Phone Number Input Help

Jan 20, 2006

Greetings... I am setting up a text box to accept a phone number with an input mask of 000-000-0000;0;_ but it isnt doing quite what I want it to do, I would like it to start at the begining when clicked to prevent the error of a user typing in the number a space too far to the right. (right now it places the cursor where ever the user clicks, which becomes a major pain when you want to just be able to click the field anywhere and type from left to right for sake of speed)

thanks for any solutions you might have to offer

Add Padding To Phone Number

Nov 27, 2006

I have a list of about 900 phone numbers, which have been formatted in excel to have a 0 at the beginning of the phone number. However when i export the data to access, so it can be viewed on a webpage this formatting is lost.

How best can i go about adding a zero at the beggining of all of the phone numbers in my list? Can it be done using sql or is there another function in access that can do this.

Thanks

Phone Number Input Mask

Jan 10, 2007

Ok I have an excel spreadsheet with over 6000 phone numbers that I need to import into a table. I have set up my field with an input mask to display a phone number as (xxx) xxx-xxxx. I have also set up my excel spreadsheet to have the numbers set up like 1234567890 to make it easy to throw in and let the input mask take over. My question is: I have some numbers that have an extension and are set up as 1234567890 x 102. I can take out the "x" and have all of the numbers run together, but what is the input mask syntax to have it display as say "(xxx) xxx-xxxx ext.xxx"?

Thanks:o

Queries :: Search Like And Phone Number Format

Apr 12, 2013

I have the following VBA code to search for a string

Code:
'Search by Phone
Private Sub CmdSearchPhones_Click()
Me.Refresh
strSQL = "SELECT Tbl_Contacts.ContactID, Tbl_Contacts.FName, Tbl_Contacts.LName, Tbl_Contacts.Address, Tbl_Contacts.City, Tbl_Contacts.State, Tbl_Contacts.Zip, Tbl_Contacts.HomePhone, Tbl_Contacts.WorkPhone,

[Code] .....

My issue is that this works 50/50, because phone numbers on the database are NOW being stored in this format (000) 000-0000 and previous DB phone numbers got stored as 0000000000. The above code finds previous DB phone numbers (even if we dont enter all 10 digits) without a problem but has issues with new phone numbers stored in the new format UNLESS I specify the search with (000) 000-0000 (but we want to be able to search without adding that and without typing all 10 digits - in case we forget part of the number we are looking for)

How can I tell my query to find both formats, with the (000) 000-0000 AND 0000000000 ....

Phone Number Format Problem With Mail Merge

Jul 26, 2006

Twilight Zone Phormat Problem

I have a mail merge from Access into Word that works great except for a baffling problem with phone number formatting. Instead of (987) 654-3210, on certain records the merge produces 9876543210. I cannot identify a pattern to explain it, but it is not random. Certain records consistently leave the format behind on the phone number, some on the fax number, and some on both. This problem is affecting about 1/3 of the contact records. I have the Input Mask on Phone and Fax in the table set to !(999") "000-0000;0;_. Is anyone familiar with this problem?

General :: Phone Number Changing By Itself In Table Field

Aug 14, 2013

In Access 2002, I have a Phone Number field (Text) that is meant to store (obviously enough) phone numbers. However, when I enter 2009 as the last four digits (ex. (555)-555-2009) the number is changed to (555)-555-2010. This also occurs if I enter the number directly into the table (which doesn't have an input mask). I have tested it in a new form (even without input mask), and a new table, which both result in the exact same thing.

General :: Stripping Out Unnecessary Access Functions?

Aug 3, 2014

Our Access database is getting a bit sluggish when loading/running reports. My mate said to me that the Access database that our 100+ users at work use to run reports should be "stripped back" to speed things up and to stop unnecessary actions running when they aren't needed. He pointed me in the direction of File>Options. Users don't edit data from this database, just to run preset reports. They have no editing capabilities either.

Export Fixed Length Is Stripping Leading Zeros

Jul 27, 2006

I hope someone can help with this one. After many years of using Access for ad-hoc data conversion this has beaten me.
I need to produce an ascii text file with fixed column widths, separated by commas, strange I know but the customer is always right. As it is fixed width I have inserted the commas by using a separate column for each one.
Numeric columns need to be left padded with zeros. I have constructed a query to do all the column selection and reformatting into a new table which I then export using a fixed length export file spec. Everything works fine except for 3 columns which are calculated by subtracting one column from another. I can get the data to look fine in the output table, the datatype is text, but when I export the table the leading zeros are stripped.
This is my expression: String(9-Len(FormatNumber([FULL_FARE_EQUIV]-[TAX_EQUIV],2,0,0,0)),"0") & FormatNumber([FULL_FARE_EQUIV]-[TAX_EQUIV],2,0,0,0).
The result in the table is exactly what I want: 000200.00 but when I export it I get a left adjusted 200.00.
I've tried using format with a "000000.00" mask which gives the same results.
I've tried removing the preceding comma column and including the comma as a prefix using the format mask ",000000.00" and also by concatenation. This looks fine in the table column ,000200.00 but I get an error when I export the table which blanks the column. Error attached.

Invalid Phone Numbers

Feb 17, 2008

Hi
I am trying to run some queries on a large customer file that has very poor data - particularly in the contact number fields.

If there are more than six "1"s, "9"s, or "0"s in the number, then we are planning to treat it as an invalid number and replace it with a null.

Any ideas about how to do this?

Validating Phone Numbers

Mar 25, 2008

Hi
I am trying to work with a large table of customer data.
I know that there is a large number of invalid values.
I would like to run a make table query that would check the phone number against a table of known invalid numbers (e.g. 1234567, 11111111, 99999999, etc).
If the number exists on the invalid table, then I would like to replace it with a null value.
Regards
Noel

Phone Book Problem

Nov 23, 2004

Here is my setup:

In Acess 97 I have a single data base with 5 tables, Attorneys, Employers, Health Care Professionals and two others. All tables have exactly the same fields.

I am trying to create a “phone book” made up of all the records in the data base. The form for this phone book has only a few fields such as fname, lname, phone, address. It also has the autonumber field. The record source for the form is a Union Query. When I open the form it works well. I get lawyers, employers, doctors , etc. all in alphabetical order.


Here is my problem:


I have a command button labeled “View Record.” I want to be able to click on this and have it find the record in its original table and open the form for that table so the record can be modified (on exiting the record I have it requery so the phone book is updated).

I can only get this to work with one table at a time, that is, the table that is named in the event procedure code. So if I am in, say, an Attorney record and tblAttoney is named in the event procedure code, all works well. But if I am in, say, an Employer record I get a blank Attorney form opened.


How can I get it to trace the autonumber to the proper table and open the record . I assume that the autonumbers are unique ACROSS all five tables since they are in the same database.


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

How To Import Phone Numbers In Access Database

Oct 31, 2012

I imported an Office 2010 excel file into Access 2010. All the headers match.

All the data transfered, but the phone numbers.

In Design View, the phone numbers are listed as numbers, not text.

Then I tried to copy the two columns from Excel and past into the two columns in the database. No go. It did create a new table called Paste Errors.

How do I move that into the Table that I first created?

I need to know how to get the phone numbers in their because I need to import several other excel files into this table.

Looking For Free/shareware PDA And Cell Phone Tracking Database

Nov 13, 2005

Hi,

I have a list of 500 PDA users, spread over 7 offices.
I want to keep an eye on what happens with the devices and their SIM-cards. As they are often swapped between offices and SIM-cards get lost.
I am pretty sure that I don't have to re-invent the wheel.
Do you have any idea of a free/shareware tracking tool for PDA's and cell phones ?

Thanks in advance !

RecordsetClone Problem On Northwind's Customer Phone List

Feb 16, 2006

When attempting to select a letter in a form copied from the Northwind's Customer Phone List Form, I am now getting an error message that says "The object doesn't contain the Automation object "RecordsetClone'".
I never had that problem before.
Appears to be something in the Option Group that has gone awry, but I cannot access the Visual Basics behind the Macro.
Is there a way to suppress this message? It does not appear to be a problem in bringing up the sought after page.
