I'm currently using access to try and link together a number of different databases into one. These databases are exported from an internal system we use and outputs in Excel format.
When these export there is one large database which has about 25 columns and about 3000 rows. The other information that exports are much smaller databases which link to the rows of information in the larger database and for a mail merge to work I need them all to be merged in single rows.
I've linked the main database with all of the separate smaller databases in Access so that I can run the query to combine them all together. However, when I try and run this query or view it Access appears to be loading but never does actually load. I assume it's timing out. I left it running overnight and the problem still persisted.
I assume it's a RAM issue, or maybe disk space or hard drive. The file size of the Access project is about 17mb, so not ridiculously big, but the computer I am using is quite outdated. Is the query likely to work with a better computer, or does Access have certain limitations for larger queries? With all the rows and columns merged with the separate database there is likely to be 3000 rows and about 100 columns. Is this too large for Access to run?
I have created a form with a list view (active-x) to be able to control colors, etc in a list.
When I open my form, it is already information (three rows) in the list view. This despite the fact that I have shut down the access application and even shifted the database to another computer.
I can of course delete the elements with ListItems.Clear when I open the form, but I'd rather like that they did not show up at all.
Where these "default-elements" are stored, so I can remove them from the list view once and for all?
When you open a form in datasheet view, the default ribbon is of course the "Datasheet" tab. I would rather have the "Home" tab ribbon open up, because I have one field in this form set up as hyperlinks to open another form, so the filter and search buttons would be more useful to the user. I'd rather not go to the trouble to create a custom ribbon, so is there anyway to set the default ribbon tab to "Home" when you load the form? There is a ribbon property for the form, but I don't know the reference name for the tab.
Why the ability to view the properties of an object within a form is not available when you double click on it in design view?
I was happily working away double clicking on a command button to edit some code when for some reason the next time I tried to edit it did not open up for me.
I was unable to access it even by right clicking on the object & selecting properties as that also appears to be disabled, not greyed out or anything but just does nothing when selected.
Have I inadvertently changed a setting somewhere that prevents the properties from being displayed?
I have a query which pulls together several other queries. It works fine in Access but I also need it to work on a MS SQL server.
the SQL is as follows;
SELECT Client.ClientName, Entity.EntityName, IIf([101].[ProductID] IS NULL, [-], [X]) AS TA, IIf([301].[ProductID] IS NULL, [-], [X]) AS TR, IIf([302].[ProductID] IS NULL, [-], [X]) AS CU, IIf([304].[ProductID] IS NULL, [-], [X]) AS TC, IIf([502].[ProductID] IS NULL, [-], [X]) AS FA, IIf([503].[ProductID] IS NULL, [-], [X]) AS MO FROM Client LEFT JOIN Entity ON Client.ClientID = Entity.ClientID LEFT JOIN VIEW_PROD301 AS 301 ON Entity.EntityID = [301].EntityID LEFT JOIN VIEW_PROD302 AS 302 ON Entity.EntityID = [302].EntityID LEFT JOIN VIEW_PROD304 AS 304 ON Entity.EntityID = [304].EntityID LEFT JOIN VIEW_PROD502 AS 502 ON Entity.EntityID = [502].EntityID LEFT JOIN VIEW_PROD503 AS 503 ON Entity.EntityID = [503].EntityID LEFT JOIN VIEW_PROD101 AS 101 ON Entity.EntityID = [101].EntityID;
I am working in MS Access 2000. I have a query that is returning a table with various types of data. The problem is I can't seem to find anywhere in the Access GUI that will show me the data types of columns it has returned so I can't manually create a table to hold the values returned by query. Question is two fold:
1. Is there a way in Access SQL to import data returned from a query into a table that is not yet defined. Some like this: a. Create a table that has a primary key but doesn't yet know the number of columns and/or data types of those columns. b. Import the data from a query into this table and have it create the columns and copy the data types and populate the table while also numbering each row by primary key.
or 2. Is there a way to find out what the data types are for a table returned by a query in MS Access. I have checked the properites of the query and have been up and down the gui looking but I can't find a way while looking at the data returned by a query to explicitely see the data type (i.e., number, Date/Time, etc..) used by each column.
My issue is that one of my queries can be run, opened in SQL view, but not opened in design view. When I attempt to view in design view, Access freezes and I am forced to close the program. My database is split, FE on my local, BE on another computer on my LAN.
Below is the SQL, I tried to just copy and paste this code into a new query and I encountered the same issue.
trying to create an update query to Budget table using the Access Design View:
Field: PctSls (in tblBudget) Update to: [Expense] / [Sales]. The update query always returns 0. However, if I create a Select query using the same calculation, the correct results is displayed. PctSls is defined in the Budget table.
I haven't worked with Access (2003) for several years but this seems too simple to be causing me such frustration. (Was only a casual user even then).
I have 1900+ records, of where each record is represents a PDF Document in my folders.Each document in my folders is named in the same format "2014-001a" for example. This is the combination of two fields in my Access Database - Document Number and Current Revision.
I am looking for some Macro/VBA where I can put the same command on every records form, that will then recognise the Document Number and Current Revision of that record, and then "On Click" able to directly load up that Pdf.
Sorry if this is a really dumb question - I have just started using Access and I couldn't find the answer to this doing a forum search.
I have made a database consisting of a table and a form. All I want to do is get the form to appear automatically when the database is opened. I am using Access 2007.
Hi All I hope someone in this forum can help me with this databse issue: I want to load text file to .mdb MS access file. I understand that BULK INSERT is possible only when using SQL Server database - not MS Access like I do. Can someone advice what can be done ? Can you think of an alternate solution, which is also effective (not inserting each record one by one) ? BTW - I'm using ADO on visual studio 6 in order to access the database (not ADO.NET).
Hi guys. I have some forms in my access database and i want load one of it automatically when i double click on my access.mdb . I be happy if some one teach me how i can do that.Thanks
I have a form design where to enter a new "system" (what we call a new group of members) you have to specify the representative (the member that will represent the system).
If the system is new AND the representative is new, then both need to be entered. Typically this will be done through the "New System" form that has a combo box for you to choose the representative (but the representative won't be there!). If the representative is new as well, then the user clicks "Add New Rep" which is located next to the combo box.
This is where things get tricky, I'd like to use only 1 form to load a new rep. My idea was to use an openarg on the docmd.openform method that specifies what the control should be.
That is the code that is called when the user click "Add new rep" and in the on load event I have this code:
Code: 'Use this version if the ID is text Dim x As Variant Dim strControl As String Dim strID As Long 'If parameters exist, use them
[Code] ....
My goal was to pass the value to the combobox and turn it off, that way they can't change anything about it. This was nice because if the openargs is null (there were none passed) then the combo box would be enabled and the user could select the school that way.
But this doesn't work, for some reason, the combo box has NOTHING done to it (I have the control name correct).
Is this due to the way comboboxes work? Or am I missing something?
I should point out that the on-load event was not my idea, I found that online but makes perfect sense. I was trying something similar but was trying to use global variables because I wasn't aware that OpenArgs was a valid control!
In my Access app, I need to be able to retrieve a specific email by date/time, then take the Subject, the Date received and body of that email and save it to a column in a table.how to do this in Access VBA?
I have a report that has a link to open a a form "ProjectDetailsActive" to a specific record ID from the report. It works.
I have 3 subsets of users who have restricted access to the form "Project Details Active". By that I mean that when they open this form, it hides and rearranges some tabs, and disables certain controls. If a user from one of these 3 subsets tries to open the link to a specific record in the form, it does not work. The form opens to the first record available instead of the selected record. This is only a problem for these 3 user groups. For users who do not fall into these 3 groups, the filter works.
This is the only code in the form that does the restriction, but I don't know where the process is going wrong.
Code: Private Sub Form_Current() LoadBudgetPage CancelRsn.Enabled = False 'detect number of line items for current project Me.lblOrderCount.Caption = GetNumRecords & " line items for this project."
I have an Access 2010 database that I have split. In the database I have a couple tables, forms and two reports. I have entered some data into one of the tables, but when I go to edit the data in the form the next time, there is no data (though I have verified that there is data in the table). Also, there are two reports that can pull the data without any problem.
I know how to filter my form so I get the records from a certain query by clicking Advanced>Filter by Form>Load From Query>Selecting the query I want> Toggle filter. What I want is a button that will do this just by clicking it. By default I have set my form to load a blank record. I also have a button to filter by an exact ID number. What I can't figure out is how to write the expression/macro to acheive this on my "Unprocessed button". The red button is the one I need to apply my query to.
I'm looking for a keyboard shortcut to expand the columns in "design view" of a query.
What I mean by this is rather than selecting all of the columns and double clicking to see the entire text, I'd like to be able to a shortcut.
The entire process as I see it involves 3 steps so I will need thesolution to the 3rd step.
(1) [ctrl+spacebar] to select initial column (2) [shift+arrows] to select all of the columns I need (3) [keyboard shortcut] will expand all of the columns "field" names to the size of the column heading
Alternatively, if you know of a shortcut that will expand the columns without having to select them first I'll take it!!
Current situation is that I have this form with a chart.
Row Source :
Code: SELECT PolyWrongRegInsCount.[INSTITUTION], PolyWrongRegInsCount.[NO_OF_GROUP] FROM PolyWrongRegInsCount;
PolyWrongRegInsCount; <- This table is one of the queries that I created.However, the data is manually added. I want to get the data from excel spreadsheet. And load into my queries
I have a form which I want to load before it starts up a vba function. How can I do that? Right now I use form_load(), but the problem is that, it loads the msgbox before loading form.
Code: rivate Sub Form_Load() Dim sFolderSpec As String, sCSVSource As String, dFileDate As Date sCSVSource = "MDM_Syndicator.csv"
I was asked to create an Access db with search functionality in a form and have done so, now I have come across a problem………..
The team I have created this for do not have Access installed on their pc’s and this is and archive search db that I have created so will only be using it very rarely!! As a result I wondered if there is a free viewer or anything I can do to get them to use this db that I have created without having to purchase 12 licenses for an application that will rarely be used!
My boss wanted me to develop a way for a department to do a monthly report from Access. In the beginning, I set up a login for the user, then the user would input a start date and an end date to retreive the report. However, I just put part of the report up and will need to put what ever information they needed in the report. So, I did all the queries in Access and it produces correct result. Now I have to some how put it in ASP file including all those queries but dont know exactly how I would do it since I would not have a name for each query that I did in Access. Plus, in Access I used a fix date range to check the query and it works. So, I replaced 8/1/2005 with 'txtStartDate' and replaced 8/31/2005 with 'txtEndDate' and it works for one of the query. Now I when I looked at the rest of the queries I made in Access I would have to make some adjustment including the one that calculate the percentage from 2 queries. Below are several queries I made in Access but will need to somehow incroporate in ASP file.
(I replaced 8/1/2005 with 'txtStartDate' and 8/31/2005 with 'txtEndDate' in ASP file and it works. Need to do that with the rest of the queries) Query1 (count number of record in group A) Code:SELECT tblNatureOfCall.NatureDesc, SUM(IIf([dateofcall]>=#8/1/2005# And [dateofcall]<=#8/31/2005#,1,0)) AS CountofLogsFROM tblNatureOfCall LEFT JOIN tblCallLog ON tblNatureOfCall.ID=tblCallLog.NatureOfCallIDGROUP BY tblNatureOfCall.NatureDesc;
Query1Total (Sum of count number of record of Query1 group) Code:SELECT Sum(IIf([dateofcall]>=#8/1/2005# And [dateofcall]<=#8/31/2005#,1,0)) AS CountOfDispositionOfPatientID, tblDispositionOfPatient.DispositionFROM tblDispositionOfPatient INNER JOIN tblCallLog ON tblDispositionOfPatient.ID=tblCallLog.DispositionO fPatientIDWHERE tblDispositionOfPatient.Disposition="TRANS"GROUP BY tblDispositionOfPatient.Disposition;
Query1Percent (This find the % from Query1 and Query1Total. Need a code to format in % form as 34.00 not .3400) Code:SELECT (SUM(IIf([dateofcall]>=#8/1/2005# And [dateofcall]<=#8/31/2005#,1,0)))/Total AS Expr1FROM tblNatureOfCall LEFT JOIN tblCallLog ON tblNatureOfCall.ID=tblCallLog.NatureOfCallIDGROUP BY tblNatureOfCall.NatureDesc;
Query1TotalPercent (This find the percent of a group out of the total of 2 groups) Code:SELECT [Query1Total]![CountOfDispositionOfPatientID]/[TotalQuery]![Total] AS Expr1FROM TotalQuery, Query1Total;
Query2 (count number of record in Group B) Code:SELECT Sum(IIf([dateofcall]>=#8/1/2005# And [dateofcall]<=#8/31/2005#,1,0)) AS CountOfDispositionOfPatientID, tblDispositionOfPatient.DispositionFROM tblDispositionOfPatient LEFT JOIN tblCallLog ON tblDispositionOfPatient.ID=tblCallLog.DispositionO fPatientIDWHERE tblDispositionOfPatient.Disposition<>"TRANS"GROUP BY tblDispositionOfPatient.Disposition;
Query2Total (Sum of count number of record in Group B) Code:SELECT Sum(Query2.CountOfDispositionOfPatientID) AS PatientIDTotalFROM Query2;
Query3 (count number of record of group C) Code:SELECT Sum(IIf([dateofcall]>=#8/1/2005# And [dateofcall]<=#8/31/2005#,1,0)) AS CountOfPatientDestinationID, tblHospital.HospitalNameFROM tblHospital LEFT JOIN tblCallLog ON (tblHospital.ID = tblCallLog.PatientDestinationID) AND (tblHospital.ID = tblCallLog.NotifyHospitalID)WHERE tblHospital.HospitalName <> "HCO"GROUP BY tblHospital.HospitalName;
TotalQuery (sum of Query1 count number of record and Query2 count number of records) Code:SELECT Sum(IIf([dateofcall]>=#8/1/2005# And [dateofcall]<=#8/31/2005#,1,0)) AS TotalFROM tblNatureOfCall LEFT JOIN tblCallLog ON tblNatureOfCall.ID=tblCallLog.NatureOfCallID;
These are the queries done in Access but will need to incroporate in ASP. Query1 is already in ASP, just need to add the rest of the queries. Dont know how I would do it.
