Prevention Incomplete Data Insertion
Oct 2, 2005Hello,
Does anybody know of a quick and easy way of preventing data insertion to a table from a form, so that table doesn't get updated unless all form fields are populated?
Thanks

Data Entry Prevention?, Tabular Vs Columnar
Dec 12, 2005Kinda stuck at deciding what I should do here.. What would be the best way to prevent a user from entering data into a tabular form without making sure a certain member exists first?
for example if I have a columnar form
BOXA BOXB (invisible or disabled by default)
1 of 2
I can have it check to see if BOXA has data
if it DOES i can make BOXB available for data entry
but lets say I have a tabular form....
BOXA BOXB
BOXA BOXB
1 of 2
How can I make it so that BOXB will not accept data entry UNLESS its corresponding BOXA has data in it already?...
A:[asldkfjaskd] B:[AVAILABLE FOR EDIT]
A:[] B:[NOT AVAILABLE UNTIL MEMBER IS CREATED]
It needs to be in tabular form too.. sigh.. anyway.. thanks for any help you might be able to provide
General :: CSV File And Incomplete Data Set
Nov 30, 2013I have imported some data from a csv file that is generated by a machine. The problem is this the first row of data is the time date stamp and the second, third, forth.... is the live data at that time and date:
So Something like this:
Time;Date;Data1;Data2;
10:00;30/11/2013;
; ;2000.00;3000.00
; ;2100.00;3100.00
What I would like to end up with is this:
Time;Date;Data1;Data2;
10:00;30/11/2013;
10:00;30/11/2013;2000.00;3000.00
10:00;30/11/2013;2100.00;3100.00
As there are some 10,000 records I would like to automate this and have dabbled with update queries and I am not getting far. how to do this either at the import stage or inside access.
Tables :: SKU Generator - Duplicate Record Prevention
Oct 29, 2012I am working on a SKU generator and I need to prevent duplicate SKUs, but each SKU is made from several different fields. i.e. Brand, Color, Design, etc.
I was wondering if Concatenating would be OK for this situation. I know concatenating usually results in redundant data and I try to avoid that.
I would like to just index (no duplicates) the entire record... is this possible? I can't just set that attribute to each field because there will be many duplicates on a per field basis. i.e. Brand will be duplicated every time I use the same vendor for a different shirt.
I can't just go back and address duplicates once they occur. I need to prevent them from occurring in the first place.
Access 2010 Database - Multi Users - Same Record Prevention
Jan 12, 2013I am the administrator for a 2010 Access Client Database that consists of many clients with their information and we have three users whom go in and edit-add information to this Database and it hasn't been a problem until two users have tried to edit the same client record at the same time and then we have had some issues...
So, not sure this is even possible, but can one prevent more than one user being on the same client record? Is there a way to have a message come and say this record is in use?
Insertion In To SQL Server
Sep 12, 2006I have an Access front end to a table residing on an SQL server. I am accessing the SQL server through a VPN over a DSL line.
Now, I have some data I need to insert in to that table. It sits in a text file. All in all, there are around 9000 records in the text file.
I had excel reading the text file, then cleaning up the data, then I would link the excel table via ODBC, and link to the SQL Server table, then do an INSERT INTO ServerTable Select * from ExcelTable; That would take about 22 minutes to finish.
I cleaned things up a bit, using VB to directly read the text file, and I can insert in to the ServerTable directly via an ADO recordset in about 18 minutes.
I want to get the time down further.
Now, if I read that text file and use ADO, I can insert all the records in an Access table on network share across that same VPN in about 4 minutes, so I figure there is about 14 minutes of overhead in dealing with the SQL server.
So is there anything I can do to decrease the amount of time it takes to insert the 9000 records in to the ServerTable?
Thanks,
David
PS. Oddly, I tried to limit the number of fields I data I upload, and found it actually took MORE time to send one field than it did to send all 30 some fields in the full dataset. I really can't figure that out.

MS Access Time Delays After Insertion
Nov 6, 2006Dear All,
I am facing a strange problem off late with the MS Access database. After Insertion of records, I close the recordset and not the connection as I use a global connection, which is set at the time of the app launch. Now, after closing the recordset I move on to the next job in the program flow and return a success to the calling function. Once the value is received by the calling function it opens the same table and finds no records there. I could come around this prob by providing a delay of a few seconds and then returning the value to the calling function. Can someone help me understand this prob and the solution to this?
Thanks in advance.

Prevent Insertion Of Blank Records
Nov 27, 2006I have a form that is opened by the following code:
Private Sub Status_AfterUpdate()
If Status.Value = "WIP - Snagged" Or Status.Value = "WIP - Suspended" Then
DoCmd.OpenForm "NotesJobChanged", , , acFormAdd
Forms!NotesJobChanged!txtJobNo.Value = Me!txtJobNo.Value
Forms!NotesJobChanged!Date.SetFocus
End If
This 'NotesJobChanged' form has three text boxes on it - JobNo, Date & Note. The JobNo is autofilled from the code above. If nothing is entered into the other fields and the form is closed this record is entered into the database with only the JobNo filled in.
What I want is a way to force the user to enter data into these fields. I don't want to set the 'Required' property of the field to yes as it generates an awful system error message. If the user attempts to close the form without filling it out can they be reminded that they have to, but with an option then to close the form if they really don't want to enter any data? If they do chose to close without filling it out can it be prevented from being added to the database.
Hope this makes sense :)
Many thanks in advance
Michael
Forms :: Automatic Insertion Of The Value Of Field?

View 2 Replies View RelatedCombobox Results Incomplete
Apr 19, 2006I have cascading comboboxes on my search form. The first selects a year, the second all hospitals with patients who had visits in that year, and the third is supposed to be populated with all patients who had visits at that hospital in that year. When I click on the third combobox, the results are incomplete. Some of the patients fitting the criteria are listed but not all of them. On each run there may be a different number of patients. If I just run the query by itself, all of the patients are listed. The combobox rowsource is:
SELECT DISTINCTROW [PatientNbr] & " - " & [PatientName] & " - " & [ServiceYear], [PatientNbr]
FROM qryFindPatients
ORDER BY [PatientName], [ServiceYear];;
The query (qryFindPatients) is:
SELECT tblSUR2941Master.ServiceYear, tblSUR2941Master.ProviderNbr, tblSUR2941Master.ProviderName, tblInterPatients.PatientName, tblSUR2941Master.PatientNbr
FROM (tblSUR2941Master INNER JOIN tblInterPatients ON tblSUR2941Master.PatientNbr = tblInterPatients.MedicaidNbr)
INNER JOIN tblInterPatientsEntries ON tblInterPatients.MedicaidNbr = tblInterPatientsEntries.MedicaidNbr
WHERE (((tblSUR2941Master.Sampled)="1"))
GROUP BY tblSUR2941Master.ServiceYear, tblSUR2941Master.ProviderNbr, tblSUR2941Master.ProviderName, tblInterPatients.PatientName, tblSUR2941Master.PatientNbr
HAVING (((tblSUR2941Master.ServiceYear)=[Forms]![frmIntermediateVisits]![txtRevYear]) AND ((tblSUR2941Master.ProviderName)=[Forms]![frmIntermediateVisits]![cboFacility]))
ORDER BY tblSUR2941Master.ServiceYear, tblSUR2941Master.ProviderName, tblInterPatients.PatientName;
How can I get all the patients to show up in the combobox?
Thanks in advance.
Queries :: Incomplete Capture In Query
Jul 11, 2013I have a query which exports to a excel file afterwards, however, it's not capturing all the data I need.My query is at the bottom, and I think the problem is the "(([tbl Master].ID)=[tblRequest].[Cost Centre]))" statement, as this means that it'll never pick up a Cost Centre starting with "Z", as they don't exist in [tbl Master] (they're exceptions to the rule basically).
What I need to do is only parse the statement "(([tbl Master].ID)=[tblRequest].[Cost Centre]))" if the Cost Centre doesn't start with "Z", if it does, then it'll find it in the table, as there's validation on the point of entry that don't start with it.
Code:
SELECT tblRequest.RequestID, 'N/A' AS [Week No], tblRequest.[Refund Date] AS [Date],
tblRequest.Requester, tblRequest.Authoriser, tblRequest.Refunder AS Processor,
tblRequest.[CRIS Reference] AS [CRIS Ref No], tblRequest.[Customer Title] & ' ' & [Customer Name] AS [Customer's Name],
[code]....
Queries :: Dates Not Changing - Incomplete Query Clause
Jan 17, 2014I have a date field NxtAPayDate that I need to update to the same day in the next calendar quarter. I have an update query set up using DATEADD but it does not change the dates. The table name is AutoPay
I am using the Query Design Grid. This is the SQL code behind the query:
UPDATE AutoPay SET AutoPay.NxtAPayDate = DateAdd("q",1,[AutoPay]![NxtAPayDate]);
When I view the results the dates are the same - original dates, when I try to sort the results, I get a message box with the following: syntax error, incomplete query clause?
I cannot get the dates to change by using a specific date either
UPDATE AutoPay SET AutoPay.NxtAPayDate = #1/2/2014#;
Forms :: Popup Form Updating Incomplete Records

However, I want to add an abort button that will close the form and save nothing entered however, I getting incomplete records and blank records. How can I code the button to not update the table and just close the form?
Modules & VBA :: Moving Record From One Table To Another - Incomplete Query Error
Sep 25, 2014The below SQL is basically trying move a record from one table to another, the table a copies of one another and the AlphaName variable is a string.

Syntax Error In Query. Incomplete Query Clause
Sep 28, 2005I am really stuck. I have spent two days searcinh different forums trying to solve my problem. I am trying to create an UPDATE q to my Access database. But I get either the: "Syntax error in query. Incomplete query clause" or "Syntax error in UPDATE query".
First of all here's the URL: www.innotec-as.no/login/Kunder
Login U/P either: "alfen" or "thomas".
The page opening up shows the user info, U/P and adress.
viewing the information is working perfectly - but editing it..no way.
When editing and submiting the data the above errors occour.
Try that and you'll also see the SQL I am trying to execute.
The CODE is as follows:
SQLtemp = "UPDATE 'Brukere' SET"
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & " 'navn' = '" & request("Navn") & "', "
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & " 'epst' = '" & request("Epst") & "', "
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & " 'Pass' = '" & request("Pass") & "', "
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & " 'Firma' = '" & request("Firma") & "', "
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & " 'BAdresse' = '" & request("BAdresse") & "', "
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & " 'BPostAdr' = '" & request("BPostAdr") & "', "
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & " 'PAdresse' = '" & request("PAdresse") & "', "
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & " 'PPostAdr' = '" & request("PPostAdr") & "', "
SQLtemp = SQLtemp & "WHERE 'Bnavn' = '" & request("Bnavn") & "'"
Response.Write(SQLtemp)
Response.End()
conn.Execute(SQLtemp)
rs.Update[/COLOR]
The finished SQL statement looks like this:
UPDATE 'Brukere' SET 'navn' = 'Alf Byman', 'epst' = 'alf@baccara.no', 'Pass' = 'alfen', 'Firma' = '', 'BAdresse' = '', 'BPostAdr' = '', 'PAdresse' = 'sdfg', 'PPostAdr' = '', WHERE 'Bnavn' = 'alfen'
I have tried to user single quotes, doubble quotes, brackets etc. nothing works.
The code I use for connection is as follows:
<!--#include file="../adovbs.inc"-->
<%
dim conn, rs, SQLtemp
' DSNless connection to Access Database
set conn = server.CreateObject ("ADODB.Connection")
rs="DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; "
rs=rs & "PWD=uralfjellet; DBQ=" & server.mappath("../../../../db/kunder.mdb")
conn.Open rs
I'll be very HAPPY for some expert help on this.
Using Data From Other Data Bases In A "main Data Base"..any Problems
Mar 27, 2008If my make queries in the data base and the source data base is another .mdb and the table names in the other .mdb which would be used for the queries are the same as those in the data base where the queries would be made......does anyone see any problems with that in the area of corruption or similar.
The queries made would be indentical to their counterparts in the data base where they are made and would serve the same purpose.
It would be a toggle type of thing whereby the recordsources for the forms in question would be changed.
For what I want to do it works perfectly but I am not sure if there would be problems that would only surface with longer term use and varied conditions as opposed to some short term testing.
Reports :: Report To Show Data Details Selectively For Each Field / Qualitative Data
Apr 16, 2014I have data from a survey with qualitative responses. For a single qualitative question, I moved the ID & responses into a new table and categorized the response according to a bucket/theme, where each column is a new bucket. I now have 10 columns. Each response is represented in 1 or more columns. I used an excel formula to copy the response data into the column itself.
Example:
A1 // B1// C1 // D1// E1//... L1
ID // Response // Cats // Dogs // Elephants //.... Column 10
1 // I like cats // I like cats //(null)//(null)// ... (null)//
2 // I like cats and dogs // I like cats and dogs // I like cats and dogs //(null)//..//
3 // etc.
However, now I'm realizing that Access always wants to show data for all records, or at most I can limit using a WHERE clause in my query.I want to use Access to generate this report:
1. Section 1: Show all responses from the Cats bucket where there is data
2. Section 2: Show all responses from the Dogs bucket where there is data
3. and so on
I know how to do summary values, and I know how to do filtering that apply across the whole report, but this seems like more advanced filtering, where I want to see selective details differently for each field.
Data Entry - Auto Fill Data For Exisitng Accounts In Records
Mar 9, 2006First I would like to give thanks to all the knowledgeable folks here who have helped me with my DB to date. It is working and every one is very happy and I have learned a lot.
So now I would like to add some more functionality to this existing project.
My DB is for data input of customers for a drawing. It has the following fields: Id, account number, first name, last name, date/time, score1, score2.
I t is taking a great deal of time for the users to enter in hundreds of entries a day. Most of the entries are customers who are already in the DB. I would like to get the fields to auto fill the data for existing customers say after the account number is entered. So after you put in the account the name and any other pertinent data would shows up saving users from typing it in again.
The first problem I am having is that this is still a data entry form and I can’t figure out how to be able to see the account information and still add new data to the record? The new data is a daily score they get.
Second I haven’t figured out how to call up the customers information from just the account field.
I’ve googled this and haven’t found anything terribly helpful.
Select 1 Pce Of Data And It Automatically Selects And Inputs Relating Data In A Form
Oct 24, 2007i would like in a form for a combo box to be able to select an item from a table and input relating information automatically into other boxes in the form..
I have 3 tables: Table 1 has product code and product description.
Table 2 has invoice number company details, address etc.
Table 3 has product code and product description qty and invoice number..
Table 3 relates to table 2 by the invoice number and table 3 product code looks up the product codes available in table 1 and also table 3 looks up the list of products descriptions in table 1 using the combo wizard.
This means the wrong code can be put with wrong description.
What i would like to know is how i select a product description and the product code in the form fills out automatically?? i hope this makes sense please helppppp!!
Forms :: Create Data Entry Form To Input Data For Field
Mar 5, 2015I an trying to create a data entry form (IndividualsEntryFm) to input data for fields such as (First Name),(Birthdate) etc., these to be saved to the (IndividualsTbl)
I also have another table (NamesTbl) which has family names etc. The two tables are linked by a (MainID) field. I want a combo box on the individualsEntryFm so that I can select the family name. Then I wish the empty fields for the IndividualsTbl to be available to enter data.When I press the save button I then want this data saved, together with the MainID from the combo box to the IndividualsTbl.
I have set the IndividualsTbl with a (PersonID) field as an auto number each individual therefore has a unique PersonID but may well share the MainID. I'm trying to link many people to the same address.

Queries :: Filter Data From A Table Using Query (from Data Input Form)
Dec 30, 2014I would like to filter data from a table using a query (from an data input form). The objective is to output all results if input form field is empty and to output results higher or equal to the type in the field if field is not Null. The query code is as follows:
IIf(IsNull([Forms]![Form2]![MaxDiffInput]);[Maximum operational pressure (bar)];[Maximum operational pressure (bar)]>=[Forms]![Form2]![MaxDiffInput])
However, is not providing any result when the input field (MaxDiffInput) as a value.
