Just A Quick Question On Recordset Function

Sep 29, 2005

sorry if this question seems misguided or stupid, but i figured maybe someone here could point me in the right direction. its really simple and short, and i did try searching first.

i have a query that i'm running as a record set:

Set status = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Select description FROM tblProducts WHERE product=" & [Forms]![frmLookup]![Text5])

and the field "product" is defined as text in the database. the problem is, when i try to look anything up via this query, my program returns that it cant find the record, even if it certainly matches something in the product field. now i'm pretty sure the structure of the query i'm using is for integers, not strings. my question is, what is the correct way to look for a string?

Quick Search Function On Menu

Mar 17, 2005

Quick question.....I have a menu that links to 4 main forms displaying data from 4 different tables. I wanted to add the facility to quick search on the menu(i.e enter a record (the primary key) into a text box and click search. I would then want it to open the exising form at the relevant record or produce an error message stating no record present. I would have 4 quick searches on the main menu (one for each form)).

If anyone could help me on this i would greatly appreciate it, or if you could point me in the direction of an example it would also be great (although i have been looking and havent seen one i can get my head round)

Cheers,

Marky

Split Function On A Recordset

Feb 2, 2006

Hi

i open a query as a recordset in VBA. i then need to use the split function to split up a few fields. how do i do this for the entire recordset.

for example:
MySplitVar = split(rst1("Field1"))
now i need
rst("Field2") = MySplitVar(0)
rst("Field3") = MySplitVar(1)

keep in mind i can't write to table. i need to somehow create a new recordset (maybe clone) and add columns to it. also, i don't know if this is relevant, but i will need to do this for up to 12 columns which means that i will have two per column; i.e. total columns=24

I see that nobody is posting an answer so i will add an explanation what i am doing.

i came up with a great idea. i need a crosstab that shows two values. so i created a a column that has both my columns in one column. value column shows the following:
myValue: = myFirstValue & " " & mySecondValue
and in the total i select First. so now i have a crosstab that shows two numbers with a space between them. now i have a report that will show this crosstab query. then i set each field's controlsource on the report to a particular field on the crosstab. my problem is that i first need to split it up and i am stuck there. i need to somehow add columns to the recordset.


thanks,

sam

Modules & VBA :: Loop Function Repeating First Line Of Recordset

Aug 17, 2015

managed to get some code up and running but when trying to enhance it I have hit a rut.

I have a function that is looking up a query called Optimisation - Auto Optimise with operational data in it. I only need 2 key fields; consolcode and volume. There are 106 records with different consolcodes each with different volume. e.g consolcode: Chittagong to Rotterdam201452 (Chittagong to Rotterdam by year "2014" by week "52") and volume 161 (cbm)

I then run a code that allocates the volume into specific sea freight containers and returns the values into a different output table.

The allocation code works fine but when I run the loop function for the recordset rsttradelane it runs for the correct amount of records (106) but always returns the first record of Chittagong to Rotterdam201452 and 161 cbm and not the other 105 consolcodes with the different cbm. Giving me an output table with Chittagong to Rotterdam201452 and 161 cbm repeated 105 times!!

Code:
Set rsttradelane = dbsEPIC.OpenRecordset("Optimisation - Auto Optimise")
consollane = rsttradelane!consolcode
ConsolVol = rsttradelane!Volume
Do Until rsttradelane.EOF
'Optimisation code' then
Code:
rsttradelane.MoveNext
Loop
rsttradelane.Close

How do I ensure that each consolcode and its associated cbm is recognised individually and flushed through the optimisation code?

Modules & VBA :: How To Extract Recordset From Subform Into Recordset Object

Aug 14, 2015

Special situation: The SQL Server Linked Server across the country is linked to a Read Only Oracle DB. This data pull works perfectly and populates the Subform.

The problem is that Oracle can take 3 to 6 seconds to retrieve the single record depending on the network traffic through a small pipe.

The code below shows the RecordSource for the SubForm. clicking on a list box supplies the value. Then 3 to 6 seconds later, the subform populates.

The actual Recordset for this Recordsource is needed to conduct Validation on each field. Normally this would be on SQL Server, I might just create a Recordset Oject and run this SQL statement again in 1 milisecond. In this case, it will probably take an additional 3 to 6 seconds. Avoiding another lengthy round-trip to Oracle would be prefered.

Goal: How does one grab, clone, or other wise reference the existing recordset for the SubForm?

Note: Immediate Window - One single field can be returned quickly

There are 48 fields that need validation - is there a way to reference the entire recordset?

Immediate Window during Break Mode:
? me.fsubsrNavSHLBHL("NavSH_QQ")
NESE ' this is the correct value for the current recordsource

Set a breakpoint right after the line:
fsubsrNavSHLBHL.Form.RecordSource = "Select * from vsrNavigatorSHLBHL where Well_ID =" & txtNavWellID.Value

Immediate Window:
? me.fsubsrNavSHLBHL.Form.RecordSource
Select * from vsrNavigatorSHLBHL where Well_ID =91229

Does A Filtered Mdb Recordset Still Bring Down The Whole Recordset?

Apr 27, 2007

Hi guys, I'm a bit confused: I know that opening a bound form will bring down the whole recordset. But if I create a parametered query as the recordsource, will it still bring down the whole recordset first and only afterwards cut down to the records matching the parameters?

Example: I have a clients table with 5000 clients on a backend mdb, and my client lookup form in my frontend mdb. If I open the form looking for just client "Jim Jones" (via the parameter query), will Access bring down all 5000 clients from the backend to my frontend first, and only then seek out "Jim Jones" before discarding the rest of the recordset?

For if this is true then this whole Access business is rather unsuited for networks, even a small one. I hope you guys prove me wrong.

Quick Question

May 4, 2006

Bit of a newbie so help appreciated.

The system I have developed lists jobs (as in jobs that staff members need to go and do) in different towns and cities. These jobs are set as active or inactive depending if completed.

I need to run a report that allows the user to find active jobs in a particular town. I have made a query and by setting the status field to a criteria of "active" this ensures that all results in the query are only active ones.

I cannot find a way to allow the person running the search to enter the name of the town that they want. This would then allow the query and then report to list all "active" jobs in a particular town.


I have a table containing all the towns so hope I can offer the user running the search a means to either type the name of the town into a box or even better (to reduce typo's) be able to choose the town from a combo box.

Once the town has been selected, the report will list all active jobs in that particular town.

Thanks

Can anyone

Quick Questions

Jun 21, 2007

I'm writing a field where it shows a combination of many fields.
For example, when a user types in "abc" in field 1, "def" in field 2, "ghi" in field 3, I will have to combine the three fields into "abc/def/ghi" with slashes in between them. However I don't want to have any slashes at the front or at the back the field.
There are unlimited fields of "abc" "def" "ghi" "jkl" "mno" etc. Any idea how I can write the code? I'm thinking using if statements. Is there other ways I can do this?
Thanks!!

Need Some Quick Advice

Nov 24, 2004

My Mgrs. have asked me to set up a spreadsheet to keep up with inventory for a certain section of the business. And I figured that in the long run it would be easier to set up a database instead of a spreadsheet. We have specific customers with specific products to keep together; and I have figured out how to fullfill this .... my problem lies with the actual inventory.

The questions:

1) Can I keep an Available tally for all products?
2) To ship out and receive in cargo do I need to make 2 tables or just 1?

I have to keep up with the location of the goods in the warehouse and I'm not sure if I should include that with the product table or a seperate inventory table.

I am not sure if I will be using the database to create 'orders' or what we call bills of lading to ship out the cargo so I'm a little lost on how to keep up with the quantity of each product in the warehouse. There is no 'reorder quantity' or anything like that. I just have to keep up with how much of each product I have in the warehouse. Then I also have to be able to keep track of what is received into the warehouse and what is shipped out of the warehouse.

Does any of this make sense? I'm so confused myself that I'm not sure that I am able to explain what I need or what my questions are without confusing any one I'm speaking with.

Database Check?... Can Someone Take A Quick Look Please?

Jun 12, 2006

Hey guys,
I'm having two small issues with my database. The first is, I can't get my drop-down to display content on the Form "frmSearch" under "Cast".

And the second, not really a problem, more of an inquiry... on the same form, is there a way to set a default value in the "released before..." and "released after..." of "(enter year - xxxx)" and have that value not interfere with the search feature if it is left as default?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm very new to database creation and an eager to learn about these things. Thank you!

Quick Question On Relationships..

Apr 1, 2007

I'm importing a rather large CSV file that has many employees, repeated on several lines (one line per day) that contains performance information.

If I want to create a separate table that will contain basic information about each employee (for inclusion on reports), would that be accomplished with a relationship?

I can setup a query to pull up the information by employee name, but I of course receive more than one row since on the import an employee can be listed several times (multiple rows).

The two tables would not share any data, I just want a setup so when a report is generated and a specific employee appears, this information is generated with it. Thanks :)
