Hello again!
Does anyone know if it is possible to execute a form daily?? Like a winows scheduled task or something??
The form I need to run daily basically takes the information from one .txt and keeps it into a table.
Thank you!
is there a simple way to get my access form into VB?
I have vb.
do I have to redo everything?
They really should have made it so you could export the form as a .vb or .frm file so you could open and alter it in the real VB!
Grr.. microsoft!
Please say there is a way!
I want to make my form executable. Thanks in advance
There is a form where whenever the form is closed, the below code needs to execute:
If IsNull(Me.CostPerPiece1.Value) = True And IsNull(Me.CostPerPiece2.Value) = True And IsNull(Me.CostPerPiece3.Value) = True And IsNull(Me.CostPerPiece4.Value) = True And IsNull(Me.CostPerPiece5.Value) = True Then
Me.AllowAdditions = False
DoCmd.SetWarnings (0)
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdDeleteRecord
DoCmd.SetWarnings (-1)
Else
Call AppendQuoteCharges
End If
The If Then just looks at if certain fields are all null and if so, it deletes the current record. If at least one field is not null, the AppendQuoteCharges routine is called.
The form has 4 or 5 navigation buttons that close this form and send you to a different one. I've added the above code to each of those buttons before it runs the DoCmd.Close Form. I also have a Exit button that runs a DoCmd.Quit. I developed this months back but I'm pretty sure I added the above code under each button's click event rather than a Form On Close event because Form On Close does not execute after a DoCmd.Quit command
In rare cases, the form is being closed without the routine being ran. I think if a user clicks the Close button in the top right of Access (the X), it might be running a DoCmd.Quit which is doesn't run this code.
How can I be sure that whenever the form is closed or exited, the code is ran? Is there a way to tie this code to the user clicking the X in the top right?
Just had a query in my mind. I have a table master_data with 16 columns. so please tell me which one of the following would less time to execute.
1. select * from master_data;
2. select cust_name from master_data;
From the above example, i am interested to know, does number of parameters selected in the query effect the execution time.
I'v defined an update query as a string in my VBA code.
Then I execute the update query with : CurrentProject.Connection.Execute
however, I want the query out of the code and into the query folder where the other query's are.
How can I execute the query from within the VBA code when I do this ?
Can I execute a query I have stored in my Access database by using ASP from a webpage?
Thanks,
Been at the for 3 hours.
Hi all
I'm stuck on the following SQL statement. It looks OK to me... but there must be something wrong with it because it doesn't execute.
I've tried the runSQL command and I've tried currentproject. connection.execute as well. Both fail to execute... it has to be the SQL string below.
Thanks for any advice.
SQLImportPE = "UPDATE data INNER JOIN data_import ON data.ID = data_import.ID" & _
"SET data.pe1 = data_import.pe1, data.pe2 = data_import.pe2, data.pe3 = data_import.pe3, data.pe4 = data_import.pe4, data.pe5 = data_import.pe5, data.effort_pe = data_import.effort_pe" & _
"WHERE (((data_import.pe1) Is Not Null));"
Hi,
Based upon the parameter given i want to run different queries
i need to do the below in one query.
PARAMETERS Proj Text( 30 );
If proj="All"
Select * from TbProj
else
Select * from TbProj where Proj_ID=proj;
I want to build an access query like above.
I don't know whether it supports using IF statements.
how to do the above.
Thanks.
Can I keep my queries in the C drive and execute it against tables that are in the LAN network drive ? Right now the queries are also in the netowrk drive. So each time when I refresh the data into C drive, I have to import the queries too.
Is it possible to keep the queries in the C drive and execute against data in the netowrk ? Please let me know.
Thanks in advance.
Is there a way to execute two statements in one query in access? I tried the following but received the following: "Characters found at the end of the SQL statment".
Here is what I have in my qryUpdateRecords file:

I'm opening a second database (db2).
Copying the structure of a db2 table to db3.
Populating the table in db3 with a subset of records from db2.
I've gotten as far as opening the db2 and copying the table structure. Can't figure out how to run the query using execute rather than docmd.openquery.
Code:
Dim appAccess As Access.Application
Set appAccess = New Access.Application
appAccess .OpenCurrentDatabase "DbPathString"
'copy the table structure to dbQn, overwrites any previous with same name
[Code] ......
I got the error message cannot execute command after we upgraded from Access 97 to Access 2000. There are multiple users connected to one database on Windows 2000. Some people are able to get access, but there is a good chunk of people that get the error message " Cannot execute Command".
What's going on and is there a solution?
I have a stored query in my db. The query gets the recordcount of all the items in a table.
In my VBA, rather than code a new db conection, set a recordset etc, I want to execute the query using DoCmd
=======
DoCmd.OpenQuery stDocName, acNormal, acEdit
=======
The above line displays the results of the query.
What I really want is to run the query and store the recordCount in a variable - without displaying the results.
Can this be done?
Thanks all
Can anyone help...
I am writing a query in which, amongst other things, I also want to perform a dateadd calculation.
I have the following
expr:dateadd("d", [lastduration], [lastlandingslot])
This fails to run as the expression is too complicated, I suspect this is because a lot of the records will not have a [lastduration] and its therefore null.
I have ran the code below sucessfully.
expr:dateadd("d", 1,[lastlandingslot])
How can I get this to execute only if the [lastduration] is not null??
Tried to search but network is really slow

i am querying two tables TBL_FCST_WKLY which has 29500 records and TBL_ACTUAL_WKLY which has 798222 records.
When i run this query it sites there forever. Is it because i dint optimize my query or is it because the number of records is too much for access? can someone help plz.
thanks
Because my tables were already large I split them up by environment to speed up data maintenence and retrieval. Thus I have table names which contain the environment as part of the table name (ex: tbl_TEST_MyTable, tbl_PROD_MyTable). Once the user sets the environment they want to use (by clicking on an option button) I update the form's recordsource to the appropriate table. My form has 5 subforms within it.
Even with the split loading the form was taking a long time because some of the queries the subforms are based on are joining tables so that they can be linked (parent/child) to the form. I created indexes to speed up the data access which helped a little but it was still running too slow. So, I attempted to change the subform's queries to only join the necessary data by re-creating the queries each time the user changes the form's current record.
For example, what I had originally was taking too long:
SELECT DISTINCT tb.*, pt.CollId, pt.ProgName, pt.QueryNo
FROM tbl_TEST_SysTables AS tb INNER JOIN tbl_TEST_Plan_Table AS pt
ON tb.Name = pt.TName
ORDER BY tb.Name;
and the parent/child link fields are CollId, ProgName, and QueryNo.
This is the change I made:
SELECT DISTINCT tb.*, pt.CollId, pt.ProgName, pt.QueryNo
FROM tbl_TEST_SysTables AS tb INNER JOIN tbl_TEST_Plan_Table AS pt
ON tb.Name = pt.TName
WHERE pt.CollId = 'BATCH_COLLECTION'
AND pt.ProgName = 'PROGRAM1
AND pt.QueryNo = 123
ORDER BY tb.Name;
where the pt fields are changed dynamically each time the user navigates to the next record in the form. This resulted in much faster access time; however I discovered that the form was always displaying the query that existed before the form was opened. I have not been able to figure out how to get the subforms to display the latest created query.
While debugging I discovered that the form's OnCurrent event was being executed 3 times before the form is opened. I don't know what I'm doing that's causing this.
I also discovered that the subform events are executed before the form's events, so I think that's why the latest query isn't being used. I attempted to requery the subform in the form's OnCurrent and OnOpen event, but to no avail.
I seem to be having a problem opening a file if there happens to be any spaces in the file name. If I open a .pdf no problem acro reader opens it but if it is in word or excell or any other tells me that the file can not be found and seems that only the first part of the file name before a space in the name and the file extention.
example: "Test it.doc" would appear as "Test.doc". somewhere it seems to be trimming the file name.
Got a problem here:
Timer Interval = 5 Seconds
Private Sub Form_Timer()
My code here..
End Sub
The code repeats every 5 seconds, what I want to do is to execute it only once.
Is there a way to run a query, macro, and/or report in the "background". By this I mean in a way that frees up the current operator to do other things in the database while the query, macro, report keep on running?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using MS Access 2007 and I am trying, from my VBA code, to execute (or run) a Batch file. Now the batch foile works, but not from my code.
I used to be able to just do this --> Call Shell("S:AccountingAPTex FilesFile List Generator.cmd ", 1) And it would runit. But using this I get a message telling me that it is an invalid procedure call. So upon looking around on the net I found tha ton place said that with MS Access 2007 you need to do this:
Call Shell(Environ$("COMSPEC") & " /c S:AccountingAP1099 ITEMSW9 FolderCorrected 2011 W9File List Generator.cmd ", vbNormalFocus)
But while it does not error out it dooes noting eitheer. What the batch file does, when it works, is produces a list of all the file names in a folder.
I have a list box (1L) in a form (1F) that list member IDs from a table. Then I have a query (1Q) that use (1L) member ID to get data from a table another related table. When I change the 1L and run the query 1Q the results is correct. So I added a new list box (2L) in form 1F that show the results of the query. When I open the form 1F the 2L is populated correctly by the query. Here is my problem. I need to have list 2L update when I change 1L. Here is what I did. I created an On Change event for 1L that has a code Me.2L.Requery, but nothing happens.
View 1 Replies View RelatedA new query I am building, after entering an expression, gave the " You tried to execute a query that does not include the specified expression.." error. The new query is based on and uses expressions from another query. The error message listed the expressions from the query upon which this query was based. Copying in all the fields referenced in the error message did not work.
Here is the SQL code, the offending expression in red:
SELECT [Test Grade Results].[Class Number], [Test Grade Results].StudentNumber, Count([Test Grade Results].[Test Number]) AS [CountOfTest Number], Avg([Test Grade Results].[41Grade]) AS AvgOf41Grade, Sum([Test Grade Results].Wghtd41) AS SumOfWghtd41, [GPA]=Sum([Test Grade Results]![Wghtd41])/[Test Grade Results]![CuumWeightDivisor] AS Expr1FROM [Test Grade Results] INNER JOIN [Test Parameters] ON [Test Grade Results].[Test Number] = [Test Parameters].TestNumberGROUP BY [Test Grade Results].[Class Number], [Test Grade Results].StudentNumber;
Wghtd41 is the expession that is included in the error message.
All I want to do is run a make table query (or append) and show the user how many records were processed.
If I try to set recordset equal to the qdf.Execute I get the Compile error "Expected Function or variable".
I'm not sure what I'm missing...I've searched numerous threads and tried various combos of the execute method.
strquery = "qryEmailGenerate"
Set db = CurrentDb
Set qdf = db.QueryDefs(strquery)
Set rs = qdf.Execute
txtStatus = "Number of email recs: " & rs.RecordCount & vbCrLf
This is the SQL from a query for a Payroll report. It was an already existing report, so I'm trying to modify it to meet the business's needs. The problem is that there are multiple entries for WOLabor.Hours for a given day. These entries come from the invoicing program when a mechanic's hours are logged for billable time. So there may be 3 hours here and 1.5 hours there...but all for the same day. Payroll is just concerned with total hours worked...so I'm trying to combine all the hours for a given day into one variable or something and use that. I know this is long, but apparently a lot of fields are involved:

I'm trying to do something with Excel and Access. From Excel 2007, I need to open an Access database exclusive, import from Access to Excel a table, do some work within Excel, and then start a macro within the Access database. Briefly, here’s what I have
1) To open the database exclusively:
Set connDB = New ADODB.Connection
With connDB
.Provider = "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0"
.Mode = adModeShareExclusive
.Open strdbpath 'path to database
End With
2) To import from Access:
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM [" & tn & "];" 'tn is Access table
If connDB.State = adStateOpen Then
Set objRS = New ADODB.Recordset
objRS.Open strSQL, connDB, adOpenForwardOnly
On Error Resume Next
objRS.MoveFirst
If Err.Number = 0 Then
On Error GoTo 0
fieldCnt = objRS.Fields.Count
For fieldNum = 0 To fieldCnt - 1
ws.Cells(1, fieldNum + 1).Value = objRS.Fie(fieldNum).Name
Next fieldNum
ws.Cells(2, 1).CopyFromRecordset objRS
End If
End If
3) To start a macro:
DoCmd.RunMacro "Daily Import"
Everything seems to work until the ‘DoCmd’ statement where I get a “You can’t carry out this action at the present time” error message.
