in mind that a group of records have the same attribute.
The same problem is easy to solve in EXCEL just by dragging down the info from the above cell - in this way you populate all the records with the same info as the first record, for a specific field.
How can I achieve this using ACCESS?
I want this:
FROM:
1 cost1 cost2
2 cost1
3 cost1
4 cost1
5 cost1
TO:
1 cost1 cost2
2 cost1 cost2
3 cost1 cost2
4 cost1 cost2
5 cost1 cost2
Thank you!
Dear all,
I have a simple database with few tables for which I created forms for the user to enter data.
I craeted in one ofthe forms a ombobox that reads from a table (list of suppliers fro example). I want the user to be able to select a supplier name and then this selected name will be fed to another table (order form for example). I did all requested work as I could understand biut the end results is that it writes only the corresoponding ID number (e.g. 3) of the supplier and the supplier name itself (text).
Am I doing something wrong or missing a code?
appreciate helping a newbie
regards
I have two databases, one containing the tables and one containing the forms and queries. The forms/query database is built from linked tables from the tables database. I would like to expand one of the fields from 7 characters to 9 characters. I planned on doing the in the table database, then updating the linked table. However, the table I need to alter has relationships with about 10 other tables and I get the (you cannot make changes to a related table error message). Is there a way I can make this change without deleting all the relationships?
For future reference, should the relationships have been created in the form/query database?
Thanks, N
