How do I create a table using CREATE TABLE for fields that are Currency and Yes/No fields???
This does not work.
SQL = "CREATE TABLE Voucher_Details (VoucherReference NUMBER, ProductID NUMBER, Cost CURRENCY, Redeemed BOOLEAN)"
how to change default currency in Access 2013 to a "foreign currency" (i.e. to Indonesia Rupiahs) without changing control panel (Region/Language>currency) - now setup as USA ($US)?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am importing a spreadsheet from Excel - the problem is that one of the columns in excel has a currency and text format (ex. $123,000 in B5 and 3M in B6). I know in Excel you can have both formats in one column since each cell can be formatted individually - how do I replicate this in Access?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a make-table query that pulls all the fields from 1 table (MainTable), and creates a new table with a date stamp based apon a form value entered (New Table = MainTableWithDate).
Currently, I setup the query to pull info from the form field like this:
DateField: [Forms]![frmmain]![DateField]
However, when the make-table query is done - all date fields are blank (all other fields are correctly created), and when I look at the new created table (mainTableWIthDate), the typeassigned to the date field is "Binary" (in the form, I've specified LongDate).
I have three tables that contain different columns but linked by a primary column call Name. I want to create a table where all these different columns in the three tables join to form a master table which can be updated regularly either through the master table or the smaller tables. The master table also has the primary column as Name.
If I update the master table with records, it should update the respective linked table and vice versa. I also want to link these tables to my SharePoint site.
Note: except the Name column, none of these tables have any other columns in common How do I go about this?
Here is what I am trying to do: I have form, and a table which is created from this form. The data is entered a second time using the form to make sure there are no discrepancies.
Any easiest way to implement this? (create a new table (which is duplicate), and then compare them?
I have two tables. The first one is as follows:
MP No (Primary key), Sales, Date Entry, Specs, Email
The second Table is as follows:
MP No, Quantity, Description, DWG, Price
There is a "one-to-many" relationship between the two tables through the MP No field so whenever I go to the first table there is a sub-table for each MP No. Correct?can I create an extra sub table under the sub table already created?
I'm a relative newbie to the more advanced features available to Access.
If someone could help me or point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it.
I have one table that contains companies and associated contact info. Each company can have more than one unique number ID (3 digit alphanumeric).
I want to take this table and run a query to create a new table that will only have one instance of each company name, along with the other contact information. The unique ID's aren't needed in this table (but it would be great if I could somehow toss them in, too).
This new table would then be used to create a form with a combo box containing all of the names to quickly jump to their contact info.
Any and all help would be appreciated. If a query isn't the best avenue for this, then please point me in that direction, too.
Thanks!
Hi there :)
I'm not sure if I've picked the right forum topic for this... It's not a straightforward table question, and I think the only way I can do what I need is with a query of some sort. Apologies if it should have gone in 'Tables'...
The situation is: I'm creating a database (using Access 2003) in which our secretaries can enter exam marks for students. The difficulty is that there are ten papers (exams), each student's exam is marked by at least two examiners and there are at least 6 examiners per paper. Every examiner also marks more than one paper, but doesn't mark all papers.
So, I've got a table with all of the examiners and the papers they're marking and I've got a table with all the students and the papers they're taking. Because we have to enter the marks in such a way that we know both which mark an examiner gave and (obviously) which mark a student received (e.g. so we can look at statistics for each examiner), I thought the best way to do this would be to run a query that created a new table per paper in which the field names would be: Student_ID, <name of examiner 1 for the paper>, <name of examiner 2 for the paper>, <name of examiner 3 for the paper>, etc until the end of the list of examiners for that paper. The student's number would populate the Student_ID field and then the secretaries would enter each examiner's mark in their named field. Like this:
| Student_ID | A.N. Other | J. Blogs | J.Q. Public | Agreed_Mark |
1234A 72 74 73
2345B 65 68 67
3456C 71 73 72
4567D 52 51 52
Listing the name of every examiner (including those who aren't marking that particular paper) isn't an option (and would have to be hard coded into a table in any case, as far as I'm aware, either in a query or in a table design. This is something I'm loathe to do). Ideally, the secretary would be able to press a button on a form and have all the mark entry tables for all the papers created automagically.
The examiners for the different papers change every year, and not every academic marks exams every year, so this data will not remain static. Hard coding a table with examiner names would make more work for the secretaries. (I want to avoid this as all mark entering for all students is done in a single day. This means over 600 students at 3 marks per student [mark 1, mark 2, and final agreed mark] with time to contact examiners with questions... and only 2 secretaries, each of whom deals with a different section of students).
Because of the nature of the marking, it would also make quite a lot of work for the secretaries if we had to cross reference a generic Examiner_1 field with a different examiner for each paper, so the field name really must be the examiner's actual name.
Can anyone help me? I'm happy to do it with either VB or SQL; I'm not a programmer, but I can usually work out what code does even if I can't write it myself. I should be able to adapt anything presented as long as it's complete and doesn't assume that I know the basics. :) I've also got two reference books to hand: _Microsoft Access 2003 Forms, Reports and Queries_ by Paul McFedries and _How to Do Everything with Microsoft Office Access 2003_ by Virginia Anderson.
Thanks very much for your time. :)

I split my db to front-end and back-end. 20 users are using the database. But now I have the problem: In my admin front-end db I created a new table and some reports to the table, but this new table I have only in my front-end db and it doesnot appeares in back-end db - so that other users has no data in hte report for the new table. How I can create new table to be in back-and table too?

HI,
I have a running application which I created in excel.
Each time a new copy of the excel sheet is worked with, I need to create a new table in an access database, that holds part of the data coming from excel.
Can you explain, or can you point me to a manual that I can read that explains how to do this ?
I have a dilemma. I need my app to print out legally binding property schedules for insurance purposes. A property can have any number of schedules created during a year according to how many changes are made.
My instinct is to use a set of nested queries to generate the reports and then save them as snapshots should they need to be referred to later (they will!!).
However I have just been wondering if I should create a new table that gets populated with the full data for each property schedule when one is printed so that there is a definitive and tangible record for each schedule.
The latter seems like not good practice within Access as I know it but I have this niggling hunch that it might be the right approach for this app. On the lazier note it would also make re-creation or subsequent investigation very much easier than having a whole sequence of horribly dynamic queries!
Does anyone have anything similar (sure someone does) and what did they do?
Thanks for any input
Hello,
I am trying to find out if there is a way for me to create a table based on a specific month. For example I might select January 2005, I would then want to create a table with all the days of that month included, so that I could then add specific data to each day.
Is there a way that I can simply query the system calendar to do this sort of thing. I have spent quite a lot of time searching through this forum but have had no luck.
Thanks for any help

I'm trying to create a table that automatically contains records for every permutation of the two foreign keys it imports. Let me explain with an example:
I have a Characters table: CharacterID (Primary Key)
CharacterName
CharacterClass
[...]
And, I have a Skills table: SkillID (Primary Key)
SkillName
SkillDescription
[...]
I want a third table named CharacterSkills to combine those two tables. It might look like this: CharacterID (Primary Key)
SkillID (Primary Key)
CharacterSkillSlot
[...]
That looks a lot like a junction table for a many-to-many relationship. The difference is I want this table automatically filled with every combination of Characters and Skills. For example, if I have three characters and five skills this table would contain fifteen records. If I add a fourth character I'd expect this table to grow by another five records (as one record per skill is automatically added).
Here are those same tables with some example data.
Characters table: CHR01, King Loo, [...]
CHR02, Humble Pie, [...]
CHR03, Jayne Bo, [...]
Skills table: SK01, Amity, [...]
SK02, Diversion, [...]
SK03, Banish, [...]
SK04, Guilt, [...]
SK05, Shame, [...]
CharacterSkills table: CHR01, SK01, [...]
CHR01, SK02, [...]
CHR01, SK03, [...]
CHR01, SK04, [...]
CHR01, SK05, [...]
CHR02, SK01, [...]
CHR02, SK02, [...]
CHR02, SK03, [...]
CHR02, SK04, [...]
CHR02, SK05, [...]
CHR03, SK01, [...]
CHR03, SK02, [...]
CHR03, SK03, [...]
CHR03, SK04, [...]
CHR03, SK05, [...]
Any pointers on how to create this magical third table, or whether it' possible at all, will be greatly appreciated.
Hello:
I have a "create table" statement as an action for one of my command buttons (on a form) within my access db. I can create a yesno field with no problem, my question is - how within the same "create table" statement or otherwise with code can I make the yesno field appear as a checkbox?
I can do it within the design view of the table once the table is created, but I want to do it on the fly. Also, I don't want to do this within a form, just on the table itself.
Thanks in advance

Hi All
I am trying to create a database for estimating manhours on projects. There is a setup table with two columns: "Project" and "Time Period". The database is supposed to allocate manhours to tasks on projects, which is used in estimating man hour costs and also forecasting labour resource requirements.
For example, say the database is used for "Project X" and "Project Y" projects, with Project X running from Jan to March and Project Y running from Aug to Dec. The setup table would look like this:
PROJECT TIME PERIOD
Project X Jan
Project X Feb
Project X March
Project Y Aug
Project Y Sept
Project Y Oct
Project Y Nov
Project Y Dec
From this table, I need to automatically create a new table for each unique project that allows man power to be allocated to each time period. Following on with the example, there are two unique projects, so two tables
need to be automatically created with column headings as per below:
Project X table:
FUNCTION PERSON JAN FEB MARCH
Project Y table:
FUNCTION PERSON AUG SEPT OCT NOV DEC
"Function" is a description of a role, for example engineer. "Person" is the individual undertaking that role, for example Bob Jane. Then in each time period a number between 0 and 1 would be entered corresponding to how much time (0 is no time, 1 is full time) that person would be spending on that function for that time period. Then the table would be populated with many functions and people in this manner.
So the number of tables automatically created depends on how many unique projects there are in the "Project" field of the setup table. The number of columns in these tables will be atleast two: "Function" and "Person",
plus another column for each time period defined for that project.
Perhaps something can be done with a make-table query, but all I can get that to do is copy data from one table straight into another table.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thankyou in advance.

Hi
I need help to create a table programmatically in access. I have 2 tables. For e.g.
Table A
Field1 Field2
abcde 12345
bbbbb 54321
and Table B
Field1 Field2
abcde 99887
bbbbb 76543
As you can see Field1 of both tables are the same. I just need to create a Table Table C such that
Table C
Field1 Field2 Field3
abcde 12345 99887
bbbbb 54321 76543
Can this be done using a macro? Thanks so much in advance
Hi,
a ER programm gives the following output to an sql code, which it pretends it should be for Access 97. Till now I haven't found an idea of how to create a table using the SQL statement CREATE. As a matter of fact it returns me an error of Create statement or something, even if I tried any available query form.

Hi,
I am writing ddl statement for creating tables in access, i would need to provide a default date for a date column, how can i do this in a ddl statement ?
In the table design window in the gui, i can do it by providing the default as "=format(now())" but it seems not to work in the ddl statement.
also, is it possible to generate the ddl sql statement for an existing table in the database, i would need to know how can this be done too.

Hi
Is there a quick way to split up a table into many other tables? I want to split the table by Client Number, so all the Clients with 1234, for example, are in a table called Client1234
I know the very long winded way, creating a ‘Create New Table’ query, inputting the Client Code criteria each time.
Is there a better more efficient way?
