Property Value Is Too Large. (Error 3309)

Jul 11, 2005

I have developed a Tax Assessment solution using Access 2003, I already have in excess of 150k records, I have 7 tables; 55 queries; 30 forms.

My main table "Transact" has over 175 fields (yep I know its large, but I need all these fields and dont want to create 100's of tables). Since last week I cannot save any definition changes to my table, I keep receiving error 3309. I have searched all discussion groups but cannot find any decent solution.
1. I have not changed the index's, of no duplicates
2. I do not have more than 255 columns in table
3. I have increased the maxlocks substantially
4. run a compact & repair succesfully

What else can I try, as mentioend I am reluctant to split Transact into smaller tables.
Regards

Tables :: Adding Description To A Field - Property Value Is Too Large Error Message

Oct 18, 2012

I keep getting the "Property Value is too large" when I add a description to a field in an existing table.

The same error was resolved on another table by cutting four fields then saving then pasting them back into the table and saving again.

I tried importing the entire DB into a new file, this I still get the error message "Property Value is too large" ...

Error 3309

Apr 22, 2005

I am putting a validation rule in my table that is In (0,1,2,3,888) or is null, with the field size as long integer. This is changed from In (0,1,2,3) or is null, which works fine. I keep getting the message Property size is too large (error 3309). Can anyone help?

Jul 17, 2007

I'd like to create a table with 240 fields. I know that the max is 255, however, I'm getting a message "property value too large" after I've created 114. Any ideas? All the number fields are byte size. Thanks!

Property Value Is Too Large

Nov 14, 2005

I guess I have too many columns in my database and I'm getting the error message "Property value is too large" when trying to open the database table. When I was using Access 2000, I was still able to open the database but using Access 2003, the database will not open. Is there a way around this so I can open the table to fix it?

Records To Large Error

Aug 19, 2004

I am using MS Access(2000) as a front end to a MS SQL2000 DB. I set up a table link to one of the tables in the SQL server. The table I am linking to has 242 Fields in it. The table shows 21888 rows of data.

In Access, when I set the record source in a Form to this linked table and go to run (Form) view, I get a "Record to Large" error.

In the SQL table - there is one varchar field that is 17 in length. There are about 5 char fields and the rest are numeric or date.

My questions are:
What is causing this error?
What would be a good work around or other possible solutions?

Thanks.

Save Error In Large Table

Jan 18, 2005

I have a table with 140 fields (I know, this is too many). I have a date field that intermittently will not allow data to be entered. There is a pattern to the data it will not accept, but it seems to only occur in certain records and what it will or will not allow seems different in each case. The error I get when I try to save a record is: The search key was not found in any record. I've isolated the error to the level of the table. Have tried compact/repair, removing the index on the field, deleting and recreating the field. Nothing works. Help! :confused:

Large Query Aggregate Function Error

Sep 15, 2006

Hi guys,

I am completely at a lose here. I have a LARGE sql query that was written before my time and how have the task of customizing it a little. It will run perfectly in Advisor Office (the program it was written for which uses access as the back end db). But if i try and create a query in access directly i get the following error:

You tried to execute a query that does not include the specified expression 'IIF (CommnPremiums.Type IN (1, 2), IIF (CommnEntries.Type IN (1, 4), 'Non Indemnity', IIF (CommnEntries.Type IN (2, 6), 'Indemnity', IIF (CommnEntries.Type = 3, 'Renewal', IIF (CommnEntries.Type = 5, 'Trail', ' ')))),
IIF (CommnPremiums.Type = 3, 'Initial', IIF (CommnPremiums.Type =' as part of an aggregate function

the full IIF statement that is causing it to fail is:

IIF (CommnPremiums.Type IN (1, 2), IIF (CommnEntries.Type IN (1, 4), 'Non Indemnity', IIF (CommnEntries.Type IN (2, 6), 'Indemnity', IIF (CommnEntries.Type = 3, 'Renewal', IIF (CommnEntries.Type = 5, 'Trail', ' ')))),

If I changed the IIF statement to:

'X' as commisiontype

it all works great but i need this information and its driving me mad. I can not see why it doesnt work within Access.

Any and All help would be great.

thx

I have attached the FULL sql query if you want to look at it all.. it hurts my head to read it all ;)

RecordsetClone Property Error

Feb 26, 2006

Having difficulty with executing the Recordsetclone property of my form.

Recordsource for 'frm_event' is based on a table, tbl_events.

On the Form's 'OnCurrent' event, I make a call to the function 'DisableEnable([Form])':

Public Function DisableEnable(frm As Form)
Dim rstClone As Recordset
Set rstClone = frm.RecordsetClone

Getting a 'Type mismatch' error when I try to create the RecordsetClone.

This is my first attempt at working with the RecordsetClone property.

Any help or guidance would be appreciated!

Help.. I Got This Error: "an Expression That Has An Invalid Reference To The Property

Sep 1, 2005

I have three forms that are related to each other. When i click on a button on the second form I get this error: an expression that has an invalid reference to the property form/report. But why do I get this error??

At the third form I have two sub forms.This code are in the first sub form: Segment_subform.
Sub Form_Current()

Dim ParentDocName As String

On Error Resume Next
ParentDocName = Me.Parent.Name

If Err <> 0 Then
GoTo Form_Current_Exit
Else
On Error GoTo Form_Current_Err
Me.Parent![Blokk_Subform].Form.Requery
End If

I think it's something wrong with
Me.Parent![Blokk_Subform].Form.Requery. It doesn't recognize blokk_Subform.

Somebody knows..???? Please help me....

The Notorious Error Message: Can't Set Value To NULL When CheckBox Property = FALSE.

Sep 12, 2005

Hi,

My problem is this: Whenever I enter something into the form other than first choosing the date from the DateTimePicker's drop-down list, I get the notorious error message: Can't set value to NULL when CheckBox property = FALSE.

What I can conclude is that the DateTimePicker can seemingly not return a null value to the database. A possible solution was given at this site: http://www.dotnet247.com/247reference/msgs/54/270422.aspx

I however, have no idea how to apply this to my form.

Can anyone help?

Thanks ahead!

Forms :: Expression On Click - Event Property Setting Produces Error

Nov 24, 2014

Code:

The expression On Click you entered as the event property setting produced the following error: Procedure declaration does not match description of event or procedure having the same name

Now this is the error message that I am constantly getting from any command button I hit on a certain form. Here is the code of the form.

Option Compare Database
Option Explicit
Public inputCSV As String, ORG As String

Private Sub CopyToTableBt_Click()
Debug.Print "Sub Execute calling ImportCSVForConfederation inputCSV="; inputCSV; " ORG="; ORG
ImportCSVForConfederation Me.CSVs, ORG

[Code] ....

I changed the names of the buttons, reconstructed the code under those names, went to the modules and changed names, made sure that a sub o function name is not duplicated in the project... But helas the error is still there. It used to work and suddenly does not work.

One Large Table? Or Two Different Ones?

Jan 14, 2007

I have two datasets that I am using. They start off with similar information: sitename, siteprovince, sitecoordinates. They also have 5 more fields that have the same type of information. After that there are about 10 more fields with no overlap.

In the original dBase program they came from they were treated as one dataset.

The current structure I am using is Company, CompanyContact, Transaction, SiteDetails (the dataset I am asking about).

Is it better design to breakup the SiteDetails into SiteTypeA and SiteTypeB? I have everything working in one table, but I thought it might be more effecient to have two.

How Large Can A Query Be?

Dec 19, 2005

I am currently operating queries in my A2K DB that are 35458 characters (~11 full sheets of A4 paper with 12pt).

It takes roughly � second for the form to load due to the heavy query that is also calling functions (calc'd fields) from within, but it works fine.

Are there any problems in this?

I think I heard somewhere that queries have a max length of about 2000 characters or so ... :o

Very Large Database, Not Working

Jun 25, 2005

Hi
Many thanxs for replies, Like the idea of compacting.
We are traveling down the path of setting up a delete query.
This will hopefully delete the records but not the structure.
We are networked and a computer Warp2, writes data at Midnight to the sever, and then we use access on Windows NT to view the data.

We can then compact to maintain the database and not allow it to grow to 1.6 GB again.

Any ideas on the delete query thingy would be greatly appreciated.
:cool:
Many thanks for reading this post from a new starter.

Large Scale Corruption!

Jul 12, 2005

Hi all, apologies for the long post but this is a long nightmare!

Using A2k on Win2k...Due to roll out a DB today, just made my final tweaks and decided to compact/backup as have done many times before. It's not a split DB but it is secure so I copied the mdw onto my desktop and accessed it using a special compact shortcut which points to the desktop copy DB not the one on the network. When I compacted though Access went about it's business for a while and then threw up the dreaded "Network connection may be Lost" error message (roughly translates as "your database is nicely corrupt now") which I have had in the past when I tried to compact on the network. I've never had this error before compacting locally but anyway I tried again and same error message. I tried opening some forms and stuff and sure enought the DB was corrupt. No probs I thought, I can just go back to the original and start the process again. I used the normal shorcut to open the original DB just to check everything was ok and the same error message appeared with same problems. Minor panic ensued and I thought i'd got the shortcuts mixed up or something... I hadn't, Both DB's were affected.

Next option. Create a new DB and import all the objects. I did that and re-set all the permissions and the "Network Connection Lost" message dissapeared but some really strange things were happening. Forms opened but the buttons on them would do nothing. Then the forms Close button didn't work and the database wouldn't close.

I forced my way out of the DB and re-started my machine. Couldn't even log in to windows. Now at another machine and can log in to windows but DB is still having same problems. My instict tells me that the problem is something to do with the workgroup file becuase how else could compacting a copy corrupt the original? The only common link is the mdw.

Should I re-create the mdw and then try opening/importing the DB objects again? Or is there any way I can un-secure the DB and then re-secure it later?

Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Thanks, Tom

Large Database Query

Jun 1, 2006

Hi,

I am currently using a large Access 2002 database in order to generate various reports.

My two main tables are despatches and returns from which they hold around 1,200,000 records and 100,000 records respectively.

The problem I have is that the reports use various expressions within various queries to generate a single result (percentages per channel etc.)
This is obviously very time consuming and it may take up to around 10 to 15 minutes to get a result from a chain of around 5 queries.

Can anyone suggest alternative methods to generate similar results in quicker time?
(Please note that the tables can not be downsized and records can not be archived)

Many thanks
:)

Large Database Problems

Dec 10, 2006

Hi All, please forgive me if I am in the wrong forum.

I have a pretty good size (~6400 table and 700 Mb) single user application. It runs on XP home with office 2000.

It is a financial application (stocks and mutual funds). Each symbol has it's own table. The app ran fine when we were monitoring about 1800 symbols. Now that we are up to 3200, I am getting some odd messages from Access. It can't find tables and also says that tables are opened exclusively by other processes.

Although I do not use explicit transactions, it is like I need a "commit" or refresh of the user table catalog.

Each table has 312 rows (52 weeks / year * 6 years of historical data). So, for half the tables (3200) I do 312 Inserts ("Insert into tablename (col1, col2, etc) values (val1, val2, etc)".

Is there a transaction log that needs clearing? Is there a setting in Access that I need to change?

Any thoughts on my situation?

Thanks in advance

Code Too Large For Procedure

Mar 8, 2006

I have a large search form, in which I am building a query in the code.

I went to compile the code, and was suprised to receive the error "Code too long for procedure". I had no idea there was a limit, but now I know.

So, I believe I will have to break this code up into chunks, stored on at least one if not more code modules, and call the functions.

To do this, I would have to pass the values entered into the form, to the code module. Build that portion of the query Where Clause, and then return that string value back to the code on the Search form.

Has anyone attempted this before? If so, could you give me a small example of how to pass a value from a form, to a code module, process it on the code module, then pass a resulting value from the code module back to the code in the form.

Thank you for your time!
