I have a table of values in a table called UpdateTable. Before i do the update though i want to copy the entire record for archive purposes. I would like to know how to create an append query that uses another query as the criteria. ie;
UpdateTable - holds current values to be used to update MainTable
MainTable - holds all the data
ArchiveTable- a copy of the entire record that was updated even if only one value was updated
I would like to know how to use a query as the criteria for an update query so I can get a list of all CarIDNumbers in the UpdateTable and use that as the criteria for which records in the MainTable I want to append a copy to in the ArchiveTable.
Basically I need all the CarIDNumbers in the UpdateTable because each time I want to append a copy of all of the records and after each process I will delete all the records in the UpdateTable.
Hi, In the example attached below how can I see the "cut off date" that I am prompt to enter in the fourth field of query1-a (I would like to see it for each one of the record that are displayed when the query is run and then append it to a table) Cheers,
I have an append query which runs from a command button. It transfers all the fields I want it to but when I run the query when in one particular record it not only appends the field for the current record but appends the fields for every other record in my table. I know I should be running the query using stLinkCriteria but I'm not sure on the syntax for the code, see below:
I would like to run an append query but only after I have checked a table for existing data. I want to see if a ralicarID exists in a table and if it doesnt the query should run. if the railcarid does exist but also has a check in and check out date then the query can also run.
I was thinking something like this
Dim RailcarInDatabase as number ' run query here that checks for the railcar id and returns a value if railcarID in table then RailcarInDatabase =1 else RailcarInDatabase =0
And if If RailcarID in table and DateInShop is not null and DateOutShop is not null then RailcarInShop = 0
Something like that which will allow me to run the query only if the car is not in the database or it is currently not in the shop.
I have an append query that contains a parameter [PTIdent] under the field named PTID. I would like to be able to set the parameter through VBA from a control on a form eg Form!PTID
I use the following code as normal Private Sub Command19_Click() On Error GoTo Err_Command19_Click
Is there a way within this code to do this? I realise I could set the form criteria within the query itself. However I wanted to be able to use this query from multiple forms.
hi Guys, I have been looking at different post and checking Microsoft help files as well, but still can't seem to fix this problem.
I am having 2 tables. The first table is connected to a form for viewing and entering data, and in the second table i am just copying 3-4 fields from the first table.
I am trying to use the insert statement to insert records in the second table, and everytime i click on the "Add" button to add the records i get the following error "MS access can't append all the records in the append query ... blah blah blah"
However if i close the form and reopen it, and goto the record (as it is saved in the first database) and now click on the add button to add the fields to the second table/database, it works.
In some cases I create pass-through queries and use these in an Append or Make-table query to bring data locally.
All is well and fine until source data changes and the pass-through query runs too long and times out.
If needed, I can extend the timeout value in the Parameters of the pass-through query no problem, but when I try to open the Append or Make-table query in Design view to do the same, the pass-through query is first triggered and then throws the timeout, and I cannot access the Design view of the Append or Make-table
Is there a way to open an Append or Make-table query in Design view without invoking the source query?
I want to 'append' individual records from 2 tables and place in an archive table or within another database, whichever is the best option. I then want to be able to 'delete' the relevant records from one table.
The tables are tproperty and trents. This property paid rents but has since been sold. Therefore it no longer belongs in the database, however client wishes to keep details of the property/person/and rents paid in past, for any future ref. These tables are linked in relationships to tlessee and tbilling. I've read books/notes/looked on here for inspiration and the right direction! If I choose 'append' which seems pretty straight forward then a 'delete' query, how do I choose only one record? Is a make-table onto a different database a better option? It would appear that the whole table is copied over? Can't understand the issue about auto-numbers being copied over? Do I have to use an append/delete query for each individual property that's ever removed? I'm at a loss! :) Thanks
I've got an Append Query in an Access 2000 database that is not visible on the Query tab. I know it exists because when I try to create a new query and call it the same name it responds with "The name entered already exists for another object of the same type in this database"
I've tried ticking the System and Hidden objects but to no avail. Somebody please tell me where this query is hiding??
I am using an update query however when clicking on the run button within the query, i keep reciving an error message which i have attached. It basically refering that due to setting a primary Key on the table i cannot add all the records, however i need to set a primary key to the table to stop duplicate entries from being updated. Any help im confused.
The table is set up as: Line Number (Primary Key) WorkOrderNumber (Primary Key) ProdNo (Primary Key) ProductDescription Quantity CylinderSerial Number Status
I have set the first three fields as primary keys as there cannot be a Workorder number with the same line number and product number as another
for e.g. the follwing results cannot be shown Workorder number Line Number ProdNo 3333 1 221 3333 1 221
For e.g the follwing results can be shown
Workorder number Line Number ProdNo 3333 1 221 3333 2 221
I have set up a database that stores actions (i.e jobs). In the table; two of the fields are...'required completion date' and 'actual completion date'. I wish to lookup, by using a query, all of the open actions (those which havent yet been complete (i.e the 'actual completion date' is null)) and then later on all those which are overdue (i.e the 'actual completion date' is null And the 'required completion date' <today....this being the criteria for an overdue action).
However, I have used a form which has a combo box which contains the values open and overdue. When a selection has been made I want a form to display with the results depending on the selection that has been made. I am capable of creating a form based on a query, but am unsure of how to construct the query with the correct criteria based on the option that is selected from the form.
I have data for hundreds of stores. The data was pulled for the top 15 items by store, so I cannot obtain only the top 5 items that I need. How can I query this data to extract only the top (or bottom) 5 Subjects, by store, based on the percentage column?
I am trying to use a single record and cell of data generated from a query as criteria in another query but can't figure out how to do it? Is there a way to reference a query field in the criteria in design view of another query?
Details:
I have a table of data for each month with supplier codes in each table, but no date field.
I am trying to build a query that will automatically pick the most recent month of data. I have built a query that uses an iif statement in SQL assigning a number to the most recent month of data and then I am using the max filter in that query to show the single highest number (But this logic misses suppliers some suppliers but does assign a number to the most recent set of data). In this case its 2 for february data. I want to use this digit to filter a seperate criteria that will show me all the supplier codes for the month of february. One problem is that some suppliers are in every month others, come and go throughout the year, so I have to assign this criteria for each month. Therefore I want to use the 2 from the first query and plug that into each criteria section under each month field of the second query.
The other option that I can think of but can't seem to find a fix, is to merge all 12 tables so there are duplicate entries and can have a date or number assigned for each month that the supplier code shows up, then just use the max number. I can't seem to find a way to add all the codes creating duplicates into one field. I used a union query but there are no duplicates with this method thus foiling my plan.
I have a database that contain foreclosure records. I'd like to create a query that will ask for a date and all records that are LESS than the date will be moved to a different table.
I'd also created an icon on my form and I'd like to attach this query to it.
Please how can i use a procedure to create a query, then append the content of the query to a table (am using MS Access Project)? i did it in Microsoft acess database but now i need it on Microsoft access Project beacuase am transfering to SQL server. Thanks
Now i want to create an append query that will add in table ZALGA fealds PROIZ_I, TIP_I, DN_I, KOS_A, KOS_I by critera if TIP_A = TIP_I AND DN_A = DN_I then calculate KOS_Z = KOS_I - KOS_A?
I am building a database to hold information of training courses and staff that have requested or completed the training course.
I have built a form which the team leaders can use to request training for their team, basically when the form opens up it asks for team name and training session and then appends the names and training session ID to the main table. This then allows the team leader to tick the "request training" tick box which updates the table for each member they request trainig for. They would then send this using a custom command button which is linked through outlook.
The problem I am encountering is that if they were to selct the same team and training session again it would then append the same data to the table and this would create duplicate entries.
How can I set it up so it appends only once and then any other time the same data is selected by team leaders it would populate the form with the existing date rather than appending the same data.
Dear all, I have a trouble to run the append query. It is failed due to the key violations. Could you please help me how to solve this problem? Many thanks. Bich
Any assistance someone can give me with this append querry issue is appreciated.
I have a table called tblRoleAssignments that has three fields RoleAssignmentID (PK), RoleprofileID & ApplicationrightID. It looks something like this.
my append query will write new records depending on the RoleprofileID's I entered, for example If I run my append query on the above list I get the following output
My problem is when I run my append query I want it to enter a specific value in the role profile ID column (taken ideally from a field on a form that will be loaded) so instead of the query entering a zero it writes to the table a vaule I want. Below is how I want my append querry to write the data if I wanted the RoleprofileID to be set to 35.
I think i need to use an append query for this but have never used on before so just need to know if it is the right thing to do.
I have two tables [tblPoles] and [tblPoleInstructions].
I have a form set up for [tblPoles] so the user can enter the data required. One piece of data required is a start date. The only fields the tables have in common are the PK which is the Pole Number and the start date.
I want the user to be able to enter the start date on the form for tblPoles and it to be automatcially entered into tblPoleInstructions. Is an append query the right way to do this?
I have made some amendments to my brothers Database. Now I have a problem. How the hell do I append the data from his old one into his new one? It all seems very complicated. Can anybody advise? Basically the tables of primary interest are:
Append From tblCustomers1 to tblCustomers Append From tblCustomerContacts1 to tblCustomerContacts Append From tblOrders1 to tblOrders Append From tblOrderDetails1 to tblOrderDetails Append From tblPayments1 to tblPayments
How is this possible as Orders relate to Customers, Order Details relate to Orders, Payments to Orders, Contacts to Customers.....my brain is scrambled!!
Help on understanding Append queries appreciated. Regards, Phil.
I have a simple one here I think, but I am a newbie to SQL and Append Queries.
I have an Order Tracking Database with three tables: Orders (contains PK OrderID) OrderDetails (Contains PK OrderDetailsID and FK OrderID) Updates (Contains PK UpdateID and FK OrderDetailID)
The Orders table contains customer info and an order number (OrderID). This is manually entered, not an Autonumber. The OrderDetails table contains line items for products sold with that order. The OrderDetailID is an autonumber, and each record contains the OrderID field as a FK in a one-to-many relationship. Basic stuff. The Updates table is used for tracking the status of each product associated with an order as it flows through the back-end sales process, from production to shipping. The UpdateID field is the PK (Autonumber) and each record contains the OrderDetailID as a FK in a one-to-many relationship.
I do a monthly update of Orders and OrderDetails into those respective tables in Access on a monthly basis. I am just using cut and paste from a .csv file at this time. I am doing this because our company uses a Siebel program for tracking front end sales, but it does not do any back-end tracking at this time. So, I export the monthly sales as a .csv and import into Access. It seems to work fine for now, but it has been suggested in other discussion groups to use a temp table of the raw .csv data, import into Access, and create an Append query to update the Orders and OrderDetails. I will look into that.
The problem I have today is how to get Access to automatically create a new record in the Updates table for each OrderDetailID. So, when I paste (or later append) OrderDetails into the OrderDetails table, Access creates at the same time a new corresponding record in the Updates table. Each OrderDetailID can have many UpdateID's (one-to-many relationship).
I think I need a SQL statement that says "Update the Update table UpdateID with a new autonumber if the FK field OrderDetailsID within the Update table is null" or something like that.
I have a Form with a combo box that takes in formation from a table and auto fills it. But i cant get that autofilled info to enter into the main table.the one that the form is based off of. I tried to use an append query to move the info from one table to the other. It didnt work. does anyone know why this error pops up i cant see anything wrong...
Concrete Pumper Database Set 0 fieldsto Nulldue to a type conversionfailure, andit didnt add 3 records due to key violations, 0 records due to lock violations and 0 due to validation rule violations...

I have a form based on a table. In this table i have fields such as model #, button 1 configuration-button 12 configuration date entered, date shipped etc.I created a form from the table and Instead of entering each of the 12 button configurations I would like to have that entered automatically when a model # is selected from a combo box. So i made a table with just model # and button configurations and set up a combo box on the form to match. now i need to get the button config from the button config table to be entered into the MAIN TABLE when entered into the form by combo box. oh man...i dont know if im too far gone or what...this may not make sence so please give it your best...I appreciate any input at all. I thought i could do it with an append query and a macro but now i dont think so.
I have a database with a table linked to an Excel spreasheet. I am trying to create an append query to load data from the linked table into a candidate table. Each record in the candidate table has a candidate number which is automatically generated and is the primary key. When I run the query it cannot update the table because of key violations. I haven't got the candidate number as a field in the append query, do I need to put it in there? and if so how should it be setup? Any help would be much appreciated. :)
sorry a bit of a newbie to access. I am trying to do an append query, or should I say I have done an append query.
I am trying to build a database. The first query pulls data from a server with four tables linked into this, when you fnally get the ODBC to connect the data comes through. I have a delete query to clear down my Import table and then an append query to put all the dat from my query into this. This is where it goes all wrong and its so basic.
INSERT INTO tbl_ImportCenceo ( [email id], process, type, changedate ) SELECT qry_email1.[email id], qry_email1.process, qry_email1.type, qry_email1.changedate FROM qry_email1;
It has worked once and now it wont??????. The data runs and is in the append query but it is not transferring it to the import table. Can somebody tell me why Pleaseeeee!!! this is doing my head in!!!!.
Hello Gurus I have D/ase (2000) and one of the queries appended a set of wordings from another table (I'm in insurnace so these are endoresments) my qry works on the append basis I pick an endorsment from a drop down list and push a button and in gos the wording in to a new field (memo format)
all is fine - now the problem if the wording is over 255 chars long I only get 255 chars - now i know this is something to do with text - the fields where the info is coming from is a memo and the field it is going into is a memo - its the append query that decided to format that field to a text size - any ideas on how to get the querie to append memo instead of text size
many many thanks if someone can shed some light on this
