Yet Another Append Key Violation Error....
Mar 30, 2008
Wow, this thing is annoying me. I give up! I've attached the database for anyone here to have a look at. I promise there's no nasty code on it, although you should be able to see my code and hopefully pick the problem if you disable macros anyway.
I use VBA to prompt users to enter their staff number, the member's number and the book ID. The same VBA checks to make sure that it's a valid number that they're entering, that's it's actually present in the table it's being referenced from. (Command0 button. Command1 is to return an item)
It then takes these values, the current date and another date variable and inserts into the LOAN table. The loan table has enforced referential relationships with the book, member and staff tables.
The insert code is:
vInsertLoanSQL = "INSERT INTO Loan(BookID, MemberID, StaffID, BorrowingDate, ReturnDate) VALUES (" & vBook & ", " & vMember & ", " & vStaff & ", #" & Format(Date, "Short Date") & "#, #" & Format(vDueDate, "dd/mm/yyyy") & "#)"
All the fields in Loan (except for the autonumber PK) are not required, and have no validation formulas, zero-length is permitted where applicable.
I KNOW that the numbers being inserted are in the related tables! They're the same data type - long integers, and the related tables' primary keys are not autonumbers.
So why am I still getting a key constraint violation??
Can someone please help me??
Correction: I'm trying to attach the database, but it's too big, even zipped. Why isn't RAR accepted? Anyway, the file is hosted here: http://jellopy.com/files/newdb.zip

Hi,
I am new user of access and have encounted a key violation from an append query. I'm trying to update a master mail-out list and am having a key violation that doesn't add some of my records.
Here is the SQL vew:
Also, I've checked the properties for both tables and they match, also I have "Allow zero length" set to yes.
I'd appreciate any help, thank you in advance.

Hey all. I'm trying to append rows to my database with some VBA code.
The code looks like this:
vInsertLoanSQL = "INSERT INTO Loan(BookID, MemberID, StaffID, BorrowingDate, ReturnDate) VALUES (" & vBook & "," & vMember & "," & vStaff & ", #" & Format(Date, "dd/mm/yyyy") & "# , #" & Format(vDueDate, "dd/mm/yyyy") & "#)"
DoCmd.RunSQL(vInsertLoanSQL)
The variables are all filled out.
The table that it's being inserted into, Loan, has an Autonumber primary key (not included in the INSERT script) and a number of other fields that have no zero-length restrictions, no "Required" fields set to Yes and no Indexes. The table in question is also completely empty, there are no rows (they have all been deleted) - so I have no idea why I'm getting that "Microsoft can't append all the rows in the append query" error. It says its a key violation but I really can't see how its possible.
Anyone out there know whats going on?

I am having problems with an append from a spreadsheet into a pre-populated table. I am using a macro to do this.
The table is in the middle of a hierarchy of tables. For example:
table 1 - Audit - key: AuditNumber & AuditName
table 2 - Process - key: AuditNumber & AuditName & ProcessRef
table 3 - Risk - key: AuditNumber & AuditName & ProcessRef & RiskRef
table 4 - Controls - key: AuditNumber & AuditName & ProcessRef & RiskRef & ControlRef
table 5 - Control tests - key: AuditNumber & AuditName & ProcessRef & RiskRef & ControlRef & TestRef
The front end of the database has a form for each table. Once you create an Audit in table 1 you can create multiple Processes underneath this one audit. Underneath a process you can create multiple Risks...... hence a hierarchy.
I am trying to append data to table 4 - controls. I have copied the format exactly into excel. I have also prepopulated the Audit, Process and Risk data in the required tables.
The reason I want this functionality is to enable team members to populate control information (oftentimes up to 25) in excel and then upload them easily into the database.
The macro I have created will work when created a new table. but when I point it at the existing table 4 - Controls I get the Key value violation error.

I have a database of Assessments, each record having multiple subforms.
I am working on a button, which creates a "similar" (same) assessment, copying over all the subform records/selections.
So, after I actually insert a new assessment, pasting all the values from the original Assessment:
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSelectRecord
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSaveRecord
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdPasteAppend
I need to copy over subform contents, for which I use an Append Query (actually, I use its SQL in VBA code to pass it the right parameters).
Now, naturally, I ran into Key Violations, because taking 50 sub-records from the original they would have their own AutoNumber Keys (ID's) and I can't append them into the same table.
My question: how do I copy over the same records (appending FROM and TO the same table) but cause the table to insert AutoNumbers for the records being appended?
Thanks!

- I have a module which runs queries on linked sales spreadsheets, to merge them in to one Access table.
- To prevent duplication of sales, the primary key merges the sales record and item number fields.
Today, it's found 103 key duplication errors, which is fine. But it's still adding data to the table. The data seems to be fields which aren't even mentioned in the query. It only does this when the query is ran from VBA.
Code:
MergeEbay = "INSERT INTO tblSales ( SalesRecord, SKU, PostCode, Shipping, Quantity, SalePrice, SalesRecordSKU, DateAdded )" & _
"SELECT exEbaySales.[Sales record number], IIf(exEbaySales.[Custom label] Is Null,'0',exEbaySales.[Custom label]), exEbaySales.[Buyer postcode], " & _
[code]...

No records are being imported. I am getting a validation rule violation but I don't have any rules. The forename and surname are straightforward text boxes and the ID is an autonumber.
Code:
INSERT INTO table_candidate ( Cand_ID, Cand_forename, Cand_surname )
SELECT candidates.Cand_ID, candidates.Cand_forename, candidates.Cand_surname
FROM candidates;
1. Is your append query trying to assign values to the primary key field? Could that be the source of the duplicate?
Yes but there are no duplicates
2. Do you have any other fields that are "Indexed: No Duplicates"? Any compound indexes?
No
3. Is the query assigning values to a field that is a foreign key to another table? Is it possible that these values do not match the values in that other table?
No. All child tables are empty.
4. Is there a validation rule on the table itself?
What this means.
5. Does the query attempt to assign a string with no characters in it (as opposed to a Null value) to a text field that has its Allow Zero Length property set to No?
Both fields are text and all records contain information
Required = No
Zero length = Yes
6. Is there a Default Value in one of the fields that is NOT being assigned by the query? For example, a foreign key with zero as the Default Value?
No
7. Is there data that is outside the range a field can accept, e.g. an integer larger than 32767, or a Null to a Yes/No field?
The length of the text in each record is not greater than the set limit
8. Is one of the query fields arriving in a format that Access is not understanding, e.g. for a date, or for a currency?
No

Hello I am new to this forum. I am trying to use the append query on two tables that are identical in data type, from TblA to TblB, but cannot append due to key violations for each row.
Both TblA and TablB have an autonumber primary key, although TblA does not need to have a primary key. Any suggestions as to what I should be looking for first?
Thanks

Hi, I have a form that consists several buttons. One is to delete a table A, then add records to several tables and eventually it will do a join and insert records to table A, and display a report. It always works while all tables reside in the same Access database. Now we are trying to migrate to SQL server but not ready to get rid of Access yet. So we exported all tables to SQL server and created linked tables. We can open tables directly from Access without any problem. It shows the contents as the SQL database But when we tried to open the form and run the same button as before, we got an error:
Microsoft Access can't delete 0 record(s) in the delete query due to key violations and n record(s) due to lock violations.
We have no idea why this happens. Most of the time, it worked the first time when we clicked on the button. But we got the message when we clicked on the same button the second time. If we clicked "Yes" then it will append new records. There will be duplicate records since it doesn't delete the existing ones.
Did any of you encounter a similar problem before? Thanks in advance!
Jenny

I am trying to change the standard input mask violation error message to a personalised one. I have found this code:
Private Sub Form_Error(DataErr As Integer, Response As Integer)
Const INPUTMASK_VIOLATION = 2279
If DataErr = INPUTMASK_VIOLATION Then
MsgBox "There was an input mask violation in the field no!!"
Response = acDataErrContinue
End If
End Sub
However, i would like to change the message for a number of different text boxes. and i don't know how to isolate each one, and give each one a different message?

I am building an access database for my college project and I essentially have a quotation form that when I click a button 'Convert to Invoice' it creates a new record in the invoice table and then creates new records in the invoice details table which match the quotation details table. This is working as it should but for only the first 2 customers in my customer table?
On the quote form I have a combo box which is linked to the customer table and updates the quote table based on the selection. If I select customer 1 or 2 and click 'convert to invoice' it works and opens an invoice form based on the inserted data however if I select any other customer it returns an error that the record wasn't added to the table due to key violations?
As far as I can tell I am not trying to update the primary keys in the Invoice Table or the Invoice Details Tables.

I am wanting to run a query in my FE which takes data from a Linked DB and copies this to my BE for general user access. The query itself contains three tables with the final table being a Left Outer Join.
If I run this query to append to a table in my FE it runs fine. If I run it to append to the exact same table copied to the BE I get the error "Record is Deleted". If I then open the table there is nothing showing in it. If I then run a delete query on the table it find records to delete.
After some investigation I have discovered this happens whenever there is null data on the Left Outer Join table.
Does anyone know why this works fine appending to the FE but not the BE and more importantly how to resolve or work round this problem.
Many Thanks

I have created an append query to begin the transfer of terminated employees to a separate table then delete them from the Active file using a Macro. I get an error running the append query and I have attached the error to this thread. I answer all the halts in the affirmative and the process does happen the way I want it to. The terminated employees get added to the Terminated table and they delete from the Active table. I don't understand what the error is telling me and why its doing the job anyway. Thanks for looking.
INSERT INTO tblEmployeesTerminated ( EmpID, LastName, FirstName, Status, [Position], EmpDate, TermDate, LastChgDate )
SELECT tblEmployeeRecord.EmpID, tblEmployeeRecord.LastName, tblEmployeeRecord.FirstName, tblEmployeeRecord.Status, tblEmployeeRecord.Position, tblEmployeeRecord.EmpDate, tblEmployeeRecord.TermDate, tblEmployeeRecord.LastChgDate
FROM tblEmployeeRecord
WHERE (((tblEmployeeRecord.Status)="Terminated") AND ((tblEmployeeRecord.TermDate) Is Not Null));

I'm trying to write a code so that it gets the data from a query (QryPrint) and then to put them in a temporary table (tblWeekData) so that I can present them in a report.
I have written the following code but the vba gives error constantly on DietID which is a field (into query).
Sub OpenReport()
Dim i As Integer, x As Integer, tmpMax As Integer, TheFood As String
Dim rsSource As DAO.Recordset
Dim rsTarget As DAO.Recordset
CurrentDb.Execute "DELETE * FROM tblWeekPlan"
Set rsTarget = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("tblWeekPlan", dbOpenDynaset)

I keep getting a syntax error (missing operator) with this bit of code when executing SQL in VBA.
"WHERE [tbl_Student_Roster].[Student Name]= " & [Forms]![form_Student_Roster]![Student_Name] & ";"
It is part of a larger piece, but the rest works (or does not give me an error).
Any ideas?
Thanks.

I have an MS Access 2003 front-end (queries, forms, reports) connected to a SQL server back-end database (SQL Server 2000).
When I try to run an append query against any of my SQL tables with a unique identifier, I get the error...
"Explicit value must be specified for Identity Column it table 'table1' when IDENTITY_INSERT is set to ON (#545)"
I am trying to create a duplicate record process for my users, by appending data using append queries to the same table. I used the MS Access built in wizard to duplicate the main record on the form, but was going to have to use append query code to duplicate the sub-form records.
Is there anyway around this error, or am I stuck as far as writing code to run this append query on the fly?
Thank you!
T.J.

Hey guys (again :o)
I've encountered another weird error when applying an append query through a button. Here's the code:
Private Sub cmdSaveChanges_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdSaveChanges_Click
'Saves the new Inspector information into the information table.
'Adds the two references created by adding a new inspector into the XREF_FILE_INSPECTOR table.
'This is the case that the references are formed by adding a completely new inspector.
If (IsNull(cmbInspector) Or Me.cmbInspector = "") Then
'Saves Inspector information
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acRecordsMenu, acSaveRecord, , acMenuVer70
'Adds references
DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO XREF_FILE_INSPECTOR" _
& "(FILE_NUMBER_CD, INSPECTOR_NUMBER_CD) VALUES " _
& "(" & [Forms]![GeneralFile].[txtGeneralFileNumber] & "," & [Forms]![AddInspector].[txtInspectorNumber] & ");"
Else
'This is the case where the user chooses an inspector from the provided combo box.
DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO XREF_FILE_INSPECTOR " _
& "(FILE_NUMBER_CD, INSPECTOR_NUMBER_CD) VALUES " _
& "(" & [Forms]![GeneralFile].[txtGeneralFileNumber] & "," & cmbInspector.Column(0) & " );"
End If
Exit_cmdSaveChanges_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_cmdSaveChanges_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdSaveChanges_Click
End Sub
The problem is, when I run this I get a "Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement". This seems to only be the case for the first part of the IF statement, as the second part's append query works fine.
Help!

Okay,
I have 33,099 records in a query, that i'm importing into a table. (don't bother witht he semantics, it's from a linked dbf file)
The table does not have a primary key. Given Three Fields (out of 74):
Item_ID
Title
AltTitle
With the table populated with all the records, I highlighted those three fields in Design View of the table, and told told access to make all three of them the Primary key. Upon attempting to save the table, I got an error message saying that data in the table violated the primary key unique fields rule or what not.
So I wanted to make a query to determine where the error occurred. I could not off the top of my head figure out how to select only the duplicated records in a table, so instead, i figured if they violated the Primary Key unique field rule, there should be duplicate entries. so I did this:
select distinctrow item_id, title, alttitle from tbl_Table;
I got 33, 099 records returned on the DISTINCTROW. Strange as that was, I deleted all the records from the table, set the primary key as I wanted it, and then repopulated the table via my sql insert into commands. This time the table reports only 33,093 records, meaning 6 records somehow violate the primary key unique index, but don't violate a DISTINCTROW call. How can i find them to determine how they are violating the primary key unique index?
thanks

Hey, I am getting a primary key violation when I try to run an update query.
My primary key is a combination of two fields, ScheduleID and SchedulePage. That way for each schedule I can only have one Page 1, one Page 2, etc.
When I want to insert a page (say a new Page 2), I need to update the table so that Page 2 becomes Page 3, Page 3 becomes Page 4, and so on.
The problem is, since it starts at the bottom, when I tell it to increase the page number by one, it's conflicting with the primary key of the next record.
Any ideas? BTW, if the solution has to do with sorting, I need to make sure it's something that always defaults back to the correct sort, since users may be able to change the sort and accidentally save it. Plus, I'll need to do the same thing in reverse (delete a page).
DoCmd.RunSQL "UPDATE Pages " & _
"SET Pages.SchedulePage = [SchedulePage]+1 " & _
"WHERE (((Pages.ScheduleID)= " & varScheduleID & ") AND ((Pages.SchedulePage)>" & varSchedulePage & "));"

I am trying to add a "T" in front of an article number and write this new number to a table.Access cannot find the new Article strArt because it does not exist. When I put a msgbox after "if .nomatch then" it correctly shows the message. Yet it refuses to create the new record because of a key/index violation. Apart from an index on the recordkey, it has an index on Artno, both indexes do not (obviously) want duplicate values.
Here is the code:
Private Sub btnCopyT_Click()
Dim db As Database
Dim rstArt As Recordset
Dim strArt As String
Set db = CurrentDb
strArt = "T" & Me.frmNomenclatuurSubfrm.Form.Artno

I have two tables, submit and imgdest. Submit is edited by front-end users to load pictures for back-end users who then delete the images when they're done with them. Submit is edited by a form, in the form I've placed a button (Command37) that has code:
Code:
Private Sub Command37_Click()
Call InsertData
MsgBox "Completed", "0", "Completed Backup"
Exit Sub
End Sub
Private Sub InsertData()
[code]....
This code was working for a short while, now anytime it's run I get error 3027 - Cannot update. Database or object is read-only. However, I can open the linked table and manually change information in it with no problems.
